M.A.G.A 0.2
Thank you for continuing this series with me. Since it is a series, I will always continue from where I stopped the previous week. In case you missed last week, click M.A.G.A 0.1 to read.
My Act God's Act! Have you heard people say or you said to someone before ; God will surely help you/send help to you? With that statement, you just said to that individual looking for help that he/She should not think of getting it from you. "Look somewhere else" is what you left unsaid. Have you had your heart skipped before because someone asked for your help? Meanwhile, it was an advice the person needed and not really cash. What if you have silenced the person in the disguise of "I don't have money" to give you? Follow me closely;
1 Corinthians 3:21-23
[21]Therefore let no man glory in men. For all things are yours;
[22]Whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come; all are yours;
[23]And ye are Christ's; and Christ is God's.
All things are yours. This speaks of the possessions of the Church and of the individual believer. Which includes : the christian teachers with different gifts; the world, life, and things present; death and things to come. In Christ, death becomes a possession, life eternal becomes our own! And Ye are Christ 's. A summary of what we have received in Christ, this is the ground and foundation of all things we have. It shows our root, the process we came forth from, our identity. YE ARE CHRIST 'S!
We are His, not just by creation alone but by the father's special gift. We are His, through the purchase of His own blood, a willing surrendering of Himself to the cross! We are His by our profession of Him. This gives us access to God and He dwells in our heart by faith and all we have are His. #Good stuffs
Permit me to loud and personalize it, my worst things are His, my sins are accounted to Him and laid on Him, He did bear it and they are done away by Him. My griefs, reproaches, sufferings are all His. My best are His! All the spiritual blessings, giftings, all good things that are done, are done in His strength and by the spirit. #Another good stuff.
And Christ is God's; He is His Son, His own, His only begotten and well beloved Son. The saints should not glory in men, though they have done so great and good deed, but in God, and in Christ! Hallelujah, back to today's gist.
The inability of men to exhibit the nature of God made the society what it is today. What is your opinion of someone asking you for a favour? Is not a NO you have in mind before such individual is through explaining his/her plight? There is no love in dealing with ourselves in the society. Instead of trying to fulfil the laws, rules and commandments, Jesus just said LOVE GOD, LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOURS. This statement has solved our problems if adhered to.
The need for love is important in our day to day life. I want to be loved, I'm sure you want to loved too. Love is so great and powerful and sadly, it is scares in our society today. I'm not talking about what you do in order to get something in return or In the future. We have millions of songs on love, yet we see the opposite in our society. Is it that we just say it with our mouth and it never entered our heart? REALITY CHECK ; WHAT IS THAT THING YOU CALLED LOVE?
The early Christians, despite their different nationalities lived and share everything in common. Love for God was their bond!
Acts 4:32-34
[32]And the multitude of them that believed were of one heart and of one soul: neither said any of them that ought of the things which he possessed was his own; but they had all things common.
[33]And with great power gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and great grace was upon them all.
[34]Neither was there any among them that lacked: for as many as were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the prices of the things that were sold,
Commit yourself to a love walk. The one that will live out God's true nature which is "in spite of" I still love you, I will still be there for you, I will help when I'm needed!
I LOVE YOU; it's more than just the words, it's a lifestyle, it's a life you commit yourself to have. Be an instrument of love all the time, encourage, be a shoulder to lean on, inspire those around you, help those that are in need, motivate. Create an environment where love prevails, and we inspire ourselves to do bigger and better things. Show love to those around you!
Why is it easy to do all these? Because you are God's! And ye are Christ's; and Christ is God's! Show love, You are love (Loved)
1 John 4:7-12
[7]Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God.
[8]He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.
[9]In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him.
[10]Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.
[11]Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another.
[12]No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us.
Clear?
This is me signing out for this week, I will see you next week. Till we meet again, keep winning
