By Pastor Chris Oyakilome
By this shall all men know
that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another (John 13:35).
If you want to experience a
greater manifestation of the Spirit of God in your life, love is the way. Walk
in love. Love is the "more excellent way." The love of God in you can
be so palpable that it literally radiates through your eyes. There’s no telling
what the Lord can do in, and through, you when you radiate His love, so much so
that it’s seen in your eyes.
When I got a hold of this many
years ago, I became more conscious of what the Lord could do through me, with
my eyes burning with love. Once, I was invited to a conference where I had to
minister to the sick. I asked that they all be on a straight line. I didn’t
touch any of them; I only looked at them, knowing that as I stood there, Christ
was looking through my eyes. The demons couldn’t stay. Each one of them
received healing instantly, just by me looking at them.
Through the years, I’ve met
several of those who were healed in that very meeting, and they never forgot
it. They recalled how a look of love dispelled their infirmities, because
there’s something about us. There’s something that works through us. It’s the
power of God’s love.
Our eyes are windows of the
Spirit through which God looks at others with love. Treat people with
compassion; see them with the eyes of love. Let love be more than a topic to
you; let it be life. Relate to people in a way that they can see and feel your
love. People were attracted to Jesus, not just because He was a miracle worker,
but because they could see that He loved them. They felt His love, including
little children (Matthew 19:14). He was the revelation of God’s love. Make this
your testimony too. Let those around you see Jesus in your eyes. Let your love
be so strong that people are constantly drawn to you.
Prayer
Dear heavenly Father,
thank you for the working of your Word in my life, producing the result of what
it talks about. I have the nature of love because the love of God has been shed
abroad in my heart by the Holy Spirit. Love is a way of life for me; therefore,
I express love to my world today and always, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
