PLB'S CONFESSIONS 105- LOVE 💟


So much has been said about love💞 yet so much more is required to be said, especially about divine love. There are different kinds of love but the PLB talks only about divine love all the time because that is the only authentic love that never fails and helps us attain our optimum potentials according to the Bible (Ephesians3:19).

That it is divine love doesn't mean it must or can only be between God and man, no, not at all. Divine love simply means- God's kind, type and quality of love. This quality of love is replete in the Bible, especially in the person of Jesus as He related with God and people when He walked the streets of this world physically some 2000 years ago.

 So in essence, when Christ lives in our hearts, His love becomes shed abroad in our hearts (Romans5:5) thereby overthrowing carnal human love and flushing it out of us and as a result, we realise we can only love like God. We begin to see others as God sees them and we begin to love them as God loves them.
It could be your spouse, fiancé/fiancee, parents, colleagues, friends or even strangers, divine love acts just as God would towards them in whatever circumstance they may be in.

PLB enjoins us to study 1Corinthians13 (the entire Chapter) along with the three John epistles (not the synoptic) at least once every month in order to imbibe this love culture. These Scriptures provide a template we can work with and actively practise as we improve on our love level.

One of the ways to grow love in and around us is by talking love all the time (Philemon1:6). You can begin with the words below 👇.

I am a love child of a love God
The love of God is shed abroad in my heart by the Holy Ghost,
therefore, I see others as God sees them
I speak only uplifting, encouraging, and graceful words to others all the time
I am kind, gracious, truthful and benevolent always.
I've got liquid, flowing love and I've got fiery(burning), tough love.
And the love of Christ in me abounds yet more and more every single day in Jesus name! Amen!
Hallelujah!!

Count the Cost

  Luke  14:28 For which of you, intending to build a tower, sitteth not down first, and counteth the cost, whether he have sufficient to finish it? I'd never forget a knowledge I got in my Economics class while I was in my Pre-degree programme in 2013. The lecturer asked "what comes first, consumption or production?", without any hesitation, everyone shouted " Production ". The lecturer looking at us unsatisfied with some subtle grin on his face, asked " why?" , a guy raised his hand confidently, got up and said " because we produce before consumption can take place", the lecturer laughed, and we all for a minute looked bemused with certain indistinct chatters here and there, after some minutes, the lecturer called the young man and asked "so what happens when you produce and there's no one to consume it", and for about some few seconds, there was a seeming silence in the hall, you could hear a pin drop. The loud silence was fol...

Going on to know Him

People easily judge other people when they don't know them. We all may be guilty of this. A Lotta times, we stereotype people by how they look, their dressing and outward mannerisms ever before we hear them speak. I have been shocked many times of how guilty I've been with this. The most recent of such a person I nearly badly stereotyped turned out to be such an incredible person, so different and special in her way and she helped me in many beautiful ways such that we became pretty cool friends in the space of just a few months but this was the same lady I almost thought was way away from my type of friends. We've all made such mistakes so don't look at me that way😶😇. When we were done with the project that brought us together, I offered to take us to an icecream spot- it would probably be the last time we were seeing so it was my way of saying "thanks". There I told her how I had felt about her when I first saw her and she was somewhat unsurprised and sa...
