    DAILY DEVOTION WITH QUEEN ANGELA DAY 18 LOVE IN ACTION 1 JOHN 318
    Jul 18 2025
    DAY 18: LOVE IN ACTIONScripture: 1 John 3:18 New International Version (NIV):Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth.King James Version (KJV):My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth.English Standard Version (ESV):Little children, let us not love in word or talk but in deed and in truth.New Living Translation (NLT):Dear children, let’s not merely say that we love each other; let us show the truth by our actions.Meaning: This verse encourages believers to express love not just in what they say, but through their actions and sincerity. True Christian love is demonstrated through what we do for others, not just with kind words.Affirmation: I demonstrate love through my actions.Word of the Day: KindnessLet kindness guide your actions today. One small, intentional act can create a ripple effect—touching lives in ways you may never see. Be the reason someone believes in God’s love in action!IntroductionWelcome to Day 18 of our devotional journey! Today’s focus is a transformative truth: love is much more than just words; it is fully realized in our actions. In a world full of empty promises and fleeting affection, Jesus calls us to love in a way that makes a tangible difference. Let’s explore how we can move from saying “I love you” to showing “I love you”—every single day.Backstory: The Foundation (1 John 3:18)“Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth.” — 1 John 3:18 (NIV)John, known as the apostle of love, writes these words to an early church wrestling with how to live out their faith in practical terms. He knew that love isn’t just a sentiment. In a time when the world was mostly hostile to Christians, he urged believers not to simply talk about love, but to live it—meeting practical needs, showing kindness, and serving sacrificially.Powerful Detailed LessonIt’s easy to say “I love you,” but genuine love is proven by what we do. Jesus was not content with giving motivational talks—He demonstrated love with every step, from feeding the hungry (Mark 6:34-44), to washing the disciples’ feet (John 13:12-15), to laying down His life for us all (John 15:12-13). The world sees our faith most clearly not when we preach, but when we practice.James underscores this truth: "Suppose a brother or a sister is without clothes and daily food. If one of you says to them, 'Go in peace; keep warm and well fed,' but does nothing about their physical needs, what good is it?" — James 2:15-16 (NIV)If our actions don’t match our words, our love is hollow. Real love enters messy situations, rolls up its sleeves, and gets involved.3 Powerful Detailed TakeawaysDive Deeper: 3 Transformative Lessons on Love1. Authentic Love Demands More than Words Key Verse: “Let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth.” (1 John 3:18) True love isn’t just something we talk about—it’s something we do. This lesson challenges us to move beyond well-meaning words and step into genuine, practical service. Reflect: How can you put love into action for someone in need this week?2. Love is Our Loudest Witness Key Verse: “By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.” (John 13:35) The world recognizes Jesus through our acts of love. Our kindness and unity become unmistakable proof of our faith. Pause and consider: What do your actions say about your faith to those watching? How can you show Christ’s love more boldly?3. Compassion Creates Lasting Change Key Verse: “If anyone has material possessions and sees a brother or sister in need but has no pity on them, how can the love of God be in that person?” (1 John 3:17) When we open our hands and hearts to others, God works in and through us—transforming both the giver and the receiver. Take a moment to reflect: Where are opportunities around you to be an agent of God’s compassion today?Let these lessons sink in. Take time to meditate on these truths and ask, “How can I make love visible in my life?” For further study, read the full passages and journal about ways you can embody authentic, Christ-like love each day.3 Powerful How to ApplyRadically Meet Needs—TodayDon’t wait for a perfect moment—open your eyes to the needs right in front of you. Is there a neighbor struggling with groceries? A coworker feeling invisible? Step up and meet that need wholeheartedly. Bring a homemade meal to a family going through crisis. Offer a listening ear—or even just a smile—to someone weighed down by stress. When you respond to these everyday opportunities with humility and generosity, you become a living extension of Jesus’ love. Remember His promise: “Give, and it will be given to you.” (Luke 6:38) What you sow in kindness returns in ways you can’t imagine.2. Serve Where It Hurts—Give Until It CostsTrue service isn’t about convenience—it’s about...
