My scripture for today is from John 1 v 1-18 and would like to highlight vers 1-2 and 14.

1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was with God in the beginning [AND] 14 The Word became flesh and dwelt among us.

How often do we refer to the triune God (Trinity), whom we serve, but do we really understand the concept of 3-in-1?

I have heard many people say over the years they believe in God, but at the same time do not acknowledge Jesus as God.  I think this could cause you to have a wrong view of our Creator who became flesh, lived as a man, taught us about His kingdom, showed us His heart and love, carried the curse of sin and was made to be sin (2 Cor 5 v 21), although He knew no sin… All of this so that we might become the righteousness of God. 

In becoming flesh He gave a part of Himself and when returning back He gave another part of Himself in the form of the Spirit and this Spirit he gave us, is not a spirit of fear but gives us power, love and self-discipline (2 Tim 1 v 7).  A spirit that guides us into all truth, a spirit that not only convicts us, but intercedes for us in prayer. 

Brothers, let us listen to what the Spirit says and it will be well with our souls in the midst of our trials and tribulations.
