[Genesis 15:1.]
Love casts out Fear" [1 John 4:18]
Whatever is perfect has no blemish and lasts forever, and so says
The Lord - "I have loved you with an everlasting love"[Jeremiah 31:3]
Being loved with a perfect and everlasting Love means it is a love
that will not let go! - The Lord has not given up on you, that's why
Paul goes to great lengths in 1 Corinthians 13 about love. There are
three things that we associate everything in Life too and they are
Faith:- We either believe in something and trust or we don't.
Hope:- We either have hope about life or we lose hope and
become depressed.
Love:- Love is the governing factor in everything we do and we
don't work well with anything if it is without love and of
course if we haven't got the Love of God we haven't got a
right attitude about anything because our love is faulty
and can be very self-centred.
So the first thing of importance is , there is no need to fear,
because His love will not fail you!
Jesus Christ is your Shield, and once again
because He Loves you. What you love you will shield at any cost
particularly if it is a "perfect love"!
How Wonderful is "this Great love wherewith He Loved us"
[Ephesians2:4]
There is much danger along the way and that's how it was with
Abraham to whom The Lord gave this promise to be his shield.
We can trust in The Lord to Shield us completely as David also
said - "for Thou O Lord art a shield for me; my glory and the lifter
of my head" [Psalm 3:3.]
How wonderful that The Lord said that He,
Himself was not only Abraham's shield (and who or what can get
past The Lord to separate from His Blessing) but also his....
..... It is absolutely impossible to measure such
a reward, because The Lord Himself is that reward: that's why Paul
says in Ephesians 3:8 "To preach among the gentiles the
unsearchable riches of Christ" and further declares Paul, in
Ephesians 1:3. "Blessed with All Spiritual blessings in Heavenly
places in Christ" and also in another place...
[1 Corinthians 3:21-23.]
How Great is your reward in the Lord.
Jesus Loves You
God bless you much as you meditate on such a Great Reward
and blessing.
