Welcome to this teaching series „how to“. I am very very excited to share this word
with you, this is a very, very special word
and today many people are going to experience freedom, i am sure of this,
this is going to bless you in such a beautiful way.
I have done a series here called “how to”, it's a very practical series, where
we come with some practical things you can do,
we have talked about how to fast, how to set people free, how to speak in tongues and
many other things and today we are going to continue
and i was not sure, what should i teach about, what is the next thing God you
want me to teach about, so i wrote on facebook the other day: hey guys in this
series “how to” many of you love it out there,
what do you want me to teach about? And i got over 100 different requests of what
people want me to teach about.
One of them the requests who really stood out was “how to love your enemies
and pray for those who persecute you” that word really stood out in a special
way for me and i thought i need to talk about that,
but then i like: hey, there is something first we need to talk about,
because i cannot do a video “how to love your enemy”
if you don't understand this and this is what i'm going to talk about
today and what is that: How to receive God our father's love.
Because if you don't know how to receive the love from god your father,
you will not understand, how to love your enemies,
so this is what we're going to talk about today
and i am so, so excited for this teaching and it's going to set many of you free.
When i said this with, i have some papers here,
why is this important, that we talk about this first?
Because first john 4, 19 is saying this: We love
because he
loved us first or he first loved us. So we are able to love our enemies, we
are able to love other people, because he
first love us. But
if you don't know that you are loved, if you don't understand, what it means to
have a father in heaven, who loves you and how he's a good father,
if that is not settled in your life,
you will never be able to love others in the same way,
so that is why we are talking about this first.
So we love because he loved us first.
When we talk about the love of God, one thing is very, very important and
that is we start the right place and that is that
you need to be born again. If you are not born again,
you will never be able to understand, you never be able to receive, you never
be able to experience
the love of your father. Why?
Because God is actually not your father,
if you are not born again. Yes, he's your creator,
but in that sense he's not your father and we have done a mistake today
talking about the love of our father to people, who are actually not fully born
again and that's why they can never experience
it, they can never receive it, they can never understand it, so first
step you need to be born again. Why?
I'm going to read some verses here to you, so you can understand it.
romans 8,15 and 16, romans 8, 15 and 16. roman 8 is saying this:
The Spirit you receive does not make you slave, so that you will live in
fear again, rather the spirit you receive
brought about your
adoption to son
ship and by he him, the Spirit,
we cry Abba, father.
The spirit himself testify with our spirit that we
are God's children. This is a very very important truth.
So the spirit you received and there i don't talk about you, all of
you who seen this, i'm talking about you, who have received
the Spirit, because it's not
all, who have received the Spirit. I had a time in my life, where i was
trying to pray the lord's prayer: our father, my father who's in heaven, but he
was not my father yet, because i have not yet received the
Spirit, I have not yet been adopted into his
family, i was not yet god's
child, I was God`s creation,
but as we read here: the Spirit you received or when you receive the Holy
Spirit, you receive a Spirit, so you do no longer need to live as a slave in fear
but you receive adoption, it is so beautiful, when you receive the Holy
Spirit, you receive adoption into son ship,
you are now a child of God, a son of God and let's use the word daughter of God
and that is by the Spirit and that spirit is crying out:
abba, father,
roman 8, 16,17 so the spirit is crying out abba father, the spirit is testifying,
that we are Gods what? God's children. This is the spirit of god who's doing it
in us, so that's why it is so important,
before we talk about all of this, that you are born again,
you need to be born again my friend, you need to
make sure, you're born again. Another verse to say exactly the same is
galatians 4, 4-7, we just read that
where is almost a copy of roman 8, i read here:
But when the time was set,
God sent his son, born of a woman, born under the law to redeem those under the
law, that we might receive adoption into sonship, the same word again,
because we are his sons,
i can say daughters also, God has sent
the spirit of his son into our heart
and the spirit is crying out: abba father, the same again,
so we are no longer a slave but God's child
and since we are his child God has also made us an heir.
