'If You Trust Me, You're Trusting God' - John 12:44-45

Jesus shouted to the crowds, "If you trust me, you are trusting not only me, but also God who sent me. For when you see me, you are seeing the one who sent me."

—John 12:44-45 NLT

Key Thought​

Want to know what God says? Listen to Jesus! Want to know how God treats people? Watch what Jesus does! Want to know what God cares about? Pay attention to what Jesus says and does! Throughout the Gospel of John, Jesus claims to speak and act as God would. In fact, Jesus claims to be one with the Father. [1] So the real choice for us is whether or not we are going to trust him with our lives.

[1] John 10:30.

Today's Prayer​

Holy and almighty God, please forgive my little faith. Please bless me as I continue to seek to know you better by reading the Gospel of John and meeting your Son Jesus there. I ask that you make yourself known to me as I seek to live for you each day. In the name of the Lord Jesus, I pray. Amen.

If you have seen Jesus then you have seen God. That is a wonderful revelation given to us by John. Even at His baptism in the Jordan River. The heavens opened and it was heard a voice coming down from the throne of God and said. This is My beloved Son. Hear ye Him.
