WHAT A DAY OUT – WHAT A NIGHT OUT

February 15, 2024 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

WHAT A DAY OUT – WHAT A NIGHT OUT: SHARING FAITH – SHARING LOVE – SHARING FELLOWSHIP!

The SAINT VALENTINE’S LOVE and LOVER’S DAY must have come and gone, it’s worth in having a leisure date with the one you love and care about as spouse, friend, family member and such like. And a time out from the usual alone only, now to share the goodness and good-heartedness of yours in love, WORTH the living.

Hence I beg you if you are in high mountain, please COME DOWN from your SPIRITUAL MOUNT and be as Jesus for a moment. Jesus took it up to have LEISURE Date time out with His Disciples/Apostles in humanity. It serves great PURPOSE in Kingdom causes of God as we keep the enemy and cohorts at bay.

“And the apostles GATHERED THEMSELVES TOGETHER unto Jesus, and told him all things, both what they had done, and what they had taught. 31 And he said unto them, COME YE YOURSELVES APART INTO A DESERT PLACE, AND REST A WHILE: for there were many coming and going, AND THEY HAD NO LEISURE SO MUCH AS TO EAT. 32 And they departed into a DESERT (SECLUDED) PLACE by ship PRIVATELY” Mark 6:30-32.

I know the graciousnesss and gracefulness of having a LEISURE Date with my BELOVED once in a while just as of today. It’s an important factor to enhance and bond one’s personal and relationship matters.

Give it a go at least once a Month as couples, it can change your perception and horizon, for onward and upward trajectory of life, in all aspects of relationship, in everyway.

I PRAY you keep reigniting, refreshing, blossoming and rejuvenating your relationship in order to keep it alive and relevant in your given PURPOSE with God as a couple and in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“My BELOVED has gone to his garden, To the beds of spices, To feed his flock in the gardens, And to gather lilies. 3 I AM MY BELOVED’S, AND MY BELOVED IS MINE. He feeds his flock among the lilies. 4 O MY LOVE, you are as BEAUTIFUL as Tirzah, LOVELY as Jerusalem, AWESOME (MAJESTIC) as an army with banners!” Songs Of Solomon 6:2-4 NKJV (Emphasis Mine).

“HUSBANDS, LOVE YOUR WIVES, EVEN AS CHRIST ALSO LOVED THE CHURCH, and gave himself for it . . . 28 SO OUGHT MEN TO LOVE THEIR WIVES as their own bodies. HE THAT LOVETH HIS WIFE LOVETH HIMSELF . . . 33 Nevertheless let every one of you in particular SO LOVE HIS WIFE EVEN AS HIMSELF; and the wife see that she reverence her husband” Ephesians 5:21-33.

“Like an APPLE tree among the trees of the woods, So is MY BELOVED among the sons.I sat down in his SHADE with great delight, And his FRUIT was sweet to my taste. 4 HE BROUGHT ME TO THE BANQUETING HOUSE, AND HIS BANNER OVER ME WAS LOVE. 5 SUSTAIN me with cakes of raisins, REFRESH me with apples, FOR I AM LOVESICK” Songs of Solomon 2 3:-5.

REMEMBERING THE MEMORABLE – “SAINT VALENTINE

February 14, 2024 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

REMEMBERING THE MEMORABLE – “SAINT VALENTINE”: WISHING YOU A HAPPY “SAINT VALENTINE’S” – LOVE AND LOVERS DAY!

“This is my commandment, That ye LOVE one another, as I have LOVED you. 13 GREATER LOVE HATH NO MAN THAN THIS, THAT A MAN LAY DOWN HIS LIFE FOR HIS FRIENDS. 14 Ye are my friends, if ye DO whatsoever I command you” John 15:12-14.

LOVE IS AT A COST. God gave up His Son [Jesus Christ] for it. And Jesus Christ gave up His life for it. And the Priest – SAINT VALENTINE – gave up His life for it, hence there’s SAINT VALENTINE’S DAY today.

WHAT ARE YOU GIVING UP, FOR YOU TO ENSURE AND ASSURE THAT ‘LOVE’ THRIVES AND LIVES IN YOU AND THROUGH TODAY?

