His Love Changes Everything – Rhapsody Of Realities TeeVo Devotional March 14th

(To Know The Lord Is To Love Him)

TO THE BIBLE: Romans 5:8 KJV
“But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.”

LET’S TALK
Think about how much the Father loves us—it’s incredible! In 2 Corinthians 5:19, the Bible says, “God was in Christ, reconciling the world to Himself, not counting people’s sins against them.”

That’s amazing! But not everyone likes hearing about this love. Some people think teaching about God’s love and forgiveness gives others an excuse to sin. But that’s not true at all!

Here’s the truth: the more you learn about God’s love, the more you love Him. And when you love someone deeply, you don’t want to hurt or offend them.

Romans 2:4 reminds us, “It’s the goodness of God that leads us to repentance.” It’s not fear or judgment that draws us to Him—it’s His kindness and love.

God’s love doesn’t give us permission to sin; instead, it inspires us to love Him in return by living for Him.

Romans 6:1-2 puts it perfectly: “Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? God forbid!” When you truly understand how much God loves you, you naturally want to live in a way that honors Him.

Jeremiah 31:3 says, “I have loved you with an everlasting love; therefore, with lovingkindness I have drawn you.”

That everlasting love draws us closer to God and because we love Him, we keep His Word; we do what He wants. The Lord Jesus said, “If you love Me, keep My commandments” (John 14:15).

No one gets to truly know Jesus, how loving He is, without loving Him. The Bible says we know He loves us from the message He sent to us, and we received that message and came into fellowship with Him.

Now that you’re in fellowship with Him, all you want to do is to walk worthy of Him, pleasing Him in all things. His love changes everything!

Pray:
Loving Father, I’m forever grateful for the revelation of your boundless love demonstrated towards us through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ on the Cross. I walk worthy of you, pleasing you in all things; I’m compelled by your love to preach the Gospel and turn sinners from sin into righteousness and the glorious liberty of the sons of God, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
