FAITH CAPSULE: God sent His love for all.

Genesis 39

God cares to give His love, but the world does not care to know.
The love of the word for God is not glaring, and that prompts David with a curiosity to ask God, “What is man that You are mindful of him, And the son of man that You visit him?” (Psalm8:4)
Do you know the love of God?
Bible records, “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. (John 3:16)
Do you know about the love of God, or do you know?
To know the love of God is identified in 1 John 5:3, “For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments.” 
Keeping the commandment of God is doing His will, and obeying the word of God. 
It takes sacrificial commitment to obey the commandment of God.
With God, there is a standard for every area of His expectation for all. 
God did not just ask for love, but He does expect a standard for love. Deuteronomy 6:5 records, “You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength.” 
To love God means to give Him all. 
Through the pages of the Bible, men, and women that gave Him all were able to live a fulfilled life and accomplish great exploits to the glory of God. 
Abraham, Joseph, Daniel, and other giants loved God and were able to do great exploits. 
The giants in the hand of God demonstrated the love of God by their way of obedience to God.
Know Jesus, the love of God, not know about Jesus? 
The truth is that God is not receivable. 
Joseph is an example of one with love for God to ignore the temptation for the wife of his master.
Joseph loves God and could not make himself become the object of the wife of his master when she could not resist asking Joseph to lie with her. 
Joseph refused to sleep with the wife of his master. 
Joseph was obedient with his love for God and had no excuse to sleep with the wife of his master, stating, “…how then can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God.” (Genesis 39:9)
The love of Joseph for God made him refuse and not give himself to enter into a way of wickedness towards God. 
Joseph demonstrated love for God.
Jesus, live life for God, the evidence of His love for God.
To live life for God is documented for all to live a life for God, evidence of one that loves God.
Every time the love for God overrides the love for self, heaven shall respond by lifting such. 
Joseph, by his love for God, the favor of God could not depart from him because he loved His God and demonstrated His love for God by not giving in to temptation, the sin of the wife of his master.

Prayer for today: Ask God to help you to love Him fully.
