Summary:

He first loved us. The revelation of that scripture has always provided a drive in His sons to return such a wonderful gift. As we realize that His love must be the very foundation of our lives, a cry begins to come up out of our hearts; Lord, I tie this sacrifice to the horns of Your altar! Show Notes:

• The love of the Father in our midst is the very foundation of the way we love Him.

• The dying out to ourselves is very much involved in coming into the love of the Father.

• He loved us while we were yet sinners. How patient He has been and long suffering because He loves us.

• Out of God’s love for us He revels things to us that need to be changed.

• God’s love must be a revelation to us.

• We must have the love of God in our hearts because human love always fails.

• Christ is being faithful to show us the Father’s love.

• We bind our old nature as a sacrifice to the horns of the altar.

• We are confronted by the love of God and it begins to empty us out of our wrong motivations.

• As we lay down ourselves and our motivations we come to the place of truly loving our brother and serving him.

• The altar of God’s dealings in my life and everything that He takes me through; He is creating something more in my life. That is knowing Him in a greater way.

Quotes:

• The love of the Father manifested in our midst is really what it's all about. It is the root; it's the foundation of everything.

• The real laying down and emptying out of our-self is involved.

• Out of His love, and goodness for us; He shows us where things might not be the way we thought they were.

• The love of God has to be a revelation of His heart to us.

• His love in us never fails. Our love will fail every day of the week.

• I don't believe there can be any walking in the love of the Father, without the continued emptying out of self.

• God is really moving us into this business of knowing the Father's heart through Jesus Christ.

• We know that what He started He will complete unto the day of the Lord, and we just say, “just tie us to the altar to be Your sacrifice.”

• You always think it's done until you find out it's not. And the only way we find out it's not quite done is because the Lord reveals Himself to you.

• Everyone of us have cried, “Lord I want to know Your heart, Father I want to know you.”

• All I can see is, lay down your life for your brother. Pray for your brother and your sister. Serve.

• There's great joy. There's nothing more liberating and freeing than just moving in His love.

If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? Even sinners love those who love them. And if you do good to those who are good to you, what credit is that to you? Even sinners do that.

But love your enemies, do good to them, and lend to them without expecting to get anything back. Then your reward will be great, and you will be children of the Most High, because he is kind to the ungrateful and wicked. Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful.
