Questions, Answers & Prayer:
It’s hard to love unlovely ones who are doing things that I hate. How can I have a rejoicing heart to love those difficult to love?
You can hate lawless behavior & ask God for the kindness of heart that leads men to repentance. A rejoicing heart depends on God.
What does Jesus say about this?
Jesus says, “I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness… Jesus says to you, “Let your light shine before men…that they may see your good works & glorify your Father who is in heaven- Mt 5:16”
My heart can rejoice in: God’s goodness, Christ’s victory, the fact that it’s possible, in Christ, to love the unlovely, God’s command for me to arise, shine & declare light to the hard to love?
“Father, when Your light touches us, strengthen our hearts to obey, rejoice & to let no unwholesome word proceed from our mouth…only…a word…for edification according to the need of the moment, so…it’ll give grace even in the midst of deep darkness to those who hear. Lord, respond by releasing Your glory & bringing revival to our families, cities & nation. Amen.”
“Arise, shine…your light has come…the glory of the Lord has risen upon you…darkness will cover the earth…deep darkness the peoples…the Lord will arise upon you…His glory…upon you
(Isa 60:1-2) Amen.”
