COMPELLED BY THE  
LOVE OF CHRIST 
(Let The Love Of Christ Motivate You To Preach The Gospel)

LET’S TALK
A fire doesn’t need encouragement to burn; once ignited, it spreads naturally, consuming everything within reach. The Christian life is not sustained by obligation or religious routine, but by an inner flame—the love of Christ burning in the heart. When that love is truly kindled within you, it produces movement, urgency, and purpose. 

You don’t merely exist; you live with divine intention.The ensuing 15th verse of 2 Corinthians 5 in the NIV is  
equally very inspiring. It says, “And he died for all, that those who live should no longer live for themselves but for him who died for them and was raised again.” This scripture unveils the call to a purposeful life—one compelled by Christ’s love and invested in soul-winning. When the love of Christ takes hold of your heart, it dismantles fear and fuels passion. It becomes the driving force behind your boldness to preach the Gospel.

Always remember this powerful truth: the Lord Jesus died for all. That means every person you encounter—no matter their background, condition, or location—is as valuable to God as Jesus is. This revelation is the bedrock of effective witnessing. The Scripture further declares, “…it was necessary for the Christ to suffer and to rise from the dead the third day, and that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in His name to all nation… And you are witnesses of these things” (Luke 24:46–48 NKJV). How then  could you remain silent? In your sphere of contact—whether in a bus, train, cab, a hospital, school, or maybe even a workplace you volunteer—preach the Gospel.

The glorious Gospel of the blessed Lord has been committed to your trust (1Timothy 1:11). It is real, it is true, and  it is the power of God unto salvation. When you’re motivated by  His love, excuses dissolve. You won’t need to be pushed; you’ll be propelled. Let that love compel you today to speak to someone,  pray for someone, and lead someone into the Kingdom.

GO DEEPER
2 Corinthians 5:14-15 For the love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge, that if one died for all, then were all dead: [15] And that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again.

John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

PRAY
I'm compelled by the love of Christ, and I see people through His eyes and reach out with His compassion; I'm bold, loving, and an effective soul winner. I'm sensitive to the leading of the Spirit to minister the Gospel to the weary, and bring healing and health to the sick because I'm marvellously helped of God, Amen.

RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL

MONDAY, 14TH JULY 2025 THE VIRGIN BIRTH CONFIRMS HIS DEITY   Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us  (Matthew 1:23). PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME    When we say Jesus Christ is deity, we’re affirmingthat He is God. This claim is significant, especially when you consider that many around the world view Jesus merely as a prophet or a great teacher. While it may seem respectful for some to call Him a great prophet or a remarkable teacher, these assertions fall far short of His true identity.    That’s the reason it’s important to understand who He really is by first examining the miracle of His birth. TheBible describes His birth as extraordinary, something that had never occurred in all of history. Matthew 1:18 says, “Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with c...

RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL

 THURSDAY, JULY 31TH 2025 OUR UNIQUE ASSIGNMENTS IN THE MILLENNIUM Behold, a king shall reign in righteousness, and princes shall rule in judgment. And a man shall be as an hiding place from the wind, and a covert from the tempest; as rivers of water in a dry place, as the shadow of a great rock in a weary land (Isaiah 32:1-2). PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME  Our theme scripture is prophetic about the Millennium. The latter part alludes to the unique role we (the Church) would be playing in the millennial reign, when Israel takes center stage. The millennial reign of Christ is not for the Church. It’s for Israel. So, what are we, the Church, going to be doing then? We're going to be carrying out angelic assignments. Our role at the millennial reign of Christ is very different from what a lot of people think; it’s going to be much like what the angels do today in ministering for us. In that day, the Jews will walk in the Millennial blessings that characterize the life of the saints wh...
