Lamb of God!

. Like our devotional this week, Jesus you are
the Lamb of God who takes our sin away. You call all of us, like you
called John, then Andrew, then Philip, and Nathanael (Thought to be
called also Bartholomew)!

Meeting Jesus is life changing. John and Andrew were never the same.
John the Baptist pointed them to the Lamb of God, and they
followed.John knew Jesus was the promised Messiah. ( Isaiah 53:5-11)
Andrew later brought his brother Peter as the third disciple. Andrew
is most prominently seen introducing others to Jesus (see John 6:8-9;
12:22). Andrew tells Peter they have found the Messiah (which means
Christ). Whom are you pointing to Christ? Whom are you following?
Jesus' sacrifice was sufficient to atone for all mankind. (1 John 2:2).

When introduced to Christ, people react in different ways. Some, like
Philip, are immediately sold-out. Others, like Nathanael, are
skeptical and cautious. What a great example we see in Andrew and
Philip, men who did not need the spotlight but quietly brought others
to Christ!

Pray that the Lord "Lamb of God", will give you the strength to fight the storms of life and overcome temptation! To be a bold witness of Christ Jesus!
Love,
Rittermom
