Tuesday: God Is Love
Daily Lesson for Tuesday 7th of April 2026
Love is perhaps the most common word used by Christians to describe God’s character. This could be because of the identity statement about God in 1 John 4:8, which says, “God is love.” John doesn’t say, “God is loving,” but rather, “God is love.” Love is His character, the very essence of who He is.
For many people, their picture of God emerges from their human definition of love, which is always distorted and imperfect. Instead, our very definition of love should be shaped by who God is and what He reveals about Himself in His inspired Word.
What does 1 John 4:7-19 explain to us about love?

God’s love is perfect, free, and deeply relational, as revealed in the repeated invitation to “abide” in Him in 1 John, because “we have known and believed the love that God has for us. God is love, and he who abides in love abides in God, and God in him” (1 John 4:16, NKJV). God is love, and He created us in His image (Genesis 1:27) to love and to desire love. In Hebrew, one major word for love is ḥ__esed. This describes God’s covenant love for humanity, which encompasses traits of loyalty, protectiveness, steadfastness, and tenderness.
The ancient languages of Hebrew and Greek use many different names to refer to God, names whose meanings capture and shed light on different aspects of God’s beautiful character. Here are just two examples:
• Adonai: The Lord of all, who reigns forever, in reference to the covenant (Genesis 15:2, Judges 6:15, Malachi 1:6, Psalms 97:5).
• Yahweh-Yireh: The-Lord-Will-Provide (Genesis 22:13-14, NKJV).
Ultimately, the greatest expression of God’s love is revealed through the gift of His Son to this earth (John 3:16) who died for sinners (Romans 5:8). God could have withheld this from humanity, yet because of His magnanimous, radical, supremely altruistic love, God sent Jesus to earth so that we might freely choose to respond to His love, revealed in His substitutionary death on our behalf. Not only did Jesus bridge the separation that sin has brought between us and God (Isaiah 59:1-2), He lived to show us God’s perfect character of love (John 14:9, Hebrews 1:3) and to draw all people to Himself (John 12:32).

Many of God’s names capture His holiness and love at their core. Read 1 Corinthians 13:4-8 _(NKJV)_, and in every case, replace the word “love” with “God.” How does this expand your understanding of God’s character? If you were to place your name where it says “love,” how well would that fit you? |

Do you believe in creation? Do you believe that a Divine Creator spoke all this into being? Or do you believe our origin was undefined, accidental, or random? We believe we were created, chosen, and loved on purpose. If you do too, share this post! Source: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/xY64apKcNXQ
Why aren’t we all prophesying, Aunty, like Paul said we should?
6 April 2026 | Dear Aunt Sevvy, Our church says we had a prophet (long gone). But the Bible says that Christ’s followers should all desire earnestly to prophesy. I’m confused. What makes a person a prophet—and why were there so many back then, and none now? Gentle Reader: Those are good questions—because little of […] Source: https://atoday.org/why-arent-we-all-prophesying-aunty-like-paul-said-we-should/
