Topic: DIVINE LOVE III

Memory Verse: Isaiah 63:9 – In all their affliction he was afflicted, and the angle of his presence saved them: in his love and in his pity he redeemed them; and, he bare them and carried them all the days of old. Isaiah 63:9
Bible Reading: Isaiah 63:7-9

Message: The very first time I read our memory verse for today (Isaiah 63:9), I couldn’t believe my eyes. The first sentence really surprised me.

In all their affliction he was afflicted…
Whenever those that God loves are afflicted, He is afflicted too. No wonder in Matthew 25:37-40, Jesus referred to Himself as the one in prison, the one who was hungry and so on, while the people He was talking to saw other humans in those situations. Anytime God’s beloved is in pain, He is in pain too. Galatians 6:10 says:
As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith.

It makes sense that when we, His beloved, are in pain, He is in pain too. When you see someone you love in pain, you wish that the pain could be transferred to you. Each time someone you love is suffering, you are suffering too. This explains 1 Peter 2:24 to us:
Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.

What He is saying there is, ‘Let your sickness fall on me’. He was saying ‘I would rather die than see you die’. This gives me the assurance that aches and pains cannot stay in my body. You can say confidently to any pain in your body, “Jesus and I cannot suffer for the same thing. He has already suffered my pain, so I cannot be in pain again.” If death tries to threaten you, tell him, “Jesus died so that I can live”. It is because of Jesus’ love for me that I know I can never be poor. 2 Corinthians 8:9 says:
For Ye know the grace of our Lord Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich.

Surrender Your life to Jesus Christ and forsake all your sins if you also want to experience this special divine love.

Hymn: Through The Love Of God Our Saviour
Points: Consider whatever challenge you are facing now and tell it, you cannot afflict Jesus and afflict me. Jesus has paid the price for me, so get out of my life in the name of Jesus christ.
Bible in one year: Jude 1, Revelation 1, Revelation 2, Revelation 3, Revelation 4

Title: Through the Love of God Our Saviour.
Chorus: null.

  1. Through the love of God our Saviour,

All will be well;
Free and changeless is His favour,
All, all is well:
Precious is the blood that healed us;
Perfect is the grace that sealed us:
Strong the hand stretched forth to shield us,
All must be well.

  2. Though we pass through tribulation,

All will be well;
Ours is such a full salvation,
All ,all is well:
Happy still in God confiding;
Fruitful if in Christ abiding;
Holy through the Spirit’s guiding;
All must be well.

  3. We expect a bright tomorrow; 

All will be well;
Faith can sing through days of sorrow,
All, all is well:
On our Father’s love relying,
Jesus every need supplying,
Or in living or in dying,
All must be well.
