Summary:
Moving in the Spirit realm means nothing without His love moving through us. God has limited Himself out of His love for us to make us His channels of love. God gives us the gift of love. God is His Word and many times God imparts His love to us through the Word He speaks. Through this impartation of His nature in us, we find His nature being established and His love flowing through us. He is calling us to love.
Show Notes:
Without God's love moving through us, moving in the gifts means nothing.
God loves us and imparts His love to us.
We love others with the love God has imparts to us.
Love has to have an action. Love has to have an expression. It's the way we live.
He is the Word that He speaks and when we receive His Word we receive His love.
We spend time with the Lord because we love Him.
There is a place that His nature is established in us and then no matter how we feel, His love begins to flow through us.
While your in His presence, the impartation of His love just flows.
With Your heart Lord, you are establishing Your nature in us.
Quotes:
In the Spirit realm, and our function in it, and talking about it, it's just meaningless; if it's not being driven by a very practical down to earth, love of the Father in us.
God has limited Himself, out of His love for us, He wants to include us
without the ability God gives us to love, we can't truly love the way He's calling us to love.
...you cannot be in His presence without experiencing that love.
Just spending time with with Him. And however you want to do that worship, waiting on Him, because you want to be with Him. You, you want to be in His presence. I just don't think we ever leave that place.
We can determine, “I am going to love, and I am going to love my brother or sister with all Your heart Lord.”
I know that if God has established something of His nature in us, and we have it forever.
References:
I Corinthians 13:1
If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing.
I John 4:19
We love him, because he first loved us.
John 1:1
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
II Peter 1:3
for His divine power has granted to us everything pertaining to life and godliness, through the true knowledge of Him who called us by His own glory and excellence.
Matthew 27:45-50
From noon onward, darkness came over the whole land until three in the afternoon. 46 vAnd about three o’clock Jesus cried out in a loud voice, “Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani?”* which means, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?” 47 *Some of the bystanders who heard it said, “This one is calling for Elijah.” 48 wImmediately one of them ran to get a sponge; he soaked it in wine, and putting it on a reed, gave it to him to drink. 49 But the rest said, “Wait, let us see if Elijah comes to save him.” 50 *But Jesus cried out again in a loud voice, and gave up his spirit.
Take Away:
God creates us as His channels of love in the earth through an impatation of His love. As His divine nature is established in us, we find ourselves able to love one another with His love.
You truly are in a love relationship, and intimate love relationship with the Lord. Just spending time with Him, worship, waiting on Him, because you want to be with Him. You want to be in His presence, never to leave that place.
