LET LOVE LEAD
(Meditate On The Love Of God)

TO THE BIBLE - Matthew 5:43-44
"You have heard that it was said, 'You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.' But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you."

LET'S TALK 
Across the world, disagreements between people, groups and nations often grow into hostility. History shows how quickly difference can turn individuals into enemies. Many societies even justify loving those who support you and rejecting those who oppose you. Yet the Lord Jesus profoundly challenges this thinking.

The society tells you to love your friends and hate your enemies. On the contrary, the Lord Jesus is teaching you in the portion of the scripture you've just read to love both your friends and enemies. It's important to note that He was addressing men who weren't born again; people who still thought of their enemies as flesh and blood. Sadly, some young people still think this way, and sometimes pray against their classmates or peers, saying, "Oh Lord! Fight against my enemies, destroy them..."

You can't be God-conscious until you're conscious of God's love. This is why you must always take out time to meditate on the love of God. Think about His grace, kindness and how He chose you to be His child, despite your imperfections.

Always remember that if you were the only one on earth, the Lord Jesus would still have given His life for you. Just as the man in Matthew 13:44 sold everything he had to buy a field because of the treasure in it, you're the treasure Jesus saw that He willingly gave His life for. When you let the life of God dominate you as you meditate on His Word, you'll cease to be enemy-conscious.

GO DEEPER
Romans 12:19-21 Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but [rather] give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance [is] mine; I will repay, saith the Lord. [20] Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals on his head. [21] Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.

SPEAK
Dear heavenly Father, I have set my eyes on you and your Word alone. As I meditate on your goodness and your love, my heart is completely overwhelmed by your love for me. By your Spirit, I demonstrate this love to others every day, in Jesus' Name. Amen.

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...

 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...
