Love is Extravagant
Love from God isn’t something that always looks like sunshine and rainbows. It is a love that fights for us. This kind of love is one that is steadfast. It is honest even when it isn’t easy to listen to. It is a fight that doesn't always come across as tender but can be seen as pushy.
We may think this can't be love because love is kind and long-suffering and patient. But there is another side of love. It is jealous of anything that would lead you to hell. It's a love that fights the enemy on your behalf. It fights for the weak, sacrifices itself for others, and rescues people from evil. It speaks the truth in love, it requires trust, and it cuts away the places that lead you to hell. This love is extreme and extravagant.
God's love is one that will love humanity all the way to hell if it has to. What does that mean? Jesus is this love! He doesn't want anyone to go to hell. He has provided the way for all to be delivered, rescued, and restored. But because He is love, He gives us free will choice. And if we choose to love God, we must also leave our desires and our flesh behind. If we love our desires and flesh more, we give ourselves over to the enemy. Those are actions that will lead us to hell. God will fight for us with His love. But if we keep running back to play with the lion or the bear, the outcome will be obvious.
Point of Action:
Today listen to love, listen to God, and say, “No!” to His enemies. His love is so big and deep. Immerse yourself in Him and all will fall into place.
