HIS LOVE YOUR OBEDIENCE
Our obedience to God reflects our love for Him.
“If you love Me, keep My commandments.” - John 14:15
However, I believe that in order for us to truly love God and obey Him, we must first become acquainted with the great love that He has for us.
“We love Him because He first loved us.” - 1 John 4:19
God the Father loves you. That’s a simple truth that can be overlooked or even forgotten but it’s that simple, yet deep and dynamic truth that sets you free from guilt, shame and any lie that the enemy has whispered to keep you from getting closer to God and in sin/disobedience.
“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 8:39
Sin once separated us from God but through the death and resurrection of Christ and our faith in Him, we have been reconciled to God the Father. So that we would not perish but have everlasting life and have a relationship with Him.
Christ died when we least deserved it, whilst we were still sinners. (Romans 5:8) Why? He was driven by a great love for you and I. This love is constant towards you!
The love of God doesn’t need to be earned, neither does His love change towards you, it stays the same. He doesn’t love you any less today than He did yesterday.
God is love and therefore He defines it. Abiding in God is abiding in love. You grow in the understanding of His heart towards you, by remaining in His word (scriptures) which is truth and it’s the truth that sets you free. (John 8:32)
It’s the awareness of this love, that will compel you to obey Him.
I heard someone ask once, how often do we actually pause to take in Gods affection towards us?
Who would we be and become if we actually received the love He had towards us? I mean really believed it.
His love shapes us and brings out the best in us.
Make it a habit each morning to remind yourself of the love that God has for you and make it your reality.
It will change the way you see yourself and others but above all it will change the way you live for God.
Prayer Points
- Ask God to pour out His love on your heart, through the Holy Spirit. (Romans 5:5)
- Ask that as He pours out His love, that it will impact the way you love others.
May the knowledge and the continuous awareness of His love, cause you to live a life that pleases Him.
