The Invisible Feb.28

And Jesus whispered:

 "The kingdom of the Father stays hidden from the clever deceit of earthly motivations. It quietly lives in the true way, when I said, ‘I am the Way.’  The kingdom settles into what appears a subtle reality. Yet, it is a permanent reality. It is an open secret to those who genuinely search. All God’s secrets are open to those who have eyes to see and ears to hear. The invisible shimmers all around you, ready to be discovered. The kingdom secrets are the kingdom truths. Watch for them daily. Scripture reveals much."

  

Prayer: Lord, keep me attentive to your truths being shown every day through the little things.

Discovery Feb.27

And Jesus reminded me:

"My kingdom, the kingdom of Christ breathes within you. Together we work to create a true self. So, in one sense, the more you discover your true self, the more you give opportunity to experience the kingdom. The false self, the one that wants only what it wants, is still with you. You must nail it to a cross daily. Try your best to respond with total honesty. Honesty does not mean you have to tell all your weaknesses to the public. Choose to tell the truth whenever an opportunity arises and let the true self grow."

Prayer: Lord, help me know the difference between the true self and the false.

Right Motivation Feb.26

And the Lord said:

"A person’s spirit who becomes a slave to a process of earning salvation stays misguided compared to a spirit who knows the thrill of adoption by the Father. He has made you sons and daughters through Me. I am your Way. This is why I told you to worship Me in spirit and in truth. The reality of adoption is an unbreakable truth. I paid for your sins on the Cross. You owe me nothing but your self-will. Let your spirit have the joy of what I’ve done. You do not have to earn any favor. Joy comes through acceptance and praise."

Prayer: Lord, thank you I am your adopted sibling and reborn into your Kingdom.

Grief Feb.25

Holy Spirit said:

"Grief that leads to negative human guilt is not of God. Negative guilt wants punishment. It wants to pay. Any kind of worldly grief or guilt produces a path to death, your enemy. You can grieve the passing of a loved one or for other unjust issues in the world, but let your hurt remain in faith to Me who has the final power over pain and death. If you grieve as the Father wills it, then it is all right because this grief can lead to repentance."

Prayer: Lord, thank you that you are the Comforter for any heartache.

Idols Feb.24

Holy Spirit reminded:

   "Eros is the kind of love that wants something back because it has conditions, and it may create knowledge. Knowledge alone can puff up pride. Agape love, Heavenly Father’s love, unconditional, builds up other-centered motives. Pay close attention to those who want you to love something.  Any temporary system, thing, or individual that becomes an obsession can become an idol, when it tries to claim and set up absolute truth for the self alone. To avoid idol making, let the Holy Spirit show you the only two absolutes in your thinking: Jesus and The Father’s kingdom.

Prayer: Lord, please keep my faith strong in the events of your kingdom

Glory Feb.23

The Spirit reminded:

        "EVERYTHING------Yes, everything, was made for the glory of the Father. He bestowed upon Me all things, the universe, creation, the souls, the very essence of humanity. I am the Way of Art. I am the Way of Nature. I am the Way of Beauty. I am Life. All things, even the smallest act, are to glorify the Father. In Him, all things hold together. Chaos would reign without His Glory."

Prayer: Thank you, Lord, for the beauty you send and the forgiveness of your Grace.

Presence Feb.22

Jesus reminded me:

        "I have said to you that I would be with you always because the Holy Spirit stays among you. Separations occur when things happen like an unloving act, a lack joy, when you are impatient, when you lack peace, when forgetting kindness, when making faithless decisions, when you push justice without mercy, when you are out of control. And even in all of those, I am still here, but your own awareness brings us together or pushes us further apart. Your own nature condemns, not Me. Your worthiness is not the issue. Accepting My forgiving presence is. Your alertness power still resides in your consent."    

Prayer: Lord, forgive my impatience and keep me alert to your path.

Kingdom Guidelines Feb.21

The Spirit reminded me:

        "Remember the realm of My kingdom keeps different values than the earthly conditions.  Values express what is important to follow. The motivation of My kingdom remains complete order, complete honesty, complete resources, and complete success. There are no mistakes or failures like earthly kingdoms. Right doing and mercy vibrate in equal amounts. Your earthly mind can only imagine some of the wholeness of the kingdom, but it is still available for you and all who will enter. Perfect love stays available to you as natural as soothing moisture follows a dry climate."

