SLACK…THE THIEF OF DIVINE INHERITANCES

Posted on by
Reply

Joshua 18:1-3

And the whole congregation of the children of Israel assembled together at Shiloh, and set up the tabernacle of the congregation there. And the land was subdued before them. And there remained among the children of Israel seven tribes, which had not yet received their inheritance. And Joshua said unto the children of Israel, How long are ye slack to go to possess the land, which the LORD God of your fathers hath given you?

Slack is a doorway to lack. Lack is a close companion of sorrow and regret.

Slack defined:

• To be lazy, avoid work, or work with insufficient vigor or concentration.

• To neglect something such as duty, or leave something undone.

God had already given Israel a wonderful inheritance. God not only told them about their inheritance, He also showed it to them. God wanted His people to live in and enjoy the blessing of their inheritance all the days of their lives on this earth but they were slack. They knew it was available and real, they just made little or no effort to go possess it. They probably talked about it all the time like most Christians talk about what the Bible says belongs to them however they did not possess it. Knowing something belongs to you but lacking the diligence to go get it is tragic.

There were 12 tribes of the children of Israel but only 5 of the 12 had actually possessed the land of promise God had given them. Joshua asked them a very vital question that should have initiated self-examination. “How long are you slack to go possess the land?” Today, I would say it like this, “How long are you going to just sit there and be lazy? When are you going to rise up and obtain all that God has for you?”

Ephesians 2: 10

For we are God’s [own] handiwork (His workmanship), recreated in Christ Jesus, [born anew] that we may do those good works which God predestined (planned beforehand) for us [taking paths which He prepared ahead of time], that we should walk in them [living the good life which He prearranged and made ready for us to live].

God has an awesome plan for your life but you must cast off slack and get down to business. Our time here on the earth is short; we must be about our Father’s business. We must be sober and vigilant, refusing to be distracted by Satan’s devices that rob and steal destinies and dreams. We must resist the temptation to be idle, sluggish, bored and indifferent with our inheritance and the work of God. It is time to stand tall and be strong in the Lord, laying aside every weight and the sin that comes to beset and stop divine progress. The word beset means to harass or trouble somebody or something continually. Therefore we must put an immediate stop to slack in our lives. It is time to grow up and stop acting like immature children and mere unchanged men; gossiping and complaining, then free-loading on other people’s faith.

Slack is a work of the flesh. The flesh is an enemy of God.

Your life is precious, vital and strategic to the plan of God and the Body of Christ. We need each other to be all that God has called us to be and do. It was not enough that only 5 tribes of Israel had possessed their inheritance, God wanted them all to go into the promise land. God wants the whole Body of Christ to inherit and walk in all that He has given us. Come on, let us rise up and possess the whole land!

FINISH STRONG

Posted on by

Many things in life can drain you of physical and spiritual strength if you allow them the opportunity. There is an enemy of your soul who seeks your demise; there are no ifs, ands or buts’ about that statement. He will stop at nothing to suffocate your dreams and abort your God given destiny and purpose. However, you must do your part to stay strong in the Lord and in the power of His might by putting on the full armor of God.

Let’s go deeper. Come on let’s uncover and exterminate the enemies’ strategies to make null and void the strength of the Almighty in your life.

Have you ever been in a hot place? I mean a place so hot it was difficult to take a deep breath. Direct heat can be very exhausting on the physical body. It can drain you of strength necessary to complete your daily task. Certain outside temperatures can cause the body to become so hot that it begins to lose vital electrolytes and body fluids causing a person to have blurred vision, mental confusion, physical weakness, lethargy, muscle spasms and more. If no intervention is taken to remove the heat source and reverse its effects the person can end up in a critical life or death situation.

If we compare this same scenario to the spiritual life of a believer we can begin to see some similarities. John 10:10 reminds us that, Satan comes to steal, kill and destroy. Whenever he has opportunity he will turn up the heat in your life with the intent to drain you of spiritual strength, blur your spiritual vision and try to cause question or confusion concerning the direction in which God would have you take. Heat or fire is one of his strategies to try to make you doubt the Word of God and withdraw from the good fight of faith. Heat often can produce a feeling of suffocation or a lack of good air exchange which can cause panic.

