Different people react in different ways to the Gospel of JESUS Christ.
• Some say, “YES”
• Some say, “NO”
• Some say, “I’m kinda busy right now.”

This is your personal opportunity to ask the LORD to reveal your ‘reaction’. What do I believe concerning the message of JESUS Christ?

To apply GOD’s word, answer these personal application questions:
1. How have I seen my spiritual energy grow when I stop merely thinking about God’s will and actually act on it?

2. Who in my life needs a gentle, indirect invitation (“Come and see”), and who needs a more direct word of encouragement or truth?

3. How does remembering that Jesus is the Savior for all people reshape the way I pray, serve, and interact with others?

4. What one change is the Holy Spirit prompting me to make this week?

GOD bless you as you reflect on & apply HIS Word in your life.

You’re invited to 'put yourself in' this well-known story. GOD is looking for the ‘real you’. HE wants to have a ‘conversation’. You might be ‘challenged’ & ‘confronted’. In response, you might want to ‘circumvent’ the direction, but know that GOD will bring ‘clarity’.

GOD is inviting us to ‘find your place in the conversation’. Watch this VIDEO by clicking on this link, https://youtu.be/J729gZv8tXc

To apply GOD’s word, answer these personal application questions:

1. Where might God be trying to get my attention right now?

2. How do I react when God pushes me to look deeper than my surface needs?

3. What habits or preferences sometimes distract me from worshiping “in spirit and truth”?

4. How has God shown Himself to me before, and how might He be doing that today?

GOD bless you as you reflect on & apply HIS Word in your life.

GOD has a specific role for each one of us. We find that role after we first ‘believe’ and decide to walk in ‘humility’. We then prioritize JESUS as – ‘first’. John-the-Baptist said (John 3:30) – “HE must increase, but I must decrease.”

Discover GOD’s role for you – as you watch the VIDEO by clicking on this link, https://youtu.be/qVyfnreOAWY

To apply GOD’s word, answer these personal application questions:

1. What “darkness” do I still prefer – old habits, attitudes, choices – that keeps me from walking openly in GOD’s light?

2. How can I practice humility in a practical way today – through serving or letting go of something I’m holding on to?

3. Verses 29-30 say that John rejoiced in JESUS’ arrival. What helps me recover joy in Christ when life feels ‘heavy’ or ‘routine’? (Hint: “He must _____, I must _____.”)

4. What specific change do I sense the Holy Spirit prompting me to make this week?

GOD bless you as you reflect on & apply HIS Word in your life.

Do I simply believe the historical facts regarding the Bible, or do I rely on the facts regarding the Lordship of JESUS CHRIST in my life?

This 2-way conversation between JESUS and a religious leader named Nicodemus gives us two unique perspectives on ‘religion’ and ‘eternal life’. Merrill Tenney said, “To belong to the heavenly kingdom, one must be born into it.” Are you born again? Are you certain that you will 'see the Kingdom of GOD?'

Watch the VIDEO by clicking on this link, https://youtu.be/6EtmlZawMwo

To apply GOD’s word, answer these personal application questions:

1. What part of “being born again” still feels mysterious or hard for me to accept?

2. What questions about faith have I been carrying quietly, like Nicodemus at night?

3. The Israelites had to look at the bronze serpent to be healed. What does it look like for me to “look to Jesus” in my daily life?

4. What part of John 3:16 feels most personal to me right now?

GOD bless you as you reflect on & apply HIS Word in your life.

There are times when we need to ‘take a stand for what is right.’
If “Zeal” is defined as ‘pure devotion to GOD’, then we are called to 1) Be Zealous for GOD; 2) Don’t be Zealous for the Law; 3) Follow JESUS’ example for Zeal.

Watch the VIDEO by clicking on this link, https://youtu.be/nreAg0xXpII

Do you have zeal for GOD? To apply GOD’s word, answer these personal application questions:

1. What areas in your life do you need to “Take a STAND”?

2. If “Zeal” is defined as: “Loving God enough to let Him shape my everyday choices,
* Do I have this “zeal for GOD”?
* If not, what is holding me back?

3. What practice could help me cultivate a cleaner, quieter, more focused heart for worship?

4. What truth from this passage do I need to carry into the next seven days?

GOD bless you as you reflect on & apply HIS Word in your life.

"If you want to get things done, go to the people who actually make things happen."

