LOVE HAD A PLAN, LOVE HAS A PLAN, LOVE IS THE PLAN

LOVE HAD A PLAN, LOVE HAS A PLAN, LOVE IS THE PLAN

If you are not convinced that I love you more than anything by now, you are spiritually blind. No one ever loved you more, because no one ever paid the price that I did to redeem you. Without Me there would be no earth and no you. 

In the beginning, you were created in My image, with a God nature, but when sin entered the human race, you destroyed your God nature and there was no possible way you would ever look like any of the Godhead. Love had a plan from before the beginning. The plan was, when you fail to maintain your God nature, we would start over again and recreate you spiritually. 

This meant that I would have to come to earth and take back what you gave away, and offer it to you again. We created you with freedom of choice and will never take it away. Now love has a plan to restore you to your original state if you so desire. The plan includes one of the Godhead, staying on earth with you and actually dwelling inside your body, to firmly re-establish your God nature. This will only be done with by a passionate longing on your part, to return to your original state.

Love's plan is to fully restore all things to you, by offering back to the human race what they threw away in their first generation. To be fully restored you do not get to pick and choose the parts of My nature you want and don't want. 

My nature is a giving nature, My nature is a faithful nature, My nature is sinless, kind, gentle, easy to be entreated, peaceable, without partiality, a nature that is always laying down His life for others to live. The only way you will be fully restored is to seek all of me, with your whole heart. Everything and I mean everything, on earth, must be second to this. 

Because of the intensity of devotion it takes to be fully restored, Love became the plan. Your original love was also destroyed by sin. Everything pure was destroyed including love. What earth calls love is lust and perversion in every way. Your love has self written all over it. Every act of human love has the hidden question, "what's in this for Me".

Even if it's a thank-you, you are expecting, it's not a hundred percent pure. When My love consumes you and becomes the single motivation for everything you think, say, and do, you will know that your God nature has been fully restored. From that point on, there is nothing impossible to you. In order to maintain your God nature you will have to abide in Me and I in you.

You must eat, drink and sleep, My word. You will carry My presence everywhere you go. People will be transformed when you enter the room. Some will despise you and others will love you at first sight. No matter what their position you will love them equally. I wish I could say that everyone I call, will pay the price to have their God nature restored, I have called many but only a few will be chosen.

You have nothing to do with My calling, but you have everything to do with My choosing. I have called you, now will you say, "I will pay the price, I want you more than anything on earth", and begin your passionate pursuit of Me? Because love is the plan.

1 John 4:7-21 (AMP)
Beloved, let us love one another, for love is (springs) from God; and he who loves his fellowmen is begotten (born) of God and is coming progressively to know and understand God to perceive and recognize and get a better and clearer knowledge of Him. [8] He who does not love has not become acquainted with God does not and never did know Him, for God is love. [9] In this the love of God was made manifest (displayed) where we are concerned: in that God sent His Son, the only begotten or unique Son, into the world so that we might live through Him. [10] In this is love: not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation (the atoning sacrifice) for our sins. [11] Beloved, if God loved us so very much, we also ought to love one another. [12] No man has at any time yet seen God. But if we love one another, God abides (lives and remains) in us and His love (that love which is essentially His) is brought to completion (to its full maturity, runs its full course, is perfected) in us! [13] By this we come to know (perceive, recognize, and understand) that we abide (live and remain) in Him and He in us: because He has given (imparted) to us of His Holy Spirit. [14] And besides we ourselves have seen (have deliberately and steadfastly contemplated) and bear witness that the Father has sent the Son as the Savior of the world. [15] Anyone who confesses (acknowledges, owns) that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides (lives, makes His home) in him and he abides, lives, makes his home in God. [16] And we know (understand, recognize, are conscious of, by observation and by experience) and believe (adhere to and put faith in and rely on) the love God cherishes for us. God is love, and he who dwells and continues in love dwells and continues in God, and God dwells and continues in him. [17] In this union and communion with Him love is brought to completion and attains perfection with us, that we may have confidence for the day of judgment with assurance and boldness to face Him, because as He is, so are we in this world. [18] There is no fear in love dread does not exist, but full-grown (complete, perfect) love turns fear out of doors and expels every trace of terror! For fear brings with it the thought of punishment, and so he who is afraid has not reached the full maturity of love is not yet grown into love''s complete perfection. [19] We love Him, because He first loved us. [20] If anyone says, I love God, and hates (detests, abominates) his brother in Christ, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother, whom he has seen, cannot love God, Whom he has not seen. [21] And this command (charge, order, injunction) we have from Him: that he who loves God shall love his brother believer also.