We, all mankind is God's creation,
but is in the new birth, we are born from above, born again into his family and i
remember that 27 years ago, the Holy Spirit came into my life, 27 years ago my
life got transformed, throwing my eyes closed, i called on jesus and the Holy
Spirit came as a light and went into my Body, I actually fell to the floor
and i lay down the floor and and God gave me a
new heart and my life got changed, but something more happened in that moment,
i got adopted, i got adopted into a new family,
i got a new father,, my father who was in heaven. Before i
could have called him my father in the lord's prayer
as a religious thing, but now he became my father
and not not just something i said, it became a reality in my life and you need
to experience this as a reality in your life, you need to be born again,
it is in the new birth, adoption is taking place,
not before, it is in the new birth sonship,
you become part of the family, a son and daughter is taking place
and it's in the new birth, God's love is poured out in
your heart by the Holy Spirit. Because this is what
we read in romans 5,
5 we read here, that God's love had been
poured out into our heart through the Holy Spirit which had been given to us,
you out there, if you want to receive
the love of God your father, you need to be born again,
you need to be adopted first, before this become a reality in your life,
you need to experience the spirit of God, that is crying out abba father
and by the Spirit the love of God will be poured out in your heart,
so this is the first step,
“how do you get born again”, it's not enough to pray a sinner's prayer, it
could be a good beginning, you need to be fully born again,
you need to turn away from your sins, you need to put your faith in Jesus Christ,
then you need to put off the old man and be baptized in the water into Christ and
you need to receive the Holy Spirit.
I have a video here “how to meet God”, i can put a picture in here i put a link
in the description with this video, go and see
the video for all of you, who are not born again,
see this video, because the next step
we need to take, after we are born again, is very, very important also and that is
you need to renew your mind. But if you're not born again,
you don't need to renew your mind, that's the first thing,
that is not your next step. Because if you're not born again, you can
try to renew your mind as much as you can, but it will never help you, you need
a new birth, you need to be born again, you need the
adoption, you need the Spirit of God inside of you, before that you are
creation of God, but you are not a son of God, you're not a daughter of God,
but for rest of us you, who see this video, who are already
fully born again and have received the gift of the Holy Spirit, hallelujah, you
are now born into God's family, you are now adopted, you have received a Spirit,
that is crying out abba father, but that is not enough for many of us,
we need to renew our mind,
to be able to understand it, what does it mean,
when he said that we are child of God,
what does it mean when we say that God is our father, what does it mean, when the
bible says, that he loves us. So that is the next step
for you to receive the love.
We have a big problem and the problem is that
the word: father, the problem is
our earthly father, this is the only thing, when i say father
to you,
when we hear the word father, we only have one father
we know about and that is our earthly father
and that is a big problem, because we automatically think,
that this father, the new father, we have got
is similar to the old father we had,
but he's not, not at all and therefore we need to
understand it and we need to start to renew our mind, put it there,
the bible says: do not be conformed to this world but be transformed by the
renewing of your mind, so there is a transformation that need to happen in our
life for us to receive and also understand, that we have a father in
heaven, who loves us. And
i want to look at this with our, the problem is our earthly father,
i don't know how your earthly father was,
i can tell you, how my father earthly father was, he was a good man,
but there was a problem: in my life, when i grew up,
my father worked a lot, he worked early morning before i woke up, he worked early
night after i went to bed, he worked, worked, worked, worked. Why? Because
he had his own painting company, he had people
working for him and he was busy, busy, busy, busy, busy, he was a good guy, but i
just didn't know him,
like that, Why? Because he was working all the time
and when i grew up, it was like, i needed when i remember, i called home and if he
was home at one time and i called and my father took the telephone:
hey dad, where's mom? and Can I talk with mom? That was my line with him
in the telephone. When he took it: hey, it's me, can i talk
to mom? Hey, can i talk to mom? Hey, can i talk mom? Why? Because everything, that had
to do with my life, everything, if i had to play with somebody and come
home late or i need help, anything it was always: hey dad,
i need to talk with mom, and i just i can say, i really didn't
know him, because he was working.
I was close to my mom, but when i was 16 years old, my mom got
a stroke and she became handicapped and paralyzed
and lost her voice for a time and she changed big time.
Later, when he started to speak again, she was still handicapped,
everything changed, because now i could not talk with my mom, i could
not ask her for things, i could not, she had no idea, what was going on anymore
and suddenly the role needed to change so if i called home and my mom took the
telephone: hey mom, is dad there?
