Jesus Christ Offers Complete Intimacy

I always thought of intimacy when I thought of sex. I was molested when I was 3 and one-half years so I’ve always seen sex as intimacy. But, Jesus Christ has shown me intimacy is much, much more than that. Intimacy with Jesus Christ, Yahweh (God the Father), and Jesus’s Spirit (the Holy Spirit of Holy Ghost) will literally blow your mind if you surrender fully and embrace the Godhead as your Husband; you are the Bride of Christ, but it goes much deeper.

“For thy Maker is thine husband; the Lord of hosts is his name; and thy Redeemer the Holy One of Israel; The God of the whole earth shall he be called.” (Isaiah 54:5) (KJV)

You can argue that is talking about God the Father and Jesus Christ. But, I read it as it is talking about Yahweh here. God is usually referred to as maker. Lord is usually Jesus. The Holy Spirit is Jesus’s Spirit so all three are Husband of the Christian. That Scripture says clearly the whole Godhead is your Husband. God is maker, Jesus is Lord and Redeemer.

Do you really realize WHO lives inside you?

The entire Godhead lives inside you if you accept the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. That’s how it is supposed to be. You know why marriages on earth end when you die? Because in eternity you are married to Jesus Christ!

You were bought with the pearl of great price.

“For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.” (1 Corinthians 6:20) (KJV)

Jesus is Lord no matter what you believe.

“For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?” (Mark 8:36-7) (KJV)

At the end, every knee shall bow and every tongue shall confess Jesus is Lord. (Philippians 2:10-11) And, if you are condemned to hell, you will confess that you were judged righteously.

Back to intimacy...

The entire Godhead rests inside a Christian.

“He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.” (Psalm 91:1) (KJV)

The Holy Spirit makes my skin tingle, my flesh warm, my bones vibrate (the coolest thing ever). He loves a good joke, I see Him in my mind’s eye and Spirit, He looks like Jesus. They are the same, but they are three. That’s the Godhead to me. There is a depth in God you can go that really will blow your mind. The Spirit World is far more real than the physical world. I remember a preacher talking about that. I fully got what he said even though I don’t remember who it was. The physical world is built on the spiritual world. But, God moves inside all realms and is ever present in all realms. God sees all.

The Intimacy Jesus Christ offers really can only be realized when you accept that He is the Husband, you are His Bride (Bride is corporate an individual) and you are supposed to pick up your cross and follow Jesus. You have to really surrender. Basically, you have to say it and mean it, Jesus, whatever you want, do with me. After I did that, the conclusion came to me that I believed every word of the Bible whether I understood it or not. No doubt. Jesus said it, I can count on it.

You know how some Bibles have Jesus’s words in red? Well, let me let you in on a little secret...Jesus wrote the whole Bible. Every word of the Bible is Him. It’s as living as any living thing, and soooooo much more. The Bible is sharper than a two-edged sword. (Hebrews 4:12)

“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” (John 1:1) (KJV)

Jesus is the Word.

The Bible is Jesus is written form.

What name is Satan scared of? Jesus! Demons scatter at that name.

Intimacy.....

God is a personal God. Jesus is a personal Husband. The Holy Spirit is the Comforter. “But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.” (John 14:26) (KJV)

Jesus is my Husband and He moves inside me. God searches my insides, looks at my heart. The Holy Spirit quickens my mortal body (John 6:63). His Word is written on the fleshly tablets of my heart (2 Corinthians 3:3), and fills my mind. I live not by bread along, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God (Matt 4:4)

“It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.” (John 6:63) (KJV)

I saw Husband to Jesus a lot. He is my Husband. All three of them have moved me to feel all kinds of emotions. I always wanted a wife, but, truth is, the only thing I needed was a Husband. I wanted someone to take care of me. God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit all said to me: “I will.”

When I got saved, when anyone gets saved, you get married to God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit. Most probably don’t fully get that. Some may not get it at all. But, I knew there was love there that is beyond anything a human being can begin to offer. Jesus is complete love. God is an Agape love. In God, you’ll find a Father (Yahweh), a Husband (Jesus Christ) and a Comforter (the Holy Ghost).

