Love Is Sweeter Than Power
GOD is Omnipotent, the All-powerful One with unlimited power and authority. He is not only powerful, but He is Power. The Psalmist says, "God has spoken once, Twice I have heard this: That (all) power belongs to God." (Psalms 62:11).
However, God is not only Power, but God is also Love. God is not only all-powerful, but He is also Love. Bible says "....God is love; and he that dwells in love dwell in God" (1 John 4:16). In fact, from the scriptures, it appears God feels more comfortable aligning Himself with His Love dimension than His power dimension. He makes me realize that LOVE IS SWEETER THAN POWER.
Proof of His abundant love revolves around His sweet mercies. This was what prompted Him to keep pursuing rebellious mankind. He is the All-powerful One who meekly keeps knocking at the door of the hearts of humans, wanting to have a formidable relationship with us. This is despite the fact that He can do without us, since He is all-sufficient. A good explanation for this is this: LOVE IS SWEETER THAN POWER.
God loves you vehemently and He desires an intimate relationship with you to help you fulfil your destiny. It is your destiny to have an intimate righteous relationship with God that is eternal in nature through Jesus Christ. Then you will be empowered with the Holy Spirit to have dominion over creation, and you won't be a slave to anything - including poverty, sickness, satan, hell, sin, curses, etc.
While you have the power of self-will, to live your life the way you like and turn against the way of the LORD, please, choose Love today, because it is sweeter. And you see, the law of love goes thus: "You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ And the second is like it: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.' - Jesus (Matthew 22:37-39)
If we all can embrace God's kind of love, our world will experience heaven on earth.
How can all these become realistic?
The Bible says: "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life." John 3:16
Hence, the first step is to embrace Jesus as your LORD and SAVIOUR. You must be determined to forsake anything sinful, and simply pray:
"LORD JESUS, I believe in my heart that You died for me and You raised on the third day for my justification. And so I confess with my mouth that You are my Lord and Savior. From today, I belong to the family of God. Thank You for giving me eternal life."
Eternal life resides in you, and it compels you to love in God's way. Love Is Sweeter Than Power. God bless you.