Suffocate defined:

• To feel uncomfortable through excessive heat and lack of fresh air, or make somebody feel uncomfortable in this way.

• To confine and restrict somebody or something with adverse effects, or be or feel confined and restricted in development or self-expression.

The enemies purpose in this is to restrict, confine and enslave you so that your spiritual growth and development will be crippled. 

Jesus revealed Satan’s plot concerning Peter’s destiny, “Simon, Simon (Peter), listen! Satan has asked excessively that [all of] you be given up to him [out of the power and keeping of God], that he might sift [all of] you like grain,”Luke 22:31

It is very obvious from this scripture that the enemies desire for man-kind is to cause destruction and mayhem.

However, John 10:10, also reveals to us that Jesus came that we might have life and have it more abundantly. If you are wondering why the word might is present in that verse it is because you have a part to play. God needs your cooperation in order for you to live a victorious abundant life. God’s plan for your life is that you finish your course and finish it strong! Gird up the loins of your mind. Put on the full armor of God. You are a child of God. You are more than a Conqueror. Pick up the slack, tell the devil to pack, get off your property and don’t come back. WE ARE THE BODY OF CHRIST! WE ARE THE CHURCH OF THE LIVING GOD! Lift your head, square your shoulders; focus your sight and purpose in your heart to MARCH ON and FINISH STRONG!

STOP YOU’RE UNDER ARREST

Posted on by
Reply

Have you ever seen one of those old western movies on TV or police series from the 1980’s, whenever they arrested someone, they first commanded the person to stop, then drop their weapon, and then lift their hands up in the air to indicate total surrender. This person had been apprehended and was now taken in for questioning.

 Arrest defined:

• to seize or detain something by legal authority

• to stop or slow something

• to suddenly capture and hold something, especially somebody’s attention

 Did you not know God has the legal right to arrest His people? When we give our lives to Christ, we legally belong to Him, not as a slave but as free.

 1Corinthians 19-20

What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God’s.

 Because God purchased us He has a right to arrest us when we are possessin’ or packin’ things on or in our person that would be harmful or dangerous to others and ourselves. God has a legal right to seize you when you are carrying cares or worrying about what tomorrow may bring. He has a right to say, “Stop, in the name of the Lord, drop that care, put your hands up in the air and surrender!

He has a right to stop you or slow you down when you are spiritually, so to speak, driving wrecklessly at dangerously high speeds through the highways of life, with no direction or revelation of your God given purpose.When you are making repeated wrong decisions from your human reasoning or livng life in the flesh and not in the spirit, you need to be apprehended. God has a right to say, “Stop, pull over, you’re out of control, this car will be impounded for the next 30 days.”

Aren’t you glad for Divine interruptions? Many times through the preaching and teaching of the Word of God or through mere personal bible study and meditation, God has arrested me for my own good and safety.

All arrest aren’t bad, even in the natural, they sometimes save lives from the immature and destructive behaviors of others. Many police officers have pulled over drunken drivers because they were swerving in and out of their lanes. A night spent in jail for them probably saved their life and the lives of many others.

God loves you and wants the best for you. He is Father and watches over us affectionately. In order for us to arrive safely at our Divine Destinies we must continue to give God our undivided attention. Our lives and futures are important to God so don’t live life wrecklessly; without aim or direction. We must seek to lay hold of the thing for which Christ apprehended us for.

 It’s time to grow up, stand up and take our rightful place as the mature sons of God. Stay on track, pick-up the slack, and don’t even think about lookin back!

Stay watchful, Stay alert, Drive safely………………Pay attention!

 And let us not be offended when we have been spiritually rear ended but let us realize the driver was probably not paying attention.

LOVE THAT LASTS (Love Feast Day #14)

1 Corinthians 13:13

And so faith, hope, love abide [faith–conviction and belief respecting man’s relation to God and divine things; hope–joyful and confident expectation of eternal salvation; love–true affection for God and man, growing out of God’s love for and in us], these three; but the greatest of these is love.

LOVE FEAST DAY #14.

Oh my, what an awesome journey in love. Fourteen days of saturation and maturation in the love of God. We are moving up and flowing out totally consumed by God’s unfailing love working in us and through us. God’s love is bearing luscious fruit in our lives, the kind of fruit that shall remain and bring glory and honor to the Name that is above every name………….JESUS!

