Free Reading Plans and Devotionals related to 1 John 5:14

If you want to grow as a disciple of Jesus, then this Plan is for you. Join us for a verse-by-verse study through 1 John, one of the greatest examinations of love that has ever been written.

What if you could go from overwhelmingly insecure to completely confident because of what Christ has done for you?

During Connect 21, we aspire to gain clarity in hearing God's voice and making His wisdom our guiding light throughout the year. To achieve this, we commit to subduing the desires of our flesh through fasting, redirecting the time spent on meals to prayer, and glorifying God. This spiritual discipline empowers us to experience God's presence and to witness His transformative power in our lives.

God alone is our refuge. When the foundations around us are shaken, He is the shelter we run to. God alone can bring peace in the chaos, joy in the sorrow, and hope in the darkness. All we need to do is be still and know.

We are taking 21 days to seek God first. Prayer is powerful! Prayer is a way that we can partner with God to see His kingdom come and His will be done. When we pray together, it draws us closer to God, bringing not only results but unity as we seek Him together.

This devotion will take you through the entire book of 1 John. In 1 John, we see what humanity's reasonable response is to God's radical love.
