Knowing Him Daily

17.May.2025

God’s love isn’t a passive emotion, it’s a divine force that transforms everything it touches. When we truly receive His love, it rewrites our identity, heals our past, and empowers us to live with purpose and boldness. But this love also calls us into action. It is not just something we bask in; it’s something we respond to. Love is the foundation, but responsibility is the structure we build upon it.

Many believers are waiting for God to change their circumstances, while God is waiting for them to stand in the authority He already gave them. His love gave us Jesus; Jesus gave us power. Now it’s our turn to take up our cross, renew our minds, and enforce the victory already won.

“Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you.” ~ Luke 10:19 (NKJV) ~

This authority isn’t based on our feelings or our worthiness; it’s based on our position in Christ. God’s love seated us with Christ in heavenly places (Ephesians 2:6), but it is our responsibility to rise up and walk in that truth. It’s not enough to know we’re loved, we must live like we’re empowered.

“The love of God is not just comfort; it’s commissioning. It doesn’t just hold you, it sends you. ~ Unknown ~

Too many believers are living beneath their authority because they’ve misunderstood love as mere comfort rather than empowerment. But God’s love is fierce. It doesn’t just wipe our tears, it trains our hands for battle. It doesn’t just rescue us, it positions us to rescue others. Love like that demands a response. It changes everything, and then it asks us to change something.

“Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.” ~ James 4:7 (NKJV) ~

Submitting to God means aligning our choices, thoughts, and actions with His Word. It means taking personal responsibility to stand against lies, discouragement, and compromise. Resisting the devil is not God’s job, it’s ours. He already defeated the enemy; now He empowers us to enforce that defeat.

You are not powerless. You are not a victim. You are loved, radically, relentlessly, eternally, and that love has transformed you into a warrior. Rise up. Speak truth. Take your authority. And walk in the power of the One who called you….

Because God’s love changes everything.

If you have not committed your life to Jesus, or you have walked away from Him doing your own thing, I invite you to come back to Him today.

~ Dear Heavenly Father ~

Thank You for sending Jesus to die on the Cross just for me. I admit that I have sinned, and I repent. I ask You to forgive me. I believe that He died and rose again. Right now, I make Him the Lord of my life. Fill me with Your Holy Spirit. My sins are washed away, my past is forgiven, and my future is bright. Thank you for saving me. In Jesus’ Name Amen.

Make today count and see you tomorrow.
