3 John

Daily Devotional from 3 John--

Verse 4
I have no greater joy than to hear that my children are walking in the truth.

To learn that the people John had taught were still walking in the truth of Jesus Christ brought him great joy. But imagine the joy in Heaven.

1 John 1:7 tells us: “But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin.” We know that Jesus also said through the writer Luke in Luke 17:7: “Just so, I tell you, there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who need no repentance.”

Walking in truth is like walking in the light of God and it brings joy to those who have taught us and to Heaven itself.

Let’s walk in truth today! Besides the joy it will bring others, we will have the benefit of fellowship with one another adding another layer of joy to our lives as well as the lives of those around us.
