What’s up! I love you this night and I have been thinking good thoughts about you. I trust and pray all things well for you. I attended church today and as I listened to the Pastor teach the Word of God, I heard the sweetness of the Holy Ghost say, “I will become an absentee Father when my children decide to love the world.”


As the word of God went forward, I was parked on pause. What God just whispered inside of me was awesome. I thought, "Whoa, I have heard that question posed by many theologians, philosophers and the like and now I have been given the answer, thank you God." 

The Amplified Bible says:

And now, little children, abide (live, remain permanently) in Him, so that when He is made visible, we may have and enjoy perfect confidence (boldness, assurance) and not be ashamed and shrink from Him at His coming. If you know (perceive and are sure) that He [Christ] is [absolutely] righteous [conforming to the Father's will in purpose, thought, and action], you may also know (be sure) that everyone who does righteously [and is therefore in like manner conformed to the divine will] is born (begotten) of Him [God].

My love, the Bible says, "Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the womb is his reward."

One of God's greatest desires is to be a Father to the fatherless. However, in order to fulfill God's desire we must desire to be His children. To be His child requires your confession of faith and faithfulness to right thinking which is lined up with the Word despite religious practices, societal norms and values.

Right thinking can only occur when you read the Bible and seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness. Simply put, you must consume the Word, hear and do it too. The more faithfulness you develop in this area will cause an impenetrable relationship between you and God. The bonding between you and Father God will increase the power of His virtue in you. His virtue is an immeasurable asset, it is His anointing.

 

Let me say it like this: Daddy’s virtue in you, particularly in dark times is an immeasurable asset. For if we are children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together. For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons (daughters) of God.

You're probably wondering if I even heard the Pastor's sermon, I did. I heard what thus saith the Lord behind the sermon and the key points as revealed by the man of God for the edification of my soul.
