Your Words Dec.31
Even the light of burned out stars travels throughout the galaxies without stopping. What if every word you spoke lasted forever, throughout eternity? Think long and hard about this.
Reader Prayer: Lord, direct my words as they should be.

Risk Dec.30
When you read in scripture the stories of the Prodigal son, Mary and Martha, the workers of different talents, and the occasion I told Peter not to worry about John’s business of growth, there remain hints of the underlying factor motivating the kingdom and supernatural forces. Does there seem to be inequality in the kingdom principles? In a sense there is and the main justification for it vibrates as a risk factor. The Father took the chance for loss for his Son. The Father withstood the loss. I, the Son, withstood the loss. The supernatural order risks all for salvation. Risk becomes the motivator for the kingdom principles. Lose yourself and behave what seems to be impossible.
Reader Prayer: Lord, help me to recognize the correct risks for the sake of the Kingdom.

Maintain a Moment Dec.29
Any day that you can clarify a spiritual truth, means the day was not wasted. I do not expect you to keep carrying the full load of life. I will carry the load. You just handle the small moments of a day, and then give the entire load to Me. My accepted burden makes your burden light.
Reader Prayer: Lord, I am so grateful you share our burdens when we recognize your presence or not.
Tuesday, December 27, 2011
Be Glad Dec 28
Go out of your way today to help one other person. Give away a kindness, a smile, a joyful word, an encouraging idea, or an act of mercy. Think how I have forgiven you. Each day can be new.
Reader Prayer: Thank you Lord for the newness opportunity of every day.
Focus Dec.27
When I told My disciples to follow me, I did not mean just to follow certain rules or laws. I meant to relate to Me, form an intimate connection. Then you can filter all your personal involvements through our relationship. My love remains the foundation of our connected state. Work all your involvements with love as motivation. You may not feel love, but just be love.
Reader Prayer: Lord, thank you for loving us, when we do not even know what we need.
Sunday, December 25, 2011
Motives Dec.26
You may now be released from your fears and move toward fellowship. You can be released from shyness to sound confidence. You may be released from any guilt and move to My guidance. With Me by your side, turn your efforts toward others’ achievement and fullness. Help someone today get the credit you may deserve.
Reader Prayer: Father, help me keep my eyes open for others.
Joy of Giving Dec. 25
On this special day, your life may not be off track just because you do not “feel” Me. Other signs point to you still remaining My follower. For instance, any unselfish act could display an attempt to be My disciple. Any act of mercy shows Me. Some small move toward kindness expresses My love. Persist in the belief I am with you, no matter what’s happening around you.
Reader Prayer: Thank you for letting us know you were actually born on a special earth day.
Three Blesseds Dec. 24
Blessed are the poor in spirit for they can be freed from earthly temptations. Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall receive an eternal comfort. Blessed are the gentle for they can be trusted to inherit the earth and share its rewards.
Reader Prayer: Thank you Lord, for the guidelines to follow you more fully.
Friday, December 23, 2011
Learning Dec.23
Often times life exists as a school and not just time to spend any way you want. School means you look for and expect homework and perform your lessons as best you can. I remain your teacher. Pay attention and I will show you the way. Today’s lesson: Simplify your life. Get rid of the clutter.
Reader Prayer: Lord help me spend any of my resources on those things pleasing to you.
Thursday, December 22, 2011
Be a Channel Dec.22
Today, channel your resources to others in active ways: listen to the unlovely, speak to the timid, give funds where needed, give your time and talent in ways that others might receive the credit. Then, your light will shine brighter as you have prayed.
Reader Prayer: Lord, help us recognize our opportunities today.
Wednesday, December 21, 2011
The Law Dec. 21
As the scripture states I was born of a woman under the law [Gal.4:4]. This includes all law. The universe revolves around a Moral set of laws, like the four seasons, or gravity, or life and death. You are to learn to live alongside these laws. If you go against them, you will be wounded and finally crushed. The law of My love supersedes all other laws but does not eradicate them. They are meant to harmonize.
Reader Prayer: Thank you Lord for the forgiving law of love.
