His Love

And Leah conceived, and bare a son, and she called His name Reuben: for she said, Surely the LORD hath looked upon my affliction; now therefore my husband will Love me.

The LORD did not set His Love upon you, nor choose you, because ye were more in number than any people; for ye were the fewest of all people:

Know therefore that the LORD thy God, he is God, the faithful God, which keepeth covenant and mercy with them that Love him and keep His commandments to a thousand generations;

• Heart

And now, Israel, what doth the LORD thy God require of thee, but to fear the LORD thy God, to walk in all His ways, and to Love him, and to serve the LORD thy God with all thy heart and with all thy soul,

Therefore thou shalt Love the LORD thy God, and keep His charge, and His statutes, and His judgments, and His commandments, alway.

For if ye shall diligently keep all these commandments which I command you, to do them, to Love the LORD your God, to walk in all His ways, and to cleave unto him;

If thou shalt keep all these commandments to do them, which I command thee this day, to Love the LORD thy God, and to walk ever in His ways; then shalt thou add three cities more for thee, beside these three:

In that I command thee this day to Love the LORD thy God, to walk in His ways, and to keep His commandments and His statutes and His judgments, that thou mayest live and multiply: and the LORD thy God shall bless thee in the land whither thou goest to possess it.

That thou mayest Love the LORD thy God, and that thou mayest obey His voice, and that thou mayest cleave unto him: for he is thy life, and the length of thy days: that thou mayest dwell in the land which the LORD sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them.

• Walking

But take diligent heed to do the commandment and the law, which Moses the servant of the LORD charged you, to Love the LORD your God, and to walk in all His ways, and to keep His commandments, and to cleave unto him, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul.

• Forty
• Righteous

So let all thine enemies perish, O LORD: but let them that Love him be as the sun when he goeth forth in His might. And the land had rest forty years.

And Saul commanded His servants, saying, Commune with David secretly, and say, Behold, the king hath delight in thee, and all His servants Love thee: now therefore be the king's son in law.

And said, I beseech thee, O LORD God of heaven, the great and terrible God, that keepeth covenant and mercy for them that Love him and observe His commandments:

{To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David, the servant of the LORD, who spake unto the LORD the words of this song in the day that the LORD delivered him from the hand of all His enemies, and from the hand of Saul: And he said,} I will Love thee, O LORD, my strength.

O Love the LORD, all ye His saints: for the LORD preserveth the faithful, and plentifully rewardeth the proud doer.

The seed also of His servants shall inherit it: and they that Love His name shall dwell therein.

Because he hath set His Love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name.

Ye that Love the LORD, hate evil: he preserveth the souls of His saints; he delivereth them out of the hand of the wicked.

But he that sinneth against me wrongeth His own soul: all they that hate me Love death.

Let him kiss me with the kisses of His mouth: for thy Love is better than wine.

Draw me, we will run after thee: the king hath brought me into His chambers: we will be glad and rejoice in thee, we will remember thy Love more than wine: the upright Love thee.

He brought me to the banqueting house, and His banner over me was Love.

Many waters cannot quench Love, neither can the floods drown it: if a man would give all the substance of His house for Love, it would utterly be contemned.

Also the sons of the stranger, that join themselves to the LORD, to serve him, and to Love the name of the LORD, to be His servants, every one that keepeth the sabbath from polluting it, and taketh hold of my covenant;

In all their affliction he was afflicted, and the angel 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.

And I prayed unto the LORD my God, and made my confession, and said, O Lord, the great and dreadful God, keeping the covenant and mercy to them that Love him, and to them that keep His commandments;

The LORD thy God in the midst of thee is mighty; he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy; he will rest in His Love, he will joy over thee with singing.

And let none of you imagine evil in your hearts against His neighbour; and Love no false oath: for all these are things that I hate, saith the LORD.

And to Love him with all the heart, and with all the understanding, and with all the soul, and with all the strength, and to Love His neighbour as himself, is more than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.

And he said unto them in His doctrine, Beware of the scribes, which Love to go in long clothing, and Love salutations in the marketplaces,

If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my Love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in His Love.

Greater Love hath no man than this, that a man lay down His life for His friends.

• Predestination

If ye were of the world, the world would Love His own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.

But God commendeth His Love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

And we know that all things work together for good to them that Love God, to them who are the called according to His purpose.

Love worketh no ill to His neighbour: therefore Love is the fulfilling of the law.

But God, who is rich in mercy, for His great Love wherewith he loved us,

• Assurance

So ought men to Love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth His wife loveth himself. For no man ever yet hated His own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church:

Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so Love His wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband.

Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that Love His appearing.

• Alms

For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of Love, which ye have shewed toward His name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister.

For he that will Love life, and see good days, let him refrain His tongue from evil, and His lips that they speak no guile:

• Assurance

But whoso keepeth His word, in him verily is the Love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in him.

We know that we have passed from death unto life, because we Love the brethren. He that loveth not His brother abideth in death.

Hereby perceive we the Love of God, because he laid down His life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.

• Bowels

But whoso hath this world's good, and seeth His brother have need, and shutteth up His bowels of compassion from him, how dwelleth the Love of God in him?

And this is His commandment, That we should believe on the name of His Son Jesus Christ, and Love one another, as he gave us commandment.

In this was manifested the Love of God toward us, because that God sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him.

Herein is Love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins.

No man hath seen God at any time. If we Love one another, God dwelleth in us, and His Love is perfected in us.

If a man say, I Love God, and hateth His brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not His brother whom he hath seen, how can he Love God whom he hath not seen?

And this commandment have we from him, That he who loveth God Love His brother also.

By this we know that we Love the children of God, when we Love God, and keep His commandments.

For this is the Love of God, that we keep His commandments: and His commandments are not grievous.

And this is Love, that we walk after His commandments. This is the commandment, That, as ye have heard from the beginning, ye should walk in it.