Don’t you just love being a person of love? Even though today is our last day of the LOVE FEAST, I know that you are addicted to love by now. I have full confidence that you will continue until Jesus returns, to exercise your faith concerning love and to love God and man and grow in love.

Today our love verse takes us to the finale’ of 14 days of sheer pleasure. Verse 13 reveals to us that three things abide: faith, hope and love. However the writer went on to say but the greatest of these three powers is love. No matter how strong or big our faith, no matter how great our hope without love they are nothing. The love of God is the foundation that holds everything else together. Without a strong foundation no house can stand, even against the smallest of storms. Love is vital. Love is life.

The love of God that is growing in you will never leave you or forsake you. It will never fail you. It will never betray you. It will never stand against as if to resist you in an effort to hinder your progress. Love is never selfish or lazy. It will never leave your mind hazy or make you go crazy. Love will be with you always even to the end.

Love will out live time and space. Love will be with you when you enter the final day of your earthly race. Love will prove itself true to you in every situation and circumstance. Love will advance the plan of God in your life and will propel you forward without vice or price. The love of God will treat you nice!

Enjoy this love everyday and purpose in your heart not to allow one day go by without yielding to it in some way. This love is true love. It is Love that Lasts !!

FACE TO FACE (Love Feast Day #13)

Posted on by
Reply

1Corinthians 13:12

For now we are looking in a mirror that gives only a dim (blurred) reflection [of reality as in a riddle or enigma], but then [when perfection comes] we shall see in reality and face to face! Now I know in part (imperfectly), but then I shall know and understand fully and clearly, even in the same manner as I have been fully and clearly known and understood [by God].

LOVE FEAST DAY #13.

Today we focus on yet again imperfect knowledge. Remember it is neither God nor His Word that are imperfect, it is our understanding. There is nothing imperfect about God. He is perfect and pure, through and through. He is Light and in Him there is no darkness at all.

We have spoken an extensive degree on this subject over the last few verses so today let us reflect, absorb and do what we have heard. It’s not enough for us to learn and meditate but we must put God’s Word to practice.

Let us focus on the perfect one which is God. He is our standard, not frail human flesh. Let us see ourselves complete in Him. In Him we lack nothing because He is our Shepherd; we shall not want or lack anything. The things that God has chosen to reveal to us are precious and sufficient for us. Let us thank Him for our food, our manna, our daily bread. The table of the Lord is loaded with all that we have need of and more.

One day we will see Him face to face. What a glorious day that will be. The scripture tells us in 1 John 3:1-2 (AMP)

SEE WHAT [[a]an incredible] quality of love the Father has given (shown, bestowed on) us, that we should [be permitted to] be named and called and counted the children of God! And so we are! The reason that the world does not know (recognize, acknowledge) us is that it does not know (recognize, acknowledge) Him.

Beloved, we are [even here and] now God’s children; it is not yet disclosed (made clear) what we shall be [hereafter], but we know that when He comes and is manifested, we shall [[b]as God’s children] resemble and be like Him, for we shall see Him [c]just as He [really] is.

That is indeed our spiritual quest…to resemble and be lke Him.

Resemble defined:

  • To be similar to somebody or something in appearance or behavior.

It can be so easy sometimes to fall backwards and try to identify with the humanness of man’s being. This kind of identifying will always lead us to making excuses for inabilities instead of looking to God’s grace and supernatural help. The cry to be common or just mere men is present daily in this world’s atmosphere and influences. Resembling and being like God is a journey not an impossiblity. There are many qualities about God that we see in His Word that may appear intimidating and far reaching to the natural mind. Sometimes we may see ourselves far from ever being like God. However, God had a purpose in telling us to be like Him. God was not trying to make fun of us when He said be ye holy for I am Holy. God is not trying to shame us at the end of our destinies here in the earth. God loves us and He has full confidence in His Word and His Spirit to complete the work He has started in us. However, we only know in part, we don’t know exactly how God will do what He said He will do but we trust Him and He is always true to His Word. If I tried to contemplate and figure out how God will work in me to perform this miraculous transformation I would become frustrated and discouraged because in and of myself I don’t see it but God knows it to be true. 

So, let’s just settle down and rest in His infinite wisdom and ability. Stop trying to figure everything out in your own my or according to some other human experience, we are His workmanship.