The Priest – SAINT VALENTINE, paid with his life to give love and lovers an opportunity to ensure their assured love to each other. And on a day and date as this day and date, he died in honour for his good and goodness to others – indicating that LOVE IS AT A COST. It’s not cheap and must not be cheapen by any – and only those who knows and understands the worth can truly appreciate the cause of the Priest – SAINT VALENTINE!

THEREFORE I SAY TO YOU:

* Let THERE be LOVE.

* Let’s CELEBRATE LOVE.

* Let LOVE be Celebrated.

* Let LOVE thrive and be kept alive and ignited always.

* Let LOVE always rule and reign supreme.

* Let LOVE be memorable within you at a cost.

FOR LOVE IS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL GIFT, GIVEN TO US TO SHARE IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD. AMEN.

May You KNOW and UNDERSTAND the essence of Saint VALENTINE’S Day in Love; and cautiously, graciously and gracefully Enjoy your Day and moment in LOVE accordingly and irrespectively.

However, it’s more gracious that you KNOW the LOVE Of Christ which SURPASSES, TRANSCENDS and SUPERCEDES the SENSE Knowledge as you mark and celebrate the Saint VALENTINE’S Day.

“. . . 17 that Christ may DWELL in your HEARTS by FAITH; that ye, being ROOTED and GROUNDED in LOVE, 18 may be able to comprehend with all saints what is the BREADTH, and LENGTH, and DEPTH, and HEIGHT; 19 And to KNOW the LOVE of Christ, which passeth (TRANSCENDS, SURPASSED) knowledge (FIVE SENSE), that ye might be FILLED with all the FULNESS of God. . .” Ephesians 3:14-21/Emphasis Mine.

THE GENUINE LOVE IS PURE AND REFRESHING

February 14, 2024 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

THE GENUINE LOVE IS PURE AND REFRESHING: IT’S CALLED – AGAPE LOVE!

LOVE is a mystery but not mystical. For God is Love. God is a mystery and not mystical. His LOVE is pure, practicable, liveable, approachable and loveable, for it’s EMPOWERED by the Holy Spirit that’s GIVEN to us. [Romans 5:5]. And He’s a mystery to only them and those who don’t know Him in His Love. For He is LOVE and His LOVE is PURE, TRUE and REFRESHING.

And God’s LOVE is Beautiful, Unquestionable, Unspeakable, Incomprehensible and Indescribable; and it is a gracious and graceful GIFT, that is shared in our hearts by the Holy Spirit; and it’s GIVEN to us to SHARE alike in Christ Jesus stead. God’s LOVE is genuine and involves laying down ones life for the other to keep it alive and refreshing.

When it comes to God’s LOVE in relationship and maritally, especially for the man, it’s gracious and graceful to know that MARRYING THE WOMAN YOU LOVE IS GOOD. BUT LOVING THE WOMAN YOU MARRIED, NOW, THAT IS SPECIAL AND AWESOME.

“There be three things which are too wonderful for me, yea, FOUR WHICH I KNOW NOT: 19 the way of an eagle in the air; the way of a serpent upon a rock; the way of a ship in the midst of the sea; and THE WAY OF A MAN WITH A WOMAN” Proverbs 30:18-19.

“Set me as a seal upon thine heart, as a seal upon thine arm: for LOVE IS STRONG AS DEATH; jealousy is cruel as the grave: the coals thereof are coals of fire, which hath a most vehement flame. 7 MANY WATERS CANNOT QUENCH LOVE, neither can the floods drown it: if a man would give all the substance of his house for love, it would utterly be contemned” Songs of Solomon 8:6-7.

AND SOMEONE SAID:

“A HAPPY MAN MARRIES THE WOMAN HE LOVES. BUT A HAPPIER MAN LOVES THE WOMAN HE MARRIES” – Isaac Kubvoruno

And I Say this to you unreservedly:

LOVE – Is the BEAUTIFUL GIFT, giving to us to SHARE in grace. It’s about LOVING GOD FIRST, AND LOVING OTHERS IN HIS LOVE. More so, you need to keep on keeping on, dating again and again and again . . . the one you genuinely and truly LOVE to make your love refreshing, liveable and practicable – for LOVE is the most EXCELLENT WAY, the gracious and graceful act in DOING LIFE TOGETHER in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

The greater love of God, is the only genuine LOVE. It Is PURE and REFRESHING. It is AGAPE LOVE. It transcends and surpasses human SENSE and all comprehension.

