TODAY’S PROPHETIC THOUGHT
You are valuable to Me. Learn to value yourself. You are worthy because I have made you worthy in Christ. There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus (Romans 8:1). Believe it!
ALL MEANS ALL
God is not indifferent. God loves people. He is not mad at anybody. Nobody.
“Well, I’m mad at everybody, so God has to be mad at everybody.”
God is not created in your image. The Bible says at the cross of the Lord Jesus Christ, He reconciled the world unto the Father. The word reconciliation means “the removal of all hostility.” At the cross of Jesus, God put everything He’s mad at us about on Jesus.
Is the world saved? No. Reconciled means the world can now approach the Father for redemption. The upgrade of reconciliation is redemption.
For God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, no longer counting people’s sins against them. And he gave us this wonderful message of reconciliation. – 2 Corinthians 5:19
How can you say, “Run to the Father because, by the way, He’s going to kill you because He’s so mad”? That’s not the way to sow seed for a harvest of drop-dead, sold-out Jesus freaks.
How can you say, “Run to the Father before He throws a hurricane at you”? The message of the body of Christ should be clear: Because of the blood of the Lord Jesus Christ, nobody has to be afraid to run to the Father for redemption.
Don’t mess this up because you don’t like or agree with somebody. Remember, all means ALL. All have been reconciled. You are responsible to plant seeds and water them for a harvest of souls. God’s not mad at anybody and that’s a great message to win a lost and hurting world.
TODAY IS A GOOD DAY TO TELL SOMEONE GOD IS NOT MAD AT THEM. WHEN BAD THINGS HAPPEN, HE’S THERE TO LOVE AND GUIDE – NOT TO PUNISH AND JUDGE.