Tuesday, December 20, 2011
My Will Dec.20
If you begin your life with large interests and then try to come closer to Me, you will find this proves backwards. I do not want you grudgingly accepting My will. Start each day with wanting more love not forcing My will. Move to the inner circle of My love with the small interests. I will expand what you need later. I don’t want you just to be something or to do something, I want you to belong for good.
Reader Prayer: Lord, thank you for making a way to become a vital part of your kingdom forever.
Monday, December 19, 2011
Before Time Dec.19
No one lived before Me. I am the Way and the Way stays all around you. When you see a child laugh, you behold the Way. When you discover a brilliant flower, you see the Way. When you see someone offer mercy; you behold the Way. All creation gives hint of the Way. I, your Savior, am the Way. I did not come to create the Kingdom. My Kingdom was already here. I came to provide a doorway through the Way to the Kingdom of the Father.
Reader Prayer: Thank you Lord, for showing us a true Path to your kingdom.
Sunday, December 18, 2011
Love Measure Dec. 18
Self-centered love gives to someone or something in order to receive back a greater portion. True love maintains a yearning to give only goodness to the object loved without expecting a return. To always expect a return tarnishes love. However, love given properly becomes its own reward. The Father will show you true love.
Reader Prayer: Lord, teach me to love with more other-centered motives.
Saturday, December 17, 2011
What to Pray For Dec.17
Continue to pray to overcome the weak points in your life that cause you jealousy, envy, or strife. You do not need to spend so much time praying to overcome negative people or situations. I will handle them. I am still in control. Just look to yourself and make sure the negative people don’t cause your weak points to emerge. Stay walking in the kingdom principles.
Reader Prayer: Lord, help me today, to appreciate those who seem to prosper, whether I do or not.
Friday, December 16, 2011
One True Test Dec. 16
You are always wondering which voice speaks to you. You say, “Is this or that of God? How do I know for sure?”
There remains a constant test to know if I am asking something of you instead of the negative forces. Ask yourself: Will what I’m about to say or do glorify the Father? If the answer is “no” or “I don’t know” wait until you can answer “yes.” I help you combine spiritual thoughts with spiritual words to arrive as a partner with the Holy Spirit. If your activity or one you’re about to do doesn’t honor the Father, you may not need to give it up, but rather, turn it into God’s glory. If that can’t be done, then give it up. Your ultimate goal in life remains to move everything you do into glorifying the Father and the Kingdom.
Reader Prayer: Lord, keep showing me how to test the spirits.
Thursday, December 15, 2011
Best Learning Dec.15
When the Roman soldiers came to take Me out of the garden and away from My disciples, I did not say to My followers, “Ok, now let Me teach you the principles of the Sermon on the Mount.” I do not try to teach you the best when you are going through turmoil or struggles. You may gain insight but My best teaching and your best learning occurs when you are relaxed. Find that resting attitude, relax and learn more of Me. Take time to absorb our conversations.
Reader Prayer: Lord, help me through the day maintain my devotional thinking with you.
Wednesday, December 14, 2011
Surrender Doubt Dec.14
Surrender Doubt Dec.14
This becomes the time of year to surrender all that does not line up with the law of love I have given you. Love your neighbor. Allow your faith in Me to arise and challenge any question of your limitations.
Reader Prayer: Lord, help me work today to love those that are hard to love.
Tuesday, December 13, 2011
Success Dec. 13
Success Dec.13
Make sure the enterprise you step into comes by faith through Me and I will send the appropriate resources you need. Success remains measured by My viewing how you enrich the Kingdom and its people. How do you measure the enterprise? Ask: Could you perform the task without My help? Does it honor the Father by applying His true Love? If you can answer these properly, resources will flow to you like living water.
Reader Prayer: Thank you, Lord, that you measure success in a different manner than the world.
Monday, December 12, 2011
Wholeness Dec.12
Wholeness Dec.12
Just as I fed the hungry and mingled with the world’s problems, you must find your place to do likewise. My feeding and mingling was My spiritual essence at work. You must not totally separate the secular from the spiritual. Make as many things whole in Me as possible. Serve the material with right doing so you grow in holiness which becomes whole. All of My creation needs My stamp upon it. You are the ink, the salt, and the light.
Reader Prayer: Lord I do pray for wholeness in you.
