Summary:
God has more of Himself for us, if we just continue to reach into Him. This reaching in comes from a realization that God is working His love in you in order to reach the world. It is a dying out to self, which is not pleasant, but the result can be a moving like Christ in amazing ways.
Show Notes:
There is a term in the Scriptures, called “perfect love,” This quality of perfect love is being worked in us every day as we open up to His love for us.
Take time to examine: where have I moved in the earth as Christ moved in the earth, not in my own initiative, but by His initiative moving through me?
God has moved through people with tremendous flaws. Look at Moses—at one point he was a murderer. The Sons of Thunder wanted to call down fire from heaven on someone.
We need the love of God to increase in us so we can minister that love to a depth that it changes lives.
It's about what is in your spirit that God is creating in you.
Quotes:
It is a tremendous responsibility to minister His love in a maturity and humility that ministers life to people.
God looks at the big picture and when He says He loves the whole world, He looks for opportunities to move in a big way.
It's about us decreasing, and Him increasing. Stop looking at the flesh life and start looking at what is happening in the spirit life.
I am there to impart a Spirit to those whose hearts are open.
References:
“Blessed are the poor in spirit for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.” ( from the Beatitudes)
“It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing; the words I have spoken to you are spirit and life.”
and James, the son of Zebedee, and John the brother of James (to them He gave the name Boanerges, which means “sons of Thunder”)
He (Moses) looked this way and that and when he saw there was no one around, he struck down the Egyptian and hid him in the sand.
“A new command I give to you: love one another. As I loved you, so you must love one another. By this all men will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.
Takeaway:
God is loving us with a tremendous patience and understanding. It's the kind of love that we have to have for one another. This love can come as we appropriate more of His love from Him everyday.
