GOD'S LOVE:

in #steemchurch6 years ago

Text: I John 4: 7-12.

Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God.
He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.
In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him.
Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.
Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another.
No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us.

"No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us.” 1 John 4:12. If you're like most people, you have photos in your home of the people who mean the most to you. You may enjoy showing these photos to others and reliving the special moments captured. But have you ever thought about having a picture of God in your house? It may not be in a frame on the shelf, but today's scripture tells us that when we love others, we are creating a picture of God. We are showing others what He looks like because God is love.

The love of God is the perfection, goal and excellence that man should always seek to pursue. Love is an intense desire to please God and do good to others; as well as share in others disposition and offer help at a cost to us. When we show this kind of love to others, we experience bestowed favour and an affectionate attachment to God and others. Understand today that God wants us to know Him, and He wants to reveal Himself to the world through us. He wants us to display His love and share it with others. 1 Corinthians 13 tells us what love looks like. Take a few minutes each day and let that scripture sink down into your heart. Remember, you are never more like God than when you love others. Love is the greatest thing. Everything else will fade away, but His love is a picture that will last forever

His love for us and for our salvation the eternal Son of God himself became a man, suffered great trials and tribulation, especially in his death for our sins, was buried, and was raised the third day.

Ephesian 3:14 -21:

For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named,
That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man;
That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love,
May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height;
And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God.
Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,
Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.
