God So Loved - In the Bible [Verses & Devotional]

The song “God So Loved” by Hillsong Worship is a powerful reminder of the love of God and the power of His grace. The chorus of the song speaks to the truth of John 3:16, “For God so loved the world that He gave His only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.” This verse reminds us of the incredible love of God and the lengths He went to in order to save us. 

The verses of the song speak to the power of God’s love and grace in our lives. The first verse speaks to the power of holding onto the cross and God alone. This is a reminder of the truth of Hebrews 12:2, “Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before Him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.” This verse reminds us that Jesus endured the cross for us and that we should hold onto Him and His love. 

The second verse speaks to the power of waiting upon the Lord and His Word. This is a reminder of the truth of Psalm 27:14, “Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord.” This verse reminds us that we should wait upon the Lord and His Word and that He will give us strength and courage. 

The bridge of the song speaks to the power of Jesus’ blood and the freedom it brings. This is a reminder of the truth of Romans 5:8, “But God demonstrates His own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” This verse reminds us of the incredible love of God and the freedom that comes through Jesus’ death on the cross. 

The song “God So Loved” is a powerful reminder of the love of God and the power of His grace. May we all remember the truth of these verses and the power of Jesus’ blood to set us free.
