It was LOVE
that made God give Jesus (John 3:16).
And with
the coming of Jesus came GRACE (John
1:17b).
There is
thus a relationship between LOVE and GRACE. We can put it this way: love is the
motivation (the reason/the basis) for grace. Where love is, grace abounds. How
does this understanding help us? Quickly:
1) When you love God, God makes grace available onto you. Your
measure of love for God determines the
measure of grace you can carry. It is error to fast and pray for grace while
your love for God is zero.
How then
can a man know he loves God? Yeah, I have done a teaching on this before (you
can e-mail me via: drbukola@treasuredhouse.org for this teaching), but here are
two (2) clues:
i)
When you
keep His commandments and live pleasing to Him (John 14:15).
ii)
ii) When you love other
people (1 John 3:18).
2) When love abides in your family/marriage, grace multiplies in
that atmosphere. I call this atmosphere of grace 'Graceosphere'...it overcomes every contrary and evil atmosphere.
Grace chokes satanic manipulations in your family and they die off. And the way
to release grace in your family is to express love. Love is a suitable medium
where grace seeks to thrive. When you love, grace is available; and where grace
abounds, disgrace is absent.
Friend, if
you desire to walk in the fullness of grace for life and destiny I recommend to
you the way of love. In the end, you can be sure (with love and grace) you will
finish well. Be lifted; Live ready; Live blessed.