The Passion of Jesus Christ, all of them, is overwhelming when you finally understand it. They all listen to me and my bullspit and actively listen. They listen to me talk about how I feel without any hint of judgement. Jesus not only loves me, but Jesus likes me. Jesus is totally, head over heels in love with every one of his flock. It’s not sexual, but it is way more than that. I’m single and the Anointed sex God has made my body capable of is the best sex ever. I love to feel romantically about Jesus and God. They love so completely, you will fall head over heels in love with Them. But, you will go higher than that. God will drench you in love, in complete intimacy with Him.

Intimacy is joining with God. Just like a Husband joins with his wife sexually and becomes one flesh, Jesus joins with you (lives inside you) and fulfills all your wildest dreams of intimacy. His intimacy isn’t sexual, but is so much more. I don’t know how to explain it otherwise. It is knowing He sees through your eyes, feels what you feel, knows what you think. Eventually, you will know you are in the cradle of His hand. You’ll feel Jesus presence all around you. I love it when the Holy Spirit anoints my eyes. Absolutely love to lay in bed and feel my bones vibrate with the Holy Spirit. I love laying down and just letting the Holy Spirit drench my body with the Anointing. I love speaking in tongues and have no clue what I’m saying. But, it feels good.

I love, absolutely love saying, “Jesus is my Husband” because He loves me completely. Human love is up and down. Jesus’s love is constant, it is more constant than the northern star. Jesus is always going to be the same yesterday, today and forever. (Hebrews 13:8) (KJV) Jesus lives inside me, He nourishes my body, my spirit and my soul. He owns it. I can’t wait to one day soon to hug him tightly. But, in heaven, Jesus’s presence will always be there for you.

Jesus promises thing like this...

“And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.” (John 10:28)

Right there, Jesus has you in His hand.

I talk to God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit a lot. My advice is to tell Him everything. Hold nothing back. Jesus wants to hear your voice. He lives to hear your voice. “Draw near to God and He’ll draw near to you.” (James 4:8-10) (paraphrase) The more you talk to Jesus like a Husband. The more He’ll talk to you.

The world is preparing for the Tribulation.

Heaven is preparing for a Wedding.

Will you be caught unaware?

Now is the day of salvation. (2 Corinthians 6:2)

You have no time to wait. The end really is near. Get saved now or you probably never will. That really is the reality of the situation.

Jesus’s Name is on the Wind

Jesus is the way, the truth and the life. No one comes unto the Father except by Him. He’s the light that overcomes the darkness. Jesus is the Rose of Sharon and the Lily of the Valley. His name is on the lips of the wind. His soothing, still voice whispers in the ears of many. He comforts the hurting and the dying. His Spirt holds the universe together. The first time Jesus came as the Lamb, but He will return as the Lion of the Tribe of Judah. He gives a voice to weak and is the wind that sweeps away the pride of man. He is light to light and the splendidness of the mystery of God. Love is nothing but a mere reflection of His love for all. In Jesus, there is healing and salvation and peace. Jesus is the Great I AM, and the Star of Bethlehem. He holds planets in his hands, and comforts the smallest animals at the moment of their deaths. Jesus is the prayer on the lips of those speaking in tongues. Jesus is the helmet of salvation, the shield of faith, the breastplate of righteousness. Jesus was the fire that didn’t consume the bush when God spoke to Moses. Jesus is benevolence and grace and complete love. No greater love a man can have that to lay down His life for His friends. He’s the Groom of the Bride. Jesus is the perfect Husband in every way. In the name of Jesus, there is ultimate power, the voice of God thunders and overcomes all evil. One day, very, very soon, every knee shall bow and every tongue shall confess Jesus is Lord, to the Glory of the Father.

“Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left. Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.” (Matt. 24:41-42) (KJV)

We are at the end. That great getting up morning, called the Rapture, could happen at any time. The world is ripe for the Tribulation and the Great Tribulation. You don’t want to be here for God’s judgement and wrath poured out on mankind.

You are God's prized possession and Satan HATES YOU! Honestly, has Satan ever done anything for you? Really? Nope, not one thing! Jesus, on the other hand, has paved the way for us with complete and utter victory over everything, especially Satan and his ilk. When Jesus died on the Cross, he took away the sin of the world. We only have to repent and ask Jesus into our heart to be born again.

Do you want to go to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb of God, Jesus Christ, or burn for all eternity?

Do you know Jesus?

Well, it is easy to know him and experience his undying, unfathomable love and affection.

He came and died for you.

"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life." (John 3:16) (KJV)

There is no greater love than Jesus.

"Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends." (John 15:13) (KJV)

Accept Him today if you don't know him.

Sinner's Prayer

"Dear Lord Jesus, I know that I am a sinner, and I ask for Your forgiveness. I believe You died for my sins and rose from the dead. I turn from my sins and invite You to come into my heart and life. I want to trust and follow You as my Lord and Savior."
            
Now, go and tell someone and welcome to His Kingdom.

The Holy Spirit Baptism is a gift. Just pray, "God, I accept the Holy Spirit as a gift and welcome Him into my being. Thank and praise you Jesus for the Holy Spirit." In these dark times, you need the Holy Spirit right after getting saved.

Amen!

Jesus is the Love You've Dreamed About



Jesus is the Love You've Dreamed About

Jesus wants to be your spiritual husband. "For thy Maker is thine husband; the LORD of hosts is his name; and thy Redeemer the Holy One of Israel; The God of the whole earth shall he be called." (Isaiah 54:5) (KJV) And, "For as a young man marrieth a virgin, so shall thy sons marry thee: and as the bridegroom rejoiceth over the bride, so shall thy God rejoice over thee." (Isaiah 62:5) (KJV) God rejoices over us. God delights in us. "He will rejoice over you with singing." (Zephaniah 3:17)

We are the Bride of Christ, which is mentioned a lot in the Bible. Realistically, the Bible is God's love affair with us. Many think Songs of Solomon is the model for marriage. Yes, that's true, but it is also our model for our marriage to Christ.

God always wants to be first! Jesus is supposed to be your first love. "We love because he first loved us." (I John 4:19) Without loving Jesus, you really don't love anyone else the way God intended. God loves you so much he counts the hairs on your head. (Luke 12:17) Jesus really is nuts about you.

But, Jesus wants to be our first love.

"Thou shalt have no other gods before me." (Exodus 20:3) (KJV) And, of course, there are the first of two commandments of Jesus... "Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind." (Matt 22:37) (KJV)

You are supposed to love God with all your heart, all your soul and all your mind. Basically, God wants from us what He does for us. He probably doesn't get it from many Christians, but the few that ventures into actually doing it will reap something few Christians get. There is a fullness of God that he can let us experience and Jesus said he came so we might have life (salvation), and have life more abundantly. (John 10:10) Eternal life you get from salvation. But, abundant life you get from devotion to Jesus. You can never out love God.

But, God said David was a man after His own heart. (1 Sam 13:14; Acts 13:22)

You have to surrender your will to Jesus.

Honestly, I surrendered mine. I remember my devotion and acceptance at being celibate when I prayed something like this, "God, I give myself to you as and devote myself solely to you as your child, Jesus Christ as my husband and the Holy Spirit as my guide in Jesus's mighty name, Amen." The more I draw near to God, the more He'll draw near to me. "Draw near to God and He will draw near to you..." (James 4:8) (NKJV)

I always fought surrendering my will to Jesus. Honestly, I didn't know what that meant. I do wonder what He has in store for me. But, I doubt it is anything terrible. David risked his life a lot to do God's will. But, he was king of Israel and an actual warrior that shed a lot of blood.

