Ephesians 3:14-19 For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man;
That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith;

That ye, being rooted and grounded in love, May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length,
and depth, and height; And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with
all the fulness of God.

DAY 22Living Out of the Resources of God's Love

The admonition from Paul is that we learn to walk in Love—that is to live a life motivated by Love, continually.Not only are we to live out of the resources of God’s Love, we are to follow the example of Love the Lord Jesus poured out of Himself for others.

  • I John 4:9-11In this was manifested the Love of God toward us, because that God sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through Him. Herein is Love, not that we Loved God, but that He Loved us, and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins. Beloved, if God so Loved us, we ought also to Love one another. NIrVHow did God show His Love for us? He sent His one and only Son into the world. He sent Him so we could receive Life through Him. What is Love? It is not that we Loved God. It is that He Loved us and sent His Son to give His life to pay for our sins. Dear friends, since God Loved us that much, we should also Love one another.
  • Ephesians 5:1,2Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear children; and walk in Love, as Christ also hath Loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet smelling savour. NIrVYe are the children that God dearly Loves. So be just like Him. Lead a life of Love, just as Christ did. He Loved us. He gave Himself up for us. He was a sweet smelling offering and sacrifice to God.

    DEAR LORD, there couldn’t be anything any more clear from Your Word. We are to Love one another. I haven’t always succeeded in this. So now I know, the only way I can succeed is by letting You Love through me.I give myself over to Your Love. Please let it become an active force in my life.
    And that, all for Your glory.

We hear again the two greatest commandments.—Matt 22:36-40
