The Divine Purpose of Creation

Your shape, your form, your destiny depend upon your choice… to cling to yourself or to yield to me.

Meditation Thought: “You make known to me the path of life; you will fill me with joy in your presence, with eternal pleasures at your right hand.” (Psalm 16:11)

“Love is the healer; love is the joy; love is the pleasure – love, love, love. Love is the elixir – the potion – the only one needed to right every wrong, heal every hurt, fill every heart with peace. My love I pour in unbounding, unending supply – wherever the willing heart, the open mind, the yielding will absorbs it – there is a soul transformed.

Jesus the Christ – see Him, obey His instructions and your knowledge of My love, your ingesting of My love, your renewal by My love fulfills the divine purpose of creation: My love flowing out, your love flowing back, freely given, joyously give, loyally given. The continuous stream of love purifies all who enter into it, cleanses the sin of rebellion and all the sins resulting from that sin. Increase the flow of the stream of love by reaching for more and more of My love to channel back to Me.

Seed the clouds of My love with the Word, the Son, the Spirit within you: the replacing of the parts in you which are rebellious, sinful, unrighteous and unloving – selfish and ego-controlled, with the Word, the Son and the Spirit is the act of seeding My love – releasing it in torrents which will overflow the banks of your life. I want you to replace everything that your free will rejected of Me with My image clearly stamped on every part of you, and every aspect of your life. But I will not force this replacement. You must hand to me, whether willingly or reluctantly, every facet of your life, and I will return it to you – purified by the blood of Jesus, glowing with My love, enriched by the Spirit. Your shape, your form, your destiny depend upon your choice… t0 cling to yourself or to yield to me, bit by bit, moment by moment every physical, spiritual, mental and emotional aspect of your life. Hear and understand, see and perceive, understand with your heart, that I may heal you.”

You Shall Become More

You are My beloved… do not distort all I meant for you to be…

Meditation Thought: “…and you will be like God…” (Genesis 3:5 – serpent said to Eve)

“You are My beloved – but you are not Me – nor shall you become more than a reflection of my ways. And you shall be a beautiful reflection if you will obey and not distort all I meant for you to be by being disobedient and seeking knowledge of evil – for you have no capability of combating evil – only I have that. When you err, call upon My power to take evil from you – but if you will make very effort to seek My will your energies will be directed to releasing My power in a positive movement to fulfill My commandment, and you will not be misdirecting My power to combat evil needlessly.

Stop, look, listen for My directions and let not Satan tempt you into obeying himself. Put on your armor and wield your sword of faith to bring the glory of victory.”

Holiday-Happy

Meditation Thought: “This is the day that the Lord has made;
    let us rejoice and be glad in it.” (Psalm 118:24)

Treat every day as if it is one you have long been anticipating – a special day of a particularly happy occasion. Adopt a holiday-happy attitude, no matter what activities you are doing.

Grateful

For you see, as I cannot, what lies ahead along each path.

Meditation Thought: “Let us come into his presence with thanksgiving;” (Psalm 95:2)

“Thank you” definition: You helped me. I appreciate your effort and your willingness to care about me and to acknowledge my needs, and to help me in fulfilling those needs. Our relationship is enhanced and intensified because of this involvement. This exchange has made a difference in some way in the direction we are going, and therefore is important to us and to those whom we influence.

Suggested prayer: Dear Lord, so far above and beyond me in scope – but so approachable and understanding as we meet: thank you, thank you, for all creation, for my creation, and for your provisions. Help me to yield to You in grace when I see that I am not following your path chosen for me. For you see, as I cannot, what lies ahead along each path. Intensify Your Word throughout every area in my life, making it permeate my mind, my will, my intentions, my emotions and my actions, that the beauty of Your love, mercy and power might be released in me and through me ever more effectively, in the realm of the spirit, in the realm of the world, in the realm of the Kingdom which contains these two realms. Help me to be not only a ‘good’ steward, but an enlightened, perceptive, effective steward who, through every thought, every word and every deed, reflects Your will and Your goodness and the Love with which You rule.

Guide me Father, that I may open my mind and my heart to receive Your truth and wisdom, and to reflect them in every possible way by obedience to Your will.

Amen.

Always Victory

…transcending time, transcending space, conquering the armies of evil, and banishing them to the furthermost corners.