Prayer: Lord, help me today receive your perfect love in all things.

Awareness Feb. 20

Jesus said to me:

        "When I have instructed you to pay attention to Me, I am saying you must enter a different condition than just intellectual or physical. You must develop your spirit's consciousness because I do not often come to you in a form your human senses understand. My realm stays spirit led. Holy Spirit creates a bridge between My realm and your physical dimension. Your spirit essence can grasp the Holy Spirit when you allow the blending to happen. Just ask. I am never reluctant to give when you can receive. Find a quiet place, rest your mind from talking. If needed watch a tree, a bird, a painting, a flower, a sunset. Let your body go limp and allow yourself to listen. Then I can speak to you more clearly."

Prayer: Oh Lord, help me today shut off the self-talk enough to really hear your message in my spirit.

Work Feb.19

And the Lord said:

       " Often, your culture will say do something to solve a problem. And when you do not have an answer, you fret and worry. This approach lets fear raise its ugly head and creates caution which blocks faith. You need to stop what you're doing, take a deep breath and call upon My presence. Rest in the faith that I am always the avenue of the best answers. Especially slow down when you are extremely tired of this earth. Rest and meditate on Me. Then, you can see better what My more perfect plans are for you and the future. Never let the body drive the spirit. Stop and let the Spirit direct the body."

Prayer: Lord, make me ever sensitive to your Spirit as motivator of life.

Jehovah Grace Feb. 17

And Jesus said:

        "Grace is the Father’s initiative set in motion. The Father’s initiative is His reconciliation. His reconciliation loved you when you did not know to seek Him. He still searches for you in the shadows. By Grace, through your faith, you have been saved."  

Prayer: Lord, help me remove all pride and keep the heart of a servant.

Holy Spirit Energy Feb.16

And God said:

        "I have said I AM the Way, continued consciousness, the creative presence that pulsates throughout the cosmos, even into your personal world. I am always spontaneous, inventing the fresh and the new for your sake. I present a mystery for you. I AM the same but never the same. You can only know ME in the intangible. People are tangible. Human love is tangible. I am here, not out there. If you bury ME, I will stay buried. If you resurrect ME, I will linger with you. More blessed is the one who walks constantly in the Lord, who keeps the way blameless, who seeks ME with all the heart."

Prayer: Oh Lord, help me to rid myself of every unkindness and unloving part of my nature.

Stay Alert Feb.15

And the Spirit said:

"To know HOW to practice MY presence gives power and strength you need to endure this world's struggles. Whatever prayers get answered, whatever healing takes place, whatever miracles you claim----the most significant event is still the time you spend with ME, in MY presence, aware that you are a joint heir in the kingdom. Stay aware by raising your alert ability and know ME daily. Pay attention to the silences. Alertness follows consent."

Prayer: Lord, remind me that every chance you are here.

Knowledge Feb. 14

Holy Spirit said:

        

"Love can penetrate MY realm and kingdom; human knowledge falls short. You cannot know enough about the Father, except through Me. And that may take a lifetime. It may take years to understand one of your days. There is still nothing the Father does not know about you and He will reveal to you all he can. Keep learning, by practicing unconditional love."

Prayer: Lord, thank you that love can be learned with your help.

Word Never Old Feb. 13

Holy Spirit said:

        "I have shown you a constant mystery, even in salvation. The things of the Father keep spreading outward, escalating such that every idea can become new. Once you think you have hold of some truth, look again because I will inject new revelation. You can never get hold of all the Spirit. Freshness is still the motivating, vibrating energy. Newness is linked with forgiveness and praise of the Father. Keep renewing your mind, body and spirit."

Prayer: Lord, renew every part of me today with a fresh outlook at what you do in this world and the next.

