As I finished praying one day, I waited as I generally do to hear what the Lord had to say. I was thought that prayer is a two way thing and that God speaks to those who take the time to listen. So as I waited, I heard the Lord say, "I love you." I thought to myself, "Is that it?" I mean it means alot to me, but after all that I just said, he simply said, " I love you."
About a week before that God had scolded me for taking what he tells me and not meditating on it, so I gently mulled this thought over in my mind. Why is this so important for God to just simplify everything with these three words? What significance could that truly have? What did he want these words to mean to me?
Well, as these questions came to mind; I could help but to think this thought. Because God loves me, I am safe. Nothing can harm me. I am safe in his love. God's love should cast out all fear. The bible says perfect love cast out all fear. Well, I had heard this scripture before. But then i thought, what love is more perfect than God's? His love is too wide to go around. Too deep too go under, and too high to go over.
So with everything I had prayed God's simply answered me with, "I love you." These words was a answer to everything I had prayed. It should calm all my fears. It is a completion. Why? Because if God loves me than nothing else should matter. God always takes care of his own. My confidence should be at its all time high just knowing that the Father loves me.
What are you struggling with today? What are you trying to figure out to no end? What are you waiting on an answer for today? God's answer to your problem is, " I love you."
Ever asked someone something very serious and you were really in a hurry? But the person that you asked the questions said something that doesn't seem to be serious and you really feel that they aren't taking you serious at the time? Well, you know that they did hear you, and truth is they have already taken care of what you need. They just want to enjoy the process of telling you. Well, that is what God is doing, when he skims past all your problems and says in a loving way, I love you. He knows already that he have taken care of your needs, problems and wants; he just wants to enjoy the process of telling you.
Enjoy the beauty of God's love, for it brings safety. When you feel safe you will be at peace. PERFECT LOVE CAST OUT ALL FEAR, WHY? BECAUSE YOU ARE SAFE IN THE FATHER'S LOVING ARMS AND NOTHING THERE CAN TOUCH YOU. BE BLESSED SAINTS.
TODAY'S SCRIPTURE: 1 John 4:18 says There is no fear in love: true love has no room for fear, because where fear is, there is pain; and he who is not free from fear is not complete in love.
TODAY'S PRAYER/CONFESSION: Father, help me to know that your love is like the period at the end of a sentence. It completes everything that I have said to you in prayer. Help me to understand that because you love me that you will take care of me. Help me to be confident in your love and not worry about anything today. In Jesus name I pray. Amen
