RADICAL LOVE
and I will embrace you. I will be a true Father to you, and you will be
my beloved sons and daughters,’ says the Lord Yahweh Almighty.”
Romans 8:18–19 (TPT) reads:
“I am convinced that any suffering we endure is less than nothing
compared to the magnitude of glory that is about to be unveiled within
us. The whole universe is standing on tiptoe, yearning to see the
unveiling of God’s glorious sons and daughters.”
The Beloved Bridegroom is calling the Shulamite to a deeper level of
separation unto Him—and He is calling us to the same. Why? Because
this is now the season for the revealing of God's sons and daughters.
The world is groaning for this to happen.
In a previous session of this teaching, I mentioned how the Lord had
shown me that, in many cases, there is little to distinguish the Bride of
Christ and the life she lives, from the ways of the world. Here we see
that if we are prepared to take an active and disciplined path of faith
toward maturity, we will truly be able to live as authentic sons and
daughters—with God promising to be a true Father to us.
Theologian Dr. Brian Simmons summarises Philippians 2:13 as:
“Grace never removes our responsibility to be faithful to God. Grace
empowers us to do what pleases God.”
Will it be a pain-free and easy road? No, of course not. But it will most
certainly be worth the cost.
