Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal. -1 Corinthians 13:1


Good morning and God bless you. 

In the 1980s’ Tina Turner released a song which now is legendary, a hit song which has bridged several generations. The song was, “What’s love got to do with it?”


I hummed along with the best of them belting out verse after verse. I thought of that long ago song and it’s resiliency and it then hit me how this song is so contrary to the word of God found in the scripture above. 


How confusing it must be to people who relegate love to a second hand emotion. How disheartening when lust and love are placed on their scales and are weighed equally? And simply wow, when your own direction takes precedence over love?


The scripture clearly defines love as the primary principle, John 3:16 tells us it was love that kept Christ on the cross and His love that has kept us. 


You may preach like Bishop GE Patterson, sing like Pastor Donnie McClurkin or prophesy like Prophet Brian Carne, but if you don’t love others, what good is it to gain the world but because of not loving you lose your soul? 


Further your just sharing your talent is not love as most likely it is shared out of vanity. 


So with that said I can answer that question posed long ago and propelled forth by the enemy like the ousting of prayer in school, what does love have to do with it; everything, simply everything God is love and God commanded His love and God so loved...

And I prayed unto the LORD my God, and made my confession, and said, O Lord, the great and dreadful God, keeping the covenant and mercy to them that love him, and to them that keep his commandments;   We have sinned, and have committed iniquity, and have done wickedly, and have rebelled, even by departing from thy precepts and from thy judgments:                   -Daniel 9:4-5 Good morning and TGIF!    Daniel the prophet offers a vital lesson on humility in these scriptures. He draws a parallel between David’s prayer (Ps 51), where David acknowledges not only his own sins but also the sins of those who came before him. Many people either deny being affected by their ancestors' sins or are quick to highlight the faults of others while conveniently overlooking their own.  In verse 4, Daniel first confesses his own sins, whether they were committed intentionally or unintentionally. Then in verse 5, he acknowledges the s...

  And the king said unto Araunah, Nay; but I will surely buy it of thee at a price: neither will I offer burnt offerings unto the LORD my God of that which doth cost me nothing. So David bought the threshingfloor and the oxen for fifty shekels of silver. -2 Samuel 24:24 Good morning and terrific Thursday to you!  The passage referenced tells the story of David trying to halt a plague in Israel—a plague that had come as a result of his own disobedience. To stop it, an act of obedience was required. Following the instructions given through the prophet, David sought a place to offer a sacrifice. He arrived at the threshing floor of Araunah, where the angel had ceased his destruction, intending to build an altar there. Araunah, upon learning of the king’s purpose, generously offered the space and everything needed for the sacrifice at no cost.  However, David declined the offer, as he understood a profound truth that many overlook: the principle of sacrifice is that it must c...

  For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. -John 3:17 Good morning and happy Monday to you!  The Lord Jesus came to this world not to condemn us, but to show us what true righteousness is. His mission had multiple purposes, and I will highlight two of them. First, we needed an example of righteousness—someone conceived without sin and who lived a sinless life. Next, because of His immaculate conception and sinless existence, He was qualified to be sacrificed. This requirement was too great for sinful man to fulfill. The grace it took for Him to come into this world and to die for it is truly amazing. #prayforthepeaceofIsrael God bless you and command your day!!! Your comments and questions are welcome.
