The Father’s Heart – LOVE AT ITS BEST: When You Do WELCOME The Prodigal HOME!

Genuine love of God that’s pure and remarkable, is to be intentional and unreservedly living and loving beyond walls and boundaries of comfort’s but in letting God be – by loving also the prodigals in spite of and irrespective, instead of playing the elder brother’s unhinged role of distrust towards the prodigals in all measures.

For it’s while we are yet sinners that God’s love was shown to us without sentiments, prejudice and dissimulation. And God has given us such amount of His lavished gracious love by the Holy Spirit to enable us to do likewise in His grace as written:

“And hope maketh not ashamed; because the LOVE of God is SHED ABROAD IN OUR HEARTS by the Holy Ghost which is GIVEN unto us. 6 For when we were yet WITHOUT STRENGTH, in due time Christ DIED for the ungodly. 7 For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. 8 But God COMMENDETH HIS LOVE toward us, in that, while we were YET SINNERS, Christ DIED for us” Romans 5:5-8.

So, let’s have such boundless love of God in fulfilling purpose to welcome home the prodigals and give them the opportunity to share in the fellowship of the brethren to enact and enhance the relationship with the Father God in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

Be blessed in life and grace through this knowledge and understanding in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“Then He said: “A certain man had two sons.  12 And the younger of them said to his father, ‘Father, give me the portion of goods that falls to me.’ So he divided to them his livelihood.  13 And not many days after, the younger son gathered all together, journeyed to a far country, and there wasted his possessions with prodigal living.  14 But when he had spent all, there arose a severe famine in that land, and he began to be in want.  15 Then he went and joined himself to a citizen of that country, and he sent him into his fields to feed swine.  16 And he would gladly have filled his stomach with the pods that the swine ate, and no one gave him anything. 17 “But when he came to himself, he said, ‘How many of my father’s hired servants have bread enough and to spare, and I perish with hunger!  18 I will arise and go to my father, and will say to him, “Father, I have sinned against heaven and before you,  19 and I am no longer worthy to be called your son. Make me like one of your hired servants.”’ 20 “And he arose and came to his father. But when he was still a great way off, his father saw him and had compassion, and ran and fell on his neck and kissed him.  21 And the son said to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against heaven and in your sight, and am no longer worthy to be called your son.’ 22 “But the father said to his servants, ‘Bring[b] out the best robe and put it on him, and put a ring on his hand and sandals on his feet.  23 And bring the fatted calf here and kill it, and let us eat and be merry;  24 for this my son was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.’ And they began to be merry. 25 “Now his older son was in the field. And as he came and drew near to the house, he heard music and dancing.  26 So he called one of the servants and asked what these things meant.  27 And he said to him, ‘Your brother has come, and because he has received him safe and sound, your father has killed the fatted calf.’ 28 “But he was angry and would not go in. Therefore his father came out and pleaded with him.  29 So he answered and said to his father, ‘Lo, these many years I have been serving you; I never transgressed your commandment at any time; and yet you never gave me a young goat, that I might make merry with my friends.  30 But as soon as this son of yours came, who has devoured your livelihood with harlots, you killed the fatted calf for him.’ 31 “And he said to him, ‘Son, you are always with me, and all that I have is yours.  32 It was right that we should make merry and be glad, for your brother was dead and is alive again, and was lost and is found” Luke 15:11-32.

The Father’s Heart – LOVE AT ITS BEST: When You Do LOVE And PRAY For Your ENEMY And All Those That DESPISES And REVILE You!

How thankful I am to Father God by the Holy Spirit on how He taught me personally if the attitude and consciousness to maintain, and with such revelation [insights and foresights] on how to live on such level of His pedestal of grace as Scripturally set – that is, to LOVE and PRAY for any considered to be enemies and cohorts about me – and the unprecedented level of peace I have enjoyed internally within me without sentiments, prejudice and dissimulation irrespective, and the overwhelming, indescribable and unimaginable state of peaceful me to be above only always in situations – am thankful and grateful Lord.

