DAY 35 DIVINE ENCOUNTER | FROM THE RISING SUN | GROWING IN LOVE
WELCOME TO DAY 35 OF DIVINE HUNGER — 40 DAYS OF DEVOTION, PRAYER, FASTING & MEDITATION.
GROWING IN LOVE
Scripture:
Romans 5:5 – “NOW HOPE DOES NOT DISAPPOINT, BECAUSE THE LOVE OF GOD HAS BEEN POURED OUT IN OUR HEARTS BY THE HOLY SPIRIT WHO WAS GIVEN TO US.”
Additional Scriptures:
1 Corinthians 13:1–3, 13
1 John 3:10–11, 16–18
John 14:12
DEVOTIONAL REFLECTION
When we became born again, a measure of Christ’s love was poured into our lives by the Holy Spirit. This divine love is not static—it is alive, and it is meant to grow, mature, and expand within us. God’s intention is not that we merely possess love, but that we become a living expression of His love in the earth.
The love of God in us must grow until we begin to know the width, length, depth, and height of His love. This is not a one-time experience—it is a lifelong journey of transformation. It will take our entire earthly life to grow into the fullness of this love, but growth is possible when we remain in constant communion with God.
This growth happens through:
Daily intimacy with God enables us to dwell in Him and He in us. As His conscious presence is activated in our lives, something powerful happens—we stop trying to love and begin becoming love. We move from effort to embodiment. We move from discipline to nature. We move from religion to transformation.
God is love.
Not just loving—He is love.
And we must be honest with ourselves: we do not yet love people the way the Father commands or the way Jesus demonstrated. But prayerfully, we are growing. We are being transformed. We are becoming.
The day our hearts and lives vibrate at the same frequency as God’s love is the day we will truly walk in power, authority, and spiritual effectiveness. That is the day we will begin to operate in the works of Jesus and the greater works (John 14:12).
Without love:
If our hearts and lives are not vibrating with the frequency of God’s love, then everything we do—even in ministry—has no eternal value.
Love is the currency of heaven.
Love is the language of the Kingdom.
Love is the evidence of sonship.
Love is the proof of transformation.
Love is the measure of spiritual maturity.
The greatest gift you can ever give another human being is love—not money, not words, not influence, not titles, not platforms, not anointing, not knowledge, not prophecy, not ministry, not success.
Love.
