SCRIPTURE: Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law. Romans 13:10.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Godly character manifests in you when love is in place in your life.

Our anchor Scripture reveals that releasing the nature of love in you is fulfilling the Scripture.

That is, when you understand the walk of love, you don’t need to memorize the law or remember the commandments one-by-one. This is because when you walk in love, you naturally keep the commandments.

A major implication of this is that love makes walking in godly character automatic. Godly character manifests in you when love is in place in your life. Your godly character and virtues are naturally released and expressed when you walk in love. When you walk in love, you release the fruit of the Spirit. You won’t struggle to please God or live right if you walk in love.

On the contrary, when there is no love, there is character bankruptcy. All forms of evil behaviour in people manifest when there is no love (2 Timothy 3:1-5).

2 Timothy 3:3 reveals that in the last days, people shall be without natural affection.

And to be without natural affection is to be callous in nature.
Other Bible versions render the phrase “without natural affection” this way:
“They will be unloving and unforgiving…”
NLT
“[They will be] without natural [human] affection (callous and inhuman)…”
AMP
“They will be unkind, merciless,…”
GNT
“Without natural love, bitter haters,…”
BBE
“…and lack normal affection for their families…”
