HOW TO GROW IN THE LOVE OF CHRIST

                                 HOW TO GROW IN THE LOVE OF CHRIST

By now you may be saying, “What can I do? I do not  have that kind of love for the Lord yet. I want to, but I am not quite there.”

 Let me help you. Know that He is right there with you, knocking at the door of your heart, longing to come in (see Revelation 3:20). The only problem is that you do not know how to come into the experience of His Presence. You do not know how to open the door.

 To help you discover where the blockage may be, sit down and ask the Holy Spirit to lead you through the following questions. Just sit quietly and concentrate on His love that how much he loved you, suffered stripes on His bodies, crowed with the crown of thorns, smitten with reed on His Head, blood came out of His head, Soldiers spat over on HIM, taken to cross and He was nailed on the cross by nailing on His hands and feet. This all He did because He loves you and ask your selves the following questions: -  

1.Do I really crave and desire His Presence more than anything else in the world, no matter where I am or what the circumstances are?

2.Do I take the time each day to meet with Him, to spend time with Him, time when I am not begging for anything or dictating to Him but just being still before Him in adoration and worship?

3.Do I raise my voice to Him, singing to Him in my heart, praising and thanking Him continually, or do I withhold it because I am afraid?

4.When He asks me to do something, what is my response, and how quick is it?

5.Am I totally willing to relinquish my fears (which I have become so accustomed to), so that I might dwell quietly in His peace?

6.Do I get so caught up in the cares and works of this world that I postpone devoting myself to a relationship with Him?

7.Does He mean more to me than my reputation, the opinions of others, my family, my possessions, or my ambitions, even my ambitions for Him?

8.How much does obedience to Him mean to me? Have I completely given Him my will? What price am I willing to pay?

9. Do I have some vows which I have not fulfilled?

Whatever that price is, please do not be afraid. Make up your mind now that you are willing to pay it. Then you can face anything in your life.

I have done it and doing it , when I do tears come out of my eyes , such is His love.
