VALENTINE 💝 Is coming, as a christian how are u planning on celebrating it??
The world today has a wrong and ungodly perspective of love
and at this time of Valentine, promotes and celebrates
promiscuity. But if we must celebrate it at all as Christians,
we are to celebrate it in the right path of love, which is called
“agape” love (God’s kind of love). And John 3:16 says: “For
God so loved the world and He gave His only begotten Son,
that whosoever would believe in Him, would not perish, but
have everlasting life.”
Therefore, Christians do not celebrate it in a carnal or selfish
manner, but base the celebration on sacrificial way by putting
others first.It is not the sinful way the world celebrates it in the
name of boyfriend and girlfriend, committing immorality by
way of ungodly love, which from the Biblical point of view is
not love, but ‘lust.’
Valentine to Christians is an opportunity to care for the needy,
the less privileged, to look for those who have lacked care and
identify with them.It could also be regarded as a time to
actualise the place of true love between a husband and wife.
It is an opportunity for the minister of God to talk about
genuine love in the home, intimating the husband, to what
extent he should love the wife, and the wife the magnitude of
love she should have for the husband.
This is the time the ministers should emphasise forgiveness in
the home. Many couples have issues; to the extent they do not
relate with one another any more. Pastors should take
advantage of the season to talk on renewed love between
husband and wife. It is a time to amplify general love between
parents and their children and for every member of the family
to love one another, as before, especially where there is
established derailment in the true love in the home.
God completely opposes those using this period to express
lust and swim in immorality, which attracts God’s terrible
judgment.
