THE EFFECT OF NOT WALKING IN LOVE ON YOUR HEALTH
Failing to walk in love with other
believer or anyone for that matter can affect your health. Lack of love will
degenerate to bitterness and bitterness defiles the body and destroys health..
Heb.12:14-15
Heb 12:14-15
14 Follow peace with all men,
and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord: 15 Looking diligently lest any
man fail of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble
you, and thereby many be defiled;
A. If
you are going to walk in Divine Health, you will have to
walk in God’s Love. If your faith is going to work and be
effectual, you will have to put the God-kind of love to work so God’s love can
be effectual, Galatians 5:6 says, “For in Jesus
Christ neither circumcision availeth anything, nor uncircumcision; but faith
which worketh by love”.
It takes you walking in love towards others for your faith to be
productive.
Over a period of many years, Dr.
Kenneth Hagin said, “Some people told me that when they forgave the person that
offended them, their long standing sickness disappeared. Papa Hagin also said there was a woman who was
very sick and had gone everywhere for healing, but all to no avail. All of a
sudden, she realized that before she could get into the healing line, she
needed to reconcile with her brother she had been quarreling with for the past
twenty-five years. She called her
brother on the phone and settled the issue.
That very day, her long standing sickness rolled away mysteriously.
B. The
laws and the Prophets are resting on the dictates of love for
people’s liberation. Matthew 22:37-40
Matt 22:37-40
37 Jesus said unto him, Thou
shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with
all thy mind. 38 This is the first and great
commandment. 39 And the second is like unto
it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. 40 On these two commandments
hang all the law and the prophets.
C. It
takes love for the Lord to manifest in the life of the believer.
John 14:21
John 14:21
21 He that hath my commandments,
and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved
of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.
D. Harmful
effects of Animosity - Leads to sickness. The
testimony of Kenneth Hagin, talking about the
Pastor that had grudges against another
Pastor that came to plant Church in the same town with him.
