SAN JUAN 5:35

At the core of it, discipleship is taking care of and tending all the things Jesus commanded us. Yet how can we know what to do if we don't know His words? That is why we're exploring all of Jesus' words across the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. Each day includes a Bible narration from Ps Mark Varughese of the words of Jesus. NOTE: the translation used in the narration is the New King James Version.

There are times we look back and remember seasons when hearing God felt easy and our passion for Him was strong. Those memories become our “once upon a time” moments. This devotional plan invites you to reflect on those seasons, not with regret, but with renewed hope. Through simple, Scripture-centered guidance, you’ll explore what may have changed in your walk and how God invites you to return to deeper fellowship with Him. Discover that the God who met you then is still with you now—ready to restore and revive your journey.

We have never seen our own face. We only see our reflection or a picture image of ourselves. The mirror is used to reflect our face back to us. If the mirror is clean, we get a clean image and can see if things need to be cleaned up. If the mirror is stained, the reflection is tainted. In Plan 5 we see how we are called to reflect God’s Glory. When people see me, do they see an accurate reflection of Jesus?

Every Christian is called to live by God’s Word and walk in his Spirit. In the pages of the Bible, God reveals his good heart to us, and through the Holy Spirit, he gives us his very presence so we never have to walk alone. In this seven-day reading plan, John Greco invites you to draw near to the Lord as you encounter the sword and the Spirit.
