1 Corinthians 15:58
"Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye steadfast, unmovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labor is not in vain in the Lord."
To the beloved who know they are loved without any expectations, love is unmovable. Nothing moves the love of God away from Him. The Bible says in Roman 5:8 “But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.”
For the purpose of this devotional today, let us refer to the NIV; same Bible passage says. “But God demonstrates His own love for us, in this, while we were still sinners Christ died for us”
The word that stands out is “demonstrates” as against “commendeth”. Demonstration is a show of proof, but commendation is an act of proof. Same meaning, but slightly different sense.
For love to be meaningful, it has to be demonstrated as unmovable. Love not demonstrated is nothing but fakery. Love that is unmovable can never ever be in vain. It will be rewarded at the end. Show your love practically. Let it be seen. Clear and loud. As we continue into this year 2017, please remember every day to be Valentine’s Day. Praise God. Stay tuned for ” Always abounding love” Amen.
