This Month’s Reading Plan at a Glance: October
Jesus, Name Above All Names
Jesus healed the sick, gave sight to the blind, caused the deaf to hear, the lame to walk, and promised living water to all who are thirsty.
This month we’ll read as Jesus turns water into wine, overturns tables in the temple (fulfilling Ps. 69:9), foretells of His death and resurrection (John 2:20, 21), shares the gospel with a Pharisees named Nicodemus, and promises living water to a Samaritan woman.
Jesus is all we need! If your life is empty like those jars at the wedding – He can fill it with the fruit of the Spirit (Eph. 5:18). If your life is filled with compromise like the temple – He can cleanse it (1 John 1:9). If you’re a skeptic who doubts Jesus as the Son of God – He fulfilled all the law and prophecies. If you’re a religious person like Nicodemus – He wants to give you new life. You must be born again (John 3:3). If you’re like the Samaritan woman at the well and living a life that will leave you lonely and unsatisfied – Jesus offers living water and you’ll never thirst again!
At The Cross... God proved His love for us (John 3:16); washed and cleansed us from sin (1 John 1:7); gave us peace and forgiveness (Eph. 1:7; 2:14-15); provides us with a clean conscience (Rom.8:1); and gives us New Life (2 Cor. 5:17). Our thirst is satisfied and every need met (John 4:14, Rev. 21:6, Phil.4:19).
Truly, what a Savior!