Sunday, December 11, 2011
Stuck Dec.11
Stuck Dec.11
Just because something was done a certain way in the past does not mean it must duplicate itself the very same way in the present. Don’t let your worship of Me become such a habit that you overlook what may happen now in the modern world. Technology continues to change many things. I may not change My love, but circumstances continue to change. Move with the flow but keep Me at your center.
Reader Prayer: Lord, I certainly don’t want to be stagnated in any of my attempts at worship and understanding the changes.
Saturday, December 10, 2011
Love Close-Up Dec.10
Love Close-up Dec.10
You may love Me from a distance. But if you want to love Me close-up, remain IN LOVE with Me, then look to your fellow Christians. Practice loving them no matter what. Leave their unworthiness to Me. Give yourself to them. This shows My Glory.
Reader Prayer: Lord, thank you I’m still learning about your kind of love.
Friday, December 9, 2011
Half-Truths Dec.9
Half -Truths Dec.9
Be careful of half-truths. Your culture promotes a universal principle; that is, you tend to believe immediately 50 per cent of something when you know little about the subject. For this reason, people believe horoscopes, polls, and certain advertising statistics. KNOW your facts. KNOW your data. Do not live on half-truths. KNOW ME and I will give you 100 % understanding.
Thursday, December 8, 2011
Love Test Dec.8
Love Test Dec.8
I know you can love individuals, especially if each strikes your interest. But you do not experience My full love until you can love the uninteresting, unlovely multitudes that are blind, unfeeling, and lost. Expand your compassion by opening yourself to the larger world around you. You do not always have to be right. Practice kindness and with love, absorb their misdirection.
Reader Prayer: Lord help me pay attention today to those persons who seem not to care about your kingdom.
Wednesday, December 7, 2011
The Grand Purpose Dec.7
The Grand Purpose Dec.7
Look around you. Your surroundings, your circumstances, Nature and the whole universe maintain intention and value. Certain values remain constant and important, like gravity. What kind of universe would let all your trials and struggles mean nothing at your end? Can death just wipe all away? For some, it might seem so. But death cannot exhaust My love. I will not let your life become a mockery. You have immortality. You will live on and grow. Take comfort in your present purpose. Know My intention will never be in vain because it continues. I am your eternal valid purpose.
Reader Prayer: Lord, thank you for reminding me that through your Son’s love, you gave me worth.
Tuesday, December 6, 2011
No Guidance Dec.6
No Guidance Dec.6
If you feel 98% no guidance from Me and only 2% direction, follow the 2% because that remains better for you than operating on the larger amount without Me. If you feel NO guidance, then listen to the silence because often I am leading in the non-guidance. Trust becomes the goal.
Reader Prayer: Lord, help me to act on the smallest amount of belief in you and the kingdom.
Monday, December 5, 2011
Clear Truth Dec.5
Clear Truth Dec.5
The whole universe stands behind truth. You do not have to justify, make confusing rules, or complicate truth. You will have to complicate lying to cover any sham. But truth stands alone and verifies itself. Let your “yes” become “yes” and your “no” become “no.”
Reader Prayer: Thank you Lord, for reminding me that all truth comes from your essence.
Friday, December 2, 2011
The Way Dec.4
The Way Dec.4
All around you vibrates the Father’s Way. So it is not, “where there’s a will, there’s a way.” It is rather, “where remains God’s Way, there resides a will.” All of creation ripples with the effects of God’s way. Look for it. Allow His will to become your willingness.
Reader Prayer: Lord, help that part of me that wills decisions to filter all through your plan.
Continual Resolve Dec.3
Continual Resolve Dec.3
By contacting and talking to Me daily, you build up a kind of reserve. When a crisis comes you can then respond automatically because you have accumulated this storehouse of habit. Your nature changes more into My nature and genuine love can reign.
Reader Prayer: Thank you, Lord, for the Holy Spirit who rises up within us to show your genuine love.
Extravagance Dec.2
Extravagance Dec.2
Reader Prayer: Lord, help me to understand if I take from life at some point, I need to put back.

Affirming a Day Dec.1
Affirming a Day Dec.1
The future possesses hidden treasures, couched in eternity. Still, your daily issues continue to be guided by your Heavenly Father. You chose your daily battles, but continue to lean on Me.
Reader Prayer: Lord, help me know which battles to enter and which to avoid.
