Daily Devotion to God’s Holy Word.
By, Karen Rowe
Relationships with people is sticky sometimes.
READ Luke 17
Even in Church, you will be offended, but the call on our Life is to get over It, make it right (as far as it depends on us) to remain at Peace within our soul that we have NOT offended God by the same offence against our brother or sister in Christ.
Highlight the word fellow BELIEVER. In translation, the word BROTHER or SISTER in Christ. Jesus describes His mother & brother like this:
For whoever does the will of my Father in heaven is my brother and sister and mother.”
Matthew 12:50 ESV
In this world, we come across unbelievers & also followers of the father of lies. They are not in the family of God YET & ONLY YOU know LORD if dry bones will live.
And he said to me, “Son of man, CAN these bones live?” And I answered, “O Lord God , you know.” THEN he said to me, “Prophesy over these bones, and SAY TO them, O dry bones, HEAR the word of the Lord . THEN he said to me, “Prophesy TO THE breath; prophesy, son of man, and SAY TO the breath, THUS SAYS THE LORD GOD : Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe on these slain, THAT they may live.” AND I WILL put my Spirit within you, AND you shall live, and I WILL place you in your own land. THEN you shall KNOW that I am the Lord ; I HAVE spoken, and I WILL do it, declares the Lord .”
Ezekiel 37:3-4, 9, 14 ESV
“You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven. For he makes his sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust. For if you love those who love you, what reward do you have? Do not even the tax collectors do the same? And if you greet only your brothers, what more are you doing than others? Do not even the Gentiles do the same? You therefore must be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect.
Matthew 5:43-48 ESV
For my yoke is easy to bear, and the burden I give you is light.”
Matthew 11:30 NLT
If anyone says, “I love God,” … Follow JESUS ♡
Love looks like the Cross. Spirit Control with Anointed Authority.
Final Thoughts …
In Closing, there is so much here, yet the final thought the Spirit of the Lord is impressing on my heart of Jesus to say is this … Forgiveness leaves no room in our heart for revenge / nor ill-thoughts toward that person, because something Miraculous happens in Christ! Grace floods our heart!!! Forgiveness comes in us like a flood of living warm oil that frees a soul to let go of any control that UNforgiveness can have over us, a place Satan can steal our Peace, if we are unWise to what is really going on. The Holy Spirit we allow / LET control our heart is vital to our freedoms in Christ. God will give you a method, if need be to Reconcile Peace between believers. But, as far as unbelievers, they must first come to Christ to understand what forgiveness is all about. Release that forgiveness in the rightful Hand of Jesus, where there is nothing left for us to forgive, because Forgiveness has come for whosoever might believe.
Stay Blessed my Friends! Love in Christ is Powerful!
JESUS ALREADY DID IT ALL!
If you don’t know Jesus like this, Come! Come to the ONE who died for your sins, because God desires for you to come home to be with Him! Yes, my friend, there is forgiveness, grace and HOPE! Won’t you receive the Grace Jesus left for you? Peace, Joy, Freedom from sin and when you Receive this, you will never be the same! And, when you Come, STAY! Jesus loves you! We are praying for you; and when you come, please pray for us as well! There is more than what you see in front of you! Look up to the Heaven’s and know God has known you since BEFORE you were even born! God loved you and knew the choices you would make! Jesus loved you, because you needed His Love So … Now, all that is left, is for you to come and receive the Mercy and Grace that God has waiting for you. Believe in your heart that Jesus is Raised from the Dead; and Confess with your mouth, Jesus is your Lord. God will hear you no matter how you say it, because God looks at and knows the value of your heart!
We would love to hear from you!
TILL NEXT TIME!
“GRACE AND PEACE TO YOU FROM GOD OUR FATHER AND THE LORD JESUS CHRIST (2 Corinthians 1:2, NIV).”
Love in Christ,

“WRITING THE STORY OF MY LIFE WITH EVERY CHOICE JESUS HELPS ME TO MAKE AND LEARNING HOW TO BE BLESSED AND LIVE LIFE LARGE, HAPPY AND FREE. I CARE.”
Personal Motto: “I don’t have it all figured out, BUT GOD DOES … Follow JESUS!”
Personal Revelation Life Verse: 1 John 4:16And we have come to know and to believe the love that God has for us. God is love, and the one who remains in love remains in God, and God remains in him. (HCSB)
Thank you Jesus!
