FAITH CAPSULE:<\/strong> Do you live life for God?<\/p>\n

1 Corinthians 13<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

All man should have faith to love as commanded in the word of God.
\nDo you love others as commanded in the word of God?
\nHave you taken some time out to search your heart if indeed you love God? Do you love God?
\nWhat does it mean to love God?
\n1John 5:3 <\/em><\/strong>identified what it means to love God, \u201cFor this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments.\u201d<\/em><\/strong> To be Keeping God\u2019s commandment is the evidence of loving God.
\nWith sacrificial commitment, obedience to God\u2019s commandment is possible.
\nLoving God is a sacrifice.
\nSacrifice is not cheap but it is giving unto God what is costly.
\nKing David demonstrated what costly sacrifice before God means, 2 Samuel 24:24<\/em><\/strong> records, \u201cNo, but I will surely buy it from you for a price; nor will I offer burnt offerings to the LORD my God with that which costs me nothing.\u201d <\/em><\/strong>David bought the threshing floor and the oxen for fifty shekels of silver.\u201d The buying the threshing floor instead of accepting it free from Araunah, was David’s effort to sacrifice before God.
\nThe sacrifice was meant to deliver the children of Israel from death that was caused by David\u2019s census of Israel, against the command of God. David\u2019s costly of sacrifice before God is a proven mark of love for God.
\nSacrifice to God is worshiping God with love.
\nTo be faithful to God is worshiping God, faithful is about one’s love for God. Jesus\u2019 question about faith is a question about love. He questioned, \u201c\u2026when the Son of Man comes, will He find faith on the earth?\u201d<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0 With faith, there is love, without faith there will be no love.
\nDo you have faith? Do you have a love for others?
\nIs there love between children and parent; between husband and wife; between children; between neighbors between believers?
\nWithout having faith in the word of God, the love commanded by God will not be in place. 1 Corinthians 13:4-8 <\/em><\/strong>records God’s love, \u201cLove suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails\u2026\u201d
\n<\/em><\/strong>Worshiping God, loving God is supposed to be a continual way of life before God.
\nGod did not just ask for love rather He gave us a standard of acceptable love when He stated in Deuteronomy 6:5, \u201cYou shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength.\u201d<\/em><\/strong> To love God means to give Him our all.
\nThrough the pages of the Bible, men, and women that gave self to love according to God’s command were able to live life for the glory of God.
\nAbraham, Joseph, Daniel, and other giants in the hand of God loved God with all their heart, soul and strength. Truly, one with love for God are with faith to love all man.<\/p>\n
