The Father’s Greatest Commandment (I)
This is the first and greatest commandment. (Matthew 22:38, KJV)
Bible Reading: Matthew 22:36-38
The Father’s love is magnificent and unfathomable. Love is best when received and reciprocated. God’s love requests our love in return. From our Bible reading, when asked what is the greatest commandment in the law, Jesus replied “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind” (Matthew 22:37, AMP). The command involves loving God with ALL not some part of our heart, soul and mind. When God says ALL, He truly means it. Love God with everything. Let your heart be centred on Him, let your soul be under His absolute lordship and let your mind be fixed on Him. The Father’s love is consistent and He asks us to love Him. Dear friends, the Father requests your love and the question is will you obey his command?
Daily Confession: Thank God for your love. Lord help me to love you with all my heart, all my soul and all my mind.
Intercessory prayer: Prayer for God’s intervention in the following nations: Nigeria, Turkey, Syria, and New Zealand.
Hymn: O God of love, O King of peace,
Make wars throughout the world to cease;
The wrath of sinful man restrain;
Give peace, O God, give peace again!
