Love God with all Your Soul and Strength.

Love God with all your soul and strength.
With all your heart and mind;
And love your neighbor as yourself:
Be faithful, just, and kind.

Deal with another as you’d have
Another deal with you:
What you’re unwilling to receive,
Be sure you never do.

(Author: Isaac Watts (1715)

Reflection. The Creator made humanity to love Him. Almighty God loves us with His unceasing and His unconditional LOVE. God loved us first.

Scripture Reading: 1 John 4:19 NIV says “We love because He first loved us.” (Bing, 08/04/2024)

Almighty God is love. The sacred and the divine principle of God, the Almighty One. The Father first loves humanity. Giving all His people the capacity to love God and then to love others.

These four words, “He first loves us.” Speak directly to our open hearts. These precious words tell of the immensity of our Father’s love. God is love. God did not create humanity because He needed to be loved. Almighty God in His Heaven. Before He created people. God the Creator was complete. God in three Persons — God the Holy Trinity. God needed no one. God did not need to be loved.

God Almighty in Heaven was complete. The Almighty One was and is loved. By the Son and the Holy Spirit. The Almighty One in Heaven. Was and is in eternal loving companionship. Loved by the Son and the Holy Spirit. The creator needed no one to love Him. He created humanity out of and by His love.

God Almighty is the creator of all there is. This includes His most wondrous creation — LOVE. As a creation. Love is sacred and is divine. God’s love is powerful. God’s love has the power to change lives and fix broken hearts. Almighty God’s love has the capacity to heal and to save souls. Our Father’s love gives you and I the ability to love our God and others.

Scripture Readings: Know therefore that the Lord your God is God, the faithful God who keeps covenant and steadfast love with those who love Him and keep His commandments, to a thousand generations. (Deuteronomy 7:9, ESV)

Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time He may exalt you, casting all your anxieties on Him, because He cares for you. (1 Peter 5:6–7, ESV)

It is only because Almighty God first loved the entire world. Through and by His unceasing and unconditional love. Our Creator made you and me to love Him — ALWAYS and COMPLETELY. God Almighty fills our hearts with such an amazing capacity to love others also.

God is the perfect creator. Almighty God hangs around to ensure all His creations are provided for — AT ALL TIMES.

Loving Almighty God and others is only made possible. Because Almighty God first loved us. By daily meditating on God’s Holy Word. We learn of God’s love.

Creation could not have been before its creator. Almighty God was before everything He created. This of course, included the most wondrous of His creations — LOVE. The Almighty One takes the initiative — AT ALL TIMES. This fortunately applies for our sacred and divine capacity to love God our Father and others.

Scripture Reading: Deuteronomy 10:12 NIV states that “the LORD your God asks of you to fear Him, to walk in obedience to Him, to love Him, to serve Him with all your heart and with all your soul.”

So be very careful to love the Lord your God. (Joshua 23:11, NIV)

Every day Almighty God pours into our lives and into our open hearts. His amazing love. Our Father showers into our days so many blessings. So many blessings, it is beyond our imaginations to comprehend His love. The Holy Word of God is a gift of love. A blessing to be used to learn of God and His love.

Scripture Reading: God Is Love.

Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God. Anyone who does not love does not know God, because God is love. (1 John 4:7–8, ESV)

You and I have a God who is our source and our foundation. What a comfort God’s unfailing love is. God’s love fills and overflows. We are blessed by God’s unfailing love. There is no aspect of our lives. That God’s soothing and calming love does not cover.

When we recognize God as the source of all love, we can rely on Him to give us the strength and ability to love others with His love. He has unfailing love for us, and He has unending love to flow through us to our neighbors.

We are to love others because God loves us. (ask about my faith blog)

We are loved so completely by God the Almighty One. God accepts us as we are.

Walking in loving and in peaceful companionship with our Heavenly Father. Almighty God accepts us as we are. Stepping into the loving presence of the One who embodies LOVE. Brings into our lives such peace and such comfort. Because God is LOVE. We place our complete trust in the One who loves us. God is eternally faithful. God’s love never changes and can be relied upon. God’s love and His faith in us never changes.

Scripture Reading: Psalm 23

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.

He makes me lie down in green pastures.

He leads me beside still waters.

He restores my soul.

He leads me in paths of righteousness for His name’s sake.

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,

I will fear no evil, for You are with me;

Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me. (Psalm 23:1–4, NIV)

Conclusion. Before creation — God Almighty was ever-present. Our Father’s love is eternal. God is LOVE.

The Holy Word of God was written through His love. Reading His Holy Scriptures. We are reading always of God’s great love for all humanity. Every word, each chapter and all books. In the Holy Book are written in the love of God the Creator.

God is love. God created humanity. To love Him and to be loved by Him.