Welcome I say to God’s kind of LOVE – the AGAPE LOVE, which is EMPOWERED by the Holy Spirit of Love, through God’s WORD, in our human spirit.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you. 13 GREATER LOVE hath no man than this, that a man LAY DOWN his life for his friends. 14 Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I COMMAND you” John 15:12-14.

“And hope maketh not ashamed; because the LOVE of God is SHED abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is GIVEN unto us. 6 For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. 7 For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. 8 But God COMMENDETH HIS LOVE toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us” Romans 5:5-8.

DELIVERING THIS GENERATION

February 13, 2024 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

DELIVERING THIS GENERATION: THE MANIFESTATION OF SONSHIP SPIRIT!

“Shall the PREY be taken from the MIGHTY, or THE LAWFUL CAPTIVE DELIVERED? 25 But thus saith the Lord, Even the CAPTIVES of the MIGHTY shall be TAKEN AWAY, and the PREY of the terrible shall be DELIVERED: for I will CONTEND with him that CONTENDETH with thee, and I will SAVE thy children . . .” Isaiah 49:24-26.

Redemption is a done complete work in Christ Jesus; so also is our DELIVERANCE and transformation [translation, transfiguration, predestination and conveyance] from darkness to light. And it’s of us, the Believer’s in Christ Jesus, in manifesting and revealing the fullness of the nature of the Sonship spirit of God in us by the given Holy Spirit of promise, then shall this generation be DELIVERED (RESCUED, EMANCIPATED] from the evil and corruption that’s in the world as written:

“Giving thanks to the Father who has QUALIFIED us to be PARTAKERS of the INHERITANCE of the saints in the light. 13 He has DELIVERED us from the POWER of DARKNESS and CONVEYED us into the kingdom of the Son of His love, 14 in whom we have REDEMPTION [b]through His blood, the FORGIVENESS of sins” Colossians 1:12-14/NKJV.

“Grace to you and PEACE [inner calm and spiritual well-being] from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ, 4 who GAVE Himself [as a sacrifice to atone] for our sins [to SAVE and SANCTIFY us] so that He might RESCUE [DELIVER] us from THIS PRESENT EVIL AGE [WORLD], in accordance with the WILL and PURPOSE and PLAN of our God and Father— 5 to Him be [ASCRIBED all] the glory through the AGES of the AGES. Amen” Galatians 1:3-5/Amplified.

God’s earnest intent is to see this generation DELIVERED and EMANCIPATED from the clutches of darkness as we advance the Kingdom cause of God, and keep the enemy and cohorts at bay in every measures. However, the question requiring an answer today and now, is if you are willing and ready to arise and be resolved in pursuit to see a generational deliverance in your time?

“. . . 6 And because ye ARE sons, God hath SENT forth the Spirit of His Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father . . .” Galatians 4:1-7.

“. . . 19 For the earnest EXPECTATION of the CREATION waits for the MANIFESTATION [REVEALING] of the sons of God . . .” Romans 8:9-21.

Therefore, let’s make it all good in goodness, that our manifestation and revealing do happen for the good of the kingdom and humanity in such a time as this generation. You can kick start today within your circus of friends, and community. And together with God in Christ Jesus stead, your generation shall come to know God as I do ensure mine too. And for all to come to the stand in grace wherein they WORSHIP our God in Christ Jesus WORTHILY and correspondingly SERVE Him in Christ Jesus ACCEPTABLY. Amen.

“Who hath DELIVERED us from the POWER of DARKNESS, and hath TRANSLATED us into the KINGDOM of his dear Son: 14 in whom we have REDEMPTION through his BLOOD, even the FORGIVENESS of sins” Colossians 1:13-14.

“But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his. 10 And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness. 11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead DWELL IN you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you. 12 Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh. 13 For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live. 14 FOR AS MANY AS ARE LED BY THE SPIRIT OF GOD, THEY ARE THE SONS OF GOD. 15 For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have RECEIVED the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father. 16 The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God: 17 and if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together. 18 For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. 19 FOR THE EARNEST EXPECTATION OF THE CREATURE WAITETH FOR THE MANIFESTATION OF THE SONS OF GOD. 20 For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope, 21 because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God” Romans 8:9-21.

