IT ALL START WITH LOVE

The Love that goes Beyond Borders: Meet, Listen, Incline Together and fulfill the moment. Pt 3

In the first writing of this title, it speaks about the Love that goes beyond borders. We live in breadth (width), length, height, and depth. A relational dimension means the nature and quality of the relationships that have developed through a history of interaction and plays out in behavioral attributes such as trustworthiness and most of all heart. Hereby a beautiful testimony from Father Almighty.

Here is a testimony of such love that God, touches our hearts touch us and it is such an overflow of love that pours down from heaven. As of yesterday, I have a visitor in my house, in my family we have always been taught to help each other. My cousin from Father’s side is staying at my house and I heard the most touching and heartwarming story from her. Two days ago she had a problem with her car. She loves her car and will not give up on it, therefore she will buy all the pieces to replace it as it starts to break down. She has this wonderful friend who helps her, his name is Jay(F. Mercado). Jay works for the city of Miami-Dade County Fleet Fueling and Vehicle Maintenance Department. He is the sweetest person I have ever met, he is always helping my cousin out in every situation. As she sat down yesterday she said…you really want to hear this testimony: Her car broke down and ended up pushing it to the gas station. She said: It was such a blessed day, as she pushed there was a young adult who helped her to the 7 eleven gas station. She called everybody and somehow nobody answered. God has a way to confirm prayers, especially for people looking after you in their prayers … Alone in the gas station, suddenly a gentleman approached her and started to help her, looking to see if he could help fix the car. There was nothing that could be done, as the computer of the car was broken. He was a total gentleman sent from above, accompanying my cousin from 8pm to 11:30pm on the day of his birthday refusing to leave by herself. She was on  441 and Riverland Rd. During this period of waiting until the towing car came to pick her up. they had a long conversation, which I, in my heart think is just a marvel from heaven, how God touches people and places earth angels and heavenly angels to oversee you. This gentleman’s name is Mark Thomas, my cousin was worried because it was his birthday and he was waiting with her. This man had gone through so much in his life.  Such a wonder to know that Jesus Christ is with us all the time. He testified the transformational dimension of Christ in us, he had gone through such medical procedures, he was a victim of a horrific car accident and his family was in fear that he was not going to make it. Through several medical procedures, He was brought back by Father Almighty. God had given him a second chance to be on this earth, and from then he made a vow to help others selflessly. He decided to take care of all my cousin’s towing expenses and stayed until the end. A vocational dimension where Father Almighty is preparing each one of us, he is touching our hearts and making use of our gifts, skills, and talents in order to gain purpose, happiness, and enrichment in our life. Christ through us, his image reflected in how we behave, in what we do, and how we see others helping. It is amazing to see that, touching one’s heart, it leaves in such a state of shock to find that people still exist that are unselfish by helping and extending a hand to others. It is amazing how people go beyond to help especially now in this time. She today also had another extended happen at another gas station. Here is to say no matter who you are, where you are from or what you do, what domination, religion, social, or political there are people who are out there that help because God has touched their hearts. Love that goes Beyond Borders: We Meet people, We  Listen mutually, We Incline Together and We definitely fulfill the moment, our purpose because Father Almighty has his way. Such wisdom creates this beautiful understanding, It provides this immense fortitude, and opens our compassion bringing blessings both ways.

Love  As love is the highest expression of God and His relation to mankind, so it must be the highest expression of man’s relation to his Maker and to his fellow-man

It goes beyond: at or to a greater distance or more to meet, to come into the presence. It creates an opening that even though there is faith, there are times that you need to hear the testimonies either to refresh or even be acquainted with Father Almighty and sometimes he just places the place to come together Such a gift given to my cousin in these days, as tears came down trying to solve the problem of her beloved car. Material, yes material. But she has had her car for 12 years, maintained it as she loves her car by buying new pieces every time and having a person like Jay, it is in that moment these we realize that he not only helps people from the county and serves to give maintenance to officers car but also, to do the work through his heart from Miami to Sunrise…quite a drive. And, when rescue was needed on that particular day Father placed Mark Thomas to help all the way. Thank you, Mark, for testifying such a beautiful story of your accident and helping my cousin Patricia make it home safely. For the time being, she will be staying at my home until she finds the computer to repair her car.

