SEEDS OF DESTINY-SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 2025

TOPIC: THE PROOF OF INTIMACY WITH GOD SCRIPTURE: He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love. 1 John 4:8 THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: You cannot be close to the God of love and hate the people around you. It has been established that love is the bedrock of authentic Christianity. To love others is to be like God (1 John 4:8); loving others makes us Christlike. Men who walked with God in Scripture were men who loved God and their fellow men. David was a good example. In 1 Samuel 30:9-20, we read an interesting story about loving nature of David. David and his mighty men were pursuing an enemy troop that had invaded Ziklag, burnt the city, and taken people captive. As David and his men were pursuing the invaders, they came across an Egyptian in the field who had been abandoned by his master. Instead of continuing the pursuit, David stopped, took the Egyptian, nourished and revived him. Can you imagine that! David showed the man love, and eventually, the same man became David’s link to the invaders. The question is, what made David leave the pursuit of the Amalekites to attend to an abandoned and stranded man? It was the love of God in his heart for people. ASSIGNMENT: 1.Draw near to God to absorb His love life. 2.Let the Love of God in your heart overflow into your genuine love for others. PRAYER: Father, I ask that You uproot from my heart any root of malice, hatred and bitterness. I receive the grace to draw closer to you and absorb Your Love nature, Lord, in Jesus’ Name.
