"A Believer’s Love"

What this episode covers

July 08, 2024   Daily Devotion:   "A Believer’s Love" Proverbs 25:21-22 New International Version   21 If your enemy is hungry, give him food to eat; if he is thirsty, give him water to drink. 22 In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head, and the Lord will reward you. God has much to say about our relationship with our enemies. Believers are not simply called to forgive those who have hurt us, but also to bless them. God established a new standard for relationships which separates godly love from worldly love. A believer’s love must transcend the behavior of the recipient, just as God’s love for us transcended our behavior. Although blessing our enemies may feel impossible, God has empowered believers with the Holy Spirit. Though the flesh may be weak, God’s Spirit is strong and can do the impossible. In what circumstance are you struggling to bless your enemies? God’s standard for love for His people is much higher than the world expects. When He commands what feels impossible, He will surely empower us to carry it out through the work of the Holy Spirit within us