To end this story for Patricia Barreiro, and the three Gentlemen, A third gentleman today another earthly angel from her building confirming, testifying, and trying to resolve some issues from her Building. I am thankful to the Fire Rescuers of Sunrise as they notified the City, which has been notified for some time about the elevators in the community where she lives in. A person had to pass away recently to find out that the elevator was not working in her community, a senior community. It is sad to see how people who have retired, and older people live, there are people who can’t even mobilize down because the stairs or even a balcony has to fall off for it to be repaired.  A roof where water falls into some apartments from the 4th floor even though it has been fixed. I was pondering in my mind there are people who are good and people who are not, there are people who create stories, even perverted  people doing weird things around here, there are people who creates stories and have people listen to their idiosyncrasy, and those who share selflessly for the better good. I love the covenant law covenant which is fundamentally a promise, a vow. In the case of God with human beings, it is a promise or oath that is unilateral—it is freely given and established by God. It is all in our mind which direction to follow, in our heart to do good, in our soul to transform and help others within our capacity and his will in Jesus’ name. Today is the start of our group vigil prayer, 7 days as it came down by Father’s revelation, a time of need to unite and elevate our clamor for all and especially this world 

The word for today: The ladder (or staircase) is symbolic of the connection between HEAVEN and EARTH. It represents progress, ascension, and spiritual passage through the levels of initiation. In the Bible, Jacob’s ladder established contact between man and God, and there are seven rungs on the ladder of virtue.

Today the trees the Dogwood, Dogwood it is said to carry the marks of Jesus’ crucifixion. Its four large petals represent the cross he died upon, and each petal displays four red-tinged notches that are said to represent four nail holes. The other tree is the Sandalwood, on a spiritual level, sandalwood supports the experience of inner unity of mind, body, and spirit; awareness of inner soul life, enhancement of higher consciousness and related creativity, relaxation of the conscious mind, meditation, prayer and spiritual practice, peace, and acceptance. Since ancient times, sandalwood has symbolized spirituality and spiritual devotion. The wood of this tree has been used in prayers and offerings to the divine. 

The animal for today is the Pelican: “There is no question the Pelican is a symbol for focus, persistence, and self-initiation with style and flair too. In nature and spiritual realms, Pelicans value community and teamwork. They fish in groups, creating strong cooperative bonds for the benefit of the whole.” “The pelican was believed to pierce its own breast with its beak and feed its young of its blood. It became a symbol of Christ sacrificing himself for a man – and because of this was frequently represented in Christian art.”

The fullness of God’s divine nature, to dwell in his life, the fullness in relation to his gift of salvation’s noted in Romans 15:29 

From the Bible

Deuteronomy 8:3-5 MSG

8 1-5 Keep and live out the entire commandment that I’m commanding you today so that you’ll live and prosper and enter and own the land that God promised to your ancestors. Remember every road that God led you on for those forty years in the wilderness, pushing you to your limits, testing you so that he would know what you were made of, whether you would keep his commandments or not. He put you through hard times. He made you go hungry. Then he fed you with manna, something neither you nor your parents knew anything about, so you would learn that men and women don’t live by bread only; we live by every word that comes from God’s mouth. Your clothes didn’t wear out and your feet didn’t blister those forty years. You learned deep in your heart that God disciplines you in the same ways a father disciplines his child.

Luke 1:45 NIV “45 Blessed is she who has believed that the Lord would fulfill his promises to her!””

Hebrews 13:16 ESV “16 Do not neglect to do good and to share what you have, for such sacrifices are pleasing to God.”

Matthew 5:11-12 NIV “11 “Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. 12 Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.”

Galatians 3-4

New International Version

Faith or Works of the Law

3 You foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you? Before your very eyes Jesus Christ was clearly portrayed as crucified. 2 I would like to learn just one thing from you: Did you receive the Spirit by the works of the law, or by believing what you heard? 3 Are you so foolish? After beginning by means of the Spirit, are you now trying to finish by means of the flesh?[a] 4 Have you experienced[b] so much in vain—if it really was in vain? 5 So again I ask, does God give you his Spirit and work miracles among you by the works of the law, or by your believing what you heard? 6 So also Abraham “believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness.”[c]

7 Understand, then, that those who have faith are children of Abraham. 8 Scripture foresaw that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, and announced the gospel in advance to Abraham: “All nations will be blessed through you.”[d] 9 So those who rely on faith are blessed along with Abraham, the man of faith.

