WHO DO YOU LOVE?

WHO DO YOU LOVE?

It is indeed important to ask this question.

There are many stories and definition of Love.

 Yet the greatest of all is the one of Him who is above all things and from whom all things have their origin.

He is the one who made us "human" come to existence. He is Yaweh the Jehovah, God the Almighty.

1John 4:8
 He who does not love does not know God, for God is love.

God is love but His love is not an abstract one, His love made Him sacrifice His Son for us, that His blood will cleanse us from all sin, and then grant us the right to be children of God. Then heirs in Christ Jesus.

1John 4:9
In this the love of God was manifested toward us, that God has sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through Him.

God loves us, in return what does He expect from us.

Simple -  to love Him also.

He even commanded it.

Deuteronomy 6:5
 "You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your might.

Psalm 31:23
 Oh, love the LORD, all you His saints! For the LORD preserves the faithful, And fully repays the proud person.

Mathew 22:37
 Jesus said to him, " 'You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.'

What does it mean to love God?

1John 5:3

 For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments. And His commandments are not burdensome.

God's command to us in the New Testament is simple.

1John 3:23
 And this is His commandment: that we should believe on the name of His Son Jesus Christ and love one another, as He gave us commandment.

So friends, you love God if:

1. You believe in His Son Jesus who He sacrificed for you.

2. You love others who God has put around you.

The prove of our believe in His Son is when we share His testimony with others and live as an example.

2Corinthians 5:20
Therefore we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were pleading through us: we implore you on Christ's behalf, be reconciled to God.

Your love for others is also shown in your desire to see them escape the destruction in hell. To ensure that the enjoy enternity with Yeshua "Jesus the Christ"

He loved us then gave His life, we also love Him and give our life.

Our daily decaration should include:

"FATHER I LOVE YOU AND TODAY I WILL SHOW IT"

May God's love reflect through us

In word, thoughts and deed.

His love for us is so great that we do not need to be afraid no one can bring us down because he will hide us under His wings.

Psalm 91:2
I will say of the LORD, [He is] my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.

It is well with you.

 Do have a wonderful day.

God bless you

Love
@ the watcher.

DO YOU STILL SEE?

-
Habakkuk 2:3 For the vision is yet for an appointed time; but at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, it will not tarry. It may have been easy when we first believed, to visualize the promises. We reach out with zeal, loving God, seeking to do exploits. That was when we first believed, just as Jesus said: John 3:3 Jesus answered and said to him, "Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God." When we become born again we see God's kingdom, our spirit man is reborn and we count the flesh as nothing. Then time passes by, we are in the world, all its distractions, temptations, responsibilities, challenges and so on begin to reveal themselves. The question then is: * Can we still see heaven? John 3:3 * Are we still zealous? John 2:17 * Are we continuing in those things? Acts 2:42 * Are we walking in love? 1John 4:7 or Has the cares and worries of life and service ta

DO UNTO OTHERS . . .

-
Matthew 7:12 "Therefore, whatever you want men to do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets. It is hypocritical of us to expect people to stand with us when we are experiencing challenges yet when we see others face their own challenges, we begin to imagine what they must have done wrong or maybe they annoyed God or did one evil or the other instead of reaching out to help as we would desire others to do for us. The same thing goes for prosperity, when the Lord opens a door for us and we have abundance of wealth or a breakthrough we expect others to rejoice with us, more so, some would even find it hard to give to others. What is our reaction when someone else gets this breakthrough, do we get suddenly suspicious without reason. Do we expect the person to reach out to us? It is better to stay on the side of encouragement than to sit as a judge or prosecutor. Jesus said, Matthew 7:2 "For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the same

MY YEAR OF FULFILMENT

-
Psalms 57:2 I cry out to God Most High, to God who will fulfill his purpose for me. We just finished the book of 1Samuel, in this book we see the cry of Israel for a king and how God raised Saul to rule them. We also saw how Saul disobeyed God and lost kingship for himself and his generation. He did not stop there, he went on to seek for the death of David, whom he saw as the next heir of the throne. In chapter 31, the last chapter, we see how Saul and all his sons and men were killed, it was tragic, however it was as a sign of relief for David. We could go on counting all the struggles and difficulties we faced in the past year. No, we should not, we should begin to look at all the positives, remembering all the good things God has done for us. If He promised it, He will do it and that is what we hold onto as we go through this year. Hebrews 10:23 Let us hold tightly without wavering to the hope we affirm, for God can be trusted to keep his promise. This is the year of fulfilment, and
