A Call to Radiate His Love

God’s love is so wonderful—

So high, I can’t get over it.

So low, I can’t get under it.
So wide, I can’t get around it.
Jesus, You give me wonderful love.

These were the rhythms in my heart as I wrote. Jesus is God's Love personified. It is God's genuine thought for mankind. When He wanted to show His love for us, He gave His only begotten Son, so that He might gain mankind in return. What manner of love is this, that one came to die for the sins of others?

The Holy Spirit sheds His love in our hearts daily and urges us to cultivate it and share it with others. The kind of love God promises sets us apart for His purpose and brings freedom.

He is a patient lover who waits patiently for His people to come to the knowledge of all He has and can do for them. When we acknowledge Him, He pours His love on us and expects us to show this love to mankind.

God’s love and position in our lives cannot be replaced by anyone, It is a selfless kind of love.

As children of God, we are to esteem others and show the same kind of love He has for us. This love is not conditional. We are commanded to love, as God’s Word says, Romans 13:8 “Owe no man anything, except to love.” Love is not optional—it's a command. The weight of God’s love is strengthened when we show it to mankind.

It’s time for us to become faithful in Love Work with God.

What are you doing with the love of God?

 Is your love dependent on what you can get from someone?

God is constantly putting us in situations where we can radiate His love to mankind. Live a life debt-free of love, always spreading God’s love.

Spread God’s love today and watch as your Lover sheds His peace within you daily.

Partnering with the Holy Spirit to Shape Our Reactions

Growing up, I realized that I was very sensitive to sound, especially when I was asleep. Any kind of noise or movement would disturb me. One night, sometime last year, I was sleeping when I suddenly heard my sister's voice. As soon as I heard it, my eyes flew open in anger, and I was about to speak. But in that moment, the Holy Spirit gently whispered to me, “Do not say anything.” I tried so hard to speak, but the prompting continued, urging me to remain silent.

So, I stayed quiet. The next morning, I woke up still feeling frustrated. I wondered, “Why was she so loud? Why didn’t she move more quietly?” But all of these thoughts remained in my heart. I went through my morning routine, took a shower, got dressed for work, and left for the office.

At the office, I kept thinking about how I would talk to her about it when I got home. But then, the Holy Spirit spoke to me again, saying, “Speak nothing about what happened.” I responded, “But Lord…” and He repeated, “Say nothing.” So, I obeyed and said nothing.

After that experience, I began to notice something important. There were times when I would hear loud noises from my neighbors, but the usual irritation and urge to complain had disappeared. I realized that since that moment with my sister, I no longer felt the same frustration or need to react to excessive noise.

The Holy Spirit is our character shaper. He works within us, guiding us to partner with Him so He can mold our character according to His will. It is the Holy Spirit who teaches us how to speak, when to sit, when to stand, and when to run. He helps us grow into the people God wants us to be.

The Holy Spirit is not confined to certain parts of our lives. He is our Helper in every area, every circle, and every situation. He is the author of our daily lives—nothing happens without His notice. So, we should never try to exclude Him from any part of our life.

As children of God, we should continually ask the Lord to work on our character. We need to bring our weaknesses before Him and allow Him to shape us into the people He wants us to be. If we are unable to deal with our weaknesses, they can become footholds for the enemy in our lives. The Holy Spirit is aware of our weaknesses, but He is also our strength in those weaknesses. Let’s seek His help daily, asking Him to sharpen our character and guide us in every moment.

GOD WANTS TO BE OUR FATHER.

 

During a recent worship session, a song came into my spirit: "You are the fourth man in the fire, the one who does no wrong, the one who always comes true for His own." I sang this song, and although I only recall it during worship, its message stayed with me.

This morning, while reflecting on certain challenging events, I realized that God is our only ultimate help. Having relocated far from family and familiar surroundings, I sometimes face numerous challenges. In one of these moments, I thought of where and who would I depend on. The song's message became a reminder that "God is my security". 

 I thought about how God helped the three Hebrew men, and to me, that was a responsible Father who cared for His child caught in the world's fire.

Because they had an understanding of who God is they were able to say this From Daniel 3:16-18

16 Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego answered King Nebuchadnezzar, "Your threat means nothing to us.

17 If you throw us in the fire, the God we serve can rescue us from your roaring furnace and anything else you might cook up, O king.

18 But even if he doesn't, it wouldn't make a bit of difference, O king. We still wouldn't serve your gods or worship the gold statue you set up."

I often feel stuck in challenging situations, and while I know how to navigate some, I sometimes wish for a Father to guide me. As I sang, I thought about God's help and said, "Father, help me. You know best!" 

Reading the story of the Hebrews, I saw God's fatherly nature and loved it more. It felt real to me. God is concerned with our life details and will step into any challenge with us if we acknowledge Him.

HOPE IN A GOD WHO DOES NOT FAIL

Currently, I've been facing a medical issue, and I've found myself seeking God's face consistently. Despite medical advancements, I kept on having fears and doubt. However, as I prayed, God kept revealing a reality different from my current circumstances. This built hope in me and brought me to a realization: God's reality goes beyond our physical circumstances, and He wants to impart His divinity on us.

God's reality is meant to be our reality. This was the main point of redemption. Although we're currently in a physical place that differs from God's reality, we must create an atmosphere worthy of holding His reality. As God's word says, "The Lord is that Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty" (2 Corinthians 3:17). We must worship Him in spirit and truth.

The spirit reality is God's actual plan for us. He said we existed before the world was formed, and when we come into this existence, we can become who He intended us to be. God's ultimate show of love for us can be achieved when we choose to work in His spiritual reality.

In moments when we feel abnormal or uncertain, we can search within our spirit to seek out the kind of reality we once had. We can travel to the secret place to meet with our God, armed with the sword of truth. This is the multidimensional privilege we have, and we can be assured that He rewards those who seek Him out.

Do you want to come to this place? If you can just come consistently, even when you lack the faith to hold out, He will build faith and capacity in you. Today, there is a God who has a reality for us that is far different from what we want, but it produces peace. Come today with that posture. 

You can come.
