Galatians 5 (NASB) 5 For we through the Spirit, by faith, are waiting for the hope of righteousness. 6 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision means anything, but faith working through love. What is important is faith expressing itself in love. (NLT)

 Working – energeo – to be active; might; to energize  Faith is energized through love  Faith is empowered in an atmosphere where love is  Faith without love will take you no where 1 Corinthians 13:2b (NKJV)... but have not love I am nothing.

Matthew 14:14 (NKJV) And when Jesus went out He saw a great multitude; and He was moved with compassion for them, and healed their sick.

Compassion- splagchnizomai -to be moved as to one's bowels (for the bowels were thought to be the seat of love)  The miracles came as a direct result of His love for them  Jesus was a man of great faith, even more so, He was even more

 Faith without love is selfish (to serve) 1 Thessalonians 3 6 But now that Timothy has come to us from you, and brought us good news of your faith and love, and that you always have good remembrance of us, greatly desiring to see us, as we also to see you— 7 therefore, brethren, in all our affliction and distress we were comforted concerning you by your faith.

1 Thessalonians 3 8 For now we live, if you stand fast in the Lord. 9 For what thanks can we render to God for you, for all the joy with which we rejoice for your sake before our God, 10 night and day praying exceedingly that we may see your face and perfect what is lacking in your faith?

Ephesians 3:17 (NKJV)... that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love.  Can not grow in faith without growing in love  Faith that doesn’t work through love is dangerous

 The Enemy knows that in an atmosphere of love creates a place that faith can operate 1. God Encounters 2. God working in lives 3. Miracles occur …pride, offense, insecurities, critical

1 John 4 (NKJV) 17 Love has been perfected among us in this: that we may have boldness in the day of judgment; because as He is, so are we in this world. 18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves torment. But he who fears has not been made perfect in love. 19 We love Him[a] because He first loved us.

 Fear is the opposite of faith  Fear is cast out when the supernatural power of love is released (fear becomes powerless and faith is increased)  “Feed your faith and starve your doubts and fears to death” - Reinhard Bonnke  Love feeds your faith... How much He loves me, my love for others

1 John 4 (NKJV) 20 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[a] he love God whom he has not seen? 21 And this commandment we have from Him: that he who loves God must love his brother also.

1 John 5 1 Whoever believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God, and everyone who loves Him who begot also loves him who is begotten of Him. 2 By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and keep His commandments. 3 For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments. And His commandments are not burdensome.

1 John 5 4 For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith. 5 Who is he who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God

 In our Homes  In our families  In our community  Among the believers  In our relationships  In our church

 Moved with compassion (moved in our bowels) – my heart is broken with love for another person (His heart for them)  We aren’t broken for people... but we want great faith and great miracles  When I am moved with love (God is love), an atmosphere is created where faith can be released for the impossible to become possible.
