PUSHING LOVE TO YOUR LIMIT
Some people mock Me, but I just keep on loving, because love is patient.
Some people curse Me, I just keep on loving, because love is kind. Some people
abuse My goodness, but I just keep on loving them, because love seeks not her
own. Some people insult Me, by ignoring what I say, as if I am a nobody, and I
just keep on loving them anyway, because love is not easily provoked. Others
don't care what I say, and have no interest in Me and I keep on loving them,
because love endures all things. Please notice in the love chapter in My word,
(1Corinthians 13) I never mention mans interpretation of love, I never once said
love is a feeling! But there comes and end, because My love endures to the end,
not an end to My love, but to you, Because it is appointed unto men once to die,
and after that the judgment:" Hebrews 9:27
Refusing to embrace My love, when it is offered to you, is the ultimate in
foolishness, however playing with and tempting My love, while you are pretending
to walk in it, is downright dangerous! My love is everlasting but you are not!
Presuming upon My love can get you killed, Ananias, was a faithful church goer,
but allowed satan to fill his heart with greed and lie to and attempt to deceive
the Holy Spirit. He violated his promise and withdraw secretly part of money he
promised from the sale of his land, that was for the those in need." [5] Upon
hearing Peter's words, Ananias fell down and died. And great dread and terror
took possession of all who heard of it." Acts 5:3,5 AMP
Kingdom love, as written yesterday, is not a feeling but a commitment to
obedience, John 14:15 so if you think My love is based on feelings, you could
easily find yourself pushing My love, to your limits! Walking in love, in not
walking around with warm and fuzzy feelings about everyone, it's walking in
obedience, to My every command. Obedience is what gives you the power to receive
a slap in the face and then turn the other cheek! You don't feel happy about it,
and say, oh that felt good, do it again, you are simply obeying My command, to
not retaliate, but to demonstrate love for Me through obedience. In your
obedience I reward you with strength to endure with an inner joy that sustains
you in the affliction.
There is no limit to My love because it is not based on feeling, it is
expressed in actions toward obedience, and disobedience. This is why I am no
respecter of persons, I simply give favor to those that obey, and the
disobedient simply suffer the consequences of not having My favor! Remember you
are saved by grace through your faith, Ephesians 2:8 but faith without the works
of obedience is dead. "Even so faith, and grace, if they have not works, to back
them up, is dead, being alone." James 2:17 If you are wise you will no longer go
by feeling and push on in disobedience. I do not have warm and fuzzy feelings
that say, he's a nice boy even though he is disobedient. Bottom line: without
faith, demonstrated by obedience, it is impossible for you to be pleasing to
Me! Hebrews
11:6
