“Now when the Lord knew how the Pharisees had heard, that Jesus made and baptized more disciples then John, (Though Jesus himself baptized not: but his disciples) He [Jesus] left Judea, and departed again into Galilee” (John 4:1-3 [1587 Geneva Version].  Father, you are not the author of confusion. Two previous verses read that Jesus baptized, yet this […]

“The Father loveth the Son, and hath given all things into his hand. He that believeth in the Son, hath everlasting life, and he that obeys not the Son, shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him” (John 3:35, 36 [1587 Geneva Version]).  Father, even Satan believes who You are but disobeyed […]

“For he [Christ] whom God hath sent, speaketh the words of God: for God giueth [gives] him not the Spirit by measure [immeasurable]” (John 3:34 [1587 Geneva Version]).  Father, Jesus has all at His request from You. He is denied nothing. Help us to better understand the power of You and Your Son as we pray. In Christ’s holy name […]

“And what he [Christ] hath seen and heard, that he testifieth [testifies]: but no man receiveth his testimony.He that hath received his testimony, hath sealed that God is true” (John 3:32, 33 [1587 Geneva Version]).  Father, Your Son knows as You know. Please help us to understand better the messages of Jesus. In Christ’s holy name we ask. […]

“He [Jesus] must increase, but I [John the Baptist] must decrease. He [Jesus] that is come from on high, is above all: he [John] that is of the earth, is of the earth, and speaketh of the earth: he that is come from heaven, is above all” (John 3:30, 31 [1587 Geneva Version]).  Father, John the Baptist had a purpose and […]

“John answered, and said, ‘A man can receive nothing, except it be given him from heaven. Ye your selves are my witnesses, that I said, I am not that Christ, but that I am sent before him. He that hath the bride, is the bridegroom: but the friend of the bridegroom which standeth and heareth him, rejoiceth […]

“Then there arose a question between John’s disciples and the Jews, about purifying. And they came unto John, and said unto him, ‘Rabbi, he that was with thee beyond Jorden, to whom thou barest witness, behold, he baptizes, and all men come to him’” (John 3:25, 26 [1587 Geneva Version]).  Father, some of us have heard […]

“John also was baptizing at Aenon near Salim, because water was plentiful there, and people were coming and being baptized (for John had not yet been put in prison)” (John 3:23, 24 [1587 Geneva Version]).  Father, You make it plain here that when one is baptized it is a dunking into the water. Thank You for […]

“After this Jesus and his disciples went into the Judean countryside, and he remained there with them and was baptizing” (John 3:22 [1587 Geneva Version]).  Father, Your Son is God come down from heaven to take away the sins of those who believe and trust in You. In Christ’s holy name we are joyful. Hallelujah~

“For every man that evil doeth [does], hateth [hates] the light, neither comes to light, least his deeds should be reproved. But he that doeth truth, comes to the light, that his deeds might be made manifest [apparent], that they are wrought [carried out] according to God” (John 3:20, 21 [1587 Geneva Version]).  Father, we long to please you in our […]
