In First John 4: 7,8,and 11, God’s command for us to love one another is revealed. God is love and when we were born again, it became part of our DNA. The enemy of our souls has attacked the soul of this nation and has succeeded in dividing its citizens. So many are walking in hate, offense, and unforgiveness. This has created an open wound in our nation that can only be healed by the Love of God! These verses also reveal that if we don’t love, we do not truly know God because God is Love. Finally, it stresses that we ought to love one another just like God loves us. This is our challenge in this generation; To love even when love is not returned to us.; To forgive, even when others do not appreciate it; To act kindly and graciously, even when others are disrespecting us. If God is truly in you, His Love will flow through you. If His Love is not flowing through you, it simply means that you do not really know God, because God is Love!
1 John 4: 7,8,11: “7. Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. 8. He who does not love does not know God, for God is love. 11. Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.”