And it was special for me to see, how those roles changed
and i started in a year, 16 years old actually needed to get to
know my father,
he had always been my father, but i did not know him,
it was first, when i was 16, i really started to get to know him more
and i really came to like him,
but it took some time. He was always there,
but i really didn't know him and this is the problem with many of us,
who have a earthly father but also with our father who's in heaven,
he's there on the paper, we know he's there, but do we really know him
and how were your earthly father? i don't know, how he was, but for some people
their earthly father, when they think father,
father, what do they associate that word
father with? This associated with the earthly father
and for some people their earthly father was a guy who was
harsh, hard man,
a guy, who was not loving,
that is what they associate their father with,
maybe you're one of them, maybe you associate the word father with somebody,
who really doesn't care
or somebody who's too busy, that is, where i was
or maybe you associate your father with somebody, who is
not present, he's just not there,
somebody, who left you left you and your mom
or maybe you associate your father with somebody who
cannot be trusted, somebody who's unfaithful,
and you have been hurt, because your father was unfaithful to your mum
or you saw, he was cheating in other areas and he cannot be trusted
or maybe your earthly father is somebody, who was weak,
he was there, but he was really not there, he was weak and he was helpless,
he could not take charge and he could really not do something
for you and your family.
These are some of the areas, where people see their earthly father,
this is some of the experience they have and maybe you're one of those,
who have experienced like this and every time you hear the word father,
you think of somebody, who's hart, not loving, somebody who's not present or
left you, somebody who couldn't be trusted, unfaithful, somebody, who doesn't
care, too busy or somebody, who was weak and helpless
and then we have a problem and the problem is, that how you looked
at your earthly father is how you automatically
look at your heavenly father. You're not aware of it maybe,
but is associated with the word father, so when you hear father,
you automatically think a hard man, who is not loving,
so when you look at God, you have this human image,
God , he's a hard father,
who's not loving or if you grew up not present,
your earthly father was not present, he left you,
or he couldn't be trusted or unfaithful
or he doesn't care, he's too busy,
when you then get born again and receive the spirit,
somehow you know, that God is your father, but
can he be trusted?
Is he really faithful? Or will he suddenly leave us?
Does he really care? Is he able to help us?
and you do a big, big mistake, that you
draw God your father in heaven down on an earthly level
and make him similar to your
experience with your father here on earth
and that is a big, big mistake. Listen here
Luke 11, 13 jesus is saying:
If you then, you who are evil
know how to give good gifts to your children
how much more
will your heavily father give the Spirit to those, who will ask him.
There's so much truth here, Jesus said: when you,
and you point at us, who are evil
knows how to give good gifts to your children
and i think most fathers even they have a
lot of mistakes and a lot of things are still have been able to also do good and
give good gifts for example to their children,
but then he said, how much more
will your heavenly father. So he is making a big, big difference
between the earthly father and the heavenly
father, the earthly father, who is evil, you, who are evil, the earthly father,
no matter how good you are, no matter how much you can even give
good gifts to your children, you are still evil,
if you, who are evil, can give good gift to your children, how much more,
when your heavenly father then not
do this and this and this and this and this and this and this and this and this
and this and this and this gift, give the Spirit to those, who ask him.
So he's making a difference, you down here, heavenly father up here, but what do
we do? We take heavenly father who is so much more,
so much more what? We are going to look
at that and then we draw him down here on earth
and make him something he's not,
we take our heavenly father who's so much perfect
and make him something else, we're going to look at that. So jesus
said here: when you who are evil can do good things, how much more
when then your heavenly father not do this and this and this?
So we're going to look at that, we're going to look at how our heavenly
father is
understanding what kind of father he is,
this is so, so important, you need to understand this,
we put it here in the middle, i actually put this out here,
no, i put it here, we can still see it in
galatians there is a verse here:
But the fruit of the spirit is in galatians 5, 22, for the fruit of the
spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness,
goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.
These are the fruits of the spirit in galatians 5, 22.
