Courage in His Presence


1 John 3:19-24

Good News Translation (GNT)
Courage before God
 19 This, then, is how we will know that we belong to the truth; this is how we will be confident in God's presence.20 If our conscience condemns us, we know that God is greater than our conscience and that he knows everything.21 And so, my dear friends, if our conscience does not condemn us, we have courage in God's presence.22 We receive from him whatever we ask, because we obey his commands and do what pleases him.23 What he commands is that we believe in his Son Jesus Christ and love one another, just as Christ commanded us.24 Those who obey God's commands live in union with God and God lives in union with them. And because of the Spirit that God has given us we know that God lives in union with us.

To Encourage...

Hebrews 10:23-25 English Standard Version (ESV) 23 Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for he who promised is faithful. 24 And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, 25 not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near.

Spiritual Significance

John 15:5 New King James Version (NKJV) 5  “I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing. "One day, a wise friend helped me understand this verse more fully by saying, “Apart from me you can do nothing  of spiritual significance,  nothing  of   etern al value.” - Caran Jantzen
