Principles from John’s Gospel
16 – Testimony
Sharing our personal experience with Jesus actually builds a bridge of faith for those who do not believe and helps them borrow our faith for their first steps toward Jesus.
15 – Worship
The kind of worship God is looking for will make most of us uncomfortable and at the outer boundary of what is a normal experience for us. True worship begins from a place of Truth and commitment to the Spirit.
14 – Obstacles
Communicating with unbelievers about Jesus, the Kingdom, and spiritual things can be challenging when their worldview perspective raises significant obstacles to having a real exchange. Jesus by-passed obstacles and gave the woman at the well a real encounter that changed her life.
13 Fulfillment
We were created to live out our identity under the blessing of God as we fulfill our divine assignments in life. This puts spiritual fuel in our tanks and creates the sense of fulfillment that comes from being part of something larger than ourselves.
12 Hiding
When we get a revelation of who God is and what His posture is toward us, we can finally come out of hiding, even when we fall or make mistakes, and run toward Him.
11 Supernatural
The primary thing that separates us from everything else in the natural world is the supernatural. – John 9:24-25
10 Awareness
Jesus was on task and committed to His mission. But He was always aware of His Father and those around Him which enabled Him to facilitate the divine moments of others along His journey, – John 9:1-7
09 Processing Truth
Maturity requires that we are aware of and learn to process our lives in real-time using multiple layers of truth. – John 7:24
08 Honor & Faith
Faith enables us to stand in the gap between what we believe and our current circumstance. Honoring God and His presence activates and enlarges our faith. – John 5:44
07 Spirit
Being born again means being born spiritually and having Holy Spirit living inside of you. John 3:3-8
06 Access
Jesus is our bridge between heaven and earth, the fulfilment of Jacob’s ladder. – John 1:49-51
05 Timing
Timing is an important part of our lives. Trusting God with timing is an essential part of being a disciple of Jesus. – John 2:4-11
04 Rejection
Jesus was rejected so that we will never be rejected by God. – John 1:10
03 Relationship
God has a very high value for relationships. – John 3:16
02 Revelation
Sometimes the greatest enemy of our current revelation is what we already know from the last revelation. – John 6:40-42
01 Satisfaction
Real satisfaction can only be found in one place – in God. – John 6:26-27
