THE LOVE OF GOD KNOWS NO BOUND

“There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.” 1 John 4:18 KJV

The love of God knows no bound. That is why it is called Agape. That is why it is called perfect love. The love of God is a perfect love that casts out fear. Human love loves you as long as he doesn’t know some of your secrets. The moment he knows some of your secrets, he begins to reduce his love. But God’s love loves you in and out. God’s love tells you: I will never leave you nor forsake you. I am always with you. You can never be alone. That is God’s love. Think of what it will do to you when you wake up every morning and remember that He who owns the universe loves you dearly. He loves you to the point that He cannot do without you. Think of it!

In the book of Ephesians 3:16-19, Apostle Paul prayed that the Church will be strengthened with might by His Spirit in the inner man. He prayed that we may be able to know the love of Christ which passeth knowledge and to be filled with all the fullness of God. The Church needs to know this love. How does He love me?  I am a criminal yet He still loves me. How do I understand that?  It is a revelation!  It is the love that “passeth” knowledge.

In spite of your weakness, your shortcoming, your mistakes and your inadequacies, God still loves you.  This love is unconditional! It is irrevocable! It is blood-bought and iron-clad.  Nothing can change it. And because nothing can change it, He is favourably disposed to dispense only good to you. He will not watch you die of that sickness because of His love for you. The Church must leverage on this love that does not fail.
