Jesus is the way to the Father

John 14:1-14

1Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.

2In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.

3And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.

4And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.

5Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way?

6Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

7If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him.

8Philip saith unto him, Lord, show us the Father, and it sufficeth us.

9Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Show us the Father?

10Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me?

the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works.

11Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works' sake.

12Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.

13And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

14If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.

These verses are very exciting as we see Jesus continuing to instruct his disciples. Today we need this same encouragement as we struggle with life. Our hearts and minds need to remain fixed on Jesus as we believe in God. “Let not your heart be troubled.” Lean not on your own understanding.”

I know with so many having lost their homes, jobs, and much more we are tempted to question why? Perhaps you are confused as Peter, Philip, and Thomas were as they asked their questions and Jesus prepared them for the days ahead.

Folks, Jesus is the way, the truth and our light. Let us stay focused on Him knowing he is preparing a place for us that we will receive if we remain faithful unto Him. Just think he trusts you to follow Him and win the whole world to Him. That is the one thing he left us to do.

Did you know whatever is going on in your life, whether you are in a valley or on a mountain top, new doors open for you each day to share the greatest gift to mankind? Remember his name is Jesus as you travel on your journey and Jesus is the sweetest name I know.

Yes, Jesus, our Lord and Savior and soon coming King. Continue to proclaim him as you are blessed as Jesus makes a way for you. Jesus said “Ask in my name and receive of Him.” Do you believe in Him? Will you proclaim my heart is not troubled because I believe in God? Allow God to minister to you right now and provide whatsoever you need in Jesus name I pray.

Remember:

1John 1:9 “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.”
