RHEMA 5/30/11  FINISHING PERFECTION:  WHAT IS MATURITY?

[Lord please help, I feel so sifted, lost and overwhelmed]

HEARD:  An answer to prayer.  Finishing school.  Finish what we started.  Visions.  Courage.  I will hold you up.  You are not alone.  I am with you. 

Vault. I will give you the key.  It's called Trust.  You have access. 

ah confirmation:  I turned to the following with anointed hands:

10/30/10  BELIEVING GOD IS NOT PASSIVE

What have I called you to do sweetheart? Just trust Me.

REVELATION HOW TO TRUST GOD:  After studying the following section of scripture, I am understanding that this whole month I have been fighting to overcome condemnation and see how it opens the door to fear, which is the opposite of faith or trust God.  When I truly understand Who God is, I become grounded in His love and that changes everything. Learning to trust God is completely intertwined with knowing His love.

FINISHING PERFECTION:  WHAT IS MATURITY?

As we remain and dwell in God's love, there comes a time that we have open confidence and not condemnation when we are accused by the enemy before the throne of God.  Why?  Because we will have finished growing into the full maturity of experiencing His love for us.  This loving relationship is an ever ending circle of mutual reciprocation, He loves/ we love/ He loves/ we love.  When we have consummated that divine interchange, our knowledge of His love (Who He is) will thrust out all alarm, fear and terror because once we know His love, we no longer fear punishment and demonic torment.  To the degree we fear, we do not know His love.  To the degree we love, we know Him.

1 John 4:16-19  NKJV

And we have known and believed the love that God has for us. God is love, and he who abides in love abides in God, and God in him.   Love has been perfected among us in this: that we may have boldness in the day of judgment; because as He is, so are we in this world. There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves torment. But he who fears has not been made perfect in love. We love Him because He first loved us.

Rom 8:35-39 NKJV

Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? As it is written: "For Your sake we are killed all day long; We are accounted as sheep for the slaughter."  Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Rev 12:10-12

Then I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, "Now salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of His Christ have come, for the accuser of our brethren, who accused them before our God day and night, has been cast down. And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death.
