……â€And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us†(Romans 5:5). People everywhere are hungry for love, acceptance, and forgiveness. People of every age and walk of life need genuine, caring relationships. However some of God’s children have lost confidence in each other for reasons related to past disappointments. Avoiding close friendships, they’d rather build emotional walls to protect themselves from experiencing any more pain. “In the world you have tribulation and trials and distress and frustration…†(John......

There is something about righteousness, peace and joy. Righteousness is the nature of God that gives a man the ability to stand in the presence of God without any sense of guilt, inferiority complex or condemnation. It gives a man right standing with God — the ability to do right. This is the nature of every believer in Christ. When you look into his eyes, you see love. His lifestyle reflects the righteousness, peace and joy that is in the Holy Ghost. He does not move alone. He is led by the......

“There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love†(1 John 4:18). There’s no fear whatsoever in perfect love. If your child has ever welcomed you by jumping on you with his dirty hands, you’ll understand what I mean. Your child’s action was based on his love for you and excitement to see you; he isn’t afraid of punishment for he expects you to respond with the same love and affection. That’s perfect love. There are children who are......

“There is no fear in love; but per fect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love†(1 John 4:18). Some people become uneasy when we start talking about the coming of the Lord. “What will God say to me? Will He be pleased with what I did?†they wonder. You shouldn’t become afraid or uncomfortable with the topic; instead, be glad about it. The Bible says, “In this love is brought to completion {and} attains perfection with us,......

A dedicated nation, own purchased, special people, that you may set forth the wonderful deeds {and} display the virtues and perfections of Him Who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light†(1 Peter 2:9). The Bible says you are God’s own purchased, special person. In other words, you’re God’s best! The reason you look at yourself small is that you don’t know who you are; you haven’t seen yourself in the mirror of God’s Word. To understand your value, you must contemplate the cost of your salvation. To see your price tag......

…..â€God is faithful, by whom ye were called unto the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord†(1 Corinthians 1:9). Every Christian has been called into fellowship with the Lord by spiritual law. However, not all of them are in fellowship with the Lord by love. To fellowship by law means He has brought you into partnership or fellowship with Him. On the other hand, to fellowship by love means there is an intimacy in your relationship with Him. A man can get married to a woman and become one with her by......

“Love is kind and patient, never jealous, boastful, proud, or rude. Love isn’t selfish or quick tempered. It doesn’t keep a record of wrongs that others do†(1 Corinthians 13:4-5 CEV). Dwelling on an offence for too long can cause bitterness, which in turn can lead to depression. The moment you permit anger to linger when someone offends you, you’re on your way into depression. Depression is an extreme degree of sadness and it’s unhealthy; it could open the door of your life to devils and all kinds of diseases. It quenches the......
