LOVE – A Spiritual Force

LOVE – A Spiritual Force

The place of love in our daily living can’t be overemphasized. For a peaceful, successful and purpose-fulfilling living, we need to love without strings.
Love is the ability to let go offences eternally. Hence, people have curled LOVE as an acronym to Let Offences Vanish Eternally.
The foundation of the world and Christianity is Love; hence the Church can’t stand without love – Acts 4:32.
Love in this context is Unselfish, Selfless and Self Sacrificial, not the world and evil love. It is the AGAPE LOVE demonstrated by God himself – John 3:16. Love is not condemning, not judgmental and does not support evil but it is after Salvation, Grace and Mercy. This was shown by Jesus Christ Himself – John 8:1-11.
The love of God for Humanity made Him to give His most valued possession, so if we love God we should be able to give Him our most valuable. Hence if we can’t do for God what we do for ourselves <even more>, them we are love deficient. The love for God should be higher than the love for ourselves – Romans 13:10, Matthew 33:36-40. The love for God is demonstrated in these ways basically:
·        Love for His Word- Psalms 119:97
·        Obedience to His Word – John 14:21
·        Serving Him diligently – Exodus 23:25-27, Psalm 122:1
·        Love for humanity – 1 John 4:20
Allow Christ to dwell in your heart by manifesting Agape Love – Ephesians 3:16 – 19. Demonstration of Agape love will make us experience Total Increase and Breakthrough. The fullness of God is in love and where there is love, the power of God is fully operational Acts 2: 41-47.



We should every opportunity we have to lift God by doing His work and lifting people UNCONDITIONALLY.
2016 Complete(20) Love(16)
Shalom!!!
Prayers
Father, thou alone knows how to love unconditionally. Teach me for I want to learn of you. Empower me to love the way you love.
Confession
I am made in the image of God, hence I will love the way God love and mercy will fill my bowel to show unto humanity.

Don’t Look Back!

Don’t Look Back! Luke 9:62 – And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God. Have you answered the call to serve God as His son and daughter? Have you totally chosen Jehovah as your God? Have you decided to leave your old ways and cleave unto God? If yes! Beloved I congratulate you. But hope you took the cost of your choice?? [Please refer to yesterday’s sermon] God doesn’t want us to look back when we have answered the call, why? This is because of the following: Firstly, it brings shame to the body of Christ and makes people to despise Christ. Looking back is to be lukewarm and to depart from the first love! [Revelation 2:4, Revelation 3:16] Secondly, looking back makes the believer to suffer backwardness spiritually and physical. The faith of the believer suffers and takes a longer time to be rebuilt. [Hebrews 6:4]. Thirdly, looking back will make the person not to complete whatever he or she has started. This is w...

Heart Not Garment - 2

"Rend your heart, and not your garments." --Joel 2:13 Apart from vital godliness all religion is utterly vain; offered without a sincere heart, every form of worship is a solemn sham and an impudent mockery of the majesty of heaven. HEART-RENDING is divinely wrought and solemnly felt. It is a secret grief which is personally experienced, not in mere form, but as a deep, soul-moving work of the Holy Spirit upon the inmost heart of each believer. It is not a matter to be merely talked of and believed in, but keenly and sensitively felt in every living child of the living God. It is powerfully humiliating, and completely sin-purging; but then it is sweetly preparative for those gracious consolations which proud un-humbled spirits are unable to receive; and it is distinctly discriminating, for it belongs to the elect of God, and to them alone.

Faulty Covenant

Faulty Covenant Hebrews 8:7 [7] For if that first covenant had been faultless, then should no place have been sought for the second. Covenant as a strong bound that is not easily broken can be faulty. The covenant made betwixt God and the Israelites was a faulty covenant in this time of Grace but perfect in it's time. The covenant wasn't to lead sinner's unto Christ's but it was to lead them unto their destructive end quickly. The old covenant was a period of darkness and pains (because it was more by works and not by grace) but thanks to God who invalidated the old covenant and gave us the covenant of Grace where Jesus is the mediator no longer Moses. God spoken of the new covenant long ago in Jeremiah 31:31; it was manifested in Christ. This new covenant brings light to the soul. Every covenant that do not bring light to your life, be destroyed now by fire! Whatever makes you to live by work and not by grace be destroyed! For God's name sake, let everyt...
