LOVE "NEVER" FAILS. UNFAILING LOVE; FROM "HIS" PERSPECTIVE!

HOLY LOVE DOES NOT FAIL

“…Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, It is not easily angered, It keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres, Love never fails…” (1 Corinthians 13: 4-8 NIV).

 “…God is LOVE…” (1 John 4:4-8 KJV). “…God is [HOLY]… LOVE…” (1 John 4:4-8 KJV). “…LOVE …NEVER FAILS…” (1 Corinthians 13: 4-8 NIV).

HOLY LOVE will “NEVER” waver, wax cold, wane, decrease, or oscillate. HOLY LOVE is steady and everlasting. “…I am the Lord, I change NOT…” (Malachi 3:6 KJV).  ^“Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever” (Hebrews 13:8 NIV). He has “….loved [you]...with an everlasting love….” (Jeremiah 31:3 KJV).

HOLY LOVE is God. “…God is LOVE…” (1 John 4:4-8 KJV).

HOLY LOVE will “NEVER” leave you. “…I AM WITH… [YOU] and  … I WILL NOT LEAVE [YOU] …." (Genesis 28:15 ASV).

HOLY LOVE is an eternal BOND of UNITY and will “NEVER” separate from you. indw“…Love … is the perfect BOND of unity...” (Colossians 3:14 NASB). “….neither death, nor life, nor angels nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate [you]… from the [HOLY]… love of God which is “in” Christ Jesus our Lord…” (Romans 8:38-39 KJV).

HOLY LOVE goes on and on when other expressions such as prophecies, tongues, and knowledge cease and discontinue. “… [HOLY LOVE]… never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away…” (1 Corinthians 13:8 KJV).

“…God is LOVE…” (1 John 4:4-8 KJV). “…I am the Lord who demonstrates unfailing love …[toward you]…” (Jeremiah 9:23-24 NLT). “…LOVE …NEVER FAILS…” (1 Corinthians 13: 4-8 NIV). “… [holy love is] … the light of the world..." (John 9:5, 8:12 KJV).

“…the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not. There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe. He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light. That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world. …”(John 1:1-14 KJV).

HOLY LOVE is forever DEPENDABLE! “… [HOLY LOVE] … is Your rock and Your fortress, your deliverer, Your GOD, Your rock, in whom [your] … take refuge; Your shield and the horn of Your salvation, YOUR stronghold.…" (Psalms 18:3 NASB).

HOLY LOVE demonstrates love toward you BEFORE you are even aware of it. “…God … [demonstrated] … his love toward … [you], in that, while … [you] … were yet sinners, Christ DIED FOR US…” (Romans 5:8 KJV). “…God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him, should not perish, but have everlasting life” (John 3:16 KJV). “… Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation (substitute, intervention) for our sins.” (1 John 4:10 KJV). God “…spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all?” (Romans 8:32 KJV).

HOLY LOVE sacrifices EVERYTHING to remove any barriers between him and his people. “…God so loved the world, that HE GAVE his only begotten Son, …” (John 3:16 KJV).  “… He is the atoning sacrifice for our sins…” (1 John 2:2 NIV). “…The Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world” (John 1:29 KJV). “… [He sent the ] …one … who can reconcile God and humanity—the man Christ Jesus…” (1 Timothy 2:5 NLT).

HOLY LOVE desires to be INTIMATELY attached to his LOVED ONES. “…He that is joined unto the Lord is ONE spirit…” (1 Corinthians 6:17 KJV). “…God has sent forth the Spirit of His Son “INTO” [YOUR]… HEARTS…” (Galatians 4:6 NASB). “…GOD IS SPIRIT…” (John 4:24 KJV). “…The Spirit of God dwell[s]… in you…” (Romans 8:9 KJV).  “…Jesus Christ is in you…” (2 Corinthians 13:5 KJV).

HOLY LOVE initiates the affection between himself and his people. “…NOT that we loved God, but that HE LOVED US...” (1 John 4:10 KJV). “….HE FIRST LOVED US…” (1 John 4:19 ASV). “…God’s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us…” (Romans 5:5 NIV).

HOLY LOVE NEVER changes.  “…I am the Lord, I change NOT…” (Malachi 3:6 KJV).  “…Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever” (Hebrews 13 :8 NIV).

Therefore, HOLY LOVE doesn’t FAIL; even when his people abandon him! “…My people have stubborn and rebellious hearts. They have turned away and ABANDONED me….” (JEREMIAH 5:23 NLT). “…They ABANDONED ME and did not obey my word….” (JEREMIAH 16:11 NLT). “…They ABANDONED the Lord…” (Judges 2:13 NLT). “….They ABANDONED the Lord and no longer served him at all…” (Judges 10:6 NLT). “…Ever since I brought them from Egypt they have continually ABANDONED ME…” (1 Samuel 8:8 NLT). “…They ABANDONED the Lord… they turned their backs on him….” (2 Chronicles 29:6 NLT).

Again and again he rescued them, but they chose to rebel against him, and they were finally destroyed by their sin. Even so, he pitied them in their distress and listened to their cries. He remembered his covenant with them and relented because of his unfailing love. He even caused their captors to treat them with kindness. Save us, O Lord our God! Gather us back from among the nations, so we can thank your holy name and rejoice and praise you. Praise the Lord, the God of Israel, who lives from everlasting to everlasting! Let all the people say, “Amen!” Praise the Lord!” (Psalms 106:42-48 NLT). “…He remembered his covenant with them and relented because of his unfailing love…” (Psalms 106:42-48 NLT).