You see, the scripture  says when a man’s way PLEASE the  Lord, the Lord makes His enemies to be at PEACE with such a person – meaning, God will ensure that all things good and bad works out for one’s good by using same enemy to work it. So, I do strive [endeavour] to ALWAYS please God as by the scriptures instead of fighting the enemy by myself [Matthew 5:43-48; Romans 12:19-21; Proverbs 25:21-22]. Knowing that Christ Jesus have already fought the battles and won for me triumphantly and victoriously. So I stand on His done work to please God rather than taking the matter’s into my hands. Meaning, committing every case into God’s hands by the scriptures in order to enjoy the available peace effortlessly in His grace.

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

“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.

“For even hereunto were ye CALLED: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an EXAMPLE, that ye should FOLLOW his steps: 22 who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth: 23 who, when he was reviled, REVILED not again; when he suffered, he THREATENED not; but COMMITTED himself to him that JUDGETH RIGHTEOUSLY” 1 Peter 2:21-23.

And I found out that to PLEASE God is by Faith. For without FAITH, it’s impossible to PLEASE God and to receive His BLESSEDNESS in the grace. For Faith is acting according to God’s word as believed in context to any subjects in the scriptures as written:

“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.

And I have also come to know that Faith does not only comes by hearing the word of God and acting upon it accordingly, but can only WORKS, meaning be operative for results through the exercise of LOVE. Faith is energised, expressed and activated to work ONLY by LOVE.

“For [if we are] in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision means anything, but only FAITH activated and expressed and WORKING through LOVE” Galatians 5:6/Amplified.

It thus means to have the Father’s heart best in us, is by loving and praying for those considered to be enemy and cohorts of the devil in human flesh – meaning they can be conquered when we PLEASE God by FAITH through LOVE on the WORD as Scripturally enjoined without reservation in the grace.

I PRAY God gives you understanding in Christ Jesus as He taught me in His grace in this CONTEXT of dealing with considered enemies and cohorts.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall LOVE your neighbor and HATE your enemy.’  44 But I say to you, LOVE YOUR ENEMIES, BLESS those who CURSE you, DO GOOD to those who HATE you, and PRAY for those who SPITEFULLY use you and PERSECUTE you,  45 that you may be sons of your Father in heaven; for He makes His sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust.  46 For if you love those who LOVE you, what reward have you? Do not even the TAX COLLECTORS do the same?  47 And if you GREET your brethren only, what do you do more than others? Do not even the TAX COLLECTORS do so?  48 Therefore you shall be PERFECT, just as your Father in heaven is perfect” Matthew 5:43-48.

“Dearly beloved, AVENGE NOT yourselves, but rather give PLACE UNTO WRATH: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord. 20 Therefore if thine ENEMY hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head. 21 Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good” Romans 12:19-21.

“If thine ENEMY be hungry, give him bread to eat; and if he be thirsty, give him water to drink: 22 for thou shalt heap coals of fire upon his head, and the Lord shall reward thee” Proverbs 25:21-22.

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

“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.

“So then FAITH cometh by HEARING, and HEARING by the WORD of God” Romans 10:17.

“For this is the LOVE of God, that we KEEP his commandments: and his commandments are not GRIEVOUS [BURDENSOME, IRKSOME, TASKMASTER]. 4 For whatsoever is born of God OVERCOMETH the world: and this is the VICTORY that OVERCOMETH the world, even our FAITH. 5 Who is he that OVERCOMETH the world, but he that BELIEVETH that Jesus is the Son of God?” 1 John 5:3-5.

The Father’s Heart – LOVE AT ITS BEST: When You Do LOVE Your NEIGHBOUR And The STRANGER!

“For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same? 47 And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so?” Matthew 5:46-47.

We live in a moment in history, wherein lots of people are so muchly engaged and entangled with the spirit of entitlement at another person cost, there making it impossible for some to share love because they are expecting to be the collector of love and not the giver of love as Scripturally enjoined:

“Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again” Luke 6:38.

