LIQUID LOVE













1 John 3:1 See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God

Welcome to the month of June 2015. I pray that you and me would continually grow in the knowledge of God the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ through His word and the greater one that lives in us - the Holy Spirit. I am excited to be in your world again, communicating the same irrefutable message - the gospel. 

Love has always been the deep cry of the human heart and that cry of billions has found its answer in Jesus Christ. Trust has its foundation on love. Trust has value when it is backed up with demonstration. The bible shows us that God so loved the world that He "gave His only begotten Son". Now, that scripture in John 3:16 is utterly amazing , the amplified version puts it this way - God so "highly priced" the world meaning God thought you were so special , so important , so peculiar, he saw you as a package of pearls, a bunch of diamonds , do you understand what I am saying to you!! How I wish you could understand what was in God's mind for you. Psalm 139:16-17 declares , "How precious are your thoughts towards me , Oh God! How vast is the sum of them. If I could count them, they are more than the sand ....." 




















Can you count those grains of sand on the beach? David saw that and compared them to the number of the beautiful thoughts that God has for you as an individual. I want you to take this personal, wake up everyday and look at yourself in the mirror, put on your wildest grin and say ,"God, the creator of the world is so crazily in love with you" He did not buy you a chocolate or a jaguar F-Type(my best car - just had to say), no no no, He gave His Son as a sacrifice to die in your place. 

Apostle Paul lays an astounding argument in Romans 5:7 ; how difficult it is for one to die for a righteous man , however when you were still that wretched you, Christ Jesus died for you. He saw what you could be if you accept this sacrifice and make Jesus your Lord. Maybe you are reading and you think you are too messy , let me show you the shock of your life in 1 John 4:10 In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins. Did you see that, God Himself proposed to you, you thought you are a nobody but look at the Father on one knee saying so passionately - I love you and you wonder how could a righteous , holy God love someone like me; because God is love. 

Romans 8:32 gives me boldness everyday I kneel down to pray , look at it ; Romans 8:32 He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things? This comes as a package , with His Son is an extra bag full of all things that you require for life. This is what I call liquid love, love that has no glitches, loves that surpasses human failure, love more powerful than sin, love that reaches to those in the lowest valley, the unfathomable, enigmatic , incalculable, mysterious love the Father has for you. Men and women who believe in the love of God win in the battles of life,they are unshakable because they know they are God's beloved. There is a place in God of total security, unending peace, complete boldness even in the face of death itself. It is that atmosphere of the revelation of His love. 

The great Apostle John , the man who had comprehended this reality ; they tried to burn him but the man could not die until they had to banish him to Patmos. He is the one that says , "See what great love the Father has lavished upon us , that we should be called the children of God!". Understanding the love of God is the greatest achievement in Christianity and in life. This is what makes you a champion, full of faith, full of compassion, packed with kindness, wherever you are ,love is drooling from you, your eyes are bright with endearment!! YOU ARE LOVED BY GOD. 

Always a joy sharing with you, see you again next time. Keep on reading, keep on letting me know your thoughts and keep on sharing with your world. Much love.
