God so Loved - We the Kingdom
Starting in the most important place.
When we talk about love, we’re not just talking about some fluffy, intangible concept.
We’re talking about the sacrificial, beautifully selfless love that Jesus showed when He gave His life in our place.
Because of his life, death and resurrection we have been restored to relationship with our Father in heaven - and get to experience the perfect love of God!
Turn this one up! In fact not just this song, check out their whole live album - it’s often blaring loudly in my house!
2. Landslide - Rita Springer
God is the only constant.
The one who we can rely on consistently.
Often emotional, romantic love, can rely on feelings.
Love between friends can fade away.
But God’s love is always waiting in the wings, ready to wrap our heart up in His love.
Let His arms envelop you as you listen to the call - He’s after your heart.
It’s the best place to be: hidden in the shadow of His wings. Let His love landslide over you today.
3. Good and Loved - Travis Greene and Steffany Gretzinger
This song needs no explanation.
It’s pure gold, from God’s heart to yours.
Let His voice sing over you.
4. What Love Looks Like - Elle Limebear
It’s a incomprehensible love to the human mind.
Look into the face of Jesus and you’ll perfect love on display.
If you need reminding of what love looks like, check out the gospels - Luke is my go for getting into the beautiful life of Jesus on earth.
Or remind yourself of Paul’s lesson in what love looks like in 1 Corinthians 13:4-7
Love is…
5. Over and Over - Riley Clemmons ft. Lauren Alaina
If you’re in any doubt about the mess or mistakes, remember God’s grace.
It’s so mind-glowingly good. And it all flows from His love for you.
His love keeps choosing you, over and over again.
Are you going to embrace each sunshine and acknowledge His goodness and grace in your life?
For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight. In love
Ephesians 1:4 (NIV)
6. Love Lifting Me - Tasha Layton
Very similar vibes to a recent Dua Lipa pop classic but there’s a BIG difference with this catchy tune.
Tasha has packed this song full of truth and encouragement.
Whatever you’re facing today know that there is a love more powerful. God will fight for you.
Let God’s love lift you today as you boogey round your kitchen.
7. Heartbeat - Switch
If you’re ever in doubt just how close God is, take a listen to these lyrics.
“your blood poured out for mine,
my purpose redefined
I’m found in your heartbeat”
Accompanied by a funky beat I guarantee you’ll be blasting this full volume ready for the kitchen disco to commence.
8. Child of Love - We the Kingdom ft. Bear Rinehart of NEEDTOBREATHE
Not gonna lie, this is one of my new all time faves!
Nothing can change the way He loves you. No past mistake, or future mess up will ever change how the God of heaven and earth feels about you dear child.
Wrapped up in this classic retro rock sound with a touch of country this’ll get your air guitars going!
Remember who's you are!
If you are a child of God, then you are a child of love.
9. Just As I Am - Jason Crabb
This one is a great reminder that you are loved ‘just as you are’. Hot off the press this song is packed full of the gospel; that through the highs, and through the lows, God’s love for you never changes.
10. The Proof of Your Love - for King and Country
Ending with a slight curveball here.
This music video is chillingly powerful as it stirs us to think, what on earth are we doing with the love that’s been given to us.
We might speak with eloquence, hold powerful positions in society, earn mountains of money, but without love it all means nothing.
We might even be doing good things, but yet without love, all our actions are empty.
Praying you’d be transformed by the love of God today as you listen to these tunes. That you’d know his life-changing, never giving up, perfect love in your life. So that you in turn can go and change the world with the same love.
If I speak God’s Word with power, and if I have faith that says to a mountain, “Jump,” and it jumps, but I don’t love, I’m nothing. "revealing all his mysteries and making everything plain as day, and if I have faith that says to a mountain, “Jump,” and it jumps, but I don’t love, I’m nothing." 1 Corinthians 13:2 NLT
Stay Tuned In
Don’t be jaded by the world’s interpretation of love. Tune into the Father’s voice and let His love transform your heart today. Share the love with friends!
Plugging into a playlist of great worship music might help point to the true love source, but your ultimate foundation should always be in your relationship with Jesus.
His love for you was demonstrated on the cross. And you can share in His resurrection if you accept His love in your life.
Never forget just how loved you are.
