And this is how I begin my day, of course, after I begin it with prayer. Plus prayer allows me to hear myself go at the Father for a few minutes, before I get to settle back, and see what it is that he would like to address back at me today. I don’t know if many people realize it, but it really is all about the Father. Even Jesus made that real clear also: John 5:30, “I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me.” I don’t really know if people understand the meaning behind that, as most people appear to the world to be speaking out of both sides of their mouth; you know, like having a double standard for different situations and people. The thing that made Jesus’ judgement so just is that it was not his will in which he was laying down the judgement. When you show up on the scene as a representative of the one that sent you, your playing card can not be don’t shoot the messenger: you have to know that you are everything to the success of the one that sent you. You may not have been the author of the will, but you are the one who can kill the will if you are not able to step up to the plate as though you mean it, as Jesus meant it, when you say that God is my Father.
What shall I do with the Father today? Well, not a whole lot of his business, if you are not in it as if you were him. Yeah, I know it’s not easy to really be an adopted son of the Father, and of course Jesus knows first hand that it is not easy to really be the only begotten Son of the Father, as he advocates from experience before the Father on our behalf: after Jesus made that proclamation before the Jews, they sought even more to kill him; and his stock just plummet in their view to the lowest all time at 666 by all the brokers at the Jerusalem stock exchange. lol. If the Father is going to come back at you in prayer with major expectation of doing his business today, he is going to expect you as being on his behalf, to stand as he would stand. There has to be a certain love for the Father that will allow you to make just decisions on his behalf, as they are made by spirit, and not just by blood: Mark 3:32-35, “And the multitude sat about him, and they said unto him, Behold, thy mother and thy brethren without seek for thee. 33) And he answered them, saying, Who is my mother, or my brethren? 34) And he looked round about on them which sat about him, and said, Behold my mother and my brethren! 35) For whosoever shall do the will of God, the same is my brother, and my sister, and mother.” Yeah, it can put you in a pickle, and it really is what it is, but can you be just, when you must, in the midst of your own blood?
My late father had the greatest impact on my life than any other human I have ever met, and I have met quite a few people who I consider to be a great blessing for my life. The love I had for him, has only been matched, and surpassed by the love I now have for my heavenly Father. I said that, to say this, to have the strength to really be just, even when in a pickle, you must have a love for the one who you represent, that is above the love you have for any other one. This is the type of love that allows you to come to do his will, and not yours or your others’ will. My late father only once told me as a boy growing up, if you ever come home beat up, I am going to beat you up myself. No more ever had to be said about that subject. There was no one on the planet that I loved more than my dad; and therefore, there would be no one else on the planet bringing enough fear, muscle, jokes, bullying or whatever else motivating them, that could overcome the power of my father’s word in my life. That word from the one that I loved the most just kept me poised to succeed over the years; and I can think of only one confrontation that really put me to the test: I was in the sixth grade, and this bigger seventh grader tried to make me give him my lunch money. Well, good luck with that, and you know how that pop test turned out. If you love the (F)father in the way that you claim to love the (F)father, you will never find yourself in a pickle: it maybe a pickle for others, and maybe rightfully so, but it will not be a pickle for you. If your source is truly the greater source, there is no motivation to come at you that can be greater than your motivation! Now, What Shall I Do With The Father Today?
The Father Still Does Love To Do The Body Good!