About a year ago, God called me to the ministry with a really odd dream. I remember it well. I was in the military and we had these uniforms that was nothing like I had seen. But, I had a special uniform reserved only for me. I got the feeling other soldiers knew I was different. Not in awe of me, but they knew I carried a responsibility few did. I actually think I was the only one that did. Anyway, my job was to fly a plane, which I never saw, deep into enemy territory.

I had told God before I didn't want to pastor, but would be happy to be an Evangelist. I just never thought I'd be a good pastor but love telling others how things work–in this case, how to be a Christian, how to get saved, how to get healed, etc.

Paul actually said, maybe in his opinion, Christians should be single. "For I would that all men were even as I myself. But every man hath his proper gift of God, one after this manner, and another after that." (I Cor. 7:7) (KJV) But, that's not realistic. God did make Adam and Eve and said men should not be alone (Genesis 2:18). Even Paul said you should get married if you "burn with passion" (1 Cor. 7:9), which basically means if you're constantly lusting after everyone that crosses your path, get hitched. A husband can lust after his wife all day long, and a wife can lust after her husband all day long. In fact, aren't they supposed to desire each other sexually?

A little tidbit about marriage: the Husband's contributions makes all the difference. A woman can give and give, but it won't matter that much to a man that isn't giving. But, if the man gives everything, it will make all the difference unless the woman is just plain evil and totally into herself. Guys, God even warns you about such women in Proverbs 7. The warning was about adultery and said, "Her house is a highway to the grave, leading down to the chambers of death." God described her as "Then out came a woman to meet him, dressed like a prostitute and with crafty intent. (She is unruly and defiant, her feet never stay at home; now in the street, now in the squares, at every corner she lurks.)" Such a woman leads a man to ruin. Think Delilah and Sampson. Be wary of the temptress. Her silken words and sinful manners can destroy any man. And, girls, don't be that woman. Guys, look for a virtuous woman, and, girls, be one.

Maybe that's one of the reasons Paul loved singleness.

Men have a harder time with Jesus as Husband than women do. But, there is nothing sexual about it. It basically means, Jesus is your all. He wants to be your everything. He wants to be first in your life. He wants you to fall in a deep love with Him. And, yeah, it does feel romantic. But, it gets even better because Jesus offers unconditional love and acceptance where another human being never can. It should be God, your spouse (if married), your kids, your job, etc. But, honestly, why I told God I'd be His was simple: I really want to see what God has in store for me. I just might get to see things few get to see and experience things few get to experience. Yes, it feels romantic, but it goes deeper. God really wants to satisfy all your needs.

But, Love is our main need.

If God is willing to give us our greatest need, Love, why wouldn't he satisfy all our needs? I believe he does.

Only God can give us Agape Love. That is the deepest love we can ever experience. Agape love is described as the love of God for man and the love of man for God. The depths of God's love really is beyond imagination. But, somehow, we can experience it if we only surrender our will to God, and love Him with all our heart, all our mind and all our soul as Jesus commanded. I definitely have felt temporal love for Jesus. However, temporal love with God will eventually go even deeper. For some, like me, it is the first step into a world I think few people get to go. Honestly, I'm married to Jesus. I made a vow to be celibate for Jesus.

And, you bet your bottom dollar, I want to experience Agape Love to the fullest extent possible. Jesus promised it. "I come that you have life, and have life more abundantly." (John 10:10 paraphrase). Life is salvation. Life more abundantly is that experience of Agape love that St. Theresa called ecstasy. I don't know what she experienced exactly, but I want it. She had the abundant life. To get that, you have to surrender you will, devote yourself, and make Jesus your one and only like she did. I will tell you the closer you get to God, the closer the Holy Spirit will manifest Himself to you. You can feel the tingling and heat of the Spirit from head to toe. There is nothing like the Anointing.

Agape love has changed me. I'm finding I love everybody more and more each day. I want it to get to the point the only thing I see in another person is their soul. Since God is Love, and to love others, God has to love through you, I believe eventually that will happen. My endemic nature might not like it, but I want it. I want to go after God's heart. I don't know what that really means, and I may not get there, but I want it.

