TOPIC: Love Your Neighbours As Yourself (Mountain of Fire and Miracle Ministries Tuesday, 8 May 2018)
FIRE SCRIPTURE: Matthew 22:36-40
MEMORY VERSE:
“Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets.” – Matthew 7:12
The MESSAGE:
What does it mean to show love to your neighbour? It means to treat them in ways you want others to treat you. The problem with this is that people have little self-worth for themselves. Besides, many people do not know how they are meant to be treated. Some people also lack self-respect for themselves. If you do not know how to treat yourself right, you will not know how to treat your neighbours right.
The Bible encourages us to treat our neighbours right because this is what God expects from us (Zechariah 8:17). God wants us to love Him but before we can achieve that, we have to love our neighbours (1 John 4:20). If we cannot love our neighbours whom we see with both eyes, how can we claim to love God who we cannot see?
I heard of a man who would receive his salary and go to dump it at the feet of his pastor, until the pastor came visiting one day and saw his family in penury. He had to return the monies he had collected from the man and encouraged him to take care of his family better.
Which neighbours of yours have you treated badly? Locate them today as you read these words and plead for their forgiveness. By doing this, you will ensure a place for yourself in Heaven.

YOU CANNOT GIVE WHAT YOU DO NOT HAVE, THEREFORE SEEK LOVE THAT YOU MIGHT GET IT AND GIVE.
