What kind of Love? – 1 Chronicles 6
Feb 16, 2013 - 1 Chronicles 6
Dear Saints,
Today we prayerfully Feast in 1 Chronicles 6.
Once in a while it \is hard to see
what God is trying to say to us. As we
read today his love should shine on our hearts. Because of Jesus we can approach the Holy
of Holies, as only the Levites could. “ 1 The sons of
Levi: Gershon, Kohath, and Merari..”1 Chronicles 6:20, English Standard
Version (ESV). By whom have we been
loved more than our awesome God! “ In this is love, not that we have loved God but that he
loved us and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.” 1 John
4:10 ESV. Today the Feast will
feature; Devotional Series On Loving God ! By Pastor Glen Aycock. Posted 2/16/2013
THE LOVE OF GOD
SCRIPTURE: ROMANS 5:5-8; ROMANS 8:38-39
Ro 5:5 We’re not ashamed to have this confidence,
because God’s love has been poured into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, who
has been given to us.
Ro 5:8 Christ died for us while we were still sinners.
This demonstrates God’s love for us.
Ro 8:38 I am convinced that nothing can ever
separate us from God’s love which Christ Jesus our Lord shows us. {The last
part of verse 39 (in Greek) has been moved to verse 38 to express the
complex Greek sentence structure more clearly in English.} We can’t be
separated by death or life, by angels or rulers, by anything in the present
or anything in the future, by forces
DEVOTIONAL: ETERNAL LOVE
We cannot
imagine how awesome the love of God is toward us. Romans 5:8 explains that
Christ died for us while we were actively pursuing sin and being pursued by
sin. Our motives were based on selfishness and not righteousness. We were
willful sinners. God chose to
demonstrate His love for us by sending his Son to pay the price of sin on
the cruel cross. Would you have stayed faithful to the mission of rescuing
those who did not love you? I don’t know about you but I think I would have
lost it when I was spit on and beaten and gang punched. How amazing that
love is and how can we doubt it. It is through Jesus we find true love.
This is a love that does not fade and we cannot be separated from it by:
·
Death
·
Life
·
Anything
present
·
Anything
in the future
·
Forces
of demonic attack
Prayer Thought:
Dear Jesus thank you for pouring God’s love into our heart. We so need you
in our hearts and we praise you for your eternal love. Let us live
demonstrating your love to our fellow man. Amen

God Bless you,

“A new commandment I
give to you, that you love one another: just as I have loved you, you also
are to love one another. By this all people will know that you are my
disciples, if you have love for one another.” John 13:34-35 ESV.
