The most excellent way!!!

 John  13:35 "By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another."

The identity of every Christian is love(agape), the God-kind of love, the love that holds no reason for its nature. The above scriptural context shows Jesus telling us how everyone would know we belong to Him.Its quite amazing that Jesus never mentioned by prayer, preaching, or even praise/worship shall all men know we belong to Him, He says "Love". This is just remarkable, it shows the priority God puts on Love, " agape", the love that holds no reason for its nature. In our everyday living, we must act towards others ingenuously, not necessarily having an attachment to it. No matter the duration or length of tongues you speak, if you don't love others ingenuously, there's no sign you're a Christian, no matter how "strong" your preaching is, love cannot be substituted. Love is acted, its shown.It's demonstrated. I love the picture the scriptures give us about the early church, He says they "broke bread from house to house with singleness of heart" (Acts2:46), this is remarkable!!!.This is the Church Christ came to establish, little wonder He says in verse 47, "He added to the church daily such as should be saved." I reckon what makes the body of Christ grow isn't preaching but love. Act love towards others today, take out time to consciously walk in love. How deep is your love?. Do have a lovely day.

Priority information

  Proverbs  16:3 Commit thy works unto the LORD, and thy thoughts shall be established. Most people tell others about their plans first even before they remember to tell God". It's so true, I've found out most times people have opinions, but God never has an opinion, God has direction. People have opinions, God has direction. While speaking with a friend yesterday, she recalled how some people had tried to talk her down/out from doing something, and I felt well, people always have opinions, and like David Ologbonori, a life-coach posited, " Opinions are cheap, they are everywhere, and they can be wrong". While I thought about the fact that sometimes people tell others about their plans before God, I thought to myself "why should a man inform others about what he wants to do even before the waymaker Himself?"😏. This doesn't mean you can't talk to "destiny-helpers", or " dreams investors ", but it has to do with who you give p...

PLB Editorial- Confessions 201

Just a few words... James 3:2-3(Amplified translation) For we all often stumble and fall and offend in many things. And if anyone does not offend in speech [never says the wrong things], he is a fully developed character and a perfect man, able to control his whole body and to curb his entire nature. If we set bits in the horses' mouths to make them obey us, we can turn their whole bodies about. We must never disesteem the power of words, we can steer our lives (our entire course of existence) in the direction we choose with our words. The Scripture above claims that if (and it's possible) we can master our tongue (master words), then we are a perfect and fully developed spiritual entity able to determine the circumstances and results of our being. Mehn! Use words rightly on yourself and others and watch your life beam with incredible supernatural radiance. You can proclaim the words below: I live a supernatural life everyday I am in the class of almighty G...

PLB Foundation: Benue Flood Victims Donations

www.theinnercitymission.ngo/donate This isn't a season of hurricanes floods and natural disasters, nope, it's not. This is a season of love, a season where our affections must be compelled enough to help those in need of our help. A season where devastation meets an overwhelming force of love ❤ and help. This is not the season to stand quiet and watch "others" do the helping. It's a season for us (you and me) to be the saviours in others lives and show them that God loves and cares for them. We preach the gospel of Jesus but no one preached it better than Jesus Himself who went about doing good and helping people get out of their problems and predicaments. The PLB is glad to announce to you that we're now in Partnership with www.theinnercitymission.ngo/donate . So, you can give financially to help people who've lost loved ones, properties, and means of income. www.theinnercitymission.ngo is a world renowned charity organisation under t...
