The Dimensions Of Love
Scripture.
Matthew 22:37 KJV
"Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind"
Message:
There are major dimensions of love, the love dimension is superior and different from types of love. I will just mention the major and key dimensions of love. These are:
i. The love that God has for us.
This is called Agape in the original Greek language which the Bible was written. It is an unconditional love, you don't need to do anything to earn it. No matter your past mistakes, background or history, God's love is a fixed deposit. He demonstrated it to us on the cross of calvary.
ii. The love that we love God back.
This is the major problem area for believers. Anyone who is not a child of God does not even have the capacity to express this. God expects us to reciprocate His love, He wants to be loved, He has feelings and emotions too. Any Christian who cannot love God the way they should may never see the fullness of the things God has for them on earth.
iii. The love that we love ourselves.
Until we accept the love modelled to us on calvary and love God back, we will never be able to love ourselves. The proof that you love yourself is loving God back the way He wants to be loved. People who dont love God will never have the capacity to love themselves the way they should.
iv. The love that we love others.
It is impossible to love others if you don't love yourself. The scriptures tells us to love our neighbours as ourself, no one can have the capacity to love others when they don't even love themselves. It is impossible to love God and love yourself and not love others. The love of God points us back and teaches us to love ourselves and others.
Prayers and Counsel
Counsel.
(1) Anyone who is not a child of God does not even have the capacity to express love back to God. It us the spirit of God that comes into us at salvation that helps us to crave back to God in love
(2) People who dont love God will never have the capacity to love themselves the way they should.
Prayer.
Father help me to express myself continually as a love child of a loving God, in Jesus name.
