LOVE DEFINED

LOVE DEFINED I John 4:7-11 Devotional:- “He who does not love does not know God, for God is love” (V.8) NKJV Today, many people have been put into great trouble simply because they are looking for love. Since the nature of man cannot enjoy living without a lover, everyone searches for one wholeheartedly. If you find anyone who says he doesn’t need love from anyone, he is not sincere. He will soon find himself in desperate need of love. Since love is a universal need, men always seek for it, and most people never find it. There are quite a lot of things men term love, which are not, and has inturn misled and confused them. Until you can define your need, you may not have them met. This necessitates the need to truly define love. The scripture we read today gave us the true meaning of love. And you will be wise to embrace the word of God. It said, “God is love” (1 John 4:8). This mean God is love personified. It is His character and attitude. You can always define God as love. That is t...

UNITY

UNITY

Devotional:- Genesis 11:1-6

And the LORD said, “Indeed the people are one and they all have one language, and this is what they begin to do; now nothing that they propose to do will be withheld from them” (v.6) NKJV

A trick of the devil, the church must come up to overcome today, is the spirit of division and self-centeredness. The body of Jesus has to come up with the understanding that the diversity of the gift and ability of the Holy Spirit is not for division but for unity, edification, and to build a strong body of Christ that will be stronger than all devices of the devil.

Unity is a strength ordained for the church. That was what the people building the Tower of Babel were tapping into. God’s word calls it an anointing [Psalm 133:1-3]. Your family needs that anointing, your business needs it, and your local assembly needs it.

The church must be very careful of disunity. The moment someone has a little light or some gift, he thinks he will need to go and stand alone. But he will soon discover that he is not self-sufficient. This is how the body of Christ has not been able to evangelise the world today. The devil tricked the church into division by the gifts.

Friend, except otherwise instructed, stay in your local church with your gift. It’s never going to be easy. Wherever you find people, you are bound to find misunderstandings. But don’t let that make you detach yourself from the house of God. As the church lives in great strength of God shall be available through the church to the world. Peace!

Prayer: Lord, give me the grace to unite in strength and progress 

“THE STRENGTH OF UNITY IS NOT EASILY DEFEATED”.
