Jesus expressed FATHER’S singular vision of Love for the called out ones, known as the true church, to come into perfect unity with a foundation of Love. If this were not possible, FATHER would not have instructed Jesus to express such a prayer. Nothing is impossible for GOD to bring forth on this earth.
HIS Divine Intent is for HIS Kingdom to be “imaged” on the earth as it is in Heaven for HE made man in HIS image and placed him here to rule and reign. If we embrace and walk in this Truth then we are partakers of HIS Divine Nature.
Jesus prayed with this complete expectation and manifestation in mind in John chapter 17:
20 “And I ask not only for these disciples,
but also for all those who will one day
believe in Me through their message.
21 I pray for them all to be joined together as one
even as you and I, Father, are joined together as One.
I pray for them to become One with Us
so that the world will recognize that You sent Me.
22 For the very glory You have given to Me I have given them
so that they will be joined together as one
and experience the same unity that We enjoy.
23 You live fully in Me and now I live fully in them
so that they will experience perfect unity,
and the world will be convinced that You have sent Me,
for they will see that You Love each one of them
with the same passionate Love that You have for Me.
When you and I walk in Agape Love, we are promoting FATHER’S singular vision for The Kingdom. We become an advertisement for HIS expressed Love as Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Ephesians chapter 1.
18 I pray that the light of God will illuminate the eyes of your imagination, flooding you with light, until you experience the full revelation of the hope of His calling—that is, the wealth of God’s glorious inheritances that He finds in us, His Holy ones!
19 I pray that you will continually experience the immeasurable greatness of God’s power made available to you through faith. Then your lives will be an advertisement of this immense power as it works through you! This is the mighty power 20 that was released when God raised Christ from the dead and exalted Him to the place of highest honor and supreme authority in the Heavenly realm! 21 And now He is exalted as first above every ruler, authority, government, and realm of power in existence! He is gloriously enthroned over every name that is ever praised, not only in this age, but in the age that is coming!
Jesus prayed that you and I are meant to be expressed images of His Love on this earth and sit with Him in Heavenly places. Each of us has been given all the resources required to fulfill our callings of HIS expressed Love on earth. Take hold of this Truth today!
The Beloved Disciple wrote by The Holy Spirit in 1st John chapter 4:
7 Those who are Loved by God, let His Love continually pour from you to one another, because God is Love. Everyone who Loves is fathered by God and experiences an intimate knowledge of Him. 8 The one who doesn’t Love has yet to know God, for God is Love. 9 The light of God’s Love shined within us when He sent His matchless Son into the world so that we might live through Him. 10 This is Love: He Loved us long before we Loved Him. It was His Love, not ours. He proved it by sending His Son to be the pleasing sacrificial offering to take away our sins.
11 Delightfully Loved ones, if HE Loved us with such tremendous Love, then “Loving one another” should be our way of life! 12 No one has ever gazed upon the fullness of God’s splendor. But if we Love one another, God makes His permanent home in us, and we make our permanent home IN HIM, and His Love is brought to Its full expression in us. 13 And He has given us His Spirit within us so that we can have the assurance that He lives in us and that we live IN HIM.
14 Moreover, we have seen with our own eyes and can testify to the Truth that Father God has sent HIS Son to be the Savior of the world. 15 Those who give thanks that Jesus is the Son of God live in God, and God lives in them. 16 We have come into an intimate experience with God’s Love, and we trust in the Love HE has for us.
As always, it’s all about Love!
