Word 7-17-08

Today during lunch I recieved a word. It blessed me and may bless others (which is why I am posting it). I pray that who it was for, will have ears to hear it and the freindship of God behind it. God Bless-Carm

Have joy for I have sanctioned you. Flow freely through this world as if it doesn't touch you, but rather you (I through you) touch it. Let my spirit be your only bond. The religous love their chains and wear them proudly for show. Freedom is your portion and affliction will be theirs. Our walk together is sweet to me. I desire to show you, to commune my heart to yours. Your heart hasnever been hidden from me, I know all it's content. But do you believe that? Do you trust that I have it in good plans? Expose your heart not so I can see it, but so you can see mine. Open your doors to see my will (all that my spirit can touch through you). Don't underestimate what seems small matters. The little things will do great glory to Me. I will bless you my daughter.

Amen Carmen.
This morning as I drove to work the Lord was opening my understanding all the more about love. Scriptures came: 1 John 4:8He that loves not knows not God; for God is love. & John 3:16For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

The understanding came in the form of eternity; comparing true committed love to lust of the flesh and unfaithfulness or earthly conditional love. Eternal love, God's love, is perfect, unaffected by emotions. The truth of love is what the Holy Spirit measures in a man (or woman). The truth of a love between a man and woman is hidden by the emotions causing one or the other to wavier in commitment and faithfulness due to their inability to control their own thoughts, tongue and lusts. God is able to control His thoughts, due to the fact He knows truth. That is the reason for His willingness to be long suffering. A Godly trait or a proof of the essence of who He, or what He truly is.

Psalm 86:15 But thou, O Lord, art a God full of compassion, and gracious, long suffering, and plenteous in mercy and truth.

It is also the reason why God does not consider charges against some people. Psalm 32:2 "Blessed is the man unto whom the LORD imputeth not iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no guile". He does so by knowing/judging truth. We on the other hand look on the words, facial expressions, body language and give into our own imaginations.

We do have access to truth, by the Holy Spirit. That is, if we choose to rule over our fleshly intuitions and have faith in what the Holy Spirit reveals to us. That, of a truth, is what is expected of us who will be in the presence of God. Controlling ourselves and taking every thought captive, and making it subject to truth by the Holy Spirit.

Of course some people are extremely contentious and will repeatedly deny truth, so meaningful understanding often cannot be achieved between men, men & women, ect... That is when;
1 Peter 3:9 "Not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: but contrariwise blessing; knowing that you are there unto called, that you should inherit a blessing," comes into play.

Heaven or eternity, in God's presence, is a place of peace and love not; Galatians 5:19Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, 20Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, 21Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God. Which is why, if we love truth, we die to ourselves; Matthew 16:24Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me. 25For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it.

It really is so simple; Matthew 22:37Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. But just that difficult.
