John 6:53
53 But Jesus didn’t give an inch. “Only insofar as you eat and drink flesh and blood, the flesh and blood of the Son of Man, do you have life within you. (MSG)
Like yesterday, Today’s verse comes from John 6:25-59, Jesus the Bread of Life. As I continued To read these verses for my bible study time, I noticed when Jesus began talking to the Jews they became angry. “Then the Jews began to argue sharply among themselves, ‘How can this man give us his flesh to eat?’” (vrs 52). I can almost hear Jesus’ eyes rolling and the deep breathing right now. . .lol!
Instead of walking off or backing down it says, “But Jesus didn’t give an inch!” He continued with His message. He knew the truth and God had sent to Earth to spread the word. Jesus was and is our only way to salvation. He was not about to give up.
We have been given the same job. We know the truth and God gave us this ob. We should not give an inch either. We must stand our ground against Satan! Do not let him distract us. By the way, it is perfectly OK, to deep breathe and roll your eyes at him!
Thank You, Lord, for standing Your ground with me! ~amen
