Be careful that your devotion to Me does not become another form of works. I want you to come into My Presence joyfully and confidently. You have nothing to fear, for you wear My own righteousness. Gaze into My eyes, and you will see no condemnation, only Love and delight in the one I see. Be blessed as My Face shines radiantly upon you, giving you Peace.
“Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends.”- JOHN 15:13
“The Lord your God is with you, he is mighty to save. He will take great delight in you, he will quiet you with his love, he will rejoice over you with singing.”- ZEPHANIAH 3:17
“The Lord make his face shine upon you and be gracious to you; the Lord turn his face toward you and give you peace.”- NUMBERS 6:25-26__________________________________________________________
Do you rejoice when you get to come worship with God? Do you get excited to hear His word? Or do you sigh because you are tired and feel like you don't have time to praise our King.
God wants us to come to him with joy and relief. He does not want us to feel like we have to go to work for His love. God's love is unconditional. We are loved no matter what by our heavenly Father. Like we have talked about before with our earthly parents who love us no matter how we behave, our heavenly Father's love is the same love, but 100x greater. It is hard for us to come to terms with something like this. Why would God love us when we are all sinners? God is mighty to save, He is mighty to save. Forever He will be the author of our salvation. Accept the peace that God shines upon us. We shall not fear, this peace will lead us through our lives and to our heavenly home.
When you go to church tonight or tomorrow or the next time you open your Bible to study the word of the Lord, relax. Take a deep breath knowing that you do not have to work for God, because His love is unconditional.
