I guess you could say that we're still talking about Phil 2:1 and Heb 12:2. If you would take a good look at the Author and Finisher of our faith, you would see that He spent a good deal of His time talking about the goodness of His Father and the extreme value of His Father's Word. He never praised the devil, He never complained of His circumstances and He always knew the right thing to do. The only thing that angered and/or exasperated Jesus was when people refused to believe His Father's Word and when they taught other's to do the same by their actions.
As I have mentioned in previous blogs, if you desire to fellowship with the Spirit, then you should talk about the things He wants to talk about. You already do this in your daily life. If you really, really want someone to take up some time with you, you begin a conversation about something they have a passion for. Everybody has 'hot' buttons. For some it would be football, for some it may be cooking, for some it could be fishing, but everyone has a 'hot' button. Me? If you want to bring a smile to my face and desire a spirited conversation, ask me something about the books I write. I love my characters, I love the Godly meaning that is instilled in the stories and I love the outcome of the book I am writing now. Just ask me one question and a thirty minute conversation comes blurting out of my heart. BECAUSE IT'S MY PASSION.
Read about God's passion in Dt. 6. He says something that He promises will make us live a long time and give us a mighty increase. His passion is to bless man in every way possible. As you read through the chapter He says things like, "give thee great and goodly cities," " houses full of good things," and "when thou shalt have eaten and be full." That sounds like someone who is excited about blessing you, doesn't it?
What does God say will bring these things. One is to love the Lord with all of your heart, soul and strength. The other it to talk about His Word and not your circumstances. This is why Jesus was able to overcome oppressive forces, work miracles and bless so many lives. His Father's passion became His. He talked about His Father's passion when He prayed. He talked about His Father's passion when He talked to the disciples. He talked about His Father's passion to the crowds. And, He showed His Father's passion when He healed and delivered the multitudes.
Sharing God's passion with Him in fellowship increases the love bond between you. As you continue to fellowship with Him and His Word, the love bond becomes a part of Your lifestyle. That love bond begins to come out in your home life for your children to see. That love bond comes alive where you work, you shop and you worship. Through fellowship with Him, His love begins to manifest through you in healings both physical and emotional.
It is so vital that we learn how to fellowship with Him correctly. This world desperately needs to be taught about the real Jesus in a real way. That comes through constant correct fellowship with Him.
