The complete KJV guide to the love of God
What the Bible says about God's love
The Bible's clearest statements about God's love are attached to action rather than sentiment. 'God so loved the world, that he gave' (John 3:16); 'God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us' (Romans 5:8). Love in the KJV is demonstrated at cost, which is why the cross is always the reference point for the doctrine.
Love that does not fluctuate
Jeremiah 31:3 calls it an everlasting love, and Romans 8:38-39 lists everything that cannot separate us from it — a list deliberately long enough to include whatever the reader is currently afraid of. Because God's love originates in His character rather than in the loveliness of its object, it is not adjusted by yesterday's failure.
Feeling loved versus being loved
Scripture rarely instructs believers to work up a feeling. Instead it tells them to know, to comprehend, and to abide — Ephesians 3:17-19 prays for the strength to grasp dimensions that pass knowledge. Many people arrive at this topic unable to feel loved by God; the biblical response is to keep looking at the evidence until the feeling follows the fact.

1 Corinthians 13:4-7
Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil; Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth; Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.
Romans 8:38-39
For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
1 John 4:19
We love him, because he first loved us.

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.
