“Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth”
1 Timothy 2:4 (AMP)
You created me before the foundation of the world, long before I could utter a word. My existence is the apple of your eye, making sure I make it in the right line. Pleading for every crossroads and ambition; you have given me the power of choice not to perish. Henceforth, you did not want me to consume the abomination of this world as a “quick fix”, of life survival and disappointments. Thus, in the beginning, we were in the garden, connected with the spiritual umbilical cords that nurtured my existence. I soon realized that you are the power source, that gives strength to the synergy of your love and compassion for me. Your dedication, your poise, and endless pursuit towards me kept me steady until I was “ready”. In the unconditional truth, you gave me dominion over it all, wishing for me to stay and connect with you, knowing that in your presence there is fullness of joy. (Psalm 16: 11 AMP) But I was deceived, blinded by the unknown detriment of this world. The greed pulled me closer to this particular tree that was forbidden despite all that you have given me. I gaze at it, whining to devour it and enjoy every sweet of it; since it was the forbidden fruit. Not making sense of what I would wrap myself into. I let my heart get tongue twisted by the lies of the impostor, Lucifer. I surrendered at the notion of seeking the “knowledge of good and evil” to be like God, as the serpent whispered very closely to my heart (Genesis 3: 5 AMP). So I choose to follow his deceitful ways and take the fruit from the knowledge of good and evil. The truth was twisted, drifting me away from your presence. So the robber appeared to steal, kill, and destroy what you created in me. (John 10:10) BUT you called me “chosen” from your royal priesthood, and led me out of darkness, into your marvelous light (1 Peter 2:9 AMP) that I may have life abundantly. Once again, your promises kept on unveiling your unconditional truth. Removing the desolation of fear by replacing it with the undeserved love of yours. You made a way for me to live and know your truth and stay above the drowning waters of condemnation (Romans 8:1 AMP). Despite the deserted path of my life, you provided the source of water that I may never thirst again.( John 4:13-14 AMP). Because I went to the well, seeking the unconditional truth of your everlasting mercies. You are my genesis, You are the reason why I exist. YOU claimed back what is rightfully yours, for all souls belong to you (Ezekiel, 18:4 AMP). Like a good good father, you could not bear to see me fall. So you removed my veil to see your unconditional truth of your promises. NOW Your HOLY SPIRIT lives in me as a consuming fire, burning all the unwanted crust, to set me free “daily”. Cleaning me as white as snow removing every lash of transgressions. Therefore, I can dance in your presence, freely running down the walls of Jericho as I proclaim “Victory”. At last, I salute my fellow believers for choosing You instead of what this world has to offer. There is nothing impossible unto God (Luke 1:37 AMP). FOR He elected YOU before the foundation of this world to experience his unconditional truth; that He still loves you! No matter the issue. You still have time to make the choice, to come to the understanding and the knowledge of the truth ( 1 Timothy 2:4 AMP).
I hope this poetic segment speaks to you and that you allow God to work in your heart and fulfill his perfect will. God’s love never fails and he has chosen you to fellowship in his presence.
