How Is God Love Manifested In Our Lives

3) God loves us in a redemptive way.

“God has accomplished what the law, weakened by the flesh, was unable to do. He condemned sin in the flesh by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and for sin, in order that the righteous requirement of the law would be fulfilled in us, who walk not in the flesh but in the Spirit.” (Rom 8:3-4, NIV)

We lack the ability to obey God's law because of our sinful nature. God's love, on the other hand, is manifested in Christ, who redeemed, or paid, the price we due for our disobedience. Galatians 3:13

4) God loves us in a way that justifies us.

“All have sinned and fall short of God's glory, and are justified as a gift by his grace, through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, whom God presented as a propitiation through his blood, to be received by faith.” (Romans 3:23, 25)

God's love is demonstrated through his grace in justifying (or pronouncing us innocent) us through trust in Christ. The sinner is treated as if he were the righteous one, and Christ is treated as if he were the sinner. Instead of seeing us through the lens of our sin, God now sees us through the lens of Christ's righteousness.

5) God loves us in an adoptive way.

“For you did not receive the spirit of slavery to return to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption as sons, through whom we cry, “Abba! Father!” (See Romans 8:15.)

God demonstrates His love for us by not only forgiving our sins, but also by adopting us into His family. He has qualified us to partake in the saints' inheritance. (1 Corinthians 1:12) Salvation, strength, hope, peace, comfort, providence, camaraderie, and so much more are all part of this inheritance!

6) God has a sanctifying love for us.

“Through the once-for-all giving of Jesus Christ's body, we have been sanctified.” (Hebrews tenth chapter)

Another way God demonstrates His love is through sanctifying (or separating) us for His purposes. We're sanctified in two ways: chronologically and positionally.

We've been sanctified “When we come to Christ, we come “positionally.” Because there was no permanent payment for sin in the Old Testament, priests would make sacrifices on a regular basis. Christ, on the other hand, made the perfect sacrifice and paid the price for our sins once and for all. As a result, we've been sanctified, or set apart, in order to receive redemption via Christ.

We've been sanctified as well “Continuously” throughout our Christian lives It's not about our salvation — we're saved by grace, not by works (Eph 2:8-9) — but about how we live after we've been saved.

The process of progressive sanctification is the process of dying to sin and becoming more like Christ in order to live for Him. It's all about bringing forth the fruits of the Spirit rather than the products of the flesh. (Galatians 5:19-23)

7) God has a glorious affection for us.

“We are now God's children, and what we will be has yet to emerge; but, we know that when he appears, we will be like him, because we will see him as he is.” 1 John 3:1–2

Finally, God demonstrates His love for us by exalting us. We will struggle with sin throughout our life, but God promises that the good work he begins in us will be accomplished. Philippians 1:6 Our sinful nature will be left behind when we go to be with the Lord, and we will be like Him and with Him forever.

How can we manifest our love for God?

Pray for others to demonstrate God's love. Please pray for the folks! Yes, in your own time with God, pray for them, since God hears our prayers. But, while you're with them, pray for them as well. Praying with someone right then and there is one of the simplest ways to show love and compassion.

• The Spirit of Truth dwells in the believer to guide, show the believer what she needs to know, praise God, and show her what she needs to know. “I am the way, the truth, and the life,” Jesus declares.

the way of life The Holy Spirit is the spirit of truth, as Jesus described Him.

• The Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send as a comforter, will teach you all things and bring them to your mind (John 14:26).
• Remove sin, righteousness, and judgment from the world.
• These are the exact actions that Jesus took while on earth.
• As Jesus, the Third Person of the Trinity, departs, the Holy Spirit will continue the task.

One of the reasons the governing elite and the people were unable to accept His teaching was that it instilled in them a sense of guilt for their misdeeds, which still exists today. They were pushed to change by Jesus. The folks appeared to be godly, yet they lacked the substance or capacity to fight sin. They were labeled hypocrites by Jesus, who told His disciples that unless their righteousness surpassed that of the Pharisees, they would not be allowed to enter the kingdom of God. Conviction of sin, righteousness, and judgment is carried out by the Holy Spirit. On the day of Pentecost, after Jesus had finally left, the Holy Spirit descended. The Holy Spirit resides in every Christian who has been born again or has accepted Jesus Christ as Savior.

According to First John 5:7, “The father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit are the three witnesses in heaven, and these three are one.

