LOVE

Have you ever tried to love someone and failed miserably not once, not twice but time after time?  You think you have this love thing down to a science and then they do something more to absolutely provoke you to want them to disappear off the face of the earth.  Come on, Christians, every one of us have experienced this type of situation at one time or another in our lives.  It seems that person rubs our fur the wrong way.  If you have ever rubbed the fur of a cat the wrong way, you know that they do not like it one little bit.

What is the reason we fail at that love (Remember we are talking about God’s agape love, not human love, which is naturally doomed to failure.)?  I have seen the answer to our dilemma.  It is this.  Until we know how much God loves us individually, personally, we cannot love others with His love.  It is not a reality to us.  The Word of God tells us that we will love others as we love ourselves.  We have been going at this love walk from the wrong direction.

First, develop that love relationship with God by focusing on how totally and deeply and unconditionally God loves you personally.  Yes, you!  That is where we must start.  Out of that understanding will come our devoted love for God.  Then we love ourselves because we see that we are worth loving because God loves us.  We see ourselves as the apple of His eye.  Then, and only then, will we be able to love others as God wants us to do.  Our love for them comes out of our love relationship with Him.  It all begins with a personal revelation of His Love for us (you and me, particularly you).

My prayer for each of you today is that God Himself will give you a personal revealing of His total and complete love for you.  He sees you as perfect and worthy and of great value through the blood of Jesus Christ His Son and your Lord.  God’s divine love is the greatest power in the universe.  You have Him in you today.

THE ESTABLISHED HEART, THE BLESSING, PART 2

When our hearts are established in the goodness of God, we begin to understand and walk in stability, regardless of what our bodies say to us or what the doctor’s report says to us.  We have a higher report from One Who loves us.  His report says that He is good and kind and He has borne our sicknesses and diseases (Isaiah 53:4,5; Matthew 8:17; 1 Peter 2:24).

God wants to bless us.  He told Abram in Genesis 22:17 (also recorded in Hebrews 6:14) that in blessing He would bless him.  God meant that He had placed Abram in the middle of Himself, Who is The Blessing.  What does it mean to be blessed?  It means that God Himself has empowered you, given you His power to succeed, in spite of all that is thrown against you.  That is good news!  What if your healing is contested by the doctor’s report?  Does that change God’s will of healing in your body?  God says:  I have blessed you.  That means that healing is yours.  Don’t let go of it!

In Galatians 3:14 we are told that Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law that the blessing of Abraham might come on us.  What is God saying here to us?  He is saying that He has brought us out of the land of the curse with the purchase price of His Son’s blood, and now we are in the land of the Blessing, which includes divine healing and health.

The Apostle John, writing by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, said:  Beloved, I wish or pray above all things that you may prosper in every way and be in health (that your body may keep well), even as your soul keeps well and prospers.

First, notice you are God’s BELOVED.  Be loved!  You are accepted in the Beloved Jesus.  Is Jesus sick?  NO!  Is Jesus healthy?  YES!  You are in Him, when you accept Him as your Savior.  That includes accepting Him as your Healer.

The prayer here that John makes is that you prosper or succeed and be in health.  What we have to do is believe that prayer for ourselves.  We prosper or succeed and are in health.  Regardless of what it looks like, keep on believing you are successful and healthy.  Don’t back down.  That is where most of us miss it.  We back down when things get tough and look like they are not going to work.  Don’t back down or give up, faint or quit.

The final clue here in 3 John 2 to good health is a prosperous soul.  We know that our soul consists of our mind, will, and emotions. Those are the areas on which we must concentrate.  How do we keep our mind steadfastly believing we are healed when it doesn’t look good?  How do we keep our emotions under control when we want to scream:  doesn’t anybody see what is happening here?  How do we keep our will conformed to believing God’s will is healing when it looks like we are fading fast?  My answer always is and always will be:  Keep your eyes, keep your ears, keep your heart steadfastly in the Word of God 24/7; believe His love for you; accept His grace to bring you out.  Rely on the Holy Spirit totally to give you your moment-by-moment instructions.  Every case is an individual case because you are uniquely you and there is nobody like you.  God knows how to get through to you.

God wants to bless you with perfect health.

HONOR AND RESPECT

Do you feel like others do not value you or honor you or that they lightly esteem you?  Have you ever considered that they may not honor you because you do not value yourself.  Perhaps you do not consider that you have any worth.  The way you view yourself is the way others will treat you.  Let’s do a value check today as we consider the word “honor.”  How valuable are you?

When we honor someone or something, we hold them in high regard; we respect them; we consider them of great value and worth; we give them priority; we treat them with dignity and respect.

God spoke to Eli the priest in 1 Samuel 2:30 and He told Eli that those who honor God He will honor and those who despise God shall be lightly esteemed (valued, regarded or honored).  We see here that our first place of honor is God.  First, we must honor Him!

For those of us who are pressing toward the mark of intimacy with God and standing our ground in righteousness, we may say that we have no problem with honor.  I had the Lord do a check on me, and I had my spiritual eyes opened to many truths.  That which we honor, we give time to.  That which we honor we defer to.  We honor God by honoring others and ourselves in whom God dwells.  Honoring someone, including ourselves, means that we do not “put down” that person nor consider their weaknesses.  Instead, we choose to see the best in them, that which is valuable to God.

As we look at the scriptures, we have an actual commandment to honor our father and mother.  In the scriptures we are told to honor God, to honor the Son of God, to honor the old, to honor widows.  Wives, we are told to honor our husbands.  In 1 Peter 2:17 in the Amplified Bible we are admonished to “Show respect for all men [treat them honorably].  Love the brotherhood (the Christian fraternity of which Christ is the Head).  Reverence God.  Honor the emperor.”

For me, the capstone scripture is found in Revelation 5:12,13,14.  Worthy is the Lamb (Jesus) that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honor, and glory, and blessing.  And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, heard I saying, Blessing, and honor, and glory, and power, be unto Him that sits upon the throne, and unto the Lamb for ever and ever.  And the four living creatures said, Amen (so be it)!  And the 24 elders fell down and worshipped Him that lives for ever and ever.

Honor is a big deal to God and should be a big deal to us.  The world in which we live needs to be reminded of the importance of honor.  You and I can be those examples to others of what it means to consider people of value.  Treat yourself and everyone with respect, courtesy and honor.  People may not say a word, but they will notice that you are different in a good way.

We must give honor to receive honor.  Honor God!  Honor yourself!  Honor others!  The law of seed, time and harvest works here!
