J.M. Biggs: The love of God lives in our hearts

Saints of God, we really have to do better with our walk with Christ.

Now, I know I am not perfect, but some of the behavior that I’ve seen from Christians really makes you wonder.

One major thing that needs to be addressed is love. Some Christians are so mean. They remind you of a light switch. You turn the light on, there is the light of Christ. But when you turn the light off, that represents the darkness of the devil. We should not be like a light switch. The Bible tells us to let our light shine so that others may see.

I don’t care what the situation may be. We are not supposed to be hateful or mean to the brethren. If we get to that point, we need to ask the Lord to deliver our hearts. As long as bitterness is in our hearts, we cannot serve the Lord in the beauty of holiness.

If you are not careful, the devil will slip in to use you for his purpose. I know some people can get on your last nerve. You gotta think. What would Jesus do?

Please listen to me. Do you want to walk in victory? Do you want to live the abundant life? When you pray, don’t you want your prayers answered? Don’t you want to please God and live with him forever?

Now is the time for us to work on ourselves. At a time when the world has become so hateful and mean, we can be the world’s hope. We can show everyone a better way in Christ.

It all starts with us working on ourselves first. Like I have said before, we have become too busy. We shouldn’t have to make time to fast, pray and read the word. As a born-again Christian, those things are our lifelines. Without spending the right time with the Lord, the devil will sift us as wheat. Thus we become hateful and mean.

Everything that we are dealing with that displeases God, we find hope in the word. The foundation of our salvation is love.

The Bible declares: “Beloved, let us love one another for love is of God; and everyone that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love. In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him. Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his son to be the propitiation for sins. Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another. No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us and his love is perfected in us. Hereby no we that we dwell in him, and he in us, because he hath given us of his Spirit.” 1 John 4:7-13.

“And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him. Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world. There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear has torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love. We love him, because he first loved us. If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar; for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen? And this commandment have we from him, that he who loveth God love his brother also.” 1 John 16-21.

I love you, and I am always praying for you. God bless!
