So Great a Love by Benny Hinn

So Great a Love

“And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.” 1 Corinthians 13:13
When we love God in response to His love for us, everything changes. What and how I give back to Him are only partial expressions of my love. I also love Him in my service, in my worship, in my dedication, in my obedience, in my relationships – in everything. If my love for Him is not evident in everything I do, then I’m not totally surrendered.
In Mark 12:30 we read:

“And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all they heart, and with all they soul, and with all they mind, and with all they strength.”
When we grasp the dimension of His love, we are so overwhelmed that everything we are and have becomes His.
As the apostle Paul declared in Galatians 2:20:

“I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me.”
In the presence of such great love, we can’t help being touched and overwhelmed. Truly, the love of Christ constrains us to give Him our very best. Our Father is never content with leftovers, for throughout Scripture, we find the Father asking for the first and the best, for surrender.
