13 Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.
2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing.
3 And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing.

MFM Daily Devotional 1 April 2025 Message
God is love. His love is not the same as the world’s. God’s love is unconditional. That is the central message of 1 Corinthians 13. Apostle Paul made it clear to us that beyond all spiritual gifts, acquiring spiritual power and fulfilling all tenets of the Christian faith, beyond all spiritual knowledge, understanding of deep spiritual mysteries, faith and hope, the most excellent way is that of love.
To reinforce this, he said, “I am nothing without love.” In other words, no matter the mastery of all spiritual knowledge if that person lacks God’s kind of love, he or she amounts to nothing.
God’s kind of love is patient, serene, kind and thoughtful. It is not boastful, proud or arrogant. It is therefore humble. This love is not rude, nor selfish. It is the kind of love that has consideration for others. It is not insensitive, nor is it easily provoked or angered. It is a gentle spirit in manifestation. God’s kind of love doesn’t keep records of offences.
READ MFM Daily Devotional 28 March 2025 – Deliverance From Captivity
It forgives and lets go, sometimes in advance. After all, Jesus paid the price for our sins in advance. He wrought victory for us through His death on the Cross. All we need to do is to enter into eternal pardon and enjoy the victory that has been settled for us against our arch-enemy, Satan.
God’s kind of love is just and true. It doesn’t rejoice at injustice and falsehood. It is never deceptive! According to Paul, this love bears and endures all things. It looks for the best in the other person and is ready to stay close even at difficult times. It is steadfast and strong, unmoved and undaunted when challenges arise. It never fails! No wonder Jesus remains true and forever the same, no matter our unfaithfulness. He is a Friend that never forsakes us! His arms are ever ready to welcome the prodigal home.
Beloved, it is time we engaged in a serious self-examination. Do you have the God’s kind of love or do you love as the world loves? Remember all that God and His Son, Jesus Christ, have done for you. Decide to have and demonstrate this kind of love!