Considering the ‘cast of characters’ in our text, and the ISSUE (‘running out of wine’), we learn the importance of the SERVANTS role: ‘Quietly helping wherever I can.’ There’s a blessing in being a servant.

Watch the VIDEO by clicking on this link, https://youtu.be/GC1_orX7Cmc

To apply GOD’s word, answer these personal application questions:

1. Like JESUS directed the servants to “fill, dip, take”, what is one area in
my life where GOD might be asking me to do something, even if I don’t fully understand the outcome?

2. Where do I tend to hesitate in obedience because the instruction feels too simple, too ordinary or too inconvenient?

3. What does it say about JESUS, in that HE chose to reveal Himself only to some humble, obedient servants --- and NOT to everybody?
· Describe what JESUS’ example of humility means to you.

GOD bless you as you reflect on & apply HIS Word in your life.

‘We are all different.’ No surprise there.
But GOD is very creative in the different ways that HE calls us to follow Him.

Watch the VIDEO by clicking on this link, https://youtu.be/lw4FtIt8FIA

To help bring clarity to this text, answer these ‘personal application questions.’

1. If you are a ‘follower of JESUS CHRIST’, when was that “come and see” moment that drew you toward HIM?
• If you have never made that decision to follow JESUS, do you believe HE is inviting you right now to “come and see”, and follow Him?
• Are you willing to pray with someone right now about this?

2. Andrew didn’t preach a sermon; he simply brought his brother.
• What is one simple, natural way you could “bring someone to Jesus” this week — through kindness, prayer, or conversation?

3. How do you believe the LORD will use you in introducing others to the Gospel message? (The answer is ‘multiple choice’)
• As an Evangelist
• 1-on-1, through natural relationship
• GOD speaking prophetically through you
• Sharing, without fear of rejection

GOD bless you as you reflect on & apply HIS Word in your life.

This Bible study gives us a view – through the eyes of John the Baptist – to the introduction of The Messiah to the world.
1. “Look for this Man”
2. “I am NOT that Man”
3. “Here’s my calling”
4. “There HE is !”

To help bring clarity to this text, answer these ‘personal application questions.’

1. Like ‘John the Baptist’ in verses 15-18, where in my daily routine do I need to consciously place JESUS “above” my preferences, habits, or opinions?

2. Romans 12:3 says, “…not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think soberly…”.
• In what area(s) of your life do you need to adjust your thinking in this way?

3. John recognized JESUS CHRIST as the “Lamb of GOD who takes away the sin of the world.”
• If someone on the street asked you to describe JESUS CHRIST, what would you say?

GOD bless you as you reflect on & apply HIS Word in your life.

“As the Light of the world, JESUS is the ONE who makes clear the meaning and destiny of human existence.” (Dr. H. Halley)

This study gives us three unique views to JESUS being ‘The Light of the World.’
* Key word definitions and background

* John the Baptist, and his ‘pointing people’ to the Light (and how that applies to us)

* There are only two responses to the claim that JESUS is the Light of the World.

What is your response?
To help bring clarity to this text, answer these ‘personal application questions.’
1. If JESUS is the Light of your life, what part of your daily thinking still runs in the dark?

2. If JESUS’ light reveals your true identity as a child of God (vv. 12–13), what old label or self-description do you need to let go of this week?

3. What is one practical step you can take to walk in JESUS’ light more intentionally — whether in your habits, relationships, or daily choices?

4. Knowing that JESUS is The Light, how can we ‘emulate’ Him in our day-to-day activities?

GOD bless you as you reflect on & apply HIS Word in your life.

Launching our introduction to the Gospel of JOHN, we establish the primary theme: “JESUS is the Son of GOD”.

This study gives us three sub-themes to reasons:
* “All things were made through HIM.” (v.3)
* Comparing the Gospels – (John explains ‘spiritual meanings of specific events’)
* Understanding JESUS’ Mission (the seven - “I AM” statements)

To help bring clarity to this text, answer these ‘personal application question.’

1. What’s going on in my life where I need to remember that JESUS understands what I’m going through?

2. How does it affect your confidence in JESUS to know that He existed before anything else?

3. Where in my life do I need to slow down and actually notice that Jesus is present with me, not far off or distant?.

As we begin our walk through the Gospel of John, what part of Jesus’ character are you looking forward to see – so that you can imitate Him more fully?

GOD bless you as you reflect on & apply HIS Word in your life.
