LOVE MEASURING GAUGE

John 14:15 If ye love me, keep my commandments.


Obedience is God's measuring gauge of our love for him. God is love, and he that dwells in God dwells in Love(1 John 4:16). The level of your love for God will determine the amount of God you have in you. Every believer's manifestation depends on the amount of God in them. God's definition of love is obedience to His commandments; so, if you select the commandments you want to obey and leave the others, you are limiting your growth by doing such things. 

John 15:8 (Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples. 9 As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love. 10 If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love).


John 17:4 (I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do. 5 And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was).


Jesus Christ says that he does everything God commanded him to do and demands his glorification. He responds by saying that He already glorifies him. So, friends, your glorification, your shining in life, depends on your love for God. John 12:28 (Father, glorify thy name. Then came there a voice from heaven, saying, I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again).

Obedience is the determinant of our love for God. Christ says if you love him, you will obey his commandments; so disobedience to God´s instructions is a clear indication that you don't love God. Your proof of love for God is in your obedience to his instruction. 

John 21:17 He saith unto him the third time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? Peter was grieved because he said unto him the third time, Lovest thou me? And he said unto him, Lord, thou knowest all things; thou knowest that I love thee. Jesus saith unto him, Feed my sheep.


Jesus says to Peter, " If you indeed love me, go and take care of my sheep; that is, I came here to gather the lost sheep back to God, and I am going back to God, don't let them scatter, feed them, guide them, and teach them how to bring more lost sheep into the same fold. We all know what happened to Peter; he did what Christ instructed him to do, even with his life. Christianity has come to stay because of Peter´s obedience to Christ's last commandments. Christ says to Peter that he will build his Church on his obedience. Can Jesus say the same thing about me and you? Disobedience cost Saul his throne; the quickest way to lose your enthronement and favour with God is disobedience. God considers those who disobey him as children of the devil, and a child of the devil has no space nor inheritance with God. Friends, if you don't want God to disinherit, obey Him and continue to obey Him. 


1 Samuel 2:30 (Wherefore the LORD God of Israel saith, I said indeed that thy house, and the house of thy father, should walk before me for ever: but now the LORD saith, Be it far from me; for them that honour me I will honour, and they that despise me shall be lightly esteemed). 


The only way to win God´s heart is through obedience; David was called a man after God's heart because of his obedience. He won all his battles because God was with him. It is our obedience that will keep His presence in our lives; God has no business with a disobedient child. The greatest, the first, and the last commandments of God are love. 

Mark 16:15 (And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature).


John 15:12 This is my commandment, that ye love one another, as I have loved you. 13 Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. 14 Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you.


Satan says that Job did not serve God for nothing, which means even the devil knows that God rewards us for loving him. We demonstrate our love for God by taking pleasure in populating His kingdom, and in return, He will prosper our way. 

1 Corinthians 2:9 But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.

Lord Jesus, I repent of my sins and accept You as my Lord and Saviour. I believe you died for me so that I could become a new man/woman. Forgive me all my sins, wash me with your blood, and give me a new heart. Thank you, Lord, for saving my soul. Now I believe I am born again. And I am a child of God. Amen!
