Holy Spirit woke me up recently with a Word that I want to share… I’ve been praying and seeking God as I immerse myself in the writing of my novel. What He woke me up with this morning was so simple and so obvious that one would actually miss it, looking for something “more complex.”
The greatest weapon we have in spiritual warfare is what Jesus already told us. The weapon is LOVE. When you think about it “love” is often the hardest thing to do. The Bible says in Matthew 24:12:
“In the last days the love of many will wax cold.”
I don’t know about you, but I have even felt that “cold waxing” occur inside myself. I have seen it in the division that is occurring even within the body of Christ, and inn families, actually over ALL kinds of relationships.
The Bible says in Matthew 3:25:
“A house divided against itself cannot stand.”
The devil knows this. He knows that the greatest gift bestowed upon us is that of John 3:16:
“God so loved the world that He gave us His only begotten Son. That whosoever believes in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life.”
God showed us the kind of love He wants us to show others… And the demons laugh at every believer or person who chooses to allow their hearts to “wax cold” because it is the total opposite of what God asks us to do. And it often IS the hardest thing to be obedient in.
But here is the thing – if Jesus could forgive and love us as He lay stretched out on that cross for forgiveness of our sins, shouldn’t we try to walk in the commandment of love ourselves??? We can’t allow ol’ slewfoot to have a foothold in our lives by not forgiving or doing the best of our ability to walk in love when everything else inside of us just wants to do the opposite.
Love could be the breakthrough in someone’s life that you have been praying or interceding for… Maybe we need to re-evaluate ourselves… He didn’t say it would be easy – if it wasn’t easy for Him why would we think it would be easy for us???
So, let’s decide to work on this together… I know I’m going to, because honestly – there is NOTHING better than being in the center of His will and I know “I can do ALL things in Christ who strengthens me…” And you can too! Bring it to the Father and see what He’s speaking to your heart…❤️🙏🙏🙏
