A never failing remedyWhat is Love?This is the bible definition of love. This is how love is in God's sight. Human love is emotional love whereas God's love is supernatural love. “Love endures long and is patient and kind; Love never is envious nor boils over with jealousy; is not boastful or vain glorious, does not display itself haughtily. Love is a person.“He who does not love has not become acquainted with God – does not and never did know Him; FOR GOD IS LOVE." God is love. He does not only have love as described in 1 Corinthians 13: 4-8, but He is love Himself. Therefore we can replace God with love, for they are one. “God endures long and is patient and kind; God never is envious nor boils over with jealousy; is not boastful or vain glorious, does not display itself haughtily. The love of God is poured out in our hearts“But the comforter (counselor, helper, intercessor, advocate, strengthener, stand by), the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name (in my place, to represent me and act on my behalf), He will teach you all things. And He will cause you to recall – will remind you of, bring to your remembrance – everything I have told you.” John 14:26 Jesus said that the Holy Spirit will teach us all things. It is evident that one of the first things that He will teach us is to love. That is to love God, love ourselves and love others as God does. When we are born again, our old life has passed away and the Holy Spirit pours the love of God in our hearts giving birth to a new life in the fullness of God. “… For God's love has been poured out in our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us.” Romans 5:5 You have the capacity to love like God does; His love is in your heart. Remember also that “In this (union and communion with Him) love is brought to completion and attains perfection with us, that we may have confidence for the day of judgment – with assurance and boldness to face Him – because as He is so are we in this world.” 1 John 4:17 So now we may boldly begin to declare“I endure long and am patient and kind; I never am envious nor boils over with jealousy; am not boastful or vain glorious, do not display itself haughtily. Confess these truths everyday and you will never be the same again.The Holy Spirit will enable you to love beyond your natural ability and love as God loves. |
