Leviticus chapter 21. This chapter describes some of the requirements for holiness for My priests. Priests come near to Me. They serve Me personally. They had interactions with Me. They came into My Presence.
If they came into My Presence after defiling themselves, they would immediately be destroyed. Those requirements were not meant to be restrictions from a distant cold and angry god, as some think. No, those requirements were a gift of Mercy. Those who misunderstood do so because they do not know Me. If I am complete holiness, I am complete purity . . . I am pure fire. Therefore, anyone with any hint of impurity or imperfection who came into My Presence would be destroyed by My substance. Imperfection cannot exist near Me. It is impossible. This is why I called you to separate yourself from the world. This is why I had to send a part of Myself, My purity in the form of My Son, to die for you. I want you to be near Me at all times, Pearl.
Notice that the priests could not marry an impure wife. Those who were divorced or were not virgins when they married were not eligible to become wives of priests. Because I made a special covenant with you, Little Pearl, Jesus can now be your Priest and Husband. He is your High Priest Who prays for you and offered Himself as a sacrifice for you. He is your Husband Who covers you, teaches you, shapes you into His own image, so that you can come near to Me without being destroyed. Now you do not need to be afraid of My fire or My holiness. You have returned to your original soul-state. You can now approach My throne as a cleansed bride of My Son; a bride who is without spot or wrinkle or anything that represents imperfection. Don’t be afraid of My Enormity and Power. Don’t be afraid of My Blinding Light. For you, Little Pearl, My Enormity, Power, and Light mean the inexhaustible supply, force, and beauty of My Love for you.
Not so for those who reject a real relationship with Jesus. They do have reason to fear. To them I Am enormous, powerful, and blinding alone. They cannot experience My Love while rejecting My Provision for cleansing.
I want to come running to Me and enjoy the Enormity, the Power, and Light of My Love for you. Enjoy the Holiness that your Priest and Husband provide you. Be secure in Our Love and your holiness. Bask in My Love like a child enjoys playing with his good father. Enjoy the fact that as your Husband, He also purifies you and makes you completely holy. You do not need to be protected from My Presence any longer. Now I eagerly cry out to you, “Come to Me, My Pearl! Come into My Presence. You not only will survive being in My Presence, you will THRIVE in My Presence. You will be more full of life than you thought possible. You will feel like you are breathing and seeing for the first time. You will know Pure Love and security for the first time ever. Swim in the river of My Love, Little Pearl. Yes, that is possible while you are still on Earth. Just begin to focus on Me in your spirit. You are now holy. The more time you spend with Me, the more you will embrace your holiness, and the less enticing sin will be to you. Draw near to Me, Little Pearl, without fear- thanks to your Priest Husband. I will draw near to you. Come for the hug of your life!
