TODAY'S FOOD FOR THE SOUL 1 John 4:7-21
TODAY'S RHEMA 1 John 4:16 "And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them. "
Jim was diagnosed with deadly cancer and when a prayer team came to support him in prayer, one of them asked Jim this question, "Have you prepared yourself for eternal life after death?". He got angry and said "You, Christians only care about my life after death. If your God is a great God, why doesn't He help people overcoming real-life problems?" He bitterly grieved about having no money left since he had used all his savings and insurance money to cover his treatment. The company where he worked didn't help him either. He would leave his wife penniless and his daughter would not be able to continue her study. After telling the prayer team about his problems, he asked them to leave his home.
Two days later, the prayer team came back to Jim's house. They apologized and said "We found a solution for your problem. We knew a broker who wants to help you to sell your house and giving all the commission fee to your wife. You can use the money from selling the house for your daughter's college fee. Also, the owner of the apartment across the street has offered a free unit of the apartment and on top of that, he offered your wife to take care of the apartment complex with a monthly salary." Jim moved to tears as he heard the good news.
There is none whom never experience the help of from the Lord. Like a seed that has been sown, love will grow and bear fruit in us. The more we respond to the love of God, the more fruit will be produced in us. We ought to love one and another, do what God has commanded us to. Just believe, the more we sow love to others, the more people will see the great love of God in our lives, and that the very thing that will draw them to come to know Jesus through our lives.
