Today's Word

Word of the Day: This is the greatest gift of all...

What is the most important gift in the Bible? Is it prophecy, knowledge, wisdom, or faith? No! The greatest gift of all is love. The Bible says that God is love and that without love, we are nothing. Love transforms us and makes us more like Jesus. The Christian life should be a life of love.

If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing.

1 Corinthians 13:2

Any other gift you have been given should be used with love. If you use any other gift without caring for others, then you should go before God and ask Him for guidance, and to fill you with His Holy Spirit and His love.

God’s Love and Ours

7 Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. 8 Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love. 9 This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him.

1 John 4:7-9

Do you want to be effective in your service to God? Do you want to transform this world for the glory of God? Do you want your life to reflect that God is the center and the one who drives you? Fill your heart with the most important gift: fill your heart with the love of God.
