(Why Capacity for Love Determines the Quality of Your Life)
If you truly want to make the most of your life, sacrificial love is non-negotiable. Love isn’t a soft skill—it’s a spiritual strength.
God often uses family as our first training ground.
Before you face enemies outside, He prepares you through relationships at home.
What you battle in the world usually had its practice session in the family.
“Anyone who does not love does not know God, because God is love.” — 1 John 4:8
The family remains the most powerful leadership institution on earth.
It shapes how we lead, relate, forgive, confront, and care.
That’s why love must be learned early
with friends, colleagues, family members, leaders, bosses, and even strangers.
To stand in the Word is to walk in love.
Anything else is a dangerous game—one that slowly hardens the heart.
“Sin will be rampant everywhere, and the love of many will grow cold.” — Matthew 24:12 (NLT)
Scripture already warned us:
As the years go by, loving people will get harder, not easier.
“There will be terrible times in the last days… people will be lovers of themselves.” — 2 Timothy 3:1–5 (NLT)
This is why you must be intentional.
Do not submit to leadership systems—political, corporate, religious, or cultural—that enslave people and frustrate their God-given potential.
One painful reality in this part of the world is the cheapening of human life.
What we need is not more noise—but a Love Revolution.
The Holy Spirit is not only revealed by speaking in tongues,
but by the capacity to love deeply and live generously.
“All the believers devoted themselves to fellowship… and shared everything they had.” — Acts 2:44
Love-driven leaders are the highest form of leaders.
They don’t just command loyalty—they inspire life.
Be that leader.
Be that believer.
Be that human—with the capacity to love beyond convenience.
And remember:
New birth is what expands our capacity to love.
“God’s love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit.” — Romans 5:5
Prayer
Father, deliver me from self-centeredness.
Heal my heart from bitterness and fear.
Expand my capacity to love—deeply, freely, and sacrificially.
Make me a love-driven leader in my generation.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
