THE RIVER OF JESUS’ LOVE

2-7-06 Brother Darrell Wellman

There is a sweet river that ever flows . It is a beautiful river that nourishes the land , and will give life to all that it touches . This river is deep . No one can even begin to measure it’s depth . This river is wide , and it’s current is so strong ! No one can stop , or even hinder it’s flow . This river has no beginning , and it has no end ! What an awesome river ! It is the river of Jesus’ love !

It is so comforting to know that I have my Lord’s awesome love , and support ! Nothing can separate me from the river of Jesus’ love ! Romans 8 : 38-39 says : " For I am persuaded , that neither death , nor life , nor angels , nor principalities , nor powers , nor things present , nor things to come , Nor height , nor depth , nor any other creature , shall be able to separate us from the love of God , which is in Christ Jesus our Lord ." I don’t have to feel lonely , or depressed because Jesus’ love is always there for me ! I’m immersed in the river of Jesus’ love ! His water shelters me . I have found true joy and peace in Jesus’ river !

Satan would like you to believe that you are worthless, but you are so precious in the eyes of Jesus . He loves you more than you can imagine ! You see , Jesus’ river of love flows just for you ! It was His love for you that caused the river to flow to the cross . When Jesus shed His precious blood , He thought of you , and He thought of me ! His river of love was a river of blood .

Jesus’ love is unconditional . It is not based on our performance in the past , or what we can do for Him in the future . I don’t have to fear that I will awake some morning , and Jesus will tell me that He has stopped loving me . His love never fluctuates. In an uncertain world it’s something you can depend on !

Have you been down to God’s river . " And the Spirit and the bride say , Come . And let him that heareth say , Come . And let him that is athirst come . And whosoever will , let

him take the water of life freely ." [ Revelation 22;17 ] If you don’t have a relationship with Jesus Christ , ask Him to flow into your heart . The Bible says that Jesus water will be "...a well of water springing up into everlasting life ." Come now , and be washed in the river of Jesus’ love !

Romans 10 : 9 says " That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead , thou shalt be saved ." There’s healing in the river ! There’s peace in the river ! There’s comfort in the river , and there’s so much power in the river ! I’m so glad I took a plunge into the river of Jesus’ love!