More so, because of the current challenges of the unstable state of the world, community, neighbourhoods, family and such like, especially in terms of the economic atmosphere, some people are so desperate and in such a haste that the simple acts of kindness in relationship and in relating with others is diminishing. Such was the depraved of humane nature from the zealous Church folks – the Priest [Pastor] and the Levites [Choir Leader], unlike the non Church folk – the Samaritan as in Luke 10:25-37. They were  so carried away with their zealousness that they forgot the act of kindness of life resources [time, finance (cash/kind), etc] to use to help others in critical needs no matter how little [small].

“I have shewed you all things, how that so labouring ye ought to SUPPORT THE WEAK, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he said, It is MORE BLESSED to GIVE than to RECEIVE” Acts 20:35.

 And many have become so commited to matter of – things and activities and programs and such like – than having a humane commitment to their fellow human beings in times of difficulties. When someone is in trouble, people are more interested in taking photo-up to create content for others to applaud and make jest over the person rather than helping out to solve the person in trouble where need be, especially when it’s within their capacity to help in that duration of time. You can see series of unwarranted and appalling images and photos in social media depicting people of all sorts that shouldn’t be taken and more so displayed but are out there – sometimes you wonder while the person taking the photo couldn’t help that child from a wicked maid or parents or leader or whoever than spending time to take photos to the point of death of such an individual while help could have been possible.

A genuine Father hearts best is in loving one’s neighbours as Christ admonished the enquirer Lawyer about who his neighbour truly was and is, in order to do life and live godly by God in Christ Jesus stead Amen. [Luke 10:25-37].

If we truly wants to get into the father’s hearts best, we should endeavour to be humane in the midst of our busy schedule to love our neighbours as we do life and live godly in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“And, behold, a certain lawyer stood up, and tempted him, saying, Master, what shall I do to INHERIT eternal life?  26 He said unto him, What is written in the law? how READEST thou?  27 And he answering said, Thou shalt LOVE the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy NEIGHBOUR as thyself.  28 And he said unto him, Thou hast answered right: this do, and thou shalt live. 29 But he, willing to justify himself, said unto Jesus, AND WHO IS MY NEIGHBOUR?  30 And Jesus answering said, A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among thieves, which stripped him of his raiment, and wounded him, and departed, leaving him half dead.  31 And by chance there came down a certain priest that way: and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side.  32 And likewise a Levite, when he was at the place, came and looked on him, and passed by on the other side.  33 But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was: and when he saw him, he had compassion on him,  34 and went to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine, and set him on his own beast, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him.  35 And on the morrow when he departed, he took out two pence, and gave them to the host, and said unto him, Take care of him; and whatsoever thou spendest more, when I come again, I will repay thee.  36 Which now of these three, thinkest thou, was NEIGHBOUR unto him that fell among the thieves?  37 And he said, He that shewed mercy on him. Then said Jesus unto him, GO, and DO thou likewise” Luke 10:25-37.

“And one of the scribes came, and having heard them reasoning together, and perceiving that he had answered them well, asked him, Which is the first commandment of all? 29 And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord: 30 and thou shalt LOVE the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the FIRST commandment. 31 And the SECOND is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy NEIGHBOUR as thyself. THERE IS NONE OTHER COMMANDMENT GREATER THAN THESE” Mark 12:28-31.

“But the STRANGER that DWELLETH with you shall be unto you as one born among you, and thou shalt LOVE him as thyself; for ye were STRANGERS in the land of Egypt: I am the Lord your God” Leviticus 19:34.

The Father’s Heart – LOVE AT ITS BEST: To LOVE The LORD GOD Almighty!

“Be ye therefore FOLLOWERS of God, as dear children; 2 and WALK IN LOVE, as Christ also hath LOVED us, and hath GIVEN himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour” Ephesians 5:1-2.

