This Holy Spirit this morning shared with me what I should delight in concerning the Character of God and how to partake of that part of His Divine Nature.
“Jesus truly wants us to experience all He has and owns on the earth and we must pursue it with all our hearts.”
In Proverbs:18.10 it says The character of God is a tower of strength, for the lovers of God delight to run into His heart and be exalted on high.
I was encouraged to draw on the tower of strength God is. His Heart rather than mine which enables me to be productive and fruitful.
I was already conscious of the fidelity of God’s immutable character and heart and have drawn upon it for my life on many occasions but today I gained further insight on how to walk continually in the tower of strength the character and heart of God is for me daily.
Now the Holy Spirit pointed out that only lovers of Him delight to run, not just walk towards Him. They go after Him completely which points to giving Him undivided time, constant pursuit and attention to how He is leading.
In other words, take time to spend seeking His face putting aside all distractions and giving Him priority as it says Jesus did in Luke:5.16 However, He made a practice of withdrawing to remote places in order to pray.
Jesus chose remote places so He could not be disturbed as He ran into the Fathers heart which would be His place of safety and tower of strength and the only result or outcome would be exaltation which is exactly where Jesus walked daily in the events of His life being the extension of the Hand of God with signs,wonders and miracles.
The Holy Spirit said that as I seek Him that way it will no longer be my natural weak human character and heart that will be seen but His character and heart will be made manifest through my life each day I run to Him and permit Him to use my body,temple for his glory. As Jesus pointed out these signs shall follow them that believe Him and follow His path.
My heart leaped for joy at this new prospect of God’s character heart being seen in and through me and working from me. I am humbled at the sheer honour of being invited to partake of His Divine Nature/Heart and being an expression of it. I was also reminded of Jesus’ words to the disciples that except a man denies himself daily and takes up his cross he cannot be My disciple.
This the Holy Spirit pointed out to me is a daily happening because our hearts can easily be distracted by the fame and honour this brings us and we fall into the snare of pride and that evil way. There is nothing that compares to walking in the character and heart of God that is who He really is shining through you.
I know walking in the gifts of the Spirit are awesome but having the fullness of the Gift Giver working any of His possession through you is far greater because there are no limitations.
Just look at Paul’s prayers in Ephesians.3 that we should be filled with all the fullness of God and the result is that God does exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think according to His Power at work in us.This is because it is Him thinking and doing in us His ability versus ours. I beseech you today to make this word your daily pursuit and find grace to be what God wants you to be for His glory.
He is looking for His Kingdom of glory to be manifested through us completely and expanded to cover the whole earth as the waters cover the sea. So gird yourself up and pursue with diligence to walk in the Character and heart of God which is your strong tower and place of rest. Have a triumphant day loaded with the benefits of the Most High in Jesus Name. Amen.
