Love is truly a gift from God. He gave us the ability to love each other and Him through His Son. We have all seen the bumper sticker “Jesus Loves You”. But have you ever wondered how we know for sure He loves us? In 1 John 4, John explains Gods love, “In this the love of God was manifested towards us, that God has sent His only begotten Son in to the world, that we might live through Him.” That kind of love is simply indescribable.
Through God’s love we are able to love other people who are lost and dying. When we allow God to live in us, and love through us, His love is made perfect (1 John 4:12). There are so many people in the world who do not know love. Their eyes are still covered with scales. They are searching for fulfillment that they will never find apart from Jesus. It is our job to search them out and lead them to a love that will blow their mind! “Love has been perfected among us in this: that we may have boldness in the Day of Judgment” (1 John 4:17) Do not be afraid to speak out on God’s behalf. Because “there is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear…” (1 John 4:18). Remember God’s love has been perfected in us, fear is gone! Now is the time! Be excited; join in the most epic battle, The Battle for Souls!
