Nothing Shall Separate Us/You From the Love of God - PART 159

Be thou my vision. Paul, an apostle of Jesus the Christ expressed his vision. That is, he desired to know only Jesus the Christ and Him crucified. Great is that mystery, saith the scriptures. Why does God love us this way? Because nothing shall separate us from God's everlasting love that, at the end of the day, will never let us go. Think on these things!

Peter, an apostle of Jesus the Christ was so anointed with the oil of the Spirit of Jesus that when he was walking along the streets, his very shadow falling upon the sick quickened their physical bodies so that they were instantly healed. Now that is a real walk in clinic if we think of the healing in today's terms. No wonder Paul wanted to know more about Jesus and to stay focused on Jesus who has all power in heaven and on earth.

Indeed, the Word of God is so powerful in individual lives that the anointed Word of God wants to, but cannot. Why not? Simply because unbelief abounds. Still, Jesus wants to deliver you from your burdens. Your deliverance, and my deliverance have already been taken care of. However, someone hindered the truth of what Jesus really accomplished at Calvary, preventing us from obtaining our share in the Last Will of God in Christ!

The ultimate gift of salvation. Not because you or I have done anything deserving of deliverance because we did not. This is why He died at Calvary. We could not go to where He was, so instead He came to us. But not just dropping in for a visit. Oh no. Rather, He purposely appeared to straighten out our backward thinking as to who God is, so God who is Spirit appeared in form as one of us. His intent was to bring the light of God into a misled satanically deceived world. This world that has afflicted and caused men, women, boys and girls to endure unimaginable pain and suffering.

At the same time, we recall from the scriptures that Pilate washed his hands of the whole matter and blamed God! He did this knowing that God is good. Jesus, God Himself veiled in flesh demonstrated His willingness and His goodness upon earth whilst He walked among us as a Son! Jesus did not pass by on the other side of the road. And He still doesn't pass by on the other side of the road today. No. When one responds to God’s love, and becomes acquainted with the author of all living things, then there is no hesitation on God’s part to withhold any good thing from anyone.

Those living in this present God rejecting system of error has an opportunity to put God to the test. God said, Try me and see. That willingness takes faith. Still, while doubters and pessimists are everywhere, remember that God not only made you but that God loves you too. God can heal you. God can make you prosper. In fact, God can do more than you or I can possibly think. Nothing is impossible with God.

Starting today, call on the name of the Lord! Yes, the same God who laid down His life for us, as a man. When you stop to think about it, we really are not worth very much. But God had a purpose for us! So, recognize God's love and close the door on unbelief. Instead, open the door to faith in God, ie. To the God who loved you and gave Himself for you. For Jesus loves you more than His own life! Grasp the reality of who you are and how precious you are in God’s eyes, and because He is God, let Him come and heal you and deliver you.

Remember too that the gift of salvation is not about religion. We are talking about you beginning a personal relationship with your Creator, Saviour and forever friend! Trust that you can go directly to Him. Just talk to Him as a friend. Jesus knows all about you. Now it is your turn to respond to Jesus. ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE! Love is all you need -- God’s love is a true love. Stand in the offering plate!