Wednesday, November 30, 2011
A Combination Nov.30
A Combination Nov.30
Righteousness and intelligence should go together when understanding the Kingdom principles. A person who guides with intelligence and no right doing should be avoided. A person who tries to lead with righteousness and no intelligence cannot be as trustworthy either. Intelligence may only point to worldly conclusions. Righteousness alone tends toward emotional bondage. Trust the person who uses both energies to bridge your understanding.
Reader Prayer: Lord, help me combine my emotions , intelligence and right doing in a balanced manner.
Tuesday, November 29, 2011
Process Nov.29
Process Nov.29
Our relationship remains a partnership. You experience crisis and continuity because you initially formed a connection with Me. But the process of growing keeps going on and on. You are to give a part of yourself away each day, while I am giving fully. The kingdom of heaven thrives upon continual growth. You will not even stop learning and developing when you die because a certain maturity continues throughout eternity.
Reader Prayer: Lord, help me know what I’m to give away today.
Monday, November 28, 2011
A Reminder Nov.28
A Reminder Nov.28
You want our relationship to maintain a natural condition. Everyday say some prayer for another, read a scripture, put love in action, or give something away. Practice your commitment to ME and I become as natural to you as the air you breathe.
Reader Prayer: Lord help me be clear-headed today and practice your presence.
Thursday, November 24, 2011
Persistence Nov.27
Persistence Nov.27
Out of the hardest cement can grow a single plant. The struggle the seed endures may be slow but the life in it remains certain. To you, up it pushes with an unexplainable life, a most powerful surge of My creation. You are a seed. You can overcome the hardest challenges by claiming My life within.
Reader Prayer: Lord help me with the challenges I face to keep me focused on your kingdom guides.
Beyond the Past Nov.26
Beyond the Past Nov.26
I remember your work produced by faith in Me. I know your labor prompted by love. I see your endurance inspired by the hope in Me. Keep thinking of present and future possibilities and do not dwell on past events.
Reader Prayer: Lord, although I do not see very far, I look to the future with you.
Obstacles Nov.25
Obstacles Nov.25
When Fear knocks on your door just say, “There’s nobody home. Only someone named faith lives here.” Surrender all your hindrances and barriers between us. They only cause you to stay upset and you become too centered with earthly worry. Anxious moments just breed more anxious moments. The Holy Spirit wants to continue setting you free. Give away those subtle snares that trap you.
Reader Prayer: Lord, I give you those hindrances now.
Faith Nov.24
Faith Nov.24
Faith becomes active when you graciously accept that to which you already believe. Quit trying and trust. The Prodigal son’s older brother let anger get in his way of forgiveness. Anger portrays nothing but hostile fear. Fear stands opposite of faith. Make conscious effort to trade your anger for peace which genuine faith produces. Then, practice adding to your faith resolution, resolving you will endure, maintain self control, and promote the Father’s kindness with all humanity.
Reader Prayer: Oh Father, help me to see your Son and walk as he would have me travel.
The First Nov.23
The First Nov.23
When I said, “I am the Way” I referred to the fact I am the first designer. See Me in the glow of a fire. See Me in the stirring branches of the wind. See Me in the richness of the soil. See Me in the sparkle of water. I am not within these things. These things reflect I am the creator and first cause of these. I am the first beauty of all things.
Reader Prayer: Father, weed out any darkness in my spirit and keep shining the light to show your creation.
Nov.22 Nature
Nature Nov.22
Nature bursts forth as the harmonious expression of God the Father couched in human time. If you will read nature you can understand much of the creative Father.
Reader Prayer: Lord, I am truly grateful for what Nature can teach us.
Death Nov.21
Death Nov.21
I never conducted a funeral. I only gave opportunity for life. Memorial services speak to a person’s past. I call upon you for a dedication service, a steady commitment for the present and future. Nothing wrong with past accomplishments. Just do not dwell on them. Look to the opportunities I bring you now. Any seed planted will have potential growth.
Reader Prayer: Lord, thank you for life here and now.

I give you a little parable. Picture yourself standing in the bottom of a dark, fifteen foot hole but in the daylight hours. You could still look up and see the stars. No matter how dark your circumstances, look up. I am
still there.