Meditation Thought: “Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that in the Lord your labor is not in vain.” (1 Corinthians 15:58)

“Be consecrated to Me and be purified to be all I need you to be:
to one person you are confessor,
to another – nurse,
to another – faith,
to another – food,
to another – peace,
to another – maid,
to another – teacher,
to another – child,
to another – friend,
to another – spirit,
to another – priest,
to another – enlightenment,
to another – student.
Moment by moment, the Spirit transforms your mind, your body, your thoughts and your actions to be Me in the world, transcending time, transcending space, conquering the armies of evil, and banishing them to the furthermost corners.

Victory, victory – through obedience to the Father Creator – always victory.

Christmas Every Day

Meditation Thought: “Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms.” (1 Peter 4:10)

Make every day Christmas – giving your gifts in happy anticipation of the recipient’s joy – and receiving in the glow of the love that is part of the gift.

God gives us spiritual gifts – gifts we can then give; and yet still retain. Gifts such as the gift of encouragement or the gift of teaching (see Romans 12:4-9 for a more complete list). Gifts that are like Christmas every day – because they point back to Christ and his love for us.

God has offered each one of us the gift of eternal life with Him, and it is available to every one who will open it.

Renewable Wisdom

Where is wisdom? Where is strength?

Meditation Thought: “Wisdom gives strength to the wise man” (Ecclesiastes 7:19)

“Where is wisdom? In My Word. Where is strength? In My Word. All you who seek wisdom, seek My Word. The strength of 10 armies shall be at your side, the wisdom of a Solomon shall be in your mind, the words of a disciple shall be on your lips. Oh, take heed and know that I am God.”

Job Requirements: Humility and Willingness

I will direct you and move you and fill you.

Meditation Thought: “Saul, also known as Paul, was filled with the Holy Spirit.” (Acts 13:9)

“Hear and obey, my child (mentally insert your name here), for I would use you to establish My Name on earth as it is in heaven. Be humble and willing – no other requirement do I need, for I will direct you and move you and fill you as the container, mobile and sturdy, to bring nourishment to the hungry, drink to the thirsty, hope to the desperate. Those who need you care not about your appearance or your method; they desire only the fulfilling of their needs: the provisions for body, the inspiration and hope needed to sustain the soul. Be My vehicle of mercy and provision, letting Me guide you where you are most needed to lavish My loving ministries through your own unique properties and capacity.”

A Position of Wisdom

When we recognize that we are far better off with He who is infinitely better qualified directing our lives than we would be to direct them ourselves, we have moved from the position of foolishness to that of wisdom.

Meditation Thought: “I know that everything God does will endure forever; nothing can be added to it and nothing taken from it.” (Ecclesiastes 3:14)

It is to God’s delight, and to our own self-interest, to perceive the truth of the fact that God is the ruler of the Kingdom, and though as a citizen we have numerous privileges and rights, we do not have a right to replace Him as ruler at any place at any time. When we recognize that we are far better off with He who is infinitely better qualified directing our lives than we would be to direct them ourselves, we have moved from the position of foolishness to that of wisdom.

It is this position of wisdom (yielded to God’s direction) that was created for us, and is always available to us, if we are preceptive enough to seek it. The true value of it, however, is not seen until we have sought it, have not only recognized that it is the position we should seek, but have fought every obstacle which would keep us from it, including our own inner freedom of choice.

Heavenly Physics

By this rope can I make a little movement in heaven, and swing you in great arcs to My work on earth. Only if you have firm hold of your end of the rope will this maneuver work!

Meditation Thought: “To the person who pleases him, God gives wisdom, knowledge and joy.” (Ecclesiastes 2:26)

A message perceived from God the Father:
There is a connecting rope being woven between us that grows stronger with each strand that is added: each word of praise, each obedient act, each loving ministry, each trusting thought takes a strand from My storehouse of spiritual building materials and weaves it into the rope.

By this rope can I make a little movement in heaven, and swing you in great arcs to My work on earth. Only if you have firm hold of your end of the rope will this maneuver work! If you take your hands off, and are distracted into using your hands in pursuits Satan would tempt you to, the rope dangles uselessly. You must keep your mind occupied with My Word, your eyes occupied with My will, your hands occupied with My works. Your hands can cling to the rope that binds us and at the same time hand it to others to be used to rescue them from the snare of the enemy. Thus is My Will done on earth as it is in heaven.
