John13vs34-35
34 A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another.
35 By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.”
Phil2vs1-3
1 Therefore if there is any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any affection and mercy,
2 fulfill my joy by being like-minded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind.
3 Let nothing be done through selfish ambition or conceit, but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than himself.
4 Let each of you look out not only for his own interests, but also for the interests of others.
Rom13vs8
8 Owe no one anything except to love one another, for he who loves another has fulfilled the law.
We are in the me only generation
A time when everything is all about you and you alone
It is either me or no one
If I do not make it other people cannot make it also
If I do not get it no one can have it
Wow
This kind of mindset is not from above
It is not Jesus kind of life
The Lord Jesus has changed that narrative long time ago
He is the same yesterday
He is the same today
He is the same tomorrow
He is the same God forever
As a matter of fact He is the God of the future
God is love
He is the God of the living
Remember yesterday we talked about Christians dont die
He says I am the God of Abraham Isaac and Jacob
These guys are alive
He is the God of the future
The prophetic
That is why we as Christians are encouraged to prophesy into our future
Open your mouth wide and He will fill it
However to fully associate with Jesus and be more like Him
Love is the bedrock of our faith
More love and more of God
When you love you start looking like and resembling God
God loves those who love
You want more of God
Love love and love
Love God with all your heart
Love your neighbor as yourself
God is calling us to love one another
Let us not be like the people in the world who will do anything to get to the top
Some people do not mind stepping on heads to climb the ladder of promotion
Some people dont mind losing it all as long as everyone lost it
Some people prefer to have it all and no one will have anything
It is all about them
God said it should be all about others
Not all about you
God is love
He wants you and me to love our neighbors like ourselves
We prefer the well-being of other people more than ourselves
We look out for them
We pray for them
How many times do you spend praying for yourself and your needs
God is saying spend time to pray for other people
Pray for the sick
Pray for the sinners
Pray for your friends
Pray for your enemies
Some people only think about their own needs
It is me me me and me only
Do you care about the needs of other people
Take some time to give to the poor
Give to your parents
Give to your pastors
Give to your friends
Give to your family
Give to your children
Give to everyone around you
Give your money
Give your talent
Give your prayers
Love is expressed by giving
For God so love that He gave
You know unbelievers have a foundation where they give to the needy
How much more you and me
Start your own foundation today
Do not live for yourself alone
Live and cater to the needs of other people around you
The Lord will help you
He will give you peace
He will grant you the grace and capacity to love like Jesus
You really do not owe anyone anything
But the only thing we owe other people is to love them
To love your neighbor as yourself
Christ is enough for us
Everything you need is in Him
If we claim we love God and hate anyone we know
The Bible says that love is fake
To show that we love God
We also must love the brethren
We care about them
What a privilege that we are called children of the Highest
Children of light
Light is love
Love is a symbol of our faith
He first loves us
He asks us to love our neighbors and also love Him
The practical example of loving our neighbors is to give
Give our time
Give our prayers
Give our resources
It is more blesses to give than to receive
May God bless you
May His love rule your heart
May Christ dwell in you richly
May your prayers be answered
We are in the last days
The last days as Jesus talked about it in Mathew twenty-four
To make it through
You need the DNA of the father
That DNA is love
Love fulfills all the laws and commandments of God
Love wins
May God grant you the fullness of love that flows from within
At the river of life
The river of love
Amen
