FAITH CAPSULE: The message from God is for all to love God.
1 Corinthians 13
Under heaven, if the acclaimed believers know God not know about God, darkness should not be prevailing as much as it is today.
Many are gathering as a believer of God but far from God, with no room for the word of God taking over the way of life.
As a believer, in your place of assumed worshiping ground, are you expecting the move of the power of God?
Expecting the power of God where there is no love for God to keep the word of God is self-deception. 1 John 4:8 admonishes, “He who does not love does not know God, for God is love.”
The message from God is for all to love God.
Today, seek and give self to the message of God for all creation.
1John1:5 also identifies the message of God, “This is the message which we have heard from Him and declares to you, that God is light and in Him is no darkness at all.” God is light, and one that knows Him shall reflect Him. Without a doubt, if acclaimed believers thronging ground of worship in the name of God knows God, indeed truth, darkness would probably have disappeared on the face of the earth.
Today, the darkness of wickedness is hoovering the whole world.
With self-sincerity, have a desire that God will search you has the Psalmist 139:23-24 records, “Search me, O God, and know my heart; Try me, and know my anxieties; And see if there is any wicked way in me, And lead me in the way everlasting.” Search self to know God by His word, rather than to know about God.
Know God by keeping His commandment.
1John 2:3-5 testifies, “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.”
Get to know God to know the love of God.
1Corinthians 13:4-8 records the love of God, “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.”
With a desire for God to take charge of your life, prayerfully ask God to enable you.
Prayer for today: Ask for the word of God to be established over your life.
