Why We Love Him

1. JESUS REDEEMED US AND GOT US BACK TO FATHER GOD

1 Pet 1:18-19 knowing that you were not redeemed (purchased) with corruptible things, like silver or gold, from your aimless conduct received by tradition from your fathers, 19 but with the precious blood of Christ, as a lamb without blemish and without spot.

Jesus Redeemed us from the slavery of sin with His blood
“Redeemed” - Purchased with a price out of slavery’s bondage

Rev 5:9 they sang a new song, saying: “You are worthy to take the scroll, And to open its seals; For You were slain, And have redeemed us to God (The Father) by Your blood Out of every tribe and tongue and people and nation

2. BECAUSE HE REDEEMED US WE LOVE AND WANT TO PLEASE HIM

Matt 3:17 When He had been baptized, Jesus came up immediately from the water; and behold, the heavens were opened to Him, and He saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and alighting upon Him. 17 And suddenly a voice came from heaven, saying, “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.”

We can never earn his affection and love we already have it
He will never love us more then he already does  
My life lesson - You are my son and that is enough

2 Cor 6:18 “I will be a Father to you, And you shall be My sons and daughters, Says the Lord Almighty.”

1 Jn 4:19 We love him, because he first loved us.

I love him that’s why I thankfully worship Him

Jn 4:23 the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him. 

Lk 17:16-17 And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, and with a loud voice glorified God, 16 And fell down on his face at his feet, giving him thanks: and he was a Samaritan. 17 And Jesus answering said, Were there not ten cleansed? but where are the nine?

Lk 7:47 I say to you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven, for she loved much. But to whom little is forgiven, the same loves little.”

I love Him that’s why I’m willing to obey His Commands

Jn 14:14-15 if you ask anything in My name, I will do it. 15 “If you love Me, keep My commandments.

Matt 28:18-19 Go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,

I love Him that’s why I trust Him to keep His promises

Heb 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him

Jn 16:23b "Verily, verily, I say unto you, whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in my name, He will give it you."
