Love fulfills the law.

Love fulfills the law.

“… for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law.” Romans 13:8b

According to the Word in our opening scripture loving others is fulfilling the law. Therefore, all the blessings of Deuteronomy 28:1-13 will be evident in your life.

For instance, in Deuteronomy 28:1 the Bible says, “And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe and to do all his commandments which I command thee this day, that the LORD thy God will set thee on high above all nations of the earth:” When you are walking in love you are setting yourself up for God to set you high above the nations of the earth.

Therefore, you cannot be walking in love and not be a high flier. A good example was Mother Theresa. She just committed her life to loving the poorest of the poor in India. As she sacrificed her life for such a worthy cause in love, before long God gave her influence over nations; to the point that she began to speak to Presidents of nations.

What made her a high flier? Love. Mother Theresa was feeding the poor. Showing love and affection to these outcasts in society; dirty, smelly and diseased people. That was what she was doing with her life. As she added value to the lives of these ones, God added more value to her life.

Prayer.
Dear Father, I thank you for grace to remain committed to a life of love and unconditional benevolence even to the undeserving, in Jesus' Name. Amen.

For further study, read:
Romans 13:10, Galatians 5:14, James 2:8.

Doing the Word.
Ask God to show you what you need to start doing to add value to the lives of people around you.
