Heaven's Language Of Love!

As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep." John 10:15

"Greater love hath no man than this, than a man lay down his life (His Life...the Father's through the Children) for his friends. Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you (walk in the Spirit)." John 15:13-14

"Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ: According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love...." Ephesians 1:3-4

So many of us are performance oriented, even when it comes to serving and impressing the Father. Why are we often bent on traditions and formulas, while all He desires is to simply express (demonstrate) His fondness for the Bride?

When it comes to love, and I like to think of that word as a verb, there are numerous languages, or ways of expressing that eternal entity. One might perform a task or send a gift. Certain individuals enjoy sharing sentiments through notes and cards. Most of us actually give what we want to personally get! That is not unlike Dad. As the Originator of all, He ongoingly ponders creative ways of blowing our socks off.

You know, the majority of Christians really do try to love. However, without experiencing Papa's, embracing a vertical orientation, we are shortchanging ourselves and others. In simple terms, one cannot give what he doesn't have. Even in relationships, the problem isn't really with the union, but the baggage that we bring into it. Once that vertical lines up with Him, the horizontal reflects Dad's Glory and automatically takes care of itself.

During a recent series of Miracle Services in Windsor, Ontario, the Lord clearly related..."Please, let Me love you this time. My heart yearns to do just that!" We were still. And He manifested numerous languages of unconditional affection...healings, the creative, signs, wonders and miracles. His Glory was so intense, it literally drained two-and-a-half 9 volt batteries from this writer's wireless microphone, within a very short period...one meeting. Consequently, our engineer was kept quite busy, running to the auditorium's front, installing new replacements into the little box attached to my side. Furthermore, a watch within feet of that unit was impacted...ceased functioning!

God's love is both effective and contagious. No matter where one of His yielded Kid's might travel, it's there, ever present to manifest, poised to be released in varied forms, touching the hearts of recipients, no matter where they might be. And I am talking about a tangible Power here, one that flows into atoms and fibers, healing, restoring, reconciling and changing hearts.

One of the points made during the conference involved getting caught up in the natural, rendering evil for evil, wasting time arguing and defending oneself against accusations. Satan uses people, just as God does...the former to curse, the latter in blessing. The enemy is the accuser of the Brethren. Charges are either totally or half correct in content. Others are completely false. Who am I to point out sin in another's Glory to Glory walk, when there are issues in my own life that can only be resolved by the Initiator and Power Agent of Change? Simply put, don't get caught up with flesh and blood. Salute no man along the way. And get used to the fact, there is no good thing in the flesh. You are the righteousness of the Father in Christ, because of His Blood. And He isn't finished with us yet. Becoming like Jesus is a process. Once more, refuse to waste your time and energy defending self. Daddy has promised in the Word to vindicate His Children!

Your reaction to negative remarks might be..."I am guilty of more than you know. But that is why Jesus came to earth. The great exchange has taken care of sin. And my trust is completely in the Master's finished work. What might this Servant do to better love and bless you?"

While taking a seat in an Ontario restaurant, I overheard several at another table talking about the "Gold." A conclusion was made that the group had been in one of the meetings. Moments later, they asked me to join them. During our conversation, a little Love Note (Gold flake) appeared on Jeremy, a member of the crusade's worship team. Subsequent to that, our waitress approached. You'll never guess what had formed on her lip! Daddy had attached a fairly large particle of Gold there, as well.

What can be concluded from all that? Without question, Papa's heart is with the people. And He yearns to manifest everywhere...on the street, in the marketplace, even in restaurants! After all, where can we go to escape the marvelous influence of the Precious Holy Spirit? Who would ever want to?

The Mailman is here with today's delivery. Those letters are addressed to you!

Let Me Love You First!

"Oh, how I savor your praises, those precious acts of yieldedness and obedience. The latter is greater, more pleasing, than any natural sacrifice, ultimately bearing much fruit and many rewards. Beloved, a timely message proceeds forth from the Heart of hearts. This is the day when Papa desires to vitally love you first. It's My turn to reverse captivity and bestow every purchased and perfect gift from Heaven's marvelous Mall of Plenitude. One might say, the Almighty has called His Bride to stillness, a place of intimately becoming acquainted with the Father of identity, empowerment, provision and, beyond all that, lavish giving. Be still and know that I am the Lord of Lords, even all flesh. There is nothing too difficult for Me! The Creator is predisposed to show favor...started by giving and will end the dispensation in like fashion. However, surrendering must embrace Dad's total will, the epitome of which is to bless those socks off with Glory and provision. Then, you are to comfort others with that same comfort. Please stop trying so strenuously to impress Papa and gain acceptance. That has already been realized through the Blood. I could not possibly love you more. Simply accept the finished work of Christ and let Father do what turns Him on. And that is to make you shine, literally and figuratively, with the ultimate testimony of tasting, assimilating and sharing the Good News. Nothing will be held back in this magnificent outpouring. In fact, if need be, I will empty Heaven's vaults to accomplish the job!"

My Glory!

"Signs and wonders, those awesome manifestations, are secondary to My Glory. You will soon reach a place where symptoms and circumstances will immediately be eradicated, via this new level of manifestation. Along with that, there will simultaneously be a catching up in the holiness of God's Presence, a location where the miraculous assumes second place to the ecstasy of this Parent loving His Little Ones. Contemplate the experience of suddenly being impacted by a revelation of who you are in Me, a conviction of change, the vastness of Father's commitment and affection, coupled with the fact that mistakes, sins, as well as circumstances of former days, no longer maintain control and influence over Our walk of intimacy...in fact, are trespassing against, and attempting to hinder, destiny. Mark this certain word of prophecy. There will be such a revelation of holiness and Unction in the land, that vast multitudes will fall on their faces...yes, even in the streets and marketplaces, before the Author and Finisher of faith. The miraculous will be common and plentiful, in strange locations...basically, where the sick and poor in spirit require a Physician. Maladies, oppression and other adverse situations must vanish in the Cloud of Visitation. This is that, Church! Prepare to walk, talk and act like Me. Most children in the natural world do that. Why should it be any different with Mine? Even during those infancy days of the New Birth, the Babies provide such wonderful delight, as I see them learning and growing in all pertaining to life and godliness, working the works, performing exploits in that Name above all others. Don't worry about stumbling. That is precisely why the Holy Spirit was sent...to lead, guide and sustain each Member in all truth. Never fear making a mistake, either. There again, the Standby will invariably encourage in all regions, even promoting midcourse corrections, when necessary. You need not miss the mark on a single score. Remember, walking in the Spirit involves a total sellout and quality decision to heed the Wind's call, a locale of absolute surrender, availability, pliability and willingness to set sail and venture into deep waters. Those former days have been stepping stones into the present and future, where destiny will translate into the unprecedented, unparalleled and unpredictable. During that season of promise, on occasion, you will not be aware of your own body, walking so potently in Christ and that other Realm, the things of earth, those beggarly elements, will grow strangely dim. As with the Saints of old, residency and visitation are to be enjoyed on both sides...Heaven and earth! Additionally, darkness, within and without, must flee...from symptoms to circumstances. The Family's function, effectiveness and success remain in the Hiding Place of Dad's Presence...that Glory!"
