Jesus said that He and His Father are one and they picked stones to stone Him. He asked for which work they wanted to stone Him and they said for claiming to be God. He asked what was written in their scriptures God calling men gods. Ps 82:6.
He said though they never believed Him, they should believe for the sake of the works He did and they understood that He is in the Father and the Father is in Him. They tried to seize Him but He escaped their hands.
We learn here the oneness of Christ and the Father. This also we should follow Jesus. Though we may not be perfectly one with the Father, we can seek to dwell in His presence beholding His glory and seek to know His mind and His will and try to only do what He tells us to do.
We can seek for such a union in Christ: and as each day passes by, that union should be becoming better and better. We must spend time in prayer and in Gods word. We must learn to meditate on the scriptures day and night. We must always humble ourselves in every circumstance and we must and we must always learn to keep our conscience clear. Long to be made one with God. At the end of the year, those who see you most must be able to testify that you have become better and more godly. This is your inheritance; a life of inner peace and rest and full of joy.
We also learn that it's not wisdom to expose ourselves when we see danger; we must go out of the place of where there is danger.
Many came to Jesus and said that whatever John said about Him was true though John performed no miracle.
John, the greatest of all men in the old covenant did no miracle, yet people were flocking to listen to Him in the wilderness. God bore witness to Him and His message went straight to peoples hearts.
We see here that God does not bear witness only through miracles. Not every servant of His has the gifts of healing or miracles. In fact Paul says that God gives the gift of miracles to some, and to another healing. But whether you have healing or miracles gifts, the most important thing is that God bears witness to your ministry.
Many servants have been blinded to think that if they cannot perform miracles and signs; God is not pleased with them but that is not true. These gifts are not given to everyone. 1st Corinthians 12:8-10, 29-30 teaches that clearly.
Many believed Him.
You are blessed to be a blessing
