LOVING IS LIVING: DIVINE LOVE

LOVING IS LIVING: DIVINE LOVE – A MORE EXCELLENT WAY!

Stop struggling to love. You are not born of God to survive or be a survival in love. You are born of God to thrive, blossom and colour your worlds in love. We are born of God in Christ Jesus to radiate His love shared lavishly in our hearts – human spirit, by the Holy Spirit that dwells in us. For GOD IS LOVE and as such, LOVE Is of God. And LOVING is LIVING.

The most excellent way to enjoy and express God’s love, is the resolve to be the love GIVER than to DEMAND for love. Genuine LOVE GIVES. For God so love, He gave. Until you resolve to be the love giver, rather than the one demanding for love, you will struggle to express love in an excellent way. And the excellent way of genuine living is emboldened in love.

SCRIPTURES WORTH PONDERING:

GOD IS LOVE; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him. 17 HEREIN IS OUR LOVE MADE PERFECT, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: BECAUSE AS HE IS, SO ARE WE IN THIS WORLD. 18 There is no FEAR IN LOVE; BUT PERFECT LOVE CASTETH OUT FEAR: BECAUSE FEAR HATH TORMENT. He that feareth is not made perfect in love . . .” 1John 4:7-21.

People of wealth are envied.

People of power are feared.

But only people of CHARACTER are TRUSTED”

   – Arthur Friedman

** Be it known that the good of riches, friends, certificates, politics, charisma, enterprise and such like the more, may take you to the top, but only INTEGRITY will keep and sustain you there.

** And CHARACTER and INTEGRITY are made possible by the indwelling precious, gracious and graceful Holy Spirit, which is given to us in the WORD.

** “When wealth is lost, nothing is lost; when health is lost, something is lost; when CHARACTER is lost, ALL is lost”

 – Billy Graham

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“Finally, brethren, whatever things are TRUE, whatever things are NOBLE, whatever things are JUST, whatever things are PURE, whatever things are LOVELY, whatever things are of GOOD REPORT, if there is any VIRTUE and if there is anything PRAISEWORTHY—meditate on these things” Philippians 4:8.

“Therefore I endure all things for the sake of the elect, that they also may obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory. 11 This is a FAITHFUL SAYING: For if we died with Him, We shall also live with Him. 12 If we endure, We shall also reign with Him. If we deny Him, He also will deny us” 2 Timothy 2:10-12.

“But reject profane and old wives’ fables, and EXERCISE yourself toward godliness. 8 For BODILY exercise profits a little, but GODLINESS is profitable for all things, having promise of the life that now is and of that which is to come. 9 This is a FAITHFUL SAYING and worthy of all acceptance. 10 For to this end we both labor and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Savior of all men, especially of those who believe” 1 Timothy 4:7-10.

“That having been JUSTIFIED by His grace we should become heirs according to the hope of eternal life. 8 This is a FAITHFUL SAYING, and these things I want you to affirm constantly, that those who have believed in God should be careful to MAINTAIN good works. These things are GOOD and PROFITABLE to men” Titus 3:7-8.

“But the FRUIT (CHARACTER) of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law. 24 And those who are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. 25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit” Galatians 5:22-25.

WISDOM NUGGETS: The FAITH That WORKS – PLEASES God through DILIGENCE!

The FAITH that WORKS, that is, productive and results oriented, is the FAITH that Is expressed through DILIGENCE. For diligence pleases God, locates and positions one effortlessly with kings – nobles and dignity.

And when you PLEASE God by your diligent ways, He makes the ENEMY and COHORTS to be at PEACE with you. What a better way to keep your enemy and cohorts at bay effortless in LIFE and GRACE, in order to keep you advancing the Kingdom Causes of our God.

And DILIGENCE is to be steadfast, consistent, that is – consistently consistence onto the focus and being SMART – effectual and efficient to the desired intent.

Know full well that life in grace is not by HARDWORKING, it’s by being SMARTWORKING.

The FAITH That WORKS – PLEASES God through DILIGENCE. And PLEASING God REWARDS Through DILIGENCE.

SELAH – PAUSE & THINK: Be WISE!

“But without FAITH it is impossible to PLEASE him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that DILIGENTLY seek him” Hebrews 11:6.

“When a man’s ways PLEASE the Lord, he maketh even his ENEMIES to be at PEACE with him” Proverbs 16:7.

“Seest thou a man DILIGENT in his business? he shall stand before kings (nobles, dignity); he shall not stand before mean men” Proverbs 22:29 (Emphasis Mine).

SCRIPTURAL MEDITATION: The FAITH That WORKS

By Leave a Comment

SCRIPTURAL MEDITATION: The FAITH That WORKS – OPERATES In LOVE!

The FAITH that WORKS it’s found in them that LOVES God. Do you LOVE God? The reason being this: ALL THINGS will always WORK for those who LOVES God as they walk in the Kingdom Cause of God’s PURPOSE for them. Meaning, they are addicted to walk in OBEDIENCE to God’s WORD to win life battles through FAITH (1John 5:3-5). FOR GOD WILL ALWAYS COMMEND WHAT HE COMMAND.

