Where can you find out about Jesus’ heart?
The simple answer is: in The Bible. That is also a complicated answer.
In the beginning was the word and the word was with God and the word was God. John 1:1
So, we know The Bible is Jesus in written form.
His word is powerful no matter where you read or what you are reading, it is the Word of God.
There is no way to find every verse where God shares His heart, but He does so throughout His word.
A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good;
and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil:
for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh. Luke 6:45
Basically, what people say is what they are all about. It’s the same with Jesus.
What He says is. You will find no place in the bible where Jesus took back anything He said.
He says what He means and He means what He says.
People like to try to change God’s intent when they don’t like what He says.
Not possible.
They like to say we are under a new covenant, which we are. We are set free from the law.
However, the law was given so that we would know right from wrong.
What shall we say then? Is the law sin? God forbid. Nay, I had not known sin,
but by the law: for I had not known lust, except the law had said, Thou shalt not covet. Romans 7:7
Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.
For verily I say unto you,
Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.
Matthew 5:17-18
We know God has love in His heart for the world:
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son,
that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:16
And it repented the Lord that He had made man on the earth, and it grieved Him at his heart. Genesis 6:6 It grieved Him at His heart. Man hurt His feelings in a very deep way.
The Lord thy God in the midst of thee is mighty; He will save, He will rejoice over thee with joy;
He will rest in his love, He will joy over thee with singing. Zephaniah 3:17
Jesus loves the people He created. for some, we become a great joy in His heart
as He loves us so much and sings over us and loves us ever so dearly.
If we are created in the image of God, it doesn’t take much to imagine how God has feelings,
just like we do, all the feelings that we feel. Be angry and sin not as it says in the word.
In the Old Testament, God shared His heart with the prophets.
In the New Testament, Jesus shared His love for the world with all who would listen.
God rejoices when we put our lives in His hands
and He walks with us through the thick and thin of all that we encounter,
always having the opportunity to draw closer to Him in our trials and triumphs.
Let God teach you what is in His heart. it will be the most beautiful heart you will ever know.
