LOVE AGAINST ALL ODDS

THE EYES OF DISCERNMENT
November 8, 2022[John 3: 14-16]
God loved you while you were part of the world. He did not just give up on us but what motivated Him was the love He had. Destruction and everything did not motivate Him to give with His Son. Love was speaking. For Jesus to die, it was not because people were perishing but because of love. God wants us to move and live by love and not what we are going through or our surroundings.
He gave because He loved us. His love was so sufficient that it saved us. Jesus died on the cross because of love. For us to be saved we needed to believe in the love demonstrated on the cross. Love without action is null and void. There is an expression to show that love reigns. Where there is love, people cannot perish. Death was conquered by love.
Whoever believes in the love (God) will not perish. Love needs to be the motive. Love must be the one that moves. How do we fail while we do not know anything yet God knows, but He still loves? He shows us that it is possible to have knowledge yet still love. The love He had for the world was not dependent on how people saw Him.
[John 1: 1-11]
How do you love someone you do not know? He loved the world even though it did not know Him. His own did not receive Him. Even though He knew that the world would not receive Him, He still loved. Why is our love conditional, yet the love of God was without conditions? He is the beginning and the end and He knows everything. The people He died for are those He knew would not receive Him.
It seemed like God was wasting His time. What should stop us to love? People check if they will benefit for them to love. We do not love because of conditions. Love is without conditions even though you do not receive anything, Love does not have a condition of loving from afar. Love brings us closer. We were reconciled through Jesus Christ [Love].
Where there is love people come together. The Bible says the just shall live by faith.
(Verse 11) Where there is love, there is life. The answer to immortality is love.
[Romans 1:16-17]
The Gospel is the power of God to salvation. It is the power to those who are saved. As long you have the Word, you have power. I am not talking about anointing or gifts but those who have inherited salvation. Power does not come from anointing or a gift. The question is not in how anointed you are but if you have the Word. The righteousness of God is revealed in it.
Before someone can pray for someone they need to think if they are spiritually fine or what. That is a sign of the absence of the Word.
From the Word, the righteousness of God is revealed. You will not depend on your own righteousness. When the righteousness of God is revealed you do not look at yourself but at the Word.
A self-confident person cannot heal a person but one who is confident in God doesn’t just heal a person. He prevents a person from perishing. He is driven by the righteousness of God. The only thing that can save us is the love of God. Whoever believes in the love of God will not perish. I am not teaching you to depend on your deeds. No matter how much you testify about the righteousness you have received, never pride yourself in it.
The Word of God lives in you. Faith comes by hearing the Word of God and not what you have done. What we have done we count it as nothing and look at what God says. The just shall live by faith. The volume of the Word in you determines your faith. That person is not healed not because you are not anointed but because of your faith. Every doubting thought needs to be brought down.
The battle in your mind is of nature, knowledge, and the Word of God. Also experience and what you see. Are you praying for the sick because they are sick? Then that is not faith. Hence we do not pray because of what we are going through. When it says to pray at all times in Spirit it is only prayers that are offered in Spirit that can be answered. Not prayers of what you are going through.
Prayer is an investment that when you are in trouble you are able to withdraw. When sickness comes you withdraw from your prayer. When someone is sick you withdraw and do not pray for the sickness. Faith comes by hearing the Word. You pray in faith when you hear the Word and pray. By His stripes, we are healed! That prayer is archived for you. When you get sick, you know that you need to withdraw from that prayer and not pray against sickness.
God showed Abraham that Israelites would be slaves so Abraham can pray for them. Abraham had a vision of the Israelites being enslaved. His duty was to pray not because of the situation but because of what He saw in the Spirit. Hence Joseph said to them that when they go out of that place they must take his bones. He was speaking based on answered prayers. The prayer has already been offered.
He knows the prayers are archived.
Joseph sees the prayer in the Spirit of Abraham so he knew that even though they will be enslaved, he prayed and they will be answered. These prayers were answered even before they could see the results. The order of the Spirit is; when one is healthy they pray that by His stripes they are healed. Now when one is sick, he confesses that he is healed. When there is an archive of prayer, God has answered your prayers.
Love is the motive and not the problem. If you continue to move because of the problem you will not move in love. The deeper you are in the Word then the deeper your prayers are. As you eat the Word, you pray! When it is like that you will not pray a prayer motivated by situations. People are motivated by situations because they did not have a prayer life. When you do not have a prayer life, you will respond to situations not pray against them.
You cannot speak to situations when you do not pray. An empty person cannot command. No Word comes down and goes back without doing its work. The Word is released. Faith comes by hearing the Word. The just shall live by faith. Everyone wants to be something. As a Christian, you must not lose the reason why you are a Christian. The minute you cannot manifest the Word and the love of God, then you lost your sense of being a Christian.
You have heard the message of love so if you fail to become what love is then you lack faith in you. You were hearing the message to become. It is time to love in such a way that those who were once far off, bring them closer to you. Love and experience do not go together. Love does not predict the future but experience does. Love does not keep a record of wrong. If you have been abused in any way, it is time to stop being responsive to it. Do not speak the language of abuse.
