You are
lavished with a heavenly love. Go after it. Be open to it. Seek the kingdom…first.
There’s no denying God’s great love and when you are open to it you will know
His heart.
His great
love is evidenced all around. Go to the place of supreme happiness where this
love becomes real to you, empyreal…heavenly. This worship-filled kind of love
is blissful and cannot be rejected. Your healing is all wrapped up in it as a
garment of praise.
But God…Just
imagine for a moment, “But rather, you have come to ....” Look around…“the
place of countless multitudes of angels in festal (joyous, merry, jubilant) gathering.”
(Hebrews 12:22 AMP)
What does
this speak to you? Some years ago I looked around coming through a time of
illuminated prayer, though in a setting that was in a small space with many
people with what felt like there was less the freedom in moving about in
matters of the Spirit. I looked up and through the wall (figuratively) though
supernaturally to see a host of angels aligning the pews of the church. Very
ordered, very pure, white, tiny, child-like, prepared, on guard even. The place was energized and lit up of God. Though the physical lights were off but full of God-kind of light and full of energy. There had been a cleansing taking place in
this place of prayer, a preparing for what we were praying for that all ears
were opened to hear the Word. These were perfect angels doing bidding and had
overtaken the Sanctuary as a product of this time of intercession. Everyone
didn’t see it. But it encouraged everyone. Never hold back encouragement,
edification, affirmations to others. The other offices, the other gifts will at
times for a scarce moment may not see the difference. It perhaps is not their gift.
Confirmation comes though. Perhaps to be thought through, though certainly
designed of God to work together for the edifying of the church in making love
your greatest aim…be eagerly pursuant of this love!
And… your
gift of edification is priceless. Like the scriptures said… “Get inventive (in
love and truth of course) about how you can love and encourage others.”
It is priceless. Never believe someone isn’t in need of love. That is a lie!
See to it that you hear what the Spirit of the Lord says through the one who is
speaking to you. This is one who admonishes you in great love. (Hebrews 12:25) Will you hear if
I tell you heavenly things? (John 3:12) This is a time-tested
and honored truth. "Those who have an ear
let Him hear" the scriptures say often.
In this abode
of worship the former things shall not be remembered or come to mind (Isaiah
65:17). We all read the words of the prayer ‘on earth as it is in heaven’ (Matthew 6:10). Leaders lead into a place of
heaven. This is the chief goal…from salvation to worship-filled lives to
sanctification.
For this is
God’s heart for the church and will be the trajectory stream purposed of the
Spirit for “Glory To His Name” church and shall be build upon this principle foundationally and of great joy. It is this that will uphold the church in these days. I am more
than certained, authorized of heaven to share with you that this is what God desires for all the church. The
anointing is that which breaks the yoke. And this great joy is a yoke breaker!
When you
worship in this atmospheric kind of fluid love, gone are the agonies of
remembrance of pains. If these are there…go deeper. There is something greater at work.
(Verse 18) Be glad and rejoice in what is created. Thankfulness that extends from what was not known to what is known. This is not merely an atmosphere. This is a created life, a purposed way to move and breathe and have being. Gratitude. You were brought forth from Him and for Him for life and not death. The tears found here are surely tears of great joy (Verse 19). Sorrow and weeping are no longer in this place of the Spirit. This is a place of utter joyous love, a bombardment of unity in the Spirit. In this place of worship there is no labor in vain, nor bringing forth children for trouble as they are descendants of the blessed of the Lord and their offspring with them (verse 23).

Isaiah 35
says in the last few verses (Message) says… “They’ll sing as they make their way home to Zion,
unfading halos of joy encircling their heads, Welcome home gifts of joy and
gladness as all sorrows and sighs scurry into the night.” This is light. This is love.
Going toward
to this place of heaven… “So, let’s do it- full of belief, confident that we’re presentable
inside and out. Let’s keep a firm grip on the promises that keep us going. He
always keeps His word. Let’s see how inventive we can be in (being attentive,
stimulating, loving others) encouraging love and helping out, not
avoiding worshiping together as some do but spurring each other on, especially
as we see the big Day approaching”. (Hebrews 10:22-25)…worship like
it is the Big Day…because it is…It’s the day to Worship!
How will you
be found in this place? Revelation 21: 3-5 tells of Him dwelling with men and
being God within, no more sorrowing as all things are created new, then says to
write it all down as dependable and accurate. And goes on to say that God gives
freely to the thirsty.
This is
heavenly lavished-kind of love!
