Love is Strife Free

Father, I strive to live in peace with all men. I do not walk in the counsel of the wicked, nor stand in the path of sinners, nor sit with the sarcastic. I turn away and do not answer those who accuse me. I come to terms quickly with those who say I owe them; not defending myself but trusting in you to exonerate me. I do well to those who hate me. Bless those who curse me. Pray for those who mistreat me. Give to everyone who asks of me and go the extra mile. I choose to overlook transgression and offense. I choose not to rain on someone’s parade. I choose not to throw wood on the fire. I cover the sins of my brothers with love. I do not count myself the greatest but the least. I do not get into contention

Love Does…

Father, You are love and I rely on that love to love others. Love is sincere. Love hates evil and clings to what is good. Love is devoted to one another and gives preference to one another. Love never loses its zeal when serving the Lord. Love is joyful in hope, patient in affliction and faithful in prayer. Love shares with Gods people who are in need. Love practices hospitality where ever it is. Love blesses those who persecute and curse us. Love rejoices with those who rejoice and mourns with those who mourn. Love lives in harmony with one another if at all possible. Love is not proud but associates with those of low position. Love is not conceited. Love does not repay evil for evil. Love is careful to do what is right in everyone’s eyes

Love Is

Father, I am in Christ, Christ is in You and You are in me. Love is patient; in Christ I am patient. Love is kind; in Christ I am kind. Love does not envy; in Christ I do not envy. Love does not boast; in Christ I do not boast. Love is not proud; in Christ I am not proud. Love is not rude; in Christ I am not rude. Love is not self-seeking; in Christ I am not self-seeking. Love is not easily angered; in Christ I am not easily angered.

Herein is Love

Father, herein is love, not that I loved you but that you first loved me and if I love others your love is made perfect in me. I have the love of God shed abroad in my heart by the Holy Spirit to love my family, friends and enemies. You are making me perfect in love. Knowledge puffs up but love edifies. Perfected love casts out fear. I have no fear of punishment but great respect for your mercy. Because of your enduring mercy I can see afar off many people repenting and I run to embrace them like the father of the prodigal son. Like Jesus I stand at the door knocking and waiting for my brothers to open up to be strengthened and encouraged. Love comes from a pure heart, good conscience and sincere faith. I know I have passed on from death

Scripture

but sanctify Christ as Lord in your hearts, always being ready to make a defense to everyone who asks you to give an account for the hope that is in you, yet with gentleness and reverence; - 1 Peter 3:15 KJV

What I tell you in the darkness, speak in the light; and what you hear whispered in your ear, proclaim upon the housetops. - Matthew 10:26-28 KJV

Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water. Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;) And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works: Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching. - Hebrews 10:22-25 KJV

How do I get saved?

Jesus said if you want to follow me, you must lose your life. A higher standard than the typical ask Jesus into your heart confession. You have to start somewhere, so make the confession, but then do what Jesus said daily if you really believe in him. Jesus continued telling those who want to follow him that they must also take up their cross. Which means following Jesus will put you under the microscope of today's society. But that is part of the plan of losing your life so that you may live for him eternally. And why would you want to follow Jesus with all the trouble that goes with being his disciple? Because he is the only way through death to eternal life. He is not showing us the way. He is the way!

What is 'Walk with me'?

We are living in the Enoch generation. Enoch walked with God and was found no more because God took him. To walk with God means to hear, to reflect, and then to go out into all the world proclaiming Christ crucified. As a Bible teacher, I have several websites that help people walk with God. If you don't have a church home, walk with me until you do. Walk with me is my version of onboarding people into the Kingdom of God. Subscribe to the Walk with me Newsletter to begin.
