Summary:
It's out of our love for our Father that we draw nigh to Him. Our whole drive, everything we do is based on our relationship to our Father. If I can love the Lord, I can begin to walk in the second part of the great commandment to love my neighbor as myself. This true love is the foundational stone we stand on.
Show Notes:
There is a foundation of love being created in the hearts of God's people.
This love is the new divine order that is coming forth for this present day.
We must forget the things of the past in order to enter into this new thing He is bringing in the Kingdom.
I'm going forward, I'm trusting you, Father, to lead me today. I think He wants me to walk with faith in Him and trust in Him.
Quotes:
...We're moving into the Father's order. We're moving into an order of love thy neighbor as thyself...
The foundation of the entire kingdom of God is the love of the Father.
God's bringing an order to that new creation because you're willing to walk off the ark and let Him lead you.
we've always wanted to have a purity of completeness, a closeness in our relationship to our Father.
There's a shift going on from the church to the kingdom. Instead of being a congregation that needs and moves by guidelines and rules, you'll become a family.
Scriptural References:
Luke 10:27 He answered, “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind; and love your neighbor as yourself.”
I Corinthians 13:1-3 If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have 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 do not have love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast but do not have love, I gain nothing.
I Corinthians 13: 8-13 Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. For we know in part and we prophesy in part, but when completeness comes, what is in part disappears. When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me. For now, we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.And now these three remain faith, hope, and love. But the greatest of these is love.
Isaiah 43: 18-19 “Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. 19 See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?
II Corinthians 3:6 He has made us competent as ministers of a new covenant – not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.
Galatians 5:16 So I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh.
Proverbs 3:5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding.
Take Away:
The foundational stone we stand on in this new day of His kingdom is this deep love for the Father and for one another. This is the new divine order that He is creating in the hearts of His people.
