"Sending Our Love"

“Love Conquers All”

“And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him” (I John 4:16).  

Oftentimes in correspondence or verbal communications I have read or heard the common expression “We’re sending our love …” whether it’s to family, friends, acquaintances, a targeted audience, or the general populous. What a heart-felt sentiment to send. The recipient’s response to such words are usually joyous, warm receptions. If these words are so impactful in this context, then how much more would this world respond to the love of God expressed and sent through His people? One of the greatest divine attributes is love! 

To love God is the greatest of virtues, and to be loved by God is one of the greatest rewards. In the New Testament, love is more of a verb than a noun, and it has more to do with an action rather than a feeling. D.L. Moody said, “The world does not understand theology or dogma, but it understands love and sympathy.” In other words, the world doesn’t care how much you know until they know how much you care.” 

“The Pentecostal power, when you sum it all up, is just more of God's love. If it does not bring more love, it is simply a counterfeit.” - William J. Seymour 

One orator asked, “What does love look like?” The reply, “It has the hands to help others. It has the feet to hasten to the poor and needy. It has eyes to see misery and want. It has the ears to hear the sighs and sorrows of men. That is what love looks like.” Charles Spurgeon said, “In math, if you divide an infinite number by any number, no matter how large, you still have an infinite quotient; so, Jesus' love, being infinite, even though it is divided up for every person on earth, is still infinitely poured out on each one of us!” 

In retrospect, the math is simple: One infinite God reaching many infinite souls. Cultivate your relationship with God in prayer. Foremost, love God, and then love others. Pray for souls! Pray that God would send forth laborers into His harvest (Matthew 9:38).  

Send out the message “We’re sending our love …” through all you say and do. Grow in God’s unconditional love and allow the fruit of love to flourish; and then nourish others. Through the agape love of God, let’s Send Our Unconditional Love Steadfastly to souls, so they truly will know, that in their greatest needs, “Love conquers all!”

A Renewed Passion and Love for Souls

Throughout the ministry of the Lord Jesus Christ we find that He took time to minister to the lost soul, those hurting, as well as people in need, both physically and spiritually. In Luke 7:36-50, Jesus was visiting at a Pharisee’s house when a woman, who was a sinner, brought in an alabaster box of ointment and anointed Jesus’ feet. In her humility she wept, pouring out her soul, and with her tears she washed the feet of Jesus. She then dried His feet with her hair and kissed His feet. She was showing heartfelt gratitude, love, and respect for Jesus and His ministry as well as what He had personally done for her.    

When we love much—that love overflows into action. The perfume she brought cost her a great price, but no expense was too much, and she gave it all willingly with a heart of compassion and love. What is His sacrifice worth to us? What are we willing to do to show our love and appreciation for His love toward us? 

How can we show our love and passion for souls? 

• We can humble ourselves in prayer and seek the face of God for His will.  
• We can spend time reading the Word of God and let God speak to our hearts. 
• We can practice what we have read in the Word of God to make a difference in people’s lives. 
• We can show our gratitude to God for His love by sharing what He has done for us with others who do not yet know God (Matthew 7:12-20). 
• We can give of our time unselfishly and willingly to teach Bible Studies, Sunday School classes, and become more involved in the Church. 
• We can give our money through tithes and offerings to bless the work of God in our local church and across the nations (Luke 6:38). 
• We can share our blessings with others who are in need (Matthew 19:21). 

Do we receive the Word of God with joy? How do we express that joy? 

Luke 8:11-15 relays the story of the parable of the Sower. In our busy world, our life can become entangled with the cares of life, our job, our families, and our desires. We may let our soul become hard and calloused. What are our priorities in life? Do we need to examine our goals, dreams, and plans to determine if these agree with the Word of God? Let us pour into others what God has blessed us with and rekindle our passion to do the work of God. Love others the way Jesus would!

The World Network of Prayer Presents 

24/7 WATCH: A Year-Round Initiative for 24/7 Prayer

As of January 1, 2023, WNOP has continued the 24/7 prayer and fasting chain worldwide. It has been such a great success in 2022 that it was requested again. Each week WNOP is posting a prayer focus as daily prayer for the entire week. Also, weekly a video is posted on the WNOP Facebook Page of a prayer leader and/or minister leading in periodic prayer.

Many people throughout the world have signed up by committing in their hearts unto God that they will consistently join together in united prayer and fasting. WNOP also has partnered with those in local churches who are already a part of a current 24-hour prayer chain. All of these hours of consecration are culminating to help provide a complete mass prayer covering over the entire Church body and to help bring greater success in all that we do in Christ! Together, let’s “watch and pray” and behold great and mighty things in the kingdom of God! Let’s prevail over the enemy with victory and declare, “Not on My Watch!”
