Celebrate Valentine's Day With Inspirational Bible Verses About Love


You shall love the Lord Your God with all your heart,
with all your soul, 
with all your strength, and with all your mind,
and your neighbor as yourself.
(Luke 10:27) 
 
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.
For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world,
but that the world through Him might be saved.
(John 3:16 & 17)


Many waters cannot quench love, nor can the floods drown it.
If a man would give for love all the wealth of his house,
it would be utterly despised.
(Song of Solomon 8:7)
 
Greater love has no one than this,
than to lay down one's life for his friends.
(John 15:13)


But God demonstrates His own love toward us,
in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
(Romans 5:8)
  
Behold what manner of love the Father has
bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God!
Therefore the world does not know us,
because it did not know Him.
(1 John 3:1)
 
And we have known and believed the love
that God has for us. God is love, and he who abides
in love abides in God, and God in him. 
(1 John 4:16)

Devotion: The Glory of the Lord

The Lord speaking to the prophet Habakkuk about His righteous judgments declared, "For the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord as the waters cover the sea." (Habakkuk 2:14)


If we want to behold God's glory, it can be seen and known in His character. Moses besought the Lord to see His glory and the Lord said to him, "I will make all my goodness pass before thee, and I will proclaim the name of the Lord before thee; and will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will show mercy on whom I will show mercy." And He said, "Thou canst not see My face: for there shall no man see me, and live." And the Lord said, "Here is a place by Me, and you shall stand on the rock. So it shall be, while My glory passes by, that I will put you in the cleft of the rock, and will cover you with My hand while I pass by. Then I will take away My hand, and You shall see My back; but My face shall not be seen." (Exodus 33:19-23)

So the Lord hid Moses in the rock and passed before him and proclaimed, "The Lord, the Lord God, merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abounding in goodness and truth, keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, by no means clearing the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children and the children's children to the third and fourth generation." (Exodus 34:6 & 7)

In the Book of John:
"And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth. (John 1:14)

Praise God who has saved us by His grace, whose glory fills the lives of His children. "But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord." (2 Corinthians 3:18)

"For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I shall know just as I also am known." (1 Corinthians 13:12)

"Beloved, now we are children of God; and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be, but we know that when He is revealed, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is." (1 John 3:2)

Glory to God! The day cometh, when we shall behold Him face to face, in all of His glory. Live for Jesus; proclaim His name in all the earth. Amen.

Everlasting Word

The Lord, He alone is God. In Isaiah 40, God speaks comfort to His people and declares His sovereign majesty. Herein, God illustrates the everlasting nature of His Word. "The grass withers, the flower fades, but the Word of our God stands forever." (Isaiah 40:8)



A Prayer:

Holy, gracious Father, You have created all things and without You, we can do nothing. There is none to be compared with You. You alone deserve our worship. Incline our hearts to heed your words and walk in Your ways. Thank You for Your precious promises; Your comforts delight the soul. In Your holy name, we pray. Amen.

Happy New Year!


All glory, honor, praise and thanksgiving to the Great Shepherd! "For the Lord is good; His mercy is everlasting, and His truth endures to all generations." (Psalm 100:5)

As we stand on the threshold of a new year, we know not what the future holds, but we can trust the Lord our God, with all our heart, for He has promised never to leave us nor forsake us. The Overseer of our souls is all knowing, all wise, all powerful. No one or anything can pluck us out of His hand. We are the sheep of His pasture and He will direct our steps in His will and purpose, as we trust and obey His voice. In His care, we need not fear. Nothing shall separate us from His love. Like His servant David, we too can say, "Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life; and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever." (Psalm 23:6)

Amen.

Lord, speak to my heart, every waking second of the day...
