Love for the World DAY 1

That’s 15 verses before and 15 verses after, taking note of historical, cultural, literary, and theological context.

Now let’s Reflect

Use the S.O.A.P Bible Method to break down the meaning of scripture.

John 3:16

A well-known verse demonstrates God’s sacrifice for humanity. It shows us that “love isn’t just something God does, but who he is”  Love is an expression of God’s Character.

Sacrifice DAY 3

“The very essence of God is LOVE. Every action He takes, every boundary He sets, every promise He makes, comes from this essence of Love, and flows from this core reality.”

– Bible in a YEAR

Let’s read  1 John 4:7-8 & 1 Cor 13:4-8 in Context

 1 John 4:7-8; 1 Cor 13:4-8 


The first time I came across God’s Love was through a wall picture art.

 

Бог Є Любов! (Ukrainian Translation)
God is Love
 
At about 7 or 8 years old,
I wondered, God is Love? What is Love? 
 
No one taught me love, no one talked about love,
but the picture spoke a thousand words!
 
God is LOVE.
 
It made me question, what is Love? 
 
The God that we believe in nature is LOVE.
 
Love does no wrong; Love always wants what’s best for you, Love heals, restores.

Sacrifice DAY 3

Let’s read Romans 5:8 in Context

Now let’s Reflect

Romans 5:8

Demonstates this powerful truth to us

” while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” 
 
He didn’t wait for us to change or get our act together, he willingly DIED for humankind, when we didn’t even know him. 
 
Jumped infront of a bullet to SAVE us!
 
I don’t know this kind of LOVE, only JESUS!

I was NOT ready

 
I lacked knowledge and understanding of scripture, 
 
I was told to believe that the enemy has bigger fish to catch, and fry. So when I stepped on the battlefield I was constantly getting hurt, and wounded. 
 
I asked the Holy Spirit to help me, and to teach me, and he did.
 

Just as it is important to wear clothes, to protect ourselves from various forms of weather, and elements, so it is important to wear protective gear spiritually. 

 
The Book of Ephesians 6, Paul reveals to us this spiritual armor, and the operations of the enemy at hand. Without the FULL Armor on we are open and vulnerable for the enemy to attack. Let us not be unaware of the devils plots and schemes. ” that no advantage may be gained over us by Satan: for we are not ignorant of his devices.” 2 Corinthians 2:11
 

Growing up I struggled to understand basic concepts of Faith, as well as basic knowledge of scripture. As a result, I rejected and misunderstood my calling, as well as my true identity, as a believer of Christ. 

Not only that, I did not know how to pray, let alone the importance of prayer, so as a result I kept getting hit left, and right until I had no prayer life, or even desire to follow Christ. 

GOD CHANGED MY STORY!

 

Not only I am an Intercessor of God, We founded a WORLDWIDE Prayer Group where people PRAY daily for the world at LARGE! 

My CO-Founder Partner in Ministry, Daniel wrote a BOOK on Prayer, and you can GET IT TODAY TOO!

 

LEAVE YOUR THOUGHTS 💭

Your Story is important to someone else. The details of your testimony are life to someone else. I couldn’t have spoken into strangers life, if I myself did not go through the battles. I can only speak because I know the pain, the hurt, and confusion. I pray God comforts us, and gives us the grace to tell our story, no matter how small the details are.

 

Let’s not hesitate to share our testimonies and help each other walk through the valleys, and reach our destinations together. With a sense of fulfillment, and helping others get there can be a rewarding and satisfying experience, because when we lift each other up, we don’t just reach our destinations, we thrive in them.

I’d love to share your Story on my SITE!

I remember seeing this picture frame on the wall, and I was always curious, 

What is LOVE? 

Dear friends, let us continue to love one another, for love comes from God. Anyone who loves is a child of God and knows God.
1 John 4:7-8
Apostle John boldly declares that God is LOVE, making it clear that God's love isn't just one of God's attributes among many- it's his very essence, it's his very nature.  

Every action he makes, every boundary he creates are intentional and every promise he makes flows from this core reality.

Sacrificial 

But God showed his great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners.
Romans 5:8
This love isn't romantic or sentimental, this love is not fleeing or even conditional, it's 

SACRIFICIAL
 
love that acts ( action)  love that sacrifices ( prefers others) love that pursues even when rejected.

It's a love that sees our imperfections and flaws, but loves us anyway.

I grew up in a cultural, faith based environments, and God's love was not taught this way, I was taught fearful and vengence type of love, my view was distorted, which made me stay away from God and the idea of GOD

BUT WHEN I got to know him, things changed!  

Enduring

 Let’s talk about it.

1.Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good! His faithful love endures forever. 2.Give thanks to the God of gods. His faithful love endures forever. 3.Give thanks to the Lord of lords. His faithful love endures forever.
Psalm 136:1-3
Repeated 3 times, important and true, lasting and valued.

This psalmist, although unknown reminds us that God's love is enduring

- not subject to any flow of emotion or circumstance.

A love that carries us through whatever circumstance or situation we are facing.

When everything seems uncertain, God's love remains, and is steadfast. 

 

HOPE in the midst of CHAOS, FAITH in the midst of FEAR and DOUBT

Intentional

Long ago the LORD said to Israel: “I have loved you, my people, with an everlasting love. With unfailing love I have drawn you to myself.
Jeremiah 31:3
Through Jeremiah God speaks in the most tender words of scripture.

Specific and intentional kind of love for his people.

This love reaches into our lives today in a personal and intentional way, meeting us in a personal and intentional way. ( particular circumstances and cituations that are catered to each individual, and encouragements that go along with it. 

Rooted

 Let’s talk about it.

17. so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, 18.may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, 19.and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.
Ephesians 3:17-19



Pauls prayer for the church at Ephesus acknowledges that truly understanding God's love is a journey, and walk with GOD that requires divine help and instruction.  ( every step of the way! )

We need to be rooted in his WORD, and in his true love to understand it fully. 

Like a tree that grows a root growing deeper over time, our undestanding and comprehension of his love and ways continually deepen and grow, affecting different areas and aspects of our life.

Invitation

HERE I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with that person, and they with me.
Revelations 3:20

Let him in and get to know him, understand his ways,
don't go another day in misunderstanding GOD
and living in fear

Get to know him on a personal level as 

GOD of the universe - YAHWEH

According to BibleHub Study Resources

" Yahweh (יְהוָה) is the primary name for God in the Hebrew Scriptures, often translated as "I AM" which signifies God's eternal existence and sovereignty. 

The name is derived from the Hebrew verb "hayah," 
meaning "to be" or "to exist," emphasizing Yahweh 
as the self-existent and eternal God. 

It is considered the most sacred name of God 
in the Old Testament, appearing over 6,800 times, 
and is deeply connected to God's covenants 
and promises with Israel. " 

RULER - yes he is fire  

but also 

Love - patient, sacrificial, unconditional SAVIOR of the world.
