Pure Glory

by Apostle Gabriel Cross

Nothing can stop pure love, nothing can conquer pure love, nothing. So whatever you encounter, God’s Love is Greater than it all…Selah

by Apostle Christiana Robinson

Delay is not denial. You have prayed for certain things to happen and they haven’t happenned yet. God says “Trust me, I know what I am doing.”

Some have prayed for certain things to happen for years and have not seen the manifestation. But God says, “It shall come to pass.” God told Noah it was going to rain, but he didn’t tell him when. Noah kept the faith and continued to build the ark until it was complete. Sometimes, when you are waiting for God to do something, you must continue the task for which God has ordained you. When God told Noah it would rain, Noah did not decide to not build the ark. He got busy! When they were talking about him, he didn’t quit. He might have felt like it, but he didn’t stop.

You may be a minstrel with dreams of becoming a recording artist. You may be a leader, who has prayed for your ministry to grow rapidly. You may be a person, who is praying specifically for a particular thing to happen, personally for you in your body or your life. While you are waiting, keep on the task at hand. While you are waiting keep trusting. While you are waiting, stay focused. While you are waiting for the rain to come, ignore what everyone is saying about you, your ministry or your dreams. Keep going through the delivery process.

In the midst of the wait, God is delivering you from the liars, the gossips, the haters, and those who said they were your friends. He is delivering you from you comparing your ministry to another ministry. He’s releasing you from comparison of yourself, as a minstrel with other minstrels. He’s freeing you from comparing your ark with someone else’s boat. The Lord said, “They that wait on the Lord shall renew their strength. They shall mount up with wings like the eagles. They shall run and not get weary. They shall walk and not faint. Wait, I say, on the Lord.” (Isaiah 40:31)  IT SHALL COME TO PASS.

Let’s be honest, not everyone is honest. Here are some examples:

“Hello, Brother Watermelon. How are you?”

“I am blessed and highly favored!”
(YEAH, RIGHT!)

“Hello, Sister Cantaloupe. How are you?”

“I am excellent.”
(STOP LYING!)

“Hello, Mr. Chocolate Bar. How was your day?”

“Oh, the Lord is good all the time.”
(STOP BEING RELIGIOUS!)

In relationship, God created us not only to worship him, but as helpers for one another. He wants us being real with each other. It does not make us bad people, if  “How have you been feeling?” brings our response, “I haven’t been feeling well lately.” We say by program, “I am excellent. I am blessed and highly favored,” or some other religious answer and we don’t tell the truth. Part of relationship, is honest communication, which is worship to God. If we are “going through,” in our heart or body, and a friend asks,“How are you?” don’t lie. Be honest. Because that friend can pray with you, or listen, as you tell what is troubling you. Caution: Make sure God wants you to unload to this person because some people are nosy and prey upon your weaknesses.

Leaders have a tendency to hold back because:
1. They want to look good.
2. They lack trust.
3. They want to keep a certain reputation
4. They feel like the person can’t handle the truth.
5. “I can handle it, I’m alright.”

Whatever it is, don’t hold it inside. It will make you sick. God is always available. Sometimes he wants us to come straight to him. Other times it’s okay with him to talk to someone. He may send people to listen, as you complain about your day or fuss about how he or she got on your nerves. Why? Because this is an avenue of release, freedom and healing. God believes in covenant relationship. He understands humans enjoy face-to-face contact. Look at David and Jonathan, Moses and Aaron, Ruth and Naomi, Jesus and Peter, James and John. Hello! Even Jesus had someone with whom to talk. Also, we first need honesty with ourselves, before we can show honesty to others. When we stop lying to ourselves, we can stop lying to others. A part of transparency is letting someone see the raw side of you. This can also bring deliverance to them, because you won’t seem like a super Christian.

God is exposing the lies of the enemy that have wreaked havoc in your life. The truth that you are exceedingly loved and cherished, by Abba Father, has replaced the lies. You are God’s child and he is greater than the enemy. He is tenderly restoring you. His love conquers all. Believe, as a child and receive what God has done. He is accomplishing it, with his mighty right arm. Complete recovery of everything, stolen from you and your ancestors, with wholeness is yours. Praise him, for his mighty work in your life!

A friend asked, “Where is all this Wealth God promised me?” God said, “It’s in your giftings, use what I gave you and I will make room for you. The Wealth is in people, (true covenant relationships) and your gifts, fight to keep them (people) and don’t neglect to use them (gifts).”

by Apostle Gabriel Cross

The things that were meant to bury and handicap you for life, are the things that God is using to propel and impel you, into greater Glory. God is RAISING you UP and Restoring it all!

Yeshua, our Messiah, is saying, ” Do not lose heart. Have no fear of the wind, the earthquake, the flood, or the things that are rocking the world, as you know it. I am not the cause of the wind or the disasters that are shaking your world. I hold you close and will never let you go. Fear not, for I am with you. I am your Redeemer and I walk with you through the flood and fire. I keep you through the storms of life. I will not allow your destruction.”

“Listen, for my still small voice. I will never leave you or forsake you. During the storm, I am with you and carry you. Your foundation is firm because your foundation is solid, which is me. The gates of hell will not prevail against you.”

“Fear not, when you see disaster on every side. Know my child, I am with you and will never forsake you. Rest in my love. Although a thousand may fall on one side and ten-thousand on your other side, I am here. Keep your focus on me not on the enemy. My love is stronger than the storm. You will know that I, your Redeemer lives, and I am your Sanctuary. Be encouraged.”

My Dear Child,

Put on the mind of the Anointed One and take every thought captive. Know and experience my love. My love is not dependent on your performance.

Know I am softening your heart, so it is supple and pliable and able to receive my love that I am pouring out on you. Receive and bask in my love. It is without measure, pressed down and overflowing you. Let my love penetrate every cell in your body. It is changing how you view yourself. You are the most exquisite and expensive jewel because I paid the highest price for you with my Beloved Son’s life and blood. Let my love change your perspective. Receive and know that you are well-loved.

Love,
Abba

What are we willing to do, to spend time with the ones we love (or the ones we are learning to love)? We have one life to live. Some might say, “Well I don’t want be bothered, leave me alone.” This person has the wrong attitude. In relationship, some have a tendency to always receive and not give. They enjoy people calling  them, coming to their home and buying them things. But, what about the reverse? Are we doing what it takes to give (as God may lead)? To phone someone and say, “Have a blessed day?” Or to go to someone’s house and keep them company? Or to bless someone with a gift to show appreciation? We don’t always have to spend money, on a gift to show love, we can make it or write a song. Be creative! To those who have sucked up all the love and not dished it out, its time to love in action. It’s so easy to say, “I love you.” But, show it! What we do unto the Lord, will last. Whether it’s in deed or character. Love in action. Consider the ones we love. Consider the ones we don’t love. Ask God to give us the grace, to love them, with his love, as a blessing to both. Eventually the haters will change and learn LOVE. God is Love.
