The Gift Of God's Word

Text: John 17: 7 - 8

THE GIFT OF GOD’S WORD

The Word of God is unfortunately taken too much for granted. Jesus’ prayer reflected His regard for the Word that came from God.

“Now they have known that all things which You have given Me are from You. For I have given to them the words which You have given Me; and they have received them, and have known surely that I came forth from You; and they have believed that You sent Me.” 

John 17:7-8

1. “Now they have known that all things which You have given Me are from You”

a. The Mission of Jesus
b. The authority and power
c. The Word that Jesus proclaimed

All of these things came from God directly. The Disciples now fully knew this great truth!

2. “For I have given to them the words which You have given Me”

a. The teachings of Jesus.
b. These were carefully recorded in all the Four Gospels.
c. Jesus had always reminded His Disciples that the words had come from God.

3. “And they have received them”

a. The learning process was difficult and sometimes painful.
i. Rebuke
ii. Correction
iii. Repetition
iv. Emphasis
b. Finally, they were received.
i. They were understood.
ii. They were kept in their hearts and minds.

4. “And have known surely that I came forth from You; and they have believed that You sent Me”

a. These truths must be carefully established.
b. The Disciples had come to fully believe that Jesus had indeed come from God.
c. Their faith had grown slowly but definitely.
