“The
love of the Lord”
Hosea
3:1
By: Pastor Samuel

Believers, like the Israelites looked
back on all their experiences;
-how He fed and clothed them
-how He put up with their murmurings,
and all their longings after the fresh-pots of Egypt
-how He
opened the rock to supply them with water and fed them with manna that came
down from heaven.
Think
of how his grace has been sufficient for you in all your troubles; how His
blood has been pardon for all your sins; how His rod and His staff have
comforted you.
When
you look back upon the love of the Lord, then let faith survey His love in the
future, for, remember that Christ’s covenant and blood have something more in
them than the past. He, who has loved you and pardoned you, shall never cease
to love and pardon. He is Alpha and He shall be Omega also, He is the first and
He shall be the last. Therefore, when you pass through the valley of the shadow
of death, you need fear no evil, for He is with you.
Surely
as we meditate on the love of the Lord, our hearts burn within us and we long
to love Him more…
