Perfect Love


No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and His love is perfected in us. 1 John 4:12

We now have perfect love through Christ, we have this perfection because the fullness of our Father now dwells within us. We now have boldness as well. We have boldness to stand in the Day of Judgment. We now have boldness to approach our Father’s Throne of Grace in time of need. 

Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need. Hebrews 4:16 

Standing before our Father on the Day of Judgment will not be a new thing for us. Because we now walk with Him, He is in us, and He is leading and guiding us to come to His Throne of Grace. When the Day of Judgment comes, our Father won’t all of a sudden leave us, so that we will have to go up there on our own. No, our Father will still be one with us, leading us right up there, with His perfect love within us casting out all fear. In the Day of Judgment we will be bold, we will be full of boldness in Him, knowing that no harm will come to us, and that there is no condemnation for us! We will know, with the Anointed Mind that God has given us, that we have abided in God here on the earth, and that we will abide in Him for eternity. We know that our Father will never leave us or forsake us, never! Through the power of Christ we will have boldness and confidence that through Him we have passed from wrath unto righteousness!

Now here is the great part, since we now abide in our Father’s love, we know beyond any shadow of a doubt that God now dwells within us. We know that He gives us boldness to serve Him just as Jesus serves Him. 

For in that He died, He died unto sin once: but in that He liveth, He liveth unto God. Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord. Romans 6:10-11

He that saith he abideth in Him ought himself also so to walk, even as He walked. 1 John 2:6 

Look how God takes our service to the extreme limits of His power, He is God, and as He is, so are we in this world! Bam! Talk about being bold. I know I have written on this already, but do you see what this means? As God is so are we in this world! God is love, He is lay down your life love. He is never leave us or forsake us love. Love is the key, love unlocks it all, and we are just like our Father in love. People preach that we need to love all of the time, but rarely do we hear it preached like this: that in God we can’t help but love! We are born of love and our love is just like God’s love, because our love is now God’s love. His love now abides within us, never leaving us or forsaking us! We now and forevermore abide in perfect Love.