John 8:31 (AMP)
So Jesus said to those Jews who had believed in Him, If you abide in My word hold fast to My teachings and live in accordance with them, you are truly My disciples.

John 6:63-69 (AMP)
It is the Spirit Who gives life He is the Life-giver; the flesh conveys no benefit whatever there is no profit in it. The words (truths) that I have been speaking to you are spirit and life. [64] But still some of you fail to believe and trust and have faith. For Jesus knew from the first who did not believe and had no faith and who would betray Him and be false to Him. [65] And He said, This is why I told you that no one can come to Me unless it is granted him unless he is enabled to do so by the Father. [66] After this, many of His disciples drew back (returned to their old associations) and no longer accompanied Him. [67] Jesus said to the Twelve, Will you also go away? And do you too desire to leave Me? [68] Simon Peter answered, Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words (the message) of eternal life. [69] And we have learned to believe and trust, and more we have come to know surely that You are the Holy One of God, the Christ (the Anointed One), the Son of the living God.

Matthew 10:36-39 (AMP)
And a man''s foes will be they of his own household. [37] He who loves and takes more pleasure in father or mother more than in Me is not worthy of Me; and he who loves and takes more pleasure in son or daughter more than in Me is not worthy of Me; [38] And he who does not take up his cross and follow Me cleave steadfastly to Me, conforming wholly to My example in living and, if need be, in dying also is not worthy of Me. [39] Whoever finds his lower life will lose it the higher life, and whoever loses his lower life on My account will find it the higher life.

Mark 12:30-31 (AMP)
And you shall love the Lord your God out of and with your whole heart and out of and with all your soul (your life) and out of and with all your mind (with your faculty of thought and your moral understanding) and out of and with all your strength. This is the first and principal commandment. [31] The second is like it and is this, You shall love your neighbor as yourself. There is no other commandment greater than these.

1 Corinthians 13:1-13 (AMP)
IF I can speak in the tongues of men and even of angels, but have not love (that reasoning, intentional, spiritual devotion such as is inspired by God''s love for and in us), I am only a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. [2] And if I have prophetic powers (the gift of interpreting the divine will and purpose), and understand all the secret truths and mysteries and possess all knowledge, and if I have sufficient faith so that I can remove mountains, but have not love (God''s love in me) I am nothing (a useless nobody). [3] Even if I dole out all that I have to the poor in providing food, and if I surrender my body to be burned or in order that I may glory, but have not love (God''s love in me), I gain nothing. [4] Love endures long and is patient and kind; love never is envious nor boils over with jealousy, is not boastful or vainglorious, does not display itself haughtily. [5] It is not conceited (arrogant and inflated with pride); it is not rude (unmannerly) and does not act unbecomingly. Love (God''s love in us) does not insist on its own rights or its own way, for it is not self-seeking; it is not touchy or fretful or resentful; it takes no account of the evil done to it it pays no attention to a suffered wrong. [6] It does not rejoice at injustice and unrighteousness, but rejoices when right and truth prevail. [7] Love bears up under anything and everything that comes, is ever ready to believe the best of every person, its hopes are fadeless under all circumstances, and it endures everything without weakening. [8] Love never fails never fades out or becomes obsolete or comes to an end. As for prophecy (the gift of interpreting the divine will and purpose), it will be fulfilled and pass away; as for tongues, they will be destroyed and cease; as for knowledge, it will pass away it will lose its value and be superseded by truth. [9] For our knowledge is fragmentary (incomplete and imperfect), and our prophecy (our teaching) is fragmentary (incomplete and imperfect). [10] But when the complete and perfect (total) comes, the incomplete and imperfect will vanish away (become antiquated, void, and superseded). [11] When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child; now that I have become a man, I am done with childish ways and have put them aside. [12] For now we are looking in a mirror that gives only a dim (blurred) reflection of reality as in a riddle or enigma, but then when perfection comes we shall see in reality and face to face! Now I know in part (imperfectly), but then I shall know and understand fully and clearly, even in the same manner as I have been fully and clearly known and understood by God. [13] And so faith, hope, love abide faith--conviction and belief respecting man''s relation to God and divine things; hope--joyful and confident expectation of eternal salvation; love--true affection for God and man, growing out of God''s love for and in us, these three; but the greatest of these is love.
