[[-SOAP HUB]] | [[-Psalm Overview]] | [[Psalm 117]] ## Title: The Power of Love ## Scripture: (Psalm 117:2) “For his loyal love towers over us, and the Lord’s faithfulness endures. Praise the Lord.” (NET) ## Observation: Today’s song is the shortest in the book of Psalms. In my imagination, I have wondered if this was one of those songs that repeated these lyrics over and over again accompanied by a lot of musical solos. Either way, this song has a powerful point. It says God’s love for us is powerful. Have you ever thought about that? There are many things we have a passing care about. We say we love certain foods. We say we love sports teams. We say we love seasons of the year. However, there are some things or people that we love so much that our love for them compels us to action. We truly love our family. We truly love our closest friends. God’s love for us is not a passive love that fades away with the season. His love is so strong that He was willing to come to Earth, die on our Cross, and rise again so we can have life. That is a powerful force. That same love that kept Him on the Cross is the same love He has for you right now. You have never been more loved than you are right now. ## Application: Think about how much the Lord loves you. ## Prayer: Thank You, Jesus, for loving us even when we do not always love ourselves.
