True love throughout the year and not just on Valentine's Day

When things are not going to well in my relationships. I go to God in prayer and read I Corinthians 13. The following Studies will open your eyes about what true love is all about.

I John 4:18-19, "There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love. We love him, because he first loved us."

I Corinthians 13:4-7, "Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil; Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth; Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.

Each Sunday morning sermon this past month has been focused on our church theme, God Is Faithful. The first 4 sermon titles are part of the portrait that God paints for us of His faithfulness. From the canvas of the Word of God we have seen Our God— A Faithful High Priest, Our God—A Faithful Provider, Our God — A Faithful Judge, and Our God — A Faithful Protector. The last sermon in the series will focus on our faithfulness to our faithful God — God Is Faithful; Are You?

If you know this faithful God, naturally you will desire to tell others about Him. The Psalmist declares, “I will sing of the mercies of the LORD for ever: with my mouth will I make known thy faithfulness, to all generations” (Psalm 89:1). Again he confesses, “I have not hid thy righteousness within my heart; I have declared thy faithfulness and thy salvation: I have not concealed thy lovingkindness and thy truth from the great congregation” (Psalm 40:10).

If you are a disciple of Jesus Christ, your Lord has given you a calling and a commission to go forth and preach the Gospel (Matthew 28:16-20). This mandate has two parts: 1) Salvation – making disciples of Christ and 2) Sanctification – teaching obedience to all of Christ’s teachings. Does this mandate seem to be to overwhelming even to begin? In ourselves it surely is! But we do not have to go it alone! Jesus, our faithful God, has promised to go with us: “lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.” In the context of this great commission we are told in verse 17, “And when they saw [Jesus], they worshiped him.” Worship preceded their witness. Let’s worship our Lord for His faithfulness and then depend on His faithfulness to enable us to witness to others of His mercies that fail not! God is faithful!

With Prayer, Pastor Mark
