Listen for English
Jesus tell im disciples: “Anybody wey love Me go keep My word, and My Father go love am, and We go come meet am and make Our home with am.” John 14:23
You want make our Lord come meet you and live deep inside your soul? E be like say your answer go be “Yes” without hesitation. The way to make this happen na to love God and keep His word. When you do this, the Blessed Triniti go come live inside you.
E dey interesting say e be like say God love for us depend on our love for Am. In other words, na only when we first love God before E go love us? To talk am exactly as e be, God dey love us with perfect love, whether we love Am or we no love Am. But even as this one na true, love dey take one whole new form when person receive am and love back. So, when we choose to love God, we go suddenly realize say our love for Am dey open door for Am to come live inside us, change us and make our heart His holy sanctuary. Wetin a glorious gift!
Another thing wey dey interesting na say, part of wetin e mean to love God na to obey Am. But na so God nature be. Na Love itself E be, so to love Am must involve to surrender your will completely to His own. To obey Am perfectly for everything na powerful way to love Am. Na way to allow Am live inside you and, as you do so, take control of your will. Na only then you fit love Am more fully with your whole being.
Today, reflect especially on your desire make the Triniti Wey Holy Pass come live inside your soul. This one suppose be the main goal for our life. If God dey live inside us, every other thing for life go fall into place. Everything go work for good, and God go receive glory inside us and through us. Today, choose to love Am through your obedience, and the love between you and Am go grow well-well.
Lord, I really love You and I want love You more perfectly today. Help me make I submit to Your perfect will for everything. Help me make I always obey You perfectly. As I love You and submit to You like this, come make Your home inside me. Jesus, na You I trust.
