Daily Walk Through the New Testament

September 2

Read John 14:25-15:27

Jesus used a simple analogy to help His followers understand how to flourish spiritually: we must be in union with Him as a branch stays connected to a vine (John 15:1-8). In nature, a disconnected branch will never grow or bear fruit, but a connected branch almost always will. Branches must stay linked to the vine as their source of life. In the same way, believers must abide in Christ to experience His life.
Today, abide in Christ by crying out to Him in prayer, listening to Him speak through Scripture, and obeying Him by faith.
