Paul is asking the church, the believers, to pray for him by Jesus Christ and by the love of the spirit.

I want you to put this in your spirit. Now, he does not use the love of God. He used by the love of the spirit. Why? Because the love of God, and this is key number one, really the only key. The love of God is only experienced through the inner working and power of the Holy Spirit. And that’s why when he asked the church in Rome to pray with him and for him, it’s by the grace of Jesus Christ and by the love of the spirit.

Other translations say by the love that the Holy Spirit gives you, the Holy Spirit works in you, the Holy Spirit pours in your heart. Okay? I want you to put this in your spirit because maybe you’re going through something. Maybe you have felt like, “Man, I love God, but I don’t know how much God loves me. How am I going to know this love, and feel this love, and be able to really tangibly experientially experience this love, this miraculous love of God?”

The key is by the Holy Spirit. So you cannot separate the love of God, the work of God’s love and the love of God from the Holy Spirit, because the Holy Spirit, put this in your spirit, is the applicator, is the manifest is the distributor, the supplier.

Okay? Each time we are asking for His love, we are reaching out to God for love, do you know who supplies the love? The Holy Spirit. And Paul is acknowledging. Paul knows this. And he says, “By the love that the spirit will give to you.” So it means even true in intercession, for us to be truly in intercessors is the work of the Holy Spirit that is rooted in the love of God, the love that God gives you, the love that God works in you, dear friend.

And so if we are going to really know the love of God and be able to do the things that the love of God is going to energize, and empower, and anoint us to do, we really need to know how to experience this love on a daily basis to grow in this love as we’re going to find out here.

I love that. He says we feel this warm love everywhere. You are experiencing. It’s not just intellectual knowledge that many believers have, but we can feel the love of God. We can be fascinated and exhilarated by the love of God because we feel it within us.

We feel it in our hearts and then it overflows into our being and every part of us. He says, “We can feel it everywhere within us because God has given us the Holy Spirit” Listen to this key, “Who fills our hearts with His love.” How does God feel you?

Because the Holy Spirit is going to fill you with the love of God. He’s going to experience, to unlock, and reveal, and manifest and pour it out to you and he’s going to dump it on to you and all of a sudden all selfishness and all this sense of, you know, like you’re an orphan, you don’t belong, and low self-esteem, and the poor self-image that most of us have all of a sudden it dissipates.

It’s dissolved. Why? Because now you are being filled and you know from within that you are loved by the most important person that authored love. You are known, you are loved, and from that moment, you have that true sense of belonging because the spirit of God has shed abroad.

Another version says the King James that the spirit of God has shed abroad the love of God in your heart, in my heart. I remember when God first called me into the ministry. There are many places, many villages that I had to walk miles upon miles to go preach to these people.

You know, in my natural me, I didn’t want to do that. I don’t want to pay that price. I don’t want to do all those things. Why walk 20 miles, go to preach people I’ve never met? I don’t know them. I don’t know who they… Why should I care?” The love of God touched me, 1986. It melted my heart for the lost.

It melted my heart for people who did not know Jesus. From that moment on, dear friend… I was 14 years old. From that moment, it did not matter. I was fascinated and my mission was to take the gospel to anybody, every family, anywhere that, you know… Even at school, I preached, you know, and revivals broke out for some of you that have read my book, “Working the Works of God.”

And other more testimonies on in my new book, “Catch and Release God’s Supernatural.” All are results of God’s love. And I remember back when God spoke to me and He said, “Andrew, that miracles are proof of my love.” Now, I want you to put this in your spirit. God’s miracles, they are proof of His love. Okay? How come?

Because God has done everything by His love, through love, through His son, Jesus Christ, so you can have a new life. John 10:10 tells us that

It’s not only the spiritual life, but it’s the Zoe, it’s the all-encompassing life, it’s the life of God, life that Jesus gives by the Spirit. How do we experience that? Through the inner working of the spirit of God working in us. Okay, dear friend.

