Creflo Dollar: Are You Loving or Selfish?
Do you ever find it really difficult to love someone? Loving your enemies really is a test of character and too often I fail at it. Creflo Dollar offers a challenging message in this article. See what you think.
As a Christian, you are commanded to love everyone—the good, the bad and the ugly (John 13:34). It is not an option; you can't pick and choose whom to love. The only choice you have in the matter is whether or not you will obey the commandment. Unfortunately, many believers are in a state of disobedience because their decision to love is based on feelings or on whether their love is returned. That is conditional, human love—it profits nothing. Others fail to walk in love because they believe that it is impossible for them to love as Goes does. They fail to realize that God would never ask anyone to do something that isn't within their capacity to accomplish. Every born–again believer has the ability to walk in love.
When you became born again, you received an "injection of love" from the Holy Spirit, Who came to live inside of you. As a result, you have an anointing, or God—given ability that makes it possible for you to love in a supernatural way. You can show affection toward others despite their actions. In addition, you are more than capable of retaliating the right way, which is according to the Word of God.
Nothing in your life—finances, family, healing and so on—will work to its fullest potential until you let go of selfishness and perfect your love walk. To be selfish is to "regard one's own interest;"selfishness is "a devotion to one's own interest." Selfishness and love are the two most powerful forces in existence. When you operate in one of these forces, you short–circuit the other. When you choose to love, you turn your back on selfishness. When you choose to be selfish, you turn your back on the opportunity to express love. There is no middle ground. You cannot love unconditionally and be unconditionally selfish as well.
