FEED ON HIS LOVE
This is the day the Lord has made and we will rejoice and be glad in it. Oh what a joy it is to come your way once again, thank God for His goodness and mercies towards us. Indeed we serve a faithful God, who remains faithful even when we are not (2Timothy 2:13).
I believe with all my heart that we have entered into a season of great harvest, having put the enemy on the run during our fast in October. God’s children have arisen with a full understanding of the rights and privileges they have in Christ and so we will not tolerate whatever the enemy throws at us. Child of God, you will surely testify, every request you lifted before God, He has heard and it is already done, therefore go forth and possess your possessions.
This morning, I just want to encourage you to feed on the love of God. When you know that the Father loves you, you won’t fret, you will just rest knowing that everything that concerns you has been taken care of. When you know how much He loves you, you’ll just spend the month in thanksgiving and appreciation to this God.
“Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us, and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins.” – 1John 4:10 (KJV)
This scripture makes it clear that it is God who first loved us, ever before we even declared our love for Him. He not only loved us, He sent His only Son as a proof of this love, so what else won’t He willingly do for us? (Romans 8:32). Beloved, don’t entertain the lies of the devil that will try to counter all that you have received, shut Him up, and remind yourself of the incredible love that God has for you. He knows you perfectly and He loves you deeply.
Child of God, every morning when you wake up declare to yourself “Thank You Father for loving me, I receive your love today”. Get scriptures, articles that teach you about the love of God and feed on them. Listen to messages, music that also teach you about the love of God.
Throughout this month and beyond, feed on His love. In this lies the power to destroy all the arsenals of the devil.
I declare unto you that grace and peace will be multiplied unto you even as you grow in the knowledge of God. Your eyes of understanding shall be enlightened and you will not see shame. I will hear your testimony. I bless you today in Jesus’ name, Amen.
Maranatha!
