God loves you and wants you to experience peace and eternal life—abundant and eternal.
The Bible says;
Romans 5:1
"We have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ."
John 3:16 "For God so loved the world, that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life."
"I [Jesus] came that they may have life and have it abundantly."
HOSEA 2:19-20 19 And I will betroth thee unto me forever; yea, I will betroth thee unto me in righteousness, and in judgment, and lovingkindness, and mercies. 20 I will even betroth thee unto me in faithfulness: and thou shalt know the Lord.
God occasionally uses marriage, the most intimate bond between two human adults, to represent His connection with His people.
The Lord is attempting to explain to us His feelings by way of this illustration: His intense love for His people and the suffering brought on by their disloyalty and lack of love for Him.
EPHESIANS 5:31-32 31 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh. 32 This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church.
God is a living being, just like you are. God is an individual. More than you, he does not appreciate being disregarded, mistreated, or insulted. For our benefit, God always follows His Word and is not influenced by His emotions.
God does not intend to compel us to carry out His will. He wants us to voluntarily want to do His will. God doesn't enjoy making us obey His commands or love Him.
God has already taken the initiative and is now waiting for our response. He put his love for us first and showed it at Calvary.
Naturally, the devil, the father of lies, makes every effort to convince us that God isn't deserving of our love. Such a falsehood!
Prayer: I will not let God down because He wants a deep relationship with me.
