June 15, 2026 Behold The Lamb of God

Scripture Reading:John 1:29-37; Isaiah 53:7; 1 Peter 1:18-19

Key Verse: John 1:36 And looking upon Jesus as he walked, he saith, Behold the Lamb of God!

Today’s Reflection: John the Baptist understood his calling. He was not trying to build a name for himself. He was not gathering disciples to make himself famous. His ministry was to point people to Jesus Christ. When he saw Jesus walking, he said, “Behold the Lamb of God!”

That statement brings us to the very heart of the gospel. Jesus is not merely a teacher, example, reformer, or miracle worker. He is the Lamb of God. He came to deal with sin. John 1:29 says, “Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.” Long before Calvary, the Old Testament sacrifices pointed forward to the need for blood, substitution, and atonement. Isaiah said He would be “brought as a lamb to the slaughter.” Peter later declared that we are redeemed “with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot.”

Before we can point others to Jesus, we must be conscious of who He is. A person cannot truly point someone else to a Saviour he does not personally know. Religious activity is not enough. Church attendance, Bible language, and outward morality cannot replace the new birth. John 1:12 says, “But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God.”

The first question is not, “Do I know how to witness?” The first question is, “Do I know Him?” Have I personally received Christ? Have I trusted the Lamb of God who shed His blood for my sin?

When the heart is settled on who Jesus is, the mouth can speak clearly of Him. John pointed away from himself and toward Christ. That is the pattern for every believer.

Daily Topic: We must personally know Jesus as the Lamb of God before we can point others to Him.

Continue Today: Take time to thank the Lord Jesus for being the Lamb of God who took away your sin. Then ask Him to help you point attention away from yourself and toward Him.

Prayer: Lord Jesus, Thou art the Lamb of God. Thank Thee for shedding Thy precious blood for my sin. Keep me from empty religion and self-centered service. Help me know Thee personally, love Thee deeply, and point others clearly to Thee. Amen.

June 16, 2026 We Have Found the Messias

Primary Scripture: John 1:40-42; Deuteronomy 18:15; Hebrews 4:14-16; Revelation 19:16
Key Verse:John 1:41 “He first findeth his own brother Simon, and saith unto him, We have found the Messias, which is, being interpreted, the Christ.”

Today’s Reflection: Andrew’s testimony was simple but powerful: “We have found the Messias.” He did not have a long sermon. He did not know everything there was to know. But he knew enough to know that Jesus was the Christ, the Anointed One.

In the Old Testament, prophets, priests, and kings were anointed for their work. The prophet revealed God’s message. The priest represented man before God and dealt with sin. The king ruled with authority. Through the centuries, Israel looked for the promised Messiah, the One anointed by God.

Jesus is that One. He is the Prophet who reveals God. He is the great High Priest who removes the guilt of sin by His own blood. He is the King of kings and Lord of lords who shall reign forever.

That means Jesus is right for whatever is wrong in life. The confused need Him as Prophet. The guilty need Him as Priest. The broken and fearful need Him as King. The sinner needs Him as Saviour. The believer needs Him as Lord.

Andrew’s first burden was his own brother. John 1:41 says, “He first findeth his own brother Simon.” Soul-consciousness often begins at home. Family members, friends, neighbors, coworkers, and those closest to us need someone to say, “We have found the Messias.”

When we are surrendered to the Lord, He gives us courage, compassion, and opportunity.

Daily Topic: Jesus is the Christ: Prophet, Priest, and King.

Continue Today: Pray by name for one family member or close friend who needs to know Jesus. Ask God for an opportunity to point them to Christ with humility and love.

Prayer: Father, thank Thee for sending Jesus, the promised Christ. Thank Thee that He reveals God, removes guilt, and reigns as King. Give me a burden for those closest to me. Help me faithfully and lovingly point them to Jesus. Amen.

June 17, 2026 Come and See

Primary Scripture: John 1:43-46; John 1:11-13; Romans 8:9-10
Key Verse:John 1:46 “Philip saith unto him, Come and see.”

Today’s Reflection: Philip found Nathanael and told him, “We have found him, of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets, did write.” Philip was convinced that Jesus fulfilled the Scriptures. He believed the promised One had come.

Nathanael, however, was not immediately convinced. His question was skeptical: “Can there any good thing come out of Nazareth?” Philip did not argue him into silence. He did not try to manipulate him. He did not have to answer every objection perfectly. He simply said, “Come and see.”

That is a helpful lesson in witnessing. Some people receive the Word quickly. Others require more time, more explanation, and more patience. Some come with sincere questions. Some come with wrong ideas. Some know just enough Bible to be confused. Some have been hurt, hardened, or misled. Our responsibility is not to force the result; our responsibility is to point them to Jesus.

There is great wisdom in Philip’s answer. He brought Nathanael close enough to meet Christ for himself. Once Nathanael met Jesus, the Lord answered what Philip could not. Jesus saw him before Nathanael ever saw Jesus. Jesus knew him under the fig tree. Jesus reached his conscience and heart.

