But by His doing you are in Christ Jesus, who became to us wisdom from God, and righteousness and sanctification, and redemption. 1 Corinthians 1:30.
Today your LORD (יהוה) God (אלהים) says:
I created the earth, the universe, and the glorious Kingdom of Heaven, where I dwell, but I also fill the universe and all I have made in one perfect continuum of life. All life, all power, all that is created flows from Me. There is no other source of life. There are, however, differing flows.
From Me flows only goodness, righteousness, peace, joy, love, and justice. Every good thing given and every perfect gift comes from Me. I am love. I think in love, I talk in love, and I walk in love, everything else is foreign to My nature and cannot enter Me or abide in My presence. And in keeping with love, I am light, there is no darkness, no lie, no deception, no evil in Me. When you seek Me with your heart you will find Me right there with you, I have nothing to hide and only goodness to give.
When I created the human race I created you in My image and according to My likeness and gave you dominion authority in the earth over the works of My hands. You were to reign with Me forever with no separation between us. Romans 5:17; Revelation 22:5. I made you to be My family and to walk with Me in perfect oneness of heart, perfect in fellowship, purpose, and love.
I created you for fellowship in its highest sense, which is a fellowship of partnership where we would work together to increase, replenish, and cultivate the earth so that the Garden of Eden that I originally planted would be spread throughout the entire earth, which I made to be inhabited.
Adam and Eve, however, in union with an angelic spirit that I created to serve them, rejected My Word and in so doing rejected My fellowship. They hid from Me and never came out of hiding to walk with Me again. We had a broken relationship and they no longer were of the same heart with Me. They were striving against Me. Our perfect fellowship, purpose and love were destroyed, not by My Will but by Adam’s Will. And by turning to sin and the realm of darkness he became unrighteous, for sin is lawlessness, and he entered the arena of the flesh, which is a lower flow. He no longer was open to My thoughts and ways.
But My reason for creating you, that is, for our oneness in fellowship, purpose, and love, then became My reason for redeeming you back to Me. I wanted My family, planned from eternity to eternity, back and I knew what I would do to have that for Me and as a gift to you, just as your original creation had been.
I had a perfect plan to make you again the perfect man. I Myself would come to save you from your sins and make you righteous with My own righteousness. I would simply create you anew with all your sins gone and put you in Me by reconciling you to Myself in My Son. I would send My Word to heal you and deliver you from all destruction. And through faith in My Word made flesh you would be born again from above. But to have all this so only one thing was necessary: you return to Me with faith in My redemption.
Seek the LORD while He may be found; call upon Him while He is near. Let the wicked forsake his way and the unrighteous man his thoughts; and let him return to the LORD, and He will have compassion on him, and to our God, for He will abundantly pardon. “For My thoughts are not your thoughts, nor are your ways My ways,” declares the LORD, “For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways and My thoughts than your thoughts. “For as the rain and the snow come down from heaven, and do not return there without watering the earth and making it bear and sprout, and furnishing seed to the sower and bread to the eater; so will My word be which goes forth from My mouth; it will not return to Me empty, without accomplishing what I desire, and without succeeding in the matter for which I sent it. Isaiah 55:6-11.
It all starts with My Word, just as all creation did, and getting your mind and life back in communicating with My Word, taking the seed of My Word into your heart to be born again thereby.
For you have been born again not of seed which is perishable but imperishable, that is, through the living and enduring word of God. 1 Peter 1:23.
You must then retrain your thinking and speaking by renewing them with the Word. But first, I had to remove all your sins and give you a new heart and the mind of Christ so we could again be one in perfect fellowship with no barrier between us. I had to restore you to perfect righteousness and maturity of life in Me. I had to make you one to be welcome so you could come to Me in confidence free of all condemnation, regret, fear, shame, bitterness, and sin. That is the only way you could come into fellowship with Me. So I came down and I did that Myself in Christ so you could live your life with Me through, with, and in Him. He is not the end, He is the way to reconciliation with Me as one just like Me.
