HEAR GOD’S LOVE FOR YOU

Psalm 143:8 NLT Let me hear of your unfailing love each morning, for I am trusting you. Show me where to walk, for I give myself to you. 

I wonder what you hear first thing in the morning? Is it the radio, the TV, the birds singing outside, or just your own thoughts? There again, what would you like to hear?

The psalmist David asked God to let him hear God’s unfailing love each morning and I thought what a great start to our day, to our week that would be. So, let’s do that today as we hear God speak to us through His word.😊

God shows us His love. But God showed his great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners. Romans 5:8 NLT

God’s love draws us to Himself.  … “I have loved you, my people, with an everlasting love. With unfailing love I have drawn you to myself. Jeremiah 31:3 NLT

God’s love supports us. I cried out, “I am slipping!” but your unfailing love, O Lord, supported me. Psalm 94:18 NLT

We can’t be separated from God’s love. No power in the sky above or in the earth below—indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 8:39 NLT

God’s love can be trusted. We know how much God loves us, and we have put our trust in his love. 1 John 4:16 NLT

So whatever you have to do today, or wherever you have to go this week, be assured that you are surrounded by God’s unfailing love and He is supporting you in all you do. And not only that, you can share His love with someone else as well. 

What a lovely way to begin the week knowing we are enveloped in His love.😊 Amen.

UNASHAMEDLY EXUBERANT!

Psalm 150 NLT 
1 Praise the Lord!
Praise God in his sanctuary;
praise him in his mighty heaven!
2 Praise him for his mighty works;
praise his unequaled greatness!
3 Praise him with a blast of the ram’s horn;
praise him with the lyre and harp!
4 Praise him with the tambourine and dancing;
praise him with strings and flutes!
5 Praise him with a clash of cymbals;
praise him with loud clanging cymbals.
6 Let everything that breathes sing praises to the Lord!
Praise the Lord!


Isn’t it wonderful to know God’s greatness is unequalled?
We’ll never wake up one morning and suddenly discover there’s someone more powerful! Our God always was, and always will be, the majestic, Lord of All who reigns supreme for evermore, and yet with loving kindness and mercy He stooped down to draw us to Himself. Hallelujah!

The psalmist is encouraging us to praise God wherever we happen to be, in church, or out of it. Praise Him with whatever we have to hand and if it’s just to clap our hands in praise, then let’s do it for His honour and glory.

As the writer goes on he’s making a point that it needs to not be quiet or reserved but unashamedly exuberant and if it means banging two saucepan lids together to make a joyful noise to the Lord, then let’s do it.😊

However you want to praise God today, let’s do it whole heartedly to honour the Lord of Lords, the Redeemer of our souls, our soon coming King. Let’s shout out our praises whether we’re in the sanctuary or in the kitchen and let our loving Father know we love Him and we’re so, so thankful He is our great God.😊 In Jesus name. Amen.
