Anchor Scripture: John 13:34-35 (NKJV)
“A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another. 35 By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.”
If Christ has saved you and I, you would truly know from the bottom of your heart that, He truly loves us. At the mention of His name every knee must bow and every tongue confesses that He is lord over all; even demons attest to that fact. So if you and I are under the umbrella of a name that rebuilds and remolds what has been altered, what can we say more than to proclaim the love of Christ.
Our text today reveals that He – Jesus first showed us love even when we were yet sinners and he died for us in the end. His love never ended on the cross because he promised to send the holy spirit among us and He kept to that promise. If we walk in the love of Christ we will discover how powerful His name is till date. At the mention of His name, our problems melt. He keeps showing Himself strong in our lives to the extent that we are subject to His will.
Jesus loves us to the extent that he gave us power to cast out demons and heal the sick. Can human beings give such powers free to you without repercussion? Of course not. Don’t despair for His love will overwhelm that which troubles you and you will hold your peace. His love is abundant to chase away hatred and evil.
Prayer: Lord, keep loving us, and make us strong to propagate your word on earth. Amen.
