Daily Bread - December 1, 2004

But Jesus said unto her, Let the children first be filled: for it is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it unto the dogs. And she answered and said unto him, Yes, Lord: yet the dogs under the table eat of the children's crumbs.

The Language of Love Is Without Hypocrisy, and Counterfeit Love Is Revealed by Double Standards

I am the way, the truth, and the life. If you walk in me, the truth and life shall be yours. You are made free, and life more abundantly has abounded to you. I have given you my spirit and shed my love abroad in your heart. The way to love is manifested in your heart. Follow after my love, and your faith will be worked by the love of God and not after the way of man. My love is exempt from decay and corruption. It is pure and filled with integrity and honesty. The wholeness of my love is entire and not lacking in any area. My love is not adulterated, for it is genuine. Hear the language of my love today, and know that it is understood in every speech. The language of my love brings a new confidence to those who have lost assurance because of the darkness of trouble in the world. My expression will lead the way in the restoration of broken relationships. I have called you friend. Now you go, and make friends. Many speak a foreign language, a language not comprehended by others. Their verbal communication is not understood, for their actions are confusing. The language of love is without hypocrisy. I have sent you into the world to be a model of my love, not a model of power. The model of love is not a paradigm of one receiving but of one giving. I loved the world and gave my only begotten son. How can the world know you are of me, if you don't give your best?

Your love is corrupt if you present the world with a prototype of selfish love. My love is the first of its kind. The world does not know the love of God outside of the love of Jesus Christ. If any man has not the spirit of Christ, he is not mine. I have put my spirit in you so that you may show the world true love. Hide me no longer behind your veil of insincerity. Your double standards are a stench in my eyes and nostrils. This disgusting odor is a shame to anyone called by the name of Jesus. Will you be two-faced and represent me?

There is a high price to be paid for buying into hypocrisy. It tastes good to the flesh, but it is costly in the end. I hate double standards. Will you masquerade this form of love in my presence and survive the law of sowing and reaping?

I have not sent deceivers into the world, and I will not tolerate insincerity. Insincerity is artificial and plastic. The world will never be reached by those bearing double standards, for I will not dwell among them. Open your mouth, cry aloud, and make known the truth of my love and have no part with this dishonesty. I told Abram to walk before me and be perfect. I have also said unto my church, "Be perfect as your Father in heaven is perfect." You will continue to manifest powerless ministries that are filled with many words and no Godly signs if you persist in double standards.

Amos 3: 7 - 8

Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets. The lion hath roared, who will not fear? The Lord GOD hath spoken, who can but prophesy?
