God has a rich storehouse of glory,
which He provides to strengthen and protect us with His mighty power
(Philippians 4:19). He does this in our soul and spirit, by the Holy Spirit and
Christ who dwell in us.
God helps us to plant our roots firmly
in His love by His dealings in our life. He teaches us to comprehend the firm
foundation, which He gives us for our faith in the fullness of His love (2
Timothy 2:19).
The richness of God's love is actually
multi-dimensional. It is so grand that it has width, length, height and depth.
He surrounds us in His love and allows us to experience its riches practically.
God's love exceeds our human
understanding and fills us through every part of our being with His whole Being
(Ephesians 2:16-20, Amplified Bible). The more submitted we are to His Spirit,
the more we feel God's love cascading like a waterfall over our body, soul and
spirit.
Our hope in God is never disappointed,
and we never feel shame for our faith in His faithfulness, because He pours out
His love into our heart and life (Romans 5:5).
As we wait for the manifestation of
Christ, His mercy, His perseverance and endurance in our life, God's love keeps
us (Jude 1:21; 2 Thessalonians 3:5). God's love is perfected in us as His
Spirit enables us to keep His commandments (Philippians 2:12-13; 1 John 2:5).
The love of God empowers us with mercy
and compassion for God's Body and for the whole world around us (1 John 3:17).
The steadfast love and faithfulness of the Lord never fail to watch over us
(Psalm 61:7).
Prayer:
Father God, we miss out on the riches
You already provided for us, because we are too busy with our own plans for our
life to concern our self with Your will for us. Remind us that You created us
for Your pleasure, not for our own (Ephesians 2:10).
Help us to experience the fullness of
Your love, so that we can share it with the world around us, which is full of
desperate people who are dying for a lack of Your presence in their life (Psalm
52:8).
Thought for the Day:
God proved His love for us by coming as
a man and dying in our place; and there is nothing in this earthly world or in
the spiritual world, which shall ever separate His Saints from His love. - Romans 8:31-39
