NATURE OF LOVE

  NATURE OF LOVE I Corinthians 13:1-8  Devotional:- "suffers long and is kind .. does not envy.. does not parade itself…” (V. 4). Since men do not have the actual understanding of love, they turn it into lust. And now it is lust most people call love. It is the reason for most frustration and discouragement today. The scripture we read today revealed to us the true nature of love. It reveals to us that no man’s service shall be acceptable or profitable until he puts in love (v. 1-3). The beautiful thing about the nature oflove is that it is the nature of God, for God is love (1 John 4:8). And if God dwells in us, love should also be demonstrated in us. The scripture says, love suffers long, that is why God loves to forgive his own people. Several times we have turned away from him, yet He does not turn away from us. He still looks for us. So also we should do for all we love. Love is kind, and that is why God has been kind to us. He doesn’t condemn us; He wants us to repent (E...

THE UNSTOPPABLE KINGDOM

THE UNSTOPPABLE KINGDOM       

Read: Mark 4:30-32
But when it is sown, it grows up and becomes greater than all herbs, and shoots out large branches, so that the birds of the air may nest under its shade.” (Vs. 32)

    There is no power or force that can stop God. So, His kingdom operations are unstoppable. If anyone tries to stop the kingdom of God, such will have to stop living (Luke 20:18). That is why as a citizen of the kingdom of God, you are unstoppable.
 
    Jesus likened the kingdom of God to a small seed called the mustard seed. Though the smallest of all seeds, when it is sown, it soon become a great tree that all birds want to take solace in. The seed of God is His word and His spirit (Mark 4:14). I call it the Spirit of the word (John 6:63, Ezekiel 2:2). Wherever the word of God is, there will be possibility and greatness. Jesus also gave a parable of the sower and great were the fruits (Luke 8:4-8).
 
    Friend, the seed of God to greatness is His word. When the Spirit of the word comes upon you, anything you embark on will prosper. This seed makes you operate at the realm of God. It also makes you bigger than all barriers (John 10:34-35). This is a rhema from God. The Spirit of the word comes upon you as you wait on God in meditation on the word and in prayers. (Isaiah 40:31). When a seed is of God, it will surely germinate, succeed and soon become great (I John 5:4; Matthew 16:18-19). Keep speaking the word into your situations because it is unstoppable. Peace!
 
Prayer: Lord, make me enjoy your unstoppable grace.
 
“WHEN THE WORD IS ALWAYS IN YOUR MOUTH, THE RESULT WILL ALWAYS BE GREAT”
