Prophetic Scripture:
1 Thessalonians 3:12-13, And the Lord make you to increase and abound in love one toward another, and toward all men, even as we do toward you: To the end he may stablish your hearts unblameable in holiness before God, even our Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ with all his saints.
Because we are living in the last days that Jesus spoke about, it is more important than ever that we examine our walk with God regularly. The enemy is using so many different temptations, trials and distractions to throw people off track. Jesus said that one of the ways that would happen is that our love for each other would begin to show signs of growing cold (Mt. 24:12). He said it would wax cold, like a candle that has burned out. The wax then becomes cold, hard and provides no warmth or light. You see the way the world will know that we are genuinely Christians, is not by how many people attend our churches, or by our good music or preaching. They will know we are true followers of Christ because of one simple fact, that we love each other unselfishly. When the world would rather revert to backbiting, gossip, betrayal and finger-pointing, we choose to stay in unity and love! The ability to do that will make them stand up and take notice because it is a truly supernatural act in a world filled with hate. To win the world, we need love toward one another in our churches, families, marriages and ministries. Then it is in that atmosphere of love that the presence of God will abide and you can be certain that wherever God abides, there will be no hindrance to miracles, answered prayer and blessings. Love will release the supernatural, so let your love abound today.
Prayer:
Dear Heavenly Father, I ask that You would help me to walk in love today with all my fellow believers and all people. Forgive me Lord for the areas where I have not chosen to walk in love. Put a watch over my mouth today, that my words will be filled with love and that I will speak well of others. Cause Your love to abound in me today! In the Name of Jesus, Amen.