There are thieves who come to your house to rob you, give them food! If jail was the solution then we would be having many saints. Love is the solution. God did not crucify hell but love. . Love saves! Stop doubting love. If you believe then no one will perish. Love does not mean there is no rebuke. After the rebuke, you must forget what you have done. Do not keep that record of wrong.
The love of God must be extreme. Why are we extreme in many things but do not want to be extreme in what defines God? Many become extreme in their gifts and not in love. Next time when people see you they must say that love has walked in. When you do not have love you predict the end of a person. Where there is no love there is judgement. Many have been judges even amongst one another. Love thinks the best of others.
You predict things because you know. In love, you are able to forget all the wrongs they have done. No one can please God except by faith. You do not please God by prophesying things you want to see. Faith comes by hearing the Word of God. One needs to see the Word to have faith. In that, the just shall live by faith. Your response must be of the Word. Your situation must not speak.
There must be a difference between the faith of a believer and an unbeliever. All problems make people react. That is not faith. Some use their own methods but God is teaching us to live above our circumstances. Think back and look at what you have been praying for and ask yourself what motivated you. Did you believe in the Word or the situation? When you believe in your situation, you will react to it.
[Ephesians 4: 3-12]
We have not just received a share but the fullness of God. Everyone has equal grace yet they are not aware of it. Our grace is the same according to the gift of Christ’s gift. A saint will be equipped because of these gifts. Those who are given to be apostles will equip the saints for the work of ministry. Your ministry is active every day. Until we have the knowledge of the Word that is when we have the unity of faith. Believe in the Word. Believe the message and not that you can heal the sick.
Those who believe in the message can raise the dead and do all. The just shall live by faith. Indeed the message of love will build up your faith. The message of performing signs, miracles, and wonders, encourages us and does not build faith. Think of a person you hate and do not want to see when they are sick will you be able to pray for them? Without love it becomes impossible. When you move in love you are able to be with those who gossip about you.
Love will cost you everything yet in the end it saves. When Jesus went to the cross, He lost everything yet no one perished. Love prevailed. Love can still win in our daily lives. We need to show love. We need to revisit those cases where we acted out of love even with our family members. This is being the child of God. Become the first in your family to reconcile with everyone. Israel thought they knew God but Jesus said to bring them together.
This is the only Gospel that brings different cultures together. Love makes different people walk together. What I am is what the Word gave to me. Love works in mysterious ways. What you were before, you do not become. People must see and accept a changed person. Our families will not be moved by healing and deliverance, but by the love you portray. Love prevails. It will outlast everything.
You can heal the sick, and even cast out demons, but what we must preach is love. The world has experienced both fake and original. We need to show forth love. What will maintain the Gospel is love. All display signs and wonders and have followers but love prevails. We need to be differentiated by love. They can imitate what we do yet we need to love.
[1 Corinthians 13: 1-5]
Love suffers long. We all want to be wise. Love suffers long because it is patient. Why cannot you use patience in hope of someone getting better? I know the mistakes most of you did yet when you minister I do not remember what you have done but I receive from you. Love bears all! Yet why can’t you do that amongst yourselves? Without love, you will not be able to receive. Love is calling you deeper.
For prophet Hosea to convey the message that God wanted him to, he had to marry a prostitute. That message He wanted the prophet to go through it. For God to convey a revelation, He had to take him through it to teach about it. It must be easy to receive a message of love because you failed to love. God does not just end a revelation but He takes you through it. You need to teach it until you manifest that revelation. You need to manifest love.
It is easy to receive the revelation when you have become. Every Word that has been taught needs to be tested. Teaching comes with higher testing. There are things you will encounter that will cause you not to manifest this love. The love you have been taught needs to be tested. The message needs to be active regardless. It is dangerous to hear the Word.
When you say the Lord is the provider, you will be tested. When you preach forgiveness you will be tested. What I taught you if you fail to meditate on it then you fail the test. If what I am teaching you will not be rooted in you, you will fail. The Word has come that you need to love. When the test comes, remember to love. Teaching provokes demons. The devil did not say to Jesus to turn the stone into bread not because He did not know the scriptures. Jesus knew and was tested with what He knows.
You were taught about love so you need to pass the test. The test does not come before but after you are taught. Do not take the teachings for granted. Teach yourself to revisit what God has taught you. Practice what you have heard so that when you are tested you may remain. For you do not know the hour of trial. All you need to know is the Word. You must not revisit the message when now you are in trouble. But it is for you to meditate.
All that I teach is prophetical. It is not just with me, but with every minister who is leading sheep, for what they are taught, they will be tested. You need to meditate and become. Even though you are taught and you know, you need to still go back to past messages about love and learn. Love always wins. There is no weapon that is stronger than love. Love always wins.
The taste of victory is not nice. You taste and can still reject. The taste of love can be what you do not want because it makes you look like a fool. There is no master of love. No one was born knowing how to love but when the Word comes in, we accept and live according to it. When people saw it impossible, love prevailed!
