No Snatching

John 10:25-39

25 Jesus answered, "I did tell you, but you do not believe. The miracles I do in my Father's name speak for me, 26 but you do not believe because you are not my sheep. 27 My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me. 28 I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one can snatch them out of my hand. 29 My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all; no one can snatch them out of my Father's hand. 30 I and the Father are one."

Bee's Thoughts:

Jesus is likened to the 'shepherd' and Christians are likened to 'sheep'. He said very clearly that those who are his 'sheep' will hear His voice and follow Him, whereas, those who don't are not His sheep. It's just that simple.

Are you a Christian? Do you listen to Jesus? Do you follow Jesus?

Jesus promised eternal life to His 'sheep' and assured that "no one can snatch them" from His hand... i.e. even Satan can't do that unless they willingly want to follow Satan. That's a comforting promise.


Dear Lord Jesus,
Thank You for being the good Shepherd. Thank You for your salvation and protection. Let me hear Your voice always. Speak to my heart everyday and let me obey You. Amen.
