Constrained by His Cords

Read:  Psalm 87 / Proverbs 01 / Jeremiah 31 / 2 Cor. 5 

 

Psalm 87:3,6 ~ Glorious things are spoken of thee, O city of God… The LORD shall count, when he writeth up the people, that this man was born there. Selah.

Proverbs 1:29, 33 ~ For that they hated knowledge, and did not CHOOSE the fear of the LORD… But whoso hearkeneth unto me shall dwell safely, and shall be quiet from fear of evil.

Jeremiah 31:3 ~ The LORD hath appeared of old unto me, saying, Yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love: therefore with lovingkindness have I drawn thee.

2 Corinthians 5:14 ~ For the love of Christ constraineth us; because… if one died for all, then were all dead:

 

Behold that city glorious

Wherein the born again shall dwell! 

Behold our Lord victorious

Who died to rescue us from hell!   

 

With cords of love our Savior drew 

The hearts of ALL humanity. 

We are constrained to love Him too

Because He died to make us free.
