LOVE

Love is the most powerful weapon for spiritual warfare. Satan does not love because all he knows is fear and he imputes fear and controls through fear. Love is the most powerful antidote for fear. Fear causes violence for violence is a defence against fear. Fear drives violence for fear loses control and therefore violence ensues. Underlying all violence is a spirit of fear. Fear of loss of control is the basis for violence. Fear of being attacked and losing face results in violence. Criminals in prison are tormented by fear. This torment makes them hard and ruthless for they are victims of their own fear. In prison they feel safe from their own fears. Outside they will be surrounded by fear of retribution. Love heals, comforts, respects and does not control. Therefore love is the most powerful weapon to overcome fear. Whenever fear attacks you remember to energise the spirit of love. Love does not focus on the negatives but the positive. The positive power of love is the healing force to all the problems in human relationships. This love will lay down its life for another just as Jesus did. The Cross symbolises love for it is the ultimate sacrifice. Jesus died that I may receive His love that heals my heart of fear and fills me with His peace.
