*Live Lovingly like God* _By Archbishop Charles Agyinasare_ _Day 44 (13/02/2025)_ > *Ephesians 5:1-2 (NKJV) “Therefore be imitators of God as dear children. And walk in love, as Christ also has loved us and given Himself for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling aroma.”* The world desperately needs love and is looking for it, albeit in the wrong places. The Bible shows us that God is love, and therefore, if we would communicate God's kind of love, we need to be imitators of God. Here are three things to note about the God kind of love: 1. *The God kind of love is selfless.* The God kind of love is completely selfless; it constantly seeks the well-being of others. The Bible says a lot about this kind of love. The Bible shows us how God demonstrated His selflessness in love for us in Romans 5:8 (NKJV): “But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” One of the most important features of love is unselfishness. 2. *The God kind of love is impartial.* God is love and shows no partiality. The Bible says in Acts 10:34 (NKJV), “Then Peter opened his mouth and said: ‘In truth I perceive that God shows no partiality’”. As sons of God, we seek to be like God. Our walk in love can readily be seen by how we treat people, especially those who cannot do us any good in return for the good we have done them. 3. *The God kind of love forgives.* Love forgives; it does not hold a grudge. The Bible says in Colossians 3:13 (NKJV), “Bearing with one another, and forgiving one another if anyone has a complaint against another; even as Christ forgave you, so you also must do.” We have many opportunities every day to get offended. However, each time we must make a choice to forgive. If we choose to live by our feelings, we will never flow in this all-important virtue of love. God is love, and He forgives. If we want to be like Him, then we must walk in the same. _Precious one, true love is found in God; and His love is selfless, impartial, and forgiving. Therefore, let us live lovingly at all times._ *Prayer: * Heavenly Father, shed Your love abroad my heart by the Holy Ghost, in Jesus’ name. Amen. *Cross References:* 1 Corinthians 13:13 John 3:16 1 John 4:7-21 _Join my WhatsApp and Facebook broadcast channels for more insights and life-changing information:_ *WhatsApp:* https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029VaDR57i8F2p9KGQQdf1C *Facebook:* https://m.me/j/AbYGVDBGVG4mwk4K/

*Deal With The Enemies of Marriage* _By Archbishop Charles Agyinasare_ _Day 47 (16/02/2025)_ > *_Genesis‬ ‭2:24‭-‬25‬ Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and they shall become one flesh. And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed”‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬_* “God created marriage. No government subcommittee envisioned it. No social organization developed it. Marriage was conceived and born in the mind of God.” – Max Lucado Marriage is from God, is of God and is godly. Any other thing that opposes or seeks to nullify the concept of marriage is ungodly, devilish or man-made. Marriage has been a common tradition among different tribes and races of people who have never known each other for centuries. Since marriage was not instituted by man, man cannot set it aside without being guilty before God. Someone has said, "The Bible opens and closes with a wedding." This shows how important marriage is in God's mind. And like every other good thing God makes, the devil seeks to destroy it. Here are three enemies of marriage we must stand against strongly: 1.⁠ *⁠Satan’s direct attacks.* ‭‭John‬ ‭10:10‬ "The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly." Satan is a thief that launches direct attacks on families and marriages; firstly, by generally denigrating the idea of marriage in the world's mind and secondly, by causing problems in the marriages of individuals, especially believers. To enjoy the fullest blessing of marriage, we must be resolute against the enemy and give him no place in our marriages. We must drive him out of our homes together with all the problems he brings. 2.⁠ ⁠*Sin’s Attraction.* ‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭13:4‬ ‭(EASY‬‬) “When a man and a woman have married each other, they must each respect the marriage. Husbands and wives must only have sex with each other. God will punish anyone who has sex with another person's husband or wife. He will punish anyone who has sex in a wrong way.”‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬ Marriage is to be honoured by all, especially in the area of sex. The allurement of sexual sins has always been an enemy of marriages through practices such as cohabitation, adultery, hookups, pornography, no-fault divorce and spouse swapping. Not forgetting all the homosexuality/gender confusion-related issues. These things, God will judge. So, let us protect our marriages from these. 