Fill The Lamp

Distractions are Focus Killers, that easily swallow up the immature.  The obstacles  of Fear and what's going to happen next are just a couple.   So, if you are a believer in Jesus Christ and you've been Born Again with the understanding that " if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new."  (2 Corinth 5:17).   The impediments that get in our way can only be dealt with if we are in a continual act, of overcoming, and seeking God to expand our capacity of intimacy with Him.   Best understood in  (Galatians 2 : 20).

We have much to say about this topic although it is difficult to explain, because you have become too dull and sluggish to understand.  For you should already be professors instructing others by now; but instead, you need to be taught from the beginning the basics of God’s prophetic oracles! You’re like children still needing milk and not yet ready to digest solid food.

Hebrews 5: 11,12

“Just as each one of you has received a special gift [a spiritual talent, an ability graciously given by God], employ it in serving one another as [is appropriate for] good stewards of God’s multi-faceted grace [faithfully using the diverse, varied gifts and abilities granted to Christians by God’s unmerited favor].”  1Peter 4:10

“He brought me, He formed in me the disposition of intimacy to God, He, helped me to get over my discouragements, He took me by the hand, guided and led me, and gave me an access with boldness to God as a Father,” Eph. 2:18  “For it is through Him that we both have a [direct] way of approach in one Spirit to the Father”

The Lord is sweet to Her heart as she rests under the shade of the finished work of the “Cross”.  Now think about this for a minute. The finished work of the Cross is the forgiveness of Sin. This is where we can come boldly to the throne of God as His Blood covers us.  She experiences the superior pleasures of knowing God as She feeds at His table and live under the Banner of His excellent leadership.

Drink deeply of the pleasures of this God.
    Experience for yourself the joyous mercies he gives
    to all who turn to hide themselves in him.  PS 34:8

“This is the crisis we’re in: God-light streamed into the world, but men and women everywhere ran for the darkness. They went for the darkness because they were not really interested in pleasing God. Everyone who makes a practice of doing evil, addicted to denial and illusion, hates God-light and won’t come near it, fearing a painful exposure. But anyone working and living in truth and reality welcomes God-light so the work can be seen for the God-work it is.”

John 3 : 20

This wine is delectable. Why would you save the most exquisite fruit of the vine? A host would generally serve the good wine first and, when his inebriated guests don’t notice or care, he would serve the inferior wine. You have held back the best for last.

Jesus performed this miracle, the first of His signs, in Cana of Galilee. They did not know how this happened; but when the disciples and the servants  witnessed this miracle, their faith thrived

John 2 : 10-11

God continues to test His people by allowing them to ask for anything.  The Bride, The Shulamite, The Maiden’s supreme request from the Father is "The Divine Kiss of The Word". She wants more than power, prominence and earthly comforts.  God is raising up a people who long for the Kisses of God’s Word as their supreme request.  There are many necessary things to ask for. They are secondary.  The greatest prayer of faith is to receive Grace to Love God with all our heart and strength.

O kings and rulers of the earth listen while there is time.  "Serve the Lord with reverent fear; rejoice with trembling."  Fall down before his Son and "Kiss his feet" before his anger is roused and you perish. I am warning you—his wrath will soon begin.   But oh, the joys of those who put their trust in him!

Psalm 2:10-12

Then one of them, a religious scholar, posed this question to test him:  “Teacher, which commandment in the law is the greatest?” Jesus answered him, “ ‘Love the Lord you're God with every passion of your heart, with all the energy of your being, and with every thought that is within you.’  This is the great and supreme commandment.

Matt 22:35-38
