God understands where we are and the things we face, and He understands if there are times we may grumble a little bit and ‘kick the dirt’, so to speak. Sometimes this is the way for us to get our heart right first. Then, we are to remember the importance of godly integrity and honesty in everything we do and say. We must refuse to allow the fear of rejection to tempt us to use deception as a means of…
Fleecing is a medium, acting as an intervening force to determine some action, or direction desired. The word ‘if’ always accompanies the fleece and exempts the individual of the responsibility for the course taken. By using a fleece, the eternal spirit is deprived of its rightful authority to give divine instructions to the asker.
There is one of all. Every one and every thing is an extension or indication of that one original existence. For example, there is only one love. When it is broken up and applied to objects, it is seen as many kinds of love: love your child, love your dog, love your house, love your job. But when it is left whole and pure, and not broken up, then Love knows no bounds. The same is true with fear. There…
Dreams and visions are methods used to reveal lessons, provide instruction, counsel and direction, and even warnings. Prophetic events also occur through this medium. Dreams and visions can range from severity to humorous, depending on the dreamers’ attention to the spiritual journey. Life’s purpose determines intensity and frequency of the dreams. Corresponding events always follow a dream or vision and may transpire immediately, or occur at a later time. Either way, the natural desire to know can allow the imagination to…
The long, slow process of surrender enables the believer to enter their eternal home. To finally belong in a spiritual environment that’s satisfying is where safety, security and happiness reside. Little by little, self-created ideas and plans are surrendered until the believer is totally disconnected from the past addictive nature and its sensual earth bound life. Total surrender of the will is when the believer has been stripped of former values and worth and can begin the transformation to the…
Heaven looks to partner with anyone who answers the call. A lifestyle of cooperation is needed for God to work through an individual and effortlessly bring about the will of God on the earth.
In order to be fruitful and multiply, God needs us in that perfect place of His design. To get into that perfect place, we have to have everything of ourselves removed. If we could get to that perfect place by our own volition, we would be fruitful and multiply all of our own foolishness that we currently know and use. That would be our eternal state: poverty, ignorance, sickness and disease would be the produce. This is why God is the only…
Sometimes we find ourselves with an inner ‘grrrr’ towards people, situations, circumstances, or even toward ourselves. Sometimes it ebbs and flows, other times it can be more constant for days at a time. Know that there is nothing to do about the way you feel, except just BE QUIET. The turmoil usually means that more maturity is needed. Take the time to absorb or reflect on what God has said to you. For now, you are still walking in what you…
Time is the partner of the Spirit. When you look for something to fill time, it distracts your conscious mind from paying attention to and cooperating with the Spirit that continually works to bring a plan and purpose to pass. Use time efficiently.
What is the Spiritual Journey? The process in between accepting Jesus as Savior and the time when He completely becomes Lord of our life and we are in full surrender to Him is the ‘Spiritual Journey’. At the end of the Spiritual Journey, which is referred to as ‘home’, we have a completely transformed, Christ-like nature that has become one with His, and we partner with Him to bring Heaven to earth. The Spiritual Journey consists of seven significant events…
