The Invitation of Jesus

*This devo goes along with our sermon series Faith - A Journey through Doubt, which can be watched here

Scripture: John 14:2–3 (NIV)

“My Father’s house has many rooms… I am going there to prepare a place for you… I will come back and take you to be with me.”

The claim of Jesus is exclusive — “No one comes to the Father except through me.” But His invitation is wide open.

Jesus came for the weak, the weary, the wandering, and the worst. He didn’t say, “Earn a place in heaven.” He said, “I’m preparing one for you.” That’s the heart of the Gospel — not a gate closed tight, but a door swung wide to anyone who will walk through it.

We live in a world full of fear, confusion, and loneliness. But Jesus speaks with personal tenderness: “Don’t let your heart be troubled.” He’s not just building a place — He’s coming to take you there Himself.

You’re not just invited to a destination. You’re invited to a relationship.

Prayer: Lord, thank You for preparing a place for me. I receive Your invitation with gratitude and humility. Help me live like someone who belongs to You. Amen.