“Jesus is the Word made human.” (See John 1:14)

The workings of the Trinity—God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—can only be revealed by the Holy Spirit. An ordinary man will never be able to comprehend the Trinity without the Holy Spirit. This tremendous mystery, which has generated such a stir throughout Church and global history, can only be revealed by the Holy Spirit, and anyone who lacks the Holy Spirit does not belong to Jesus Christ. We accept God's Word on faith as believers. The Holy Spirit gives believers the ability to comprehend God's Word. Believers don't always understand everything, but the Holy Spirit gives them peace to accept it when they don't. Believers recognize that some things are unclear right now; we don't know everything. According to 2 Corinthians 13:12,

“For now, we view through a hazy window, but then we will see face to face: now I know in part, but then I will know as well as I am known.”

Things believers don't fully comprehend will be revealed to them in heaven one day. The new believer, on the other hand, must be taught that God exists in three persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, all of whom are one person in essence and power. Many people continue to hold strong opinions against this important Christian value. You will never be a disciple of Jesus Christ unless you grasp and practice the trinity. That means he or she lacks the Holy Spirit, who will teach about the Trinity's operation: God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. There would be no understudying of the trinity if the Holy Spirit did not exist.

How does God's love affect us?

A past best-selling book was titled “I'm OK, You're OK.” Many sour relationships are based on the truth of “I Stink, You Stink.”

Rachel, 9, feels that God's love “affects me because I feel loved, and that makes me love other people.”

Rachel has figured out what makes for a good relationship. We don't try to put people in God's place when we know God loves us in our thoughts and feel his love in our hearts. Any human relationship should not be made into an idol.

Everyone is in need of affection. Only God can provide us with perfect, unfailing love all of the time. Consider yourself a conduit for allowing God's love to flow through you; you might be amazed at what you receive in return.

“God's love comes through your spirit and makes you want to treat other people the way God would want other people to be treated,” Courtney, 10, explains. “God's love is everlasting, omnipresent, and faithful.”

“I don't get furious for as long,” Stacy, 10, says. “It used to take days to complete. Cooling down now takes roughly an hour. I once became so enraged at one of my friends that I went a week without speaking to her. She recalls it as well.”

Stacy, your battle with rage reminds me of a golfer who stormed off the course after throwing his golf bag into a lake, as told by Michael Hodgin. When his companions observed him going into the lake, they assumed he had cooled down. He fished the dripping bag out of the lake, unzipped the side pocket, took out his car keys, and tossed the bag back in.

According to Jared, 10, abiding in God's love is the “secret” to keeping your cool under pressure. “Knowing God's love gives you hope because you know God will work things out for the best. He has the ability to turn a bad situation into a positive one.”

Nicole, 10, believes that God's love may change lethargy into helpfulness. “I occasionally assist my mother in doing the dishes or cleaning the house. I assist my father by taking out the garbage.”

Nicole, that's love with your feet on it. The true foot story, though, belongs to Ephraim, 10: “When you play soccer, you will occasionally be knocked down. That is not the love of God if you want to hit him back. You lose your attention and build up anger if you desire to get him or her back. You would be able to concentrate and not build up wrath if you had God's love.”

In soccer like in life, anger in the form of vengeance or bitterness can get in the way. The Apostle Paul encouraged people to forgive one another “like Christ forgave you” (Colossians 3:13).

“God's love is really strong, and he provides it to you,” Lindsay, 9, explains. “In whatever you do and say, God will show you the proper way to do or say it.”

Jordon, 10, gives examples of how to do things correctly. “Encourage someone who is being picked on or who has no friends. Whether someone is injured, try to assist them and see if they are okay.”

Consider this: Only God's love can change “I Stink, You Stink” relationships into “I'm Loved, You're Loved” connections.

“This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you,” remember (John 15:12).

Consider this: Am I a conduit for God's love, blessing others, or am I a dam, trying to keep all for myself?

What is God's love for us?

The Good News: God's love validates our existence and gives us hope for the future. “God loved the world so much that he gave his only Son, so whomever believes in him would not perish but have eternal life.” The Good News: Death has no power over those who love the Lord and are loved by Him.

What does it mean to reflect God's love?

Valentine's Day is my favorite of all the second-tier festivals that follow the major three of Passover, Easter, and Christmas. I understand that Easter is a Christian celebration at its core, but Halloween is also a Christian holiday, and I like both. I can endure the spiritually suspicious incursion of ghouls and zombies because of the combined joy of candy and trick or treating around your neighborhood, which is suddenly converted into a true communal festival. In that way, Valentine's Day is similar to Halloween. It's about cards and flowers and, sure, more sweets, but it's really about love, and that's enough for me because love is in short supply in our world right now.

I remember feeling the first stirrings of love at school in Milwaukee, when Valentine's Day cards were exchanged in class, and it was a lovely experience. Even the formulaic giving of flowers and chocolates as I got past Valentine's cards hasn't dimmed my enthusiasm for a day that, despite its clichéd goofiness, remains a celebration of the purest human feeling, love.

