The Love of God — Part 2

“Keep yourselves in the love of God” (Jude verse 21).

As we said yesterday, keeping yourself in the enjoyment of God’s love will have an impact on your life in several ways. These effects may even take place unconsciously. Here are some more of those effects.

5. It will keep us from sin.

“For the love of Christ constraineth us” (2 Corinthians 5:14)

6. It will cause us to walk in separation from this world.

“For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also” (Matthew 6:21).

7. It will cause us to be thankful and full of praise.

“My heart is fixed, O God, my heart is fixed: I will sing and give praise” (Psalm 57:7).

8. It increases our appreciation of Himself.

“And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God” (Ephesians 3:19).

9. It will make us look and long for the Lord’s return.

“Looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life” (Jude 21).
