How Far Will We Go? - Joaquin Duke
Thursday, November 13th, 2008, 7:30am – From Joaquin Duke
How far will we go our own way before we realize how truly lost and separated from the Love of our Lord we are? We have been wandering in the wilderness for so long, do we know how to come home – or even where home is anymore?
We have set ourselves against God, we have truly destroyed the beauty and majesty of the body of Christ. We have violated and sinned against the greatest of all our Lord’s commandments. To LOVE one another as Christ loves us.
The wolves have scattered the flocks and the deceiver has blinded the sheep with his lies. Father knows this and sends His Word of Truth out to find his wandering sheep. He calls to them!
Though only a few hear His voice and recognize His call. “Come home – where My Love may abound in you.” He calls us together to be one with each other. “Let My Love abound in you and your Love abound in one another. Let this Love guide you and light the way for all the other sheep that have been lost. Cry to me, My beloved ones, seek My face and hear My voice.”
“Gather unto each other in Love and with Love. It is Love that will save you from the darkness, it is the Light of Truth. Only through My Love for you and the pouring out of that Love I give to you, so that you must place that Love into one another and be one in Love, may you be saved. Take no Love from the world in which darkness rules, but from the abundant Love that I give to you. Be of one mind and accord abounding in Love, at peace with one another. I call you to gather the lost and afflicted all together to be one. Do this in Love, your Love for Me and your Love for them. I have set you free, now go and set your brothers and sisters free, so they may hear My voice and come to Me. I charge you in Love, so show My Love, the lost sheep must see My light, the light I gave you so they can find their way home – and that light is Love. You know the price for this Love and you say you accept. Now let the lost be gathered together unto Love.”
Heavenly Father, I pray for the strength for each and every one of your lost children to turn and face You so they will hear Your voice clearly. I pray that the faith You have so graciously given to those You have charged with this task will stand true and strong. Please Father, show us how to uncover the Lampstands to let Your glorious light finally shine through all this darkness. In Jesus holy name we pray, Amen and Amen!
