Jesus said, “ask anything in My name and I will give it to you” John 13:14, this signifies love. The God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob who created mankind, is the “God of love.” (1 John 4:16). Scriptures says God is love. The God who loves us so much, His love that is very intense. We must please God, and be doers of the Word, not just hearers. Apostle James said, the word of God is meant to make us doers, and not hearers. (James 1:22-25). It is for our own benefit.
We must meditate on the Word, Doers of the Word and be transformed spiritually, letting the old man in us go, and letting the new man come.
The Word of God is meant to be something we live by-something we pray with, live by the word.
Doers of the Word is loving the Lord Your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind, and love your neighbors as yourself. (Luke 10:27;Matthew 22:37).
Brothers and sisters, because of love, Jesus said, peace be still.
-Because of love, Jesus said, take up your mat and walk.
-Because of love, Jesus told the little girl that was dead, “Little girl arise”
-Because of love, Jesus fed the multitude twice.
-Because of love, Jesus cleansed the lepers.
-Because of love, Jesus restored blind eyes and deaf ears.
-Because of love, Jesus said Lazarus come forth.
-Because of love, Jesus carried the heavy cross, bruised body, and was nailed alive.
A Scholar C. S. Lewis talked about the power of God. “His Omnipotence means power to do all things.”
Apostle Paul loved the Lord so much that he said, “It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me.” This is what love will do to you. Are we able to love one another the way Christ loves us?
Amba says, Jesus is the reason I smile, Jesus is the reason I breathe, Jesus is the reason I and my children are alive, Jesus is the reason we have roof over our head, food to eat, clothes to wear and much more. Hallelujah! How about you?
