Let’s talk about Love: What is Love according to the Bible?
A few days ago, we explored the devotional Let love be your highest goal.
We know that God wants us to love, more than anything else. Love is super important!
We want love to be our highest goal, by God’s grace.
We want to excel in love, to the glory of God!
But what is this love we are always talking about, anyway?
What is love according to the Bible???
Let’s talk about love today!
According to the Bible:
Love is patient. Love is kind. Love does not envy others. Love does not boast. Love is not proud.
Love does not dishonor others. Love it is not self-seeking. Love is not easily angered. Love keeps no record of wrongs.
Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.
Love always protects. Love always trusts. Love always hopes. Love always perseveres. Love never fails!
(Adapted from 1 Corinthians 13:4-7, NIV)
Dear Friends, today we are once again reminded that Life is temporary, but love is eternal!
1 John 3:18, NLT Dear children, let’s not merely say that we love each other; let us show the truth by our actions.
Hebrews 10:24, NLT Let us think of ways to motivate one another to acts of love and good works.
Philippians 2:4, ESV Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others. See also: Let love rule your life; Love is not optional; God needs our love; Gossip kills; What is God’s love like?
Romans 15:5-6, NIV May the God who gives endurance and encouragement give you the same attitude of mind toward each other that Christ Jesus had, so that with one mind and one voice you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Ephesians 3:20-21, NKJV Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen.
Romans 15:33, ESV May the God of peace be with you all. Amen.
