Today's Scripture:
[27] However, we know where this Man is from; but when the Christ comes, no one knows where He is from.” [28] Then Jesus cried out, as He taught in the temple, saying, “You both know Me, and you know where I am from; and I have not come of Myself, but He who sent Me is true, whom you do not know. [29] But I know Him, for I am from Him, and He sent Me.”
John 7:27-29
Inspiration:
Some of the Jews of Jesus' day thought they had good reasons for rejecting Him. They thought they knew he was from Nazareth and the mere natural son of Mary and Joseph. The Bible prophesied the Messiah would be born in Bethlehem of Judah, and though Jesus had been, they did not know it. He came from the Father, but they truly in that regard "did not know from where he came. "
Prayer:
We know, O Lord, that many men will find some excuse to not believe in you. We know that Satan blinds the minds of those who believe not. And we know that you reveal yourself to your people. Help us to reason from the Scriptures and seek to convince men of your Gospel, but let us not trust in our ability to argue well but in your Spirit revealing Christ to men's hearts and minds. Amen.
