My Emphasis
Can a child choose who will be his parents? Can he choose who will be his brother or sister? Just as you cannot choose who will be your family, that’s proof that you didn’t come to this Earth on your own accord. Somebody sends you here to live and return to Him. No matter what your child does to you, you cannot deny him. If your child’s head is too large, will you cut it off? You belong to the Father, and He cannot deny you. Yet, He works on principle. His principle is simple, very simple. Holiness is His principle! This He requires from all His children, especially Christians. He doesn’t want to lose you, but at the same time, He will not allow any trace of demons in His Kingdom.
The Bible says in the Book of Romans 8:35, 38-39 that, “Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” The Bible says again in the Book of Romans 5:8 that, “But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” The Master Himself said in the Book of John 3:16 that, "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life." Because of the kind of love the Father has for us, He demonstrated it by killing His Son for our redemption. Therefore, no matter what you may be passing through, just remember that Jehovah God loves you.
Does this love give us room to indulge in sin? Not at all! Jesus Christ loved the Father, and He obeyed Him to the point of death, unmerited death. This paved the way for us to be closer to the Father than ever. A good child does the will of his Father, but a foolish and wicked child disobeys Him. If we love the Father, we will do His will. And if we do His will, we do our own will because it will benefit us in the end. His will alone will catapult us to the land of glory at last.
My dear Beloved, let us strive more to follow the example of our Master who gave us life, abundant life. Let us persevere through faith and endure every hardship that may come our way. It’s only for a while, and in a short time, our joy shall be made complete in Him when we shall drop this body of sin in exchange for a glorious one. I pray for you today that Holy Spirit will guide and guard your heart and soul as you continually strive to walk with Him in Jesus' name. Amen! May the Lord give you the grace to walk with Him in Jesus' name.