Let’s allow the Master Craftsman do what only He can do and what the results come shining through! He will noy share His glory with another…to God Be The Glory!!!! Forever and Ever Amen.

How Old Are You Really? (Love Feast Day #12)

Posted on by

1 Corinthians 13:11

When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things. .

LOVE FEAST day #11, simply heaven……on earth!

HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY TO ALL YOU LOVER’S OUT THERE!!

I love the verse of scripture that we are meditating on today. Oh my I teach/preach on it a lot.

Putting away childish things is a great indicator of spiritual growth and development. As we read this verse of scripture one can see the progression and procession of growth, from a child to a man/adult. You can clearly see how this doesn’t happen overnight. Our natural bodies were created by God. We were fearfully and wonderfully made by His Mighty Meticulous Hand. God “showed out” so to speak when He made man, wonderful are the works of His hand and that my soul knows quite well. He is truly an awesome Creator.

Children are precious; they are so full of life and energy. They are innocent little spirits waiting to be filled. They love to learn and try new things, always watching and downloading information from their surroundings. A child reaching full maturity one day, has a lot to do with the different influences in their live’s. Sometimes people are stunted in the growth process because of disease or abuse/neglect. They had the potential and genetic make up to be 6’5” but only reached 4’10 because of improper nutrition or being exposed or coming in contact with toxic agents in their environment. Potential doesn’t always produce the whole package of goods. Children are miniature adults who have not grown into their potential. It is always a horrific sight to see a person with growth retardation. Their lives just seem to be frozen or suspended in one phase of life. Spiritual retardation is very similar. Have you ever seen a person who has been a Christian for 20 plus years but yet spiritually their lives emulate someone who is just a babe in Christ?

They talk like a child, they think like a child, and they act like a child. In their own eyes they think they are mature because of the years but in reality somewhere along the way their spiritual growth and development was interrupted and corrupted. Our spiritual diet has a lot to do with our growth and development. If you feed on the wrong things it will produce wrong results. If you feed on right things you get right results.

The scripture tells us, “Like newborn babies you should crave (thirst for, earnestly desire) the pure (unadulterated) spiritual milk, that by it you may be nurtured and grow unto [completed] salvation, (1Peter 2:2 AMP).

I like that, don’t you? The word unadulterated means: not mixed or diluted with something else, untainted, untouched, and unmodified.

Can you imagine the harm a mother would bring to her newborn baby if she diluted the milk or mixed it with alcohol or other toxic substance? The baby would have devastating physical consequences. How much more if we receive diluted or tainted spiritual food? God’s will for every believer is that we grow and flourish. The Father wants us all to experience the proper growth and development so that we can reach full maturity and finish our Divine Destinies.

If you examined the words that come forth from your mouth on a daily bases do they sound like the spiritual vocabulary of a 2 year old? Now if you are a baby Christian that’s fine, you are where you are by the grace of God and as you continue to hunger and thirst after God you will be filled so that you can be nurtured and grow. However, if you have been saved and living a Christian life for many years you should have made some notable progress by now. What do your thoughts sound like? If we were to put a spiritual microphone up to your mind, what would we hear? How do you act when under pressure or persecution? Do you throw spiritual temper tantrums or do you display the love and peace of God? Are the works of the flesh still more a part of your life than the fruit of the spirit?

My friend if this describes your current spiritual condition please don’t get offended and run and hide. God loves you and desires to see you enjoy the abundant life. Many times the only thing we need to do to get back on track is make a few adjustments in our daily walk with God. Once you get in the flow again you will begin to see supernatural growth spurts in no time. Don’t allow Satan to frustrate your purpose by getting up-set every time you hear a word of correction or instruction for your life. It’s time to man-up/woman-up… you know what I mean :).

When I was a child certain behavior was tolerated and expected but when I became an adult the same behavior became repulsive. There’s nothing wrong about being a baby, actually babies are a joy to any life both spiritually and naturally but there comes a time when we all must grow up.

Romans 8:19

For [even the whole] creation (all nature) waits expectantly and longs earnestly for God’s sons to be made known [waits for the revealing, the disclosing of their sonship].

