YOUR FAITH IS STRENGTHENED BY THE LOVE OF GOD

1John 4:18 (GNB, NLT), Galatians 5:6 (NKJV)
There is no fear in love; perfect love drives out all fear. So then, love has not been made perfect in anyone who is afraid,  *Such love has no fear, because perfect love expels all fear. If we are afraid, it is for fear of punishment, and this shows that we have not fully experienced his perfect love. *For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision avails anything, but faith works through love.

The more you are conscious of the love of God, the more your faith will be strengthened. This is why it is very important that we keep hearing the Gospel of the love and grace of God shown to us through Christ. The revelation of the Gospel and the love of God feeds your faith and starves your doubt.

In the Amplified Classic, Galatians 5:6 says, “For [if we are] in Christ Jesus, neither circumcision nor uncircumcision counts for anything, but only faith activated and energized and expressed and working through love.” The Passion Translation says, “When you’re placed into the Anointed One and joined to him, circumcision and religious obligations can benefit you nothing. All that matters now is living in the faith that is activated and brought to perfection by love.” When your faith is weak, it is a sign of a deficiency of your revelation and consciousness of the love of God.

As you grow in the consciousness and understanding of God’s perfect love for you, it drives our fear from your heart and replaces it with hope, boldness, and confidence. Beyond being conscious of God’s ability to do something, you will be assured of God’s willingness and commitment to do it for you.

Prayer:
Father, I thank you that the revelation of your love is strengthening my faith. Please reveal your love more and more to me