10 For all who rely on the works of the law are under a curse, as it is written: “Cursed is everyone who does not continue to do everything written in the Book of the Law.”[e] 11 Clearly no one who relies on the law is justified before God, because “the righteous will live by faith.”[f] 12 The law is not based on faith; on the contrary, it says, “The person who does these things will live by them.”[g] 13 Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us, for it is written: “Cursed is everyone who is hung on a pole.”[h] 14 He redeemed us in order that the blessing given to Abraham might come to the Gentiles through Christ Jesus, so that by faith we might receive the promise of the Spirit.

The Law and the Promise

15 Brothers and sisters, let me take an example from everyday life. Just as no one can set aside or add to a human covenant that has been duly established, so it is in this case. 16 The promises were spoken to Abraham and to his seed. Scripture does not say “and to seeds,” meaning many people, but “and to your seed,”[i] meaning one person, who is Christ. 17 What I mean is this: The law, introduced 430 years later, does not set aside the covenant previously established by God and thus do away with the promise. 18 For if the inheritance depends on the law, then it no longer depends on the promise; but God in his grace gave it to Abraham through a promise.

19 Why, then, was the law given at all? It was added because of transgressions until the Seed to whom the promise referred had come. The law was given through angels and entrusted to a mediator. 20 A mediator, however, implies more than one party; but God is one.

21 Is the law, therefore, opposed to the promises of God? Absolutely not! For if a law had been given that could impart life, then righteousness would certainly have come by the law. 22 But Scripture has locked up everything under the control of sin, so that what was promised, being given through faith in Jesus Christ, might be given to those who believe.

Children of God

23 Before the coming of this faith,[j] we were held in custody under the law, locked up until the faith that was to come would be revealed. 24 So the law was our guardian until Christ came that we might be justified by faith. 25 Now that this faith has come, we are no longer under a guardian.

26 So in Christ Jesus you are all children of God through faith, 27 for all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. 28 There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. 29 If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.

Galatians 3-4

“4 What I am saying is that as long as an heir is underage, he is no different from a slave, although he owns the whole estate. 2 The heir is subject to guardians and trustees until the time set by his father. 3 So also, when we were underage, we were in slavery under the elemental spiritual forces[k] of the world. 4 But when the set time had fully come, God sent his Son, born of a woman, born under the law, 5 to redeem those under the law, that we might receive adoption to sonship.[l] 6 Because you are his sons, God sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, the Spirit who calls out, “Abba,[m] Father.” 7 So you are no longer a slave, but God’s child; and since you are his child, God has made you also an heir.

Paul’s Concern for the Galatians

8 Formerly, when you did not know God, you were slaves to those who by nature are not gods. 9 But now that you know God—or rather are known by God—how is it that you are turning back to those weak and miserable forces[n]? Do you wish to be enslaved by them all over again? 10 You are observing special days and months and seasons and years! 11 I fear for you, that somehow I have wasted my efforts on you.

12 I plead with you, brothers and sisters, become like me, for I became like you. You did me no wrong. 13 As you know, it was because of an illness that I first preached the gospel to you, 14 and even though my illness was a trial to you, you did not treat me with contempt or scorn. Instead, you welcomed me as if I were an angel of God, as if I were Christ Jesus himself. 15 Where, then, is your blessing of me now? I can testify that, if you could have done so, you would have torn out your eyes and given them to me. 16 Have I now become your enemy by telling you the truth?

17 Those people are zealous to win you over, but for no good. What they want is to alienate you from us, so that you may have zeal for them. 18 It is fine to be zealous, provided the purpose is good, and to be so always, not just when I am with you. 19 My dear children, for whom I am again in the pains of childbirth until Christ is formed in you, 20 how I wish I could be with you now and change my tone, because I am perplexed about you!”
