GOD LOVES THE WORLD – Ron McGatlin

(Personal Note: Thank you, everyone, for your prayers, kind words, and patience over the past several weeks as I have been in and out of the hospital recovering from intestinal problems. God is good, and His healing power and love have brought us through to a place where we can get back on track, communing with God and seeking to pass on what He is saying and doing in this day and in the near future. Without His guidance and help, it is impossible to make sense of many things happening in the world today.)

GOD LOVES THE WORLD TOO MUCH TO LEAVE IT AS IT IS!

“For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. 17 For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.” John 3:16-17.

Mankind was perishing, and many are yet perishing without God’s gift of His Son, the one and only redeemer of this world and mankind.

The only begotten Son of God, in His many redeemed Sons in whom He, Christ Jesus, fully abides, are redeeming this world. As piece by piece, the many Sons of God occupy and tend, each their given or assigned portion of the world.

“For it was fitting for Him, for whom are all things and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons to glory, to make the captain of their salvation perfect through sufferings. 11 For both He who sanctifies and those who are being sanctified are all of one, for which reason He is not ashamed to call them brethren.” Hebrews 2:10-11.

Sons who do well with their original gift are given much more to occupy and tend for God and with God.

 “And so it was that when he returned, having received the kingdom, he then commanded these servants, to whom he had given the money, to be called to him, that he might know how much every man had gained by trading. 16 Then came the first, saying, ‘Master, your mina has earned ten minas.’ 17 And he said to him, ‘Well done, good servant; because you were faithful in a very little, have authority over ten cities.’ 18 And the second came, saying, ‘Master, your mina has earned five minas.’ 19 Likewise he said to him, ‘You also be over five cities.’”

The keys to doing well are LOVE and RIGHTEOUSNESS.

The only source of real unconditional love is Spirit God. Only by being saturated or filled with Spirit God is there access to the fullness of the unconditional love of God. The grace gift of God’s love empowers us to live righteously.

Righteousness is being fully aligned with God’s will and guidance. Alignment with God begins with communing with Him in a personal love relationship. Communing with Him in the Spirit is the only way to become one with Him and to clearly discern and hear His specific direction for our lives.

Living in alignment with God’s will and guidance is called walking in the Spirit. “If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.” Galatians 5:25.

WALKING IN THE SPIRIT

Hearing and following God DOES NOT REMAIN AN ITEM-BY-ITEM PROCESS. As our hearts grow together and become one with Him, we grow into oneness of heart and can quickly know His heart’s desire in any matter. A quick question in the spirit can provide an instantaneous reply confirming the heartfelt desire.

The written word in the Bible, properly discerned by the Spirit, never disagrees with what God is speaking in our hearts by His Spirit.  

Many years ago, as I was growing in walking in the Spirit and receiving from God, and my first books were being written from what He was giving me, He would tell me something, and I would ask Him to show me in scripture. He would give me the book and verses, and sure enough, it would be there. On one occasion, He gave me the verse, and it did not seem to confirm what He had said. I told God it’s not there. He said to look it up in the older Greek text. I researched it, and sure enough, it was there. It had been lost in the translations. I began to realize that using our translations of the Bible to test the words from Spirit God could be backward when we truly are one with God. What God speaks clearly into a purified heart can serve as a test of the translation.

Wait, before you shut me down! I realize that many people have been deceived by other spirit voices and really needed to know what the Bible said that exposes their error.

But don’t throw the baby out with the bath water, and believe that every religious interpretation of the word by your denomination is the final say. What Spirit God really says and does is the final say. Whether in His original written word or spoken into the heart of His true Sons. The original written word was first spoken into God’s sons before they wrote it down, and it became the Bible.

BIBLE DAYS AGAIN

Kings and armies had significant roles in the Bible, as do Presidents and Prime Ministers in the days of transition and transformation toward the kingdom of God on earth as it is in heaven.

Firepower and tools of war and destruction, along with tools of intelligence and advanced defense, make it impossible to forecast the potential destructiveness of near future military activities. Unimaginable things are now possible, leading to massive, abrupt changes in this world. Fulfillment of thousands of years-old biblical prophecies will come to pass in this season of world transformation.

Becoming one with Spirit God is the way not only to survival but to victory in supernatural Spirit life, walking in the Spirit to become the Forefathers of the New Kingdom of God, reality manifesting on earth as in heaven.

“Do not fear, little flock, for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom.” Luke 12:32.
