WHY IS LOVE(THE LOVE OF GOD) THE
WAY TO VICTORY?
•The Question – In our Walk of Faith with the
Lord is Love the way to victory?
• Response - Oh a resounding Yes! Yes!! Yes!!!
•Justifications from the Scriptures –
• 1st
Corth 13:1-2 - Though I speak with the tongues
of men and of angels, but have not love, I have
become as sounding brass or a clanging cymbal.
And though I have the gift of prophecy, and
understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and
though I have all faith, so that I could remove
mountains, but have not love, I am nothing.

WAY TO VICTORY?
• 1st
Corth 13:3, - And though I bestow all my goods
to feed the poor, and though I give my body to
be burned, but have not love, it profits me
nothing.
• Verse 8 – Love never fails. But whether there are
prophecies, they will fail; whether there are
tongues, they will cease; whether there is
knowledge, it will vanish away.
• Verse 13 - And now abide faith, hope, love, these
three; but the greatest of these is love.

WAY TO VICTORY?
• Faith works through Love – Galtn 5:6 – For in Christ
Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision avails
anything, but faith working through love.
• 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.

WAY TO VICTORY?
• 1st
John 4 – 7-8 – Beloved, let us love one another,
for love is of God; and everyone who loves is
born of God and knows God. He who does not
love does not know God, for God is love.
• John 13:34 – A new commandment I give to you,
that you love one another; as I have loved you,
that you also love one another. By this all will
know that you are My disciples, if you have love
for one another.
8

WAY TO VICTORY?
• Thus love is a necessary condition for us to be
effective witnesses which is a very important
aspect of our assignment (Matthew 28:19).
• Go therefore and make disciples of all nations,
baptizing them in the name of the Father and of
the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to
observe all things that I have commanded you;
and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of
the age.

INSIGHTS ON HOW TO WALK IN THE
LOVE OF GOD AS CHRISTIANS
•Asking For Wisdom: A Good Way To Start
•Eph 3:17-19 – That Christ may dwell in your
hearts through faith; that you, being rooted
and grounded in love, May be able to
comprehend with all saints what is the
breadth, and length, and depth, and height;
And to know the love of Christ, which passes
knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the
fullness of God.

•Asking For Wisdom: A Good Way To Start
• Eph 1:16-20 – I Cease not to give thanks for you, making
mention of you in my prayers, That the God of our Lord
Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the
spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him:
The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that
ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what
the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints, And
what is the exceeding greatness of his power toward us
who believe, according to the working of his mighty
power, Which He wrought in Christ, when He raised Him
from the dead, and set him at His own right hand in the
heavenly places.

•First Things First –
•As Christians, we already have the love of
God shed abroad in our heart. Rom 5:5 – Now
hope does not disappoint, because the love of
God has been poured out in our hearts by the
Holy Spirit who was given to us.
12

•How Do we Exercise This Love?
• 1st
Corth 13: 4-7 – Love suffers long and is kind;
love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is
not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not
seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; does
not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth;
bears all things, believes all things, hopes all
things, endures all things.

• Math 5:44-46 – But I say to you, love your
enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to
those who hate you, and pray for those who
spitefully use you and persecute you, that you
may be sons of your Father in heaven; for He
makes His sun rise on the evil and on the good,
and sends rain on the just and the unjust. For if
you love those who love you, what reward have
you? Do not even the tax collectors do the same?
14

•Romans 12:17 – 19 – Repay no one evil for
evil. Have regard for good things in the sight
of all men. If it is possible, as much as
depends on you, live peaceably with all men.
Beloved, do not avenge yourselves, but rather
give place to wrath; for it is written,
Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord.

