The Fabric of His Love

On the morning of 3rd March 2003 (03-03-03) that is 8 years ago today. I recalled today I had set the day aside to pray and fast with many in the global church. That morning as I was writing an email I was suddenly overwhelmed with presense of the Holy Spirit. It was like hot oil just downloaded from the ceiling, filling me filling me filling me. The rest of the day I was in awe and wonder of Gods desire to be pursued by us and how he longs to connect with us in a very tangible way. I have posted below the article I wrote after I was drawn into this beautiful unexpected vision something that was a relatively new thing for me. One thing I know for sure, I am now always longing to experience Gods presense more than any encounter I know like I did that day. 

My prayer today is Lord release the fullness of your love again in my heart, that I may know you more and more, and connect with you, and be with you, and dine with you, and laugh with you, and cry with you.......... more Lord... More for the Global church let your Kingly reign flow from our lives...that your kingdom will come on earth as it is in heavan.  I love you so much My Jesus My saviour x...

'FABRIC OF HIS LOVE'

I suddenly became aware of the fullness of the love of God it was so strong in me it was like hot oil. It was light and strong. Then I began to see along white roll of fabric and I sensed this represented the love of God. As I looked at the roll I knew it was on an endless roll and extended to eternity. The cloth was white and soft but also strong. I knew that as I followed the roll of fabric there were many more colours woven into this fabric. In fact, the Holy Spirit told me it was 'The fabric of his Love'. The other colours that I knew were there were purples, yellows, greens, and reds, the colours of the rainbow.

Even though I could only see the fabric as white, I was certain these colours were somewhat hidden. I then became aware that the spectrum of light is made up of the colours of the rainbow. And the word of God says 'God is Light' and 'God is Love.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


I then asked the Lord to show me this in his word. I went to my Strongs concordance and looked for fabric but it wasn’t there! So I looked for love and followed it through the OT and NT searching into those scriptures that caught my eye. I looked up Colossians 2v2 (AMP) and felt that this was getting close.

'[For my concerns is] that their hearts may be braced (comforted, cheered and encouraged) as they are KNITTED TOGETHER IN LOVE, that they may come to have all abounding wealth and blessings of assured conviction, of understanding, and that they may become progressively more intimately acquainted with and may know more definitely and accurately and thoroughly the mystic secret of God. [which is] Christ (the Anointed One): Col 2v2 AMP

Then I came across my Message Bible and had the thoughts 'look up the fabric in the message Col 2v2' .  As I opened it up and read my heart was leaping as I read the words

'I WANT YOU WOVEN INTO THE TAPESTRY OF MY LOVE, in touch with everything there is to know of God. then you will have minds confident and at rest, focussed on Christ, God's great mystery. All the richest treasures of wisdom and knowledge are embedded in that mystery and nowhere else. And we've been shown the mystery! .  .......'(Message Bible: Col 2v2).

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

He is still showing me more RE- 'He sees UNITY IN DIVERSITY': that’s how Christ longs for his body (true church- Christian vessels) to be seen by the world. He loves our diversity, we don’t all have to look white and pure to be part of the tapestry: We ARE white and pure in his love as we come together with all our idiosyncrasies. If one of the colours of the spectrum of light are missing we no longer have a pure white light. Just like when I saw the roll of white fabric, I could only see the white and not the other colours yet I knew they
were there, they were hidden in the overall fabric: LOVE. This is how the light of Christ also shines and reaches the darkest of places. I believe he was showing me that his light and his love are inseparable: when we shine his light, we show his love and visa versa.

When I got to work on Wednesday 05-03-03. I checked my email and had one from a brother at work RE- PRAYERS AND FASTING ON 03-03-03! It was sent on 28th February 2003 but i only opened it that moment.  The email had three recommendations for prayer themes from 'Pray Today' put forward by Ted Haggard,
Rick Ridings and Chuck Pierce. Here is the part of Ted Haggard’s request that caused my spirit to leap.  PRAYERFOCUS: .....Pray that this date, rather than being a focal point of darkness, will be overwhelmed by the light of God through the worldwide prayers of his people. When I read this prayer focus I knew that this was the Lord confirming that I had experienced the morning of 03-03-03 when I felt his love so strongly.

On 03-03-03 Gods love and light reached like a white fabric over the whole of the world as brothers and sisters of all colours, nations, economical and social background etc, came together to seek his face. We represented the Lord as a pure love as all our differences were hidden...His body on that day was shining globally in this dark world and covering it with the 'Fabric of his Love'
