WHERE ARE YOU LIVING?

John 15:9 As the Father loved Me, I also have loved you; abide in My love.

That word 'abide' means to 'live in, or remain', so Jesus is telling His disciples and us to 'to live' in His love.

When we forget to live in God's love we move next door and start living in worry and anxiety. Sometimes we go off and live up the street in fear and the land of 'what ifs'.

But Jesus gives us this command, live in My love because then you'll be safe, and secure.  When we believe God the Father and Jesus love us we can 'live' in that knowledge.  

When the enemy throws things at us and tries to move us into fear and worry we can turn around, resist him and say "I'm living and I'm remaining in God's love. My God is more powerful than this situation, He loves me, He's protecting me and He's the One directing my paths and I refuse to move out from under His protection so fear and anxiety and worry, you all get out of here! You have no right and no place in my life. I wont give you an inch, get out!"

When we believe God loves us and receive His love we can soak it up and we'll find it easy then to love others. There is a lost world of souls out there who need to know God loves them too.  God so loved the world, God so love you and me, He gave us His Son the Lord Jesus.

If ever you feel like doubting if God loves you, or you've blown it again and think He can't love you anymore, just stop for a minute and look at Jesus' nail pierced hands and His body so covered with His own precious blood just so we could receive His Father's great love for us. 

Never listen to the lie that God doesn't love you.  He wrote it in blood.

Let's 'live' and remain in the Father's great love today. Don't allow the devil to move you into anything else. Tell his removal van to keep driving, it doesn't belong at your house! 

l John 4:16 And we have known and believed the love that God has for us. God is love, and he who abides in love abides in God, and God in him.

v.18 There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear...

Thank You Lord for your great love for me. I believe it and I receive it right now. Amen.
