Scripture:1 John 5:11-12 11 And this is the testimony: that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. 12 He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life.
Observation:
When people on whom we trust say something we believe that as truth. If we believe in what man says, we must believe in what God says, because God is much greater. God has already said the truth about His son Jesus. We need to believe, if we don't we make God a liar.
This is the truth God told about Jesus.
God has given us eternal life and this life is found only in Jesus.
He who has Son has life, he who doesn't have Son has no life.
God wants us to believe these truths as the one who said this is not man, but God.
Application:
I must believe that Jesus has life and having Jesus is life.
Prayer:
Lord, make me to believe in the life after death.

Scripture: I John 5:11-12
11 And this is the testimony, that God gave us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. 12 Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life.
Observation:
Eternal life is through His son Jesus Christ. He is the origin of life because All things were made through him, and without him was not any thing made that was made [John 1:3 / Colossians 1:16]
Jesus is our final destination, way and life and Without Him no one comes to the Father [John 14:6] Jesus is our resurrection and life. The one who believes in Him will live even though he die [John 11:25]
As in I Corinthians 15:45, Jesus is a also a life giving Spirit. The people who don't have life giving Spirit are considered dead in Spirit as Jesus mentioned about non-believers as dead and blind. [Matt 8:22 Let the dead bury their own dead/Matt 15:13-14]
Application:
Life of God is the light of Men and the light shines in darkness and the darkness has not overcome it. [John 1:4] Christ nature should get manifested in everything we do [Colossians 3:1-13] since we have been risen with the Christ we have to show the fruits of Christ.
Christ will manifest if we do everything in our life as to the Lord and we constantly self-check ourselves that all the things we do will be approved of Lord.
Prayer:
Lord, let Your Spirit guide me in my life so we can glorify Christ.
