Christians have an enemy – - satan, the devil, lucifer, whatever you want to call him. The enemy wants us to think that we have a bankrupt love account, that we cannot give something we do not have. Allow God to give you His love. Receive His love and that will enable you to give love freely … without expectations or stipulations or motivations.
Situations we face in life do not offer hope or promise … only God offers hope and His promises are true! Continue to seek God and do not rely on your own abilities. God will give you the strength and the strategies to overcome any situation the enemy brings against you. GOD IS FAITHFUL! John, Chapter 16, verse 24, “Until now you have asked nothing in My Name. Ask and you WILL receive, that your joy may be full.”
Steps to follow on your love journey:
1. Make a conscious decision to open your heart and feel again (John 15:9).
2. Force yourself to feel God’s love. You will also feel pain; surrender the pain to God because He was made to take your pain.
3. Give yourself to God’s Word. Align your hearts to God’s truth. (Psalm 119: 105 – 119)
Remember your true identity – - YOU ARE LOVED! Allow God to deposit in your love account!
