The Word of Grace
At our Holy Communion Service, themed Communion for Winning Wisdom, our Senior Pastor, Pastor Femi Paul, delivered a profound message titled "Love – The Essence of God!" Opening with Lamentations 3:22–23 and 1 John 4:7–8, we were reminded that love is not merely one of God's attributes; it is His very essence. Pastor Femi described essence as the fundamental nature that defines a person's identity, making the powerful truth unmistakable: if God is love, then love is the truest expression of who He is. Every act of His mercy, compassion, faithfulness, and loving kindness flows from this unchanging nature and is renewed toward us every morning. Building on this foundation, Pastor Femi challenged us to move beyond simply knowing about God's love to intentionally reflecting it. As God's children, we are called to imitate Him by living lives marked by kindness, sincerity, generosity, and sacrificial love. The world will recognise Christ's disciples not by eloquent words or religious activity, but by love that is visible in our actions. The charge was both simple and searching: love is not merely something we profess, but something we practise. As we continue to behold Christ, may His extravagant love become the pattern for our own lives because to know God is to learn to love like that. Confession: Lord, thank You for loving me with an everlasting and unfailing love. As I behold Your heart, transform mine to reflect Your nature. Teach me to love sincerely, serve selflessly, forgive freely, and honour others through my words and actions. May my life continually reveal that I belong to You because I have learned to love like You. Amen.
