LOVE IS HOLINESS

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

DATE: February 13, 2022

TOPIC: LOVE IS HOLINESS   

TEXT: MATHEW 22:37-40

Key verse: John 13:35 By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.

The believers who are sanctified, who have the light of Christ gloriously shining in them, who have finished the work of the cross and have the  mark of Jesus Christ upon them, are the people who also manifest love as evidence, their allegiance and fellowship with CHRIST. 

Love is their language by manifestation. All the law refers to all the writings of Moses, then adding the poetic and prophetic writings of proverbs and psalms, and also the writings from Joshua all the way up to Malachi are considered as the writings of love. 

So JESUS refers to all the law. All that Moses and the prophets wrote about is Love. So then, holiness is to live in love; which is love towards God and love towards one's neighbour.

Matthew 22:37-40

37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.

38 This is the first and great commandment.

39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.

How should your love toward God be? The Bible tells us that it should be with all your heart. If your heart is worth one hundred thousand dollars, it means that you should give the whole of it to GOD. Anything short of that is not holiness because the Bible says with all your heart and with all your strength. 

Then with your entire mind; which deals with your thoughts, your pleasures, delight and joy. Your whole heart should praise the LORD. Angels give the whole of their beings to the praise of God.Again you must love with all your might and with all your ability. 

Anything you can do is for God. You are to offer your strength willingly and work without considering time or tiredness, because the name of the LORD is involved in what you are doing. Then the Bible says also that you should love your neighbour to the point you love yourself. 

The good you wish for yourself, wish the same for your neighbour and the evil you do not wish for yourself, do not wish it for your neighbour. That is how the life of a true believer should be in complete holiness. 

Thought for the day: Holiness is to live in love

Song for the day: I love Him…

Bible reading for the day: Leviticus 15-17; 
Matthew 27:1-31.  #Horemow

For taking your time to study remain blessed. UNDERSTANDING ETERNITY WEDNESDAY MAY 10 TEXT: Psalm 90: 1 - 2 Key Verse: “The Lord is King forever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land Psalm 10:16 People that understand eternity are always careful. Eternity means forever and ever, it means ever-lasting, ever-living, never dying. Trillion upon trillion years, eternity is still on, in fact it is life without end. There are two extreme ends of eternity: The kingdom of God called third heaven where God the Father, God the son, God the Holy Ghost, twenty-four elders, saints of God that make heaven, holy angels of God, and entire host of heaven dwell now presently; Hell-fire, where Satan, demons, and sinners that have died in their sins are presently kept. God is the One that introduced eternity. He lives forever. It is not a choice, the One who created us is forever, hence you will live forever, but what matters is where you will live eternally. Remove God from the way, then t...

Pastor Paul Rika’s Burden, Vision and Action To Reach the Unreached (2)

God's blessings will continually accompany you for dedicating time to your studies. Pastor Paul Rika’s Burden, Vision and Action To Reach the Unreached (2) Wednesday 15th October TEXT: Titus 3: 3-6   Key verse: Titus 3: 6 “Which He shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior.” I remember I was in Sao Tome and Principe as a deeper life national overseer and I was writing the book, “Divine Revelation of God’s Holiness and Judgment.” The vision the Lord gave to Michael Sambo. I was translating it into a book, with the scriptural backups to make it a sound evangelistic book. I saw that truly the world is doomed. What will I say about those who have not known Jesus among the 7 billion people on earth; those who do not even have anything to do with Him? Do I speak of the billions in Asia without understanding of Jesus? Out of the 1.4 billion in India, they are struggling to record 150 million Christians including Catholics.  Who knows Jesus then? Even among Pentecosta...
