Let Brotherly Love Continue
Our month is drawing to its end and we rejoice over the encouragement bought forth by the Word of God and our Gen B.FYs. Rejoice in the Lord Always, Church Family, and again I say, Rejoice!
SCRIPTURE: "Let brotherly love continue." Hebrews 13:1
The Bible speaks of the brotherly love that we should have for each other as Christians. "And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity." (2 Peter 1:7; KJV). Brotherly love refers to affection within a family. In the Bible brotherly love is a natural feeling that comes from close siblings, friends, cousins, or even fathers coming together to fellowship with believers. Jesus shows His love for others by blessing and serving the poor, sick, and the distressed. Jesus also tells us that this brotherly love shows kindness and compassion toward others without expecting anything in return. Be devoted to one another in brotherly love, never lack when honoring one another above ourselves. As brothers in Christ, we need to keep our spiritual fervor, serving the Lord, be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer (Romans 12:11-12). "Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O Lord, my strength, and my redeemer." (Psalm 19:14 KJV)
Prayer: Dear Lord, thanks for being the awesome God You are. We’re thankful that You constantly show us grace and mercy. We are thankful and grateful that You called us to relationship with You in Christ. In Jesus name, Amen.