“For the EYES of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to show himself STRONG in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him . . .” 2 Chronicles 16:9.

“Now I say that the heir, as long as he is a child, does not differ at all from a slave, though he is master of all, 2 but is under GUARDIANS and STEWARDS until the time appointed by the father. 3 Even so we, when we were children, were in bondage under the elements of the world. 4 But when the FULLNESS of the time had come, God sent forth His Son, BORN of a woman, born under the law, 5 to REDEEM those who were under the law, that we might RECEIVE the adoption as sons. 6 And because you are sons, God has SENT FORTH the Spirit of His Son into your hearts, crying out, “Abba, Father!” 7 Therefore you are no longer a slave but a son, and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ” Galatians 4:1-7/NKJV.

“The Lord said to my Lord, sit at My right hand, till I make Your ENEMIES Your footstool.” 2 The Lord shall send the ROD OF YOUR STRENGTH out of Zion. RULE IN THE MIDST OF YOUR ENEMIES! 3 Your PEOPLE shall be VOLUNTEERS in the day of Your POWER; in the beauties of holiness, from the womb of the morning, you have the dew of Your youth” Psalms 110:1-3/NKJV.

LOVING GOD IN HIS LOVE TERMS

February 13, 2024 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

LOVING GOD IN HIS LOVE TERMS: FOR GOD’S LOVE – IS THE ‘LOVE’ OF THE SIXTH SENSE – CALLED AGAPE!

“. . . 8 The one who does not love has not become acquainted with God [does not and never did know Him], FOR GOD IS LOVE. [He is the originator of love, and it is an enduring attribute of His nature.] . . . 16 We have come to know [by personal observation and experience], and have believed [with deep, consistent faith] the love which God has for us. GOD IS LOVE, and the one who ABIDES in LOVE ABIDES in God, and God ABIDES continually in him . . .” 1 John 4:8, 16 [7-21]/Amplified.

There’s the LOVE of God which operates and lubricates by FAITH in God’s Word – it’s called AGAPE LOVE [Galatians 5:6; 1 Corinthians 13:1-13]. This love of God is pure, spiritual, likeable, loveable, liveable and practicable; and this love of God is inspired, revealed and empowered by the indwelling Holy Spirit. And this love is sustained and maintained by the Holy Spirit, hence it knows no stress, weakness, tiredness and weariness; and it doesn’t fades and weathered out with times with changes, and it’s not limited or conditioned by any ‘nesses; and there’s NO ROOM for selfishness, wickedness, manipulation, controlling, maliciousness and greediness. It’s the love that transcends, surpasses and supercedes all human reasoning – meaning, there’s no room for prejudice, sentiments and dissimulation.

“That Christ may DWELL in your HEARTS [SPIRIT-BEING] by faith; that ye, being ROOTED and GROUNDED in LOVE, 18 may be able to comprehend with all saints what is the BREADTH, and LENGTH, and DEPTH, and HEIGHT; 19 And to KNOW THE LOVE OF CHRIST, which PASSETH (TRANSCENDS, SUPERCEDES, SURPASSES) KNOWLEDGE (Human Senses), that ye might be FILLED with ALL the FULNESS of God” Ephesians 3:17-19/Emphasis Mine.

HEREIN ARE FEW THINGS TO NOTE OF – GOD’S LOVE:

** It’s the LOVE that embodiment are HOPE and FAITH for functionality.

** It’s LOVE that’s built on principles, and it’s intentional, unconditional and boundless.

** It’s the LOVE that transcends, supercedes and surpasses the natural or material worlds love of the Five Senses that’s of – smell, see, taste, hear feel/touch.

** It’s the LOVE that’s of a more excellent way to communicate to God and man in God’s terms in Christ Jesus stead.

** It’s the LOVE that enriches all things and transcends – culture, religion, colour, tradition, generation, gender and dispensation. This is simply because this LOVE is of God, is God and God personified.