So, because of that love, this is how we experience love, okay? By the Spirit shedding abroad in our hearts the love of God. So you don’t need to be crying, and wailing, and weeping, and begging God for love. He has given you the Holy Spirit. And if you don’t know Jesus and you don’t know this love, today you’re going to have an opportunity to know the author of love, the one who loves you so much that He’ll give Jesus in your name and in your place.

You know, a few weeks ago, my family and I are doing a Bible study at home through the Apologia Bible study book, you know, for children and my children, you know, they’re 5, 6, 9, and 10. You know, then as we are reading these next verses that we’re going to read here, they began to ask me, “But daddy, what does that mean, that God loves us so much and He gave His son and now because He loved us, you know, we know His love because of Jesus, now we ought to lay down our lives.”

They were perplexed by the fact that, “What does it mean? Are we supposed to die?” You know, like Jesus did. So I had to explain to them,

So this love transforms us. We go through a love transformation from the people we were, from the selfish kind of, you know, self-centered, self-seeking people to people that have God’s heart now because now the Holy Spirit who lives in us is continuously consistently, you know, baptizing us, infusing us, immersing us, saturating us, and releasing a fresh and a new like Paul tells us that we can actually even feel it everywhere within us the love of God.

Okay? And so we go through this love transformation. First John Chapter 4 verse 17 from the NIV says, “This is how love is made complete.” This is how. “Among us so that we will have confidence on the Day of Judgment. We will not be ashamed.”

If Jesus showed up right now, we are prepared. We are not ashamed on the Day of Judgment. But listen to this. “In this world, we are like Jesus.” Another version says that, “As Jesus is, so are we in this world.” Okay. So Jesus’ mission, and this is the mission of the church.

This is the mission of Christianity, really is to be… We are loved by God so we can love the world. You know, that’s why, you know, I’m preaching the gospel to you tonight, it’s because God has loved me and I love you. And He sends me to love you. He sends me to share the gospel, to broadcast it everywhere, to tell others about this miraculous love that you and I can experience at any time.

You know, you don’t have to pay for it. You don’t have to do anything. You don’t have to do any ritual. There is no price to you. What it requires is your faith in Jesus Christ. Okay? So this love transforms us.

The Bible just told us that as Jesus is, so are we. How can we become like Jesus? Dear friend, it is simple but profound, by the Holy Spirit, by the mighty working of the Spirit of God.

We can look to the Holy Spirit. We can ask the Holy Spirit day in and day out to help us, to revive us, to renew us, to equip us, to shed abroad the love of God. Every moment you feel like you are not as close as to God as you should be lean to the Holy Spirit because he’s there to really bring Jesus into your life and it into your world and make him real, make him tangible to you, make him really visible to you, so to speak, in every aspect of our lives.

You know, that’s what the Holy Spirit is here to do. He’s here to glorify Jesus. So the love transformation that we go through transforms us into the image of Jesus Christ. So we can act like him. We can talk like him. We can love like him. And I’m telling you, if we’ll cast ourselves upon the Holy Spirit to equip us, transform us, change our lives, we can be lovers of God, but also true lovers of people.

God loves people. Everything that God did even with creation is because He loved us. He created everything and then He made man in His own image after His own likeness. And what did He say? He said, “Everything is good.” And He said, “Man, now you are in charge. I want you to enjoy it.” Because He loves people.

He’s not against people. He’s not against us. He’s for us. So my desire tonight is that you shift from struggle to success in your Christian work, in your life because there is one that loves you.

One that sticks closer than a brother, and his name is Jesus. So before I land this plane here, before I finish, I want to give you some application for this. Now, you know how you receive and experience the love of God? By the Spirit of God.

You know, so Jesus, his desire is that so as He is, so are you in this world and this love, it begins by loving God, okay? And then loving yourself correctly. You need to love yourself correctly. And if you don’t know, and if you… You cannot dislike yourself in one way or the other. Ask the Holy Spirit to do a work in your heart so you love yourself correctly and see yourself the way God sees you so you can accept yourself who you are that you are perfect for God, you are perfect for Him, in Him.

