Action Sept.28
If I, your Savior, show you a need, if I let you see it clearly, the ability to see it becomes the Spirit’s urging to take some action and meet the need. You may not meet every need, but work the one most clear. Discern the Spirit.
Trust Happiness Sept. 29
The truth still remains that you can find thankfulness from any of your opposing experiences. But, I your Lord, also want you to trust happiness in Me. Life, light, nature and any experience with Me can give you joy. As you remind yourself to pray and work through Me, celebrate your relationships. Stop and feel. Give thanks for all the little unmentioned things.
Find Distinction Sept. 30
Go out and do something today that only a genuine Christian would do.

Spiritual Purity
Spiritual Purity Sept.27
Often, you wonder why I do not keep you feeling My presence all the time, every waking minute. Your flesh would burn up. I can only expose you to absolute purity for brief moments, only those amounts your spirit can accept and absorb. Even one like Moses had to hide his face from the people because My glory shined too bright after being with Me a length of time.

Rebellion
Rebellion Sept.26
The kingdom bears its own fruit because it joins the proper soil. You are the soil. You are to become plowed anew, enriched and readied for the seed of the kingdom. I, your Savior, give the life energy to grow the fruit, but you have to be ready to receive in order for the plants to grow. If you rebel, you grow the weeds that take the place in the good soil. Weeds wither and die. Only the kingdom plants endure forever.

Control
Control Sept.25
When I walked with My twelve disciples and ate wheat or corn from the stalks in the field, I was challenged by man’s law “to not gather grain” on the Sabbath. Then, I posed the question: “Was man made for the Sabbath or the Sabbath made for man?” In other words, was a person made for the environment or the environment made for a person? Be aware that your circumstances do not control you, but you control your circumstances. You have lasting decisions to make so your job, friends, or even family do not run you.

Perspective
Perspective Sept. 24
From now on, do not view any person from a worldly point of view. See each, no matter whom, as a potential for My kingdom reconciliation. Do not see them as rich or poor, educated or not, clean or dirty, smart or dumb, good or bad. View them as potentially a new creature in My love.

The Little Things
The Little thing Sept.23
Every little gem of wisdom I pass to you comes from the Father and exists like a drop of fresh water to parched lips of the soul. Share often all you can. Today, especially, be faithful in the small things of the kingdom: give a compliment, help someone smile, encourage the down hearted. Your effort takes no more energy to be kind than to be rude.

Complacency
Complacency Sept. 21
One of your church leaders said that you face a generation trying to drink its way to prosperity, war its way to peace, spend its way to wealth, and ride a road of pleasure into heaven. Prosperity does not come by artificial endeavor. War remains only war. Spending more only works if it’s a gift of yourself. To only enjoy your way into heaven may mean you are missing your struggling occasions that are opportunities to grow. You do grow more through the challenges.

Ambition
Ambition Sept. 20
Take a moment and think on this question. Can any ambition that yearns for praise and place, live and speak the gospel of the Son, who cared not for any reputation and took on the form of a servant?

The Trade
The Trade Sept. 19
You cannot reason away some emotions. You must learn to trade the bad emotion for a better one. For instance, perform conscious effort and trade your anger for love. Let the emotional and chemical quality of love neutralize to renegotiate anger. I, the Lord, will help turn negative anger into the energy of redeeming love. Pray now to make the trade.

Kingdom Growth
Kingdom Growth Sept.18
I have told you specifically there are, at least, three qualities of human nature that belong to the kingdom of the Father. You must become poor in spirit. You must enter My realm as a little child. You must be willing to endure suffering in my name’s sake. Poor in spirit means to renounce your self-will and turn to Me. You are to remain childlike with trust and faith. You must learn to couch your discomfort in My name. Any of these possess the kingdom and the kingdom possesses them.

The Father's Partnership
The Father’s Partnership Sept.17
Do you not realize how important you are? I left the joy of heaven as the second person of the Trinity to come to earth, bear the Cross, and go back to heaven with a new joy because I take you with Me. I left behind the Holy Spirit to partner with you in all things. Use your faith I’ve given you to claim what already exists. Turn over all non-faith matters to Me.

New Joy
New Joy Sept.16
I, the Lord of All the universe, want you to experience joy each day. No matter what circumstances prevail. How? You may ask. Let your expectations be defined by My possibilities. I send opportunities everyday. Look for and expect My little surprises each day you live and know that you live eternity even now.

