FAITH CAPSULE: Many are exposed to the word but not imparted by the word.

1 Corinthians 13

In the world of today, if the acclaimed believers actually know God instead of knowing about God, darkness should not be prevailing as much as it is in the world of today. Many that are gathering in the name of church are far from one heart, one soul and have nothing common.
As a believer, are you expecting the move of power in a gathering where there is no true love?
Are you expecting power of God where there is no love God of?
Today, seek and search the message from Him. It is written, “This is the message which we have heard from Him and declare to you, that God is light and in Him is no darkness at all.”(1John1:5) God is Light and it is not possible to know Him and not reflect Him. Without doubt, if most population that attends churches on Saturday or Sunday knows God indeed and in truth, darkness would probably have disappeared on the face of the earth.
Can you sincerely check yourself if you know Him? Have you heard from Him what has been declared that God is light or you have only heard about? It is important to avoid being cut off from going to spend a truthful time in His presence. Get to know God by keeping His word rather than knowing about.
Knowing God is keeping His commandment as stated in 1John 2:3-5, “Now by this we know that we know Him, if we keep His commandments. He who says, “I know Him,” and does not keep His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. But whoever keeps His word, truly the love of God is perfected in him. By this we know that we are in Him.” It is very true that, when we love as God requires from us then we know that we know Him.
The love that is required from us is not the love in word or in tongue but it is the unconditional love as recoded in 1Corinthians 13:4-8, “Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails. But whether there are prophecies, they will fail; whether there are tongues, they will cease; whether there is knowledge, it will vanish away.” Obey His command and be His light.

Prayer for today: Ask for the grace to truly live by the word of God.
