Who am I? My relationship with God through prayer.

I am such a being that I need others to go before God's throne on my behalf as well as I go before His throne. (Romans 15:30) Not that anything is impossible for God but because it is an acknowledgement of unity and love of the brotherhood. And when that happens Jesus is in our midst. Not only that but our speech and our walk must demonstrate our love for one another, not just God. (2 Corinthians 2:4) And this includes the brotherhood paying attention when I ask them to forgive each other. (2 Corinthians 2:8) All for the purpose that Christ died for all of us. (2 Corinthians 5:14) and I should not be afraid of trials or whatever comes but know that God is Love completed in His Son and that He will see us through. (2 Corinthians 6:6). I cannot depend on myself, but only on God and He will guide me perfectly.

Teach me to teach that I might learn

 Romans 12:9 speaks of how we should let love disseminate through the universe. Paul tells me there is no love that can discern evil other than God's holy love. It is in that walk that we will show others the result of Christ's sacrificial love and that while throughout His life (not just in dying the way He died) He was a cheerful giver because He saw God in every person He came in contact with, even the Pharisees. And by doing so taught all of us to do the same, to love our enemies as though we were walking hand in hand with God. Romans 13:10 and Luke 10:27 describe this communal love. My neighbor should not have ill done to him, nor should we be envious of one another, nor should we count each other's wrongs. Why? Because the whole world is our neighbor, not just those who think like we do, go to the same church as we do, are from the sane state as we are.

Who is God? All hail the power...

God's love for me is so great, so powerful and yet He wants to open about just how much in love with me He is. He knew me when I was a youth, young and idealistic and willing to follow Him to the ends of the earth. (Jeremiah 2:2) And He yearns for me to return to that, to have that image in my mind of following Him through any kind of disastrous events.

Who is God? All Hail the Power...(part2)

And God delights in me, as in Song of Solomon 7:6. He loves me, so much so that He coverts my time. He loves me as the lover in Song of Solomon 8:6 who pleaded with His loved one to place a seal over her heart. God wants me to seal my heart with His Spirit. And then He tells me I can conquer death. He tells me that love is so powerful not even a mighty flood can destroy it. (Song of Solomon 8:7)