Yes, I have my doubts. And, I have my moments of "what the heck am I doing?" But, such thoughts are fleeting. Emotions are fleeting. You can't live life by your emotions because "the heart is desperately wicked." (Jeremiah 17:9) The heart is desperately wicked because it is never satisfied. The heart flows with the wind and is directionless. You basically have to master it. Feelings are wonderful things, but they should never control your life. I think they should be a confirmation of what you think. The heart should be subject to your mind and will not the other way around. The mind and will is the adult and the heart (emotions) is your child. The heart can move you to do things, but you should think it through first.

And, remember this, "love (human) was not meant to last." Pat Benatar sang that line in Shadows of the Night and I've never forgotten it. She also sang "Love is a Battlefield" and we all know how true that is. A soul mate is an extremely rare thing. Even then, that love will fade and has to be constantly nurtured. Human love is a battlefield, as Pat sang. God's love isn't, period. He won't get the seven year itch, or cheat on you, or dump you. God is totally faithful. He'll never leave you nor forsake you. Even Jesus can't say that about God, because God had to turn his back on Him at the Cross. So, Jesus really did take everything for us. He had to become sin itself, which God can't hang with. God's, Jesus's love is never-ending while a human's love eventually has an expiration date. You might be totally in love with someone and a year later have moved on. God never moves on, His love never grows cold, His love never gets stale. God's love is for eternity. And, the way to get more of it is to give it away.

The Godhead really is beyond our comprehension. But, in the end, I have a strange feeling Jesus will be all in one. It's not in the Bible. It's just a strong feeling. God the father will be the soul of Christ, Jesus will be the body and the Holy Spirit will be Jesus's spirit. A little trick to know about the Holy Spirit: He only talks about Jesus. I remember a young teen girl said she saw the Holy Spirit, I have to, and He was a mist, and, every once and awhile His face would form and He looked just like Jesus. So, if you've see Jesus in a vision, you've seen God, too. We just can't comprehend how the Godhead works to understand what our eyes have seen.

C.S. Lewis said there were four loves: Agape, Eros (the sexual he called Venus), Philia (friend, siblings) and Storge (empathy or familiar like how a mom loves their child). Agape is charitable love, unmerited love and from God. But, I think C.S. Lewis had it wrong. All love is from God. At God's core, there is love. I honestly think the other three loves C.S. Lewis describes are really reflections of Agape. We are only capable of really loving anyone through God. Otherwise, we don't.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Four_Loves

Jesus's love for us was stated here as the greatest: "Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends" (John 15:13). What is the greatest love? Sacrifice. If you really love someone, you'll sacrifice for them. And, if you are a husband, you have to be willing to die for your Bride like Jesus, the Husband, did for the Church, His Bride. Jesus is the Husband both corporately (for the church) and individually for each of us.

That's why I devoted my life to God. I don't want a person every getting between me and Jesus. Paul was content there. I can be, too.

God can't leave you; He'll only get sweeter and sweeter!

If you are not a Christian, doesn't this all sound good?

On December 20,1991, I got saved (the second time) in bed with bronchitis. It was a beautiful experience. So, can you! It changed my life forever. The first time I got saved was when I was like 6 and raised my hand during an alter call. God answered, but my mom put my hand down. Nevertheless, God answered my faith then. No one followed up on me and I was 6 so really didn't understand it all.

Do you know Jesus?

Well, it is easy to know him and experience his undying, unfathomable love and affection.

He came and died for you.

"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life." (John 3:16) (KJV)

There is no greater love than Jesus.

"Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends." (John 15:13) (KJV)

Accept Him today if you don't know him.

Sinner's Prayer

"Dear Lord Jesus, I know that I am a sinner, and I ask for Your forgiveness. I believe You died for my sins and rose from the dead. I turn from my sins and invite You to come into my heart and life. I want to trust and follow You as my Lord and Savior."

Now, go and tell someone and welcome to His Kingdom.

Amen and Hallelujah.
