What does John 1:9-13 say about the way the world and Jesus' own received
the Word when He became flesh and came into the world?
“There was the true Light
which, coming into the world, enlightens every man. He was in the world, and
the world was made through Him, and the world did not know Him. He came to His
own, and those who were His own did not receive Him. But as many as received
Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to those who
believe in His name, who were born, not of blood nor of the will of the flesh
nor of the will of man, but of God” (John 1:9-13).
Father,
Glory and thanks to You
through Jesus the Messiah for so great a salvation as You have freely given to
all who receive Jesus, Your Son, from Whom is received the right to become Your
children, born not of blood nor of the will of the flesh nor of the will of
man, but of You. May all who dwell in Your secret place, abiding under the
shadow of the Almighty, cease from striving and know that You are God.
In
Jesus’ Name I pray, Amen.
