He who does not love does not know God, for God is love. 1 John 4:8
Read the bible, learn of God's love and then when you love even if it is not returned you will know within yourself that you know what it truly means to love.
God is love
Read the bible, learn of God's love and then when you love even if it is not returned you will know within yourself that you know what it truly means to love.
Nothing can separate us from the love of God
For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, 39 nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. - Romans 8:38-39
I hope we can appreciate the type of love God has for us. Nothing can separate us from His love -NOTHING. That is how great His love is for us, who else do you know can boast of such love? -NOBODY. Sometimes we have to be told we are loved and shown we are love before we understand the magnitude of that love but God tells us repeatedly and shows us over and over. Want to understand His love, read the bible, the best love story of all time. Thank you Father for loving us so much!
Joy comes in the morning
Weeping may endure for a night, But joy comes in the morning. Psalms 30:5
This just reminds us that everything has a beginning an end. Whatever you are going through, it may be the worst possible pain you may be experiencing but know that it too will not last forever. It has to end in Jesus name and when it does, a new season emerges where you are joyous.
The pain will only last for a time when darkness may be all you see but when morning comes, when the light of a new day shines upon you, joy will surely follow.
His favor is for life
For His anger is but for a moment, His favor is for life; Psalms 30:5
David's life was in jeopardy when as he describes at the beginning of this Psalms. He says that he cried to the Lord and the Lord heard him, brought his soul out of the grave and saved him that's why he gives thanks.
Sometimes we may be in the pit of death and still walk among the living. We may be so low that the only person who can truly save us in our Almighty Father. No matter how much we may anger Him know that when we start to walk in accordance to His word, His favor is for life. He is able to save us even from death. God's favor is what we should all desire, not his wrath.
God will fight our battles

"With him is an arm of flesh; but with us is the LORD our God, to help us and to fight our battles.” And the people were strengthened by the words of Hezekiah king of Judah. 2 Chronicles 32:8
"With him is an arm of flesh; but with us is the LORD our God, to help us and to fight our battles.” And the people were strengthened by the words of Hezekiah king of Judah. 2 Chronicles 32:8
King Hezekiah told the people this after Sennacherib king of Assyria invaded and destroyed their city. The people were discouraged after this but Hezekiah reminded them what their God is able to do.
In life we may forget that our God is here to help us and to fight our battles for us. Do not be dismayed by your troubles or how big they may seem. God is here to help his faithful servants and those who called on him. In the continuation of the chapter you will see where Hezekiah and the prophet Isaiah prayed to God after the king of Assyria sent message of how he will destroy them and also insulting God. After praying, God sent an angel and it killed all of his top officials and army and they were put to shame.
We have to know our God is able to do any and everything. Don't let anything scare you, nothing life can throw at you can compare to what God can do to deliver you.