There are various types of love. Eros is the Greek word for “romantic love.” Agape is the kind of love we have for God in our hearts. Storge is the form of love we have for our family, whereas Philia is the form of love we feel for dear friends. They are all different kinds of love, yet they all have the self-emptying element in common. We are taken beyond ourselves by love.

The Bible's core message is that our love for one another is a manifestation of God's love for each of us individually. The Torah's injunction to love God with all of your heart, soul, and might (Deuteronomy 6:5) is central to Judaism's understanding of our responsibilities to God. God created and loves us, and we love God in return. The Golden Rule, which states that we should love others as we would like to be loved (Leviticus 19:18), is the common thread that binds all world religions, east and west. In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus teaches that loving God and loving our neighbors are the two most essential teachings in the Bible (Mark 12:28-34).

As ensouled beings created in the image of a loving God, love is the cornerstone of our lives. God gave us free will so that we might choose whether or not to love God and each other. Love is impossible without free will since we cannot select anything. Love is made possible by free will, and faith is made possible by love, and faith makes a future for us all feasible.

So, dear readers, my Valentine's Day card to you is to love beyond flowers, sweets, and cards. Find a method to love others without manipulating or expecting anything in return. In his letter to the Corinthians, Paul defined love in this way:

I'm a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal if I speak in earthly and angelic tongues but don't have love. And if I have prophetic powers and know all the mysteries and all the wisdom, and if I have all the faith in the world to move mountains, but I lack love, I am nothing. I gain nothing if I give away all of my goods and my body so that I might boast, but I get nothing if I do not have love. Love is kind and patient; it is not envious, boastful, arrogant, or rude. It is not obstinate; it is not irritated or resentful; it does not delight in evil, but delights in the truth. It bears everything, believes everything, hopes everything, and suffers everything. Love is eternal. Prophecies, however, will come to an end; tongues, too, will cease; and wisdom, too, will come to an end. Because we only know in part and can only prophesy in part, the partial will come to an end when the complete arrives. As I was a kid, I talked like a kid, thought like a kid, and reasoned like a kid; when I grew up, I stopped acting like a kid. For the time being, we can only see in a faint mirror, but eventually we shall be able to see face to face. Now I only know in part; later, I will know completely, just as I have been completely known. And now these three remain: faith, hope, and love, the greatest of which is love. (Colossians 13:1–13)

What is God's love according to the Bible?

Both the expressions “God's love” and “Christ's love” appear in the New Testament. Their usage is related in the experience of the believer in places like Romans 8:35 and Romans 8:39, without asserting their equivalence. Jesus professes his love for God the Father in John 14:31. This line is Jesus' only direct statement about his love for God the Father in the New Testament. A voice from Heaven during Jesus' baptism in Matthew 3:17 expresses the Father's love for his Son (Jesus Christ). The same attitude is reflected again in Mark 9:7, during Jesus' Transfiguration, when a voice from Heaven informs the three disciples: “This is my beautiful son, whom I adore. Pay attention to him!”

In Christianity, one of God's most important attributes is love. “God is love,” says 1 John 4:8 and 16, “and he who abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him.” “God so loved the world…” says John 3:16.

The Greek word agape (love) is used in the New Testament to convey God's affection for people or the world.

Who is the manifestation of the ultimate Lord?

), (roughly “pertaining to prayer”) is a prose commentary on the Vedic mantras, which are an important aspect of Vedic literature.

• A brhmaa () (masculine, same pronunciation as above) is a Hindu priest; in this context, the word is commonly translated as “Brahmin.” The Atharva Veda also makes use of this term. Brahmi is a neuter plural form of Brahmi. See Vedic priest for further information.
• Ishvara (lit., Supreme Lord) is a partial earthly manifestation (with limited qualities) of the ultimate reality, the attributeless Brahman, according to Advaita. However, in Visishtadvaita and Dvaita, Ishvara (the Supreme Controller) is the source of the impersonal Brahman and has limitless characteristics.
• Devas are the different manifestations of Brahman/God, each with a distinct characteristic. There were 33 devas in the Vedic faith, which was eventually increased to 330 million devas. Devas are, in fact, considered to be more mundane manifestations of the One and the Supreme Brahman (See Para Brahman). 330 million devas originally signified 33 different forms of celestial manifestations because the Sanskrit word for “ten million” also signifies “group.”

When a God physically manifests on earth we call that what?

A theophany (thee AH' fuh nee) is when God appears to a human being physically. The Old Testament describes several theophanies, but they all have one thing in common. No one was able to see God's face.

Even Moses, the most important figure in the Old Testament, was denied this honor. Although the Bible mentions Jacob and Moses speaking to the Lord “face to face,” that must have been a figure of expression indicating a private conversation, because God informed Moses:

“…you won't be able to see my face since no one can see me and live.” (NIV) Exodus 33:20

God came as a man, an angel, a flaming bush, and a pillar of cloud or fire to avoid such fatal encounters.

