#soap # Luke 03 ## Title: You Bring God Great Joy ## Scripture: (Luke 3:22) and the Holy Spirit descended on him in bodily form like a dove. And a voice came from heaven, “You are my one dear Son; in you I take great delight.” (NET) ## Observation: Look at the love the Father shows to the Son. He pours that same love on us. We are dearly loved by God. This is one of the greatest joys that the enemy wants to hide from us. We live lives where we feel we must constantly prove ourselves and all our relationships are conditional. When it comes to God, He already loves us. The Father said this to the Son before He had ever worked a single miracle or preached a single message. God doesn’t love you because of your performance. He loves you because you are His. ## Application: Think about the love of God today and focus on how unchanging it is. ## Prayer: Thank You, Jesus, for loving us completely, wholly, and unreservedly.
