Love is a light..

The Love of God is such a beautiful phenomenon! One of life's greatest pleasures is observing the love of God expressed through the one who's  born again. Better still, being the one giving out God's love! Love is a light! Often, we want to know how to live right and how to live holily. The answer to these quests is the Love of God revealed to us and through us! In the revelation of God, is the revelation of his works of love carried out in Christ! From the Cross to the Throne, God had us in mind! Right now, I am thinking that Jesus had me in mind.. Me.. Olawunmi Bog Abraham in his very thoughts as he died! He thought, 'If by believing in me, Bog would receive eternal life and function in freedom...Then, it's worth me dying'! And he died! I matter to God... Once I understand this, others will begin to matter to me! One Scripture that inspires me is 1 John 2:9-10, 'He that saith he is in the light, and hateth his brother, is in darkness even until now. He that loveth his brother abideth in the light, and there is none occasion of stumbling in him'. No occasion for stumbling! Love is a light... In Love, we have fellowship with God.. For love is his modus operandi! The reason many believers act inconsistent with who they really are in Christ is because  they are not acquainted with the reality that God loves them. In the revelation of God's love is the powerlessness of lust! This is the Spirit's dream; that we are suffused with the consciousness of God's love and that our every thought, word and act is inundated with God's love! That's the way we will be fitted functionally with all of God's fullness- Ephesians 3:19! #PerfectLove #Pleroma

Yield yourself as...

Romans 6:13, 'Neither yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God'. The Word, 'yield' is from the Greek, 'paristēmi'. It means to 'present as, to recommend'. Let me give this example to elucidate. If you were called for an interview and you were asked to present your birth certificate. The document that would be presented would be shown because it’s the required document. In the same way, you should ‘Present’ your body as Instruments of righteousness, tools that have been consecrated and made for carrying out the righteous purposes of God. Hitherto, it was the body of sin, now in Christ; it’s the instrument of righteousness. The Word, 'Instrument' is from the Greek word, 'Hoplon'. Hoplon refers to a tool made for a purpose! Our bodies are now tools crafted, made purposely for righteousness! For this cause, we live to our true calling; using our body to carry out God's righteous will! Glory! #Pleroma
