Love, Faith and Hope
The Easter holiday is over but not what it represents: Love, faith and hope. To have faith, love and hope is to have found God. Problematic relationships are relationships where God is no longer the center of the relationship. Even though they say they love, there is no faith and hope.
The truth is not present because God is not the author of confusion. Whenever there is a lot of confusion or inability to reach permanent agreements in any personal relationship, there is a lie somewhere. Love comes from truth. Where there is no truth, there is no true love. These relationships can be defined as friendships, neighbors, sister, brother, relatives, spouses, co-workers, etc…
1 Corinthians 14:33 KJV “For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints.”
1 John 3:18 KJV “My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth.”
Love each other, even when you do not feel like it. That is what Jesus did. If you find that to be difficult to do, give it to Jesus in prayer. He knows what to do.
Luke 23:34 KJV “Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And they parted his raiment, and cast lots.”
Galatians 5: 13-16 KJV 13For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another. 14For all the law is fulfilled in one word (LOVE), even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. 15But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not consumed one of another. 16This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.
In this world, we must believe in something bigger than ourselves. We must have faith and hope in God. There is hope in Jesus Christ. Jesus in the flesh, as the Son of God, shed his blood that never loses its power in order to protect us from the attacks of any type of enemy and to forgive forgiveness of sins.
His blood makes us righteous because he took our sins on to himself. He has the power to forgive sins by giving us access to his righteousness. In order to stay in God’s grace we must know his will and power so we can walk in his perfect will and timing with the Holy Spirit.
Do you think God will continue to bless his children who consistently have bad behavior or are grudge hearted and unforgiving?
One reason Satan was thrown out of heaven was because he accused God’s children day and night. Are you an accuser? Even secretly?
If you repent your sins but do not forgive or let go of resentment or hard feelings, what good will that do you when your soul leaves this earth and you stand before God?
Proverbs 3:12 KJV “For whom the LORD loveth he corrected; even as a father the son in whom he delighted.”
1 John 1:9 KJV “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.”
Matthew 6:15 KJV “But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.”
Pray so that you do not fall into temptation. Praise God for his faithfulness – bless God with your praise.
