The Lordship Of Christ (4) Through Receiving His Love
CHRIST demonstrates His love in many ways to His creation. Him being the totality of all that love means, shows His Lordship through how He loves, care, guides…
THEREFORE, the way He loves also positioned Him in power to conquer & reign over all things.
If we look at the following two Scriptures, we can see how powerful the forgiving love of Christ really is, that we also have to walk in.
Pro 10:12 Hatred stirs up strife, But love covers all sins.
Pro 17:9 He who covers a transgression seeks love, But he who repeats a matter separates friends.
WE also see that the LOVE of Christ is so powerful that it came to overhaul all the restrictions of the law. This love that moved Him to give His life for us & become our Lord.
THE Lordship of Christ over us came at a tremendous cost. We should therefore consider His love daily in prayer for authenticity to receive it afresh – in an authentic way & NEVER allow it to become a familiarity.
THE power behind His love is that which saves a whole world! His love is powerful. It should be treated with respect and NOT be taken for granted or become a familiar word on our tongues. WE should purposefully receive His love continuously & into every situation & area in our lives.
PRAYER:
OUR prayer tonight, for ourselves & others flow then from the following:
Eph 3:17-18
(17) May Christ through your faith [actually] dwell (settle down, abide, make His permanent home) in your hearts! May you be rooted deep in love and founded securely on love,
(18) That you may have the power and be strong to apprehend and grasp with all the saints [God’s devoted people, the experience of that love] what is the breadth and length and height and depth [of it]
THANK You, Lord Jesus,
That Your love is meant to change our lives continuously so that we may reap from the supernatural power of it & be filled to be able to pour it onto others.
WE receive Your love now into every area & the deepest fibre of our being for healing, for strength, for wisdom & glory.
Amen & amen!
