Bible Verses About God's Love for Us




Do you struggle with feeling loved?


You might be feeling alone and that no one loves you.

But I want to remind you that God loves you. 
 
And He is there for you. 

His love for you is not like man's love for you here on earth. 

It is supernatural like He is. 

Which means its not tainted with sin by fallen man. 

He does not fail us! 

I wanted to share some comforting Bible verses that affirm His amazing love for you:


John 3:16 


“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.

Romans 5:8 


But God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

Zephaniah 3:17  


The Lord your God is in your midst, a mighty one who will save; he will rejoice over you with gladness; he will quiet you by his love; he will exult over you with loud singing.

1 John 3:1 

See what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God; and so we are. The reason why the world does not know us is that it did not know him.

Galatians 2:20  


I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.

1 John 4:19  


We love because he first loved us.

Psalm 86:15  


But you, O Lord, are a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness.

Romans 8:37-39  


No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Ephesians 2:4-5 


But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ—by grace you have been saved—

1 John 4:16  


So we have come to know and to believe the love that God has for us. God is love, and whoever abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him.

Jeremiah 31:3 


The Lord appeared to him from far away. I have loved you with an everlasting love; therefore I have continued my faithfulness to you.

1 John 4:8  

Anyone who does not love does not know God, because God is love.


1 Peter 5:6-7 

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 John 4:9-11 

In this the love of God was made manifest among us, that God sent his only Son into the world, so that we might live through him. In this is love, not that we have loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins. Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.


1 John 4:7-8 

 

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 4:10 

 

In this is love, not that we have loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.

Jeremiah 29:11 

 

For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.

Romans 5:5 

 

And hope does not put us to shame, because God's love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us.

Romans 8:38-39 

 

For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Romans 8:35-39 

 

Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword? As it is written, “For your sake we are being killed all the day long; we are regarded as sheep to be slaughtered.” No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.

1 Corinthians 13:13  

So now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; but the greatest of these is love.

Psalm 36:7 

 

How precious is your steadfast love, O God! The children of mankind take refuge in the shadow of your wings.

1 John 4:18 


There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear. For fear has to do with punishment, and whoever fears has not been perfected in love.

Isaiah 41:13 

 

For I, the Lord your God, hold your right hand; it is I who say to you, “Fear not, I am the one who helps you.”

John 15:9-17 

 

As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Abide in my love. If you keep my commandments, you will abide in my love, just as I have kept my Father's commandments and abide in his love. These things I have spoken to you, that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be full. “This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends. ...

Ephesians 3:17-19 

 

So that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith—that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may have strength to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, and to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.

Ephesians 3:19 

 

And to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.

For the mountains may depart and the hills be removed, but my steadfast love shall not depart from you, and my covenant of peace shall not be removed,” says the Lord, who has compassion on you.

What Kind of Friends Shall You Choose?






"Do you ask me what kind of friends you shall choose?

Choose friends who will benefit your soul, friends whom you can really respect,

friends whom you would like to have near you on your death-bed,

friends who love the Bible and are not afraid to speak to you about it,

friends such as you will not be ashamed finding at the coming of Christ,

and at the day of judgment."




~ J.C. Ryle 1816-1900








Ah, aren't these sweet and wise words? They are indeed.

The older I get the more I cherish these type of friendships.

They are a gift from the Lord!

I pray that everyone here would have a friend like this.

If you do, bow your head and say a quick prayer for them today!

To Take a Worm





"To take a worm of the earth

and make him a disciple of Jesus

is the greatest privilege God can bestow upon man.

To select an obstinate, ungodly, perverse rebel, and place him in the school of Christ

and at the feet of Jesus,

is the highest favor God can bestow upon any child of the dust."



~ J. C. Philpot 1802-1869

Good Grandmothers

 



Good Grandmothers...


...are tellers of stories. They open the faucet of the past to quench their grandchildren's story thirst, and are careful not to flood them with too many, "I remembers..."

...are askers of questions. "Is math any easier now? "What did you name your puppies?" Is your new dress finished yet?"

...are wielders of peelers. Their swift hands make the pear pile smaller, the kitchen less steamy, and the hours shorter on canning day. 

...are noticers of everyday things. School art on the wall, birds at the birdfeeder, sandbox setus of farms and roads are noteworthy because they are part of their grandchildren's lives. 

9 Lessons from God Concerning Sickness



Sickness is meant…

1. To make us think—to remind us that we have a soul as well as a body—an immortal soul—a soul that will live forever in happiness or in misery—and that if this soul is not saved we had better never have been born.

2. To teach us that there is a world beyond the grave—and that the world we now live in is only a training-place for another dwelling, where there will be no decay, no sorrow, no tears, no misery, and no sin.

Are You Letting Negative Thoughts Destroy You?



Ladies ~ focusing on ourselves or our trials is a very self-destructive way to live.
When we allow ourselves to focus on our trials and hardships, it has a damaging effect on our outlook of everything. As legitimate and as severe as our difficulties may be, there are no justifiable excuses to sin and not trust the Lord.

The Beauty of Self Control




We all struggle with self control on many different levels, many especially with anger.

JR Miller had some thoughts on this:

On Men Discipling Their Children



“Men, your primary responsibility in your home, after your wife, is you to disciple your own children. And if you don’t do it, you’re in sin; you are in sin.

And if you turn it over to a Sunday school teacher, you are in sin. And you are to be teaching these children more than just stories about animals that went into Noah’s ark.
