And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.
He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.
These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.
1 John 5:11-13 KJV
When you hold your Bible today, you hold the record of God’s promises to man: salvation, healing, prosperity, cleansing, forgiveness, victory, peace. . . . Every promise is offered to everyone. It just takes faith to receive them.
By faith we know that we know the promise is ours. There is an inner witness of the Holy Spirit confirming the promise is true:
All who believe in the Son of God know in their hearts that this testimony is true.
1 John 5:10 NLT
As you read your Bible, consciously acknowledge the truth of God’s Word. Say out loud: “This testimony is true. I BELIEVE and I KNOW IN MY HEART that I have all the benefits of Christian living promised by God.” The Holy Spirit will agree with you.
Too many say they believe in Jesus but they don’t know anything regarding the blessings of Christian living. They don’t even know if they are going to heaven. It is all a mystery to them because they are unfamiliar with the Record of God’s blessings.
“These things have I written unto you that believe . . . .”
Believing begins with reading what has been written. Everyone is responsible for reading the Bible for themselves. With reading comes believing, and with believing comes knowing. No one can ever rob you of what you know to be true in your heart.
