“Then one of them, which was a lawyer, asked Him a question, tempting Him, and saying,
“Master, which is the great commandment of the law?
Jesus said unto him, ‘Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.’
“This is the first and great commandment.
“And the second is like unto it, ‘Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.’”
(Matthew 22:36-39 KJV)
The Love Of God
Many years ago, I was seeking the Lord through prayer, and I asked Him to let me feel His love for all mankind. Or should I say now, for ‘us’kind, as the anarchists are trying to ram down our throats, since, by their definition, mankind no longer refers to the human race of men and women. At any rate, God did answer my prayer. He filled me with a love so strong, that I cried for hours afterward. That love even brought me to my neighbor’s door, a black woman’s door. The woman had wronged me greatly, but in a spirit of love and forgiveness, I felt God wanting me to reconcile with her. So I went to her door and spoke with her. By the time our conversation had ended, we were both hugging each other and crying. I was still crying, as I said, for hours afterward. We were still not friends, but at least we were at peace with one another. Because of the love of God.
The love of God is a powerful, wonderful emotion. It overwhelms a person, filling the person to bursting. There are no negative emotions when God’s love overtakes you. No anger, no hatred, no desire to kill or do others harm. If only the whole world knew what that feels like.
There are, of course, many different types of love. But the love of God overshadows them all. His love is all that is important, especially during these turbulent times. We are moving from the beginning of sorrows to a tribulation unlike anything the world has ever known. What is happening throughout America’s major cities today is but a tip of the iceberg. And because of these terrible events, hatred and rage is abounding as never before. An America that was once pretty much color blind is now reverting backwards. Satan is inspiring others to nurse their real or imagined wounds of a bygone era. This is tragic. Many are needlessly dying because God haters are giving free reign to their negative emotions and beliefs. As I have experienced in my daily life, many today are haters of all that is good. (2 Tim. 3:3)
Prove Him
People who worship Satan or are into the occult appear to have gone in that direction because they see that Satan freely gives his followers instant gratification. Those who love and worship the God of all creation know that sometimes we have to wait for things. When we pray, God will either tell us ‘yes’, ‘no’, or ‘maybe’. Sometimes He is quick to answer our prayers. Other times He makes us wait for an answer, perhaps for months or even years. He always has our best interests at heart, and there is a purpose for all that He does. So, as Christians, we must learn to wait, knowing that God is in control of the universe and has things well in hand. And, most importantly, He loves us beyond measure, in ways we can’t even begin to understand. And oftentimes, when our prayers are finally answered, we will discover that the answer may be even more glorious and wonderful than what we even asked Him for.
I once ordered a jacket through the mail (no personal computers or cell phones back then). The jacket I ordered was blue because that was all that was available. But I really wanted a black one. Not sure I specifically asked the Lord for a black one, but He knew my heart in the matter. And lo and behold, when my jacket arrived, it was – yes, you guessed it – black. I was overjoyed.
And that is how God operates, people, for those of you who do not know. When you walk with God, He gives you the desires of your heart.
I could give you endless examples of how God has blessed me, but I thought this one a good example.
If you doubt the existence of God, then prove Him. Pray and ask Him for whatever it is you want. Start with something small. But know that God is the God of the impossible, and no request is too small for Him to answer. But you must ask everything to be done in accordance with His will, not yours. You can make no demands on God. When you pray, humble yourself before you go into the throne room of Heaven. Then petition the Lord for whatever you need. It is best to confess your sins first and be certain your heart is pure before the Lord. Walk in His ways, loving others as you do, and thank God for everything He gives you and everything He does in your life. In this way, you may see miraculous happenings begin to occur in your life. A heart filled with rage, hatred, and unforgiveness will usually get you nowhere. Ask God to fill your heart with His love, peace, and forgiveness of those who have wronged you before you begin asking Him for anything, and see what happens in your life.
Chaos and Lawlessness
In this age of chaos and lawlessness, loving your neighbor is more important than ever before. Do not allow Satan to steal your peace or allow hatred and unforgiveness to overwhelm you. Seek God and ask Him to saturate your heart with His love for all mankind. And ask Him to keep your love strong and alive so you will be pleasing to Him. Do not allow yourself to fall prey to the Enemy’s wiles and temptations. Do not allow your love to grow cold.
Remember, Satan comes to steal, kill, and destroy. (John 10:10) He is running rampant right now in many parts of the world because he is attempting to bring the AntiChrist to power over the world, as prophesied in Scripture. (II Thess. 2) His aim is to create a One World Communist Government, with him at the helm. The American Democrats, many of whom are Luciferians, are on Satan’s side and, sadly, want the majority of us dead. But since the Bible says that Satan has already lost his battle against Almighty God, then it is only a matter of time before Jesus Christ returns to take control and defeat Satan and all of his followers. Personally, I do not want to live in a world ruled by Satan. If we can hold on to our freedoms awhile longer, it would be the best thing that could ever happen. Yes, God has a plan, but we must all fight against the Socialist/Communist takeover of our nation and our world, and trust God to put things right when Jesus returns to establish His own Government of Righteousness, Peace, Truth, and Justice. (Rev. 21 and 22)
“And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.
“And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.
“And because iniquity [lawlessness] shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.
But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.” (Matthew 24:10-13 KJV)
