Rule Book or Love Letter?
Many people try to use My word as a rule book or a magic formula to acquire everything from a healing to a fortune, but I AM not in it.
These people are very gullible and will give large sums of money to religious scam artists, for a quick return in My name.
My word to you, whether written or spoken, (Logos or Rhema) is not a tool to get what you want like an ATM machine and avoid intimacy with Me. It is a clear love letter from My kingdom to those who have spiritual ears on earth.
Those who have ears have become intimate with Me reading between the lines and hearing My heart. Their greatest desire is to hear My voice and walk in My foot steps. Out of our love relationship they have been able to use My love letter as a weapon against all enemy forces.
When they expose My love for them by repeating the love words I have filled their hearts with, the enemy flees because he knows that no weapon form against them will succeed, (Hebrews 4:12).
However, many who are not interested in a love relationship with Me, but want the benefits, have tried to mimic those that do. They repeat scriptures over and over, they memorize and even frame verses.
Some place a bible on their desk or mantle without any idea or interest of what it says. Others wear crosses and other type of religious jewelry many without any knowledge of what they represent, (Matthew 15:8).
Please note, I AM not saying all those who have Bibles displayed or wear crosses are not in love with Me. I AM speaking of those wanting a get healed quick or get rich quick scheme.
The truth is all these efforts are in vain without a relationship. All of My communication with man is not to scare them or threaten them but to convey My love that they might be transformed and live eternally with Me.
Rules without being based in love never work. If My word is always received as a love letter then there will never be a need for rules or formulas, (Matthew 22:37-40).
You can forget the do’s and don’ts if you fall in love with Me and read and listen to My kingdom love language based in the greatest expression of love possible. When you realize I can do no more than lay down My life for you, this is where you should see and hear every word dripping with My love blood that I shed to have a relationship with you! (John 15:13).
