Praying thro 1 John (Sep 8)

    Walking In the Light & Love
    (Prayer Walk thro 1 John 1-3)

    The apostle John, who is enjoying
    a delightful fellowship with God,
    earnestly desires that his spiritual
    children enjoy that same fellowship
    and writes I John telling them how:
    God is Light and therefore to
    engage in fellowship with Him
    means walking in the light of
    His commandments. God is love,
    and thus His children must walk
    in love. And God is life, and those
    who desire fellowship with Him
    must possess the spiritual life,
    which begins with spiritual birth
    through faith in Jesus Christ.

    Lord, thank you through apostle
    John You reveal the vital aspects
    of our faith to give us confidence.
    In our dark world, You God is light.
    In the cold world, You bring the
    warm of love. And in our dying
    world, You bring life. Thank you
    that when we lack confidence,
    these truths bring us certainty.
    Help us to confess sins readily;
    help us to love one another; and
    help us respond to Yr Love. Amen

We have been Chronologically
covering the Bible phase by phase.
We start the Gospels, with Jesus
presented as the Perfect Servant,
Savior of the world, Messianic King
and the Son of God, before Acts
chronicles Growth of the Church.
Then Paul urges the Galatians to
live by Faith alone, Thessalonians
to Serve ahead of Second Coming,
to Corinthians to Live Rightly,
to Romans Justification by Faith,
Ephesians living as Body of Christ
to Colossians Doctrinal Purity and
to Philippians Unity of the Spirit;
before Paul’s pastoral letters and
then pursing maturity in Hebrews,
practical Christianity in James and
Maturing thro tough times in 1/2Pet.

Continuing into 1 John, the beloved
apostle wrote the letter to help his
brothers in their walk with God.
He wants them to be grounded
in assurance of their salvation,
experiencing victory over sin and
the joy of the Christian life. He
reminds readers that belief should
be based on Christ’s incarnation
and that every believer has
responsibility to walk like Christ.
