This Wednesday night we are worship with the word-ing John 15:13-17… and so I was studying for it tonight (I still am, but am taking a break to blog…) and so I biblegatewayed “great love” and, well, the Bible verses that came up made me feel excited
so I am sharing them here…
- “… the greatness of Your steadfast love…” Numbers 14:19
- “You have shown great and steadfast love…” 1 Kings 3:6
- “He is good; His love… endures forever.” Ezra 3:11
- “Show the wonder of Your great love, You who save by Your right hand those who take refuge in You from their foes.” Psalm 17:7
- “… Your great mercy and love… they are from of old.” Psalm 25:6
- “… great is Your love, reaching to the heavens…” Psalm 57:10
- “… great is Your love, higher than the heavens…” Psalm 108:4
- “… great is Your love toward me; You have delivered me from the depths of the grave.” Psalm 86:13
- “I will sing of the Lord’s great love forever…” Psalm 89:1
- “… as high as the heavens are above the earth, so great is His love for those who fear Him…” Psalm 103:11
- “Whoever is wise, let him heed these things and consider the great love of the Lord.” Psalm 107:43
- “… great is His love toward us…” Psalm 117:2
- “… His love endures forever.” Psalm 136:4
- “… in love You have delivered my life from the pit of destruction…” Isaiah 38:17
- “I will recount the steadfast love of the Lord… the abundance of His steadfast love.” Isaiah 63:7
- “… so great is His unfailing love.” Lamentations 3:32
- “… because of His great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions…” Ephesians 2:4-5
- “How great is the love the Father has lavished on us…” 1 John 3:1
… truly, there is NO greater love than this (John 15:13)
I get a funny feeling reading them… I feel moved by them… and yet I know they should move me so much more than they do… so I am going to stop blogging and keep studying and meditating on them
… cuz that’s something I really want in my blogging… I don’t want my blog to be my meditation time, I want it to be the overflow of what I learn in the times where it’s just me and God.
… oh but before I go, one more quick thought… read Psalm 107:43 again… meditating on His love is wisdom!! … that makes me excited
