DO NOT HATE
“He that saith he is in the light, and hateth his brother, is in darkness even until now. He that loveth his brother abideth in the light, and there is none occasion of stumbling in him.” 1 John 2:9-11 KJV
“If anyone claims, “I am living in the light”, but hates a fellow believer, that person is still living in darkness. Anyone who loves a fellow believer is living in the light and does not cause others to stumble. But anyone who hates a fellow believer is still living and walking in darkness. Such a person does not know the way to go, having been blinded by the darkness” 1 John 2:9-11 NLT
“Anyone who claims to live in Gods light and hates a brother or sister is still in the darkness. It’s the person who loves his brother and sister who dwells in God’s light and doesn’t block the light from others. But whoever hates is still in the dark, stumbles around in the dark, and doesn’t know which end is up blinded by the darkness.” 1 John 2:9-11 MSG
BREAKING OFF DARK FORCES
Hate is a strong feeling of dislike and repulsion for something or someone. Our text puts it clear that hate is a dark force that makes people live blindly. A spiritually blind man is sure to end up in a spiritual, emotional and physical pit.
To break off the powers of dark forces, each of us must love his brother and sister. Love is the source of light, and practical love is the key to break the darkness from our lives and families.
You must love and not hate, bless and not curse, protect and not destroy, live in the light and not in the dark, pray for all your enemies and bless those who curse you. Be blessed as you practice a life of Love in Jesus Name – Amen.
FOOD FOR THE DAY
-Do I harbor hate in my life about people, objects and systems?
-If I still have hate, how can I break of from its power, knowing that it makes me blind?
-Is my life a light to others or do I cause others to walk in darkness as I do?
CONFESSION OF FAITH
Dear God, give me the grace to master my emotion and put hate in check in my life, help my life to be a light, help my love to be true, help me to live like an example to my world in Jesus Name – Amen.
