“The caretakers of the Lord’s vineyard will have the privilege and reward of bringing to Him the abundance of fruit from the maturing lives of those they shepherd. Precious fruit will come forth and be gathered to the Lord from the multitudes. As God gives the increase, the faithful labors of many will bear fruit.”

“With His friend, Moses, God spoke “face to face” (Num. 12:8). But in the Hebrew language it says, ‘mouth to mouth.’ God spoke to Moses ‘mouth to mouth!’ This is the Kiss of His Word to our spirits. It is the longing of the soul to be united to the Word of God.”

“the Holy Spirit is saying to you today, “I love you even in your brokenness and weakness. You are my beloved child. I was the One who kissed Adam and made him into a living soul. My kiss upon your heart will give you the love you seek. I will not abandon you the next time you fail. I am yours for all time and for all eternity.”

“We must discover the glorious, completing love of God. If you are single, you do not have to find a mate to discover love. If you are in a difficult, unfulfilled marriage, you do not have to go outside the boundaries to discover love. If you are a known sinner who has struggled with disgraceful habits and thoughts– there is a love waiting for you that will sweep you off your feet. It comes to us like a kiss from heaven. There are places in your heart that will only be healed by Divine romance. So run into Abba’s arms today and abandon your self to Him!”

“Listen to Jesus when he says: ‘Just let me love you. Don’t try to re-negotiate your relationship with Me every time you fail. Come before Me just as you are. Call yourself My favorite, the one I love! I have made none other like I have made you. I love you endlessly, passionately– in your best moments and in your not-so-best moments. You really are my personality type. I have made you to be My friend.”

“It seems so unrealistic that the uncreated God loves us so deeply and is ravished by our gaze! The God of heaven actually seeks voluntary lovers, not trembling slaves. Jesus wants your hand in marriage… male or female; for we are all a part of the Bride of Christ. Walls that keep us from intimacy must come down. We can no longer hide behind a wall of our ugly and demeaning feelings about ourselves.   Jesus sees in you a suitable companion that will flood His heart with joy for all eternity. Fill your mind with the truth of how God sees you. Others will always judge you by your greatest weakness. God sees the glory of His Son shining in you.”

“Your Creator knows that true transformation comes by a relationship— a powerful relationship with Christ where love’s torrent covers our sin and makes us lovely in His sight. Just as relationships in the past had the power to wound and scar our souls, downloading lies into our thinking, so a passionate pursuit of the Bridegroom holds the key for the deepest level of change in our personalities.   Jesus does not come to scare us into submission, but to woo us into friendship with Him. God delivered His transforming truth and the grace for change in a relational package; the person of His Son. Grace has a face; and His face is smiling.”

“The Divine Kiss is metaphor that speaks of sacred intimacy with Jesus Christ. The most powerful gift God can to the human spirit is His “kiss.” Kisses from God impart the deepest things that could ever be given to the human spirit. This “kiss” is the answer of why we are on the earth. The Lord kissed Adam and he became a living soul and we come alive again by this kiss of God.”
