The Strongest Power on the Face of the Earth Today

If love is not present, they will never see God in me or you. We might be able to operate in all the power gifts of the Spirit, but the God of all power and might is not truly revealed through these power gifts (read John 12:37 for proof of that), he is revealed through the strongest power on the face of the earth today which is "Love". The strongest power God reveals to man is His love. The man/woman who walks in this love is the strongest man on the face of the earth. The devil has no weapon against it. Love destroys the devil's work ( 1 John 3:8). Love defeated the devil at Calvary, and it's that same love that enforces that defeat of the devil today through the one who walks in this love.

It's God's greatest desire to reveal Himself through love, not His power gifts. Men are amazed at the power of God when it is on display through the power gifts such as healing, but men are moved in their hearts to faith when God's love is revealed before them. The power gifts entertain, but don't change men's hearts, where as love on display will penetrate a man's heart and cause that man to change his ways. There is no greater place to be with God then established in His love. God is unlimited with the man whose heart is filled with God's love. There is nothing that can overcome the man who is filled with God's love. The enemies of God must step aside when love is present. Love is what draws men to God, not the power gifts. Men will watch the power gifts in action, but they'll move on after the show is over. But when men see the love of God in action before them, they are drawn to it until they find the One who is producing that power of love, then they reach out and receive it for themselves and are born again. Now they themselves have become God's containers for His love to abide in and to be revealed through as God wills.

Love draws men to God. Love sends that man to other men so that other men can be drawn to God. No greater power on the face of the earth today than love. Walk in it and reveal God to all those you come into contact with. You wont have to say a thing, love will be talking through you, and you'll be preaching the true gospel of our loving God.

God's Storehouse. Do you shop there?

The WORD of God is the storehouse of God. Anything that I need or will ever need can be found in God's storehouse (His Word). The only way you can withdraw what you need from God's storehouse is by faith. You can know what is in God's storehouse and you can even have an inventory sheet of every item that God has in His storehouse, but just because you know what you need is in the storehouse, doesn't mean that you will get it. God has no lock on the door to His storehouse and it is accessible for whoever will come to get his need met. Though there be no lock on the door and it is accessible to whosoever, you can only go through the door of His storehouse to obtain what you need by one way and one way only and that is by faith. Most people know that God's storehouse exists, but they go to other storehouses to try and get their needs met. Even though the access into God's storehouse is free of charge (Rom 6:23) they choose to go to other storehouses and pay their way in and then pay for the things they need, while God all along will freely give to them what they need. The only requirement is for them to access His storehouse through the unlocked door but you can only walk through that unlocked door one way and that is by faith in Jesus. When you believe in Jesus, the Father says, " you now have access to My storehouse", but to get inside you still have to take action and go to the storehouse and open the unlocked door and go in and receive (take) what you need. But God only takes one kind of payment for His goods. God has a sign on His door to His storehouse that says, "all items are free" however payment is required to obtain these goods. Though the items are free, you can only receive them by believing that they are yours and that they belong to you. You put the things you need into your shopping cart by faith. You lay hold of what you need by faith and put it in your cart, then go to the checkout line. God only requires one form of payment. He only asks you one question which is, " Do you believe that item you have in your cart belongs to you?" Your response (not God's will -Mark 5:25-34) determines whether you get that item or not. If you say, "I believe this is mine and it belongs to me", then the Father will say to you, " according to your faith (according to what you can believe) this item is then yours. Freely you have received, now freely take it". Then you leave the store house with what you need, but the only way you keep the free item in your possession is by continually believing that it is yours until the very thing you had the need for is gone.

Now the Father says there is one group of people that really bothers (hurts) Him. It's some of His own children that disappoint Him most. These are they who know the storehouse exists and and they know where it's at. They even come to the storehouse and look into it through the windows. They see all the things that are in there, things that they need, but they won't enter into the storehouse through the unlocked door because they won't believe what God has said about His storehouse. So they continue to look into the storehouse, but they never go in and obtain what they need. (Don't forget what I said in the opening line. God's word is His storehouse)

Which person are you? Do you stand on the outside looking in, or do you go in and take what God is giving to you? The just shall live by faith (Heb 10:38). This is God's only requirement for you to get into the storehouse and receive what belongs to you. If you have just been standing there waiting on God to open the door then wait no longer for God says, " the door is already open to you if you'll come through it by faith.".

Here is what Jesus says to you in John 16:15. "All things that the Father has are Mine. Therefore I said that He will take of Mine and declare it to you". What is God the Father declaring? Whatever Jesus possesses belongs to you as well, "if" Jesus is your Savior and the Lord of your life. If this is true in your life, then know one thing for sure, the door to God's storehouse is wide open to you, but you are the one who has to choose whether you'll go in or not. Jesus says the same thing to you that He said to Peter while Peter was just sitting in the boat wondering what he should do. Jesus said, "COME", then Peter stepped out of the boat onto the water. Will you? The Father says to you, " Come, the door is wide open, take what you need".

Now the next time you pick up the Word of God in your hand, realize you are holding the storehouse of God, then go inside and start shopping.
