In this day it is essential that we know and believe the love God has for us, as we read in 1 John 4:16. Otherwise, we become overwhelmed by the increasing lawlessness in the world, and we find our love growing cold. The Kingdom is God’s love. And we can only minister His love to others when we know His love for us personally.

Yeshua (Jesus) said, “Because lawlessness is increased, most people’s love will grow cold.” Already we see this happening with people as they react to the increasing lawlessness around them. The fact is that we are affected by the spirit realm. And as we watch all the negativity happening in the world, we have to take care that we are not drawn into the same spirit.

Yeshua directly tied the increase in lawlessness to people losing their love. Satan knows this and brings all the lawlessness and wickedness because they generate a force in direct opposition to what Christ is trying to impart to us, which is His mind that has the capacity to know the love of God. As His Son, Yeshua knew the love the Father had for Him, and He came to impart the knowledge of that love to us as individuals.

We need to come into the knowledge of the Father’s love for us because Christ is sending us into the world for the same purpose that He came. It is not to do signs and wonders. It is not to perform healings. It is not to speak living words. It is to impart the love of the Father into the lives of people. But you cannot impart what you do not have. The greatest preparation you can do right now to carry out the will of God in the earth is to become aware of His love for you personally.

Key Verses:

• Matthew 24:12–14. “Because lawlessness is increased, most people’s love will grow cold.”
• 1 John 4:7–13. “The one who does not love does not know God, for God is love.”
• 1 John 4:14–16. “We have come to know and have believed the love which God has for us.”
• Ephesians 3:16–19. “Know the love of Christ which surpasses knowledge.”
• 1 Corinthians 2:16. “We have the mind of Christ.”
• Romans 12:2. “Be transformed by the renewing of your mind.”
• John 15:9–13. “Just as the Father has loved Me, I have also loved you; abide in My love.”

Quotes:

• “Everything that’s going to happen in the bringing forth of the Kingdom between now and the manifestation of it in the earth is born out of love.”
• “The spirits that are taking over this age right now have a purpose. And that is to block the knowledge of love. It is to remove love from the hearts of humanity.”
• “If we can come to know this love that God has for us individually, we can be filled up to the fullness of Him, to the fullness of that love.”

Takeaways:

• When we see everything happening in the earth, our immediate tendency is to be caught up in the negative. But it is not for us to relate to what is going on from a negative perspective. It is simply a matter of shifting our focus and awareness to God’s presence.
• Yeshua had the awareness of God’s love for Him personally, and He functioned out of the knowledge and the understanding of that love. And Christ came to bring the knowledge of that love to us as individuals.
• Why is satan bringing all this lawlessness and wickedness and this increase of evil? Because if he does that, then the love of people grows cold. The wickedness is in direct opposition to what Christ is trying to impart to us, which is His mind that has the capacity to know the love of God.
• As humans we struggle with knowing the love that God has for us. That is why we need this impartation of the mind of Christ that is beyond human knowledge or human ability to understand.
