Today’s Scripture
John 16:31-33
“Do you now believe?” Jesus replied. “A time is coming and in fact has come when you will be scattered, each to your own home. You will leave me all alone. Yet I am not alone, for my Father is with me. “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”
Thoughts…
These are some of my favorite verses in John. ‘I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” These are go to verses. They instill peace, when Satan is trying to rattle you and make you feel all alone. You Are Never Alone!
Have you ever written on a chalkboard or whiteboard. You erase it but it never quite erases totally. OK, unless you go get water or cleaning fluid, but even then it can smudge all over. So work with me here. Satan is like that old eraser. He tries to rub everything out in your life. He tries to make you feel all alone. However, when you take a moment and really look at the board, you can still see what you wrote. It is still there. No matter how much Satan tries to erase everything good in your life and make you feel all alone, he can’t. You Are Not Alone. Look hard!
Jesus overcame the world. He wrote His love and peace on your heart. Satan cannot erase that and he certainly cannot erase Jesus.
