Put on Love
Decide to put on love. Wear the garment of God’s love wherever you go, not just in church, so that you can represent Jesus well at your location.
Accept the One Whose Faith Is Weak
You’re an ambassador of Christ. You don’t have to compromise God’s standards to win anybody to Jesus, but as to what you have to adjust for people to get saved, that won’t end you up sinning or speaking against God; consider it because of the faith strength of others.
Be Willing to Associate with People of Low Position
Don’t compromise the standards of God’s Word. Be willing to associate with people of low positions to help them rise in the faith, not to lord over them, especially as a leader.
Devote to One Another in Love
In Romans 12:10, it’s written that, as Christians, we must be devoted to one another in love. Translated word “devote” means affection. So we must be affectionate toward one another as an expression of the love of God. If that scripture starts with a “Be,” then devotion unto one another must be done with intentionality. And if it ends with “one another,” then that practice cuts across married couples to include others because “one another” connotes more than two people.
Love Must Be Sincere
If the Bible says, “hate what’s evil,” you’ve got to vehemently show red flags against the enemy’s gimmicks in your relationships with people. Hate unforgiveness. Hate lies. Be truthful and selfless because it doesn’t cost to love as God does; it pays.
Walk Continually in Love
Learn how to forgive people voluntarily with a willing heart. If you do this, many problems with people in your life will be solved, even without prayer.
Do Not Become Conceited
Everybody’s race of faith is different, although purposes are connected. When you see someone moving forward, it doesn’t mean God has left you behind. Follow Jesus, and stop comparing your life with another person.
Protect Destinies by Obeying God
If the wise men had disobeyed God, baby Jesus would have been killed by Herod. The saviour of man wouldn’t have executed His divine mandate — that is, taking away the sin of the world (John 1:29). That also means there would be nothing like salvation, and people would have continued wallowing in sin worse than today. One simple obedience has collaborated to billions of people having access to salvation today and counting.

Pray for God to Lead Your Man
Don’t watch the enemy steal your man from you. It’s not just about meeting a godly partner but keeping him, both before and after marriage. When a man hears from God to do something, he might not say it immediately. Joseph didn’t explain why he still took Mary home as his wife, even though God told him to do it. So dear lady, pray for your man because when he’s under Elohim’s leadership, you also will be safe and enjoy each other.
It’s About the Fulfilment of Prophecy
Joseph was from the tribe of Judah. So if Mary had lost him, we wouldn’t have had any right to call Jesus the “Lion of Judah.” Can you discern your man well, virtuous woman? Don’t treat him like a jerk or a son. Love him, respect him and care deeply about his welfare because men rarely get even a little of this kind of treatment from women except for their mothers and sometimes sisters.
God Protects Godly Relationships from Failing
Joseph was a just man. He was faithful to the laws of God. And because of his integrity, he wanted to divorce Mary quietly after finding out she was pregnant through the Holy Spirit. What this would have meant is that Mary would be stoned to death and also accused of committing adultery since Joseph wasn’t the one who impregnated her. But God protects godly relationships from failing.
Do Everything in Love
Refine your motives for praying, work, education, ministry, business, and everything else you do in your life. Check the primary thing that inspires you for what you’re doing. Is it simply to get money for yourself or to get money to support yourself, your family and the ministry? God weighs our motives (Proverbs 16:2 NIV) for whatever we’re doing, and He’ll judge them too. You can deceive man by hiding your intentions, but not God.
