"For thy Maker is thine husband; the Lord of hosts is his name; and thy Redeemer the Holy One of Israel; The God of the whole earth shall he be called." (Isaiah 54:5)
I've always wanted a husband. I didn't want sex, I wanted love. Like all women, I wanted to be chosen. The Bible says, "many are called, few are chosen." (Matthew 22:14) In the parable leading up to that Scripture, there's a man discovered not to have a wedding garment even though he's at the wedding feast. (Matthew 22:12) The king has his hands and feet bound and casts him into the outer darkness where there is weeping and gnashing of teeth, which represents hell. (Matthew 22:13) Then, Matthew 22:14 basically says, Jesus calls many, but few are chosen.

There is also the parable about the seed: "Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit." (John 12:24) (KJV) Basically, if you want life, you have to die to self and if you love the world (Satan's Kingdom), you won't have life. The "world" is sin.
Honestly, has Satan ever done anything for you? He hasn't done a thing for anyone. He HATES YOU! He comes only to kill, steal and destroy you. Unlike Satan, Jesus comes that we may have life and have life more abundantly. (John 10:10)
Jesus calls everyone to repentance, but only a few are chosen. Many love the world and don't want to give it up and die to self so they can have eternity, eternal life. But, a few are chosen and they will die to self, reject the world and get eternal life.
"A double minded man is unstable in all his ways." (James 1:8) (KJV) Being double-minded is one foot in the church and the other foot in the world. And, there are the lukewarm Christians who are never hot and never cold. Nothing moves them. They have no fire, they have no passion. I say the are double-minded. Lukewarm people aren't change agents or good soldiers, they just do what they do to get by. They are adrift at sea and move whichever way the wind blows. Jesus hates this. We are to be his servants, even though he values us more than that as Brides.
And, lukewarm is not enough.
Jesus wants you hot, or cold. “I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot; I wish that you were cold or hot. So because you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I will vomit you out of My mouth” (Revelation 3:15-16). If you are lukewarm, complacent and just there, or double-minded, you have no value and He'll spew you out of his mouth. Jesus wants you all in and for Him, or against Him.

I love a hot coffee and I love a ice cold soda. Don't you? How about a hot tea? A lukewarm coffee is disgusting. I'm sure I could drink an ice cold coffee. But, what do you do with a coffee that is lukewarm? You stick in the microwave and make it piping hot again. You don't drink and spew it out of your mouth.
Jesus wants sheep that go forth and conquer in His glorious name. And, we are more than conquerors. "Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us." (Romans 8:35-37) (KJV) Jesus love is always with us even in trials, tribulation, persecution, famine, peril or sword. Satan can kill the body, but He can't touch our soul. Only God can destroy the soul and cast someone into hell. "And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell." (Matthew 10:28) (KJV)
In all my years of searching, I wanted a Husband. Don't all women? I never thought my Husband would be Jesus and Jesus alone. I thought I'd marry someone and have that kind of life. Instead, God had other plans, called me to be a Nun (nuns are married to God and no other). I'm a transgender woman, but I'm a nun. I have a husband, His name is Jesus. You can have all I have, too. If you are male and not really sure you can love Jesus as a bride loves a husband, think of Him as King. God understands that. Jesus is a dude. Most dudes don't like to think of a guy as their Husband (no sex involved), even though Jesus clearly is that. He's cool with the King thing since He's the King of kings.
But, even if you are a guy, I challenge you to think of Jesus as your Husband. There's no sexual thing to it. And, hey, there is no gender in heaven. We'll all be Brides there.
"Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart." (Psalms 37:4) (KJV) I delight in Jesus, God and the Holy Spirit. I love all three. I thought my desire was for a lover, and I ended getting the King and kings and Lord of lords as a Husband.
"For thy Maker is thine husband; the LORD of hosts is his name; and thy Redeemer the Holy One of Israel; The God of the whole earth shall he be called." (Isaiah 54:5) (KJV)
My life changed when Jesus called me Rachel in a dream. A few months later, I dedicated myself to God solely (I was already saved) and promised there would be no other. I dedicated myself as a nun and the rest is history. I have no desire for an earthly lover. None at all. And, you know what? Jesus gets sweeter by the day, as a Husband should. And, if you need sex like I do as a hypersexual Bipolar, there's an Anointing for that. Best sex ever for me just by myself. I ain't kidding. He said He'd supply all my needs. (Phillipians 4:19) I called Him on that one. Hehe (Note: Just ask God for Anointed sex. If you're married, He can bless you both there, too. Just be open to it and ask Him for it. If you're single, it's Holy masturbation. It's why I wear glasses. LOLOLOLOL)
Just be all-in and not sitting on the fence. Basically, don't be lukewarm. Be passionate about what you believe. Jesus has passion. He wants passion. I love Him passionately. Yes, I feel romantic love toward God. No, He demands passion. Luckily, I'm Bipolar, which means I'm either hot or cold. I don't know lukewarm. LOL I'm either all-in, or I couldn't care less about something. Yeah, I have days when there's no fire. The Anointing is always there, but those are days of rest where I just rest in the arms of Jesus, my Husband. Otherwise, I want to conquer the world so I have lots of crowns to lay at my Husband's feet one day. Those crowns, except the crown of life, aren't for us to adorn ourselves with. They are given to us that earn them by being obedient vessels for the Holy Spirit to lay at Jesus's feet at the marriage supper.
Honestly, I want to be a woman after God's own heart. David was that. I'm definitely in love with Him. If I get there, I'll be a happy girl and a happy nun.
Do you know Jesus?
Well, it is easy to know him and experience his undying, unfathomable love and affection.
He came and died for you.
"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life." (John 3:16) (KJV)
There is no greater love than Jesus.
"Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends." (John 15:13) (KJV)
Accept Him today if you don't know him.
Sinner's Prayer
"Dear Lord Jesus, I know that I am a sinner, and I ask for Your forgiveness. I believe You died for my sins and rose from the dead. I turn from my sins and invite You to come into my heart and life. I want to trust and follow You as my Lord and Savior."
Now, go and tell someone and welcome to His Kingdom.
The Holy Spirit Baptism is a gift. Just pray, "God, I accept the Holy Spirit as a gift and welcome Him into my being. Thank and praise you Jesus for the Holy Spirit."
Amen and Hallelujah.
