Today’s Reading:
1 John 4
“Delightfully loved friends, don’t trust every spirit, but carefully examine what they say to determine if they are of God, because many false prophets have mingled into the world. Here’s the test for those with the genuine Spirit of God: they will confess Jesus as the Christ who has come in the flesh. Everyone who does not acknowledge that Jesus is from God has the spirit of antichrist, which you heard was coming and is already active in the world.”
1 John 4:1-3 TPT
The Spirit of the Lord says,
My love is very present. My love is being magnified in a very real, very tactile way. The truth of love will be known. The truth of sacrifice will be known. The truth of heartbreak will be known. The truth of the Gospel of the Kingdom will be known. The truth of the greatest love story ever written and ever told will be known. My love is being made known, and it will not be tainted by false doctrine. It will not be tainted by imitations and substitutions. It will not be imposed upon by culture, by evil or by darkness.
“The light of God’s love shined within us when he sent his matchless Son into the world so that we might live through him. This is love: He loved us long before we loved him. It was his love, not ours. He proved it by sending his Son to be the pleasing sacrificial offering to take away our sins. Delightfully loved ones, if he loved us with such tremendous love, then “loving one another” should be our way of life! No one has ever gazed upon the fullness of God’s splendor. But if we love one another, God makes his permanent home in us, and we make our permanent home in him, and his love is brought to its full expression in us. And he has given us his Spirit within us so that we can have the assurance that he lives in us and that we live in him.”
1 John 4:9-13 TPT
My love will be made known, and it is a mighty relentless force. It is a mighty cleansing force. It will take hold of something, someone, and it will not let go. My love is an all consuming fire. My love will change hearts and perspectives and understandings in a heartbeat, in a moment, in an instant. My love is being made known and will be made known.
This is a time where My love is flowing out and blanketing the Earth. My love is covering, hovering and restoring. My love will bring many out of corruption and decay into wholeness and purity. Where things were rotting, festering and decaying, you will see new flesh, new life, total restoration. This will happen in cities across America and the world. Entire cities will be touched by My love and be made holy. Once they receive My love, their lives will turn to an insatiable pursuit of holiness, of sanctification, of longing to see and sit in My glory. Change is incoming.
“Those who give thanks that Jesus is the Son of God live in God, and God lives in them. We have come into an intimate experience with God’s love, and we trust in the love he has for us. God is love! Those who are living in love are living in God, and God lives through them. By living in God, love has been brought to its full expression in us so that we may fearlessly face the day of judgment, because all that Jesus now is, so are we in this world.”
1 John 4:15-17 TPT
My love is here. My love is pursuing the many. My pure, untainted, unmanipulated love is coming, is here and is going out to the one and to the many. This is My love path. My love path is to the one, to the many, to the cities and to the world. It starts with the one. It stays with the one. It will affect the whole world. These are the days of My glory. You will see My name in lights. My love in the one, in the many will make My Name famous throughout the Earth. You will see My Name in lights.
