Beloved, LOVE is in the air.
As we celebrate Valentine’s Day tomorrow, there will be many expressions of romantic love with flowers and chocolates and love songs as well.
Everyone surely has their own LOVE language. So I ask you, “What is your love language?” Or better still, “What language do you speak?”
This morning as I awoke, I heard the melody of a very old romantic song from a war movie “Love is A Many Splendored Thing”.
As I pondered the words of the song in my heart, The LORD said, “My Love is a Many Splendored Thing.
It has many beautiful expressions in your life. The splendors of My Love are beauty, holiness and humility.
My Eyes are searching for those who carry the beauty of My Compassion that fails not as they turn the other cheek in humility and be willing to go the extra mile to demonstrate that love never ends,” says the one who is LOVE.
“I AM searching for those who love Me with their whole heart, for they are marked by their uncommon hunger for Me alone.
The praise of men will fade away and many times even in one day, but my love is reaching out to cheer you on as your actions reflect my presence in you,” says The Father.
“David was a man after my heart when he cried out to me, “Search me, O God, and know my heart: Try me and know my anxious thoughts” (Psalms 139:23).
It is My Desire that My People live a life of repentance daily, so that nothing hinders our relationship. So always remember, the gift of repentance is a wonderful privilege that enables you to operate with a clean, pure heart,” says The LORD.
“Cleansing is a process that continues a lifetime.”

For quite some time, I have meditated on Love and the manifestations of it “in the world” or lack of it in the world and the church as I read what God has revealed to us in 1 Corinthians 13.
“Love is large and incredibly patient. Love is gentle and consistently kind to all. It refuses to be jealous when blessing comes to someone else. Love does not brag about one’s achievements nor inflate its own importance. Love does not traffic in shame and disrespect, nor selfishly seek its own honor. Love is not easily irritated or quick to take offense. Love joyfully celebrates honesty and finds no delight in what is wrong. Love is a safe place of shelter, for it never stops believing the best for others. Love never takes failure as defeat, for it never gives up. Love never stops loving. It extends beyond the gift of prophecy, which eventually fades away. It is more enduring than tongues, which will one day fall silent. Love remains long after words of knowledge are forgotten. Our present knowledge and our prophecies are but partial, but when love’s perfection arrives, the partial will fade away. When I was a child, I spoke about childish matters, for I saw things like a child and reasoned like a child. But the day came when I matured, and I set aside my childish ways. For now we see but a faint reflection of riddles and mysteries as though reflected in a mirror, but one day we will see face-to-face. My understanding is incomplete now, but one day I will understand everything, just as everything about me has been fully understood. Until then, there are three things that remain: faith, hope, and love—yet love surpasses them all. So above all else, let love be the beautiful prize for which you run.” 1 Corinthians 13:4-13 TPT.
As I reflect on what The LORD just spoke about hunger for him, I am reminded of something that Dr. Dan Allender said in his book, “Bold Love” regarding repentance that I would like to pass on to you to think about.
He said,
“Repentance involves facing the homelessness of my heart that says: ‘I am lost and helpless and hungry, and I will not find rest in my own power. Repentance is more-much more than seeing that I am hungry and alone. It is embracing the reality of how deeply I deserve something far more terrible.”
My take from that is simply when we face the reality of God’s Goodness and Compassion and the light of His Holiness, we are humbled and transformed by His Grace.
As I continued to meditate on the Power of Love, The LORD said, “Perfect love casts out fear.
In this present time, many changes shall be emerging, and My Perfect Love shall cast out the spirit of fear that has paralyzed so many who are called to minister in this hour.
Many prayer warriors are experiencing breakthrough in disarming and defeating the enemy and I AM continuing to open their eyes to see the unseen with deeper discernment as we continue to advance The Kingdom among the attacks of the hordes of hell in this hour,” says The LORD.
“This is the time to hear My Voice with clarity and be My Voice with boldness, for I AM putting My Words in the mouths of My Intercessors, and I AM ready to perform My Word as they release them in power believing,” says The LORD of Glory.
Many mornings I begin my worship singing and dancing to “These are the Days of Elijah” and I am immediately quickened that, “We are in those days….”
We shall see the healing of the three generations as they come together to take their places, “For revival is taking place as I AM reviving My Chosen Ones one at a time as I prepare them to carry My Glory in the next Revival.
That Revival will comprise the Revived Ones who were asleep — but awakening is here and some were afraid, but Deliverance is happening now, in My Presence, as they are being filled with Joy and The Fear of The LORD.
These are the days of great trial of famine and darkness and sword, and I say to you these are the days when righteousness is being restored,” says the Father.
These are the Days of Elijah…
“For the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of The LORD, as the waters cover the sea.” Habakkuh 2:14.
I began to understand more fully that the glory of The LORD is in me and this scripture says the KNOWLEDGE of the Glory of The LORD shall fill the earth.
As I lifted that us to The LORD for more understanding, He said, “Daughter, the Knowledge of My Glory shall fill the earth and then through My People reflecting The Glory, it shall fill the whole earth,” says The LORD of Glory.
