Love Equals Total Health



Does it pay to love your neighbor as yourself? What else can you gain from walking in love? Many people consider the sacrifices associated with walking in the love of God without considering the good by-products of it. The truth remains that the benefits of obeying the law of love far out-weighs the sacrifices. This post shares about total health, as a by- product of walk of love. 

If you love Me, keep My commandments – John 14:15 (NKJV) 

Therefore you shall keep the commandment, the statutes, and the judgments which I command you today, to observe them. And the Lord will take away from you all sickness, and will afflict you with none of the terrible diseases of Egypt which you have known, but will lay them on all those who hate you – Deuteronomy 7:11, 15 (NKJV)

So you shall serve the Lord your God, and He will bless your bread and your water. And I will take sickness away from the midst of you. No one shall suffer miscarriage or be barren in your land; I will fulfill the number of your days – Exodus 23:25-26 (NKJV)

Every one desires to live a long life free of sickness and disease and the sure way to do that is by walking in love. A little adjustment in your walk of love will give you a life time of peace in your spirit, soul and body.
Jesus says that if you love Him you will obey His commandments. And His commandments include the three greatest commandments: love God with all your being, love your neighbor as yourself and love the brethren. And God said that when we keep the commandments He would take sickness and diseases away from us and fulfill the number of our days: that is long life with total health.

God is a covenant keeping God. When you walk in love, you command good health and longevity to come to you. These are by-products of walking in love. You wouldn’t need to fast and pray for your health. If there is any sign of attack from the enemy, you will just stand on the covenant and remind God and the devil that you walk in the love of God.

Building Up Confidence For The Day Of Judgment



Can you boldly stand before God on the day of judgment? Are you scared of being told “depart from me”, by Jesus? You need not be: there is a perfect way to build up confidence for that day. The best way is by a walk of love. 

In this [union and communion with Him] love is brought to completion and attains perfection with us, that we may have confidence for the day of judgment [with assurance and boldness to face Him], because as He is, so are we in this world – 1 John 4:17 (AMP)

“Strive to enter through the narrow gate, for many, I say to you, will seek to enter and will not be able. But He will say, ‘I tell you I do not know you, where you are from. Depart from Me, all you workers of iniquity.’ – Luke 13: 24, 27 (NKJV)

Many people don’t believe that the day of judgment is coming and that they should prepare for it. The truth is that it shall surely come to pass. If other prophesies of God came to pass, this one will also.

What is the day of judgment?

It is the day that God will judge both the living and the dead, books will be opened and whosoever was not found written in the book of life will be condemned, Revelations 20:12, 15, 2 Timothy 4:1, 1 Peter 4: 5-8.  

So, what kind of life should we live to escape damnation?

 It is a life of love. Love is the beginning and the ending of God’s manual for escape. It meets all the requirements of God and is the fulfilling of the law. The commandments, you shall not commit adultery, you shall not kill, you shall not steal, you shall not covet and any other commandment, are summed up in the single command, you shall love your neighbor as yourself, Romans 13: 8-10.
Walking in love builds up your confidence for the day of judgment. You will be bold to stand before God knowing that you have met God’s requirements for eternal life with Him. You will not be afraid of death because you will ever be ready to face God boldly. Read more...

Benefits of Walking In Love (Part 1)



God has not called people to seek Him in vain. It pays to walk in love in obedience to God’s word. Walking in the love of God not only gives you eternal life in heaven but also great earthly benefits. These benefits are very vital if you are to enjoy victory and success in life.

For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments. And His commandments are not burdensome - 1 John 5:3 (NKJV)

In that I command you today to love the Lord your God, to walk in His ways, and to keep His commandments, His statutes, and His judgments, that you may live and multiply; and the Lord your God will bless you in the land which you go to possess – Deuteronomy 30:16 (NKJV)

Walking in the love of God is to walk in the commands of God, in obedience to His words. God is love and everyone born of God is expected to love, because it is a proof that you know God. God called us to bless us and so as you obey Him you enjoy the benefits that go with obedience to God.

Benefits of walking in love:
1.  Blessings
Now it shall come to pass, if you diligently obey the voice of the Lord your God, to observe carefully all His commandments which I command you today, that the Lord your God will set you high above all nations of the earth. And all these blessings shall come upon you and overtake you, because you obey the voice of the Lord your God – Deuteronomy 28:1-2 (NKJV) 

Walk in love and you will attract God’s blessings to yourself. It is automatic that when you love your neighbour as Jesus loves, showers of blessings are released to you. Therefore, if you want to experience God’s awesome blessings, the best thing to do is to love unconditionally. Read more...
