1 Chronicles 7 & 8, Romans 13, Psalm 119: 9-16
Romans 13: 8 (ESV)
“Owe no one anything, except to love each other, for the one
who loves another has fulfilled the law.”
In verse 8 from Romans 13, Paul says that we need to lead a
life free from financial and moral obligations or debt, which could affect our ability
to serve Father-God and others. The only debt or obligation Father-God approves
of is the obligation to continually love other people. Loving others is a
fulfillment of the law and a sign of our obedience to Father-God. Loving others
is not just thinking about love, but in active and practical actions. We must
always be kind, always forgiving, and always in service to others. Our love for
other people shows other people how the power of Father-God’s love has
transformed us and is reflected in our everyday actions. When I think about loving
other people, judgement comes up for me because I cannot help but think about the
actions of other people. But then I remember that it is not for me to judge
them because that is not my job. Judgement belongs to the Lord, and not to me.
All Father-God has asked me to do is reflect his love for me in my actions to
other people. This doesn’t mean that I approve of the wrong actions of other
people, because often I don’t. What it does mean is that my actions reflect God’s
love for all people, and I treat people with kindness no matter what they’ve
done.
If you enjoyed reading my thoughts on this Bible verse and
you want to always show love to others because of your faith in Jesus Christ,
please pray this prayer out loud:
Heavenly Father, I want to give you my Life. Forgive me of
all of my sins. Wash me in your blood. I believe in my heart You raised Jesus
from the dead. I confess with my mouth Jesus is my Lord and Savior. Right now,
I receive forgiveness by the blood of Jesus. I am saved, I am forgiven, I am
clean, in Jesus’ name, Amen.
If you prayed that prayer, welcome to the family of
Father-God! Do yourself a favor and find and join a Holy Spirit filled, full
Gospel, Bible-based church where you can hear the words of Father-God preached
and experience signs, wonders, and miracles in your life.
