FAITH CAPSULE: It is the love of God not the lobbying for love with the gift that counts before God.

John 4:1-42

Running around for a gift to dispose of it without love is a lobby to gain attention. In this season, at all season give out the love of God as a gift. Man, that is giving out love which is the gift of God is to gain from God.
Are you giving out the gift of love? It is those who know to embrace the gift of God that know to give out with God’s love. Jesus is the indescribable gift of God for all man.  He is not the gift of God to be purchased with money!
Search your self in all your lobbying with a gift to gain man’s attention instead of God’s attention. All the gift that matters to God is to embrace and give out the love of God.
One that does not love God will not give out love which counts before God. To love God is to fear God which is the will of God for all man. With the fear of God is to be in God. Ecclesiastes 12:13 admonished us stating, “Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God and keep His commandment, for this is man’s all.”
The love of God and the fear of God is living a life consistent to obey His commandments. Is your running around for a gift to dispose of it with God’s love?
Apostle Paul points it out that the purpose of God’s command is to love God. He stated, “Now the purpose of the commandment is love from a pure heart, from a good conscience, and from sincere faith, from which some, having strayed, have turned aside to idle talk.” (1Timothy 1:5-6) Paul was not talking about the love that flows from the tips of lips. Paul was talking about the love which counts before God. It is the love of God not the lobbying for love with the gift that counts before God.
Running around for a gift to dispose of it without love is engaging religion without Christ but a mere tradition. It is important to know that the gift of God can not be purchased with money!
Jesus gave so much for all man to understand and know it that He is the gift of God for all man.
Jesus’ self-introduction to the woman of Samaria also speaks to all man today. Jesus wants us to know Him when He said, “…If you knew the gift of God, and who it is who says to you, ‘Give Me a drink,’ you would have asked Him, and He would have given you living water.” (John 4:10) Jesus is the GIFT of God for all man. It is time to come out of religion, embrace religion with Christ.

Prayer for today: Ask for the grace of God to have His way in your life.
