LOVE, LOVE, LOVE:THE OVERWHELMING RUSHING OF GOD’S LOVE
For the remainder of February and the month of March (my month), I will be expounding on LOVE. Why? Because God said, not man, that this, of all His commandments, is the greatest. Love is the foundation from which all forms of righteousness spring. It is the only emotion God has given man access to, and permission to use freely, that brings back a harvest of more than enough, both in his spiritual and natural life. So, let’s dig deeper into the meaning of the why, the how, and the in-so-much-as, of LOVE. And all of us are to be about LOVE, GOD’S LOVE! AMEN.
LOVE. WHO IS LOVE; GOD. GOD IS LOVE. WHAT DOES THIS WORLD NEED; LOVE. WHY DO WE NEED LOVE? IT CREATES THE FOUNDATION FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS. SO, IF WE NEED LOVE AND GOD IS LOVE, THEN WE (DESPERATELY) NEED GOD. LOVE IS THE KEY. IN HIS WORD HE HOLDS THE ANSWERS TO ALL THE QUESTIONS ASKED, TRIALS, TROUBLES, AND TRIBULATIONS CONFRONTED, NOW AND FOREVER. HIS WORD (JESUS) FORMS AN EVER-PROTECTING BARRIER, A FENCE OF LOVE, BETWEEN US AND SIN (A SIN SO GREAT IT OVERTAKES US) WHICH WOULD PREVENT US FROM OUR ACCESS TO YAH AND THE MOVEMENT OF OUR FAITH. HE BECOMES OUR BOUNDARY, A IMPENETRIBLE DIVIDING LINE, PREVENTING OUR ENEMY TO CROSS, ALL THE WHILE GIVING US THE CHANCE TO PRAISE AND HONOR HIM IN TRUTH. HIS ARM OF LOVE, MERCY, AND GRACE IS ALWAYS AROUND THOSE OF US WHO HAVE FAITH, TRUST, AND BELIEVE IN HIM. HE DOES NOT FAIL. HE FINDS NO FAULT IN HIS CREATION (HIS CREATION, MAN, FOUND THE FAULT IN/FOR THEMSELVES. FOR THIS WAYWARD ACT, HIS LOVE THROUGH HIS SON’S (JESUS’) BLOOD, HAS COVERED ALL SINS. NOW TELL ME, WHERE CAN YOU FIND A BETTER DEFINITION OF LOVE AND DEVOTION THAN THE ONE WHO IS THE “I AM”? HE IS LOVE!
Why do people want to get rid of God, Who is Love. We neglect the cultivation and implementation of Love in our lives so that we can create a foundation of righteousness through Jesus. To avoid such commitment causes us to miss out on the true love and abundance YHWH, God, through Yashuah, Jesus, has for us. And when we do, everyone involved in our life, especially YHWH, God, is done a great disservice. Yet, open wide their doors for the devil, who is evil, and welcome him as he uses man to bring all the different types of destruction (unknown to man) of righteousness with him and man actually think that that is the way to go. But, as I will continue to acknowledge, LOVE conquers all. And Who is LOVE? GOD IS LOVE. (1 John 4:16 16 And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him. 1 John 4:7-10 7 Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. 8 He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love. 9 In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him. 10 Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins).
If you would, notice the way people attempt to ignore and avoid dealing with YHWH, (The only One who can make it better); They do not want to say Jesus because then it becomes too personal: Jesus the One Who saves. No, they like to throw around the word god (with a little g) because so many things have been attached to it, (not the true GOD, but the false ones, including themselves), they feel safe saying it without fear of fallout from the world. Men have this mindset that he, himself, given time, will correct the problems. Even though the facts point directly to him, that he is the cause of the problem: why there is so much sadness, anger, confusion, and the inability in today’s world to proceed in the direction YAH, God etched out for you and me. In order for man’s life to remain or get on the righteous path of God, he must submit, repent, and serve. Because when the mind has been turned into a reprobate one, those who see it as the way life is, these days, have a hard time accepting any other alternative; true love, from their viewpoint, has not shown its beautiful head in a long time and when it does most are skeptical. They do not know the True and Living God. (1 John 4:5-6 5 They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them. 6 We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error).
We are living in a very vicarious world today. And only God knows the outcome. But as He said in His Word, (and I believe) it will work out for our good, for those that are faithful, have belief, and trust in Him. So, knowing that no matter what man or the enemy say, Gods got it so we will not worry nor fear but this is what we, as the true children of God, through the help of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus, need to do. We need to stop whining and complaining, get down on our knees and exclaim to the LORD “send me Lord, wherever you need me to go” And with faith, trust, and belief, go! (Romans 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. Isaiah 6:8 Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I, Here am I; send me).
God’s love is like the rushing wind, constantly moving and contending with that which is not necessary in our life. We may not see it, but like the wind it is all around us. It overflows and creates an outer edge, for our worship and praise to touch. It surrounds and confines, in it, (as we seek YHWH, God, in Yashuah, Jesus’ name), all that we are and will be. It is our border, where the integrity of our righteousness is contained. The balance of our spiritual and natural life depends on the love we have for God, self, and others, and the works (of the spirit) we perform. Let us be mindful of these “works” to be sure they are the product of God’s love and truth and our sincere wish to develop the love relationship, need with YAH and others to maintain a healthy life: good works are the healthy product of repentance, as a good fruit is the product of a healthy tree. Sin and evil may stand at our heart’s door beckoning to come in, but it is God’s love we learn to lean on and be inclined to desire and choose over the desires of the world: In it we will realize the strengthening it has (a love border of faith) which no man’s influence can infiltrate and cause us to get off our path. It is like the wind, all around us, and we know its origin, yet we do not know in which direction it will come. (1 Corinthians 16:14 – Let all your things be done with charity.
Hebrews 10:24-25And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works: Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.
John 3:8 The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit).
GODS GOT IT NO WORRY NO FEAR. GOD IS LOVE