You are perfect. Doesn’t matter where you were born. You know, doesn’t matter your background. Doesn’t matter where you are right now. He’s got a destiny. He’s got a plan for you and you are perfect, dear friend, for Him in His love because you’re crafted by the love of God. Okay?

And then this love, as it transforms you, it brings you to love your neighbors and love your world. Okay? Remember the story I told you about, you know, my study with my children at home, you know, this is the Scripture that we’re going to go through a few verses here that we read and they were like, “Wow.”

You know, in First John Chapter 4 verse 9, verse 8 and 9, and then we’re going to read 16 to 20 here before we go off the air here, before we are out of time here.

Did you hear that?

That if a person is not loving, is not kind, he does not know God because God is love. God showed how much He loved us by sending His only son into this wicked world to bring to us eternal life through his death. In this act, we see what real love is. It is not our love for God, but His love for us when He sent His son to satisfy God’s anger against our sins.

Dear friend, did you hear it? It wasn’t because we first loved God. It was because God loved us. Okay? Verse 16, “We know how much God loves us because we have felt His love.” You can feel the love of God. It’s not just enough to intellectually know the love of God. You can feel the love of God.

Verse 18,

You see, that’s why some people don’t know the love of God, because we are always afraid, you know, “Is God happy with me? Is God delighted with me?” You know, when somebody gets sick, you say, “Well maybe because I have sin in my life. Maybe God is not delighted with me.”

No. God is not going to put sickness on you to teach you something. I don’t believe that. You know, sickness, the Bible tells me, is of the devil, you know? But God will help us through our infirmities. He will be with us, okay? He will be with us through trials and tribulation.

You know, His love is for us. His love is there to bring us into the image of Jesus Christ. “It is for fear of what He might do to us and shows that we are not fully convinced that He really loves us. So you see, our love for Him comes as a result of His loving us first.”

Verse 20,

Dear friend, that’s why this love transformation takes you now from you being me-centered to outward-centered where you’re loving God and you’re loving yourself and now you are loving the world around you. You’re praying for your world and you’re giving into the ministry of Jesus Christ so that the gospel of Jesus Christ will go forth.

As a matter of fact, you know, before I finish this broadcast, you know, I’m going to ask you to ask God to work a work in your heart so you can, you know, give into the spreading of the gospel even through this ministry. You can, you know, partner with us.

You can just pray for us. We want to hear from you that you’re praying for us and that you have been motivated by the love of God to give because you want to give not because, you know, you are coerced into giving, not because you are coerced into praying, but because your love for the souls, your love for people to hear a message like this around the world, you are being touched by the love of God.

Amen. And so there is information on your screen. You know, write to us, what, you know, we would love to hear your prayer request. We would love to pray for you. Send us your prayer request. Go on our website, you know, partner with us and give into this ministry to continue spreading this love. We are all about sharing the gospel of redemption, telling people what Christ has done in their name and in their place.

And we invite you to be a part of that. Okay? If we see people in the world without Christ and we do nothing, we don’t have love, but if we do something, we have love. So before I finish, I want to invite you, you who’s watching, and you do not know Jesus as your Lord and savior. The Bible says in Romans Chapter 10 verse 9 and 10,

It’s by when you believe in your heart, you become right with God, and when you confess with your mouth that you are saved. So would you pray this prayer with me today?

Say, dear Lord, Jesus. I believe that you are the son of God. I believe that God rose you from the dead. I confess with my mouth that I’m yours. I am a sinner. And I receive your finished work on the cross that you did in my name and in my place. Today I invite you into my heart. Forgive my sins. Wash me with your blood. Fill me with your Holy Spirit so that I may do your will. I am yours. I am saved from today going forward. Thank you, Jesus.

Dear friend, if you have prayed that prayer, you have invited and received Christ into your life. Go to our website, write to us, we would love to hear your story. And tell somebody about your decision and find a Bible-believing church and get plugged in.
