September 23 - Knowledge and Love
"And this I pray, that your love may abound still more and more in knowledge and all discerment,..." - Philippians 1:9
How do you know what love is? You know what love is by being loved by Jesus. Paul prayed that the Philippians' love would "abound" in knowledge and discernment. If you want to be blessed, read verses 10 and 11 and look at how Paul links approval of excellent things with knowledge and love. More and more Christians are neither filled with the knowledge of the Word of God, and lack the love that comes from a close walk with Jesus and His Holy Word. We have believed that the most important thing to do is "love." That is true. However, though that is partly true, without knowledge and discernment we cannot love or approve those things that are excellent and walk in righteousness with God.
