[revival-fire] Only Love...

******* REVIVAL FIRE!!! *******

Just today me and a very dear friend were talking about the (supposed) separation in between those who lean real heavy into the supernatural power of God and those who lean real heavy into the Christlike character of God.  I am not here to discuss or debate specifics but I proposed the idea to my dear sister that the Christlike character of God IS the supernatural power of God and that there was never meant to be a separation in between the two.  Signs, wonders, and miracles flow out of a patient, loving, and holy heart.  It's actually impossible to walk in one or the other without the other...

 

Given that I am extremely touched by Lauren Champagne's post regarding her return from Africa.  And that is the first time I've ever heard anyone say "become the love of God" besides God.  I have currently gone through a strange spout with healings myself (if you ask me the whole healing thing is far to complicated and confused) as I have for years now.  The most recent lesson was this.  I would see an obvious need that someone would have for healing and immediately go to heal them but the Lord would stop me and ask me "Do you even love this person?".  How can I touch and heal and save and deliver people whom I don't even love when it's the ONLY reason He ever did it...

 

Most people think that Love is some softcore issue in Christ that is all nice nice and doesn't need much attention.  The truth of the matter is the Love IS Christ and until we learn to love we will continue to be the blind leading the blind.  When the Body remembers to love and learns to love righteously (not worldly or carnally but Godly) then EVERYTHING will fall into place.  I don't have the time nor the energy to go through scripture to prove this and my dear brothers and sisters are far too arguementive and hard hearted to hear it anyways, but I promise you this...love and let love...all else will follow...

 

Or as Mahesh Chavda put it...

 

Only Love Can Make A Miracle,

 

Lord help us
