Accept and Share the Love of God

We love Him, because He first loved us. 1 JOHN 4:19

More than anything, you need a revelation of God's love for you personally. God's love for you is the foundation for your faith, your freedom from sin, and your ability to step out in ministry to others without fear in the form of insecurity.
God made you with a longing in your heart to be loved. And the Word assures you that God loves you. Yet many people mistakenly believe they have worn God out with their failures. You can't cause God not to love you. Love isn't something God does-it is who He is (see 1 John 4:8 ).
As you meditate on God's love at the end of the day, accept it and express your great love for Him. Then as you go about your day tomorrow-and all your tomorrows--share that love with others.

Faint Not

When you go forth to battle against you enemies and see horses and chariots and an army greater than your own, do not be afraid of them, for the Lord your God, Who brought you out of the land of Egypt, is with you....Let not your [ mind and ] hearts faint; fear not, and do not tremble or be terrified [ and in dread ]
because of them. For the Lord your God is He Who goes with you to fight for you against your enemies to save you.
DEUTERONOMY 20:1, 3-4

A fainthearted person cannot take much. He has to have everything a certain way or he gives up and quits. He gets discouraged and depressed quickly.
What happens when your heart faints? "I can't do this. It's just too hard." If that describes you, know that you don't have to stay that way. The power of God is available to you to break that faint hearted spirit off your life. Instead of thinking and saying, "It is too hard," say, " I can do whatever I need to do because God is with me."
