Hostility.....Hate....Let It Not Be Named Among You.....

Do you think that it's by chance that the first miracle that Jesus performed was at a wedding.....and He said that in the end.....He is coming back for His bride?    Does that not tell you how important marriage and unity is to God.   How important love is to God.   For He said it of Himself......He is love.   Yet we take it lightly.   Instead of walking in love (who He is) .... we walk in hostility and hatred.   

Hostility is an attitude.   An attitude of unfriendliness.   It is based on opposition or resistance.   Hatred is based on your emotions and dislike.    What will it take for us to be as God in our love walk?   What will it take for us to truly lay down ourselves.   Our attitudes and our emotions and truly walk in the love of God.   

We first have to understand that none of us are the same.   God made us all unique and we have to learn to respect the differences in people.   We have to understand that when two things are different that they will act and react in different ways.    It is only when we walk in Christ that we should be walking and talking the same.   But not everyone is there yet.   In Christ....your walk should be one of love, peace, and harmony.   Because that is who He is.   He is the unified body.   

So as you go about your day today.....Go In Love.....

In other words.....Go In God.    

Don't allow opposition or differences cause  you to reflect something that you are not.   Don't allow your representation to dishonor who God is.    What we tend to do is judge people instead of looking past what needs to be changed and praying that they get to the place of change.   Sometimes the place of change isn't easy.....   It may take more for someone else to get there.   But we have to realize that we are intercessors.   Those set in place to go before God on the behalf of others.   Those who are commissioned to lay hands on the sick..... Those set in place to minister life. 

Understand today that hostility and hatred is not a part of ministering life.    It only causes things (and people) to die.   To die to the things of God.   

Understand your place today.   Understand why you were sent.   Do what God has called you to do.   For today is the day of salvation.   Salvation is who God is.    Minister who God is to someone else today.   Minister life.    Minister love.

Lynn, I don't want to sound like a broken record, but God is using you in such a powerful way to minister to HIS people. Yesterday was about resting in the Lord. I had no idea when I commented on your message that GOD was about to show up and show out in my life. Well, HE did!!!
He did what only HE CAN DO.

Today is about LOVE and FORGIVENESS. We have to walk in LOVE. If we don't get our LOVE WALK right, we may as well forget about receiving from GOD. Everything begins with LOVE. I am so thankful that I am finally getting my love walk together. I am not all the way there yet, but I am much better than I used to be. I strive to get a little closer to God each day and think WWJD when I am tempted to open my big mouth!!!

Very Real, I especially like the revelation on weddings, unity and the body of Christ. I never thought of it that way.

Amen.....God is so GOOD and so faithful. I thank Him for showing up for you. He sees your life and your faithfulness. You are so right....we have to get this LOVE walk right. We have to reflect Him....so that He can shine through us.

I thank Him for fresh revelation.

What Do You Do When You Are Not Sure What To Do?

In the midst of all the trials that come with life, what do you do when you don’t know what to do?   Do you quit?   Do you give in?   Do you...
