God’s transforming grace is not power but love, and He desires that we allow Him to love through us.
Romans 8:29 For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren.
The ultimate goal for every believer should be to be like Jesus. He came to save the souls of men and He left us with the same assignment. That is why we ought to pursue love; Heaven recognizes love in all that we do.
Exodus 33:13-20
When Moses asked God to show him His face, God proclaimed His name to him as gracious and compassionate. The face of God is His goodness, mercy, and compassion which all sum up to love.
In Exodus 34:6, God still proclaimed His name to Moses as one who abounds in love.
Hebrews 1:3 who being the brightness of His glory and the express image of His person,…
John 3:16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.
Jesus’ appearance on earth revealed God’s love. When men wanted to see God, He hung Himself on the tree in the person of Jesus to show love.
You may not hang on the tree like Jesus but let all that you do come from a place of the revelation of God’s love to His people because love is our highest calling. (Exodus 32:11)
Ephesians 3:17-19 that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all the saints what [is] the width and length and depth and height— to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge; that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.
Love should be the reason for everything that we do. Therefore, we must cry to God to take us to that place where our love is unconditional for it is what makes giving, serving God, and sacrifices easy.
When men wanted to see God, He sent Jesus who is the express image of God. Likewise, when men want to see Jesus, they should look at you and see Him. The testimony of everyone who encountered Jesus is love. I pray that when men meet us, they may encounter the love of Jesus.
2 Corinthians 5:14 For the love of Christ compels us, because we judge thus: that if One died for all, then all died;
God is calling us back to the place of unconditional love which isn’t found in the realm of men. It must compel you to cry out to Him because Kingdom business can only be done by men and women full of love.
STAY BLESSED AND HIGHLY FAVORED, WE LOVE YOU.