Responses Nov.18
Responses Nov.18
My love may send someone your way today. I may have impressed them to come specifically to you. No matter who they are or what they look like. Pay attention. Don’t turn anyone away from some need.
Reader Prayer: Lord help me to use my resources wisely for anyone who may need my assistance.
Thursday, November 17, 2011
Growth Nov.17
Growth Nov.17
When you first met Me, you were bursting with the wonder of first impressions. Nothing seemed impossible. Then came a longer time of learning and experiences that punched away at your faith, but those times helped to strengthen you. You entered a place of questions whether your joy would ever return again. With more and more of your journey in and out from Me, you wonder if you’ve lost your sense of wonder. It will come more strongly today. Watch for the experience.
Reader Prayer: Oh Lord, thank you for any return of your joy.
Wednesday, November 16, 2011
Links Nov.16
Links Nov.16
Because of the connectedness of all things in the universe, the Father delights in working out every detail to bring honor to your trust and commitment. His Holy Spirit will bring to pass your needs and desires when you rest in Him. Start each day looking for what I will work out to your benefit. You may not see it at first, but believe in My connections. The journey can be its own reward.
Reader Prayer: Thank you, Father, for the connections even when I do not understand all of them.
Tuesday, November 15, 2011
Purification Nov.15
Purification Nov.15
The essence of purification, the filtering out of the non-essential, resides in right relationships. A necessary ingredient displays itself as loyalty. Be more concerned about your opportunities to relate than your efforts to acquire things.
Reader Prayer: Lord, help me today be a Spirit filter for any relationship you have placed before me.
Monday, November 14, 2011
False Shyness Nov.14
False Shyness Nov.14
A misplaced shyness may become an obnoxious form of vanity because it will paralyze any good works since it develops from an extreme sense of self importance. Be bold in Me. Know that I am your Lord.
Reader Prayer: Lord help me not be shy in any circumstance that might honor you.
Sunday, November 13, 2011

What to plant Nov.12
Reader Prayer: Lord, keep teaching me about the Kingdom and help me plant the right seeds for its enhancement.
How big is God's love? Nov.11
How big is God’s Love? Nov.11
I have said that the Father’s love has length, breadth, height, and depth. To this you are connected. His length remains His everlasting, non-ending being. His breadth shows His love as extending to all people what He wills for Himself and others. His height displays His power so you can pray with all the energy of your spirit. His depth stands for wisdom of all the Spirit knows and dwells within those who have ears to hear.
Reader Prayer: Lord, increase my awareness that your love is much larger than we can imagine and with it comes our acceptance.

Who is God? Nov.10
Who is God? Nov.10
God vibrates by natural essence any good that a human possesses only by Grace.
Reader Prayer: Thank you lord for your unbounded love essence.

Love Essence Nov.9
Love Essence Nov.9
Your heavenly Father does not just do love. He IS love! He cannot function without love motivation. Everything that happens to you remains fused with His love because you are in Me and I am in you. You may not always understand the consequences. On the surface or the immediate moment may seem harsh or unloving, but that’s because you cannot see the whole picture of all the connections in the universe. Let love work through every experience. I have loved you more than any person or object that receives your highest passion.
Reader Prayer: Thank you , Lord, for your immeasurable love energy.
Monday, November 7, 2011
Spirit World Nov.8
Spirit World Nov.8
You must practice shutting out your taste, touch, sight, smell, and hearing to fully contact Me. Your body will make noises and fight you on this. Go to a quiet place; close your eyes; shut out all the noise you can and throw your thoughts out beyond this world. Let your spirit soar away from physical connections. This, then, will become your highest form of prayer. A large hole will open among the blackness when you tear through the great rift between heaven and earth. Move in spirit through the hole and linger in My presence.
Reader Prayer: Lord, thank you for continually teaching me ways to form better connection with you.
Permanence Nov.7
Permanence Nov.7
Any work you want to be permanent must be done through the Holy Spirit, bathed in the Father’s essence. All other efforts remain as temporary results. Search scripture and prayer for what the Spirit wants you to do. Don’t just think of something and ask the Spirit to bless it.
Reader Prayer: Lord, help me not to rush ahead of the Spirit’s call.