We, you and me, who are
evil compared to there's only one good,
God is good, only one, Jesus said that,
but we, when we get born again, we can be full of the spirit
and we can be so full of the Spirit, that we in time can walk
full of the Spirit, where we walk full of love,
full of joy, full of peace, full of peace and patience, and so on, we can walk in
that and we are called to walk in that, but even us, who are full of the spirit,
we will never be able to really walk in the hundred percent fullness
of god's love, joy, peace,
we can taste it and there should be an example and i would look at myself full
of the Spirit, i am full of love, i am full of joy, i'm full of peace and that is the
testimony of my life, it doesn't mean, that there cannot be times, where i am
sadly not as full of it as i want to be and me as a earthly father, there is time,
where i don't have that full love, full joy, full peace, full kindness,
why? Because i am not perfect, not yet, in Christ, there is a way to live it, but
it's not always that we are full of the Spirit, we need to continue being full of
the Spirit, and it's a continued work
but God, Spirit of Christ or the Spirit of
God, the Holy Spirit, who is bringing all of that,
shows, who God our father is
and God our father is full of all of this
all the time, every moment, every day,
all of it, so how is God your father?
he is full of love, we have a father in heaven,
who's not like the father on earth, but a father in heaven, who is always
full of love, always full of love,
we have a father in heaven
who's always full of joy,
always full of joy, not like our earthly father where we can
experience, that one day the love doesn't seem like he
doesn't care, he doesn't love us, our earthly father were suddenly, he's very hard and
very angry and you don't know, how he is, what move, mood he's in that day,
we have a god, hallelujah, that is full of love,
we have a God in heaven, that's full of joy,
we have a god in heaven, a father in heaven
that is full of peace, maybe you grew up in a home,
where there was no peace, no love,
no joy , you need to
renew your mind, you need to understand that the father you now
have received, the family you have been adopted into, their father in the house,
he's not like the father you knew he on earth,
he's a father that is full of love,
he's a father that is full of joy, he's a father that is full of peace,
and it is amazing to live in a home with a father like that,
we also have a father who is full of patience,
maybe your father did not have a lot of patience with you,
maybe he became angry and if you just did one little mistake,
he exploded
and you think that the heavenly father is like this,
if that is you: repent! don't think like that,
because we have a heavenly father that is full of patience,
we have a heavenly father that is full of kindness,
hallelujah,
try to imagine having a home like this, with a father you come in
and you meet the father in the home and that is just love, joy, peace, patience, and
kindness , can you imagine that?
you should, because this is what we are now,
this is how god our father is, this is how you should look at him
and if you in many ways look at your father like some of this instead like oh
he God, my father doesn't care he's hard, he's not loving and and he
left us and he really doesn't, i cannot trust him,
you have done that mistake, that you have drawn God your father down on a
human level
and make him something, he's not, this is who God is,
and he's full of goodness, God, our father is full of goodness,
he's also full of faithfulness, he can't be trusted,
he can be trusted, he is
faithful, he's full of it,
God our father is full of gentleness,
he's a gentle guy, don't be afrai,
to be honest and go to him and and get to know him,
he's a gentle guy, and when you
really get to know God, you experience this,
this is how words i will put on my father, who is in
heaven, because this is who he is.
And he's full of self control, full of self-control, maybe you
grew up with a father, where you did not know when he will explode, if you said
one thing wrong, if you did something wrong, if there was things, you forgot,
suddenly he will explode in anger and he would destroy it all, because he couldn't
control himself, this is not, how God is
or maybe you grew up with a father, who was drinking
and every time he was drunk, he just lost his self-control,
you have a father, who's in heaven who is full of self-control,
this is how God our father is,
the problem, we have done, the problem i would say,
many people out there have done, is this: that we have dropped,
we have dropped God down to a human level,
if that is you: repent,
repent, repent,
repent, repent,
drop it, don't look
as God your father like that, take everything you have from your
understanding of your earthly father,
take those bad experience, with him being hard and not loving and
doesn't care and too busy and not present and left you
and cannot be trusted, unfaithful or weak or helpless,
all of this have nothing,
absolutely nothing to do with,
with your new father, who's in heaven,
don't make God your father, who's in heaven,
don't make him something he's not!
