IF YOU LOVE GOD, SHOW IT

18 Sep

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son.’’ John 3:16 (KJV)

When God was to show us how much He loved us, He gave His only Son to die for our sins. Child of God, there is no way you can demonstrate love without giving something. Thank God for this great love; otherwise, where would you be today? In the same way, God wants you to spread His love to the world. If you truly love Jesus, then show it. Show it in your service to Him. Show it in evangelism. Show it in your relationship with your fellow Church members.

Many times, we pay lip service to loving God! We claim to love God but do not show His love to those around us. You cannot say you love God if you do not show His love to your world. Think of it: when last did you go through your wardrobe to look for good clothes to bless someone with? When last did you enter a supermarket or a grocery shop to get items for someone who needs them but cannot afford it? During festive periods, do you ever think of how to ensure another family has a meal on their table? Are you just consumed with yourself, me, mine and I?

You see, your love for God is also evident in your worship. When we talk about worship, it is not just about singing slowly. The quality of your worship in songs, offerings, and tithes demonstrates how much you love God. You cannot claim to love God, and you keep your money away from Him. No, your love for God must be total. It should show in your offerings and other forms of giving.

Please take a moment and think about this question today. How much do you love God, and are you demonstrating this love? How much are you willing to sacrifice to show you love Him? If there are areas that indict you, make amends today and love Him totally and completely. Be that individual that God can depend on.
