John 14:15-16 NKJV
"If you love Me, keep My commandments. And I will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may abide with you forever

THE COMMANDMENT OF THE LORD

In this portion of scripture, Jesus is telling his disciples that they have to keep His commandments then by that is when He will ask God the Father to send them the helper, that will abide with them forever.

Mark 12:30 - 31 And you shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.' This is the first commandment. And the second, like it, is this: "You shall love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no other commandment greater than these."

There are many commandments that were given to the children of Israel but then we see Jesus Christ The Son of God enlightening us in this part of scripture that there is no other commandment greater than these that are speaking about the Love of God. Hallelujah

This literally bringing it up that when you have the Love of God within you, you have encompassed all the other commandments within these. 

This was because the law/commandments alone could not bring man to salvation so God opted for the law of love that speaks to men regardless of there position in the spirit

This is how the Gentiles get into this commonwealth of Israel because of how God's love is reckless; he does not consider any consequences of his actions regarding to his own safety, comfort or wellbeing.

NUGGET
This reckless love is the person of God that we have been called to as the greatest commandment from the Lord. All you need to do is to accept, believe and yield to the person of the Holy Spirit to lead you through all it's manifold facets. Hallelujah

Mark 12:30-31[KJV]

PRAYER
Loving Father I thank you for your Word of your commandment. I thank you because I'm a loving child having your Spirit within me. in the mighty Name of Jesus Christ. AMEN

POWER OVER SIN

ELGON MISSION TEAM ~ DAILY DEVOTION Bible study department Sunday 16th June,2024 Galatians 5:24 (TLB) Those who belong to be Christ have nailed their natural evil desires to his cross and crucified them there.   POWER OVER SIN The strength for our conquering and our victory is drawn continually from Christ. The Bible does not teach that sin is completely eradicated from the Christian in this life, but it does teach that sin shall no longer reign over you.  The strength and power of sin have been broken. The Christian now has resources available to live above and beyond this world. The Bible teaches that whosoever is born of God does not practice sin. It is like the little girl who said that when the devil came knocking with a temptation, she just sent Jesus to the door.

Necessity Of Fasting

ELGON MISSION TEAM ~ DAILY DEVOTIONS Bible study department Thursday 13th June 2024 Mathew 17:21 (kJV)   "How beit this kind goeth not out but by prayer and fasting." NECESSITY OF FASTING In the book of Mathew 9:14-15,we realize that the groom left only when he spent 3 days in the grave. We all believe in His resurrection and the bible clearly tells us that when we received Him He begun to dwell in us, in other words the bridegroom is with us still. So why then do we fast?? Many christians have it on their minds that it's because they fast that they receive results simply because they received results after some serious days, weeks, months, or even years of fasting, this is a very inconsistent way to go about fasting because if you think that what Jesus did on the cross is not enough, then how much more is your fasting insufficient?? , you can't help God by fasting. Apostle Paul wrote in 1 Corinthians 9:27(AMP) ".........but like a boxer, I buffett my...
