Thanksgiving service for 2022 1st of January
May the peace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with us all Amen
Today's message was anchored by Bro Daniel.
Bro Daniel thought us about the love of God and what it means for someone to have the love of God in him or her.John 3:16 depicts the show of love of our heavenly father, John 3:16A tells us “For God so loved the world, that he gave”. To give means to transfer the possession of something concrete or abstract to somebody. In other words God transferred the possession of his most priced treasure who is Jesus to us as the evidence of his love to us.
When giving is not involved in love it can’t be called love, even in physical relationships between men and women, when giving is not involved one begins to doubt their partner’s love for them.
The highest show of love ever recorded in the history of man is that of the Father towards his creation, He gave up Jesus to come and die for our sins, sins we committed in our consciousness. Still out of his love He had to find a way to redeem us back to himself because we were too important to be lost to the hands of Satan...Hallelujah!
The way to get man back was by “giving ”. He gave Jesus. This shows that if we can’t give up what is most important to us as an act of love, we really haven’t started loving because love doesn’t count cost, it doesn’t withhold the best, it gives up the best.
Learning from the acts of the Father on his ultimate show of love to mankind, we must learn to give in the place of love and not just giving to depict the act, but giving to represent the true meaning of love.
The state of our world needs lots of love to fix the current state of shambles it is in. people need to show more love to one another to assure themselves of a better place to co-exist and also to display the essence of existence in its original state. It doesn’t have to be in material gifts but in little acts of kindness to build up one another. Love quells conflicts, love builds confidence, love reassures, love restores hope, love restores life and ultimately Love can fix our world again Amen i learnt somuch form todays teaching, I understood what love really mean Thank you somuch Bro Daniel
