LIVING IN LOVE AMONG BRETHREN

FOR  TAKING YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD REMAIN BLESSED

DATE: THURSDAY 22 JULY

TOPIC: LIVING IN LOVE AMONG BRETHREN

TEXT: 1 John 4:7-8

Key verse:  1 John 4:11 Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love 
one another. 
  
What makes Heaven beautiful is not the properties in Heaven. It is not the buildings or mansions of Heaven. It is the love of God that is spread abroad in Heaven; it is the love of God that sinks into the very cells of the occupants of Heaven. They feel very happy, they are excited, they are happy. 

What makes a little child rejoice and start laughing as the mother throws him up when she plays with him? It is not the food in the feeding bottle, but the excitement of the love of the mother. As the mother plays with the child, the child is excited and he keeps laughing. There is joy in his heart because he is loved. 

What makes people very happy in the church is love. When they come to the church and they see smiles on the faces of the people towards them; they see love; they see good relationships from brethren, friends and those that love them. 

These make them want to go to church. They go to church because they will find lovers there. Everything is fine and the word they are going to hear is the word of love. Even if it is a hard word they still see love in it, so they are happy. 

What makes the family a happy place is a love. When there is love in the family, the people feel happy and they always want to go home to see their brother, or sister, or family members. It is the love shown by one to another. What makes us happy before God is His love. 

God loves because God is love. He is a bundle of love. The song says: I know He loves me better; whatsoever maybe, I will follow Him. Each one of the billions of people on earth can sing this song well because they see God loving them. 

Even the animals, the birds and the beasts of the field that don't have sense still feel happy. You see birds jumping from one branch of the tree to another because there is the excitement of love from their Creator. Key into this love and share it abroad too.

Thought for the day:  Love is the greatest commandment.

Song for the day:  Bind us together Lord, bind us together in love that cannot….

Bible reading for the day:  Psalm 36-37; 
Acts 23:1-11. #Horemow

HOLINESS REVIVAL MOVEMENT WORLDWIDE Daily Devotional EVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING  _BY_ *PASTOR PAUL RIKA*  Int'l Director        (Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide) THURSDAY NOVEMBER 1 , 2018  _TOPIC:_    *YOU WILL SUCCEED AS CHRIST DID BY PRAYER*           TEXT: John 16: 23-24. KEY VERSE: It came to pass, as He was praying in a certain place, when He ceased, one of His disciples said, Lord, teach us how to pray as John taught his disciples. Luke 11: 1. When Jesus Christ came to us in the flesh, He went into the business of prayer because He was promoting the attribute of God as a prayer-answering God. He would not render that attribute idle or redundant. Nobody knew how John did it, but Jesus reveals here that the success you saw in the ministry of John the Baptist, the victory you saw in his ministry, is because he was a prayer man. John so much valued prayer. He saw the essentials of pr...
