1 John 4:18 Flashcards
1 John 4:18 (NRSV)
“[18] There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear; for fear has to do with punishment, and whoever fears has not reached perfection in love.”
The perfect love of God in us can destroy fear and every work of the devil. Why? Because I am still operating in love and I do not have any emotions or anything. I believe in the love of God and I stand on what God says. That’s the understanding of God’s love. No emotion. No feeling. Only what God says and you keep speaking love and love and that is what you want to see. Keep speaking blessings and love upon A, saying, “Thank you Jesus, A is full of love and I am in love with A.”
1 John 1:9 (NRSV)
“[9] If we confess our sins, he who is faithful and just will forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.”
You need to confess every morning, every single day when you know that you are in guilt and shame. If you feel bad about anything confess 1 John 1:9.
You open your mouth and say, “God, forgive me my sins in my thoughts, words, and actions.” We don’t realise it but thoughts are always coming to us. Every single moment and every day we are falling.
