Can
you imagine the wonders of abiding in God’s love? In a world full of
wickedness, abiding in the love of God is the escape route from being a
victim of wickedness. God is committed to protecting those who abide in
Him. This article explains why you should dwell in the love of the Lord.
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 – John 15:10 (NKJV)
Jesus
answered and said to him, “If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word;
and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home
with him – John 14:23 (NKJV)
He
who dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the
shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my
fortress; my God, in Him I will trust.” Surely He shall deliver you from
the snare of the fowler and from the perilous pestilence – Psalm 91:1-3
(NKJV)
Many
people have done so many things in order to protect themselves from the
wickedness in this world but to no avail. Some of the things they do
give temporary protection while others disappoint woefully. But abiding
in the love of God never disappoints!
Abiding
in God’s love not only gives you the good things of life and ultimately
eternal life in heaven, but also makes you untouchable by the enemy
(Psalm 105:15). Surely, they will try but they will fall for your sake
(Isaiah 54:15)
What does it mean to abide in the love of the Lord?
It
is to keep God’s commandments, His words (John 15:10). It’s letting
God’s words dwell richly in you to the point of it guiding you in what
you think, say or do. It’s letting His words be a lamp unto your feet
and light unto your path (Psalm 119:105). Read more...
