SCRIPTURE: Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal. 1 Corinthians 13:1.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: If love is powerful, it means, you become powerful in life when you walk in love.
It has been confirmed that love is the most powerful force on the earth.
Love is the most powerful force because of the following reasons:
i. God Himself is love.
God is Love, and God is the most powerful Personality on the face of the earth. If God is love, then love is powerful.
ii. Love created the earth.
In the beginning, God created the heaven and the earth (Genesis 1:1). Since God is Love, this means, in the beginning, Love created the heavens and the earth.
iii. Love is stronger than death.
Song of Solomon 8:6 says,
Set me as a seal upon thine heart, as a seal upon thine arm: for love is strong as death;
Love is stronger than death.
In 1 Samuel 30:11-12, we saw a man who was about to die, but David and his servants found him and showed him love, and he came back to life. Indeed, love is stronger than death.
In John 8:3-11, a woman was caught in adultery and was meant to be stoned to death, but Love (Jesus, the Son of GOD) rescued her.
It was love that brought back Lazarus from the grave. (John 11:35-36). When Jesus wept, the people acknowledged how much He loved Lazarus. Jesus’ passion for Lazarus brought Lazarus back to life.
Love defeated the devil at the Cross of Calvary. Love defeated hell, death and the grave at the Cross.
Matthew 20:18-19 says,
Behold, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man shall be betrayed unto the chief priests and unto the scribes, and they shall condemn him to death, And shall deliver him to the Gentiles to mock, and to scourge, and to crucify him: and the third day he shall rise again.
You see, hatred buried love, but love could not be buried. On the third day, Love resurrected.
If love is powerful, it means you become powerful in life when you walk in love. If love is this powerful, then it is important to walk in the realm of love.
Beloved, make up your mind to walk in love to connect the Nature and Power of God.
Remember this: If love is powerful, it means you become powerful in life when you walk in love.
ASSIGNMENTS:
- By all means, refuse to walk in hatred.
- Ask God to saturate your heart with His love so you can walk in His Power and authority.
PRAYER: Lord, I ask that You rid me of every spirit of hatred from my heart. I receive a fresh baptism of love, Lord, in Jesus’ Name.
