BIBLE IN A YEAR: Luk 14-17
BENEFITS OF HIS LOVE
MEMORIZE: "He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things" (Romans 8:32)
READ: 1 John 3:1-2
One outstanding benefit of God’s incomparable love is that it translates sinners to saints, strangers into sons. It is only in Christianity that adherents can claim to be children of God. Some religionists would claim being creatures and slaves of God. Thank God I am a child of God. I may be unknown to the president, governor or any other influential person, it does not matter. What matters is that I am a child of God. This is why you must not toy with your right to divine sonship.
“What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us? (Romans 8:31). Another benefit of God’s incomparable love is that it makes the beneficiary invincible. Romans 8:37 says we are more than conquerors not because we can give, pray, fast, etc. but because of His love. Is any witch or wizard waiting to destroy you? The assurance of Christ’s love shows that such a fellow is simply wasting his or her time. Every gathering of eaters of flesh and drinkers of blood against you shall be scattered in Jesus’ Name.
Another benefit of God’s love is that it guarantees the meeting of all our needs. Romans 8:32 says, if God could give us His best gift - His only begotten Son, what else can He not give to us? This scripture is very reassuring. It means that there is no limit to what God can give you because of His love for you. Love is the basis on which all blessings are delivered from the Heavenly Store House. The Lord will grant you all your good desires this year.
Romans 8:28 says if you can reciprocate God’s love, you will derive another benefit: everything will work in your favor. That means whatever situation you find yourself will produce a testimony. Whatever happens to you will not be determined by the desires, whims and caprices of those behind them, but by love. Love is a very powerful force. When you have love, you will always win. Several battles that cannot be won by return of fire for fire, can be settled by love.
Do you love God in return for all He has done for you? If you do, it will show in your attitude to His Word. To what extent do you obey Him? If you love Him you will obey all He has commanded you to the letter.
ACTIONPOINT
Prayerfully fish out two people who are opposed to you, and show them the love of Christ
via visits, gifts, assistance, care, praying for them, etc.
