"One Year Bible" New Testament Passage
John 1:29-51
He first found his own brother Simon, and said to him, "We have found the Messiah..." John 1:41
The following day Jesus wanted to go to Gallilee and He found Phillip... John 1:43
Phillip found Nathaniel and said to him, "We have found Him..." John 1:45
Men FOUND Jesus. Jesus FOUND men. Men FOUND their friends and brought them to Jesus. This is the drama of John Chapter One. It is a story of discovery and delight.
Do you remember when you FOUND Jesus? Also, do you remember who you told about your discovery? In the thrill of new-found faith you wanted learn more about Him and to let that light shine on those nearest you.
It is wonderful to consider that Jesus had already been pursuing you! Not only did you find Him, He FOUND you. He called Simon by a new name (vs. 42). He told Nathaniel what he had been doing hours before their encounter. Jesus already knew him! Even now, as you seek the Lord, He is already ahead of you preparing the way.
