THE NARROW WAY DAILY DIGEST

DATE:
Thursday, April 1, 2021.

THEME:
The Christian God. A Loving God.

MEMORY VERSE:
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”
John 3:16.

TODAY’S TEXT:
Matthew 5:44-45.
“But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.”

TODAY’S MESSAGE:
There are many instances of conflict, confrontation and wars caused by individuals beliefs, assumptions and faith due to the statements promulgated by the founder of such sects or faith. Statement borne out of rebellion, hatred, retaliation and so on. The good news is that, the Christian God is the creator of all, a loving father and a positive God.
Meanwhile, as you and I know, Love is to regard with affection with or without any rewards attached. While as humans, we love our family and friends because of the pleasure we derived from knowing or being with them, also as a form of gratitude for favour received.
Dear friend, the scripture says in Romans 5:8, *”…God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.”* When we are still sinners, God show us love, because he is perfect and loving God. While other gods will say, _”love your friends alone, hate and despise those who are not your friends, for they are your enemies.”_
In summary, the Christian God, is not a wicked God, he is loving and kind. He gave His all to save the world. And God commands you and I to love and pray for those who persecute us. God’s love is eternal. (Matthew 5:44) Beloved, God is calling you today, to love those who despise you. Shalom!

God bless you.
Till He returns or calls you home, do remain in the power of Jesus love.
*Jesus is coming very soon.*
Be prepared.

DAILY CONFESSION:
I am a child of God, daily I enjoy God’s love. And I will show love to all irrespective of their response to me.

PRAYER POINT:
Father Lord, You are loving God. Help me Lord to love and cherish others as you love. Give me Lord, the grace to always love those who despise me in Jesus name. Amen.

Yours in Christ,
B. J. Folorunsho.
