“Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law” (Romans 13:8). Love is the ultimate debt we continually owe others, a responsibility that never ends. By loving others, we live out the very heart of God’s New-Testament law of love, fulfilling its purpose in our relationships.

“A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another” (John 13:34, 35). Jesus set the standard for love by His own example, calling us to a sacrificial and selfless love. Our witness to the world hinges on this love, which is the defining mark of true discipleship.

“Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God: and every one that loveth him that begat loveth him also that is begotten of him. By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments. For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous” (1 John 5:1-3). True love for God is expressed through obedience, which flows naturally from a transformed heart. His commands are life-giving, not oppressive, because they align us with His love and purpose.

“But you were unwilling to go up. You rebelled against the command of the LORD your God; you grumbled in your tents and said, ‘It is because the LORD hates us that he has brought us out of the land of Egypt to hand us over to the Amorites to destroy us” (Deuteronomy 1:26, 27). Fear and distrust can distort our view of God’s intentions, leading to rebellion and complaint. It’s therefore prudent to guard against interpreting challenges as evidence of God’s absence rather than opportunities to trust His promises.

“We love him, because he first loved us... And this commandment have we from him, That he who loveth God love his brother also” (1 John 4;19, 21). Love for God is inseparable from love for others. God’s initiating love calls us to reflect His character through tangible acts of love toward those around us.
- January 23
“And hope does not disappoint us, because God’s love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit that has been given to us” (Romans 5:5). Our hope in God is secure because it’s rooted in God’s love, not in our circumstances. The Holy Spirit’s presence assures us that His love is an active and sustaining force in our lives.

“Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers” (1 Timothy 1:9) The law exists to restrain sin, not for those who live righteously. As believers who yield to the prompting of the holy Spirit, we live beyond the need for legal constraint.

“And you, who were dead in trespasses and in the uncircumcision of your flesh (your sensuality, your sinful carnal nature), [God] brought to life together with [Christ], having freely forgiven us all our transgressions, Having canceled and blotted out and wiped away the handwriting of the note (bond) with its legal decrees and demands which was in force and stood against us (hostile to us). This [note with its regulations, decrees, and demands] He set aside and cleared completely out of our way by nailing it to [His] cross. [God] disarmed the principalities and powers that were ranged against us and made a bold display and public example of them, in triumphing over them in Him and in it [the cross]” (Colossians 2:13-15, AMPC). Christ went to the cross to secure our complete forgiveness and freedom. Every accusation and spiritual opposition has been publicly defeated, leaving us victorious in Him.

“And Moses verily was faithful in all his house, as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were to be spoken after; But Christ as a son over his own house; whose house are we, if we hold fast the confidence and the rejoicing of the hope firm unto the end” (Hebrews 3:5, 6). Under the law, Moses displayed complete faithfulness and obedience to God, yet he was still a servant. By contrast, under grace, we have a place in God’s household because we’re no longer servants, but children.

“Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God” (1 John 3:1). The depth of God’s love has no limits; He loves us so much that He made us His children when we accepted His Son. Being His sons and daughters elevates us from the world’s spiritual and moral decay and allows us to live in righteousness and love.

“So you have not received a spirit that makes you fearful slaves. Instead, you received God’s Spirit when he adopted you as his own children. Now we call him, ‘Abba, Father’” (Romans 8:15, NLT).
Religion has taught us to fear God’s wrath when we sin or make a mistake. However, under the covenant of grace that we’re living under now, He picks us up when we fall, loves on us, and encourages us like an earthly father does with his children.

“Neither do men put new wine into old bottles: else the bottles break, and the wine runneth out, and the bottles perish: but they put new wine into new bottles, and both are preserved” (Matthew 9:17).
“Neither do men put new wine into old bottles: else the bottles break, and the wine runneth out, and the bottles perish: but they put new wine into new bottles, and both are preserved” (Matthew 9:17).

“So, as the Holy Spirit says: ‘Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts…’” (Hebrews 3:7, 8, NIV).
God is always speaking His love and grace over us, but not everyone hears Him. A hardened heart and a seared conscience are the eventual result of sin-consciousness, and it causes spiritual deafness.
April 9
“I am writing to you who are mature in the faith because you know Christ, who existed from the beginning…I have written to you who are God’s children because you know the Father…” (1 John 2:13, 14, NLT).
God is all about relationships. Accepting Jesus and becoming born again allows us to enter a relationship that elevates us to being members of God’s family; this is no small thing.
April 8
“I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in his holy people” (Ephesians 1:18, NIV).
As believers, we’ve received spiritual vision that goes beyond seeing with our physical eyes. This kind of insight and wisdom comes from God and springs from our hearts.
April 7
“For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father” (Romans 8:15).
Grace has radically changed our relationship with God. In the Old Testament, He was a judge who punished people for their sins and wrongdoing; in the New Testament, He is no longer a judge but a loving Father who wants to be part of our everyday lives.
April 6
“Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need” (Hebrews 4:16).
Under the law, God was distant and unapproachable. Under grace, it’s the exact opposite; God invites us into His presence so He can show us mercy and help us when we’re struggling.
April 5
“By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh” (Hebrews 10:20).
Doing the same old things that religious traditions teach us gives us sub-par results in life and prevents us from enjoying God’s best. There’s no reason to get stuck living according to the old way when the new and living way through Christ is now available to us.

“In fact, according to the law of Moses, nearly everything was purified with blood. For without the shedding of blood, there is no forgiveness” (Hebrews 9:22, NLT).
We all make mistakes, but religion has taught us to beat ourselves up over them and condemn ourselves. The beauty of living under grace instead of under the law is that Jesus shed His blood to make God’s forgiveness available to us; we can therefore forgive ourselves.
