Let us fully accept and embrace The Will of GOD, and go forth in HIS Will!
Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Philippians chapter 3:
12 I admit that I haven’t yet acquired the absolute fullness that I’m pursuing, but I run with passion into his abundance so that I may reach the purpose for which Christ Jesus laid hold of me to make me His own.
13 I don’t depend on my own strength to accomplish this; however I do have one compelling focus: I forget all of the past as I fasten my heart to the future instead.
Paul had to let go of his past and we must do the same!
14 I run straight for the Divine invitation of reaching the Heavenly goal and gaining the victory-prize through the anointing of Jesus.
Our Heavenly goal given to us before we were formed in the womb is accomplished through the anointing of Jesus. “Not by might, not by power, but by My Spirit says The Lord of Hosts.” Zec 4:6
15 So let all who are fully mature have this same passion, and if anyone is not yet gripped by these desires, God will reveal it to them.
16 And let us all advance together to reach this victory-prize, following one path with one passion.
If you ask, GOD will reveal your Divine appointment and you will then be “apprehended of Christ Jesus”.
The word apprehended (Gr. katalambano) means: to seize; to grab hold of; to pull down; to tackle; to conquer; to master; to hold under one’s power.
Paul’s past of rage, anger, and hatred had consumed him. When he met Jesus, he had a Divine transaction. He gave up his past for the future, submitting to FATHER’S Divine plan for him. His past was erased, and his future was assured. The Spirit of GOD moved into him, and the evil moved out.
Jesus emphasized the complete forgiveness of sins in Luke chapter 7:
36 Then one of the Pharisees asked Jesus to eat with him. And He went to the Pharisee’s house, and sat down to eat.
37 And behold, a woman in the city who was a sinner, when she knew that Jesus sat at the table in the Pharisee’s house, brought an alabaster flask of fragrant oil,
38 and stood at His feet behind Him weeping; and she began to wash His feet with her tears, and wiped them with the hair of her head; and she kissed His feet and anointed them with the fragrant oil.
39 Now when the Pharisee who had invited Him saw this, he spoke to himself, saying, “This Man, if He were a prophet, would know who and what manner of woman this is who is touching Him, for she is a sinner.”
40 And Jesus answered and said to him, “Simon, I have something to say to you.” So he said, “Teacher, say it.”
41 “There was a certain creditor who had two debtors. One owed five hundred denarii, and the other fifty.
42 And when they had nothing with which to repay, he freely forgave them both. Tell Me, therefore, which of them will Love him more?”
43 Simon answered and said, “I suppose the one whom he forgave more.” And He said to him, “You have rightly judged.”
44 Then He turned to the woman and said to Simon, “Do you see this woman? I entered your house; you gave Me no water for My feet, but she has washed My feet with her tears and wiped them with the hair of her head.
45 You gave Me no kiss, but this woman has not ceased to kiss My feet since the time I came in.
46 You did not anoint My head with oil, but this woman has anointed My feet with fragrant oil.
47 Therefore I say to you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven, for she Loved much. But to whom little is forgiven, the same Loves little.”
48 Then He said to her, “Your sins are forgiven.”
This woman as well as Paul’s conversion is the essence of Agape Love. Jesus no longer looks at our past but instead provides us full and complete salvation. He restores us to FATHER and sends us The Holy Spirit to lead and guide us into all Truth.