3.⁠ *⁠Society’s abandonment.* In Genesis 19:1-28, the people in Lot's day abandoned God's purpose of marriage to fulfil their own lust. The result was the judgment of God. Unlike Sodom, which had only one righteous Lot, we have a lot of righteous people in town today, but the silence of the majority will make the minority who speak for the devil gain ground. If society abandons teaching its young ones morality and the sacredness of marriage, the devil will be happy to do that for us. But we must speak up to protect the blessedness of proper family life. _Precious one, let's remember the great blessings reserved for godly marriages and great judgment against any form of perversion. May the Lord bless you with a pure, honourable and prosperous marriage._ *Prayer:* _Heavenly Father, I thank You for the blessing of marriage. Lord, let Your glory and purpose be manifested in the marriage of Your people and let the devil be bound, in Jesus' name. Amen._ *Cross References:* ⁠Proverbs 18:22 ⁠Romans 1:32 Judges 19: 29 Judges 20:13 _Join my WhatsApp and Facebook broadcast channels for more insights and life-changing information:_ *WhatsApp:* https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029VaDR57i8F2p9KGQQdf1C *Facebook:* https://m.me/j/AbYGVDBGVG4mwk4K/

*Guard Your Love For God* _By Archbishop Charles Agyinasare_ _Day 45 (14/02/2025)_ > *_Matthew 24:12 (NKJV), ”And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold.”_* From today's reading, Jesus mentioned that there would be an abundance of iniquity, which would cause the love of many for the things of God to grow cold in the end time. As Christians, our love for the things of God will be tested through time, and we must guard our love for the things of God at all times lest it grows cold. We must, therefore, work hard to keep our love for God or rekindle it if it has grown cold in any way. Here are three ways to guard your love for God: 1. *Examine yourself frequently.* As the Bible says in 2 Corinthians 13:5, “Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves”. We need to frequently evaluate ourselves to know the state of our love for God. 2. *Evaluate your moral system.* The Bible says in Colossians 1:10 (NKJV), “That you may walk worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing Him, being fruitful in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God;” As Christians, we must live a life based on a moral system that honours the Lord, and you will always please him but a decaying moral system would lead to inevitable cold love. If our view of sin has diminished and our fear for the Lord is gone, then you probably fall in the category whose love has grown cold. 3. *Keep good company.* The company you keep would make or unmake you (1 Corinthians 15:33). A sinful company would sear your conscience and cause you to tolerate ungodliness. In the same way, when you keep company with those on fire for God, they help you to also be on fire. _Precious one, examine yourself, watch out for your moral system and the company you keep if you want to rekindle your love for God._ *Prayer:* _Heavenly Father, flush out everything that is draining my love for you and rekindle my love for You, in Jesus’ name. Amen._ *Cross References:* 1 Thessalonians 3:12 Philippians 1:9 Revelation 2:4 _Join my WhatsApp and Facebook broadcast channels for more insights and life-changing information:_ *WhatsApp:* https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029VaDR57i8F2p9KGQQdf1C *Facebook:* https://m.me/j/AbYGVDBGVG4mwk4K/

*No More In-law Trouble* _By Archbishop Charles Agyinasare_ _Day 43 (12/02/2025)_ > _*Genesis 2:18 "And the Lord God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him."*_ The story is told of a troublesome mother-in-law, Grace, who went to visit her daughter’s new home. “I’m so glad to see you, Grandma”, said her grandson, little Kofi. “Now, maybe Daddy will do the trick he has been promising us.” Madam Grace was curious. “What trick is that?” she asked. “I heard him tell mommy that he would climb the walls if you came to visit!” Kofi answered. I am sure as young as Kofi was, he had noticed the friction between his parents and grandparents, which I call “In-law Trouble”. Many marriages have suffered because of this. “In-law Trouble”, if not carefully managed, could be a recipe for that marriage’s doom. Here are 3 things to do to avoid “In-law Trouble”: 1. *Abide by the “leave and cleave” principle.