1 John 2:27 AV
But the anointing
which ye have received of him
abideth in you,
and ye need not
that any man teach you:
but as the same anointing
teacheth you of all things,
and is truth, and is no lie,
and even as it hath taught you,
ye shall abide in him.
Devotional
When we became born again, we became Christians, and we were not only cleansed by the blood of Jesus, we were also filled with the Holy Spirit.
John speaks of this as our anointing.
The Spirit helps us hear the truth about Jesus and keeps us from surrendering that truth to false teaching that would diminish either side of Jesus’ identity — Jesus, God with us.
We abide in Jesus when we hold on to this incredible truth.
Prayer suggestions
- Thank God for sending Jesus to save you.
- Thank you for sending you His Spirit to help you safeguard the truth about His Son and your Savior.
