Today’s Quote : “If a person truly loves the Lord, he will want to keep all of His teachings, not just isolated commandments. The Father loves those who are willing to obey His Son without questions or reservations. Both Father and Son are especially near to such loving and obedient hearts.” – Dr. William McDonald

 

This Week’s Memory Verse – And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If  you ask anything in My name, I will do it. – John 14:13-14

 

So?…..What’s it to me? – As a result of today’s study I will…

“Evil never surrenders its hold without a sore fight. We never pass into any spiritual inheritance through the delightful exercises of a picnic, but always through the grim contentions of the battlefield.”

Day 18 – Saturday, March 3, 2018

 

Today’s Assignment – Read John 14:12-18 and answer the following questions.

 

1. What promise does Jesus give those who believe in Him?

 

 

2. What promise does Jesus give us about praying?

 

 

3. What does the phrase “that the Father may be glorified in the Son” tell us about the type of prayers we should pray?

 

 

4. What other promise does Jesus give us regarding a “Helper/Comforter”?

 

 

5. How is this person described?

 

 

Today’s Quote: “We have no single word in our language that can express the rich, powerful meaning of “Paraclete,” the English translation of the unique title John uses for this Holy Companion. Para in the Greek means “alongside,” and the root of kletos is “to call.” So this “Helper” whom Jesus will send will be alongside the disciples as Jesus has been, “calling out” as an “encourager,” a “counselor,” an “advocate,” a “witness,” and as a “judge.” “Paraclete” means all this and even more. And He is given to His disciples.” –Dr. Roger L. Fredrikson

 

This Week’s Memory Verse – And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If  you ask anything in My name, I will do it. – John 14:13-14

Day 17 – Friday, March 2, 2018

 

Today’s Assignment – Read John 14:7-11 and answer the following questions.

 

1. What does Jesus mean by verse 7?

 

 

2. What does Philip want Jesus to do?

4. What is Jesus claiming?

 

 

5. Why, according to verse 11, should they believe Jesus words about Himself?

 

 

 

 

 

 

Today’s Quote: “They know God because they had come to know Christ in His ministry and soon in His death and resurrection. To know Him is to know God. This constant emphasis on Jesus as God incarnate is unmistakably clear in this gospel (v. 11; 1:1–3, 14, 17, 18; 5:10–23, 26; 8:58; 9:35; 10:30, 38; 12:41; 17:1–5; 20:28).” – Dr. John MacArthur

 

This Week’s Memory Verse – And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If  you ask anything in My name, I will do it. – John 14:13-14

50 Days with Jesus in the Upper Room

Day 16 – Thursday, March 1, 2018

 

Today’s assignment – Read John 14:1-6 and answer the following questions.

 

1. Why should the disciples not be in a state of panic?

 

 

 

2. How does Jesus describe heaven?

 

 

 

 

3. What is Thomas” question?

 

 

4. What does Jesus tell us about himself and getting to the Father?

 

 

5. How is Jesus the way, the truth and the life for you?

 

 

Today’s Quote: “I will come back” is one of the few eschatological allusions in this Gospel. Jesus was not speaking of a general resurrection but of his personal concern for his own disciples. Though he did not elaborate on the promise, the guarantee is unmistakable. His return is as certain as his departure, and he would take them with him to his Father’s house.” – Dr. Edwin A. Blum

 

This Week’s Memory Verse – And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If  you ask anything in My name, I will do it. – John 14:13-14

1. Write a three or four sentence summary of the chapter.

 

 

 

2. Give the whole chapter a title.

 

 

 

3. Give each section below a one or two word title

 

John 14:1-6 – __________________________

 

John 14:7-11 -__________________________

 

John 14:12-18 – _________________________

 

John 14:19-24 -_________________________

 

John 14: 26-31 – ________________________

 

Today’s Quote: “There is a close connection between the events of chapter 13 and the promises of chapter 14. In chapter 13 the disciples had been rebuked for their lack of humility. They were instructed that Christ would soon leave them. They were told that one of their number would betray his Master, and Peter had been rebuked. To offset the depression produced by this startling revelation, Christ brought a message of hope and encouragement.” – Dr. Edward Dobson

 

This Week’s Memory Verse – And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If  you ask anything in My name, I will do it. – John 14:13-14

 

So?…..What’s it to me? – As a result of today’s study I will…

And Jacob was left alone; and there wrestled a man with him until the breaking of the day (Gen. 32:24).

Left alone! What different sensations those words conjure up to each of us. To some they spell loneliness and desolation, to others rest and quiet. To be left alone without God would be too awful for words, but to be left alone with Him is a foretaste of heaven! If His followers spent more time alone with Him, we should have spiritual giants again.

The Master set us an example. Note how often He went to be alone with God; and He had a mighty purpose behind the command, “When thou prayest, enter into thy closet and when thou hast shut thy door, pray.” The greatest miracles of Elijah and Elisha took place when they were alone with God. It was alone with God that Jacob became a prince; and just there that we, too, may become princes—“men [aye, and women too!] wondered at” (Zech. 3:8). Joshua was alone when the Lord came to him. (Josh. 1:1). Gideon and Jephthah were by themselves when commissioned to save Israel (Judg. 6:11 and 11:29). Moses was by himself at the wilderness bush (Exod. 3:1–5). Cornelius was praying by himself when the angel came to him (Acts 10:2). No one was with Peter on the housetop when he was instructed to go to the Gentiles (Acts 10:9). John the Baptist was alone in the wilderness (Luke 1:80), and John the Beloved alone in Pat-mos, when nearest to God (Rev. 1:9).

Covet to get alone with God. If we neglect it, we not only rob ourselves, but others, too, of blessing, since when we are blessed we are able to pass on blessing to others. It may mean less outside work; it must mean more depth and power, and the consequence, too, will be “they saw no man save Jesus only.” To be alone with God in prayer cannot be overemphasized.

If chosen men had never been alone, In deepest silence open-doored to God, No greatness would ever have been dreamed or done.

50 Days with Jesus in the Upper Room

Day 14 – Tuesday, February 27th, 2018

 

Today’s Assignment – Re-read John 13:1-38 and write down what you have learned from this chapter.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Today’s Quote : “This section begins and ends with love: Jesus’ love for His own (John 13:1) and the disciples’ love for one another. It is love that is the true evidence that we belong to Jesus Christ. The church leader Tertullian (a.d. 155-220) quoted the pagans as saying of the Christians, “See how they love one another?” And how do we evidence that love? By doing what Jesus did: laying down our lives for the brethren (1 John 3:16). And the way to start is by getting down and washing one another’s feet in sacrificial service.” – Dr. Warren Wiersbe

 

This Week’s Memory Verse – If I then, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another’s feet. – John 13:14
