Brothers and sisters, God loves us so much that He carried the cross, was stripped naked, bruised head, bruised jaw, pierced on His side, He bled, and nailed on the cross while alive. Dead and was buried, yes, the grave could not hold Him down because He conquered dead. It was not easy, but He did it for the sake of love, for the sake of our eternal life. Love that is so great. He even went down to the darkness and preached to the spirits giving them a chance of repentance.
God is love. The Book of John 3:16 tells us “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.”
GOD loves us regardless of our sins because “even when we were dead in trespasses, He made us alive together with Christ.” (Ephesians 2:5)
Lord, “What is mankind that You are mindful of them, human beings that You care for them? (Psalm 8:4) (NIV). Yahweh as the King of creation who made dependent humans His royal partners. This is unexpected and wonderful news to those who understand their need for God.
Psalm 144:3 also states, “O Lord, what is man that You regard him, or the son of man that you think of him? (Psalm 144:3)
“What is man, that You make so much of him, and that You set your heart on him? (Job 7:17).
(Hebrews 2:6-9) “What
is man that You are mindful of him,
Or the son of man that You take care of him? You have made him a little lower
than the angels; You have crowned him with glory and honor and set him over the
works of Your hands. You have put all things in subjection under his feet.”
For in that He put all in subjection under him, He left nothing that is not put under him. But now we do not yet see all things put under him, but we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels, for the suffering of death crowned with glory and honor, that He, by the grace of God, might taste death for everyone. (Hebrew 2:6-9). Once and for all.
It is finished. Amen!
God wants us to extend that love towards one another because love is of God. It is kingdom policy, for Scripture says, “Above all these, Put on love. Which is “The bond of perfection.” well pleasing to The Father and receive God’s peace. (Colossians 3:14)
Visit your neighbor that is sick, cook and clean for them.
