John 4:26 | DiscipleDeck

Bible Commentary

John 4:26

The greatest revelation in the chapter — and Jesus gave it first to a Samaritan woman. Not to the Pharisees, not to the disciples. To her. To the one who seemed to matter least.

Memory phrase: Jesus revealed Himself to her.

Talk about it: Jesus told this woman He was the Messiah before He told many others. What does it tell us about Jesus that He revealed this to her?

Prayer: Jesus, thank You for revealing Yourself to me. I am amazed that You chose to show Yourself to me.
