Where is the Love?

💔 WHERE IS THE LOVE? 💔

We must ask ourselves how bad does the world have to get for us to start questioning what is going on?

If leaders of nations are not loving we must ask ourselves where is it going to come from?

Could you honestly look in the mirror and say it's going to come from me?

Because I know a Man who truly gave Himself up for all of the world.

Let us take a moment to remember..

A covenant was made with Abraham.

Animals were ripped apart.

Blood and bones were scattered on the ground.

Who broke the Covenant becomes as they did.

Abraham was willing..

As he also was when he was called

To sacrifice his only son...

But then a miracle happened, Abraham was put to sleep while standing.

And the Creator of The Heavens and Earth

Walked both sides.. Alone.

He knew we'd fail.

But just as He sent a ram in place of Abraham's only son unto us a Child was born..

She shall give birth to a Son, and they shall call His Name Emmanu'ĕl... — Matthew 1:23

He became a Man who gave sight to the blind, made the lame walk, healed the sick, raised the dead, and brought Good News to the poor.

He loved widows, orphans, the lowly, the afflicted.

He loved the lost, sinners, the broken, the possessed.

He loved those who hated Him.

He loved those who would pour out His blood

And reveal His bones..

Just imagine being so badly beaten

That you could count your own bones..

"I count all My bones;

They look, they stare at Me."

Psalm 22:17

Bloodied and beaten..

To the point of being unrecognizable..

...so the disfigurement beyond any man's, and His form beyond the sons of men—" Isaiah 52:14

And as He was crucified, He cried out for us.

"Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they do."

I was lost but now I am found because

If you ask me that is where the love is. ❤️

He is love ❤️

But in a world full of believers..

Where is that love...?

See it is written:

"A renewed command I give to you, that you love one another, as I have loved you, that you also love one another. By this shall all know that you are My taught ones, if you have love for one another."

—  John 13:34–35

As I.

Have.

Loved.

You..

He showed us how to love.

He told us how to love.

He taught us how to love.

He commanded us to love.

"But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those cursing you, do good to those hating you, and pray for those insulting you and persecuting you"

And it is written:

Beloved ones, let us love one another, because love is of Elohim, and everyone who loves has been born of Elohim and knows Elohim. The one who does not love does not know Elohim, because Elohim is love.

— 1 John 4:7–8

If you do not love just as He loves

You don't even know Him..

What does the Scripture say about those who do not know Him?

"And then I shall declare to them, 'I never knew you, depart from Me, you who work lawlessness!'

Matthew 7:22

It is written:

If you love Me, keep My commands. (John 14:15)

Again, what is His command?

"This is My command, that you love one another, as I have loved you." (John 15:12)

I have dropped down to my knees in tears and asked of Yahuah how could I possibly love like You...?

This Scripture was spoken:

"With men this is impossible, but with Elohim all is possible."

And He opened my eyes to the Scriptures.

We cannot love others as He loves us....

But He can in us.

That is the secret of the Good News.

"The secret which has been hidden from ages and from generations, but now has been revealed to His set-apart ones, to whom Elohim desired to make known what are the riches of the esteem of this secret among the nations: which is Messiah in you, the expectancy of esteem." — Colossians 1:26–27

That same Esteem that dwelt above the Ark in the Most Set-apart Place is now made available through Messiah Yahusha, so that we become His dwelling place.. ❤️‍🔥

Therefore when Messiah is dwelling in us, it is His love that pours out through us..

And that is the Love that changes the world. 💞

I ask again, do you have it? 🪞

Are you willing?

He said to them, "Whoever wishes to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his stake daily, and follow Me. For whoever wishes to save his life shall lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake and the Good News', he shall save it." — Mark 8:34–35

Shalom beloved
