FATHER wants us to draw near to Him and walk in the Fear of THE LORD where we can walk in full intimacy as mature Sons!
Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Colossians chapter 1:
15 Jesus is the Divine Portrait, the True Likeness of the invisible God, and the firstborn Heir of all creation.
16 For in Him was created the universe of things, both in the Heavenly realm and on the earth, all that is seen and all that is unseen. Every seat of power, realm of government, principality, and authority—it all exists through Him and for His purpose!
17 He existed before anything was made, and now everything finds completion in Him.
18 He is the Head of His Body, which is the church. And since He is the Beginning and the Firstborn Heir in resurrection, He is the most Exalted One, holding first place in everything.
19 For God is satisfied to have all His Fullness dwelling in Christ.
20 And by the Blood of his cross, everything in Heaven and earth is brought back to Himself—back to its original intent, restored to innocence again!
FATHER desires intimate fellowship with you and me as HIS Sons and Daughters. HE is constantly drawing us nearer to HIM by His Holy Spirit if we will only submit to HIS desire for complete and unrestricted fellowship. HE is pursuing always pursuing us even when we don’t realize it.
Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Galatians chapter 4:
4 But when the fullness of the time had come, God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born under the law,
5 to redeem those who were under the law, that we might receive the adoption as Sons.
6 And because you are Sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of His Son into your hearts, crying out, “Abba, Father!”
7 Therefore you are no longer a slave but a Son, and if a Son, then an Heir of God through Christ.
Can you fathom what the CREATOR of Heaven, earth, and you, has done to restore the opportunity for full and complete fellowship with HIM?
James wrote by The Holy Spirit in chapter 4 of His letter to us:
7 Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.
8 Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded.
Because FATHER gave us free choice to decide our path and pursuit, HE will not force us to draw near to HIM though HE desires every one of HIS Children to fellowship with HIM. When we move toward HIM, HE knows our intent and provides the means and opportunity to ultimately enter into HIS Presence.
The Beloved Disciple wrote to us by The Holy Spirit in 1st John chapter 4:
17 By living in God, Love has been brought to Its full expression in us so that we may fearlessly face the day of judgment, because all that Jesus now is, so are we in this world.
18 Love never brings fear, for fear is always related to punishment. But Love’s perfection drives the fear of punishment far from our hearts. Whoever walks constantly afraid of punishment has not reached Love’s perfection.
19 Our Love for others is our grateful response to the Love God first demonstrated to us.
FATHER sent Jesus to us so that we would have a clear path to dwell in HIS Presence. Let us all respond and move into that intimacy HE desires as Our Heavenly FATHER!
