Relationships, Only 3 Count! - Part #3
Scripture References: Mark 12:29-30, Revelation 4:11, 1 Samuel 15:22, Romans 10:2
The first and foundational RELATIONSHIP that Jesus reminds us of is the RELATIONSHIP OF AND WITH GOD, OUR CREATOR! Our Relationship WITH God is not because He created the mountains, skies, animals, or the nature of this earth you see every day. But our RELATIONSHIP WITH God is because we are OF Him, by His Will we exist!
It is by the Will of the Creator we exist and by His power we are! You are truly the MAKING OF THE EL SHADDI! Adonai, Lord God has made us and tells us HOW to relate to Him that pleases Him. Now in our great life and life abundantly, God speaks to us through His Son, Jesus.
Jesus tells us that our “Daddy”, WHO IS GOD, COMMANDS US LOVE HIM With ALL OUR Heart, Mind, Soul, and OUR strength! Just as the prophet Moses told the Israelites, Jesus tells us. There is a WAY to LOVE, Our Almighty Father! We cannot LOVE God, with misdirected ZEAL, DUTIES, WORKS, OR LABOR absent of our heart, soul, mind, and strength WILLING DESIRING HIM!
GOD IS SAYING WHAT HE HAS ALWAYS SAID…
BE OBEDIENT TO MY VERY VOICE, HEAR AND OBEY, and DESIRE MY WILL ABOVE ANYTHING ELSE! GOD SAYS, HE DESIRES OUR PASSIONS AND DESIRES TO BE TOWARDS HIM, SUBMITTING OUR INTELLECT, MEMORIES AND IMAGINATIONS TO HIS WILL DAILY. THROUGH THE VERY WORD OF HIS VOICE, BRING OUR THINKING UNDER CAPTIVITY THAT OUR VERY MIND, WILL AND EMOTIONS ARE GIVEN TO HIM. GOD SAYS, IT IS IN THE VERY OBEIDENCE OF A CHEERFUL, DESIRING HEAR OF HIM, IS OUR OBEDIENCE…OUR LOVE FOR HIM! WHEN YOU HARKEN TO MY VOICE AND ADHERE TO IT, YOU LOVE HIM!
REFLECT AND ASK YOURSELF TODAY…AM I IN A RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD, LOVING HIM ACCOURDING TO HIS COMMANDS OR DO I JUST HAVE ZEALOUS ACTS IN MY LIFE TO LET OTHERS KNOW THAT I KNOW ABOUT HIM?
