THE UTMOST COMMENDATION OF GOD’S LOVE

Levie Gomagoma Romans 5:8
But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
Romans 5:8

Several years ago someone asked me a question, "if God really loves us why then is there so much suffering in the world?" He said those words while getting my attention on some people living in abject poverty. To that person if these people were living in good conditions, then he would agree that God loves us. While good living standards reflect God's kind and loving heart, you must understand that there are satanic influences which intrude through the systems of governance to deprive people of what God has made available for them. This is also exacerbated by the selfishness of men manifested in their hatred for each other. The bible says in the last days people shall be selfish and devoid of natural affection (1 Timothy 3:1-3). Furthermore many suffer for the lack of knowledge (Hosea 4:6). Today I want to tell you of God's utmost commendation or sign of His love for humanity. This is what our opening scripture is about. God's pure love was manifested to us when Jesus came and died for us. He did this while we were yet sinners. This should be the convincing sign of God's love to you more than any material possession you can ever have. This was the pinnacle of His demonstration of love to humanity. Don't allow Satan deceive you that God doesn't love you because you don't have something. Jesus called Satan a native liar and father of lies (John 8:44). Be careful also on who you consult and seek solace of advice from in this life. Some are satanic mouth pieces to sway you from the truth of God. 1 John 4:9 NIV gives an eye opening declaration, "This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him". This is the way you know that God loves you and any reliable and durable form of prosperity stems from this truth. Anything that is not connected to this truth has no solid foundation. That is why Romans 8:32 enlightens us, "He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?" God's supplies are firmly assured because He gave the best for us, His only begotten Son, Jesus. This is God's highest sign that He loves you.

Prayer
I acknowledge that God loves me because He sent Jesus to die for me. His love is my banner of comfort and protection. In His love I am fully supplied. In Jesus name.
