Absorb Jan.2

Absorb                             Jan.2
        You have read in Matthew's Gospel, “Blessed are the peacemakers”. What does it mean? There are many applications, but one important meaning. More prosperous are those who can absorb the anger of others and then show the love of the Father. Instead of reacting with anger of your own, you can return power to fight anger, by choosing for My sake, to present new love energy for others to combat their anger/fear.

Prayer: Lord, help me to take in another’s anger with peace that comes from your Spirit.


Forgiveness Jan.1

Forgiveness                      Jan.1
        Because you are forgiven by the Father, you must learn to forgive. I do not ask you to forgive another’s behavior. You can never do this because the self gets in the way. This is why I say, “Crucify the self daily”. When you start to dwell upon the hurts others have caused you, pride steps in. You will feel injustice and become too critical. This will not allow forgiveness. So I ask you to die to the self, full of false pride, and replace it with Me. Forgive the essence of others. Forgive their not knowing what they do. Forgive because I am forgiveness. Let Me judge the behavior. You learn to love even when persons are unpleasant.


Prayer: Lord, help me to begin this New Year with the kind of forgiving attitude that most honors you.

Word Power Dec.31

Word Power                                                             Dec.31

Even lights from burned out stars travel throughout the galaxies without stopping. What if words were so powerful that every word you spoke lasted forever, throughout eternity? Think long and hard about this.

Prayer: Lord, help me be slow to argue my point and direct my words only as they should be.



Risk Dec.30

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 remains a strong hint of the underlying factor motivating the kingdom and supernatural forces. Does there seem to be inequality with people in the kingdom principles? In a sense there is. But the main justification for it vibrates as a risk factor. The Father took the chance for loss for Me, his Son. The Father withstood the loss. I, the Son, withstood the loss. The supernatural order risks all for salvation. Risk often becomes the motivator for the kingdom principles. Lose yourself and behave what seems to be impossible.

Prayer: Lord, help me to recognize the correct risks for the sake of the Kingdom.

Be Glad Dec.29

Be Glad                            Dec.29

In your usual routine, go out of your way today to help just one other person. Give away some part of yourself: a kindness, a smile, a joyful word, an encouraging idea, or an act of mercy. Think how I have forgiven you. Each act can be new seed for growth.

Prayer: Thank you Lord for the newness opportunity of every day.



Maintain a Moment Dec.28

Maintain a Moment           Dec.28
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.



Prayer: Lord, I am so grateful you share our burdens when we recognize your presence or not.

Focus Dec.27

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.

Prayer: Lord, thank you for loving us when we do not even know what we need.


Motives Dec.26

Motives            Dec.26

You may now be released from your fears and move toward fellowship. You can be released from shyness to abundant confidence. You may be released from guilt and move to My fresh start. With Me by your side, turn your efforts toward others’ achievement and fullness. Help someone today get the credit you may deserve.


Prayer: Father, thank you for a new start and help me keep my eyes open for others.

Reassurance Day Dec.25

Reassurance Day              Dec.25

On this particular 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 demonstrates Me. Some small move toward kindness expresses My love. Persist in the belief I am with you, no matter what’s happening around you.

Prayer: Thank you for reminding us you were actually born on a special earth day.


Spiritually Prosperous Dec.24

Spiritually Prosperous      Dec.24

Spiritually prosperous are the poor in spirit for they can be freed from earthly temptations. Spiritually prosperous are those who mourn, for they shall receive an eternal comfort. Spiritually prosperous are the gentle for they can be trusted to inherit the earth and share its rewards.

Prayer: Thank you Lord, for the guidelines to follow you more fully.


Learning Dec.23

Learning                       Dec.23

Often, 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.

Prayer: Lord help me spend any of my resources on those things pleasing to you.


Be a Channel Dec.22

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.

Prayer: Lord, help us recognize all opportunities today and behave like your children.


The Law Dec.21

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.

Prayer: Thank you Lord for the forgiving law of love.

My Will Dec.20

My Will                 Dec.20

 If you begin your day 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 by letting Me be first in every decision. I will expand what you need later. I don’t want you just to be something or to do something, I want you to feel a sense of belonging for all times.


Prayer: Lord, thank you for letting us turn all our decisions to you first before action.

Before Time Dec.19

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.


Prayer: Thank you Lord, for being the true Path to your kingdom discovery.

Love Measure Dec.18

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 whether getting a return or not. To always expect a return tarnishes love. However, love given properly becomes its own reward. The Father will show you true love.



Prayer: Lord, teach me to love with more other-centered motives.

What to Pray for Dec.17

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.



Prayer: Lord, help me today, to appreciate those who seem to prosper, whether I do or not.

One True Test Dec.16

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.

     Prayer: Lord, keep showing me how to test the spirits.

Best Learning Dec.15

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 a principle from 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, rest in your secret place, and learn more of Me. Take time to absorb our conversations, especially after strong conflicts.


Prayer: Lord, help me through the day maintain my devotional thinking with you.


Sunday, December 14, 2014

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 all your neighbors. You do not have to love their actions. Love their potential in Me. Allow your faith in Me to rise up and challenge any question of your limitations.

Prayer: Lord, help me labor today to love those that are hard to love.


Saturday, December 13, 2014

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.


Prayer: Thank you, Lord, that you measure success in a different manner than the world.

Friday, December 12, 2014

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 complete in Me as possible. Growing in holiness will help you serve the material with right doing so you grow to become whole. All of My creation needs My stamp upon it. You are the ink, the salt, and the light.

Prayer: Lord I do pray for your continued wholeness.


Thursday, December 11, 2014

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.

Prayer: Lord, I don’t want to be stagnated in any of my attempts at worship or misread any world changes.


Wednesday, December 10, 2014

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. Think and learn what it means to be IN LOVE. 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.


Prayer: Lord, thank you I’m still learning about your kind of love.

Tuesday, December 9, 2014

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 % truth.

Prayer: Lord, help me not rush into the half-truths so easily.


Monday, December 8, 2014

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. You do not have to love their behavior. 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.


Prayer: Lord help me pay attention today to those persons who seem not to care about your kingdom.

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.


Prayer: Lord, thank you for reminding me that through your Son’s love, you gave me worth and purpose.

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.

Prayer: Lord, help me to act on the smallest amount of belief in you and the kingdom.



Friday, December 5, 2014

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 would 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.”

Prayer: Thank you Lord, for reminding me that all truth comes from your essence.


Thursday, December 4, 2014

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.


Prayer: Lord, help that part of me that wills decisions to filter all through your plan.


Wednesday, December 3, 2014

Continue Your Resolve Dec.3

Continue Your 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.

Prayer: Thank you, Lord, for the Holy Spirit who rises up within us to show your genuine love.


Tuesday, December 2, 2014

Extravagance Dec.2

Extravagance                Dec.2

You must understand I do not condemn extravagance as long as it is extravagant love for Me, extravagant joy, giving, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control, and mercy. If you must err, then err on the side of extravagant generosity.

Prayer: Lord, help me to understand if I take from life at some point, I need to put back.

Affirm the day Dec.1

Affirm the 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.

Prayer: Lord, help me know which battles to enter and which to avoid.


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.

Prayer: Thank you, Lord, that the Holy Spirit does not trick us with thoughts or emotions like some people.



Process Nov.29

Process                    Nov.29

Our relationship remains like a marriage. 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. 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.

Prayer: Lord, thank you for the idea we keep discovering new things even after our bodies move through death to another realm.


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.


Prayer: Lord, I do want to strive to think of you first and any kingdom implications.
