KEEP LOVE ALIVE

Romans 8:35

Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? [shall] tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?


A lot of things could attempt to separate us from the love of Christ but it is a wasted effort, it just cannot, nothing can.


Many even some of us who have believed do not understand the extent of this love. It came with a high price, paid by Christ Himself and no one can contest it.


We are the ones who can stumble. God knows the extent of His love and what great price was paid. So it is a wonder why some believers still allow the enemy to hold them captive even to the extent of building ministries in the operation of demons and evil spirits. Jesus never did this, neither did any of the apostles. (This is a study on its own.)


As true believers we should build and promote God's kingdom and not the kingdom of the enemy. Yes, we are not ignorant of their devices but we don't dwell on them we destroy them.


1 John 3:8b
But the Son of God came to destroy the works of the devil.

 

We should do the same to and not to promote it. Selah


We as humans, are the ones that can fumble on love. Thus we then have the instruction:


John 13:34
A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.


It is the evidence that we are of Jesus the Christ:


John 13:35
By this shall all [men] know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.


No matter what, great people of God, this is God's expectation. Our love must never die. No matter how things around us change. People could become more ungrateful, yet we must carry this nature. Not in foolishness or in earthly wisdom but as we walk in the Spirit.


We are children of the Living God. All is well with us.


PRAYER
Loving Father, help me to walk in Your love, that I may keep overcoming every vice of the enemy. Lord You have already given me victory and paid the price, I walk in this victory. Yes, my love is alive. Glory to Your name Lord forevermore.


He calls us blessed.


Love

TRADE WISELY

-
Isaiah 40:31 But those who wait on the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint. Many have traded their joy chasing over material things and the pleasures and satisfaction of the world. The question is "is it worth it?". Yes we must earn, work and keep improving day after day but we must remember "nothing is free". We must pay a price. So, what are we ready to sacrifice? Some have sacrificed, their: * health * peace of mind * children * marriage * calling * ministry * good name All in the bid to get material things. 2Timothy 4:10 for Demas has forsaken me, having loved this present world, and has departed for Thessalonica-- Crescens for Galatia, Titus for Dalmatia. There is always a process, we would get into trouble when we try to use the shortcut, to get it by all means and immediately. Let us be careful of what exchange we make! Let us ask like J...

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...