** It’s the LOVE that answers to every quest of man and it’s yet not fathom by the five senses or limited by it in every measures of doing life and living godly by God, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

** It’s the LOVE that treats others with respect and dignity; and it takes no advantage on people nor of people; it tends to give and serve than to demand and to receive the attention of love and or to be love.

I therefore, sincerely and honestly recommends this LOVE of God to for your good, goodness and wellbeing. For this LOVE is pure, spiritual, likeable, loveable, liveable and practicable; and it’s the LOVE that’s inspired, revealed and empowered by the indwelling Holy Spirit. It’s the more excellent way to do life and live godly with God in Christ Jesus stead [1 Corinthians 12:31].

“But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, THE THINGS which God hath PREPARED for them that LOVE him” 1 Corinthians 2:9.

“And hope maketh not ashamed; because the LOVE of God is SHED ABROAD IN OUR HEARTS by the Holy Ghost which is GIVEN unto us. 6 For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. 7 For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. 8 But God COMMENDETH HIS LOVE TOWARD US, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us” Romans 5:5-8.

DEFINING LOVE IN GOD’S TERMS

February 13, 2024 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

DEFINING LOVE IN GOD’S TERMS: GOD IS LOVE AND LOVE PERSONIFIED!

Defining Love? Which Love? What kind of Love? How do you define genuine love? In your terms or God’s terms? The LOVE that’s WORTH pondering by you – is it the LOVE made and built of SENSE KNOWLEDGE or The Love born of REVELATION KNOWLEDGE?

“Beloved, let us [unselfishly] LOVE and seek the best for one another, for LOVE is from God; and everyone who LOVES [others] is born of God and knows God [through personal experience]. 8 The one who DOES NOT LOVE has not become acquainted with God [does not and never did KNOW Him], FOR GOD IS LOVE. [He is the ORIGINATOR of LOVE, and it is an enduring attribute of His NATURE.] . . . 16 We have come to KNOW [by personal observation and experience], and have believed [with deep, consistent faith] the LOVE which God has for us. GOD IS LOVE, and the one who ABIDES in LOVE ABIDES in God, and God ABIDES continually in him” 1 John 4:7-8, 16.

It’s good to know what’s LOVE and what people means when they talk of LOVE and or matters of love. And defining LOVE in God’s terms is very vital to do life and godly living with God. And the knowing and understanding that GOD IS LOVE and LOVE PERSONIFIED, makes all the difference in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

HEREIN IS MY TAKE IN DEFINING LOVE:

** THE SENSE KNOWLEDGE LOVE:

This LOVE response to our senses – which is made of these FIVE senses: FEEL (Touch), SMELL, TASTE, SEE and HEAR. This is the realm where the VALENTINE love operates especially. This is where the natural instincts of carnality and humanity operates. It’s of the world, hence defines in terms, and it’s limited in every sense to meet the human quest. I wonder why many if not multitudes should wait for FEBRUARY 14 to genuinely express love to someone they care about. Is like waiting until Christmas to express goodness to those you care about. There’s nothing wrong in the common sense LOVE in essence in humanity if guided and guarded by God’s kind of love; only that, this sensual LOVE is body-ruled, full of bundles of selfishness, more importantly, man-made – hence limited in all ramifications.

** THE REVELATION KNOWLEDGE LOVE:

This LOVE is of God. It is spiritual, meaning, it’s inspiring, revealing and empowering. It sensitises the sense knowledge towards your natural and spiritual causes, and as such it expresses genuinely to all and more importantly to those you care about in day to day act of doing life and living godly. It does not wait for special occasions like VALENTINE or CHRISTMAS or BIRTHDAY and such like to express great heart-felt goodness. It’s boundless, intentional and reachable and available and applicable in circumstances toward God and mankind.

Therefore think before you go in debt for a one day or part-time kind of LOVE act that may end up in CARNALITY and at CROSS-FIRE afterwards that will hurt and hunt you for the rest of your life.

Know full well today that – GOD IS LOVE. In other words, the DEFINITION of LOVE is – God. And God is LOVE PERSONIFIED. And you can only DEFINE LOVE in God. And God’s LOVE which is in Christ Jesus, transcends, surpasses and supercedes human sense knowledge in every dimensions. And until one knows and understands it, the struggles for genuine love will keep showing up; and the unnecessary asking of all sorts of questioning about LOVE and matters of LOVE will keep coming over and over again – because ignorance of any context breeds abuse – and to abuse is to be abnormal in application and usage.

