The Bible tells one story and points to one figure. It narrates how God rescues His
world that we wrecked, and exalts Christ as the One who accomplishes the rescue.
In the Old Testament God revealed Himself through types and shadows, promises
and prophecies. In the New Testament God reveals Himself in Christ, who is the
substance of every shadow and the fulfillment of every promise and prophecy. The
Old Testament predicts God’s Rescuer; the New Testament presents God’s Rescuer.
Therefore, the whole Bible – both the Old and New Testaments – is all about God’s
Rescuer. Tullian Tchividjian
Scripture
Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves
has been born of God and knows God. Whoever does not love does not know God,
because God is love. This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one
and only Son into the world that we might live through him. This is love: not that
we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our
sins. 1 John 4:7-10 NIV

Love
You've captured me again
Love
You steal my heart
And oh when I reach out
You're always there
You've captured me again
Oh God
You steal my heart
And oh when I reach out
You're always there
Cause love has come to rescue me
Your love has come to set me free
Your love, love is all I need
Your love
Hey!
Love
You've captured me again
Oh my God
You steal my heart
And oh when I cry out
You're always there
Cause love has come to rescue me
Your love has come to set me free
Your love, love is all I need
Your love
Your love has come to rescue me
Your love has come to set me free
Your love, love is all I need
Your love
I've never felt more found
Than when I'm lost in you
My head may spin around
Like the stars of the night sky do
Your love has come to rescue me
Your love has come to set me free
Your love, love is all I need
Your love
Your love has come to rescue me
Your love has come to set me free
Your love, love is all I need
Your love
Your love has come to rescue me
Your love has come to set me free
Your love, love is all I need
Your love
Sentence Prayer
Jesus my great Rescuer;
Love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness,
faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.
To these I commit my day.
If I succeed, I will give thanks.
If I fail, I will seek Your grace.
And then, when this day is done,
I will place my head on my pillow and rest. Amen
