  Speaker 1: Well, good evening, naked evening, Good evening, y'all. I know
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: I'm late. I am really late.
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: Normally I do this in the mornings, but today had
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: some things going on and I wasn't able to do
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: it this morning. So again I apologize for those that
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: are normally used to tuning in and hearing me in
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: the mornings between seven and nine, but I have to
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: be obedient and I'm supposed to share a daily devotion today.
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: It's actually day number nineteen of this twenty one day journey,
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: so I'm gonna try my best to be on in
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: the morning as between seven and nine like I'm supposed to.
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: But again I apologize for the lateness, but always trying
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: to be obedient to that that I have been called to,
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: and I was able to get everything together and be
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: here to close out this amazing day.
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: So we didn't get to.
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: Start the day with our daily devotion, but we'll get
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: to end this day and then I'll get to see
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: you back here on tomorrow. So I'm gonna go ahead
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: and get started. I'm not gonna be on here very long,
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: probably about twenty twenty five minutes at the most, trying
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: to get it done before midnight so that I can
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: be obedient and have this done within the timeframe that
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: is supposed to be done. And again we're coming out
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: in one of my personal devotions. God is my refuge
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: and my present help. This devotion can be purchased on
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: my website, which is Wwwanela Thomas smithbooks dot com.
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: Again, that's www.
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: Angela Thomas Smith books dot org, I mean dot com.
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry, y'all.
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: Again, this is day number nineteen, Love without Limits, and
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna go ahead and jump right on me and
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: so I can get this done before this day closes out. So, Father,
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: got in the name of Jesus, what I think you
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: for this space. I thank you for opportunity to share
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: your word, share that that you have placed within me.
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: Lord God.
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: So Father, I asked that you will decrease me in
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: the flesh or God and allow your spirit man to
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: comfort so that I can share that that you have
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: given me to share with your people on today. Again,
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: I thank you for this opportunity and your son Jesus name,
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: I prayer Amen.
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: So y'all, I'm gonna go.
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: Ahead and just die right on in to this lesson Again,
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: I want to thank all of those that have been
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: joining me every morning.
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: Y'all.
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: We've been doing this for five months, and until God
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: tell me different, I'm gonna continue to show up.
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: Again.
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: I apologize for the lateness, but again I still just
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: want to be obedient and just want to share that
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: He's placed within me. So I apologize. And today's lesson
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: is coming out of Day nineteen, and it is love
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: without limits. Our scripture is going to be First John
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: for chapter four, verses ninety ten. It said, this is
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: how God showed his love amongst us. He sent his
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: one and only son into the world that we might
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: live through him. This is the love, not that we
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: love God, but that He loved us, and he sent
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: his son as an annoyting sacrifice for our sins. Again,
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: that is First John, Chapter four, verses nine and ten.
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: And I thank him for his world on today. So
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: y'all gonna go ahead and jump right on into the
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: lesson on today. Our affirmation is going to be coming
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: from affirmation is God limitless love fills my life, bringing
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: purpose and hope. God limit less love fills my life,
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: bringing purpose and hope.
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: Know that love is more than a feeling.
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: It is a force that comes that has came for us,
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: found us, and frees us. God's love to not wait
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: for us to deserve it. It broke into our world in.
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: The person of Jesus.
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: This love is limitless, sacrificial, and life giving. When we
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: receive it, we do not just feel love, but we
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: are empowered to love without fear and without measures. That
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: is called a god bab, and the world of today
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: is a god bab. That is the selfish, giving, unconditional
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: love of God that seeks our high. It's good act
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: and sacrificial too secure. It God's love for us is
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: boundless and sacrificial. It is the standard by which we
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: can measure all love. His love inspires us to extend
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: love freely to others. God Love starts with Him, not us.
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: Not that we loved God, but He loved us. But
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: God commanded his love towards us, and that while we
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: were yet sinners, Christ died for us Romans five and eight.
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: It says do not we do not earn this love,
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: but we receive it, and it's rooted in Christ's first words.
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: God love is life and drives out fear that we
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: might live through him. Perfect love out fear. God love
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: is not passive. It receives and restore and replaces fear
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: with the confidence of trust. God love is our model
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: and a mandate. And first John for an eleven he say,
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: be loved. If God so loved us, we ought to
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: also love one another. But this shall all men know
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: that ye are My disciples, if ye have.