Finances
Finances Sept.15
When finances get you down, start saying a prayer over every bill you send that it becomes used to help others as a living event in the kingdom for God’s glory. Even if you’ve spent the funds unwisely, pray the pay back will redeem both you and others.

The Cosmos
The Cosmos Sept.14
The whole creation waits eagerly for you to be revealed because you have trusted Me. The world yearns for redemption like a parent would for a child. The creation was restrained by the will of the Creator because the process adds to the hope of freedom from bondage. You move toward freedom from ruin and decay, toward honest participation in the glory of the Father. As a child of God, part of you groans along with creation because you wait for your final position as adopted into the kingdom. All creation will be saved that is supposed to be saved.

Spiritual Eyes
Spiritual eyes Sept.13
You are truly blessed because you see what I teach you. You see the kingdom of the Father. In older days, kings and prophets wanted to see what you see but could not. They wanted to hear what you hear but could not. They wanted to feel what you feel but could not. You have the Holy Spirit’s presence to guide you always. Depend on Him.

Good Action
Good action Sept.12
You have seen in Luke 8 how I healed the Gaderene from many demons. He wanted to journey with the disciples and Me. I told him to go back home and tell them what God had done. This man had on borrowed clothes to shield his earlier nakedness. He had been the cause of several pigs receiving the demons and dying. Do you know what he did? He went home and found work so he could pay for the clothes and the pigs. This can be your testimony to the world. The kingdom principles of kindness, of putting back and giving when you don’t have to go the extra mile, remain your goals.

Compassion Blockers
Compassion blockers Sept.11
Compassion must start with other centeredness. Resentment, envy or coveting, anger or fear can throw up roadblocks to compassionate growth. Practice taking one day every week and do something nice for everyone you meet. Say a kind word; smile; compliment; do some good action and do not expect any thanks in return. Extend the action to two days. Stretch the days so your goal happens every weekday.

False Service
False service Sept.10
Beware of becoming inefficient from over activity of what others may think goodwill. They can rob you of your time with Me. In My name, say NO. Although you do not see one of My challenges, remember, your certain quest remains yourself. Keep seeking My spiritual insights.

Good versus Bad
Good verses bad Sept.9
Your capacity to love God the Father will point to your ability to hate evil. If you try to hate the evil without the right love, you enter a self-righteousness that tends to break Our clear fellowship. Major on love. If you err, do so, on the side of love.

Clear Perspective
Clear Perspective Sept.8
Ask specifically today for clear insight and courage of discovery to see yourself openly. You may be trying to cloak resentments with garments of piety. The resentments and subtle anger can gain a foothold in your life and ruin any purpose. Do not harbor any pretense, but be completely honest with yourself and others. The great I AM vibrates with you.

Endurance
Endurance Sept.7
Because you have the ability to foresee, a great capacity to solve problems emerges and you are more than your present circumstances suggest. You can move into what you can become. For instance, an animal may run to a dead end at a cliff, either stop or fall off. You may run to the same dead end and try to figure how to build a bridge across. The Father gave you the capacity to rework your conditions. Keep enduring and use Me as your guide.

Self Control
Self Control Sept.6
Remember, faithfulness and self-control remain fruits of My Spirit. The Spirit gives strength. He can give you perfect power of silence along with your self-control. Then, you are not to judge the hearts of others, but you may manage better decisions for them.

Competence
Competence Sept. 5
If you appear competent to yourself and others based on some human excellence, then you have only the potential of all a human can do. The Holy Spirit writes upon the tablets of human hearts. If you draw your competence from Me and I have it from the Father, you may claim extraordinary competence. I have made you complete as a bearer of the New Covenant. I remain a confidence of the Spirit who gives life abundantly. You may proceed with this confidence. Others may call you vain or haughty, but stay in the confidence of the Spirit.

Wasted Days Sept. 3
Remember, no day remains totally wasted when you have been even a minor part in enhancing the Kingdom on earth, such as a word spoken, a spiritual truth discovered, or a simple deed done. Results are My domain. Logic of it all stays My mystery. Connections are My concern. You just LIVE aware.

Secure
Secure Sept. 2
You have a place, an individual position that remains yours alone. It lingers as a hiding place and continues as a location of rest, overshadowed by the most High. Bathed and covered with love, no one can go there but you. I am there with you always.
