I LOVE YOU

I LOVE YOU

                The answer to your question is YES! I love you with an everlasting love. My Father sent me to this world to show you what we are like. He asked me to put on human clothes and to walk your dusty streets so that in time you would be able to put on heavenly clothes and walk on golden streets.

                My Word tells you that the whole of creation is waiting in eager anticipation for the revealing of the sons of God. I have designated you to be one of those sons. I knew you before I created the world and I loved you then and so I predestined you to be conformed to My image. I want you to be just like Me. We have so many things to share together and in order to walk with me in the majesty of my divine appointments you must undergo training.

                But don’t worry about it. I will be with you every step of the way. I have taken up residence in your spirit and so your training is all based upon you learning to live by My power instead of your own. You are part of a fallen human race. Your father Adam fell from grace. I could no longer dwell inside of Him. That made it impossible for us to have the kind of fellowship that I crave.

                So I came down to earth to redeem you, to remove your sin, to cover your nakedness, to draw you back into fellowship. I took care of the legal stuff that Satan was demanding.  He is such a legalist. He thinks he can own you and erase My image from you. He has been successful more than I can bear. Most of My children don’t know Me, nor do they want to…but you said “yes.” You came out! You called on My name. You stumbled, you blundered, you rebelled at times, but you kept coming back.

                In your weak persistence I have seen something to work with. You want to be one of My revealed sons. You invited Me in. You renounced the world. You came to the altar and offered yourself up as a living sacrifice. You came to the end of yourself… and so I washed you clean and put My Spirit in you. Even before I created the world I saw your persistence. I saw something in you that made me decide to have you born into the world at the very end of the age.

                Over and over again you told me that you wanted to be one of the sons for whom all of creation waits. Your wish has been granted in the heavenly courts. You have been born into a very difficult time in earth history. Physical, moral and spiritual battles are raging on every side. Earth history is being drawn into a final conflagration. I have planted you in the middle of the war. There are some very tough times just ahead and that is why I am reminding you right now of your deep desires.

                You want to be like Me and so you must drink my cup. You must eat My flesh… all of it… the sweet and the bitter. You are being asked to overcome by My blood and by My Word.  It must be on your tongue at all times and in your heart at all times. Only My power can get you through this and that is why you must now lay aside every distraction and bend every spiritual effort towards learning to live by My power and not your own. You must live by My Word and not by your own ideas. You must live by My Spirit and not by your fallen flesh.

                You want to hear My voice more clearly. That will happen as you stop listening to all of the other voices that vie for your attention. You want to see Me more clearly… so close your eyes to anything that would defile you or muddy your mind. Satan has filled the world with evil images. Everything is designed to pull you into the flesh. Everything is designed to distract you… to make you feel weak… to make you doubt Me.

                I am here to walk in you… to empower you…to give you overwhelming victory… but you must choose Me over every other distraction. Everything is an illusion. My kingdom is the reality. Your kingdom is like foam on the waves of a much greater sea of reality. It is much greater than you can imagine. And while My kingdom seems invisible an ethereal to you, it is nevertheless eternal and much more real than your own. You must now learn to walk in it.

                So, the answer to your question is “Yes.” I love you with an everlasting love. I knew you from the foundation of the world; I presided over you as you were knitted together in your mother’s womb. I called you out of darkness and into My light. So take My hand. Walk with Me every day just like you are walking with Me right now and I promise you… you will become one of my revealed sons for whom all of creation waits.

                You have been born into the world for such a time as this. You are living here in this time because I knew that you could make it. I saw your heart when the sons of God shouted for joy at the creation of a new species. You asked to be one of the redeemed. I dwell in all of time. I heard your cries. I saw your heart and I loved you. So here we are… walking along the shores of time.

                You are about to enter a time of testing, but that testing will become the answer to your prayer. Trust in Me now and you will be among the sons of God for whom all creation waits. Time is critical. Now is the time when you must step more fully into my kingdom. You must operate more fully by My Spirit. The days of playing church are far gone. You are making the transition from church members to sons and daughters. You must live only to please Me. Your life must become a series of divine appointments. You must live like I lived when I was on earth… when I was showing you what I and My Father are like.

                I am now calling you to be My disciple… to enter my kingdom more fully through the cross and to live by the power of My resurrection. I have put it in you. I have given you everything you need. Everything that I am has been planted in your spirit like a seed that must spring up and fill your whole life. I am your hope of glory and I love you like no other.

                Thanks for walking with Me today my son. Now go out and tell everyone I put in your pathway about My plans. It is My plan right now to bring many sons to glory. Hebrews 2:10. You have been chosen. You are My plan for the last days. I must come IN you first and then I will come FOR you.

                Satan is mounting one last effort to rule the world. I have chosen you to represent Me as one of the revealed sons of God for whom all of creation waits.
