If you only knew my heart, My desire, My Hope
I want nothing else that for every man woman and Child to Love the scripture to care for the scripture to understand the scripture as I do but much more than I do, where the scripture Comes alive and the Father through the Holy Spirit Guides to to clarity and understanding, That when you would pray that you would a times be filled so much with the Holy Spirit to where when you press into Him He presses back into you and that its such a real experience for you that you fall to your fleshly knees and Cry out to God Lord >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Lord my God take your hand off me least I Die His presence is So great in your life the weight of the World feels like a feather. I wish I could convey my heart to you in a real fashion , there is not enough time to do so, I have so many thing to say so many messages to give and it feels that there will never be enough time for some of you will be here for a season some a short while others a little longer but we all must face the fact that each one of us will be called out of here one way or another. I love you all so very much I do I preach a little on the tougher side
spugeon said “a time will come when instead of shepherds feeding sheep the church will have clowns entertaining goats”
I believe the scripture to be the true infallable and inspired Words of God., Which through the inspiration of the Holy Ghost were given to men to pen the Word of God for us for our wisdom so that no man be without excuse, I believe the Word Of God to be sacred not something to laugh about I believe God to Be Holy not to make Light Of I believe That God Love you so very much not only did He create your for a purpose but God Himself took on Flesh to come to earth to be beatten to be made fun of to be chased to be rediculed to be rejected by His own family to hang on that Cross of Calvary to bear your sin upon Himself that there was no other way to the Father but through Him, thtough His sacrifice that the human heart is so deceptive so wicked so depraved that the only way to save us was for God to crush His only Son the only one in all of History that was innocent for your sin for my Sin for the sins of the World and God loving you so much that it was worth it to Him It was it was worth it to Him to scarifice His Son For you, Is 53 says it pleased the father to Crush Him , It pleased Him not because God loves to crush no my dear Child of God it please Him because He loved you that much, This is a love that one cannot fully comprehend its such a love that the new testament writers had to come up with a new form of love a new word for this deep love Agape the devine Love this is the love He has for you for by His wounds are we healded, by his sacrifice are we redeemed
John 15:13 NKJV
Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends.
This is the Love that He has for us this is the man the one the Son of God the God himself manifested in flesh His love so great that he laied it down for you! This is the Agape Love the great Love the Devine love the love so unmeasuable so deep that it took everything for you.
Jesus knowing what it would take says to us Why do you call me Lord but not do as I say?
He says If you love me keep my commandments
So what are the commandments Jesus has given the Church?
To love God with all of your heart mind and soul
Matthew 22:37 NKJV
Jesus said to him, “ ‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’
Matthew 22:38 NKJV
This is the first and great commandment.
Matthew 22:39 NKJV
And the second is like it: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’
Matthew 22:40 NKJV
On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets.”
And the Third Jesus Gives after His Resurrection
Matthew 28:16–19 NKJV
Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, to the mountain which Jesus had appointed for them. When they saw Him, they worshiped Him; but some doubted. And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,
1. So we must love our God with everything within us our hearts above all other thing in our emotions in our priorities our heart must want what He wants long for Him
But how can we know what he wants well that is where loving him with all of your mind comes in we must study to show thyself approved unto God
He has given us His word to learn what it is for us to know and love
To love him with all of our soul , is with every bit of stregth you have dueturounomy says “might” in all thing Do for the Glory of Christ . We are to be His workman for this was why we were created
Ephesians 2:8–10 NKJV
For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast. For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.
With all of your strength we should serve the Lord
2. Love your neighbor as your self
We should be loving for all people even our enemies praying for them helping them when they are in times of need serving one another and encouraging aswell as exhorting to one another for love and truth
Which leads to the final commandment given
3.To Go and make disciples
WE must love God to do as he has commanded with all of our heart mind and soul
we must love our neighbors enough to tell them about jesus even if they reject us
its more than inviting someone to church why i thank you if you are that is a important step, but he doesnt say go and invite them to church he says Go and make disciples
The life of a christian is so much more than living and hoping to go to heaven when we die and having God bless us untill then. Look I get it that is the main focus for allot but this was not the call from our Lord who loved you so much to pay the price in which He paid for you. No it was to keep His commandments
Look I know we get caught up on them and focused at times to much and you say to me its impossible so why try
1 John 5:3 NKJV
For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments. And His commandments are not burdensome.
They are not burdensome for us if we love him with all of our mind hearts and soul if we love our neighbors then to go an d make disciples comes naturally.
Its so much more than the gift of heaven while I cant wait and we should all long for that Glorious day we should groan with creation for restoration, God has given us a purpose He paid you price will you answer the Call When He calls? He is calling
