GOD IS LOVE.

Sunday 17th April 2022 -First service 

Revelation 13:8 All who dwell on the earth will worship him, whose names have not been written in the Book of Life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.

God is all-knowing that He planned for the fall of man before it occurred. It (the fall) did not take Him by surprise. 

Before any problem comes, there is already an answer which you may not see now or even know where it will come from. 

God will always provide the solution before the challenge. Jesus was slain in eternity but it was revealed in time 2000 years ago.  

2 Corinthians 1:20 (AMP) For as many as are the promises of God, they all find their Yes [answer] in Him [Christ]. For this reason we also utter the Amen (so be it) to God through Him [in His Person and by His agency] to the glory of God.

Jesus Christ is enough, He paid the highest price at the cross. That's why whatever makes a mockery of the cross of Jesus must die.

Hebrews 10:28-29 Anyone who has rejected Moses' law dies without mercy on [the testimony of] two or three witnesses. Of how much worse punishment, do you suppose, will he be thought worthy who has trampled the Son of God underfoot, counted the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified a common thing, and insulted the Spirit of grace?

Calvary was not a show of power, but LOVE, and everything that receives the love of God must win because love never fails.

God proved to us that the most powerful voice is LOVE. It's the best way to keep satan away and disarm him because he doesn't understand it (the language of love).

John 3:16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Himself should not perish but have everlasting life.

God does not use power to show off, He uses love because He is love. That's why you become filled with His fullness when you are rooted in His love. 

Love is the language of the Christians, and the reason we celebrate Easter. It is the first thing you smell when you encounter Jesus, not power. 

There is too much power in the world but zero love. What do people feel when they meet you?

Galatians 5:13 For you, brethren, have been called to liberty; only do not [use] liberty as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another.

Love is the law of life. That's why the Bible summarises the ten commandments into love (Matthew 22:37-39).

John 8:1-11(NLT) .... Then Jesus stood up again and said to the woman, "Where are your accusers? Didn't even one of them condemn you?" "No, Lord," she said. And Jesus said, "Neither do I. Go and sin no more."

The woman thought it was her last day according to the laws but the love of God set her free. 

As we celebrate this Easter, may the Holy Spirit flood our hearts with love for both God and fellow men.

James 5:16

There is no man under the sun who doesn't need another to live. Ask the Holy Spirit to love through you.
