OCCUPY TILL I COME SERIES

 “Once God has spoken, twice have I heard this, that *Power* belongs to God and *steadfast Love* belongs to you, O Lord. For you repay all *according to their work*(Ps 62:11-12).        

Beloved in Christ, Love is a channel that connects God’s power to our work in the kingdom Business. To do work requires power.  Power is ability to work but here,  Love (energy)  is the capacity we have to do the works of Christ.  It is a tool,  a weapon of warfare. This is evident when the scripture says: *Love your enemies*Matt 5:44.  This tool of Love is what God renews Love in us daily so as to be energetic and prepared to occupy. Lam 3:22-23.

No wonder the devil, through is schemes today have filled our world with counterfeit nature of love: lust, greed,  spirit husband/wife, Desire to do evil,  etc. All this have demons backing them up. Jesus came to undo this works of evil and the greatest manifestation of Christ is Love. The flesh  cannot do the works of the Spirit. Seeing through Matt 5:43-48, our love also can become a weapon through prayer.

We cannot love only those who love us and expect a reward. Mt 5:46. Love is the greatest investment of God in us and the greatest work of man that yields reward is love. We under an obligation to Love Rm 13:8. As such our spiritual warfare and Life in the Spirit must be driven by love. As St.  Paul says, let us stop give the devil an upper hand by our unforgiveness and hurt. 2 Cor 2:11
