NO GREATER LOVE (Jesus – God’s Perfect Example of Love) 

📖TO THE BIBLE 
John 15:13
“Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends.”

▶️LET’S TALK
In spite of all the terrifying acts that brought the fear of God into the hearts of the Israelites, they still broke His law and didn’t obey His commandments. So God introduced a new principle — the love principle. The Bible says He demonstrated His love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, He sent Jesus to die for us (Romans 5:8). We weren’t the ones that called out to God to send Jesus to come to die for us and save us from our sins. 
The Lord reached out to us with the message of His love and reconciled us to Himself: “Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation” (2 Corinthians 5:18). In John 3:16, the Bible says, “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.” 

John 15:13 also tells us, “Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends.” This is exactly what God did for us by sending Jesus to die for our sins. As a Christian, you’re greatly loved by God, and His love has been shed abroad in your heart by the Holy Spirit who lives in you (Romans 5:5). That means you’ve become an ambassador of His love; you’re to love those around you with the same kind of love God demonstrated towards you. This kind of love goes beyond the barriers of every wrong; it is unfeigned, unconditional, and unlimited. 

▶️ GO DEEPER
John 3:16; 1 John 4:10-13 

🗣 PRAY 
Dear heavenly Father, thank you for the love you demonstrated by sending Jesus as a propitiation of the sins of the whole world. This same love is shed abroad in my heart by the Holy Spirit. Therefore, your love flows out freely and genuinely through me today, to my world, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL

SATURDAY, DECEMBER 6TH 2025 LET THE GOSPEL BE YOUR PASSION For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth... (Romans 1:16). PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME Dsc. Dsc. DD. The Gospel of Jesus Christ is the power of God to save, heal, deliver and transform lives. That’s why it must be a message you understand, live by, and burn with passion to share with others especially as the coming of the Lord draws nearer than we’ve ever known. Paul the Apostle declared that he was not ashamed of the Gospel. That statement came from a place of deep conviction and unwavering commitment. For him, preaching the Gospel wasn’t optional but life itself. He lived for the Gospel and was willing to die for its advancement. Read His inspiring and heart-stirring words in Acts 20:22-27, “And now, behold, I go bound in the spirit unto Jerusalem, not knowing the things that shall befall me there: Save that the Holy Ghost witnesseth in every city, saying ...

RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL

  SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 16TH 2025 THE KINGDOM, THE FIELD, AND THE SEED Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field (Matthew 13:24). PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME Dsc. Dsc. DD. The Lord Jesus, in His remarkable teachings about the Kingdom, used parables to unveil profound truths. One of such examples is the parable of the wheat and tares in Matthew 13. He said, "...the kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field" (Matthew 13:24). That "man" is the Lord Himself, while the "good seed" represents the children of the Kingdom. The "field," as He later explained, is the world. This is extraordinary. The Lord sowed good seed, not in someone else's field, but in His own field. That tells you the world is His field and part of His Kingdom. It belongs to Him. No matter what we see in the world today, no matter how polluted it appears, the field still b...
