One day, I asked God why he made me. What was the main purpose for which He had brought me into this world? He answered, “I made you for Myself. I delight in you.” Then I realized that to our Perfect Father it is all about the RELATIONSHIP. He made us so that He could live with us, walk among us, and talk to us—TO BE OUR GOD AND FOR US TO BE HIS PEOPLE.
WHAT AGREEMENT IS THERE BETWEEN THE TEMPLE OF GOD AND IDOLS? FOR WE ARE THE TEMPLE OF THE LIVING GOD. AS GOD HAS SAID: ‘I WILL LIVE WITH THEM AND WALK AMONG THEM, AND I WILL BE THEIR GOD, AND THEY WILL BE MY PEOPLE’
(2 Corinthians 6:16).
This is true, Beautiful One; to Me it is all about Our relationship. I made you for Myself. In fact, I went to a lot of trouble to make this RELATIONSHIP possible. I sent My Son, Jesus, to repurchase you from the father-of-lies, to snatch you off the broad road of destruction, and to take your place, so you may belong to Me. Jesus did not come to the world on His own accord. He came because I sent Him…for YOU.
FOR GOD DID NOT SEND HIS SON INTO THE WORLD TO CONDEMN THE WORLD, BUT TO SAVE THE WORLD THROUGH HIM
(John 3:17).
Even the Holy Spirit did not come on His own accord, Child. He came because I sent Him…for YOU. He came to be IN you–to tell you the things I want you to know, so We may have a daily, moment-by-moment relationship.
BUT THE COUNSELOR, THE HOLY SPIRIT, WHOM THE FATHER WILL SEND IN MY NAME, WILL TEACH YOU ALL THINGS AND WILL REMIND YOU OF EVERYTHING I HAVE SAID TO YOU
(John 14:26).
Do you have a relationship with the Perfect Father? Have you allowed the Lord Jesus to repurchase you from the father-of-lies? Do you hear your Heavenly Father’s Words to you, daily, through the Voice of the Holy Spirit?
If not, what is keeping you from this Relationship? Is it the belief that the Perfect Father does not want you, or that He will not talk to you, or that He does not like you? I urge you to invite the Holy Spirit to tell you what the Father thinks of you, so you may come into a Relationship with Him.
PRAYER: Let me walk with You, Perfect Father. Let me be Your child. Be my Father. Be my God. Be my Life. Delight in me.
Maintain an Awareness
And after we have sucked others empty and they have nothing more to give, we turn to distraction and destruction to ease the excruciating pain that oozes from our hearts…because we still believe we do not matter.
