Love in Action

February 14, 2015 by Curt Landry Ministries

In February, we hear a lot about love. This “love” is often expressed in a variety of ways: roses, chocolates, cards, etc. These expressions of love are indeed The dictionary describes love as “a feeling of deep affection” or “cherishing someone or something.” Love is indeed an interesting word, because it can be used as either a noun or a verb. 1 Corinthians 13:4-7 beautifully blends these two definitions, with a glimpse of what true love looks and acts like:wonderful physical demonstrations of an emotional feeling.

The dictionary describes love as “a feeling of deep affection” or “cherishing someone or something.” Love is indeed an interesting word, because it can be used as either a noun or a verb. 1 Corinthians 13:4-7 beautifully blends these two definitions, with a glimpse of what true love looks and acts like:

“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.”

Many of the qualities of love that you read about in the above scripture are feelings or emotions, controlled by our feelings or emotions. But, today I would like for you to look at this scripture in a different light—as a set of actions. Actions that lead to success and will not fail, because “love never fails” (1 Cor. 13:8).

When we understand love as an action, we can see that 1 Corinthians 13 is calling us to serve in God’s Kingdom by doing good to others; and we must do so with pure hearts of love as unto the Lord. God withheld nothing from us when He sent His only Son to the earth to give us salvation and to meet ALL of our needs—according to His riches in glory (Phil.4:19). So, we too, are being called to lay down our lives and our love on His altar in complete surrender.

Charitable giving is love in action, and is used as a gift which in-turn protects our spiritual gifts. Charity is generosity and helpfulness in action!The King James Bible interprets 1 Corinthians 13:8 to read:

“Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.”

Charitable giving is love in action, and is used as a gift which in-turn protects our spiritual gifts. Charity is generosity and helpfulness in action!

At times, you may find it challenging to walk in love in but I want to encourage you that it is your love in action that will protect your spiritual gifts. Whether it is about loving a challenging family member or co-worker, serving your community, or sowing your financial seed in good soil, these charitable acts will position you for blessing!

February is indeed a great month for us to remember the power of love, but I want to encourage you to take your expression of love beyond the traditional gifts of flowers and chocolates!

Remember, “Charity never fails.” And charitable gifts given in love, will not fail. I encourage you to keep sowing, keep giving, and most importantly, don’t give up on the power of love.

“For it pleased those from Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain contribution for the poor among the saints who are in Jerusalem. It pleased them indeed, and they are their debtors. For if the Gentiles have been partakers of their spiritual things, their duty is also to minister to them in material things.” —Romans 15:26-27

We can see that the Macedonians and Achaeans discovered the mystery and the power of charitable giving with pure hearts of love toward the saints in Jerusalem!

At Curt Landry Ministries we have been blessed to understand this same principle for many years. We have been honored to follow the example left to us in Romans 15 by blessing the widow and the orphan in the City of Jerusalem and elsewhere. We believe this is love in action—love being demonstrated as a verb.

Remember, “Charity never fails.” And charitable gifts given in love, will not fail. I encourage you to keep sowing, keep giving, and most importantly, don’t give up on the power of love.

As we read the words of Yeshua in Acts 1:8, “But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth,” we notice that Jerusalem is the first location the Lord commanded us to be a witness in. There is something supernatural about blessing, praying, and being charitable to Jerusalem and her poor.

“Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his master made ruler over his household, to give them food in due season? Blessed is that servant whom his master, when he comes, will find so doing.”— Matthew 24:45-46

Friends, our heart’s desire should always be this… that when The Master returns, He finds us “so doing”—He finds us serving in love!

TAKING THE GOSPEL OF YESHUA HAMASHIACH (JESUS THE MESSIAH) INTO ALL THE NATIONS!

The One New Man Network acts as a voice to the Nations, walking out the instructions of Mark 16:15, “…Go into all the world and preach and publish openly the good news (the Gospel) to every creature.” With the vision to preach and to publish openly the good news, The One New Man Network brings a message of salvation that can be heard throughout the Nations of the World!

MISSION, VISION & PURPOSE:

The mission of The One New Man Network is to be a bridge of unity and restoration between Israel and the Church, releasing God’s fullness throughout the earth. Our vision is to bring revival to Israel, the Church, and the nations through a deeper understanding and revelation of the power of covenant. Our purpose is to facilitate covenant restoration through the reconciliation of Jews and Gentiles coming together as the One New Man.

OUR CORE VALUES:

Honor– We believe that honor is a force and we treat each person with a level of value and respect that allows us to take the role of a servant in the relationship.

Truth– We believe that God’s truth has the power to set people free, and we do everything in our power to remain faithful to His truth, in thought, in word, and in deed.

Integrity– We adhere to biblically based moral and ethical principles, and maintain these principles both in public and in private.

Statement of Faith

What We Believe…

We believe that the Bible and all the scriptures within both Old and New Testaments are the infallible and inspired Word of God.

We believe that there is one God, our creator, manifested into three persons – God the Father, Jesus the Son, our Savior and the Holy Spirit, the very Spirit of God, who provides spiritual power for daily living and Godly service.
