True meaning of "Love"

 Matthew  22:39  And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.


 One of the greatest ways to show you love someone is to pray for that person. Love is an affection and also a decision, it's the connection of your heart to the delight of another, however a lot of times, many confuse love with "feelings", when you feel connected to someone, you say you love that person, is that love? Oh no! Love often times is a decision and affection, and often times this affection drives you to desire good for that person, you begin to see that person as yourself, and whatever you'd choose to do for yourself will correspondingly be the same thing you'd choose to do for that person, that's why Jesus said "... Love your neighbour as yourself" . Love is only defined when you desire for someone what you desire for yourself. Without a question of doubt, you pray for  yourself frequently, now it's time to channel prayers for others, the greatest ministry in the Temple of God has always been the Ministry of Intercession. When you study through all the glorious passages of the Old Testament, you see Priests interceding for others, and even much more in the New Testament, the Bible says "we are kings and priests unto the. father" (Rev1:6). Until you pray for someone, you're not qualified to say you love that person. Prayer is the greatest love shown to another. Do have a glorious weekend ahead.

  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 .
