Follow after Love

“Follow after charity, and desire spiritual gifts, but rather that ye may prophesy.”
‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭14:1‬ ‭KJV‬‬
Paul encourages us to go after a life of love as if our life depended on it—because it does. Let’s give ourselves to the gifts God gives us.  Agape is God’s only agenda! Let’s be love driven in our pursuit of spiritual gifts; love awakens our most earnest desire to speak with inspired revelation.  The best way to pursue love and spiritual gifts is to realise how pursued we are by Christ’s love.  Prophets revealed the oracles of God and hidden things in the old covenant.  In the new covenant of grace, Jesus is both the theme as well as the completeness of the prophetic word.  Every Scripture points to Christ.  The redeemed prophesy from sonship, declaring the Incarnate Word Who is the Heir of all things, the Author of the ages and we have our beginning and our being in Him.  Glory to God!
