1.The bond of Love.
Dear friend,
_ Strong bond called Love.
Key scripture: Col 3:14
And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in prefect unity.
You must have heard the word, "love alone can't keep married couples together," that you have to be committed to each other if you want to remain together. Well said, but I just think the only problem with that statement is the word Love. What every person who meant well intended on saying is affection alone, not necessarily "Love" in it self. Why? This is because Love itself is a binding force.
*The unity of the Spirit is the perfect unity*
Colossians 3:14 where we read today spoke of the prefect unity through the bond of love. Ephesians 4:3 now spoke about the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace. You must make sure you don't just have peace in whatever you do, but you love it too.
Whatever is bound in the spirit is bound forever, except it is broken in the spirit. We must well understand that the physical is controlled by the spiritual. Spiritual unity is of paramount importance than physical unity. The Bible says whatever God(Love) joins together let no man separate. If God is Love, then Love is truly a binding force. And one way to break what love has joined is to stop loving.
I discovered that the very reason why we have a very high divorce rate is simply because we are only united physically. In fact, we unit physically first (through intercourse) before we arrive at the church to be joined spiritually. *Our spirits are not united in Love but our bodies are already united because we are in love.* But we fail to understand that Peace and Love (not just affection) are keys to spiritual unity, not just the vow we exchange at the altar.
The best way to secure that job, that business, that friendship, that marriage, that relationship, that office...Is in the Spirit, which is the perfect unity. Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit in your home, job, business, marriage etc. *If it must last, it must be united not just physically but spiritually.*
*Let Love lead you*
The Bible always talks about love as an action word. So you can't just be in love, you must act in it, live in it and be lead by it. *Where love leads, there is prefect unity.* Everything you do must be done it love. Be committed in love, be kind, hardworking, patient, affectionate, forgiving, diligent...in Love.
How much do you love your family, husband, wife, friend children, job or business?
If you love them;
you will forgive them,
you will pray for them,
you will show them kindness,
you will be willing to let go so they can have,
you will be compassionate towards them,
you will be humble, gentle and patient with them.
If God is love, don't just say it, show it!
Keep growing
