Interwoven. Forevermore.

To produce the finest results, we must envision the finished product as the Father reveals His conception of it to us, bit by bit, moment by moment, lesson by lesson, and caress by caress.

Meditation Thought:  “Who are the faithful and wise managers whom the master will put in charge of his household…?” (Luke 12:42)

Rhythm – learn the rhythm. There is to everything a time, a season – the minute minutes are representative of the larger blocks of seasons comprising months. Learn to flow with the rhythm of God, daily calling upon the Word for the ‘season’ of the day, of the moment. Observe your household members (and others with whom you have contact) to determine their needs for that day. There will be days of feasting and days of fasting – relaxing days and hectic days – but always the joy of the Spirit, the solidarity of the Father, the ministrations of the Son running through every moment, every happening.

The thread of the moment stands not alone in the fabric of life but is interwoven with the threads of the moments before and the moments to come. Each thread contributes to the whole of the life – and each piece of fabric is then sewn together, one piece affecting the other, as to shape and pattern and appearance of the whole. Only if each thread, and each piece of fabric, is according to the Father’s conception of the finished whole, can the fulfillment of each moment, and the fulfillment of the will of the Father be accomplished in glory and in the full power possible.

To produce the finest results, we must envision the finished product as the Father reveals His conception of it to us, bit by bit, moment by moment, lesson by lesson, and caress by caress. And we must have the courage to allow Him to weave our life as He will, trusting that He has led us in truth and love, and will do so forevermore.

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.

Good to All, Harm to None

Help My people come to know Me as you know Me: Loving, caring providing and merciful – patient and generous, kind and good.

Meditation Thought: “Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the whole duty of man.” (Ecclesiastes 12:13)

“Listen to My instructions and heed them with confidence and with the enthusiasm with which you carry out your fondest desires. My instructions, followed correctly, bring good to all and harm to none. But who can follow My instructions? Only those who hear them. You must be listening, learning and moving if you are to carry out My will for your life and for the world and the kingdom. I will guide you:
in love, and not reproach,
in light and not in darkness,
in joy and not in pain,
in truth and not in lies.

I sent My Son that all might see I am a God of Love and Mercy as well as Righteousness. It is in a relationship of “family” that I want My instructions followed – not in the relationship of harsh taskmaster dealing with a reluctant servant. My Son lived and died that this message could get through to My people, could be completely understood if they would listen.

Help My people come to know Me as you know Me: Loving, caring providing and merciful – patient and generous, kind and good – but always consistent in administering the laws of righteousness and truth.”

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.”

(If you’re new to the Bible and would like help seeking God’s Word, try the Bible App.)

THE Formula for Success!

  • Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. (Matthew 22:37)
  • Love your neighbor as yourself. (Matthew 22:39)
  • Pray constantly (1 Thessalonians 5:17)
  • Get God’s Words within you (Psalm 119:11)
  • Reaffirm Jesus as your Lord and Savior by every thought, word and deed. (Romans 10:9, Colossians 3:23-34)
  • Praise God’s Holy name (Psalm 103:1)

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.

Healing the Body

Though we can learn from others who have gone before us, we must play our role alone. We must make the effort to learn what we need to know, to do what must be done, to endure what must be endured.

Meditation Thought: “An excellent wife who can find?
    She is far more precious than jewels.
11 The heart of her husband trusts in her,
    and he will have no lack of gain.
12 She does him good, and not harm,
    all the days of her life. (Proverbs 31:10-12)

“Bone of my bone, flesh of my flesh” (see Genesis 2:23), why do we not have perfect health? The grafts to not always “take” the first time – the moving of one part of the body to heal the injury of another part (i.e. the Body of Christ; see Romans 12) . We must, when sin diseases the Body, each do our particular job required to work together to repair the ravages of the sin.

At one time we are the patient and must patiently endure the operation;
At another time we are the doctor, actually moving and causing change in some area:
At another time we are the nurse, caring for the patient;
Again, we may be the friend who ministers with our support and love and encouragement;
Perhaps we are a relative, feeling the pain deeply, but unable to stop it from happening, for the pain is part of the cure.

And so the process goes on, age after age, and though we can learn from others who have gone before us, we must play our role alone. If we are to be competent in promoting healing, we must make the effort to learn what we need to know, to do what must be done, to endure what must be endured.

And the strength and courage to continue on lies in the faith that the healing is possible because there walked on earth One who was in perfect health, without the disease of sin, and He promised that if we believe in Him we shall do the works that He did (see John 14:12).

What He did in his physical manifestation on earth, He does today through the new Body which was transplanted as the old body was crucified on the cross. The new Body is not free from disease, but in the healing of the disease that invades it, the Father is glorified.
