Loving my brethren

0 comments
I have been touched in my heart. I was praying for Backpacker students and I was lead to goto Revelation 3:

"I counsel you to buy from Me gold refined in the fire, that you may be rich; and white garments, that you may be clothed, [that] the shame of your nakedness may not be revealed; and anoint your eyes with eye salve, that you may see."

While reading this I was lead by God to goto Matthew 25:31-46

I had to ask the question of God, why are you leading me to this scripture? Neither have anything to do with this student.

While contemplating the verses in Matthew 25 the penny dropped:

"And the King will answer and say to them, 'Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did [it] to one of the least of these My brethren, you did [it] to Me.'

Because if you love my ethnic brethren, you are loving me.

They are not just God's people, they are God's people. They are chosen by Him.

The treatment that you have of His people, is the treatment that you measure of Jesus, at the end of the age, when He comes in glory He is going to say "What did you do for my brethren?" unequivocally the same as saying "Do you love me?" The Man who sits on the throne of glory will set the judgment straight, with merciful judgment. Because He is also the Man who it says "will give eternal life to any that He chooses"

He chose them to be His, He entered into covenant with them.

He sent His only Son for them!

This is unconditional love!

In Deuteronomy 7 it says:

"For you [are] a holy people to the LORD your God; the LORD your God has chosen you to be a people for Himself, a special treasure above all the peoples on the face of the earth. The LORD did not set His love on you nor choose you because you were more in number than any other people, for you were the least of all peoples; but because the LORD loves you, and because He would keep the oath which He swore to your fathers, the LORD has brought you out with a mighty hand, and redeemed you from the house of bondage, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt."

We are confident then, that the kind of love that He has for Israel is peculiar. He doesn't love Israel the same way that He loves everyone else! He never intended it to be the same kind of love that He loves the rest of the world with. Every one who is loved of Him is loved peculiarly (or uniquely) this one is unique and special, precious, a treasure. This is the way that God loves us. Wouldn't that make you feel like loving everyone else in the same way, too? Saying "You need this love, too!"

Call to Prayer and Fasting Israel

0 comments
Hello!

After sharing with others, I thought I would also share on here, what is up! I will be updating the page daily with prayer notes of our time of prayer here at YWAM oxford. I actually need to put down on paper all the smallest things that God has done this weekend. So here are a summary.

When I shared obediently at church today, afterwards I was filled with Holy Spirit and noticed that people were speaking the word of God

After a time of prayer and praise with God walking home, needing an answer He provided one just before I arrived home. When I arrived home, I searched for the persons details and found it.

When I was hitchhiking, I briefly prayed and was blesssed with a ride home to Oxford. This would give me enough time to go into the prayer room and read the word, as well as pray for Richard that God's compassion would break out, with hope, which can not be trivialized.

When I got back to Oxford it was just part three oclock. I went into the dining hall, where no one was, but was filled with Holy Spirit thinking about the things I had just prayed, and I spontaneously started singing a chorus to a song, as well as "I was made for love" (from Jesus let me see your eyes - Cory Asbury) and "whom the son sets free is free indeed" (Cory and Laura) no one can take this joy from me! when I sat down at the piano miraculously found the chords and melodies for "Jesus I know you love me" and remembered how to play the IHOP music (i was looking for the music)

This is not even including the fact that He gave me perfect peace sleeping last night. I was wide awake with a thousand things on my mind, and knew that there were verses saying he would give me rest, most of the things that I was thinking about, I couldn't do anything about right then, anyway, I had done everything I could do that day (secretly I prayed that God would make this a testimony when I got up in the morning)

I don't think it's coincidence that there's peace in Yemen on the outside, peace inside of me (rest) and peace about to be prayed for Israel. It just serves to confirm my signs and wonders that God can do immeasurably more, and I want Him to get the glory for it, I want Him to have His purpose done! I want to be like Jesus! Revelation, I tell you, Wisdom!

how is it that God can have so much fun making Himself great? and that I am just along for the ride? Is that even possible by Human means? Let this wine flow out of me!

no ordinary day!
