Title: God is love: He first loved us.
“Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. He who does not love does not know God, for God is love. In this the love of God was manifested toward us, that God has sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through Him. In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins.”I John 4:7-10 NKJV.
Point of Reflection:
Notice verse 10: In this is love, not that we loved God but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins.
We are responding to the love of God.
That is why Jesus Christ asked Simon Peter:“So when they had eaten breakfast, Jesus said to Simon Peter, 'Simon, son of Jonah, do you love Me more than these?' He said to Him, 'Yes, Lord; You know that I love You.' He said to him, 'Feed My lambs.'”John 21:15 NKJV.
The question was asked three times until Simon Peter became agitated,
Jesus was asking Peter for a commitment because He Jesus Christ needed Peter.
There are things that Almighty God needed Simon Peter to do for Him.
In exactly the same way, Almighty God is asking for a commitment from you, because there are things He need you to do for Him.
To shine His light where you are, to be a salt or condiment to people where you are, to give a word of hope and encouragement where you are and to play your part in His mission and agenda on planet earth today.
Are you ready to answer the question that Jesus Christ is asking you today?
Do you love me?
When you are ready-
Prayer of commitment:
Heavenly Father in the name of Jesus Christ, I thank you for giving me Jesus Christ as a propitiation for my sin.
I respond today to the love of Jesus Christ.
I acknowledge the risen Jesus Christ as Lord of my life today.
I reject and denounce the enemy satan and his demons upon my life.
I set myself apart and consecrate myself for you.
I ask you Father in the name of Jesus Christ to fill me with your Holy Spirit right now.
I receive the abundant outpouring of your Holy Spirit upon my life.
Lord I love you because you loved me first.
I need you Lord more than you need me.
I hand myself over to you to do your will Lord everyday of my life.
I commit my family and loved ones to you, to serve you the only true God and Jesus Christ whom you have sent.
I commit every child of God across planet earth to you, to serve you alone the only true God and Jesus Christ whom you have sent.
In the name of Jesus Christ I pray. Amen.
