Father's Heart III

The Father's Plan Revealed.

Jn17:25 , Jn17:11, Matt6:5-15 -Jesus refers to God as the Father.
Mark 14:25-36 - At the most crucial time, Jesus cried to His ABBA
Jn1:1-2 - Jesus' life is all about His relationship with His Father
Jn1:18 , Jn 6:38-40 - He is found in His Father's bosom, in intimacy
Heb1:3 - He came to fulfill His Father's will, to reveal the Father and His heart
Jn5:19 , Jn 8:28, Luke 22:46 - Jesus is completely dependent on the Father
Jn 12:27 - we need God to open up heaven and tell us we are His sons
Jn 14:28 ,Jn 13:1-5 - Jesus knows who He was and it is His security in God that He is able to wash the disciples feet

KNOWING WHO WE ARE WILL GIVE US THE FREEDOM TO SERVE !!!

Jn 14:6 , 1 Cor15:24-28
-
the right hand of God is Jesus ; the left hand of God is the Holy Spirit and both hands draw us to the bosom of the Father

Jn16:26-27 - God wants us to come directly to Him

Jn14:23 , Heb 2:10-12 , Jn 17:25, Jn 20:17
-Jesus is the first born- the Big brother goes before us. It is about the Family:- the Father who sent His Perfect Son to bring us all back to Him

John 17:3- ....and this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God and Jesus Christ whom You have sent....
(
eternal life means unending life -not a destination!....it is knowing God in intimacy, more and more living in the Father's heart. It is NOW and not where)

Everything that Jesus did was an expression of His Father's heart
2Cor 1:21-22 -
do you feel that the Spirit of God is in us as a deposit guaranteeing us our inheritance?
Gal 20:20 , Col 2:9 , Jn 3:16 -
revelation of the Father's heart. He wants us to know Him

thoughts : in the book of revelation , it talks about God wiping away our tears...but there's not suppose to be any tears in heaven....- could it be that the Father was 'serving' the Bride and the Groom and this brought tears??? how wonderful is the thought- that He would love us so so very much :o)
