GOD is LOVE* . . .

LOVE is not a feeling, LOVE is a Person, and YESHUA/JESUS is the only begotten Son of LOVE. For no reason other than love, the One who is LOVE, took on flesh to show us how to live a life powered by the GOD kind of love. The Blood of the precious Lamb of LOVE paid the full ransom to redeem our right standing with LOVE; Reconciled us unto the Family of LOVE with all rights and privileges as heirs of LOVE and co-heirs with Christ Jesus, the Son of LOVE. 

Praying the WORD of Ephesians 3:16-19 (NIV; MSG) – “Abba Father, I pray that out of all Your glorious riches, You may strengthen me with power by Your Spirit in my inner being so that Christ Jesus lives in my heart by faith. And I pray that being rooted and established in love, I may have power together with all the saints to grasp what is the length and the breadth and the depth and the height – the full dimension of Christ Jesus’ love, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge, that I may be filled with all the fullness of You.” (personalized)

Praying the WORD of Philippians 1:9-11 (AMP) – “Father, may my love abound more and more and extend to its fullest development in knowledge and all keen insight [that my love may display itself in greater depth of acquaintance and more comprehensive discernment]. So that I may surely grasp what is vital and of real value; that I may be sincere and without offense until the day of Christ Jesus’ return [neither stumbling nor causing others to stumble]. And that as a branch in the Vine who is Jesus, I bear much fruit to the honor, praise and glory of You with thanksgiving, in Jesus’ Name.” (personalized)

*Note: Throughout the night of 12/22/2022 I dreamed that I was to write more about the fact that God is Love (1 John 4:8,16). Several hours later I was reminded via Facebook “memories” of this writing which I posted five years earlier on 12/22/2017. Amazed, all I could say is: “The LORD God surely knows how to work a thing . . .”.

“Please rescue me from my enemies, LORD! I come to you for safety. You are my God. Show me what you want me to do, and let your gently Spirit lead me in the right path.” Ps 143:9-10 (CEV)
