Love's Demands

“I am not seeking those who merely speak of love, but those who embody it. When your words and actions collide, an offbeat rhythm arises, leaving others feeling isolated. 

When will you learn that love is the only way forward? When will you place my desire above your own? I yearn for you to be known for your authentic essence, for the love that radiates from within. The world longs for the Christ within, and I am the source of that longing.

You attempt to swim against the world's currents, which have impoverished your soul. And look, you’re spending currency for reproduction. Copycats! 

When I spoke you into being, you were branded by my voice, creativity, and divine thought inspired who you are. Yet, you draw sustenance from a poisoned well, believing your accomplishments are enough.

Do you know what Christ you serve? 

Have you folded in the Kingdom?

Do you even have the ability to reach into the lofty space of my cupboard for the necessary ingredients for impact? 

No. I’ll answer you straight. You are not able. You’ve not eaten from the tables that offer such a taste or form a palate that craves goodness and mercy. You’re right! I’ve seen you portray goodness, that portrayal shapes nothing. Copycats! 

Each of you was made in the vast likeness and high esteem of my character, something you know little about. You must learn to hold your form. Pretenders! Actors in an epic play -- staged lives performing upon my altar.

When will you regard love?

Love is the purest form of worship. You desire to please Me, yet you often fail to love deeply. You use the language of love to manipulate others, neglecting the selfless service that lies at its heart. Do you not remember that My sacrifice on the cross was an act of profound love, born out of a desire to bear your burdens?

You speak of forgiveness, yet your actions often betray a hidden desire for revenge. Let us put to death our earthly desires and embrace the Spirit. True discipleship requires a life of consistent obedience, not just empty pronouncements.

My Kingdom triumphs through the power of self-sacrificing love.

Put on Love. Live upright.

Song of Songs 8:6-7

Set me as a seal on your heart, as a seal on your arm.

For love is as strong as death; jealousy is as unrelenting as the grave. 

Love’s flames are fiery flames – an almighty flame!

A huge torrent cannot extinguish love; rivers cannot sweep it away.

If a man were to give all his wealth for love,

It would be utterly scorned.

Is your love as strong as death? Do you yearn for the world to know Me? Are you consumed by the fiery passion of love, burning away your selfish desires?

I long for you to experience the power of this inextinguishable love. I walked this path, leaving a mark on the earth. My presence still resonates, stirring a deep longing within creation to embrace My children, My bride.

Surrendering your life is not merely an invitation, but an essential step. You cannot hold onto both the world and true love. Let go, beloved. Let go and embrace Me fully."
