Step 1
“For God so loved the You,
that He gave His only begotten Son, that if you believe in Him. You will not perish, but have eternal life.
A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another, even as I have loved you, that you also love one another.
Step 2
I made a decision to accept love and be loved
“Therefore everyone who confesses Me before men, I will also confess him before My Father who is in heaven.
that if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved;
for with the heart a person believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation.
Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful;
By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God;
Step 3
Made an evaluation of how I have given love and taken love from others
The Excellence of Love
13 If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but do not have love, I have become a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. 2 If I have the gift of prophecy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge; and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. 3 And if I give all my possessions to feed the poor, and if I surrender my body to be burned, but do not have love, it profits me nothing.
4 Love is patient, love is kind and is not jealous; love does not brag and is not arrogant, 5 does not act unbecomingly; it does not seek its own, is not provoked, does not take into account a wrong suffered, 6 does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth; 7 bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
8 Love never fails; but if there are gifts of prophecy, they will be done away; if there are tongues, they will cease; if there is knowledge, it will be done away. 9 For we know in part and we prophesy in part; 10 but when the perfect comes, the partial will be done away. 11 When I was a child, I used to speak like a child, think like a child, reason like a child; when I became a man, I did away with childish things. 12 For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face; now I know in part, but then I will know fully just as I also have been fully known. 13 But now faith, hope, love, abide these three; but the greatest of these is love.
Step 4
Admitted to God, myself and another, of how I don’t feel worthy to be Loved
Therefore, confess your imperfections to one another, and pray for one another so that you may be healed. The effective prayer of a righteous man can accomplish much.
But if I do the very thing I do not want to do, I agree with the Law, confessing that the Law is good.
Fight the good fight of faith; take hold of the eternal life to which you were called, and you made the good confession in the presence of many witnesses.
Therefore, confess your imperfections to one another, and pray for one another so that you may be healed. The effective prayer of a righteous man can accomplish much.
Step 5
I am ready to receive love into my life right now!
And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or children or farms for My name’s sake, will receive many times as much, and will inherit eternal life.
And all things you ask in prayer, believing, you will receive.”
but you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be My witnesses both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and even to the remotest part of the earth.”
Peter said to them, “Say you are sorry, and each of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your imperfections; and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
to open their eyes so that they may turn from darkness to light and from the dominion of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and an inheritance among those who have been sanctified by faith in Me.’
Step 6
Humbly ask God to connect me to His Unconditional Love
And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect.
Therefore we do not lose heart, but though our outer man is decaying, yet our inner man is being renewed day by day.
and that you be renewed in the spirit of your mind,
and have put on the new self who is being renewed to a true knowledge according to the image of the One who created him—
He saved us, not on the basis of deeds which we have done in righteousness, but according to His mercy, by the washing of regeneration and renewing by the Holy Spirit,
Step 7
Make a list of those who I have Impacted negatively
for this is My blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for forgiveness of imperfections.
To give to His people the knowledge of salvation By the forgiveness of their imperfections,
Peter said to them, “Repent, and each of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your imperfections; and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of His grace
Now where there is forgiveness of these things, there is no longer any offering for sin.