•How Do we Exercise This Love in Conflict
Resolution?
•Eph 4: 15-16 – But speaking the truth in love,
may grow up in all things into Him who is the
head – Christ – from whom the whole body,
joined and knit together by what every joint
supplies, according to the effective working
by which every part does its share, causes
growth of the body for the edifying of itself in
love.
16

Resolution?
• Math 18: 15 -17 – Moreover, if your brother sins
against you, go and tell him his fault between
you and him alone. If he hears you, you have
gained your brother. But if he will not hear you,
take with you one or two more, that by the
mouth of two or three witnesses every word
may be established. And if he refuses to hear
them tell it to the church. But if he refuses even
to hear the church, let him be to you like a
heathen and a tax collector.
17

Resolution?
•Eph 4: 31-32 – Let all bitterness, wrath, anger,
clamor, and evil speaking be put away from
you, with all malice. And be kind to one
another, tender hearted, forgiving one
another, just as God in Christ also forgave
you.
18

Resolution?
• John 7:24 – Do not judge according to appearance
but judge with righteous judgement.
•What then is righteous judgement?
• John 5:30 – I can of Myself do nothing. As I
hear, I judge; and my Judgement is righteous,
because I do not seek My own will but the will
of the Father who sent me.
• Judging by God’s standards i.e. His Word
19
Je sus is Lo rd

Resolution?
• Math 7:1-4 – Judge not, that you be not judged.
For with what judgment you judge, you will be
judged; and with the same measure you use, it
will be measured back to you. And why do you
look at the speck in your brother’s eye, but do
not consider the plank in your own eye? Or how
can you say to your brother, Let me remove the
speck out of your eye; and look a plank is in your
own eye?
20
Je sus is Lo rd

Resolution?
• Math 7:5 –Hypocrite! First remove the plank
from your own eye, and then you will see clearly
to remove the speck out of your brother’s eye.
• Love has to be our motivation and the Word of
God the standard.
• Romans 13:10 – Love does no harm to a neighbor;
therefore love is the fulfilment of the law.

LOVE OF GOD AS CHRISTIANS - SOME
DEMONSTRATION OF GOD’S LOVE
•Demonstration of God’s Love
•John 3:16-17 – For God so love the world that
He gave His only begotton Son that whoever
believes in Him, should not perish but have
everlasting life. For God did not send His Son
into the world to condemn the world, but that
the world through Him might be saved.
22

•Romans 5: 8-9 – But God demonstrates His
own love toward us, in that while we were still
sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then,
having now been justified by His blood, we
shall be saved from wrath through Him.
23
Je sus is Lo rd

•Eph 2: 4-6 – But God, who is rich in mercy,
because of His great love with which He loved
us, even when we were dead in trespasses,
made us alive together with Christ (by grace
you have been saved), and raised us up
together, and made us sit together in the
heavenly places in Christ Jesus.
24

SUMMARY
•In summary, love is the way to victory
because love never fails and God is
love.
•As Christians, the love of God has
already been shed abroad in our heart
by the Holy Spirit and we have the
capacity to love God’s way.
25
Je sus is Lo rd

SUMMARY
•Our goal is to continually grow in love
as this will place us on the path to
being filled with all the fullness of God.
•Imagine the supernatural reality…
Heaven on Earth!!!

RECEIVING THE GIFT OF SALVATION
• Are you saved? Have you received God’s gift of
salvation (Eph. 2:8)? I encourage you to accept the
Lord’s precious gift of salvation which is freely
available to the whole of mankind.
• Faith in Jesus Christ is primarily what is required to
be saved. The bible tells us for all have sinned and
fallen short of the glory of God (Rom 3:23) and the
wages of sin is death (Rom 6:23). As a result, the
whole of mankind deserves to be separated from
God eternally (Rom 6:23).
27
Je sus is Lo rd

• However, our Father loves us dearly and as such
he sent His only begotten son to die in our place
(John 3:16-17) so that we may be saved and has
through Christ reconciled us back to Himself (2nd
Corth 5:18).
• It is not His desire that any should perish but that
all should come to repentance (2nd
Pet 3:9) and
accept His precious gift of salvation. If you would
like to accept this gift please say the following
confession.
28
Je sus is Lo rd

• Father I come to You in the name of the Lord Jesus
Christ. I believe in my heart that Jesus Christ is the
son of God and that He died for my sins and was
raised from the dead for my justification according
to the scriptures. I believe that because of His
death, burial and resurrection, I am set right with
God. So I receive Him(Jesus) in my heart as my
saviour and confess Him with my mouth as my
Lord. Thank You, Lord.
