Through the new birth, our spirits have been recreated by God (2cor5:17, Eph 4:24). Therefore, we can be led by God through our spirits because that's where the love of God dwells. Under the new Covenant, the law of love is a commandment. God didn't give it to us as a suggestion. If the law of love is written in your heart and you're walking in the light of God's love, you are not going to break any of the ten commandments. The ten commandments were given to curb sin, but if you're walking in love you're not going to break any of God's commandments.
Without faith it is impossible to please God. However, Faith won't work if there is something wrong with your love walk. We need to be so saturated in God's word that we will be saturated in his love. Then, acting on the God-kind of love will be the first thought that comes to mind no matter what anyone has done to us.
Another characteristics of the God kind of love is that it forgives. When God's love is in demonstration, there is an attitude of forgiveness because love and forgiveness go hand in hand. One sure way to exercise God's love is to forgive. The God kind of love is full of kindness and is tender-hearted. It is always ready to forgive. Your flesh doesn't want you to be kind to other people, especially when they don't treat you exactly as you think they ought to. But then, we have to keep the flesh under. If the flesh dominates, we cannot walk in the God kind of love. God is not going to do anything with your body while you're on this earth; he already did something with your spirit! Believe that!
Fight the flesh today and embrace the God-kind of Love.
