1 John 4:7-10, " Beloved, let us love one another because love is of God, and everyone who loves has been begotten of God and knows God. The one who does not love has not known God, because God is love. By this the love of God was revealed in us, because His Son, the only begotten, God has sent into the world that we might live through Him. And love consists in this: not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son as the atoning sacrifice for our sins."
You NOW have HIS PROOF of His love for you because if He did not love you, He would have not sent Jesus to die for you. This is so simple that He does love you, and nothing else matters!! This is your true foundation that can never be changed because God is the source of this love and He does not change. Faith is the position in my heart to believe what He has already accomplished. I want you to believe this one thing. I need you to do this one thing for the rest of your life. Pray, Father, I know you love me, or you'd have never sent your Son to be crucified for me. That's what determines your knowledge of His love for you, the fact that Christ was crucified. It's not that you were healed or were never sick in the first place. None of that stuff. Circumstances have nothing to do with it. This is how we know God loves us, that he sent his only Son. So for the rest of your life, I want you living there, settled, rooted, and grounded in God's love for you because Christ was already crucified. When? Before the foundation of the world.
That was His TOTAL INTENT and purpose. Then God proved His love to you by sending His ONLY Son to die for you while you remained in sin!! That was ALL OF HIS DOING!! None of ours. SIMPLE! God only had one true intention, goal, and purpose in mind, which was to have His Son Jesus Christ live and abide within mankind. Some people say Jesus never sinned because He was God, but nobody says He never sinned because He was 100% selfless, and now He is SELFLESSNESS IN YOU. Look, there's no sin a man ever committed that wasn't attached to self-centeredness and to His own flesh, but Jesus was totally selfless, so sin had no ability or power, even though He was tempted at all points.
