KEEP LOVIING

Text : 1 John 4:20 

Whoever says, “I love God,” but hates his brother is a liar. The one who does not love his brother whom he has seen cannot love the God whom he has not seen.

The only thing you are permitted to owe anyone and everyone is love. 

"Do not owe anyone anything—except to love one another. For the one who loves another has fulfilled the Law."Rom 13:8.

The only way to show you love God is by loving the people you see. You have been called, not just to love God only, but to love your neighbors too. This is the royal law all believers are commanded to fulfill. 

If ye fulfil the royal law according to the scripture, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself, ye do well:James 2:8. 

Some people are so difficult to love. No matter what you do to them,  they are naturally wired to pay back with evil. But we are not told to love only those that are easy to love, rather, you are to love all men. 1 Thessalonians 3:12. As a matter of fact Jesus told us to love our enemies. 

'You have heard that it was said, ‘You must love your neighbor’ and hate your enemy.

But I say to you, love your enemies, and pray for those who persecute you''. Matthew 5:43-44.

This is our Master's express instruction to us. It is not dependent on the actions and inactions of the recipient, your love must be unconditional. 

In reality,  no man can give an unconditional love except by the help of the Holy Ghost. 

'And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us'.Rom 5:5. That is,  this type of love (Agape) belongs exclusively to God, it can only be expressed, understood,  and communicated through His Spirit that He has given to us. 

So to *KEEP LOVING* you have to do it in the power of the Holy Ghost. Anything outside this, is not the-God-kind of love. 

 *Have you received this Holy Spirit?* It is the Holy Spirit of God that gives us power to do the extraordinary. Acts 1:8.

 *If you ask the Father today,  He will give His Holy Spirit to you, so you can *KEEP LOVING.* 

 *'If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?'Luke 11:13* .* 

Bible reading: 1 Cor. 13:1-13.

THE GOOD FIGHT-2

Text:  1 Timothy  6:12   Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. Another thing to pursue in fighting the good fight of faith is Godliness. We understand through the Holy scriptures that godliness is profitable unto all things.   *For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.* 1 Timothy  4:8.  You will reap the reward of your godliness not only when you get to heaven, but from here on earth. And this is why we are admonished to exercise ourselves unto godliness. (1 Timothy  4:7), because godliness with contentment is great gain.1 Timothy  6:6. Godliness is the practice of conforming to the image of God by reflecting the nature of the kingdom of God in the course of everyday life. In other words, godliness is living and portray...

IT IS WRITTEN AGAIN

Text: Matthew 4:6. He told Jesus, “Since you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, because it is written,   ‘God will put his angels in charge of you,’ and,   ‘With their hands they will hold you up, so that you will never hit your foot against a rock.’ Jesus knocked devil off with "it is written" when he came to him with the first temptation. So, the devil too decided to use "it is written" for Jesus for the second temptation.  Don't be deceived, the devil knows the scriptures too. Second Corinthians 11:14 says,  "Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light." So, it's no surprise when you see Satan's messengers masquerading themselves as Apostle of Christ. 2 Corinthians 11:14.  The word of God is perfect. Yet, many people can twist it to their advantage and ultimately to their disadvantage. A drunk, smoker, fornicator, liar and all sort can justify their sinful lifestyles with a Bible verse. See to it that you do not twist the word of Go...

TIME IN ETERNITY

Text : Psalms 90:12  So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom._  Our God dwells in eternity past, present and future. In between these phases of eternity, He created man to dwell in Time. When man sinned, he fell short of God's plan, and death came in.(Rom 3:23). Death therefore short circuit man's life in eternity. This is the reason Jesus.came.  He had to come into TIME in order to remove the PAUSE  death HAD on man.  For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:16.  Every man born into this world automatically becomes an eternal being. The question therefore is, which side of eternity would such a man dwell? Everlasting life or Everlasting condemnation? Time is an opportunity given to man to trade for eternal life. You have limited time to exchange for eternal life in eternity.  Time offers you the opportunity to ga...
