For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, that he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man; That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that being rooted and grounded in love, May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breath, and length, and depth. amd heigth; And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fullness of God [Ephesians 3:14-19].
The scripture above is a beautiful prayer by the apostle Paul for the Body of Christ. In it, he lets us know that with the knowledge of the love of Christ, we will be filled with all the fullness of God. When the love of Christ is working in you, you'll love every single person that comes across your path no matter how seemingly worthless, insignificant or unloveable he may be.
When the Bible says in John 3:16, "For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son..." it wasn't referring to the world of buildings, cars, machines, vegetation, aceans and mountains, but the world of people. That means He loves every single person in the world. We also ought to love everyone without discrimination, for the love of Christ doesn't exclude anyone.
You have the capacity to love like God. The Bible says, "But God who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, [by grace ye are saves;]" [Epesians 2:4-5]. God loved us while we were yet sinners.
Therefore, let your love for the people for whom Christ died be untense, and let it also motivate you to soul winning.
Today, let your heart beat with love for those around you who are yet to know the Lord. Let Christ's love in you compel you to preach the gospel to them and turn them from darkess to light and from the power of satan unto God.
CONFESSION
I am a child of God, created in His very image of love. I have the ability to love like my heavenly Father who gave up Jesus to die for my sake. The love of Christ have taken a hold of me and I'm manisfesting this love, thereby reaching out to my world with love. Hallelujah.
