Affirmation Train You Can Change Any Situations With Words
THE LOVE-WAY BY PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME.
Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God (1 John 4:7).
The greatest power in the world is love. The love-way is the right way. Jesus didnβt get offended at those who abused and tortured Him; rather He said, ββ¦Father, forgive them; for they know not what they doβ¦β (Luke 23:34). So, why would a Christian get so offended by someone who said something against him and say, βIn the Name of Jesus Christ, I command their house to burn; I command fire upon their headsβ; thatβs unwise.
Some people go to the extent of studying a book of curses to learn how to curse others, despite what the Bible says, βBless them which persecute you: bless, and curse notβ (Romans 12:14). As a Christian, youβre called to bless. James 3:11-12 asks, βDoth a fountain send forth at the same place sweet water and bitter? Can the fig tree, my brethren, bear olive berries? either a vine, figs? so can no fountain both yield salt water and fresh.β
Never be so offended to the point of pouring invectives on others. Remember, you have a wholesome tongue that speaks healing, life and righteousness; so use it only to bless. Donβt let anger dominate or rule you. Those who are ruled by anger canβt handle spiritual authority; they canβt use the Name of Jesus for the higher things of life. Ephesians 4:26 says, βBe ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath.β
You must tame and dominate anger, as well as impatience, frustration and hatred. You were born to love; refuse to allow anything agitate you to act otherwise. Even those that set themselves up to be your enemies, according to the words of Jesus, are still deserving of love: βBut I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute youβ (Matthew 5:44).
Weβre to love others selflessly and unconditionally as Christ has loved us: βHereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethrenβ (1 John 3:16).
PRAYER
Dear Father, I thank you for your love, which is the hallmark of my life. I love unconditionally, because thatβs my nature in Christ. I live in peace, joy and blessings, free of every unnecessary weight of anger and malice, in Jesusβ Name. Amen.