There’s nothing as gracious and graceful to loving God. It’s the hallmark and bedrock to WORSHIP Him WORTHILY and to SERVE Him ACCEPTABLY without sentiments, prejudice and dissimulation, in the grace in Christ Jesus stead.

Let me just give two hallmarks that will cause you to see the needs to LOVE God the more unreservedly and wholeheartedly, as you do life and live godly in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

Firstly, when you love God, you make yourself available for gracious call and then triggered the enabling grace of God, that makes all things [good or bad], to work out for your good and goodness in the grace, in order to fulfill His plan and purpose that concerns you as His called-out one, as it’s written:

“And we know [with great confidence] that God [who is deeply concerned about us] causes all things to work together [as a plan] for good for those who LOVE God, to those who are CALLED according to His PLAN and PURPOSE” Romans 8:28/Amplified.

“In Him also we have received an inheritance [a destiny—we were claimed by God as His own], having been predestined (chosen, appointed beforehand) according to the PURPOSE of Him who works everything in agreement with the counsel and design of His will, 12 so that we who were the first to hope in Christ [who first put our confidence in Him as our Lord and Savior] would exist to the praise of His glory” Ephesians 1:11-12/Amplified.

Secondly, when you love God, you give Him the permission to unveiled all things about you that no eyes have seen or ears heard neither have entered into any man’s hearts on the matters that concerns you personally – hence you don’t let anyone talk you out of your convictions of God who loves you dearly. And this act of yours to love God, triggers the blessed Holy Spirit to reveal to you, the true you, the full details of God’s intent for you in order to fulfil life meaningfully. So that anyone speaking to you about anything, it’s only being used to confirm what you’ve already known by the Holy Spirit revelation, and anything otherwise you will throw it into the dustbin to avoid pollution on your worth in the grace.

“But as it is written, Eye hath NOT SEEN, NOR EAR HEARD, neither have entered into the HEART of man, the things which God hath PREPARED for them that LOVE him. 10 But God hath REVEALED them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit SEARCHETH all things, yea, the DEEP THINGS of God” 1 Corinthians 2:9-10.

So, you can see that loving God is gracious. He made us and saved us [Revelation 1:5-6], and wants the best for us. It’s important that we resolved within us to love God so that we can enjoy His presence and share in His promises as in the whole counsel of God. There are many hidden inexhaustible rewards involved involving God.

However, one need to grow to mature to the phase and stage and status in the grace wherein you come to a level of living and loving God as if conditioned and conditioning; such that our loving God is not necessarily of His BLESSEDNESS but because of who He’s as the Father God of Love, who is defined by love and desired us to live in love toward Him; more so, such that in our worship and service towards Him, is bounded by love, to enable Him express Himself through us in His love by the Holy Spirit of love, that He had given us to do life and live godly in the grace in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“He that LOVETH not knoweth not God; for God is LOVE . . . 16 And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is LOVE; and he that dwelleth in LOVE dwelleth in God, and God in him” 1 John 4:8, 16.

“And hope maketh not ashamed; because the LOVE of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us . . . 8 But God commendeth his LOVE toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us” Romans 5:5, 8.

God loves us, let’s walk in His love in Christ Jesus in order to fulfil His plan and purpose concerning us by the revelation of His will to us personally without any intermediary of all about us individually and collectively as His Church in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

Blessed regards as you go living and loving God all the way.

“And you shall LOVE the Lord your God with all your heart, and with ALL your soul, and with ALL your mind, and with ALL your strength: this is the first commandment” Mark 12:30.

“Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt LOVE the Lord thy God with ALL thy heart, and with ALL thy soul, and with ALL thy mind” Matthew 22:37.

“And it shall come to pass, if ye shall hearken diligently unto my commandments which I command you this day, to LOVE the Lord your God, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul . . . 22 For if ye shall diligently keep all these commandments which I COMMAND you, to DO them, to LOVE the Lord your God, to WALK in all his ways, and to CLEAVE unto him” Deuteronomy 11:13, 22.

