The Manifestation of God's Love
"The manifestation of God’s love is when we realize that everything we need is in Him."
~ Dr. Kevin L. Zadai
“If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also; and from now on, you know Him and have seen Him.” Philip said to Him, “Lord, show us the Father, and it is sufficient for us.” Jesus said to him, “Have I been with you so long, and yet you have not known Me, Philip? He who has seen Me has seen the Father; so how can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father in Me?
The words that I speak to you I do not speak on My own authority; but the
Father who dwells in Me does the works. Believe Me that I am in the Father and the Father in Me, or else believe Me for the sake of the works themselves. “Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father. And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask anything in My name, I will do it.”
John 14:7-14
DISCUSSION:
Because God loves us, He trusts us, and He allows us to do the works of Jesus and even greater works than that. Jesus said that you can ask the Father anything in His name, and He will honor it to glorify the Son. The manifestation of God’s love is when we realize that everything we need is in Him. God is love, and it drives out fear. Even if you still have physical needs and financial needs, God’s love causes fear to leave. The manifestation of God’s love is Jesus, and He will come through, and we do not have to doubt.
We have been made complete in His love. God loves us so much that He has made way for us to come directly to Him for that love. It is not just through Jesus that we know the Father. We have come to the Father through Jesus, but Jesus was essentially saying that there was coming a time when you will ask the Father directly in Jesus’ name and that you won't have to come to Him anymore. He was telling the disciples that there's coming a time where you can just go to the Father yourself and that was because He was going to ascend on high. He ascended, and now we have direct access to God.
John 16:23-24 NIV: “In that day you will no longer ask me anything. Very truly I tell you, my Father will give you whatever you ask in my name. Until now you have not asked for anything in my name. Ask and you will receive, and your joy will be complete.”
OUR IDENTITY AND GREATER WORKS
John 15:13: “Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends.”
Our expression of love towards others comes from God, but if we ourselves do not feel loved by God, how will we release the kingdom? Part of the greater works we do has to come from our identity, which needs to be renewed by the Word of God. You receive the love of God by the revelation of what Jesus did for you. He loved you and chose you. You did not choose Him. Jesus trusts that you will do even greater works than He did, and He tells you that you can ask anything in His name, and He will do it. (see John 16:23).
Jesus has taken care of the sin problem in your life and destroyed the power of it. Just as God has loved us, we ought to love others who might be powerless in their situation. His love enables us to love and help others. The way others see Jesus is through us. God wants us to know Him and the depth of His love for us. The way we receive His love is from a spiritual revelation and not from a mental standpoint. We accept God’s love and say, “yes,” even though we may not comprehend what He did for us. When we say yes to God and want to know, it permits God to show us. Love transcends beyond words.
* Jesus expressed the love the Father has for you by dying on the cross.
He died for His friends, and He is the manifestation of God’s love.
Jesus died so that you can do even greater works than He did.
* The next manifestation of His love is the Ministry of Jesus continuing through us to people, and the salvation message of the Gospel going forth.
* Jesus is still healing and even preaching the year of Jubilee. He’s canceling debt, and the case against you is closed.

* There is no condemnation now for those who are in Christ Jesus. You can walk in the Spirit now and not fulfill the lusts of the flesh. (see Romans 8:1-2).
* Jesus, the pure, spotless Lamb, says that I love Him because He first loved me (see 1 John 4:19-21). He had so much confidence in the love that He expressed on the cross that He loved us first when we were still powerless.
* Jesus can trust us to ask anything in His name, and He will fulfill it. He is not afraid of what we ask for because the incorruptible seed of the Word of God is in us.
* We are more than able to do what He left us in charge of because of His confidence in what He did for us. The confidence of knowing your Father God’s character and how He is going to respond reassures us and brings us to want to fulfill everything that God has put in our hearts to do. We can’t do the greater works and love others if we first don’t feel loved by our Father God. How are we going to release the kingdom if we don’t even know that God loves us?
* Our identity needs to be renewed in Him. John the Baptist knew who he was. He said, “I am the one Jesus loves.” We have to have the attitude of John and live loved. Stay in the atmosphere of His presence and then love others from that place.
1 John 4:7-11 (KJV): “Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God, and everyone that loveth is born of God and knoweth God. He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love. In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him. Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins. Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another.”
I experienced the love of the Father when I was with Jesus. We just looked into each other's eyes as we were in the Father's heart. There were no words. Jesus kind of knew what I was going through. I remember thinking the only way that anybody on the earth would get what I just encountered was if I took a piece of that room and brought it to the Earth because there were no words. It was beyond the ability to communicate it with words. It had to be experienced; as an encounter or an impartation of reality. It is so important to carry His presence and then impart it to others. We need to show people that God is real and that spiritual impartation is real. We have to get to a place where we know that nothing can be against us because God is for us, and we know our enemies are scattered when God shows up.
After you watch the video and read the study notes on this page, answer these questions here on the Blog mentioned above:
1. Discuss how you are the ones on the earth who will love people and display Jesus. When praying for others, pray as though you are praying about your problems with the same intensity.
2. What is it about the Spirit that He may want to say, but He can’t because there is some type of blockage?
3. Discuss saying “Yes,” even if we might not fully comprehend what He did for us. It opens up and gives God permission to love us beyond comprehension because His love transcends further than words.
4. Discuss encountering God, carrying His presence, and imparting it to others.
