R³ Devotional - Day 274
R³ Devotional - Day 274 - John 1:1–14
By: Anderson Baptist Church
Scripture Focus: John 1:1–14
"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God... The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us."
John opens his Gospel not with a manger, but with majesty. He takes us back to the beginning—not just of Jesus’ earthly life, but of creation itself. The Word (Logos) is eternal, divine, and personal. And this Word didn’t stay distant. He came near. He entered our brokenness. He became flesh.
This is the ultimate new beginning: God stepping into our story to rewrite it with grace.

Invitation to Anderson Baptist Church
As we begin this new season of devotions in the New Testament, we invite the Anderson Baptist Church family to join us in embracing the power of a new beginning. Let’s walk together in awe, unity, boldness, and purpose—anchored in the Word who became flesh.
Whether you’re a longtime believer or just beginning to explore faith, this is your moment to start fresh. Let’s seek His face, dwell in His presence, and shine His light.

Real-Life Principles
- Jesus is the foundation of every new start. Whether you're just starting to help a ministry, rebuilding a relationship, or recovering—He is the beginning. Not just chronologically, but spiritually and practically.
- God’s presence transforms ordinary places. “He dwelt among us” means He pitched His tent in our neighborhood. That means your home, your church, and your workplace can be holy ground.
- Light always wins over darkness. John 1:5 reminds us that the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it. That’s not just poetic—it’s a promise for every weary heart.
Relevant Application
- Start your day with this thought: “Jesus, You are my beginning today.” Let that shape your decisions, your tone, your priorities.
- Invite Christ into your life—your schedule, your conversations, your leadership. Don’t compartmentalize Him.
- When facing discouragement, remember: the darkness cannot overcome the light. Speak that truth over your family, your church, your community.
