WHERE HAS THE LOVE AND TIME FOR GOD GONE: WE NEED TO GET IT BACK

(Matthew 22:37–39 37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.38 This is the first and great commandment. 39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself).

This scripture instructs us in the act which sets the tone of everything else in your life. It is an all-inclusive one which let is know that it is the love and time for GOD that is to take precedent over everything in our lives. When we love Him first and make the time to commune with Him, all other areas of our life will come into alignment. Stop settling for a world-filled life and start living a God-filled life. Amen.

We are so busy looking for someone or something to replace God until we have taken the time to get to truly know Him away from Him. We have given up on God’s power, presence, and Him being worthy of our prostrated ourselves before Him. But we must understand that it is He and He alone that can and does adapt to do many things or serve many functions in the course of our life. Who else has those capabilities?  Who else will continue to love us (unworthy as we are) in spite of all the shortcomings we possess? Who else can bring your life back from being dead in sin? Who else can and do grant mercy and grace to a world that has no interest in Him and what His Son, our Christ stands for? Questions like these can be a continuous scenario and the answer is and always will be no one but GOD. Because YHWH, GOD, is The creator, therefore, He knows everyone and everything, on this earth and in heaven, ins and outs; He knows the capability and limitation of everyone and everything. Wouldn’t you rather entrust the creator of your soul, Who has a plan and purpose, and has set a path, to be the guiding light in your life and not someone or something who don’t have a clue of who you really are to do it. (James 4:8 Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded).

It is so sad that the world has come to a place where we, even God’s children, sell ourselves out to the highest bidder out of greed, vanity, and stupidity; we let go of the true hope in YAH, through Yashuah, Jesus, too fast. This giving up and letting go happens when things are going great (we don’t need Him now, we got this) and when things are going not so great (because I act a butt head when things were going great, I am too ashamed to repent and go back). But we can be half dead, delusional, and disoriented (you become even more when you give up on God) and we will go out of our way to give time to go to work, school, gossip, criticize, hate, plot and scheme, lie, cheat, and steal and so many more things that distract us from God, rather than spend it in His presence. The enemy of GOD’s love, His children, is the author of these impositions. It is the impostor (Satan) which imposes and encroaches on the will, plan, and promises for yours and my life, that have been authored by God. And yes, we are always in His presence because He is everywhere at all times. But do we feel, acknowledge, and desire to cultivate the relationship that goes along with what the awareness and activities brings into our lives. To want God in your life is a decision you make (the one thing that truly matters) and is a true blessing for you and to our Father; not a sacrifice which means you give up living. Instead of giving God up, you will have to give up all the rough, jagged edges and proceed to live your best life. The jagged edges are the things that infringes on your ability to accept and serve God as your one and only GOD. They represent all speech, thought, and actions contrary to the will of God; sinful things. 

The things that we look at as being more important than serving, honoring, and praising God are the things that are going to lead us astray. It is not unusual for one to go through hell or high water to get to work (rather on time or not), to a party, or a game. But come Sunday morning or any other day of service or worship, we find all sorts of excuses not to get out of bed, wash ourselves, put on clothes, and go to the physical building called the church; where we can gather, in person, with one another. That is meeting God at His place of worship; it helps prepare us for the day of Christ. (Hebrews 10:25 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).

Due to the weak state many of us have rendered our minds to, the effect of the pandemic and all the other things that God is allowing to take place, (unlike yester years when our forefathers were hit will all sorts or diseases and disasters, where they put on their big boy and big girls under garments, girded up their loins and handled it) are just ruining instead of maturing a large part of us. We have allowed our thoughts to be corrupted and our mission misguided, instead of opening our eyes and bringing us closer to God; we have pushed farther away. We stayed inside our minds, instead of the Spirit, so long handing over our power to the evil one, opening us up to easy access to becoming a part of a dying world. In the midst of the gossiping, scheming, plotting, criticizing everything we thought was going wrong (while in the process of trying to cope, in our own mind), we lost God. For some it will be a long row to hoe, but the effort and outcome is worth it. Yet even though He is way, truth, and the life, because of our vain and arrogant nature, we will not bother to seek His face and depend on His Word (Yashuah), wisdom, will and way, but blame Him for man’s sins. Please get to know this one thing, nothing of value or longevity comes to anyone unless it has come through Jesus from the Father. (John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me). Due to their lack of faith and limited vision a great number of so-called Christians have pushed Him to the side and begin to get totally emerged in self and the problems. Look at today’s condition. Not only is it spiritual but physical, and also mental. There will never be understanding until we re-introduce God into our lives and give Him the reins to guide; His presence in our life helps us to understand why there are these continuously violent, problems and conditions (pandemic, war, floods) taking place so often in today’s time. It also helps us to see, know, and feel the passion of God’s process to fulfill His promises.

God’s presence is the only true, everlasting foundation for peace, love, joy, and happiness, in our lives. When we become wise enough to grasp His concept of how it should be, we will no longer try and exclude Him but include Him in every aspect of it. Knowing the LORD’s law, precepts, commandments, and rules gives us a healthy fear for a testimony comprised of revived soul, eyes that see, ears that hear, wise beyond your imagination, and a heart to receive all that which God intend for you. God’s love is true, righteous, and it has no limit nor end; it last and endures forever. Through God’s laws, commandments, precepts, etc., our purposes are made clear (we must first know YHWH in order to know His Word, Jesus). An to know that in keeping them while on our journey through life, the reward that follows is far greater than that which we encountered on the journey. (Psalm 19:7-11 7 The law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple. 8 The statutes of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart: the commandment of the Lord is pure, enlightening the eyes. 9 The fear of the Lord is clean, enduring for ever: the judgments of the Lord are true and righteous altogether. 10 More to be desired are they than gold, yea, than much fine gold: sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb. 11 Moreover by them is thy servant warned: and in keeping of them there is great reward).

Finding your way back home to God is easy. And you will see that the things you thought and think that He ask of you are light compared to what worry, frustration, anger, and hatred bring you.  So, when you get God back into your lives acknowledge to Him (He already knows) that your future in His hand and that you are going to allow Jesus to be your Lord and Saviour and walk in the shadow of His love. When you do this, you will be too large for worry, your nobility will outshine anger, you will be able to call upon the inert strength, given by God through Jesus, when needed, and you will not fear, and you will be overwhelmed with so much happiness that you will not allow trouble to disturb your peace. (Psalms 16:5: You, LORD, are all I have, and you give me all I need; my future is in your hands).

I am a wife, mother, grandmother and great grand. I love my family, friends and everyone I meet. But most of all I love me some YHWH Who is the lifter of my head and the light of my life's pathway. Without Him I can do nothing but with Him nothing is impossible for me to do.
