I have a challenge for you. I am going to read the book of Philippians everyday from now until Christmas. And I want to challenge you to do the same. It's one of my favorite, if not my favorite, books of the Bible. It's only 4 short chapters but it is power packed!
I want you to read Philippians 1:9 in the Amplified version:
(the Amplified version is very accurate and really goes into the meaning of the original Greek and Hebrew words)
And this I pray that your love may abound more and more and extend to it's fullest development in knowledge and all keen insight [that your love may display itself in greater depth of acquaintance and more comprehensive discernment], so that you may surely learn to sense what is vital, and approve and prize what is excellent and of real value [recognizing the highest and the best, and distinguishing the moral differences], and that you may be untainted and pure and unerring and blameless [so that with hearts sincere and certain and unsullied, you may approach] the day of Christ [not stumbling nor causing others to stumble].
The more I study "love" the more amazed I am at how love is the key element in our Christian walk. God is love, so when we love we share Him. Here it says that we must grow more and more in our love walk in order to have knowledge and insight about what things are most vital and of highest value in life!
I really believe this friends, if we focus our life on loving God and loving others, we can't go wrong. We need to focus more on loving God than on overcoming sin or problems in our life. Because the more we love God the more everything else, including overcoming sin and our problems, will fall into place. I hope you can get this revelation today!
"Seek ye FIRST the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and ALL these things will be added unto you!"
I LOVE you!
