PASTOR PAUL ENENCHE’S SEEDS OF DESTINY DEVOTIONAL MESSAGE FOR 22ND DECEMBER 2024.
Lovelessness has been confirmed to be a major root of character deficiency or bankruptcy. Lovelessness was at the root of the first sin committed by man in the beginning.
In Genesis 3, the devil asked Eve a question:
“Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?” (Genesis 3:1)
Do you know what the devil was doing to Eve? He was planting a seed of hate against God in the heart of Eve. The devil was painting God as an unloving God to Eve. He portrayed God as one who did not mean well for her or have her interest at heart.
The devil seemed to have told Eve: “I want to let you know that God is not sincere with you. He is not the person you think He is. He said you should not eat of every tree of the garden. Is that supposed to be so?”
Then Eve replied, “…but of the fruit of the tree in the midst of the garden, God hath said, ‘You shall not eat of it, neither shall you touch it, lest you die.’” (Genesis 3:3).
The devil went further to tell her something like: “That is not true. You shall not surely die. God is lying. God is hiding something from you. He knows that the day you eat the fruit, you will become like Him, and He does not want anybody to be like Him. That is the reason He doesn’t want you to eat it. If you doubt what I am telling you, eat it and see.” (Genesis 3:4-5 paraphrased). And when Eve was convinced and believed the serpent, she ate the fruit.
You see, hatred or lovelessness was the root of man’s first disobedience and rebellion against God. Lovelessness is the foundation of character bankruptcy. When you are loveless, you create a conducive environment for other forms of sin to breed.
Beloved, that is why when you are bankrupt in godly character, the first place to check is your love life. This is because when your love is intact, it overflows in godly character.
Remember this: When you are bankrupt in godly character, the first place to check is your love life.
ASSIGNMENT:
1. Ask God to uproot from your life every seed of hate the devil or his agents may have planted in your heart.
2. Take drastic practical actions to deal with every root of bitterness so you can experience love and overflow in godly character.
PRAYER: Lord, I ask that You uproot every seed of bitterness and hatred from my life. I receive the grace to flow in love so I can overflow in godly character, Lord, in Jesus’ Name.
FOR FURTHER UNDERSTANDING, GET THIS MESSAGE: LOVE: THE FOUNDATION OF GODLY CHARACTER (PT 2).
QUOTE: There is something called CHARACTER CAPITAL, which is superior to any other form of capital on earth, including money. Someone with a character capital has a future, even if he does not have money.
Culled from the book, “21 Foolish Things People Do” by Dr Paul Enenche.
DAILY READING: 1 John 1-3.
AMAZING FACT: Lions maintain strong social bonds through grooming, which also keeps their fur clean.
PROPHETIC WORD (DECLARATION):
Father, I ask for deliverance from the plague of lovelessness, LORD, in Jesus’ Name.
