It’s in your DNA!

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.”

Nothing can separate us!

When I read Romans 8:31-39, I am greatly encouraged, and my faith grows stronger. Here are the verses, and below that, I share 7 quick thoughts for you to consider today.

Romans 8:31-39 31 What, then, shall we say in response to this? If God is for us, who can be against us? 32 He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all — how will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things? 33 Who will bring any charge against those whom God has chosen? It is God who justifies. 34 Who is he that condemns? Christ Jesus, who died — more than that, who was raised to life — is at the right hand of God and is also interceding for us. 35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? 36 As it is written: “For your sake we face death all day long; we are considered as sheep to be slaughtered.”  37 No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. 38 For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, 39 neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. 

  1. God is for us.
  2. He graciously gives us all things.
  3. God has justified us through Christ perfect sacrifice.
  4. The Lord Jesus is continuously interceding for us.
  5. We are more than Conquerors through Christ.
  6. Nothing can separate us from the Love of God that is found in Christ Jesus our Lord.
  7. Even though we go through trials and tribulations, He is there together with us because nothing can separate us. 

Always remember, we can do all things through Christ Who strengthens us every day!