“Thou shalt NOT hearken unto the words of that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams: for the Lord your God proveth you, to know whether ye LOVE the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul” Deuteronomy 13:3.

The Father’s Heart – LOVE AT ITS BEST: When You Feed The Hungry, Cloth The Naked And Visit The Sick!

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“What doth it profit, my brethren, though a man say he hath FAITH, and have not WORKS? CAN FAITH SAVE HIM? 15 If a brother or sister be NAKED, and DESTITUTE of DAILY food, 16 and one of you say unto them, Depart in peace, be ye warmed and filled; notwithstanding ye give them not those things which are NEEDFUL to the body; WHAT DOTH IT PROFIT? 17 Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone” James 2:14-17.

“When the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the holy angels with Him, then He will sit on the throne of His glory.  32 All the nations will be gathered before Him, and He will separate them one from another, as a shepherd divides his sheep from the goats.  33 And He will set the sheep on His right hand, but the goats on the left.  34 Then the King will say to those on His right hand, ‘Come, you blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:  35 for I was HUNGRY and you gave Me FOOD; I was THIRSTY and you gave Me DRINK; I was a STRANGER and you TOOK Me in;  36 I was NAKED and you CLOTHED Me; I was SICK and you VISITED Me; I was in PRISON and you CAME to Me.’ 37 “Then the righteous will answer Him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see You HUNGRY and FEED You, or THIRSTY and give You DRINK?  38 When did we see You a STRANGER and take You in, or NAKED and CLOTHE You?  39 Or when did we see You SICK, or in PRISON, and COME to You?’  40 And the King will answer and say to them, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me.’ 41 “Then He will also say to those on the left hand, ‘Depart from Me, you cursed, into the everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels:  42 for I was hungry and you gave Me no food; I was thirsty and you gave Me no drink;  43 I was a stranger and you did not take Me in, NAKED and you did not CLOTHE Me, SICK and in PRISON and you did not VISIT Me.’ 44 “Then they also will answer Him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry or thirsty or a STRANGER OR NAKED OR SICK OR IN PRISON, AND DID NOT MINISTER TO YOU?’  45 Then He will answer them, saying, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to Me.’  46 And these will go away into everlasting punishment, but the righteous into eternal life” Matthew 25:31-46.

“If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man’s religion is vain. 27 Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To VISIT THE FATHERLESS AND WIDOWS IN THEIR AFFLICTION, and to keep himself unspotted from the world” James 1:26-27.

The Father’s Heart – LOVE AT ITS BEST: When You Do BELIEVE And RECEIVE The SAVING GRACE of God In Christ Jesus!

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“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.  17 For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. 18 “He who BELIEVES in Him is not CONDEMNED; but he who does not BELIEVE is CONDEMNED already, because he has not BELIEVED in the name of the only begotten Son of God” John 3:16-18.

“But as many as RECEIVED Him, to them He GAVE the POWER (RIGHT) to BECOME children of God, to those who BELIEVE in His name:  13 who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God” John 1:12-13 (Emphasis Mine).

“And this is the RECORD, that God hath given to us ETERNAL LIFE, and this LIFE is in his Son. 12 He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life” 1 John 5:11-12.

“Therefore, if ANYONE is in Christ, he is a NEW CREATION; old things have passed away; behold, all things have BECOME new” 2 Corinthians 5:17 NKJV.

“BEING BORN AGAIN, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by THE WORD of God, which LIVETH and ABIDETH for ever” 1 Peter 1:23.

“. . . 3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, EXCEPT A MAN BE BORN AGAIN, he cannot see the kingdom of God. 4 Nicodemus saith unto him, HOW CAN A MAN BE BORN WHEN HE IS OLD? can he enter the second time into his mother’s womb, and be born? 5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be BORN of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. 6 That which is BORN of the flesh is flesh; and that which is BORN of the Spirit is spirit. 7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, YE MUST BE BORN AGAIN” John 3:1-7.