By this the love of God was manifested in us, that God has sent His only begotten Son into the world so that we might live through Him. In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins. 1 John 4:9-10.
You see who I am in Christ and I see who you are in Christ. Perfect. He is your redemption and our connection.
For it was the Father’s good pleasure for all the fullness to dwell in Him, and through Him to reconcile all things to Himself, having made peace through the blood of His cross; through Him, I say, whether things on earth or things in heaven. And although you were formerly alienated and hostile in mind, engaged in evil deeds, yet He has now reconciled you in His fleshly body through death, in order to present you before Him holy and blameless and beyond reproach. Colossians 1:19-22.
Without Christ perfect fellowship is not possible. To have fellowship there must be agreement and similarity in mind, heart, and vision of life. To have fellowship with you I had to make you again as righteous as Myself. I had to raise you up to My level for us to have meaningful fellowship. And that is why I put you in Christ, so that you are righteous with My own righteousness. That is the reason I sent Jesus, to make you a new creation in Him so you would be able to be one with Me as He is. Your righteousness is now from Me but you can receive that gift as your own.
Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come. Now all these things are from God, who reconciled us to Himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation, namely, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and He has committed to us the word of reconciliation. Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were making an appeal through us; we beg you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God. He made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him. 2 Corinthians 5:17-21.
In Christ, I have raised you up to new life, a life of righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. I have put you in My flow by rescuing you from the realm of darkness and translating you into the Kingdom of My beloved Son, in whom you have redemption, the forgiveness of your sins. Colossians 1:
Therefore there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set you free from the law of sin and of death. For what the Law could not do, weak as it was through the flesh, God did: sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and as an offering for sin, He condemned sin in the flesh, 4 so that the requirement of the Law might be fulfilled in us, who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit. Romans 8:1-4.
And My Holy Spirit witnesses with your spirit and testifies to you that your sins and offenses I remember NO MORE. They are no longer your fault. They were your fault, but Christ took all your faults, failures, sins, shame, guilt, blame, condemnation, sickness, grief, pain, and sorrows and took the punishment for them and served your sentence. You are free, you can run forward now keeping your eyes on Jesus for He is your way to Me, your righteousness before Me, and He is sanctifying you continually in His blood before Me in the Holy of Holies in Heaven as your great High Priest.
Welcome home! Return, return, I’ve forgiven you, return, return, I make all things new! Return and I’ll restore things better than before.
“I have wiped out your transgressions like a thick cloud and your sins like a heavy mist. Return to Me, for I have redeemed you.” Isaiah 44:22.
Receive the abundance of grace and the gift of righteousness and reign in life IN CHRIST JESUS.
Where are you? You are safe with Me in Christ. I am your refuge and your fortress, your God, in whom you can trust. I did it all for you, but you must receive the gift by faith, or you will die in your own sins. Take advantage of so great a salvation and of My invitation to perfect fellowship with Me through My Son. He is the mediator but once you have come we are reconciled and you can speak directly to Me.
You must understand this in what I have done for you in Christ—You are more precious to Me than you can fathom and all I want is you with Me no matter how many times you have strayed. And that is why I gave you the Way back to Me as a gift from My heart to yours. Please receive My gift and stop hiding from Me. You are cleared in Him of all that held us apart.
I love you. I have put you in Christ to be wisdom, righteousness, sanctification and redemption for you. For when you believed this good news of your salvation, I sealed you IN HIM with the Holy Spirit of promise as your guarantee of redemption not only of your spirit and soul but also of your body. He will raise you up glorified on the Last Day. Death will not do us apart, it will bring you to My Kingdom face-to-face, joined in fellowship with Me forever. And that is what I planned for you from the start. I am looking forward to it, are you? But the good news is you do not have to wait, you can fellowship with Me now in Christ!
