Reading passage:- John 13:35
35.By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.
Love most times works as a magnet since everyone desires to be loved. Our Lord Jesus Christ shared a big secret with His disciples, this was the secret of winning more souls for Him. The secret to winning soul for Him is love, He said anyone who lives his fellow brother or sister in the Lord will automatically draws the attention of another, this is because everyone is looking or seeking to for love, that's to be loved and when they find it, it tends to be hard to leave that vicinity because its all loving and conducive.
Now I pause to ask how do you feel when you attend a church for the very first time and you are welcomed in a tremendous way, you feel elated, you feel loved, you feel relaxed, you feel happy.
Personally if I go to visit someone in his or her house and I am not welcomed in love then I will likely not go back there again because I hate to be unloved, to me that environment us toxic so I have exit the confines of that environment as soon as I can.
Surprisingly we have an enemy the moment we try to show or express genuineLove and that's the devil, he seeks to destroy of any relationship that centres on true love(agape), he tries to put confusion in it, knowing fully well that together they can push mountain because the love each other.
It is pertinent for the church to find a solution to anyone who was once good at showing love, perhaps was caring all in a godly way drifting away or being unnecessary hateful to anything or everyone. The devil isn't tired of ideas he could use talebearers, backbiters, gossipers, and critics to cause the love of in church among members to fade away. Charity services should be encouraged, you see when we back up our love with actions, it will attract those in the world and they will see, and will find it easy to accept Jesus as their Lord and Personal Saviour.
Let Love Lead.
I pray God helps us and I pray we won't be weary in doing good just as the Bible advices us in the book of Galatians 6:9-10.
9.And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.
10.we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith.
I remain
