Love Is: Patient, Kind, And Not Jealous!

The Holy Spirit placed the love of God in our spirit when we were born again. Every believer has the capacity to love with this agape love. But if the mind is not renewed as to the characteristics of this new kind of love, then it will not manifest as it should in the life of the believer. So if we’re going to live a lifestyle dominated by agape we must constantly acquaint our minds with what has been placed in our spirits by the Holy Spirit. Then there will be cooperation be

Are You Passing The Faith Test?

Until the time that His word came to pass, the word of the Lord tested him (Psalm 105:19). The above scripture refers to Joseph having a dream of leading his family and it taking thirteen years for the dream to happen. The time between God speaking and God’s word to Joseph through the dream being fulfilled was a great time of testing. His brothers sold Joseph into slavery.

For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways, and My thoughts than your thoughts. “For as the rain comes down, and the snow from heaven, and do not return there, but water the earth, and make it bring forth and bud, That it may give seed to the sower and bread to the eater, so shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; it shall not return to Me void, but it shall accomplish what I please, and it shall prosper in the thing for which I

Faith Just Won’t Quit!

Therefore do not cast away your confidence, which has great reward. For you have need of endurance, so that after you have done the will of God, you may receive the promise (Hebrews 10:35-36). Now the just shall live by faith; But if anyone draws back, My soul has no pleasure in him (Hebrews 10:38). Endurance or patience is an important ingredient of faith. It’s faith and patience that inherits the promises. The Greek word for endurance is hupomeno and it means to remain when

Love is Patient, Kind, and Does Not Envy!

Love 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…(1 Corinthians 13: 4-8). The Holy Spirit placed the love of God in our spirit when we were born again. Every believer has the capacity to love with thi
