EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

+       An "open heaven" simply means that there is nothing hindering Me from pouring Myself and My blessing out in the midst of My faithful and obedient ones.

        ...."Turn to my reproof, behold, I will pour out My Spirit on you; I will make My words known to you".... Proverbs 1:23 NASB

+       The exercising of "fear" ALWAYS manifests in "control" [manipulation] in some form - with a view to maintaining one's "own" agenda. The exercising of love [faith and obedience] ALWAYS says and does [in the power of My Spirit - Who is the Spirit of Love] what is for the greatest benefit [well-being] of those in their sphere of existence [at all cost to oneself] - with a view to the one[s] being ministered to entering into and fulfilling the fullness of their precious destiny, in Christ.

        ...."For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind".... 2 Timothy 1:7 KJV

        ...."This is My commandment, that you love one another, just as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this, that one lay down his life for his friends".... John 15:12-13 NASB
