Love Forgives

"You have heard that it has been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth:
But I say unto you, That you resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on your right cheek, turn to him the other also.
And if any man will she you at the law, and take away your coat, let him have your close also.
And whatsoever shall compel you to go a mile, go with him twain.
Give to him that asks you, and from him that would borrow of you turn not away.
You have heard that it has been said, You shall love your neighbor, and hate your enemy.
But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to then that hate you, and pray for them which despite fully use you, and persecute you;
That you may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he makes his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sends the rain on the just and the unjust.
For if you love them which love you, what reward do you have? Anyone can do that. Even the tax collectors.
Be perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect."
(Matthew 5:38-58)

This whole message that Jesus spoke here... Is a powerful roar of a mighty lion... A King. This is what Jesus wants. He wants us to be transformed from religious and self-centered to free and loving the way Jesus does.

Jesus wasn't literally telling us to be perfect. If that's what you thought, you were misunderstood. You see, no one can be perfect. Only Jesus is... Because He is God in flesh. The ONLY perfect flesh which made the ultimate sacrifice for our sins.
No one is perfect. Jesus is calling us to be like Him and love perfectly.

Love Perfectly? Loving perfectly means to love like Jesus loves us. The kind of Love that has NO LIMITS. Jesus isn't limited by our sin. No matter what it is that we have done against Him, He still loves us selflessly. Nothing and no one can stop that.

So no matter what anyone does against you, love them. It's easy to do that when we seek Jesus and realize how much we have all been died for... we ALL have done wrong... we all have hurt Jesus.. We ALL slaughtered our King. Some people may not want to hear that, but it is true. Apostle Paul wrote: "As it is written, There is none that are righteous, no, not one:" (Romans 3:10) So we are ALL in need of His Love, His mercy, and His grace.

We ALL have some things in common: we ALL have done wrong and WE ALL NEED JESUS.

JESUS, thank You... For Your mercy, Your grace, Your Love... And Your forgiveness, Jesus. You are calling us to LOVE perfectly like this. We have all like sheep gone astray... Show us how to Love like You Love JESUS. I plead the blood of JESUS CHRIST over every reader and myself in the name of JESUS CHRIST! Open our eyes, God, to what You want us to be wide awake to. JESUS, I know that it is Your strong desire to heal broken relationships or any lives lacking YOUR LOVE, MERCH, AND GRACE! Jesus, feed us Your Love and Word to strengthen us back to health, in Your blood sacrifice. I REALIZE YOUR BLOOD IS WHAT HEALS US! I REBUKE THE ENEMIES THAT ARE SET TO DESTROY US, OUR LIVES AND DESTINIES, AND FAMILY IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST! I send angels to protect and minister to us all in Jesus name! AMEN!


"Ask, and it shall be given you; seek and you shall find; knock, and it shall be opened to you.
For every one that asks receives; and he that seeks finds; and to him that knocks it shall be opened."
(Matthew 7:7-8)