Perfection Nov.6
Perfection Nov.6
When I said for you to be perfect even as My Father in heaven is perfect, I was pointing to the verses before which dealt with love. So be perfect in your love: love your enemies, love those that misuse you, those that misunderstand you and especially love Me. Through Me your love may be perfect even if your experiences and expressions of that love are not yet perfect.
Reader Prayer: Father, thank you for your astonishing love you share.
Simplicity Nov.5
Simplicity Nov. 5
Nothing remains insignificant because I can connect all things. Remember, you live in this world and My kingdom at the same time. You need to flavor everyday events with kingdom joy. When you greet someone give them a kingdom smile. When you see someone on the street, shoot them a kingdom prayer. No occasion, no contact stays too small to enhance the kingdom principles. Even though you do not see anything on the surface, trust that I am working underneath. Blessed are you when you hunger and thirst for the kingdom in every word and deed. My kingdom is a kingdom of service, not ego-power.
Reader Prayer: Lord, keep reminding me every moment, I am to serve gladly any who might cross my path.
Poor in Spirit Nov.4
Poor in spirit Nov.4
Poor in spirit means to renounce your Self being totally in control. It does not mean to dishonor the Self. I do not want to rule over a ruined Self but a surrendered one. What happens when you renounce your Self? You are left with an emptiness to be filled. The Holy Spirit can now make you aware of your God need, God dependence, and God origin. You can accept the Father’s grace and lean fully on Him. Without the emptying of the Self, you would still be filled with all the worldly clutter. That clutter pushes out the Holy Spirit, silencing His inner message. In modern terms, crucify your false self so your true self can be resurrected.
Reader Prayer: Lord, I do pray you would help me be other-centered.
Thursday, November 3, 2011
Perception Nov.3
Perception Nov.3
My wisdom gives you better discernment and can help you make the right decisions to live the full life the Father intended. Ask to be wise and through this grows respect for who I am and your quality of trust will blossom. Your trust factor sustains your shield against the evil doers. It will keep you out of unnecessary trouble. Ask in every detail and your soul will be enriched.
Reader Prayer: Lord, I do pray for discernment with every decision.
Wednesday, November 2, 2011
Need Nov. 2
Need Nov.2
One reason you need a close walk with Me everyday because for now, sin is permanently associated with the substance of your being. You can get better by not letting it control you, but you control it by calling on My name.
Reader Prayer: Thank you Jesus for your name above all others.
Tuesday, November 1, 2011
Accountability Nov.1
Accountability Nov. 1
When I said, “Lo I am with you alway” I meant for you to pay attention to all the daily details you experience. I may break through to you at any minute because the time and circumstances merge together.
Reader Prayer: Lord, increase my awareness of your incoming messages.

Power of Soul Oct.31
Power of Soul Oct. 31
When you deliberately hide a negative and push it down, the subconscious captures it and places it in the depths of your spirit. Honesty becomes more difficult because those buried issues stay glossed over and hidden from the light. Ask My Spirit to reveal all and partner with you for healing and starting over.
Reader Prayer: Lord, help me to be more self-honest because I know I hide nothing from You.
Satan Blinded Oct.30
Satan Blinded Oct.30
There exists a secret, which remains a secret, which becomes for you a subtle knowing: the love of the I AM stays fixed.
Reader Prayer: Thank you Father, for keeping some things away from the evil one knowing.
One Thing Oct.29
One Thing Oct.29
Because at times you may be tempted to quit, let My word of Philippians 3:13-14 remain your motivation. You will win the prize by doing this one thing.
Reader Prayer: Oh Holy Spirit, increase my strength to keep on your kingdom track.
Doubt's Opposite Oct.28
Doubt’s Opposite Oct.28
Allow your faith, hope and trust in Me arise and attack any question of a specific limitation. Again, this is the time of year to surrender all that does not check out with the law of love I’ve given you. So love your neighbor.
Reader Prayer: Lord I pray for a mature love, one that thinks more of others.
Be Careful Oct.27
Be Careful Oct.27
In the kingdom of the Father, an over abundant prosperity can blind you to your servant challenge, your humble beginnings. Blessed are the poor in spirit partly means to abolish too much self-indulgence. Life remains hard to be poor in spirit when too rich in the physical. Give some away today to balance the physical and spiritual.
Reader Prayer: Lord, help me be aware of who to give something to today.