Why do God love me so much?

“I pray that you, together with all the saints, will be able to realize how great, long, lofty, and deep Christ's love is.” 3:17-18 —Ephesians 3:17-18 —Ephesians 3:17-18 —E

Kayla, my oldest daughter, graduated from high school two weeks ago. Her graduation celebration was postponed for a month and a half due to COVID. My wife, Christine, and I, on the other hand, were overjoyed to watch her put on her cap and gown and earn her diploma.

Knowing Kayla would be going for college soon, I've been thinking about Bible verses I'd like to pass on to her and use to pray for her in recent months.

Ephesians 3:17-19 is a chapter that has been on my thoughts a lot lately. It begins halfway through verse 17 and continues as follows: “I pray that you, having been rooted and established in love, may have power, with all the saints, to grasp how wide, long, high, and deep is Christ's love, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all God's fullness.”

This is one of my Kayla's prayers. I want her to be deeply established in God's love and to understand the breadth, length, height, and depth of Christ's love. But I don't want her to be content with that “I want her to truly experience God's incredible love.

The most popular Bible verse, according to most people, is John 3:16: “Because God so loved the world, He gave His one and only Son, that whomever believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.”

I've had several conversations with people who believe that God loves the world so much over the years that I've been in ministry. They weren't convinced, though, that God loved them.

Because of our own inadequacies, we sometimes doubt God's love for us. At other times, we question his love because our sin appears to be too great for him to forgive. And, to be honest, we sometimes have a hard time believing that the creator of this vast universe would be concerned about us.

I'm sure you've questioned at some time in your life: “How could the universe's creator love me?”

To be honest, the creator of the universe loving you is absolutely ridiculous. After all, you're not a powerful figure. Your clout in the world is quite limited. Natural resources are scarce in your area. And, like the children of Israel, you're obstinate, putting up with a lot of irritating whining and complaining.

You and I are both unlovable in many ways. So, how is it possible for God to love me? What makes you think God would love you?

The answer is that God loves you regardless of who you are or what you've done. Because of who he is, God loves you. When we doubt God's love for us, it's almost always because we're focusing on ourselves – our anxieties, flaws, faults, and insignificance — rather than on him.

But that's the wrong place to put your attention. God's love for me has never been about me in the first place. It's always been centered on him.

1 John 4:8 states unequivocally: “God is love,” they say. And since God is love, he will love me regardless of how irritating, unlovable, or undeserving of his love I am. How could God love us if he didn't love us? Because God is love, and he excels at loving undeserving sinners like you and me.

Even death and life aren't enough for God's love. That's wonderful news for you and me, because our sins have rendered us all dead to God, according to God's word.

According to Ephesians 2:1-3, “You were dead in your transgressions and sins, which you used to live in when you followed the ways of this world… satisfying the desires and thoughts of our sinful nature.”

According to Colossians 2:13, “God made you alive with Christ while you were dead in your trespasses and in the uncircumcision of your sinful nature. He pardoned all of our sins.”

So there's no denying it. We are spiritually dead to God as a result of our rebellious transgressions. Jesus, on the other hand, is ready and willing to bring us back to life.

Why would he do such a thing? Because God loves us despite our flaws. Jesus loves us despite our flaws.

According to Romans 5:8, “But God shows his love for us in this: Christ died for us while we were yet sinners.”

What a beautiful verse! Despite the fact that we were still selfish jerks, Jesus loved us and died for us. Even though we were still breaching God's commandments and doing whatever we wanted; even though we were still rebellious, stubborn, whining, and fighting; even though we were absolutely undeserving, unappreciative, and unlovable — Jesus loved us and died for us regardless.

It's no surprise that in 1 John 3:1, the Apostle John says, “See what a tremendous love the Father has for us, that we should be called God's children!”

One of my prayers for my daughter is also one of my prayers for you. I want you to be securely established in God's love and to understand how vast, long, high, and deep Christ's love is. But I don't want you to just “prehend” God's incredible love; I want you to directly know it — “so you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.”

Why is God's love so important?

According to Bahá Faith beliefs, God's love (philanthropia) is the basic reason for human creation and one of life's primary goals. God's love purifies human hearts, causing people to become transformed and self-sacrificing as they reflect more of God's attributes and qualities. The religion's founder's son, Abdu'l-Bahá, penned the following: “There is nothing more wonderful or blessed than God's love! It heals the ill, soothes the injured, brings joy and comfort to the entire world, and it is the only way for man to achieve eternal life. The Love of God is at the heart of all religions, and it is the cornerstone of all spiritual teachings.”
