Love Never Fails, Fire From Heaven Falls
What to notice today
Today contrasts the spiritual power of genuine love with the corrupting influence of idolatry and false religion. Elijah's confrontation with Ahab and the prophets of Baal demonstrates that true faith produces undeniable signs, while 1 Corinthians 13 reveals that love is the greatest and most enduring spiritual gift—greater even than prophecy, knowledge, or faith itself. Paul's instruction to the Corinthians shows that all spiritual gifts are worthless without the foundation of sacrificial, patient love.
