Hi, this is Victoria. Thank you so much for downloading this podcast. I believe God has got

amazing things in your future. I hope you enjoy this message.

I want to encourage you today with a scripture that

Paul prayed over the Philippian church. And I think this is a great scripture that we should

pray each and every day. It's found in Philippians 1. He prayed this. He said, I pray that your love

would abound in knowledge and debt of insight. His prayer to the Philippian church was this.

I want you to agree with me. That's why I'm sending you this letter. That your love would

grow. Increase. Multiply. Now let me tell you something. He wasn't writing this letter to them

because he had noticed in his visits that they weren't people of love. Historically, they were people

who loved. But he was saying to them, this is such an important prayer because your love has so

much potential to go so much further and build such a greater foundation in your life. He was saying

agree every day with me as I pray for you that your love will reach its fullest. You see, that's

what we need to pray every single day. God, would your love abound in me more and more in debt and

insight and knowledge and wisdom? You see, we have to learn to love well because the way we love,

how we show our love, the mercy we give, the grace we extend, you see, it's a direct impact on our

own life. The way we love has a direct impact on our own life. We need to learn to love well.

We can't just put our love on autopilot. We can't just push it, you know, on cruise control. Let's

just say that because we all have a cruise control on our car. We set the speed and go. We can't just

set the speed and allow it to stay the same all the time in every situation. We have got to understand

that our love has to mature. It has to develop and it has to grow and in order for it to do that,

we have to make a commitment to love because it's all about commitment, focus, and determination.

I mean, why do you pray? You pray because you want something to change. You're committed to it.
