“For God so loved the world that, he gave his only begotten son, that
whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life” John 3:16
LIGHT FOR THE NOW: The love of God to you is expressed in the
gift of Christ.
Many claims to love but not many
have the ability to proof the love. Men love because of what they desire to
get. The love of man is conditional. This is why when that condition is not
met, disappointment will be inevitable. But the love of God to you is
unconditional. This is why He gave Jesus His only begotten son to die for you
in order to make you alive in Him. The place you were supposed to die, He sent
His son to take your place. This is why Bible says in Romans 5:8, “But God
commended his love towards us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died
for us.”
You see it was out of love that
God gave Jesus to die for you even when you were rotten deep in sin. You are
not qualified to be loved by God but He loves you still. Men can only love the
people who are good to them. But you don’t need to be good to be loved by God.
He loves you the way you are. He understands that you are weak, He understands
you can’t love Him the way He expect, so He had to send His own love to cover
your own love for Him. God is not looking for you to love Him. He only wants
you to believe and trust in the love He has for you so that you will not perish
in the hands of the enemy. This is why He says that whosoever believes in Jesus
will not perish but will have everlasting life. In the love of God, there is
eternal life for you. In His love, there is wealth and riches for you (2Cor
8:9) in His love, there is healing and perfect health for you (Is. 53:5). Everything
you need is this life and after this life is found in God’s love (2cor.9:8).
All you need is to believe in that love he has provided for you and you will be
counted among the saved and then harvest all that is there in the love.
Men only love when they have what
to gain from you, but God loves without expecting anything from you. It is
called ‘agape.’ It is an excess love extravagantly showered on an unqualified sinner.
In this love, your colour does not count, your language is not looked on, your
size is not measured, your status is not the standard, your location does not
matter and your appearance is not a determinant factor. The only standard is
Christ crucified and Him resurrected.
INSTRUCTION: Believe in the love of God.
PRAYER: Lord, thank you for loving me this much, in Jesus
name.
QUOTE:It is not your love that counts; it is the love of God
that counts.