What Difference? Feb. 12

Holy Spirit reminded:

"At times, you need to consider what difference it really makes that you call yourself Christian. One major variation of life should be that you make a conscious effort to practice other-centeredness, whether you benefit from the experience or not. When dealing with people who misunderstand you, just say, in Jesus name and continue to serve others the best you can. Do not defend yourself. Remember I am made strong through your weakness. These are the times I can do My miracles. Peace shows loving faith at rest in ME. Over time, mature unconditional love does not have to THINK of acting.......it just responds.

Prayer: Lord, help me respond with your love as natural as breathing.

Irony of Inaction Feb.11

And the Lord said:

"Pursuit of happiness moves you toward comfort. There appears no discomfort in having everything you want. There is no struggle, no growth in too much ease. There is a time to rest in Me but striving only for ease will leave you static and stuck. Soon, you would stagnate like a pond that never receives fresh water. The flesh wants to design life for indulgence. The self wants to accumulate rather than share. This becomes your most subtle war. Remember, you grow through effort of giving yourself away. I taught you to help make disciples. Don’t forget, you are your best disciple."

Prayer: Lord, help me know the best balance between rest and effort for kingdom growth.

Divine Opposites Feb.9

  Holy Spirit said:      

  

 "The needed trust  in the Father instructs you:

* What deserves justice, give mercy.

* What appears painful may be a route to relieve another’s pain.

* What seems dangerous may be the way to true safety.

* What needs to receive your hate, needs your love.

Place confidence in ME, like in a doctor, who must give more pain when he quickly sets a dislocated shoulder. In a vulnerable way, give yourself to Me, like in sleep. MY ways are surer than only human ways."

Prayer: Lord, help me pay close attention to the manner you think and work, instead of strictly human effort.

Unexplained Hurt Feb. 8

Holy Spirit said:

        "When suffering of any kind becomes your condition, do not look backward in time and ask questions like, where is God? Or why did God not intervene? 

Rather ask: How may I remain faithful in this present circumstance?  Is there some way any suffering can honor the Father? Then, tell yourself to look to the present and future of the author of your salvation. I AM still in control. Keep trusting the mystery, especially the puzzle of pain. Truly, you have conquered every pain and death through Me."

Prayer: Lord although I do not understand all suffering, help me turnover any condition to you.

Daily Tasks Feb. 7

And the Lord said:

        "When you make a long trip or go on vacation, you always look forward to arriving at your destination. But if you are not careful, the little activities along the way get overlooked as trivial because you are so focused on the big finish of the trip. You may not feel the little things in life are important enough to bring to Me but perform the everyday tasks in My name. And in My love your whole day will have a better consciousness of the kingdom workings."

Prayer: Lord, thank you for reminding me that every little thing matters when we are linked to your kingdom.

Thinking Feb.6

And Jesus said:

          "On one occasion, I said through My apostle Paul that you should renew your mind and be transformed in nature to discern the will of God. Sometimes you really are what you think. Some days you meditate too much with your emotions, not thinking upon the unlimited resources of the Father. The mind stays an important switch that can be thrown toward negative influences or toward the winning aspect of truth. You are chosen to represent Me. The truth has set you free. As you think in your mind, so you will be."

Prayer: Lord, purify my mind and keep me viewing the right perspectives throughout any given day.

Three Powers Feb. 5

The Lord said:

        

"Love brings power. Joy radiates power. Peace vibrates power. Each sustains unlimited energy. Each current produces wave after wave of spiritual vigor. When you embrace ME daily, you can combine the three to push out every negative and feel my connection more.

        One active way to raise consciousness of all traits: As you walk or drive your many routines, raise your hand palm out toward people and say silently, in the name of Jesus, take love, joy and peace.  This action reminds you of my presence and helps you feel spreading a power-blanket of each process over your fellow human beings."

Prayer: Lord, help me daily to lift my hand for you.

Assurance Feb.1

The Lord said:

        

"The eternal life I have given you sustains the energy that flows through you to restore, heal, and renew yourself and others. Give full awareness to that life for it is the evidence that the Holy Spirit works. As you breathe, say the words, ‘I breathe in the Holy Spirit; I breathe out corruption’. You are secure in that life.

Prayer: Lord, thank you for the security of the Holy Spirit’s presence.