SEASONS CHANGE BUT LOVE REMAINS THE SAME (Love Feast Day #11)

Posted on by

1 Corinthians 13:10

But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.

Love Feast day #10.

Hello my friend, you are a winner! Your diligence and steadfast love for the Father is admirable. You are growing and abounding in Love which most certainly makes the Father smile. Love is working in you now. Love is working for you now. Praise God your love life is taking you places! You will never be the same again. Get ready my friend to experience great heights in faith because faith works by the love of God. Faith pleases God and God’s love never fails……. woo, woo……… how good is that my friend!

Today our love feast scripture continues to enlighten us on the perfect versus the imperfect or partial. It is God’s will that we some day reach perfection.

“…that ye may stand perfect and complete in all the will of God.” Colossians 4:12

But this is a process not an overnight success. We must be disciplined to continue on the road God has us on until we reach our journeys end. Remember, Job 8:7, “Though thy beginning was small, yet thy latter end should greatly increase.”

From today’s verse of scripture we do learn that there will be things that will be done away with, meaning we will not need them anymore. However, we will continue to need them until that day. This scripture is not meant for us to begin to devalue the things that will be done away with but to understand their place in the whole scheme of things. Just because it is only in part right now doesn’t mean it is not valuable, it is only necessary for a time and a season. We must learn to thank God for things that are only seasonal. Seasons change but the word of God remains the same. If something is just for a season of life then we have to appreciate the time we had it and then move on to what’s next. God has the full plan and we must trust His wisdom and guidance to do whatever He wants to do. Jesus said, not my will but thy will be done, why, because He totally trusted the Father. He was not afraid to let God’s will be done. He knew that whatever the Father wanted to do it would be good no matter what it looked like at the onset. There are certain details about the plan of God for our own lives that we may not know at certain times but just know that God will reveal to us what we need to know when we need to know it, Hallelujah! God’s plan is perfect and we can rest assure that He will not fail. However, not only is God’s plan perfect but He also wants to make you perfect or complete in that plan. Listen to Hebrews 13:21:

Make you perfect in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is wellpleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.

Let us have an expectation for perfection in our lives, why, because that’s the will of God for you and me!

The word perfection generally denotes maturity. It is a measuring tool to help us have a goal or a destination to reach. God wants us to grow and grow and grow. Proper spiritual growth and development will only occur when the main ingredient is love, otherwise, there is spiritual retardation or handicaps. God’s will is that we be made perfect and complete.

So as the seasons of your life change remember, love remains the same.

WE ARE COMPLETE IN LOVE (Love Feast Day # 10)

Posted on by

1 Corinthians 13:10 (AMP)

But when the complete and perfect (total) comes, the incomplete and imperfect will vanish away (become antiquated, void, and superseded).

LOVE FEAST day #10.

Welcome all you lovers! I know that one thing is for sure, God’s word is true and it is powerful. These verses of scripture in 1 Corinthians 13 are life changing; they possess the power of life, the God kind of life. God’s word will produce good fruit that will bring glory to His Name!

Today our love verse connects with our verse on Saturday, verse #9. We only know in part, we are not know it all’s but we do know the one who does know all things. God desires that we trust Him in all things and that we become confident in His love, knowing that He will never withhold revelation from us when we need it. The scripture says in the book of James1:5 (AMP):

If any of you is deficient in wisdom, let him ask of the giving God [Who gives] to everyone liberally and ungrudgingly, without reproaching or faultfinding, and it will be given him.

God is a giving God. He is not indifferent to our needs here on the earth. Nor does He require us to beg Him and plead as if He is reluctant to bless us. God is our Father. He is our Creator. He loves us with an everlasting, unfailing, unconditional love. Just because the scripture above says our knowledge is imperfect doesn’t mean God’s is imperfect, we are human He is Divine. God is always willing to open to us His good treasure of thoughts and ways and impart to us all that we need and hunger for. Psalms 84:11 declares:

For the LORD God is a sun and shield: the LORD will give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly.

God will with-hold no good thing from us, Hallelujah! We can know things that we didn’t know before. The Holy Spirit is here to teach us and guide us. God has not short-changed us, He has lavishly blessed us. One word from God totally supersedes the highest human intellectuals in the world. God said in Isaiah 55:8-9:

For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.

