As you listen to the Word, get ready to receive
Even creative inspired ideas spring through hearing the Word and prosper you

The Outworking of Love

Grace supersede everything

Those who love best loved best.
If you are having the time you both are not on speaking terms, focus on Christ. See Him loves is and shines on us.
Romans 7:4-6
Likewise, my brothers, you also have died to the law through the body of Christ, so that you may belong to another, to him who has been raised from the dead, in order that we may bear fruit for God. For while we were living in the flesh, our sinful passions, aroused by the law, were at work in our members to bear fruit for death. But now we are released from the law, having died to that which held us captive, so that we serve in the new way of the Spirit and not in the old way of the written code.
It is really no fun been married to someone who is “always right”
Therein lies the problem

For what the law could not do in that it was weak through the flesh, God did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, on account of sin: He condemned sin in the flesh, that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.
God has condemned sin in the flesh
Fulfilled in us
Notice “in us”
The difference between fulfilled “in you”
And fulfilled “by you”
The righteous requirement of the law fulfilled in us and not by us
Romans 7:4-6
Likewise, my brothers, you also have died to the law through the body of Christ, so that you may belong to another, to him who has been raised from the dead, in order that we may bear fruit for God. For while we were living in the flesh, our sinful passions, aroused by the law, were at work in our members to bear fruit for death. But now we are released from the law, having died to that which held us captive, so that we serve in the new way of the Spirit and not in the old way of the written code.
“But now we have been released from the law, for we died to it and are no longer captive to its power. Now we can serve God, not in the old way of obeying the letter of the law, but in the new way of living in the Spirit.”

We see more manifestations of healing, prophesy, signs and wonders when we pray in tongues
Every tongues prophesied and every man dream dreams

Acts 2:1
And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.
Acts 2:4
And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.
Utterance – is the Spirit that gave.

In heaven’s perspective it is elevated discourse
When we pray in tongues, we are not praying selfish prayers
Before the breakthrough comes, there is something so deliberating as we release the flow of praying in tongues
The moment we are born again we have the Holy Spirit. Never doubt that.
Baptise in the Holy Spirit
Let the Lord take you and immerse in the Holy Spirit
