1 යොහන් 1:7 සම්බන්ධව නිදහස් කියවීමේ සැලසුම් සහ පූජනීයත්වය

Over the next 15 days, read through John’s letter to the church in 1 John alongside explanatory passages adapted from ESV Expository Commentary: Hebrews–Revelation (Volume 12).

We all have a tendency to hate on others. We can be pretty quick to judge. The problem? We were made for a different kind of world—a world designed for love, not hate. In this 15-day devotional, we’ll explore what it looks like to lead with love rather than judgement and make a move toward landing on the right side of the line.

The purpose of this plan is to reconnect you with your heavenly Father, and through that connection restore you to a full life with him. This plan is not filled with a series of to-dos, but invitations to encounter God in everyday life. Use this plan three times a week to explore what it looks like to establish rhythms and practices to step into a growing relationship with God.

The Apostle John had one clear message in his letters: Love one another. In the letters of 1, 2, and 3 John, the beloved disciple encouraged followers of Christ to love God by following His commands, and to love and honor fellow believers. John’s message is incredibly relevant to us today, offering insight to us as we seek to live like Jesus lived and love like Jesus loved.

Jesus-Style Leadership (JSL) offers 80 biblical devotions designed to help young Christian leaders develop a biblical way of leadership that will ensure their leadership calling and gifting is greatly used by God in his kingdom. JSL is all about leading Jesus' way. This first Plan focuses on God's call to leadership and the impact of God's grace on leadership.

Deeper into Scripture is a methodology of scripture reading that instructs, encourages and equips people to read God’s Word daily and deeply. We have created a unique four-fold method of bible reading that directs the individual to read a short passage of scripture four times. Each reading is done with a different question, instruction or objective to be considered. This repetitive reading and instruction takes us deeply into the Word of God and draws us closer to Him.

Life is a series of choices, each determining the trajectory it will take. Will we choose life, by allowing our hearts to be changed by God's Word? Or will we default to our human nature, a passive choice leading to death?

What an incredible journey these twenty-one days will be as we fast, pray, and grow together. Fasting has a way of bringing every part of your life into focus in ways nothing else can do. If you will allow your moments of hunger and cravings to serve as reminders to stop and pray, you will find a closeness with your Heavenly Father like you have never known.

The first time an important word or phrase is mentioned in Scripture is significant. In this devotional written by members of Gateway Church's pastoral staff, we’ll unpack the special meaning behind 21 first mentions and how these foundational words and phrases lead to a richer understanding of the Bible.

This Reading Plan goes through the first chapter of 1 Peter. The apostle Peter is writing to Christians who are facing hard times, and exhorts them to stand firm in the true grace of God. Peter gives valuable advice on how to do this in your daily life. Do read with us to profit from his teachings!

If you want to grow as a disciple of Jesus, then this Plan is for you. Join us for a verse-by-verse study through 1 John, one of the greatest examinations of love that has ever been written. With John as our guide our eyes will be opened to the truth of what it means to be loved by God and how we can share that love with others.

What if you could go from overwhelmingly insecure to completely confident because of what Christ has done for you? This plan invites readers to shed their self-doubt, silence their inner critic, and lift their eyes to heaven. Readers who often feel like they are failing or “not enough” will discover that they can trust the God who created us and has a purpose for our lives.

You are invited to participate in the Homecoming 21-day prayer and fasting devotional. Be sure to invite others to join you on this incredible journey!

This devotional focuses on the last acts and words of Jesus to His disciples in John 13-16. While John covers many themes in these chapters, one unites them all - love. Through these 21 days, may we learn to love God and people better.

In His most familiar prayer, Jesus uttered a four-word "dangerous prayer:" "Your will be done" (Matthew 6:10). It takes trust in God's goodness and faithfulness to pray for His will in our lives. I want to invite you to have the same heart and desire as Jesus and to follow His lead in these four words: "Your will be done."

Join us in this season of anticipation and Advent as we prepare for Christmas! A time to reflect and a time to hope in our Savior and King.

This devotion will take you through the entire book of 1 John. In 1 John, we see what humanity's reasonable response is to God's radical love.

Advent is a word full of anticipation, preparation, and celebration – the Latin word means “coming” or “to come.” Christ has come as a babe, is coming to each heart that invites Him, and will come again to bring you home. Our 25-day Advent plan includes short daily devotionals based on Scripture and focused on Light, Peace, and Hope. Prepare your heart for Jesus as you prepare to celebrate Christmas!

“God loves you, and He has a plan for your life.” This is a popular statement among Christians, and it is true. But God’s ways are not always easy! They may include suffering to transform us; we may go through deep valleys before reaching the heights of God’s promises. Joseph’s life story, as recorded in the book of Genesis, is a good example of this.

The world celebrates change. God celebrates consistency. Learning how to stay committed to the same Spirit, Actions, Mission, and Environment unlocks the Power of Same in our lives, and helps us establish the good habit of fulfilling Jesus’ greatest command: loving Him with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength. Every day. Again and again.

Go in-depth into one of the most famous sermons ever preached by Jesus, the Beatitudes. This passage is filled with practical and profound wisdom that every Christian can benefit from. We pray that as you take the time over the next few weeks to study these ten verses, that you would hear from the Lord and experience a deeper relationship with Him!

Daily Bible Reading is designed to facilitate consistent interaction with Scripture. It includes background information on each day’s Scripture passage and key verse for meditation, reflection questions to help you dive deeper into Scripture, and a prayer and prayer concern to help you connect to God and be a spiritual support to others. Journey with us this month as we explore the theme, “God’s Word of Love.”
