RELY ON HIS LOVE

1 John 4:16 And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them. (NIV)

One thing that is central to our life and the Gospel of Jesus is the love of God. God loves you. This should mean something to you. It means He takes notice of you and that His attention is on you for good and not for evil. You can rely on His love.

In a world where we do not know who to trust or rely on, we can trust and rely on God because He loves us. And more than that He is Himself love. It is impossible for Him to change His nature of love. He will always love you.

We are victorious not because of anything of ourselves but of Him and His love. The only thing that could separate you from the love of God is you. God wouldn't separate from you. No devil can separate you from God's love and blessings. 
Romans 8:35-37 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? As it is written: "For your sake we face death all day long; we are considered as sheep to be slaughtered." [^10] No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.

We are not just conquerors, the Bible says we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. This makes it even more easier to rely on Him because it doesn't require us deserving it but that He loves us. 

Romans 8:38-39 For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, [^11] neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Nothing has the ability in itself to separate you from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. So rely on His love. It doesn't matter what you are faced with. It doesn't matter how long the predicament had been, it still doesn't matter your love for Him. All that matters is His love for you. Just know, understand His love and rely on it; trust Him with the circumstances of your life.

PRAYER

Father I know you love me not only because it's written in your Word but also I have experienced it. Irrespective of what is happening or may happen around me I choose to rely on your love, because you love me I am more than a conqueror, I am convinced that nothing can separate me from your love. in Jesus' Name. Amen.

BREAKFAST WITH JESUS

BREAKFAST WITH JESUS A daily devotional Pastor Stanley 23rd DECEMBER 2023 REJOICE IN THE LORD ALWAYS Philippians 4:4 Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! (NIV) The Apostle Paul writing to the Church in Philippi, said they should rejoice in the Lord always. He didn't say they should rejoice in themselves but in the Lord. That calls for spiritual insight.  It takes spiritual insight to see what we got in the Lord and rejoice. When you are ask to rejoice over something it means that it holds significance and value. No nobody would ask you to rejoice over something that's not to your advantage. We have everything to our advantage in Christ, and it is our responsibility to recognize them and rejoice.  Looking at your physical environment and, maybe the circumstances of your life you might have reasons to feel bad and dejected. But looking in the Lord and who you are in Him, you would find not only the glorious you but also answers to all your questions.  W...

THE DAUGHTER OF JEZEBEL introduction

CONTENTS AND INTRODUCTION CONTENTS Chapter One -- CHARACTERS OF JEZEBEL Chapter Two -- THE DAUGHTER OF JEZEBEL Chapter Three -- HER MISSION Chapter Four -- IF SHE BECOMES YOUR WIFE Chapter Five -- A FALSE PROPHET INTRODUCTION In humility I write this book to the Man of God not to be unaware of the devices of the devil. 2 Corinthians 2:11 in order that Satan might not outwit us. For we are not unaware of his schemes. I write to remind the Man of God that one of the schemes of Satan against the servant of God is "The Daughter of Jezebel." Before talking about the Daughter of Jezebel, who is Jezebel?  THE JEZEBEL IN THE BIBLE Jezebel was the daughter of Ethbaal King of Sidon. Ahab the King of Israel married her which of course was against the Lord's instruction to Israel not to marry among the nations around them. She was mainly responsible for all the evil Ahab King of Israel committed in the sight of God. She killed many of the Lord's Prophets in Israel. She was a swor...

BREAKFAST WITH JESUS

BREAKFAST WITH JESUS A daily devotional Pastor Stanley 14th JANUARY 2024 FORGIVE AS THE LORD FORGAVE YOU Colossians 3:13-14 Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity. (NIV) We should not have offense we cannot forgive. But at times we find ourselves in a situation where forgiveness seems difficult. If we apply our emotions and how hurt we are, it will be difficult to forgive. But if we consider how God forgave us then forgiving others would be easy.  There are things to note in our opening scripture; Bear with each other; forgive one another; grievance against someone; forgive as the Lord forgave you; put on love.  To bear with someone means to tolerate. If we cannot tolerate we cannot forgive. Then it says forgive one another; this means that we talk our differences over and forgive each other -- I forgive yo...

BREAKFAST WITH JESUS

 BREAKFAST WITH JESUS A daily devotional Pastor Stanley 13th OCTOBER 2023 YOU ARE THE SEED OF ABRAHAM Galatians 3:16,29 The promises were spoken to Abraham and to his seed. Scripture does not say "and to seeds," meaning many people, but "and to your seed," meaning one person, who is Christ. ...If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.(NIV) We are not Abraham's seeds but Abraham's seed. Abraham has one spiritual seed and that seed is Christ. If you are in Christ you are the seed of Abraham. All the blessings and promises God gave to Abraham are actually fulfilled in you. The promise of blessing God made to Abraham was of two sides; physical and spiritual.  Genesis 13:15 For all the land which thou seest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed for ever.  Abraham and his physical seed did enjoy the physical side of the blessing. But the spiritual side was reserved for the spiritual seed; those in Christ. The spir...

BREAKFAST WITH JESUS

 BREAKFAST WITH JESUS A daily devotional Pastor Stanley 16th OCTOBER 2023 INCREASE IN GRACE AND PEACE 2 Peter 1:2 Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord,(NIV) God has given everyone of us Grace and Peace in Christ. But how much of them we enjoy depends on our knowledge of God and Jesus our Lord. Knowledge here refers to intimate knowledge which comes through relationship. The level of Grace and Peace we enjoy is directly connected to our relationship and fellowship with God. The deeper your relationship with Him the greater your peace and grace.  If you find yourself wanting peace or grace what you need is not prayer but a meditation on the Word and how it relates with you. You can choose to increase the Grace and Peace of God in your life by increasing your knowledge of, relationship and fellowship with God. The scripture says Grace and Peace can be multiplied unto you through your knowledge of God and of Jesus Christ our Lo...