“But ye are come unto MOUNT SION, and unto the CITY OF THE LIVING GOD, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels, 23 to the GENERAL ASSEMBLY AND CHURCH of the firstborn, which are written in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect, 24 and to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of Abel” Hebrews 12:22-24.

The Father’s Heart – LOVE AT ITS BEST: When You Do LOVE Your NEIGHBOUR And The STRANGER!

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“And, behold, a certain lawyer stood up, and tempted him, saying, Master, what shall I do to INHERIT eternal life?  26 He said unto him, What is written in the law? how READEST thou?  27 And he answering said, Thou shalt LOVE the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy NEIGHBOUR as thyself.  28 And he said unto him, Thou hast answered right: this do, and thou shalt live. 29 But he, willing to justify himself, said unto Jesus, AND WHO IS MY NEIGHBOUR?  30 And Jesus answering said, A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among thieves, which stripped him of his raiment, and wounded him, and departed, leaving him half dead.  31 And by chance there came down a certain priest that way: and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side.  32 And likewise a Levite, when he was at the place, came and looked on him, and passed by on the other side.  33 But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was: and when he saw him, he had compassion on him,  34 and went to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine, and set him on his own beast, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him.  35 And on the morrow when he departed, he took out two pence, and gave them to the host, and said unto him, Take care of him; and whatsoever thou spendest more, when I come again, I will repay thee.  36 Which now of these three, thinkest thou, was NEIGHBOUR unto him that fell among the thieves?  37 And he said, He that shewed mercy on him. Then said Jesus unto him, GO, and DO thou likewise” Luke 10:25-37.

“And one of the scribes came, and having heard them reasoning together, and perceiving that he had answered them well, asked him, Which is the first commandment of all? 29 And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord: 30 and thou shalt LOVE the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the FIRST commandment. 31 And the SECOND is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy NEIGHBOUR as thyself. THERE IS NONE OTHER COMMANDMENT GREATER THAN THESE” Mark 12:28-31.

“But the STRANGER that DWELLETH with you shall be unto you as one born among you, and thou shalt LOVE him as thyself; for ye were STRANGERS in the land of Egypt: I am the Lord your God” Leviticus 19:34.

The Father’s Heart – LOVE AT ITS BEST: When You Do LOVE And PRAY For Your ENEMY And All Those That DESPISES And REVILE You!

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall LOVE your neighbor and HATE your enemy.’  44 But I say to you, LOVE YOUR ENEMIES, BLESS those who CURSE you, DO GOOD to those who HATE you, and PRAY for those who SPITEFULLY use you and PERSECUTE you,  45 that you may be sons of your Father in heaven; for He makes His sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust.  46 For if you love those who LOVE you, what reward have you? Do not even the TAX COLLECTORS do the same?  47 And if you GREET your brethren only, what do you do more than others? Do not even the TAX COLLECTORS do so?  48 Therefore you shall be PERFECT, just as your Father in heaven is perfect” Matthew 5:43-48

“Dearly beloved, AVENGE NOT yourselves, but rather give PLACE UNTO WRATH: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord. 20 Therefore if thine ENEMY hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head. 21 Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good” Romans 12:19-21.

“If thine ENEMY be hungry, give him bread to eat; and if he be thirsty, give him water to drink: 22 for thou shalt heap coals of fire upon his head, and the Lord shall reward thee” Proverbs 25:21-22.

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

“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.

“So then FAITH cometh by HEARING, and HEARING by the WORD of God” Romans 10:17.

“For this is the LOVE of God, that we KEEP his commandments: and his commandments are not GRIEVOUS [BURDENSOME, IRKSOME, TASKMASTER]. 4 For whatsoever is born of God OVERCOMETH the world: and this is the VICTORY that OVERCOMETH the world, even our FAITH. 5 Who is he that OVERCOMETH the world, but he that BELIEVETH that Jesus is the Son of God?” 1 John 5:3-5.
