Loving Jesus with All Your Heart

INTRO

We know of 3 types of angels:

Cherubim, Demons, and Seraphim.

1. Seraphim love God with their heart

2. Demons hate God with soul

3. Cherubim love God with mind

“They never love me back”

Four-year-old Martha, hugging a doll in each of her pudgy little arms, looked wistfully up at her mother and said, “Mamma, I love them and love them and love them, but they never love me back.”

God loves you and love you and loves you.

Will you love Him back?

Cherubim or Seraphim?

Cherub comes from a Heb word that means knowledge.

Seraphim comes from a word that means flame

so

Cherub could represent the knowledge of God

Seraphim could represent the love of God.

the boy said when he dies he wants to be a seraphim. He said “I would rather love God then to know everything”

CONTENT (8 things that have to do with loving God with our heart)

1. When you love God with all your heart you don't care who knows.

think of a couple deeply in love where they don't care who sees them make out. There is no shame in loving God.

2. Loving God with all your heart is to be extremely in love God.

Basically you cant express it any clearer.

3. Loving God is even obsessive.

Where you're not ever done with God.

4. Loving God is even intimate.

You share with God all the details of your life. And make your self vulnerable to His Will. Just like a couple in love they share everything with each other and.

5. Loving God is sensitive.

It doesn't want anything to get in the way. This is why sometimes when your bestfriend falls in love that she doesn't want to hang out with you anymore… because she doesn't want anything to effect her relationship with her man.

With God we become sensitive to sin… we simply have no desire to sin.

6. Loving God is full of passion

Every moment with your love is exciting even when your just sitting there.

7. Loving God carries many emotions and feelings

Loving with your heart. Or emotional love is scientifically similar to the moods of a drug addict.

I guess you can say that loving Jesus with our heart is like an addiction.

Scientists describe this heart love addiction:

in these 3 ways

1. exhilaration - a word for happiness (normally a feeling that follows victory) - victorious love

in a relationship this is like when you first find out the person you have crush on likes you or loves you. its the same feeling with God.

Your just so excited by God.

2. euphoria, a word for happiness (a feeling that wants to continue victory)

in a relationship this is like when after your crush just left and you miss them already,

cant stop thinking about him, and all he or she said and did.

the same with God where you just cant get enough of God’s Words.

3. increased energy which gives you the strength to continue have victorious love.

and when your relationship suffers even the smallest setback you feel:

sleeplessness - because you didn't spend time with Him or sinned

loss of appetite - because you didn't spend time with Him or sinned

trembling - because you didn't spend time with Him or sinned

a racing heart and accelerated breathing - because you didn't spend time with Him or sinned

anxiety, panic and feelings of despair - because you didn't spend time with Him or sinned

8. Loving God with all your heart is selfless

its all about the one you love.

It is doing good for the one you love even when it doesn't benefit you.

It doesn't even matter if it kills you you will do it because thats what you love wants.

With God He died for you so that you can be happy.

Will you die to yourself and live selflessly for Christ?

1 John 3:16 NKJV

16 By this we know love, because He laid down His life for us. And we also ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.

Im not teaching suicide at all but I am saying that to love God with all your heart you don't live for yourself or anyone else.

Its all about Jesus.

CONCLUSION

Question do you love God with all of your heart?

Do you carelessly, extremely, obsessively, intimately, sensitivity, passionately and selflessly love God with exhilaration, euphoria, in an increased energy? That when you are distanced from God you are sleepless, lose appetite, and tremble as your heart is racing in anxiety, panic, and despair?

Then you don't love God with all your heart.

Who and what is in the way?

Love makes obedience a thing of joy!

To do the will of one we like to please

Is never hardship, though it tax our strength;

Each privilege of service love will seize!

Love makes us loyal, glad to do or go,

And eager to defend a name or cause;

Love takes the drudgery from common work,

And asks no rich reward or great applause.

Love gives us satisfaction in our task,

And wealth in learning lessons of the heart;

Love sheds a light of glory on our toil

And makes us humbly glad to have a part.

Love makes us choose to do the will of God,

To run His errands and proclaim His truth;

It gives our hearts an eager, lilting song;

Our feet are shod with tireless wings of youth!
