Topic: God's Kind of Love.
For reading and Meditation: Mark 12:28-31.
*Thought:* Love is not an emotion has many as taken it to be. it is a fruit evident upon the life of a man by the holy spirit.
*Memory Verse:* John 15:13 "Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends."
What is Love? Have you known love to be a kind of irrational feeling you have most especially for the opposite sex has many has defined it to be?
Beloved, I want you to know today that God's kind of love know no gender, blood or relative.
It is not a feeling but a seed planted upon the heart of a man by the holy spirit. It grows gradually through consistent and intentional care to become a fruit that abides.
Apostle Paul never made a mistake by putting Love as the first fruit of the Spirit because it is through it by the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ that we are brought into Fellowship with the spirit himself. So, it wasn't a mistake or error putting that great mother of all Virtues as the first fruit of the Spirit.
God himself demonstrated this Love to us by giving is ONLY begotten son to die for that which he didn't committed just to see us free from the captivity of the devil and Sin. (John 3:16).
This kind of Love demonstrated by God to us has since been the Kind which should be found among us today but it is so painful to see that the kind which dwell among men today is the fleshy kind of Love.
Let us look at a question in Matthew 5:46
"For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same?"
What did John 3:16 says ".....God so Loved the world". He didn't Love them that love him but "ALL". It was never a game of giving unto only those who love his son. It was a perfection of the Inestimable kind of Love he has that he still Love us while we are yet Sinners.
Jesus also putting Love as the First commandment never made a mistake. And of truth, the devil must be aware of the great potency of this fruit of the Spirit and this is why he tends to put emnity between Man and God from time to time so as to bridge the gap of God's Love radiating to such a man.
According to Ephesians 3:19 only the Love of Christ can bring us into the fullness of God.
The other fruits of the Spirit would become needless or ineffective without bearing Love first.
How well do you Love God? To love God is very easy as it only comes with doing what he needs us do.
John 14:15 If ye love me, keep my commandments. It is as simple as that. Keeping his commandments is proportional to how well you Love and fear him.
How do you Love a fellow man?
By doing unto him or her as you would to yourself. By doing unto them that which would be pleasurable to God.
I pray the holy spirit refreshes our heart this morning to love as God love us. Amen!
*Assignment:* Write out two strong areas you know you have not been thorough acting in Love towards fellow men. Made adjustments!
Prayer Points: Holy spirit, I pray much the fruit of Love that it dwells within and around me in the name of Jesus. Amen!
