“His Voice Today”

January 17

🔸️ God’s complete protection in our complete dedication! 🔸

In John 17:23 Jesus did not pray for this world or for Carnal Christians. Instead, Jesus prayed for the 11 disciples who hated “all things” and followed Him! Only these people had seen the true “protection of the Father’s love” in their lives, which is invisible for the worldly people and the carnal Christians!

Today why are so many Christians are “fleshly Christians?” Because the devil deceived them by keeping the thinking that they would be more happy to “embrace both the belongings of the Earth as well as the Heaven” without committing themselves fully to God! But, this is a terrible deception!! If we had believed in the perfect love of God, we would have “willingly” confessed everything to Him, without hiding “even a little”! If so, we will be “perfectly” free from “all” anxieties, as the Bible says in Philippians 4:6,7! But carnal-minded Christians will always be skeptical about “whether the boat will sink in the middle of the storm”!

Jesus, who was secure in His Father’s perfect love, was able to rest in the storm and ‘sleep’. Jesus knew that the Devil could never able to drown him. Because the Father always guards over Jesus! Thus, if we realise that the Father who loved Jesus, is also protecting us, then what a glorious life it is!!

Prayer:
Dear Father! Realizing that there is no “perfect” protection without surrendering ourselves “completely” to You, we dedicate ourselves today! Praying in the name of Jesus the Saviour, Amen.