For FAITH works by LOVE. Until LOVE is enthroned in our hearts, in our day-to-day dealings with God and others, in RELATIONSHIP and FELLOWSHIP – there will always be a struggle in attaining to the FREEDOM we seek.

For LOVE is the summation of the LAW, and it’s unparalleled to the bondages of bye laws, traditions, oblations, creeds and dogmas of man-made enclaves to reach or please God in Christ Jesus.

Therefore – THINK. PONDER. MEDITATE.

“And we know that ALL THINGS WORK together for good to them that LOVE God, to them who are THE CALLED according to his purpose” Romans 8:28.

“Owe no man anything, but to LOVE one another: FOR HE THAT LOVETH ANOTHER HATH FULFILLED THE LAW. 9 For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if there be any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. 10 LOVE worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore LOVE is the FULFILLING OF THE LAW” Romans 13:8-10.

Further Scriptural Meditation: Galatians 5:6, 13-14; 1 Corinthians 13; John 3:16; 1 Timothy 1:5; John 13:1; 1 John 5:3; Luke 10:27.

SCRIPTURAL TRUTH: ENLIGHTENING YOUR WORLD BY YOUR LIGHT – BY HIS LIGHT IN OUR DARKNESS!

You can only ENLIGHTEN others by the ENLIGHTENMENT that you have RECEIVED in you of God. And only by the ENTRANCE of the WORD in you can you be able to GIVE LIGHT and ENLIGHTENMENT to others.

Therefore, be engrossed with THE WORD, that you might both RECEIVE LIGHT and be ABLE to ENLIGHTEN others by THE WORD, in and out of DARKNESS.

IT’S YOUR MOMENT OF ENLIGHTENING YOUR WORLD BY YOUR LIGHT – BY HIS LIGHT IN OUR DARKNESS.

SELAH-PAUSE AND THINK.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“Thy WORD is a LAMP unto my FEET, and a LIGHT unto my PATH . . . 130 The ENTRANCE of thy WORDS giveth LIGHT; it giveth UNDERSTANDING unto the SIMPLE” Psalms 119:105, 130.

“You ARE the LIGHT of the WORLD. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden.  15 Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it GIVES LIGHT to all who are in the house.  16 Let your LIGHT so SHINE before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven” Matthew 5:14-16.

“For God, who commanded THE LIGHT TO SHINE OUT OF DARKNESS, hath SHINED IN OUR HEARTS, TO GIVE THE LIGHT OF THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE GLORY OF GOD in the face of Jesus Christ” 2 Corinthians 4:6.

It Is Written – THE FAITH THAT WORKS

It Is Written – THE FAITH THAT WORKS: The Power Of The Written WORD!

I love photo or pictorial info. I love video info. But the Written Info, surpassed them all in my worlds of grace and life. It takes the WRITTEN WORD to create the potential PICTURED WORD to BECOME the Motion and Kinetic VIDEO WORD. It’s simply for this knowing and Understanding:

** FAITH to do life with God comes by HEARING, the HEARING of the WORD of God – Romans 10:17. FAITH does not come by HAVING HEARD, but by the HEARING – present tense continuous. However, to be APPROVED of God of that FAITH, it comes by STUDYING the WRITTEN WORD of God.

** The acts to and of study requires – READING, MEDITATING which is PONDERING THROUGH the WRITTEN WORD and AFFIRMING the WRITTEN WORD in our human spirit by the Holy Spirit until it takes hold of ones total being.

** And as one begins to make a declaration, that is – testifying or proclaiming or announcing or professing and confessing of the affirmed WORD in our human spirit by the Holy Spirit, we create the atmosphere and realms of the worlds of God, which we enjoy in our REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus. Amen.

Hence it’s at the WRITTEN WORD that the consciousness of the Living WORD which is the Revealed WORD through STUDY, is developed and transformed into the Incarnate WORD – The WORD that BECOMES flesh, that’s the reality, the tangible and truth in real life terms for one to enjoy in Christ Jesus.

HENCE JESUS IN HUMANITY SAID – “IT IS WRITTEN” (Matthew 4:1-11), NOT IT IS PICTORIAL or VIDEO to enable Him put the Devil and cohorts at bay. It’s simply for the implication of the POWER of the WRITTEN WORD to other means of life communications which I don’t undermine at all.

Therefore don’t take the WRITTEN WORD for granted because of the Picture and Video format of the multimedia worlds, if the WORD of God must be incarnate – a reality and tangible in your life through FAITH.

“STUDY to shew thyself APPROVED unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth” 2 Timothy 2:15.

“Ye men of Israel, hear these words; Jesus of Nazareth, a man APPROVED of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know” Acts 2:22.

“And the WORD was MADE FLESH, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth” John 1:14.
