Being shaped into unconditional love
I have just been up just laying before The Lord, listening to His voice, as He commands me to stand still and wait on His instructions and directions.
As different events unfold, I begin to think on how the love of God conditions us to reach beyond our human comprehension, and seek out ways to show the love of God to all mankind, but especially to those that the enemy manipulates to become our enemy.
God will set you up to walk in love toward your enemies. He places within your reach the opportunity to purify your heart from any toxic emotions by allowing you to interact with those that are bitter and hateful toward you.
Often we reject these moments but these are moments of uncomfortable treasures. It’s in those moments of interaction and communication that you find out the true meaning of living and walking in unconditional love. When you can know that someone wants to destroy you and is jealous of you and wants to see you down and yet you can help them reach out for them and do everything in your power to uplift them without any animosity or anger or ill feelings toward them then you have been purged and purified in your spirit and soul and can now declare that you love them beyond the human restrictions of love.
God allows you to be up close and personal with your most challenging enemies, to teach you the concept of agape love. We tend in our human nature to shy away or no longer communicate with those that oppose and fight us but when the true love of God resides in your heart you have the ability to accept the ill treatment of those that hate you without thoughts of vengeance or resentment against them.
We say we want to be like Christ until He demands us to go beyond our emotional roadblocks and walls that we have set up to keep the uncomfortable intrusion of our enemies from forming a place of love within our hearts. We’d rather be unloving toward them, because the work to love them requires a great sacrifice from us and in our carnal emotions.
We say, why love those that don’t love us? But in our spiritual state, we say, I can’t help but love those who don’t love me, because I know the attack is there to continue to groom my spirit into unconditionally loving those that hate and despise me.
God’s methods of keeping us humble and walking in love may seem unorthodox and somewhat confusing and conflicting, but His ways will definitely get us into that place of walking in the character and attributes of His word and Spirit!
True love is never force it will automatically flow from the contents of your spirit and produce the fruits of a caring compassion burden for those that it entangles itself with.
What’s love got to do with it? Well, at the end of this life, when you stand before God in the day of accountable judgment, you will find out that love has everything to do with it!.
Be careful how you treat people for those same people may be the reason why you may hear depart from me you worker of iniquity, I never knew you, from The Lord.
Everything counts in the Kingdom of God so make sure your words and actions and lifestyle lines up with what counts.
You can’t curse what God blesses!
You can’t curse those whom God has blessed, but you can speak your own judgment.
Nothing worse than somebody thinking you to dumb and naive to recognize that they trying to speak a curse over your life and thinking you are going to miss what they doing and agreement with their witchcraft against you.
NOTE: I can look through mud and spot dry land, so I don’t have no problem seeing in the Spirit who you are and what you are trying to do. Some of you better stop playing with God’s servants.
It’s time to be real because you not going against the person but you are fighting against God!
~ Apostle Barbara R. Thomas
