  • “For other *foundation* can no man lay besides that which [is] laid, *which is Jesus Christ*.” (1Cor 3.11).

The fifth foundation is the love, inasmuch as Jesus is God and God is love (1John 4.8,16).

  • “But *put on the Lord Jesus Christ*, and do not take thought beforehand for the lusts of the flesh.” (Romans 13.14).
  • “And above all these things *put on love*, which is the bond of perfectness.” (Colossians 3.14)

The love is the bond that join all perfectness. For you to figure out this, imagine having handy all the perfect pieces of a car. There is no point having these ones alone in our house. It is no use having them isolated. They will only occupy space in your house.

Alike, the blessings of Jesus are only worth having them if they are linked by the love of Jesus for those who are around us:

  • “And we know that all things work *together* for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose.” (Romans 8.28).

So, try to see anything with the eyes of the love of Christ (Matthew 6.22,23; Luke 11.33-36; Revelation 3.18) and you will be able to get together all that have come about your life and, thus, feel that you don’t need anyone to prophesy a good day for you, inasmuch as you are already living the best day of your life (Psalms 118.24).
