This is a Bible Study on God’s love never failing us but enduring forever.
God’s Love Endures All, Never Fails
I Corinthians 13:7-8
The Word of God says that love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things and endures all things. That love never fails. Because God our Heavenly Father is an eternal God everything about Him must be eternal, perpetually renewing, including His love. Therefore we must understand that it will never cease to exist or fall away, but remain constant throughout the ages. It is a love that is strong, bearing the infirmities of the weak, enduring our iniquities with patience. In other words our Father’s love for us is safe, strong and secure, so that we can rest in Him forever. Unlike the world’s love which is unstable at best, never eternal.
A constant, true love from God is the greatest changing agent man can experience through the power of His Holy Spirit. With His love He encourages us to keep on trying, to keep on believing that we can, to keep on hoping that we can do or be whatever it is that He created us to do or be. No matter how long it takes or how many mistakes we’ve made His love endures, lives on to tell us to keep on going,” Your race is not over until I say it is over”. Once we receive His love then it will perpetually live within us and throughout us not only renewing our lives perpetually but all those we touch with it. This will make the world a better place, eternally.
By receiving God’s love in the form of His Son Jesus The Christ we can live the abundant life that never fails. With the security in our lives that God will always loves us, we can endure whatever hardships that may occur, knowing that He will sustain us through them. This will comfort us until those hardships pass or we’ve grown out of our childish mistakes into the Christians that God has called us to be. We are not perfect but forgiven, pardoned until we become perfect. Therefore we never have a reason to be discouraged to the point of giving up, but His love causes us to keep on trying.
This love will also cause us to share it with all those we know and love. Who would not need to know God’s eternal love for themselves so that they too could be changed for an eternity. Because we have received a love that will endure through all and never fail. We can begin to love people around us with the same kind of love . We can continue to love people even though they have problems or inconvenience us at times. Our love for them will endure because it will not depend upon us for strength but depend upon God. We won’t have to strain to give it but it will flow like a river of living water, refreshing all those drink from it. Why? Because God is our source.
Exercise – Begin to think of God’s love for you, given to you through His Son Jesus Christ
(remember, this is the only way that you can receive God’s love for your life).
Think about how it will always be there for you, for eternity. Meditate on this. That
He will always be there for you even when you make your greatest mistakes,
commit your greatest, sins His love will be right there again for you to pick you
up again, forever. Continue to meditate on this, letting God wash and cleanse
your heart from a lack of His pure love. Let Him and His love fill you up at this
time until your cup begins to run over and you begin to cry tears of great joy. That
God truly does love me, abundantly, so much, too much, forever. Glory to God!!!
Thank You Jesus!
– After you are done rejoicing, begin to think about those people in your life that
need God’s love. Begin to meditate on how you can be an instrument of God’s
love in their lives. How the love that you will share with them will be one that
endures hardship and one that won’t fail.
– Lastly, begin to pray and ask for God’s direction in your life in carrying God’s
love to the world through His Son Jesus the Christ our Lord and Saviour.