And as a Believer in Christ Jesus, are you in the LOVE built on the SENSE KNOWLEDGE or in the love built on the REVELATION KNOWLEDGE. For the revelation knowledge LOVE of God is pure, spiritual, likeable, loveable, liveable and practicable; and it’s inspired, revealed and empowered by the indwelling Holy Spirit in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“Beloved, let us love one another: FOR LOVE IS OF GOD; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. 8 He that loveth not knoweth not God; for GOD IS LOVE. 9 In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him. 10 Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins. 11 Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another. 12 No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, AND HIS LOVE IS PERFECTED IN US. 13 Hereby know we that we dwell in him, and he in us, BECAUSE HE HATH GIVEN US OF HIS SPIRIT. 14 And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world. 15 Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God. 16 And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us.

He that feareth is not made perfect in love. 19 We love him, because he first loved us. 20 If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen? 21 And this commandment have we from him, That he who loveth God love his brother also” 1 John 4:7-21.

THE DIVINE LOVE OF GOD

February 13, 2024 By Pastor Chukie Leave a Comment

THE DIVINE LOVE OF GOD – VERSUS – THE LOVE OF THE FIVE SENSES!

“Now we have RECEIVED, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God. . . 14 But the NATURAL MAN receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are SPIRITUALLY DISCERNED” 1 Corinthians 2:12, 14.

There’s THE DIVINE LOVE OF GOD, which is of God and God PERSONIFIED; and there’s THE LOVE OF THE FIVE SENSES which results from and it’s about what we SEE, HEAR, TASTE, SMELL and TOUCH/FEEL to know and understand it, in it’s context. And such sensual or senses love can’t fathom THE DIVINE GOD, and His divinity as THE GOD OF LOVE and LOVE PERSONIFIED. Neither can it be compared by any measured to THE GOD KIND OF DIVINE LOVE irrespective.

Hence, there’s the need to KNOW The LOVE of Christ, which SURPASSES, SUPERCEDES and TRANSCENDS SENSE KNOWLEDGE; and that’s if you must make sense of God’s default and personified divine LOVE. The divine love of God gives and serves – it’s a GIVING love and serving love, meaning, it does not DEMAND to be love because the embodiment is love and love personified, and it lavishly gives and serves LOVE unconditionally. And divine love in virtue, is a COMMENDED love because of what Christ Jesus is done for us by His love in our REDEMPTION in Him.

“For God so loved the world, that he GAVE his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life” John 3:16.

“And hope maketh not ashamed; BECAUSE THE LOVE OF GOD IS SHED ABROAD IN OUR HEARTS by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us. 6 For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. 7 For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. 8 But God COMMENDETH HIS LOVE TOWARD US, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.”

The FIVE SENSES love speaks of the NATURAL – SENSUAL man who operates by material sensory of FEELING/TOUCHING, TASTING, SMELLING, HEARING and SEEING, to make a concise conclusions in order to ensure it’s definition in love. It tends demand and fight to be love otherwise goes into a mood or mode of irreparable returns at some point.

This FIVE SENSES LOVE requires laboratory test of men for approval, and as such:

** It’s limited and

** It’s subject to change depending on the public poll of acceptance.

** It’s always awaiting all the time for the acknowledging and approval in – friendship, family, work and in places of governance, doing life and such like.

** It’s built of and on human selfishness even though its not easily acknowledge or spoken of as if it is or not.

** It’s based on conditionality in expression

** It’s based on sentiments in nearly all it’s intent.

And because the five senses love is natural and sensual, it can’t fathom the divine God of love nor God personified in His divine kind of love, hence – LAWS and RULES are made to regulate it with CHANGES in times to suit the human demand and supply.

And unfortunately, the SENSE love kind, could be deadly when not fully actualised, as many have been disappointed, derailed, depressed, suicidal and some even passed on untimely, when the expected expectations didn’t materialised and or come to fruition.

Divine Love is Good and is of God. And is lavishly given to all who comes to God in Christ Jesus by the Blessed Holy Spirit that dwells within a born again child of God. Romans 5:5-8.
