Heavenly Father, you are Holy. Just as there is no sin in or around you, you cannot sin against me. You knew I would be unable to stand before you and in Grace upon Grace already given you created The Way. You sent your Word and with Him your Kingdom. And through the death and resurrection of the Christ, Jesus, I have been forgiven and cleansed. I can stand before you Holy and Blameless, I have my bread daily and hunger no more. As he is the vine and I am the branch, He is in You and You are in Him, He is in Me and I in Him, your Kingdom goes everywhere I do! Your will is fulfilled, the first thing you said after creating us, Be Fruitful and multiply! Thank you for the Authority passed from You to your Son. Thank you, Jesus, for your promise to not loose even 1 and the gift of the Holy Spirit and power from on high delivering me from evil. While temptations may arise, Praise God when I am weak you are strong, and The Kingdom of God stands having placed your seal on me and filled my heart with your Holy Spirit! To you Father, be the Glory, Multiplied for ever and ever. Amen.
It is my earnest desire to share that which I have freely received! Truth. Not so I can beat someone else over the head with Him. But rather through my relationship with Him I can clearly see my own shortcomings that have caused others and myself to suffer too much. Its only after this relationship had begun that I even thought of “how important I was” to myself, all while thinking I was not selfish, and the destruction that comes with that. Mans biggest enemy has always been himself. Of course, we know of satan and his influences however man is easily, almost welcomely, deceived when we think there’s something in it for me. It is amazing how much we underestimate our “self-fulfillment” and walk through life having never seen either the destruction or the blessing we create. Walk with me through some memories and the reflection of Truth, Christ, and trusting in him has afforded me. I invite you to take breaks, reflect on some similar situations in your life and see if you too can find peace.
The Word, without Him, nothing was made that has been made. Let’s explore this for a minute. Most everyone hears this and thinks of the Earth, Sun, Moon, Stars, Plants, Animals, You, and Me. He created ALL things. An angel is a thing. Satan and all his cohorts are fallen angels. They wanted to be like God. What did God do? He sent his Son, the Perfect sacrifice so that through him you and I are heirs to the Kingdom of God. To be an heir is to be equal, the Son is in the Father, and the Father is in the Son, The Son is in me, and I am in Him! Satan and his cohorts are jealous and would do all they can to keep me from the original commandment of “Be Fruitful and Multiply”. “Fruitful” has nothing to do with mammon. “Fruitful” is having a relationship with our Father in Heaven. Adam waited in the garden and walked with God. Walking and talking with God, having relationship with him. Through the Christ, Jesus, we don’t have to wait in the garden. He lives within us, and we take him everywhere we go, never being separated, able to come holy and blameless and talk with our Father in Heaven anytime anywhere! The greatest Miracle ever, in my humble but deadly accurate opinion. The multiplying part is to freely give what we have freely received! There is a rub in that last part which I hope, via the Holy Spirit, to shed light on and help us all find more freedom to fulfill the multiplying. The rub being self-defeating behaviors we never see ourselves because we rarely see ourselves in Truth. It is so much easier being ignorant, judgmental while thinking we are not, offended when we don’t receive recognition for something, wasting time being anxious and offended, just keeping it real, the list goes on and the whole time we think its just life, this is who I am, etc. Who you and I are, is heirs in the Kingdom of God! We have been given every tool necessary to fulfill his original command.
Every single one of us experiences a hole in our lives. We constantly, in our flesh, try and fill it with everything from drugs, alcohol and lust to a wife and family never understanding the hole cannot be filled by anything other than Christ. You think “a wife and family?”. I ask, how can you love when you have yet to experience it? Make no mistake, when you feel the Love of Christ wash over you there is no comparison and as you walk with him in Truth, he will show you all you need to Love others as he has Loved you! Now you are “fruitful”, go and “Multiply”!