This should encourage every believer. You may not be able to answer every question, but you can still say, “Come and see.” Come hear the Word. Come consider Christ. Come see what He has done. Come meet the Saviour.

Daily Topic: We point people to Jesus by inviting them to consider Him for themselves.

Continue Today: Invite someone to church, to read John chapter 1 with you, or to talk about the Lord. Keep it simple and sincere: “Come and see.”

Prayer: Lord, give me wisdom when others have questions I cannot fully answer. Help me not to be fearful or argumentative. Teach me to lovingly say, “Come and see.” Use my simple witness to bring others face to face with Jesus. Amen.

June 18, 2026 Concerned for Souls

Primary Scripture:John 1:40-46; Psalm 126:5-6; Romans 10:13-15
Key Verse:John 1:42 “And he brought him to Jesus.”

Today’s Reflection: Andrew brought Simon Peter to Jesus. Philip found Nathanael and pointed him to Jesus. John the Baptist pointed his disciples to Jesus. A common theme runs through the passage: people who met Christ wanted others to meet Him too.

A believer should be concerned for souls. It is possible to become concerned about many things and forget the main thing. We may care about schedules, buildings, preferences, programs, burdens, and opinions, while souls all around us are lost without Christ.

Andrew and Philip remind us that concern becomes action. They traveled. They tracked someone down. They told them about Jesus. Andrew found his brother. Philip found Nathanael. They had someone specific in mind.

The sermon illustration of Edward Kimball and D. L. Moody is a powerful reminder that one faithful witness can influence generations. A Sunday school teacher found a young man in a shoe store and pointed him to Christ. That young man was D. L. Moody, whom God later used to point multitudes to Jesus.

We may never know on earth what one witness, one prayer, one invitation, or one gospel conversation may do. But eternity keeps better records than we do.

The question is searching: Is there anybody on your mind today that you have a burden for them to know Jesus? Everybody knows somebody who needs to be saved.

Daily Topic: A soul-conscious Christian looks for specific people to point to Jesus.

Continue Today: Write down the name of one lost person. Pray for them today. Then ask God to give you courage and opportunity to speak to them about Christ.

Prayer: Lord, give me a burden for souls. Forgive me for being careless while people around me need Jesus. Put someone on my heart, and give me courage to find them, love them, pray for them, and point them to Christ. Amen.

June 19, 2026 Leave the Results to God

Primary Scripture:John 1:47-51; 1 Corinthians 3:6-9; Galatians 6:9
Key Verse: John 1:49 “Nathanael answered and saith unto him, Rabbi, thou art the Son of God; thou art the King of Israel.”

Today’s Reflection: Nathanael began with questions, but he ended with confession. He first wondered whether any good thing could come out of Nazareth, but after meeting Jesus, he said, “Rabbi, thou art the Son of God; thou art the King of Israel.”

Philip did not save Nathanael. Philip did not remove every doubt. Philip did not perform a miracle in his heart. Philip simply pointed him to Jesus. Then Jesus did what only Jesus can do.

That is a great comfort in Christian service. We are responsible to tell others, but we are not responsible for how they respond. We cannot convict the heart. We cannot open blind eyes. We cannot save the soul. But we can be faithful.

Some will receive the Word quickly, as the two disciples did when John pointed them to Jesus. Some will require work, like Simon Peter, whom Andrew brought to Jesus. Some will reveal wondering, like Nathanael, who needed to come and see. But in every case, our calling is the same: point them to Jesus and leave the results with God.

First Corinthians 3:6 says, “I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase.” That is the balance of faithful service. We plant. We water. We witness. We pray. We invite. We continue. But God gives the increase.

Jesus told Nathanael, “Thou shalt see greater things than these.” That is what happens when a person meets Christ. Jesus is more than they first realized. His grace is greater. His power is greater. His glory is greater. His salvation is greater.

Daily Topic: We must be consistent in service and trust God with the results.

Continue Today: Do one faithful thing today to point someone to Jesus: pray, invite, encourage, witness, give a tract, or share Scripture. Then leave the results with God.

Prayer: Lord, make me faithful in service. Help me not to be discouraged by questions, delays, or rejection. Teach me to plant and water while trusting Thee for the increase. Use my life to point others to Jesus until the day I stand before Thee. Amen.

Closing Reflection for the Week: John 1:35-51 shows ordinary people pointing others to an extraordinary Saviour. John pointed his disciples to Jesus. Andrew pointed his brother to Jesus. Philip pointed Nathanael to Jesus. Each one reminds us that the Christian life is not only about knowing Christ personally, but helping others come to Him.

Final Thought: Will there be anybody in heaven because you pointed them to Jesus? We are not responsible for every response, but we are responsible to faithfully tell others: “Come and see.”
