Jesus: The Son of the Father
Grace, mercy, and peace will be with you
and from the Lord Jesus Christ,
Jesus is the Son of the Father, sent by the Father to save a sinful world. He is the constant object of the Father’s love (John 5:19-20). The Father and the Son are one in nature (John 10:30), but they are separate Persons. They talk to each other, love each other and work together to save the world.
O Son of God, I magnify You for Your power and love. I know You can do all things, so work in my life today.
The Son of the Father wants you to know Him and honor Him, as He honors the Father. Those who do not honor the Son offend the Father (John 5:23). Just as the Father raised the dead, so Jesus gives spiritual life to those who believe in Him (John 5:21). Those who are spiritually dead in sin can have eternal life through the words of the Son (John 5:24), and believers who have physically died will be raised to resurrection life in the future through the words of the Son (John 5:25-28). The Father has given the Son the power to give life to all who believe and the authority to judge sinners at the end of the age (John 5:27).
Jesus, I want Your power in my life today. I want Your words to give me strength and optimism to meet the challenges I face. I want Your indwelling presence to encourage me for all I do. Amen.
The Son of the Father can give energy to your Christian life.
