GOD’S IS A LOYAL LOVE! –
“One thing God has spoken,
two things I have heard:
“Power belongs to you, God,
and with You, Lord, is unfailing love” – {Psalm 62:11-12}
Kingdom’s fail, empire’s fail, economy’s fail, governments fail, marriages can fail, business’s can fail, health can fail, finances can fail. We live in a world of uncertainty “BUT GOD…” His love is UNFAILING.It cannot fail for He cannot Fail and God IS Love! God’s Love is not “wishy washy,”… “maybe,”… “if’y,” uncertain, inconsistent, ever changing, like the wind, but is LOYAL…His is a Faithful, Steadfast, Unchanging, Irrevocable, unbreakable Love, and nothing or no one can sever His Love for you! LOYALTY is His Love! Unfailing Love! For He is Loyal!
Psalm 62 The Psalmist EXPRESSES his Trust in the LORD- V 2-8; He EXHORTS others to Trust the LORD…it is to be taken as a Psalm of trust in the LORD, both his personal trust and a call to others to trust Him. And that includes trust in His Power and Trust in His LOVE… His mercy, Unfailing lovingkindness, Loyal Love!
“… To Him also belongs steadfast love. The predominant meaning of “chesedh,” when used of God, is faithfulness, firmness, His “sure love.” “The most important of all the distinctive ideas of the OT is God’s steady and extraordinary persistence in continuing to love the wayward Israel.” This is what the psalmist proclaims to the people. To him it is a fact of life that the steadfast love of the Lord never ceases.” -{ Restoration quarterly}
People have relied, trusted in financial security, prestige, military and political might, personal skills, educational degrees, etc… and all are inviting, appealing to the flesh but as are solid as walking across a deep swamp, no firm foundation, sinking unstable, untrustworthy…a mirage, a dangerous, eternal danger, “But God…” He is trustworthy, His Word a solid foundation. Only confidence in The LORD THROUGH EXPERIENCING HIM, His Power, His unfailing Love, steadfast, solid foundation, can we learn faith, experience His peace and composure in the midst of difficulties, great difficulties, severe trials. His Power, His Love, His Word is our sure foundation…and whom we testify to others to encourage them in their difficulties to confide and place all their confidence continually in Him! God’s power and God’s love…we have experienced, and we encourage others, through testifying of Him.
Consider His desire, demonstration of His love made known for you to know…
“Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? As it is written: “For your sake we face death all day long; we are considered as sheep to be slaughtered.”
“No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons,[b] neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”-{Rom 8:35-39}
We Read of His Love in His Word…
“For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son,… ” -{John 3:16}; ” But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” -{Rom 5:8}. “This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down His life for us.” -{1 John 3:16}. “And hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us. ” -{Rom 5:5}. ” I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me.“-{Gal 2;20}. ” To Him who loves us and has freed us from our sins by His blood, and has made us to be a kingdom and priests to serve his God and Father—to Him be glory and power for ever and ever! Amen. “-{Rev 1:5-6}
Speak to yourself of His character in your troubles. It is IMPERATIVE you listen to God’s Word, so as to dwell your mind on truth, strengthen your faith and see things from heaven’s perspective as they truly are, “walking by faith and not by sight!” God’s love is steadfast, loyal, unchanging, everlasting, personal!
