Hello Everyone,
Today I want to take a small detour from talking about the attributes of love to issue a warning about our study. Over the last couple of weeks, I have had more opportunities to be unloving than I can remember in the last year.
For instance, just this morning I was sitting in Starbucks reading and going through my daily routine. When I got done, I had to take my SUV over to get the air conditioner fixed. While I was driving through downtown Fort Worth, I turned onto a street and pulled up a little and stopped (I was playing Pokemon Go). When I did, the lady behind me honked her horn at me for stopping. Now she couldn't see me so she has no idea I did this but I immediately said something ugly to her. Why? Because the devil doesn't want me to learn to really walk in love.
He met someone 2,000 years ago who walked in perfect love all the days of his life, Jesus. Guess what, the devil couldn't touch him because perfected Love was Jesus' shield and protection. Love is another name for God and he was walking in perfect God all the days he was here and it protected Him. Now I am not saying we are going to be perfect because we miss the mark sometime. But what I am saying is that the more we walk in Love, the more impact we have on this earth.
Jesus walk was so different that it impacted the people around Him long before he ever died on the cross for our sins. See the devil doesn't want me (or you) to walk in Love because he knows it will drive out his only weapon - fear. The Bible says that perfect love casts out fear. It also says that Love never fails.
So are you believing for a loved one to turn to Jesus? Are you believing for a situation to change at work or at your school? Are you believing for restoration in a relationship? Are you believing that you can change something in your life that you don't like? Are you battling addiction? The list of questions could go on and on. But what's the answer to any of these problems? The answer is perfected love.
I know my love walk is not perfect. I also know that perfected love lives inside me right now and He is working on my behalf to get me to the right place. Are you struggling with the whole "God thing?" Would you like to have perfect love living inside you? You might say something like, "You don't know what I did. I did something that nothing can fix. I did something really bad and God can't love me." Well have I got news for you. Jesus' blood was shed for ALL sin. No matter what you did, Jesus' blood is stronger. Would you like to start a relationship with Him right now? All you have to do is say, "Jesus, come into my heart. I make you my Lord and Savior." That's it. If you said that prayer and believed it, something just happened inside you. You got born again and that Perfect Love now lives inside you.
If you prayed that prayer, would you please let me know. Also, please find a good Bible based church so you can start to learn more about the Love that has been put into your heart.
