“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” – Romans 5:5
LIGHT FOR THE NOW: Divine love is not something to be prayed for;
it is a feature of your recreated human spirit.
Christianity is all about the demonstration of
divine love. 1 John 4:8 says, “He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God
is love”. God is love personified. He demonstrated His love towards us
in that He gave Christ to die for us while we yet sinners (Romans 5:8). When
you are born again, you become born of God. Therefore, if God who is love by
nature gave birth to you, then you are a child of love and love personified.
Divine love is not something to be prayed for; it is a feature of your
recreated human spirit. Galatians 5:22 says, “But the fruit of the spirit is
love…” what is therefore expected of you as a born again child of God
is to demonstrate the love that is stored up in your heart, and be a blessing
to your world. Be an oasis of love in a troubled world.
Jesus, in John 14:15 says, “If ye
love me; keep my commandments”. An example of His commandment is that
we go into the world and preach the gospel to every creature (Mark 16:15). You
will be demonstrating the love of God to your world when you reach out to othes
with the gospel of Christ. 2 Corinthians 5:14 says, “For the love of Christ
constraineth us…” We are propelled by His love to preach the Gospel, just as He
was propelled by love to take the place of sinful men on the cross. He was the
expression and communication of the love of God.
INSTRUCTION: Share the love of God to
others.
PRAYER: Lord, thank you for loving me and taking my
place on the cross, in Jesus Name. Amen.
QUOTE: God is love personified.
