LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, THERE IS NOTHING LIKE IT IN ALL THE EARTH!!!!
When God said in the beginning, "Let there be.." and from HIS words came forth all creation, (Genesis 1), HIS love has been on display. And since that time throughout ages, eons, days,months, years,decades, centuries, milleniums,before, during, after, ancient of days, and all other time specifications not mentioned here, God's amazing LOVE has been constant. GLORY TO GOD IN THE HIGHEST!!!! When I read THE LOVE BOOK aka THE BIBLE, I can see with spiritual eyes and hear with spiritual ears the LOVE oozing from its pages into a heart HE created and set up to receive from its creator. Years ago I use to rock out to a song called "tell it to my heart" by somebody and that is precisely what God does to HIS. He speaks to the Heart. It is a heart issue and HE communicates to the heart of a matter through the heart. The Scriptures state that " we belong to Christ and have already won the victory (why) cause greater is HE that is in you than he that is in the world"(1John 4:4).We know who is in the world, and the scriptures say we have won if JESUS is on the inside of you, is HE? Love caused a victory for us long before we got here and we still claim it, PRAISE GOD!!! Love has so many attributes connected to it and many are stated in the love chapter of THE LOVE BOOK, 1Corinthians 13, however I am going to go into another direction with LOVE. Part of my title for this posting is THERE IS NOTHING LIKE IT IN ALL THE EARTH,and so I shall go along those lines to talk about LOVE. He tells my heart that perfected love casts out fear a tormentor,(1John 4:18) so clearly MY GOD doesn't want me tormented in any sort of way,shape or form. Mentally or physically. Webster's Dictionary defines torment as intense pain or anguish; a source of pain or anguish. God says that LOVE flushes that out. When something gets flushed it is gone. So this perfect love that comes from Heaven has the ability within itself to cast out a tormentor - fear. WOW!! What else on earth can do that? God has manifested this great LOVE toward us when HE sent HIS BELOVED SON into this world to be the unblemish, perfect, nothing missing nothing broken, sacrifice to save the world.(1John 4:9-10, John 3:16).THERE WAS AND IS NOTHING ELSE IN ALL THE EARTH THAT COULD DO. Love is manifested for all who believe that Jesus is the Son of God,and that God loved us that much He made a way for all who believe to have everlasting life.LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!!! Jesus said himself when HE walked the earth in HIS earthly ministry that "God didn't send HIS SON into the world to condemn the world but to save the world through HIM".(John3:17) That sounds like a plan GOD created from the beginning, "a saving the world plan". Much like you plan for retirement when you are in your 20's although retirement is a long way off. That may not be the best example, but it is understandable in terms of plan ahead, which is what our LOVING HEAVENLY FATHER did for us. That is a LOVE plan for all creation. In the interim, God has constantly showed HIS great LOVE. HE commanded HIS love towards us even while we are yet sinners (Romans 5:8). He is rich in mercy,for this great LOVE He has for us, forgives us by grace and saved us and raised us up causing us to sit TOGETHER in HEAVENLY PLACES in CHRIST JESUS. (Ephesians 2:4-6) I have hope cause of HIS great mercy towards me which are new morning by morning, day to day, He is compassionate and faithful. (Lamentations3:21-23). LOVE,LOVE,LOVE, THERE IS NOTHING LIKE IT IN ALL THE EARTH!!! Read more of Ephesians and see if you can understand how wide, long, deep and high, His LOVE is, it is beyond understanding.Ephesians 3:14-21. I read the LOVE BOOK and when I come across HIS WORDS that speak such things to my heart as " He will deliver me and set me on high because I have set my love on HIM",(Psalm 91:14), I can't help but shout praises and love to HIM.While I can honestly say that my love can be hot and cold, God's LOVE is faithful and true at all times and nothing can take HIS LOVE from me. Romans 8 clearly states that NOTHING, NO THING, shall be able to seperate GOD's LOVE from us. The list of things starting in verse 35-39, list all sorts of things that can happen, attempt to happen, will happen, whatever, but that GOD'S LOVE is massive and nothing can deplete it. THERE IS NOTHING LIKE IT IN ALL THE EARTH!! WOW!!! What manner of LOVE is this? Jesus said "if you love me, keep my commandments" (John 14:15,15:17) and to love one another was one of those commandments. Thank God for Grace!!!LOVE, LOVE, LOVE THERE IS NOTHING LIKE IT IN ALL THE EARTH!! I love LOVE!! It is the greatest of these: faith, hope, love. 1Corinthians 13:13. I love you, GOD LOVES YOU,and Jesus is LORD!!! Revelation 1:5.
