This past Sunday at New Life Assembly the Spirit of God truly moved in the heart of His people,and one of the members of the worship team shared about a song that held a very special place in her heart, and in that song it referred to God as “savior” . She shared that our God is a God that wants nothing more than to love us, to love you and me,,,,,Do grasp that at all??Gods love is completely and totally unconditional,there’s no secrete to it ,His love is not dependent upon finding something in us that merits His love. His love is without conditions.
We usually live in the realm or on the level of our worthiness and our condition. In this realm, whether or not God loves us depends very much upon whether or not we feel we are lovable. If we feel that we have “measured up” a little bit that we have had a “better” week or have done a few extra good things,then we feel that we can receive the love of God. Many times our perception of God’s attitude toward us is based on our own feelings about ourselves.
The Pastors wife brought forth a prophetic word from the Lord Sunday , and I feel it changed several life’s,Diane spoke about gods love for us , and that he loves you and I so so deeply, and how we at times have such a hard time accepting that love, maybe because of our past or even our current situation, and how God loves us no matter what the situation we are in or going through, we just need to accept His love for us. She shared how we need to say it over and over again, until we get it, and Diane I truly believe you were spot on. We need to keep telling ourselves that we are loved by God and that we are worthy of His love for us. I just want to “Thank You “ for your obedience to the Spirit of the Lord, there were great seeds sowed by the words you shared.
In Romans 9:13 the Lord says, “Jacob I have loved, but
Esau I have hated.” Jacob was the object of God’s love regardless of his condition — regardless of his rebellion, his conniving, his deceiving. Despite all that, the Lord followed him as “the hound of heaven.” Wherever Jacob went, the Lord was there alluring him, seeking him, winning him. This is another example of God’s love toward His people, and it is absolutely an unconditional kind of love.
So many times I feel that when we wake up in the morning , we take a look at our own spiritual condition and then we base our day ahead on it. We need to get out of that kind of mind set. God didn’t create any one of us to “Just get by” he created each and everyone of us to “EXCEL” .
We read in the book of Ephesians 3:16-21
“I pray that from his glorious, unlimited resources he will empower you with inner strength through his Spirit. Then Christ will make his home in your hearts as you trust in him. Your roots will grow down into God’s love and keep you strong. And may you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love is. May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God.Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think. Glory to him in the church and in Christ Jesus through all generations forever and ever! Amen.”
The Pastor placed yellow caution tape along the alter in the Church and he explained to the congregation that that tape represented a line that we need not be afraid to stop over , and that at times we need to be willing to throw caution to the wind, and step out of our current situations and into the situation that the Lord has for us. The Lord has so so so much for each and everyone of His children, we just need to be willing to step out of our comfy situations and take that step towards God , and what He wants for each and everyone of us. We were created for a purpose, His purpose,and that’s a good thing.
In closing , remember this my dear friends, You have His love in the morning to give you a reason to get out of bed. ,You have His love in afternoon to help you get through a really bad day at work,You have His love in the evening to comfort you when the bills are not paid, the children are tired and complaining, and work around the house is still waiting to be finished,You have His love when you are falsely accused,You have His love when you lose your best friend. In all of life you have His love available to you. You experience His love as you believe in Him and commit yourself and your situation to Him. Just remember ,,,,God just wants to love YOU!!!!!!!will YOU let HIM?????WILL YOU?????
Blessings!
