Hour Of Visitation || Unveiling The Supernatural Power Of Love || Bishop David Oyedepo

Among the Holocaust of the end times is what the Bible calls pestilences, incurable diseases, plagues

Matthew 24:4-8
4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.
5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.
6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.

Finance can’t handle pestilences, wars and rumors of war, money cannot handle that yet God has a plan

1Corinthians 2 :9
But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.
Genuine love for God turns believers to pathfinders, pace setters and trailblazers
It gives believers access to the deep things of God

It turns eagles out of believers so the gruesome issues of the earth, they rode above it, you can’t waylay eagle they are off the human sphere, you can’t threaten them with fire, fire does not burn in the sky
The love for God secures divine presence for the believers, money can’t buy divine presence, true lovers of God are indestructible, he dwells in God and God in him

1John 4:16
And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.
Battles clear the way when love is coming
Love makes the believer more than a conqueror
Medical expertise is equal to zero in the face of pestilence
You’d better keep your love for God alive, it’s your ultimate security in these hard times of uncertainty
Divine presence will dissolve any mountain, will swallow any sea
When you wear divine presence as a garment, you walk unscratched in any battle
I don’t love ministry, I love God, ministry is an assignment
The love for God is on its own.

Ephesians 3:17-19
17 That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love,
18 May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height;
19 And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God.

Romans 8:28
And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.
All things work together for. Good to them that love God. You are not crying for it, they just like up in your favour.

What is Love?

Love for God implies, Placing God first .

placing God above all else, including your own self

Luke 14:26-28
26 If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple.
27 And whosoever doth not bear his cross, and come after me, cannot be my disciple.
28 For which of you, intending to build a tower, sitteth not down first, and counteth the cost, whether he have sufficient to finish it?

It’s a kingdom advancement priority lifestyle

Mathew 6;33
But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

Loving what God loves the most

John 21:15-17
15 So when they had dined, Jesus saith to Simon Peter, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me more than these? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my lambs.
16 He saith to him again the second time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my sheep.
17 He saith unto him the third time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? Peter was grieved because he said unto him the third time, Lovest thou me? And he said unto him, Lord, thou knowest all things; thou knowest that I love thee. Jesus saith unto him, Feed my sheep.

God’s love has proofs, it must still passion for the lost

Denying oneself for Christ asked

Luke 9:23
23 Then He said to them all, “If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross [a]daily, and follow Me.
1Corintiana 9:23
I have become all things to all men, that I might by all means save some. Now this I do for the gospel’s sake, that I may be partaker of it with you.
Nothing of value is free, only genuine disciples become Apostle

What is in love that makes it the greatest spiritual virtue ?

Winning without sweat

Staying in love with God makes a failure proof believer because love never fails

They don’t have to have jobs, you can create them, you can employ them, they think your case is closed, they don’t know you are their rescuer

The love of God enhances our access to revelation

1Corinthians 2:9
But as it is written: “Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, Nor have entered into the heart of man The things which God has prepared for those who love.

the larger a believers heart for God, the greater access to revelation

The real famine is not the famines of food and water, it is the famine of the word,

Amos 2:8
They lie down by every altar on clothes taken in pledge, And drink the wine of the condemned in the house of their god

Everybody loses control when the word is not being accessed
Man’s life is cut short when the word is not being accessed
You’ll never run revelation dry anymore
Lack of access to revelation is the reason for frustration

It enhances our faith to deliver maximally

Access to divine wisdom

1Samuel 18:5
5 So David went out wherever Saul sent him, and behaved wisely. And Saul set him over the men of war, and he was accepted in the sight of all the people and also in the sight of Saul’s servants.
It’s not enough to be in love, it’s important to stay in love, love is a choice, choose ye this day whom ye shall serve.

God won’t make that choice for you or me, it’s a choice you make
may you make that choice today and enjoy for life

Some Physical Proofs Of Love

If you love Him, you’ll love His word

Psalm 119;197, Oh, how I love Your law! It is my meditation all the day.
Psalm 119:162 I rejoice at Your word As one who finds great treasure. I hate and abhor lying, But I love Your law.

You’ll love His house

You’ll have delight in keeping His commandment

John 14:21 He who has My commandments and keeps them, it is he who loves Me. And he who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and manifest Myself to him

You’ll serve Him cheerfully

You’ll give to the needy

1Johm 4:21
If someone says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen? And this commandment we have from Him: that he who loves God must love his brother also
Prayer: Holy Ghost, fire the love of God into next levels in my heart.
