Dad's Compassionate Ear!

"Awake, my soul! Awake, harp and lyre! I will awaken the dawn. I will praise you, O Lord, among the nations; I will sing of you among the peoples. For great is your love, reaching to the heavens; your faithfulness reaches to the skies. Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; let your glory be all over the earth." Psalm 57:8-11

"When Jesus landed and saw a large crowd, he had compassion on them and healed their sick." Matthew 14:14

"For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we...yet without sin. Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need." Hebrews 4:15-16

While driving into the parking lot of a local supermarket, my eyes immediately shifted to a small form falling to the pavement. A girl, who appeared to be in her mid-teens, had apparently jammed vulnerable fingers in a shopping cart being pushed by a friend.

"It hurts! Oh, it hurts so much! Please help me!" Her plea was urgent, seemingly perpetual and heart-moving. In simple terms, she was begging for anyone to take away the excruciating agony. Bystanders helplessly watched while that precious child continued pleading. As for me, I just wanted to hug away all her pain, or personally take the symptoms of this stranger onto myself.

The greatest measurement of where we are Christ cannot be discovered in unprecedented signs and wonders, large crowds attending Miracle Rallies, radio and television programs, international notoriety, the popularity of a person's outreach, or the number of books published. To the contrary, love and compassion, a willingness to obey Heaven, lay down one's life, if necessary, swiftly locate a Believer's place in the Father.

Oh Lord, never let this Servant lose any of that! The very Power to raise the dead and empty medical centers remains inherent in such a posture. Faith does, indeed, work by love, and love never fails. Consequently, the Force (Love) that sustains and maintains our universe is the most accurate descriptor of Dad and us! Until that fact is fully understood, we will be operating far beneath the Covenant's rights and privileges, in both life and godliness, falling short of destiny's purpose.

The Church is here to take away pain and not promote more of it! Understand that. We're in the same Army. Soldiers should never wound or kill their own. When one hurts, others must rush to the rescue. Freedom is what fighting is all about. For us, it's a fight of faith, commitment and resistance...from thoughts to acts, remaining true to both vision and call.

Nothing on the face of this earth will gain my attention any quicker than hearing the cries...spiritually, emotionally or physically, of a suffering soul. There's just a gut-wrenching urgency, associated with a tear, which demands response. You don't even have to know the person. That's exactly how the Father feels about all people. Nothing less than total deliverance will do, as far as God's concerned. Consequently, He decided to send His only Begotten Son, Heaven's Remedy, into a septic system of disease and sin.

Think about the Lord's decision-making process. Do you really believe it was easy for the Creator to part with His Child, fully knowing what would befall the Christ? For a brief moment, God had to count the cost, consider the price tag and associated emotional traumatization, the Master's very absence from Papa. Never believe for a moment that the move was easy on the Author of Life.

Most of us can identify with missing another, or even losing a loved one in a tragedy. God isn't beyond any of those feelings! However, overriding His own indescribable pain was this fact. Perfect Blood was required to settle the sin issue, once and for all, reverse the curse, empower the Church for those "greater works than these." Nothing else would suffice! In summary, back then, you and I were more important to the Father than His keeping the very Son of Glory and not putting Himself through the unimaginable torment of watching Heaven's Jewel being tortured beyond human imagination or recognition.

A Love Letter From Heaven!

While enjoying a brisk walk, moments ago, the Spirit of the Lord spoke ever so clearly to me about the Creator's creation. In essence, this is what He had to say. "Paul, all experienced by the senses began as a thought in the Father's Mind. Then, I spoke forth that revelation, not unlike the Believer must do. Since no word from Me is void of the Power necessary to materialize its intent, atoms and molecules formed in obedience to the Life Force emanating from My lips. Look around! Everything possesses its own beauty and is taken care of, upheld, by Heaven's Glory. Do plants, planets, water, air, soil, and all that is, have to worry and toil? No! Within the Throne Room's plan lies an inherent Unction, full provision for destiny's realization and fruition. Is not man, made in the very likeness and image of the Author and Finisher of faith, any less important than that which was fashioned for his existence and enjoyment? Do I fail to concern Myself over taking care of Heaven's Babies in a fashion that truly reflects Royalty, the fact that you have become a Joint-Heir with Christ? Isn't it interesting? Some get so upset when the Lover of Souls is deemed a good God. Well, even on your best day of loving, caring and giving, a candle cannot be held to the intensity of Dad's desire to bless the socks off humanity...yes, even going beyond healing and provision! God's Army cannot be sent into a region that hasn't been fully prepared for absolute victory. The Soldier's weaponry includes full dispensing of the Glory, meeting all needs according to My riches within that Flaming Fire... bowels of compassion. No man goes to war at his own expense. The Church has been called to clean up and take the enemy's spoils in an unprecedented manner. Never forget this eternal fact. I Am living for you! Nothing is too good for the Elect. The miraculous will deliver Heaven's finishing touches, as the Bride increasingly shines. After all, I have always glowed quite radiantly! Like Father, like Son!"
