Whoever Does Not Love Does Not Know God
Dear believer, love is the core of your spiritual makeup. So, if you don’t walk in your God-ordained identity, then you are signing up to live a hypocritical life, which shouldn’t be said of you.

Never let the devil talk you out of God’s love for you. Do not let Him lie to you that God has given up on you. He is Your Father. He won’t cast you out. He first loved you. He calls you by name.
In our families, siblings love one another. Right? Why? Because they are from the same parents. In the same way, you can’t say you love God but hate any of His children, no matter how the person behaves.
God’s love has no loopholes. So don’t demonstrate it to some sect of people and leave others. Let me tell you something. Many people tagged as evil are hurting people who just need help. Love God and love people too.
Lack of service, prioritising family voices over God, and not allowing the dead to bury their dead are roadblocks to following Jesus that we create ourselves. Trusting and putting Jesus first as a leader is the way to go on our journey with Him.
If the Bible is telling you to walk not in the counsel of the ungodly, then there should be another influence upon your life, higher and godly enough to erase any lousy talk from surrounding ungodly people. That’s the Word!
Jesus said in Matthew 5:42 that we are not supposed to hold back from giving to those who ask us for help. Secondly, we should also lend to those who want to borrow from us. That means lending is not evil in Christ, as well as borrowing. But with the rise of mistrust, the question is, should believers keep lending to untrustworthy people? That’s a real question to consider.
Proverbs 25:15 says that enough patience can persuade a ruler, and a gentle tongue can break a bone. That means no matter how high a person’s position is in life, you only need patience and gentle words to keep persisting for the person to grant you the favour you desire him to do.
There is no smoke without fire. That implies there is a reason behind any happening in life. Things don’t just happen. So instead of joining others to say bad things about others, wait for patience to calm quarrels.
If you want to earn the trust of people you work for or in a specific relationship with, don’t make lying your hallmark. Don’t ever lie about something you did for the sake of escaping punishment. Truth sets free; lies soil your integrity.
We must be careful about the advice we give others when they come to us for help. You might be breaching God’s rule when you tell people, especially couples, to separate. There is a solution to every problem. So make up your mind never to serve as a reference point to make someone disobey God’s principles.
If you have anybody in your life constantly giving you problems and preventing you from enjoying God’s peace, it’s time to separate from the person. Maybe that person is a childhood friend whom you cherish so much. But hey, having peace is so worth it.
