TEXT: Mark 12:30. “And you shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.” Jesus is always raising the standard when it comes to obedience to God’s commandments. He said He did not come to abolish the law, but to fulfil it and reveal the heart and purpose behind it. (Matthew 5:17). In Mark 12:30, Jesus made it clear that our love for God must involve every part of our being. We are to love Him with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength.  Like it was established yesterday, this means that God should not receive only a portion of your love, attention, devotion, or commitment. He desires your complete and total surrender. It is natural to love those who love us, appreciate those who appreciate us, and respond kindly to those who treat us well. However, Jesus raised the standard even higher. He taught us...

THE COMMANDMENT OF LOVE.

He said:  *“You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.”  (Matthew 22:37)*  Then He added: “You shall love your neighbour as yourself.”  (Matthew 22:39). These two commandments summarize the heart and act of Christian living. Our relationship with God is demonstrated by our love for Him, and our relationship with people is demonstrated by our love for them. The first and greatest commandment is to love God with all our heart, soul, mind and strength. God does not desire a relationship in which He receives only a small portion of...

KNOWING AND KEEPING.

Follow His Voice Devotional 👇 https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029VbCMZTK2f3EJoVXjd408 TEXT: 1John 2:3. This is how we can be sure that we have come to know him: if we continually keep his commandments. Knowing God is more than knowing about Him. We may know His name, His people, read the Bible, sing songs to Him or about Him, and listen to sermons, and still not know Him. That you know about the President of your nation does not mean that you really know Him. Genuine knowledge of God will produce a changed life. John gave us a practical way to examine our true knowledge of God : knowing God is tantamount to keeping His commandments? The word “keep” goes beyond hearing God's words, it's more about remembering God's Word with the aim of obeying, observing, guarding, and living by what God has commanded.  Our obedience  shows that we know and love Him. Jesus said: “If you love me, keep my commandments.”   (John 14:15). There is a connection between knowing, loving, and k...

DRAW NEAR TO GOD

https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029VbCMZTK2f3EJoVXjd408 His Voice Devotional TEXT: James 4:8    Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts,you double-minded. Our God is a faithful God. He does not reject anyone that comes to Him. He first  came to all by sending His only begotten Son, and as many that received Him, He gave power to become  Sons of God. (John 1:12). The moment you receive the LORD Jesus Christ as your Saviour and LORD, the Power to become Son of God is given to you. So, God's unconditional love was first revealed to the whole world, so that those who  believed and received His love can begin to draw near to Him.  It is therefore clear that only those who have received God's love can draw near. And if you draw near to God, He will also draw near to you.  Do not let anyone deceive you by saying that God loves all equally. Yes! He loved all (the world) equally when He sent His only ...

THE LIVING BREAD.

Follow His Voice Devotional 👇 https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029VbCMZTK2f3EJoVXjd408 TEXT: John 6:51 “I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eats of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.” Jesus made one of the most profound declarations about His identity when He said, *“I am the living bread* which came down from heaven.” He was revealing to the people that He was not merely a teacher, prophet, or miracle worker. He is the One sent from heaven to give eternal life to a dying and perishing world. After Jesus miraculously fed thousands of people with physical bread, many followed Him, hoping for more. But Jesus wanted them to understand that there was something far greater than the bread that satisfies physical hunger.  Like we have explained in the previous devotionals, Physical bread may strengthen the body for a while, but eventually, the body grows old and dies.
