FATHER has revealed to us HIS expectation of our walk as mature Sons and Daughters when we have drawn near to Him and now walk in the Fear of THE LORD!
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! As we do, we will do those greater works Jesus referred to when He was nearing the end of His mission on earth.
Isaiah described Jesus and us as mature Sons and Daughter when he recorded by THE SPIRIT in chapter 11:
1 There shall come forth a Rod from the stem of Jesse, And a Branch shall grow out of his roots.
2 The Spirit of the LORD shall rest upon Him, The Spirit of Wisdom and understanding, The Spirit of counsel and might, The Spirit of knowledge and of the Fear of the LORD.
3 His delight is in the fear of the LORD, And He shall not judge by the sight of His eyes, Nor decide by the hearing of His ears; NKJV
In other Words:
2 the Spirit of Yahweh will rest upon Him, the Spirit of Extraordinary Wisdom, the Spirit of Perfect Understanding the Spirit of Wise Strategy, the Spirit of Mighty Power, the Spirit of Revelation, and the Spirit of the Fear of Yahweh.
3 He will find his delight in living by the Spirit of the Fear of the Lord. He will neither judge by appearances nor make his decisions based on rumors. TPT
Make no mistake, walking in Love and The Fear of THE LORD is vital to our fulfilling the Divine Intent of FATHER. HE would not have stated such expectations if it were not possible to live accordingly. Don’t restrict yourself in your mind to what FATHER’S Perfect Will is in your life. Allow your spirit to guide you into all Truth.
Peter wrote by The Holy Spirit in his 1st Epistle, chapter 4:
7 Since we are approaching the end of all things, be intentional, purposeful, and self-controlled so that you can be given to prayer.
8 Above all, constantly echo God’s intense Love for one another, for Love will be a canopy over a multitude of sins.
9 Be compassionate to foreigners without complaining.
10 Every believer has received grace gifts, so use them to serve one another as faithful stewards of the many-colored tapestry of God’s grace.
11 For example, if you have a speaking gift, speak as though God were speaking HIS Words through you. If you have the gift of serving, do it passionately with the strength God gives you, so that in everything God alone will be glorified through Jesus Christ. For to Him belong the power and the glory forever throughout all ages! Amen.
As we approach the end of all things, let us complete the race with full commitment to HIM WHO called us to display and express HIS Glory in all areas of our lives!
