The Power of Love

Bible in a Year: Leviticus 15-16, Matthew 27:1-26

Many waters cannot quench love.
Song of Songs 8:7

Today's Scripture & Insight:

Two octogenarians, one from Germany and the other from Denmark, were an unlikely couple. They had each enjoyed sixty years of marriage before being widowed. Though living only fifteen minutes apart, their homes were in separate countries. Still, they fell in love, regularly cooking meals and spending time together. Sadly, in 2020, due to the coronavirus, the Danish government closed the border crossing. Undeterred, every day at 3:00 p.m., the two met at the border on a quiet country lane and, seated on their respective sides, shared a picnic. "We're here because of love," the man explained. Their love was stronger than borders, more powerful than a pandemic.

The Song of Songs offers an impressive display of love's invincible power. "Love is as strong as death," Solomon insisted (8:6). None of us escapes death; it arrives with a steely finality we can't break. And yet love, the writer said, is every bit as strong. What's more, love "burns like a blazing fire, like a mighty flame" (v. 6). Have you ever watched a fire exploding in feverish rage? Love—like fire—is impossible to contain. "Many waters cannot quench love." Not even a raging river can sweep love away (v. 7).

Human love, whenever it's selfless and true, offers reflections of these characteristics. However, only God's love offers such potency, such limitless depths, such tenacious power. And here's the stunner: God loves each of us with this unquenchable love.

By: Winn Collier

Reflect & Pray
How does love in this life reflect the love shared by God the Father, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit? How do you sense God loving you now?

God, I need Your powerful, deep love. I need Your love that won't be extinguished and won't let me go. Will You show me this love today?

HOW PERSUADED?

In 2 Timothy 4:10, Demas - a co-labourer with Paul was floored by his love for the world. He became a victim of comfort. Today, many people are also becoming prayerless and shifting their or trust from God to uncertain riches. They are now tending towards the belief that money can fix everything. If you are in such...More

A LESSON FROM GOLIATH

At the first sight of David, Goliath despised him. He was amazed that the children of Israel could find no other man to fight him than a young boy. As if that was not enough, Goliath did not see any conventional weapon of war on David. So he asked, "Am I a dog?" The first lesson we have to learn from this story as...More

Forgive And Move On (2)

Anyone who starts ploughing and keeps looking back isn't worth a thing to God's Kingdom!' Luke 9:62 CEV

If you're wise, you'll do four things:

(1) Focus on the road ahead. By looking in the rear-view mirror instead of what's up ahead, you'll end up in a ditch. Focus on the fact you've...More
