In
Deuteronomy 7:9 of the New Living Translation the Word says: “Understand,
therefore, that the Lord your God
is indeed God. He is the faithful God who keeps his covenant for a thousand
generations and lavishes his unfailing love on those who love him and obey his
commands.”
The
dictionary defines the word lavish as profuse, exuberant, lush and
opulent.
When the Word of God says that
the Lord lavishes his unfailing love on you, it’s not a little bit of love, it is not a second-hand kind of love, it is
not a distant kind of love, no, it’s a first quality love, an exuberant and
unconditional love.
In the same manner as He daily lavishes His love on us.
He also lavishes His faithfulness on our lives.
I’m sure if you all took a piece of paper and a pen it would
not take very long for each of you to fill a page
of times and circumstances
where His faithfulness brought you through a day, a season or a time
of great need in each one of your lives.
Psalm 36:5 describes the faithfulness of God in a very accurate manner. It says: “Your love, O LORD, reaches to the heavens,
your faithfulness to the skies.”
You really have not experienced being loved until you experience the
unfailing love the
Lord lavishes on you on a daily basis.
Have a blessed day!