Jesus said: you, who are evil, how much more
will your heavenly father not give those,
who ask him,
that father you have received, when you are being adopted into the family,
he is full of the fruit of the spirit
galatians 5,20, he's full of love,
he's full of joy, he's full of peace,
he's full of patience, he's full of goodness,
kindness, faithfulness,
he's full of gentleness, he's full of self-control,
and so much more and this is how you need to
experience it i had a time, when i met God,
when the Holy Spirit came into my life, it changed everything, i was born again,
the spirit shouted out abba, father, but i did the mistake many people do,
he was my father, but in the beginning, he was distance,
he was a father, but
he was a father, i did not really draw into,
why? Because i thought, he was busy,
he had so much more he needed to do and
like my father, he was too busy for me with the small company he had
and if my father was too busy for me, how much busy would
that father not be?
And my father was distance in my life,
he was not somebody i went to talk to about different things,
it was all my mom, who was taking care of it,
but what happened: one day i just understood, that i have
sinned, i understood, that i have made God some
God, my father, somebody he's not,
i have done this mistake, that i have drawn God,
who is full of all of this, who's perfect down and make him like my father
and that is a sin,
so i repented. I said: God forgive me,
forgive me for my sins, you are my father,
and you are full of love, you are full of joy,
you are full of peace, you are full of all of it,
you are present in my life, you care,
you love me, you want me, you adopted me, you have time for me, i can trust you, you
are there, and i repented,
and i asked God to forgive me, and i start to really renew my mind
to understand, that this is, who he is
and it just changed everything and it became a reality in my life
and this is my relationship now with my father, this is, who my father, who's in
heaven is,
so i want to pray with all of you out there,
i want to say to all of you here in the end first:
How do we receive God our father's love?
First you need to be born again, you need to be born again,
have you not be born again see the video i told about,
there's a link in the description with this video,
go in, see it, reach out to us, reach out to people on the tlr map.com,
green marker near you, find him, make sure you are fully born again,
make sure you receive the new life, the new birth, the Holy Spirit,
so the Spirit can cry out abba father where you have sonship,
you have adoption, you are adopted into God's family,
he you can now say my father, we together can say our father,
jesus is our brother, we got many brothers and sisters,
Jesus was the firstborn, but we came after and we are now there,
hallelujah, but after you're born again,
think of this: Take time and look at it and say: whoa,
have i done this mistake like many other people have done?
Can i say with confidence,
that my father who's in heaven he's full of love, joy, peace, patience,
kindness, goodness, self-control, and so on.
Can i say with confident that my father he's not a harsh man,
that he's loving,
that he's present in my life? Can i say that my father who's in heaven
he really loves me, because he cares,
my father who is in heaven, he can be trusted,
he can be trusted. Can i say
that he is not too busy, that he really want me?
Can i say all of those things about God or your father or can you not?
If you are holding on to some of those things, when it comes to understanding
who God your father is and this is your reality,
instead of this down here:
repent! ask God to forgive you!
And then i will pray for you and then let this word just go in and take the
scripture then and just quote it again and again,
speak it over yourself and speak it about your father and let God your
father start by his Holy Spirit to renew your mind,
so this become a reality in your life! it will change your life, it will give
you everything and you will start to be transformed
yourself into the image of your father! Let me pray for you!
God, i pray for everyone out there, who's seeing this,
i pray for them, who are first not born again yet, God, that you come with your
Holy Spirit you convince them and you help them God
to find the truth in you, you help them to find people can guide them, who can
share the gospel to them, God, who can sit down with them, who can lead them through
repentance and baptism water and receiving the Holy Spirit, God,
God, I pray for those people, who are not born again that they
may be born again, God, that they may be adopted, God, into your family, that they
also will get sonship as i and many of us here have received it, God, that you
will pour out your love in their heart by the Holy Spirit,
the Spirit, that is crying out abba father and I also pray for those, who are born
again, but
have drawn you down, God, and make you somebody you are not,
that you, they make you,
our father, who is perfect, who is full of love, full of peace,
full of joy, full of goodness, full of kindness,
that's full of all of it that they make you
somebody else, that they make you a hard man,
a man that can a father, that cannot be trusted,
a father, who do not really care, a father, who is too busy, a father, who
have left them and don't want them, oh God, i pray for them, that they will
repent, repent for it right now.
Ask God where you are to forgive you! Say God,
my father, who's in heaven, father, i ask you to forgive me,
