You Will Learn to Walk in Love

                        You Will Learn to Walk in Love

As you learn to walk in the spirit of prayer, you will learn to walk in love, because the Spirit of love, the Holy Spirit will teach you the same. He will keep reminding you:

     “This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. No one has greater love than this, to lay down one’s life for one’s friends,” (John 15:12-13).

We are supposed to make “LOVE our AIM”, in other words we are supposed to make “walking in love” our top post priority.

     “PURSUE LOVE and strive for the spiritual gifts, and especially that you may prophesy,” (1 Corinthians 14:1).

Many times we miss the mark of walking in love, when trouble rises from others; we tend to walk in our old ways of resentment.

And at those times the Spirit of God reminds us to forgive and walk in love. Many years ago, one person of our group was going around slandering me; I literally got fed up, and went to meet our Procurator,  as I reached his room, and I was going to enter, I heard the Holy Spirit say, “walk in love”, I returned without meeting Father. I literally shook myself  to get rid of all the resentment that had wrapped me. And continued to walk in love without any resentment against that person.

“Paul had gathered a bundle of brushwood an was putting it on the fire, when a viper, driven out by the heat, fastened itself on his hand…He, however, shook off the creature into the fire and suffered no harm,” (Acts 28:3-5).

Like Paul we need to shrug of the vipers of bitterness that wraps us as we serve the Lord, the Spirit of God within us will help us do the same.

The Holy Spirit know the words of Jesus “And because of the increase of lawlessness, the love of many will grow cold,” (Matthew 24:12). He will help praying people, to continue to walk in love.
