God So Loved the World
Dr RJ Sing
“ As he saith also in Osee, I will call them my people, which were not my people; and her beloved, which was not beloved”
The sooner we realise and accept that God loves us the sooner we will see many manifestations in our lives. God wants us to know that He loves us wholeheartedly. He is our Abba Father, Father to the fatherless.
This may sound strange and difficult to receive to someone that never experienced love in their lives. It may even sound preposterous that such a big God can love a human. But He says in His word, “For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.” (Jeremiah 29:11) That scripture alone shows us how much God loves us.
He gave his son for us so that we could receive eternal life and be called the righteousness of God. He has and still wants to do great and wonderful things for us. God’s love is more than enough for us. God’s love for us is what motivated Him to send Christ into the world to save us. Christ paid for our sins, which had separated us from Him. This sacrifice not only brings us peace with God, it also brings us into a personal, loving relationship with Him.
