Psalm 37:4.
Introduction:
- 1. What love is deeper than humans can feel?
- 2. Love for God must overcome any feelings of our heart. He wants to be our top priority. Dt.6: 5: "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength.
I-FROM THE ANCIENT GOD HAS WANTED TO BE THE CENTER OF OUR LOVE.
- A- Jesus regarded this command as the first and most important of all (Mt 22.37, Mk 12.30; Lk 10.27). With all your heart ... your strength:
- B- The Deuteronomy not associate this term only the verb love (cf. 10.12, 30.6), but also verbs find (4.29), obey (30.10), back to the Lord (30.2) and meet the commandments (26.16).
- C- These verbs specify the forms that must take the love of God, in response to the love that he said first. 1 Jn 4.10.
II-WHAT PREVENTS THE MAN TO LOVE GOD WITH DEPTH ? Jn.3: 19.
- A- The darkness is a symbol of sin and bad habits. People do not want to give up their bad habits, so these are from loving God.
- B- Priorities in life steal our love of God, MT.6: 33.
III-THERE IS A GREAT REWARD IN THE LOVE OF GOD. Sal.37 4.
- A- tenderly Love the Lord ... God has to be as precious to us. Tenderness is the quality of gentleness, affection, love and kindness.
- B- And He will fulfill your deepest desires. The complacency that God is in our love is so great that it easily meets all our desires.
Conclusion:
- 1. Dt.6: 5 Love the Lord your God: This love is much more than a mere feeling or emotion within. Just as the Lord expressed his love for Israel freeing them from slavery in Egypt (Dt 4.37, 7.8), so Israel should express their love for God by obeying the commandments (Deuteronomy 11.1, 13, 22).
- 2. Let nothing keep us from the love of God.
- 3. the Lord Has fulfilled the desires of your heart?
