Spreading God's Love Thru Prayer
John 14:15
If ye love me , keep my commandments .
John14:21
He that hath my commandments , and keepeth them, it is he that loveth me : and he that loveth me shall be loved of my father , and I will love him , and will manifest myself to him .
First things first which is how do we keep God,s commandments ? I remember that I use to tell God that I know what his word says but I needed someone to tell me how to live his word . How can we keep Gods commandments if we do not know what they are ? Gods commandments are based on love , the most important relationship that we who are saved should have , which is our relationship with God .The bible also remind us how love comes a multitude of sin .
It should be the love that we have for God which should be the love that we have for God which should give us the strength and the courage to carry out his commandments . We cannot forget this thing called flesh either which always seem to get in the way of walking in love . Now how do we love other people when our flesh is dead against it ? The bible reminds us that it is by the spirit of God that mortify meaning put to death the deeds of our flesh, which brings to a very important statement .
God has also given us principles that we must live by if we can be spirit controlled. It is through principles such as prayer , praise , worship , fellowship and fasting that will give us the strength to carry out God,s will in our lives . The only way that we will operate is these principles is when our relationship with God is important enough that we have become willing to do some things that may be uncomfortable if not foreign to us
Spiritual principles are things that our flesh never wants to do and will do all that it can to keep each one of us from living such a life . Your flesh and mind know that we never truly get into the life of spiritual principles that it is then that we would be spiritually fit to not only carry out God,s will which is Love , but to also not give in to the many attacks that it will continue to bring against us .
So how important is your relationship with God ? Is ther anyone , anything or any position that you may be aware of that you have put before God ? I pray that you will take a closer look at your life right now that you can say without a doubt that your relationship with God is by far the most important one in your life .
