Love never disappears…. MOFFATT.
Love shall never pass away…. CONEYBEARE.
(1 Cor. 13:8)
You are born of love because you are born of God. (1 John 4:7.) The love of God has been shed abroad in your heart by the Holy Spirit. (Rom. 5:5.)
God is love. The very essence of God Himself has been poured into you. You cannot do anything in yourself to receive His love, for it is a gift that you receive.
God's love in you makes you victorious over hatred. When you harbor hate in your heart, it acts as a cancer and eats away at you. However, when the love of God is in your heart, you are immunized from the multiple diseases related to hate. Jealousy cannot grow when it comes in contact with the love of God.
God's power is wrapped up in His love. Love, therefore, becomes a limitless power source when you walk in it. When you choose to obey the law of love, you are acting in love.
When God's love is perfected in you, it casts out all fear. (1 John 4:18.) You know that God's love protects you at all times. It is ever on the alert. You need not be concerned that someone will offend you, because forgiveness is natural to you.
There is no fear in your life since nothing can separate you from the love of God. (Rom. 8:39.) God's love keeps on operating regardless of circumstances. Unlike city lighting systems, it cannot be knocked out by a bad storm. God's love prevails in adversity.
You have the capacity to love in all situations because God has put His love inside you. By confessing that you are a love person, you will strengthen the power of God's love in you.
