Please read 2 John.

Meditate on verses 5-6.
Now I ask you, lady, not as though I were writing to
you a new commandment, but the one which we
have had from the beginning, that we love one another.
And this is love, that we walk according to His commandments.
This is the commandment, just as you have heard from
the beginning, that you should walk in it.
John addressed the church (lady) with a command for all believers, to walk
in the commandment to love one another. Jesus said it this way in John
14:21:
“He who has My commandments and keeps them
is the one who loves Me; and he who loves Me will
be loved by My Father, and I will love him
and will disclose Myself to him.”
There is a remarkable promise in that verse. If you obey the LORD, then
you love Him, and God loves you in a special way by revealing Himself to
you through Jesus. Walk with the LORD in step with the Spirit (Galatians
5:25), and you will be able to obediently walk in love every day.
Pray, in the power of the Holy Spirit, 2 John 5-6 over yourself and those
for whom you stand guard as a faithful, prayerful watchman (Isaiah 62:6-
7).
“LORD, help _________ and me love one another.
Help us lovingly walk according to Your commandments.
In Your name, Jesus~”