Wednesday, October 26, 2011
Be Alert Oct.26
Be alert Oct.26
In the beginning of your journey, your faith was often too simple in that you became superstitious. The Father still honors any childlike faith, but it may be based on the fear of the unknown, so you trust too much to something like magic. The problem with magic or sorcery is that at the core, it has a false idea of causation. It centers on the thrill and enchantment for salvation and results in misdirected thinking and attitude toward the Father. The time has come to move that part of your superstitious self to the full acceptance of pure Grace. If you get ready for any miracles, so be it. But if not, you need to pay close attention to the small, unusual sights and sounds I send.
Reader Prayer: Lord, I do not want to believe in magic, but help me understand the abiding mysteries of some of your word.
Tuesday, October 25, 2011
Relating Oct.25
Relating Oct.25
Since the Father revealed Me as a person to the world and to you, then the true path to Him flows through your personal experience. By asking, you can know me personally, not trying to find Me through an intellectual exercise. My ownership of you, My partnership with you, and our special relationship are the roads you travel to truly understand who I am. Your experience matters and needs renewing often. Ask.
Reader Prayer: Holy Father, I do pray you would soak every experience with your power.
Monday, October 24, 2011
Trust Oct.24
Trust Oct.24
With emotional commitment comes trust. Trust presents mostly feeling. Trust continues to dwell in the realm of emotional feelings. Most reason gets abandoned when trust must feel in order for issues like hope to possess a reality. Trust moves promise into actual present fulfillment. Trust in Me. Hope in Me. Then, live in Me. Trust in your future, but give full participation for what still happens now.
Reader Prayer: Lord, I have to admit: One of the hardest emotions to maintain faithful action resides with the issue of trust. Keep teaching me HOW.
Plans Oct.23
Plans Oct.23
Reader Prayer: Lord, I still want you to help me find the right life plans and also to be able to read them correctly.
Try Again Oct.22
Try Again Oct.22
The amazing truth still exists: God, the Father, in all His wisdom and knowledge - - -loved you. As the Father created Me, Jesus, you can recreate yourself with me every day. The choices you make may be eternity's treasures.
Reader Prayer: Lord, thank you for giving us chance after chance to start new.
Spirit Working Oct.21
Spirit working Oct.2
Continually, unseen forces pass through you, like ultra violet rays. The Father may not need your body to connect with your mind, but He does need your senses to connect with Him. If you were to loose your consciousness, but maintain something like compassion, the Spirit could still interpret without your help. The Holy Spirit hears your unintelligent mutterings. There are more things passing through you that you do not register than you realize. My Spirit helps you go beyond your limitations. Since it is true that you are more than you think, feel, believe, and behave in Me, then you are valued much more than you think you are.
Reader Prayer: Holy Father, thank you for seeing any worth in me and those around me.Creation Oct. 20
Creation Oct.20
It is one thing if you believe the Father created everything and just turned it loose to progress as it would. In some ways He did with free will. But it is a higher belief to know the Father remains involved with His creation. The truth stays firm that one purpose of creation resulted in a redemptive rest. Whatever else the Father does, when it comes to creation, He wants to put things back in balance for peace and harmony. He does this through the redeeming significance of Me, His Son and humanity's struggles on earth.
Reader Prayer: Lord, help me to do my part for the harmony of this world.

Appetite Oct.19
Appetite Oct.19
Your appetite follows from your essence, who you really are. If you are a thief at heart, you'll have an insatiable need to steal. So then, Sin clings to the essence of you and sins become the appetites. It takes the power of the Holy Spirit to change your nature and thus change appetite. I did not take away your appetites, but I am changing them to move toward the Father. The greatest appetite of all vibrates Love.
Reader Prayer: Thank you, Lord, there really is a part of me that hungers for your right doing.

A Pronouncement Oct.18
A Pronouncement Oct.18
At My baptism, when the voice from heaven proclaimed I was the Father's Beloved and the Holy Spirit came like the wings of a bird, all happened so other scripture was fulfilled. But more than that, the event was a picture of what happens to you when you trust Me. You receive the Spirit and become My special child. There exists nothing more precious; not worlds or universes. Remember who you are everyday: Beloved.
Reader Prayer: Thank you Lord for your gracious acceptance of me.
