by Apostle Gabriel Cross
I know it is a little lengthy but when you have a chance, mull over this please?
I have learned and am still learning that what Yahweh values, more than us doing everything perfectly, is our hearts being perfectly and completely his. I was raised, cultured, and taught to think that I was terrible or not good enough, if I messed up or did not do everything right. Shameful, shame on me when I messed up. However, this is not the relationship Yahweh wanted nor desires us to have. First of all, he replaces our shame with joy, grace, glory and great inheritance.
“Because you got a double dose of trouble and more than your share of contempt, Your inheritance in the land will be doubled and your joy go on forever.” (Isaiah 61:7)
Yahweh’s glory and beauteous love within, puts our enemies to shame and dresses our accusers in clothes dirty with shame. (Psalms 109:26-29) There is no shame in his Presence. The more we are in Abba’s Presence, the more we become shameless.
Even when we are weak or tempted. He encourages us to rejoice, and boast in him.
2 Corinthians 11:30 If I must needs glory, I will glory of the things which concern mine infirmities. 2 Corinthians 12:5 Of such an one will I glory: yet of myself I will not glory, but in mine infirmities. 2 Corinthians 12:9 And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
Glory – (to boast) to vaunt or brag (in a good sense):–(make) boast, glory; to pray to God;
Infirmities – feebleness (of mind or body); malady; morally, frailty:–disease, infirmity, sickness, weakness. Strengthless, impotent; any disorder or disease of the body, especially one that is chronic or deepseated.
The Father desires us to glory, rejoice, boast in him, and pray to him in our feebleness of mind, weaknesses, and strengthless moments. We are called to glory in our infirmities that the power of Christ will rest upon us. Again, there is no room for shame in the Presence of Yahweh.
I am so ecstatic and relieved in knowing and learning the love he has for me, and for you. Yahweh is all about our relationship with him not our religion with each other. One thing that is permanent and unconditional, is the love Yahweh has for you. You can also rest assured that Yahweh will never divorce nor break up with you. Our broken hearts are attractive to Him because he mends, restores, and gives us new hearts, like his. In lieu of living your life scared to do something wrong or living in fear, be afraid not to receive the perfect ferocious love Abba has for you. Receive his love, by learning to forgive yourself and love yourself, exactly the way the Father does.
The next major move of the Father within the body of Christ, is being intentionally relational with Yahweh and being intentionally relational with each other. Versus putting on airs, being pretentious, and acting like you are something you are really not. I encourage you today, to learn the love and discern the heart of the Father for you and not the opinionated impulses of others or what we have made the church to be. You are not being religiously graded and monitored, but perfectly, supernaturally, and unequivocally loved…Selah

I too needed this reminder to focus on His Love and not compare myself to what I “imagine” people’s opinions of me are. I sensed you were being vulnerable with this post. That is what makes it so good. Thank you for sharing.

Thank you, Derek, for taking the time to make your thoughtful comment. It is so easy to get into comparisons of ourselves with others rather than concentrating on the love of God.

I wish I could write how much I needed this today and why, but that would be more of a post than a comment. Maybe a post that needs to be written out of great gratitude. Thank you for touching my mind and heart with the truth of these beautifully healing words.

“Yahweh is all about our relationship with him, not our religion with each other.” Amen, that’s what it’s all about. Learning to love, is knowing how to be. Drawing closer to His heart, we are made perfect. In Yahweh alone, our hearts are made whole, nothing missing, nothing broken! Glory, Hallelujah! Well said!