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: Loved one to another.
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: The proof we understand God's love is that we extend
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: it practically, visibly and consistently. How can we apply this
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: to our lives daily? First we have to receive and
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: rest pray, Father, I receive your God bay loved through Jesus,
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: rout and.
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: Root me and ground me in it.
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: Today we can meditate on first John four and ten
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: and understand that he said in his word, this is
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: how God showed his love among us. He sent his
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: one and only son, so that we may have the
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: right to repent, that we may have the right to
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: turn from that that we do not do according to
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: His word, so that we may have eternal life. But
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: we have to first seek him. So today I challenge
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: you a lot of people. We we think that forgiveness
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: is for the other person, when in nat reality it
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: is for us. We have to forgive so that we
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: don't block our lessons. Forgiven is a mandatory mandate understanding
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: that we can practice. We can practice satrificial love by
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: forgiving somebody, by just sharing words of kindness. If you
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: see someone in need of a meal, someone in need
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: of just a conversation or a hub, a ride, or
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: just whatever you feel they may be in need of today,
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: showing that meeting that need, do it without expecting anything
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: in return.
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: That it's a commandment.
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: If we go over to Luke six and thirty five,
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: he tells us that that we do, we don't have
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: to respect expect anything back, because what we do He
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: will honor it and He will bless us for it.
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: Replace fear with love. Told y'all we was gonna be
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: before you loan. So one of the things that he
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: has shared with us is that his love is boundless
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: and sacrificial. That means it has no bounce a godpe
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: love is something that we have to show, and it's
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: something that we do not expecting anything in return. I
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: often hear our apostles say that that you do for others,
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: God will make happen for you. So you believe in
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: God for something on today, If you can help make
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: that happen for someone else.
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: You can see what he'll do for you again.
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: How can you apply this to your life? Receive his
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: word on today, ask him to show you a god
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: in love to lead you, to guide you, and to
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: direct you. Meditate on first John four and ten. If
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: it's only for five minutes, breathe in, breathe out, and
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: repeat his word that sometime it's just spending that time
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: with him so that he can get that thing rooted
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: in you and down in your spirit. So I leave
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: you with this, thank you for loving us, and thank
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: you for loving us first and best Father, I asked
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: that you will anchor our hearts with your limitless love.
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: Teach us to love.
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: Like you, freely, boldly, and without fear. Teach us how
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: to love our brothers and sisters as you have commanded
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: us to. It is a commandment that we're supposed to
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: love our brothers and sisters. How can we say we
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: love Jesus if we can't even love our brothers and
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: sisters or who in the flesh? So I challenge you
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: on today anchor yourself and him an caire yourself in
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: the world. He's given us instructions, He's given us the
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: basic instructions before living earth. So if you don't know,
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: if you need guidance, you need that direction. I challenge
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: you to open up your Bible, pick it up, read it.
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: These are things that He's showed us, and these are
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: people that have experienced all the things that we're going
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: to experience in life. Put yourself in a place of
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: those names that you see in the Bible. I'm not
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: a theologian. I don't walk in the office. I just
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: come on and share from the experiences that He has
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: allowed me to experience, things that I have endured, things
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: that I have done that will allow me to be
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: able to share, to be able to help someone else.
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: Understand that you are right where you're supposed to be,
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: but things may not be going the way you want
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: them to go. But know that he loves you and
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: he has no boundaries. He has no limits. He loves
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: you unconditional. He wants the best for you. So how
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: do we walk in his love? How do we share
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: his love? We have to be obedient and we have
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: to align with his word. If you're not as sure,
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: if you are aligning with his word, open up the word.
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: Everything that you do should point back to him. Everything
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: that you do should be bringing him glory and it
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: should be working together for your good. You may not
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: understand it as you're going through it, but when you
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: look back, you should be able to see where it
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: was for your good and how he was working it out.
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: So give him glory, praise him, and honor him and
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: all things that you do. I want to thank those
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: that have jumped on and shared it with me. I
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: will be back in the morning between seven and nine,
• 13:10
