Just believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me. Or at least believe because of the work you have seen me do.
John 14:11 NLT
The Christian walk of faith is all about love, God’s agape love.
God is love. Everything He does is motivated by His perfect, unfailing love.
When we walk in the love of God, it’s not us that’s doing it, it’s the Christ in us that is. The Spirit of God motivates us to will and to act in the ways that please God.
To love like God is not humanly possible in our carnal natures. It takes the Holy Spirit living in us to regenerate our hearts and turn them from selfishness to selflessness.
When we look at Jesus, we see the love of God in human form. Jesus is in the Father and the Father is in Him. Jesus is in the love of God and the love of God is in Him. We recognize that by His words and His works validate it.
These works are miracles. Miracles are fueled by compassion. God answers prayers when we’re not selfish, but instead moved by compassion for others. The power of God is hidden inside the love of God. Everything God does is good and loving. Be ready to receive the love of God and share it freely with others. This is ministry as God intended. Love one another.
Dear friends, let us continue to love one another, for love comes from God. Anyone who loves is a child of God and knows God.
But anyone who does not love does not know God, for God is love.
God showed how much he loved us by sending his one and only Son into the world so that we might have eternal life through him.
This is real love — not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as a sacrifice to take away our sins.
Dear friends, since God loved us that much, we surely ought to love each other.
No one has ever seen God. But if we love each other, God lives in us, and his love is brought to full expression in us.
And God has given us his Spirit as proof that we live in him and he in us.
1 John 4:7-13 NLT
The Spirit of God is the Spirit of Love and Truth. Speak the truth in love and so build up one another in the most holy faith.
God moves mountains when we love each other with pure hearts. Mountains of worry, fear and doubt disappear with a word in season.
Don’t doubt the love of God for you. Do you have the Holy Spirit? Then that’s your guarantee that He will save you and He will love you forever and never abandon you.
Rest in His love. Enter into His rest. Abide in His Love and prove to the world that God exists and He loves them, too. You are a messenger of God. The message lives inside you. The message is Love.
Faithfully pursue the will of God and God will give you everything you never knew you needed. I am able to do abundantly more than you could possibly think or imagine, says the Lord.
Father in Heaven, sanctify Your Church. Prepare Your Bride for the Marriage Supper of the Lamb. Refine us in Your fire to make us pure and holy. Let Your Love shine forth in everything we do and say. In the Mighty Name of Jesus we pray. Amen.
All who declare that Jesus is the Son of God have God living in them, and they live in God. We know how much God loves us, and we have put our trust in his love. God is love, and all who live in love live in God, and God lives in them.