* The Bible makes us understand in Genesis 2:24 that it is important for the new couple to leave and cleave: “Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.” 2. *Do not see your in-laws as a cross to bear.* Fairly frequently, we consider our in-laws to be in trouble even when there is no such trouble. What we see them as in our hearts, affects the relationship they build with us. Do not see them as trouble; relax about them and tap into their wisdom instead. 3. *Do not dishonour your in-laws.* Your in-laws are not your parents, but they raised your sweetheart and, hence, qualify as your parents, too. The Bible says in Ephesians 6:2, “Honour thy father and mother, which is the first commandment with promise. That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the earth.” Instead of dishonouring them, have understanding, patience and open communication with them. Moreover, learn to compromise with them on differences. _Precious one, you are not married to your in-laws so just relax about them._ *Prayer:* _Heavenly Father, grant me wisdom to overcome “in-law trouble” in Jesus’ name, Amen._ *Cross References:* Mark 10:7-8 Exodus 20:12 Proverbs 3:13-18 _Join my WhatsApp and Facebook broadcast channels for more insights and life-changing information:_ *WhatsApp:* https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029VaDR57i8F2p9KGQQdf1C *Facebook:* https://m.me/j/AbYGVDBGVG4mwk4K/

*Make Love Your Great Quest* _By Archbishop Charles Agyinasare_ _Day 46 (15/02/2025)_ > *_1 Corinthians 14:1 (AMPC) “Eagerly pursue and seek is to acquire [this] love [make it your aim, your great quest] …”_* The Lord Jesus Christ, before his departure from the earth, gave His disciples in new commandment: the commandment of love. He commanded them to love one another just as he had loved them. He also to them that their love was going to be the proof that they were his disciples. Apostle Paul, also writing to the church, instructed them to pursue the love of God. He told them to make love their aim and to make it their great quest. Every child of God must endeavour to always walk in love because God is love. And we must understand that the love of God is a command directed towards our attitude, and not our emotions. Here are three characteristics of the love of God: 1. *Love endures long and is patient.* 1 Corinthians 13:4 (AMPC) says, “Love endures long and is patient…” The love of God has the capacity to endure difficulty and poor treatment from others. It has the quality of being patient with people even when they are being intolerable. Just as God has endured all our sins, failures and mistakes, and has been patient towards us, we must do likewise towards others. 2. *Love is kind.* 1 Corinthians 13:4 (AMPC) says, “Love endures long and is patient and kind…” The love of God shows kindness always in all situations. Many people, for example, may endure the irritating attitude of their spouse but they are not kind while enduring it. We are naturally harsh towards those who are irritating and offensive but the love of God responds with kindness—lovingkindness. 3. *Love is not self-seeking.* 1 Corinthians 13:5 says, “…Love (God’s love in us) does not insist on its own rights or its own way, for it is not self-seeking…” The love of God is not selfish. To walk in the love of God, we must learn to put other people first. For example, one must learn to put the interest and well-being of their spouse before theirs. As we esteem others more importantly than ourselves, we demonstrate the love of God just us Jesus laid down his life for our salvation. _Precious one, remember that the love of God is the greatest virtue to be pursued as a child of God. And everyone who is a child of God has the capacity to walk in the love of God because the Holy Spirit sheds this love on us._ *Prayer:* _Heavenly Father, I thank You for Your great love abiding in my heart by the power of the Holy Spirit; I walk in love always, in Jesus’ name. Amen._ *Cross References:* 1 Corinthians 13:13 John 13:34-35 James 2:8 _Join my WhatsApp and Facebook broadcast channels for more insights and life-changing information:_ *WhatsApp:* https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029VaDR57i8F2p9KGQQdf1C *Facebook:* https://m.me/j/AbYGVDBGVG4mwk4K/

