1 Peter 4:8 And above all things have fervent love for one another, for “love will cover a multitude of sins.”

I think one of the biggest things about loving one another is the ability to forgive each others sins without forgiveness being asked for.

Being able to accept someone else is going to get things wrong and will annoy you or hurt you unintentionally is a sign of that love toward each other.

Being able to forgive means being able to put something aside and not recalling it just at the right time when you need to get your own back!

Forgiveness should be total and absolute. God’s forgiveness goes without end!

1 Peter 4:6 For this reason the gospel was preached also to those who are dead, that they might be judged according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit.

This does not mean we have to go stand in graveyards and preach to the graves! This means we have to preach to the people who do not yet know Christ.

Christ will judge every person when the time comes, but unless they have had some Gospel message told them, they may find excuse not to be guilty.

Some criminals get found ‘not guilty’ because they find excuse by one way or another to not be charged; but this will not happen with Christ.

He will ensure every person gets to hear about God, Christ and the Holy Spirit before it is too late!

Luke 19:38 saying: “ ‘Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord!’ Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!”

When Jesus made His entry back into Jerusalem, it was purposeful and deliberate.

What are you like when you go about sharing God’s Word with others or showing people you are a Christian?

We need to be deliberate and purposeful with our actions in promoting Christ because that is the way people will take notice of our actions.

Don’t just be quiet and live with Christ; make a stand and live for Him as well!

Psalm 27:8 When You said, “Seek My face,” My heart said to You, “Your face, Lord, I will seek.”

What do you do when God calls you to seek His face? Yes He is calling you to seek His face right now!

We need to try to get to know Christ in a personal and familiar way and not just at the other end of a book we have read.

Christ may have come to save us thousands of years ago but we still need to get to know Him as best we can.

Getting up close and personal with someone will allow you to know them a whole lot better than trying to read up about them. Pray to and wait on God constantly.