We can always have access to the things we need to know and those things that we don’t need to know, just let it alone. Before Jesus went back to the Father in Heaven one of the disciples asked Him a question about the future and Jesus replied:

… It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power. (Acts 1:7

However He then proceeded to tell them the things they did need to know. We must be content to know that God knows what we need to know and that He will reveal them to us as we seek to know His thoughts and His ways.God is Love and that Love makes us whole. We are complete in Him!

YOU’RE NOT A KNOW-IT-ALL (Love Feast Day #9)

Posted on by

1 Corinthians 13:9

For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.

LOVE FEAST, day #8

Welcome to day #8 of the LOVE FEAST. It is a joy to focus on God and His Kingdom. The world is so dark and contrary to the light of God. We must stay alert and strong in Christ, choosing the ways and knowledge of God over the ways of this world. Love keeps us steady and God conscious.

Many people are hazed by the smoke of deception and ignorant delusions of the enemy. The word haze refers to something that is vague and serves to obscure something. When a person is hazed there is a disorienting of mental and physical faculties. The devil is a hazer. He seeks to bring persecution into someone’s life to cloud or obscure their vision or God given purpose, in an attempt to gain control and bring the person under subordination to demonic strongholds. Love neutralizes the smoke and lifts it up out of the way so that you can see to go forward in all truth.

Neutralize defined:

• To make something ineffective, especially by removing its ability to act as a threat or obstacle.

Love neutralizes the threat of the smoke. You know when you are in a room full of smoke one of the things it does is affect your eye sight, the smoke will begin to burn or irritate your eyes, this in turn will obscure your vision. However it is not the will of God that your sight physical or spiritual be hazed. God wants us to have clear: understanding, purpose, vision, direction, perception etc. through Divine insight and revelation by the Holy Spirit.

Our Love Feast verse today teaches us that we know in part but that doesn’t mean we will not know what we need to know in order to fulfill everything God has called us to do and to live a victorious Christian life here on the earth. I don’t know about you but I don’t want to know what God doesn’t want me to know. God told Adam and Eve not to eat or partake of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, evidently He didn’t want them to have that knowledge. We must learn to be satisfied with what God gives us and not feel cheated with what He says don’t eat. God will never keep anything from us that we need to succeed; He is for us not against us. However there are something’s that we will only know in part. But we don’t need to know everything because we have the one who does know everything living right on the inside of us, we can trust Him. God will always reveal to us what we need to know when we need to know it. Don’t frustrate your purpose by focusing on things unknown to you today, God will never leave you with HELP! The Holy Spirit is our Comforter, He will always be with us to guide us and reveal truth to us. He Knows IT All.

LOVE NEVER FAILS (Love Feast Day #8)

Posted on by
Reply

1 Corinthians 13:8

Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.

LOVE FEAST day #8.

It’s so refreshing to our whole man (spirit, soul and body) to receive love manna from Heaven. It is like a cleansing rain that gently waters every fiber of our being until it is pleasantly saturated and overflowing like a river. I believe this makes the Father smile.

Today is day #8 of our LOVE FEAST and it sure is wonderful. Charity or love never fails, my oh my, we could talk about that for a long time. I am sure that most Christian’s bear personal testimony of the unfailing love of God. The bible reminds us in the book of Hebrews that even when we are not faithful to God, God (or we can stay Love) is always faithful to us. God is always faithful not to fail us.

Fail defined:

• To be unsuccessful in trying to do something.

• To be incapable of doing something or unwilling to do it.

• To abandon, forsake, or let somebody down by not doing what is expected or needed.

 As you can see from those definitions the word fail does not fit anywhere in God’s character or nature. God doesn’t even know how to fail. He is perfect in every way. Love is never unwilling or incapable of doing anything from God’s word and righteous nature for us. However, Love will never violate God’s word, it will never do anything contrary to God’s will or way. That’s why Love never fails.

Love never fails to be present for us every minute of the day. If you are facing what appears to be a difficult situation just know love will never let you down. Love will never leave you to face life alone. Love will never abandon you when you need it most. Love is never too busy to hear your hearts cry. Love will never helplessly turn its head as to say, “Sorry I can’t help you, this time.” Love will never pity you but rather stand passionately over you and see you to the other side in victory. Love is never indifferent to your dreams and visions. Love never fails.
