Finding Peace and Boldness in Faith

Experience love, give love, be more alert. Your joy is boundless, your eyes perceiving beauty everywhere, your mind connecting all that comes into it into a pattern never before even suspected.

Meditation Thought: “ Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!” (2 Corinthians 5:17)

In Christ, a new creation!
– Righteous, for your sin is forgiven and forgotten
– Bold, for fear is replaced with confidence in your Helper (who is always with you, forever)
– Content, for your longing for peace and fulfillment is satisfied
– Excited, for you know that in Christ the work of the Father is constantly being done. And done with enthusiasm, good results and often in surprising ways!
-You are experiencing love and giving love, you are more alert, your joy is boundless, your eyes perceiving beauty everywhere, your mind connecting all that comes into it into a pattern never before even suspected.
– That which is unseen becomes as that which is seen, and that which is seen becomes magnified and intensified.

Christ is beyond all of the most potent effective medicines, vitamins, beauty aids and self-help courses washing over you, pouring into you, transforming the dead entity of your self now willed to Him into the Father’s image: His precious offspring, spirit of His spirit – His paternal dream fulfilled.

Suggested prayer:
“Come, Lord Jesus, into my heart and mind, that all of my thoughts and actions are in tandem with your thoughts and actions. Amen.”

Guaranteed Harvest: Faith and Perseverance

Turn to Me to cope with crisis. I will lead you through it, bringing new knowledge and wisdom.

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)

A guaranteed harvest! What farmer would not eagerly plant, till, and gather, despite difficulties and setbacks, knowing that all of the effort would absolutely be rewarded if they don’t give in and give up?

This is what our Father would have us realize: He sent His Son to us with the message that “Your harvest is guaranteed. Your faith is not misplaced. I do not ask you to work in vain but to work to produce a bountiful harvest. A harvest for you, for your family, for your fellow man. Believe it!

Turn to Me to cope with crisis. I will lead you through it, bringing new knowledge and wisdom in overcoming that will increase the harvest beyond even your fondest dreams. I give you the seed, I nourish it – do your part to make it thrive despite all that would destroy it. Study My ways, which I wish you to know, but which I will not force upon you. You will learn a superior method of farming to your joy and others’ amazement. Together, we will turn chaos into productive lands, feeding my people who will praise My name.”

Creating a Beautiful Life

Will you allow God the pleasure of loving and caring for you?

Meditation Thought: “whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.” (1 Corinthians 10:31)

“Picture yourself choosing various objects laid out before you to drop into a transparent cylinder of time. The overall pattern is determined by the objects you choose. If you listen to Me, I will enable you to choose objects which will produce a pattern of glowing loveliness and beauty. It will be a column of time giving pleasure to the world and to the Kingdom.

If you choose to ignore My wisdom and knowledge of the whole in selecting the objects, the column of time will be clouded and dark and jumbled. It will make no pattern of loveliness. Do not become so preoccupied with the necessity of selecting that you forget to consult Me. Walk in the Way, the Word, the Spirit, to discover My selections for your ideal pattern.

Trust Me – knowing that as the child, you cannot function properly without the care of your Father. I desire to love you and care for you – allow Me this pleasure.”

Transforming Hearts: How God’s Love Changes Us

Our heart changes when His loving presence moves into it, bringing light, warmth, wisdom, understanding, knowledge and forgiveness.

Meditation Thought: “for us there is one God, the Father, from whom are all things and for whom we exist, and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom are all things and through whom we exist.” (1 Corinthians 8:6)

Love is the key to life: without love there may be existence but not fullness. But how do we know love? We know love by allowing God into our heart. He seeks by His love and grace to enter into us. We must pry open the door of our free will to allow Him to enter.

Our heart changes when His loving presence moves into it, bringing light, warmth, wisdom, understanding, knowledge and forgiveness. We are so changed that nothing appears as before. It is enhanced, enriched and increased in value according to the Kingdom’s value system.

Suggested prayer: Lord, come into my heart! Clean, shine, renew, refurnish, redecorate, rebuild, remodel. Conform my heart to your image and specifications, while still expressing my personality in its uniqueness and style. Amen.

Caring for Our Bodies in Christ’s Image

Meditation Thought: “Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ?” (1 Corinthians 6:15)

Christ in each cell! With the yielding of my will to His will, my body is transformed into Christ living in the world today! How can I treat His body with anything but care and love?

Bodies come in all shapes and sizes. Genesis 1:27 says that God created people in His own image. That cannot refer to our physical beings – if it did we would all look like each other! Therefore, spiritually we are made in God’s image. Made to seek Him and His way. Made to care for the body He chose to encase our spirit. Not to abuse it, not to bemoan it, but to care for it and love it. And by so doing, we are then able to love others.

Trusting the Director of Your Life’s Journey

The wisdom of the ages is set before you. Will you partake?

Meditation Thought: “May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope.” (Romans 15:13)

The wisdom of the ages is set before you. Will you partake? It is the background for the action taking place in your life – its presence affects your performance. Your performance affects your audience.

Come, the time is ripe to be directed into a great performance of the Father’s will. You have been rehearsing and practicing. Now come the years in your life to perform what you have been learning.

The Director is in charge; if you will listen to Him, the performance will be effective for you and your audience. You don’t know the effects of your performance. Therefore, you must believe with all your heart that the instructions of your Director are bringing your performance to exquisite perfection that it may bring enlightenment and appreciation into all who see it, that they might rise up to give glory to the Author, and recognition to the Director.

Will you obey the Director, trusting His judgment is better than yours?

Principles of Spirit and Matter

As we move together, harmoniously and joyfully, we expand our effectiveness step by step through your life on earth. Thus is the Father’s will done on earth as it in in heaven.

Meditation Thought: “Therefore let us not pass judgment on one another any longer, but rather decide never to put a stumbling block or hindrance in the way of a brother.” (Romans 14:13)

“Take My yoke, for it is designed to carry much more as we go in double-yoke than you can carry alone. Concentrate on perfecting our movements in coordination, not looking back as to the character of the load, or as to its size. It matters not: as we pull together, coming to know each other and how to work together, we will pull larger and larger loads, loads which would be difficult were it not for My knowledge of how to manage them.

Rely on my experience in hauling every type of load, and every quantity of load – simply imitate My movements by closely observing all I do. The key is in leverage: the use of the abilities the Father created in the proper manner and in the proper sequence, according to the principles of Spirit and matter which He reveals through Me to you. By My obedience unto suffering and unto death, I have perfected in human form the movements in harmony with these principles. As by faith you yoke yourself to Me, you feel My movements tugging on you. Adjust yourself to feel comfortable and coordinated with My movements.

As we move together, harmoniously and joyfully, we expand our effectiveness step by step through your life on earth. Thus is the Father’s will done on earth as it in in heaven.”

You are Called

Yield to the softening flow of grace…

Meditation Thought: “So too at the present time there is a remnant, chosen by grace. But if it is by grace, it is no longer on the basis of works; otherwise grace would no longer be grace.” (Romans 11:5-6)

Take heed not to have pride that you feel the call of God in your life. It is by grace you are called, not by your worth or your works. Rejoice in your call that God’s grace has been poured upon you, and know that this grace is poured upon you for the transforming of your mind and your heart that you may be the means of God’s love poured into the world. Yield to the softening flow of grace – do not resist the change it is the accomplish in you: God’s purpose will quickly be accomplished if you yield your will to his grace.

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.”
