The Word, His Love

Father: Then I said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness, let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth." So I created you in My own Image, male and female, I created you. I blessed you, Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every living thing that moves on the earth.

God is love. He didn’t need us. But he wanted us. And that is the most amazing thing. ~ Rick Warren

Father: I show no partiality to princes, nor regard the rich more than the poor, for they are all the work of My hands. I am the LORD your GOD and I am in your midst, I am mighty to save and I rejoice over you with gladness; I will quiet you by My love; I will exult over you with loud singing. ~Job 34:19, Zephaniah 3:17

But you, O Lord, are a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness. ~ Psalm 86:15

Remember that God loves each of us as if there were only one of us. ~Augustine

Father: I gave my only begotten Son because I so love the world that I created; this I did so that whoever believes in Him, should not perish but have eternal life.While you were yet sinners, My Son died for you. O, how deep is My love for you. ~John 3:16, Romans 5:8

God surely listens, understands and knows the hopes and fears you keep in your heart. For when you trust His love miracles happen! ~Unknown

Yet in all these things, we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. For I am sure that neither death, nor life, nor angels. nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord. ~Romans 8:37-39

Beloved, how profound is the Father’s love for us?

Galatians 2:20 I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God. who loved me and gave himself for me.

Ephesians 2:4-5 But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ— by grace, you have been saved.

1 John 4:7-8 Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God. Anyone who does not love does not know God, because God is love.

1 John 4:9-11 In this the love of God was made manifest among us, that God sent his only Son into the world so that we might live through him. 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. Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.

1 Peter 5:6-7 Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time he may exalt you, casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you.

1 John 3:1 See what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God; and so we are. The reason why the world does not know us is that it did not know him.

GOD IS LOVE AND LOVE IS REAL!

BE BLESSED BELOVED,