*Bear it, Overcome it!* _By Archbishop Charles Agyinasare_ _Day 48 (17/02/2025)_ > _*1 Corinthians 10:13 (NKJV) "No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man, but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it." *_ So long as we live in this world, temptations will come our way but there is nothing as exciting as overcoming temptations. In the scripture above, God has given us two sureties. That is, we will not be tempted beyond our limit, and there will always be a way of escape: Even so, we must look to Jesus, who was tempted as we are, yet without sin. He left us a blueprint in the Gospels when He overcame temptation in the wilderness. Here are three things you must do to overcome temptation: 1. *Know the word of God.* Matthew 4:4 (NKJV), "…Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.” Bread or food keeps the body alive, likewise, the word of God keeps our spirit man alive. Knowing the word of God does not mean having head knowledge of the word but having it firmly fixed in our hearts through meditation. When it is firmly fixed in our hearts, it becomes a filter for our thoughts and what we see or hear from others. By the word, we reject impure thoughts or suggestions and only absorb their truth. 2. *Speak the word.* Matthew 4:7 (NKJV), "Jesus said to him, “It is written again, ‘You shall not tempt the Lord your God. “ On all three occasions, Jesus was tempted; though He could have overcome the devil silently, He countered him by saying, 'It is written'. Anytime the enemy fires his fiery darts at us, we must quench them with the word of faith. Remember, the word of God in our mouth carries the same potency as the word in His own mouth. Therefore, we must speak it. 3. *Resist the Devil.* Matthew 4:10 (NKJV), "Then Jesus said to him, “Away with you, Satan! For it is written, ‘You shall worship the Lord your God, and Him only you shall serve. “ The statement 'away with you, Satan!' was Jesus resisting Satan. Later in His ministry, after praising Peter for speaking the mind of God, He then resisted the enemy’s voice Peter uttered. We must take our place of authority as believers and resist the devil else he will cause us to stumble. _Precious one, you have the power to overcome all forms of temptations. To keep living the lifestyle of victory, ensure you know the word, speak it to the situation and resist the devil._ *Prayer:* _Heavenly Father, help me to overcome every form of temptation that will come my way, in Jesus’ name. Amen._ *Cross References:* Joshua 1:8 Hebrews 4:12 Romans 10:8-10 _Join my WhatsApp and Facebook broadcast channels for more insights and life-changing information:_ *WhatsApp:* https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029VaDR57i8F2p9KGQQdf1C *Facebook:* https://m.me/j/AbYGVDBGVG4mwk4K/

*Control Your Anger* _By Archbishop Charles Agyinasare_ _Day 42 (11/02/2025)_ > *_Ecclesiastes 7:9 "Be not hasty in thy spirit to be angry: for anger resteth in the bosom of fools."_* The Bible teaches us not to be quick to get angry because man’s anger, according to the Apostle James, usually results in unrighteousness (James 1:19-20). Therefore, we must all heed Apostle Paul’s admonition; “In your anger do not sin. Do not let the sun go down while you are still angry.” This means that your anger can be controlled, and that is what God expects from His children. Here are three ways of controlling your anger: 1. *Don’t allow your anger to build up.* Psalms 37:8 (NLT) "Stop your anger! Turn from your rage! Do not envy others— it only leads to harm." There are moments when we are aware of anger building up in us, and we must, in such moments, stop the anger by deliberately removing ourselves from whatever circumstance is causing it. You must make every effort to stop it right there before it graduates into full-blown anger. 2. *Give a gentle answer.* Proverbs 15:1 (NIV) "A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger." If someone approaches you with queries of anger, the normal response is to reciprocate with anger. But this can be controlled. How? By stopping your anger and giving a gentle answer in response to any provocative confrontation in order to quench the other person’s anger. 3. *Put aside anger.* Ephesians 4:31 (CEB) "Put aside all bitterness, losing your temper, anger, shouting, and slander, along with every other evil." Another way of controlling your anger is by putting anger aside: that is training yourself not to react when fully angry. Refuse to speak or do anything until you calm down. When your anger is dissipated, you may return to address the issue with a clear mind and controlled spirit. _Precious one, control your anger by stopping it from building up, responding gently to provocative confrontations and completely refusing to respond when angry._ *Prayer:* _Heavenly Father, by the power of the Holy Spirit, I put my temper in check, in Jesus’ name. Amen._ *Cross References:* Ephesians 4:26 Proverbs 14:17 Romans 12:18, 21 _Join my WhatsApp and Facebook broadcast channels for more insights and life-changing information:_ *WhatsApp:* https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029VaDR57i8F2p9KGQQdf1C *Facebook:* https://m.me/j/AbYGVDBGVG4mwk4K/
