Make God's Love Your Refuge Now by Dr. 'Tayo
Brown
"We know that whosoever is born of God (love) sinneth
not; but he that is begotten of God Keepeth himself, AND
THAT WICKED ONE TOUCHETH HIM NOT” 1 Jn 5: 18
“God (Love) is OUR REFUGE and strength, a very present
help in trouble” Ps 46: 1
“KEEP YOURSELVES IN THE LOVE OF GOD…”
Jude 21
Friends the enemy has always been spraying stray bullets,
the Lord does not want us to be ignorant of his devices, he
goes about like a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour,
and the only way he can get you is by getting out of Love.
His last days activities is primarily to take many people to
hell, Isaiah 5: 14 says hell has enlarged herself but heaven
does not need any enlargement, it’s made for all of human
race, as many as will believe.
When we refuse to keep ourselves in the love of God we
become a prey for the devil. It doesn’t matter whether we
speak in tongues prophesy, operate the gift of faith, give
our body to be burned, give our substance to the needy or
even pay huge tithes and offering, all of these become empty
when we are out of God’s love. Our faith to resist the devil
will not be effective because faith works by Love. What is
Love? God is Love, that is His nature, he is a God of love.
The world uses love in ways they don’t understand, God is
AGAPE. The love of God is to keep God’s commandments (1 Jn
5: 3) Jesus kept himself in God’s love while he was on earth
that is why the enemy can’t touch him. No one can kill Jesus
before the appointed time of the father, as a matter of fact
he willingly laid down his life when it’s time this is
because of the love of God that is saturating his life.
Majority today are encapsulated in fear, this is as a result
of not making Love their refuge.
1 Jn 4: 20 says if a man says I love God, I pay my tithes, I
do all sorts of activities for God, I go to prayer meetings
but yet hates his brother he is a liar, wait a minute, who
is a liar and the father of it? the devil of course, the
scriptures says in Love we live and move and have our being.
Our lives are hid in Christ with love. When we keep
ourselves in perfect love no fear of the devil can
intimidate us. No threat of terrorists can shake us because
we have made love our refuge. The enemy cannot touch us.

Dwelling in the Secret Place of the Most High
The 91st Psalm is a gift to the Church in the wilderness
(Acts 7: 38) to assure God’s children in all ages of His
providence in their earthly pilgrimage. If it was quoted in
our Lords temptation (by Satan) then it should be our every
day prayer.
God’s Remnant Assembly has designed a daily prayer for
spiritual warfare and strategy since 1995 using Psalm 91,
you can request for your free copy today. This prayer guide
rightly fits into the Lord’s prayer (Matt 6: 9-15) the
tabernacle of Moses (Ex 25: 1-9, 35: 4-38, Heb 8: 5, 9:
2-15) and it is like apples of gold in pictures of silver to
Psalm 91 (Pro 25: 11) Your prayer life will be more
effectual and fervent. We need to master God’s word,
fasting, prayer, walking in love, doing the word and leading
a fasted life these last days.

Parting Thoughts...
WHAT WILL BE SAID OF YOU WHEN YOU ARE GONE?
These are some of the labors of JOHN WESLEY (1703-1791)
He writes as if he had nothing to do but preach and
administers as if he has nothing to do but administer. He
preached for sixty-five years, dying finally at 88. His last
words were, “The best of all, God is with us” and the first
words of the hymn “I’ll praise my Maker while I’ve breath;
And when my voice is lost in death; Praise shall employ my
noblest powers.” and at about 10:00 in the morning,
“Farewell.” Without a groan, he fell asleep in Christ.
He left behind him 750 preachers in England and 350 in
America; 76,968 Methodists in England and 57,621 in America.
He, the ninth child of at least 13 children (three sons and
ten daughters), his brother Charles, a songwriter , and
other evangelist friends and followers would move all
England and eventually touch the world. He was, of course,
John Wesley. What a man of God!
