Shalom,

"Faith Food" by Kenneth E. Hagin for today is another one that is vital for walking in victory and success! 

Love Born

"God is love" (1 John 4:8). 

The love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost (Romans 5:5). 

When you were born again, God became your Father. God is a love God. You are a love child of a love God. You are born of God, and God is love; therefore, you are born of love. The nature of God is in you - and the nature of God is love. 

In fact, you can't say you don't have this divine love, because everyone in the family of God has it - or else they're not in the family! They may not be exercising it. They may be like the man who wrapped his one talent in a napkin and buried it (Matthew 25:25), but the Bible says that the love of God has been shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Spirit. That means the God-kind of love has been shed abroad in our heart, our spirit, our inner man. 

Romans 5:5 is not talking about the baptism in the Holy Spirit. It's talking about the New Birth - when you are born of the Spirit of God - that's when the love of God came in. When you were born spiritually, you partook of God's life and nature. 

Confession: God is love. I am born of God; therefore, I am born of love. I am a love child of a love God. The love of God is shed abroad in my heart by the Holy Spirit. My nature is love. It is natural for me to walk in love. 
We know from 1 Corinthians 13:8 that love NEVER fails! If WE desire to have success instead of failure, then we are going to have to make a 'determined purpose' to ALWAYS choose to walk in love! Since we know that love never fails, then meditation will reveal to us that NOT walking in love WILL lead to failure! When we truly understand that the God of the Bible is FOR us, then we realize that it doesn't do ANYONE any good to be against us! We can count on that! When God's Word  says that vengeance belongs to HIM (Romans 12:19), then we KNOW that we can simply forgive, walk in love and PRAY! Pray for those who misuse us, because THEY need it! AMEN!
