KINGDOM LIVING - NO CONDEMNATION

Dear One,
    I have told you the benefits of becoming My child, born of My Spirit, baptized in My Spirit and guided by My Spirit,  While in the earth you enjoy My love, My joy, My peace, My mercy, My forgiveness and My goodness.  When you come to live with Me in My heaven, you enjoy freedom from all evil, freedom from troubles, freedom from worry and frustration.  While in the earth, the more you depend upon My Holy Spirit, the more He tutors you how to be worry free, trouble free and free from evil workings while you live in the earth. Your brother Jesus told you that you will have tribulation while you live in the world because of the presence of the devil in the world, but He said that He had overcome the workings of the devil and that you can, too.  (John 16:33) Only with the power of My Holy Spirit in full operation in your life can you destroy the works of the devil just like your loving and powerful brother Jesus did.(I John 3:8)   It is the same powerful Spirit who lives in you who lived in Him.
    I told you some things that you will not have while in the world when you are in Christ Jesus, those being negative, demonic and destructive things.  We talked yesterday about your having no fear when you are rooted and grounded in My love because My love casts out all fear since fear of death comes from fear of punishment.  I asked you to become firmly planted on the foundation of Love from Me because I am Love.  Since I do not see sins because of the covering of the blood of Jesus over the earth which bought forgiveness for you from the devil's works, I have no record of your sins and transgressions of religious and civil laws.     I see you white as snow.  (I John 2:2; Isaiah 1:18-9)
     Another benefit from being while as snow as My child as far as I am concerned is that there is now, while in the earth, no effective condemnation for you from the devil.  That means that you can refuse all condemnation that comes to your mind from hell as an effort to bring you again into slavery to evil.  (Romans 8:1-2) Instead, you can proclaim your righteousness that comes from My Spirit who lives in you and so therefore you are white as snow as far as I am concerned.  (Romans 8:3-6) 
     The only provision necessary for you to be able to throw that truth of "no condemnation" in the face of the devil when he condemns you is that you are born of My Spirit and that you are endeavoring to be guided by My Spirit.  Profess to the devil that you are My child, not his child, and that I made you pure and blameless in My sight by having Jesus suffer the punishment for all of your sins.  The payment was made by Jesus and there is no more need for condemnation on your part by your yielding to the condemnation of the devil whose desire is to beat you down and make you feel condemned and guilty.
    Tell the devil when he condemns you in your mind that there is NO CONDEMNATION for you because you are a new creature with My Spirit living inside of you. (Romans 8:9-10) Even when you miss the mark by yielding to the temptations of the devil, there is no condemnation to which you need to succumb because there is instant forgiveness for you when you forgive yourself.  (John 20:20-23)  You are already forgiven as far as I am concerned because of the covering of the blood of Jesus who suffered that you might not suffer guilt and condemnation.
    When you do something that under the old religious laws required punishment and condemnation, instead of repenting with wailing and begging for forgiveness, you must take the path of My righteousness which is spreading love abroad in the world.  Instead of wailing from the spirit of condemnation, choose My path of love which is what real repentance really is, reversing and taking the good path which leads to My blessings. 
     Repentance is to become loving instead of selfish and self seeking, becoming a peacemaker instead of being a sower of strife, becoming joyful instead of repenting in sacks and ashes, becoming patient with other sinners, people who yield to the devil's temptations.  Repentance is showing goodness to everyone, just as I am good to you.  It is always My goodness that brings a person to repent.  So It is also your goodness that brings a person to repentance.  (Romans 2:4)
     Be guided by My Holy Spirit inside of you and refuse all condemnation.  I make the path straight for you.  Walk on that path that leads to the abundant life, free from fear and condemnation.
     Your Life Giving and Forgiving Father

KINGDOM LIVING - NO FEAR

Dear One,
    To be relieved of the fear of death is the ultimate gift from My Holy Spirit to My children.  I said that the fear of death causes a person to be held in lifelong bondage to the devil.  The cure for that fear is that Jesus Christ died in the flesh, rose from the dead and gave to My children the power and ability to also defeat death and also experience eternal life with Me. So there is no death but there is just a change of address from earth to My heaven where there is eternal love, peace, comfort and joy.  The change of address is not by distance, but it is by dimension.  I said that you are surrounded by My kingdom of heaven, so your spiritual resting place is easily accessed.  It's like moving next door from your present home.  (Hebrews 12:1 and 22-25)
    The fear of death is caused by a demon from hell who poisons the minds of My children with unreal images of judgment and condemnation. (Hebrews 2:14-15) Actually those two actions are reserved for the demons who torment My children.  Judgment and condemnation are only for the demons, the offspring of the devil who are at the basis of all sins.  Those demons are the ones who will experience fires and gnashing of teeth, not My children, only the demons from hell.  My children, who are created in My image, are destined for My heaven to live with Me for eternity in perfect love, perfect joy, perfect comfort and perfect peace.
    I said that because Jesus was tempted by the devil just like you are, He is able to help those who are tempted also, those people being every human being in the earth.  (Hebrews 2:17-18) It is My Spirit who provided the power for Jesus to refuse the temptations and to cast the tempting demons into hell.  It is the same today for you and My other children,  My Holy Spirit, who lives in you, will refuse the temptations and cast the tempting demons into hell   If you, instead, yield to temptations, My Holy Spirit of forgiveness will immediately obliterate and erase any record of those sins,  In My mind they never happened. 
    However, if you continue to hold the memory of sins in your mind, then that is another matter.  I said that what you retained are retained and what you forgive are forgiven.  You must do as I do to have kingdom living in your life, immediately forgive all infractions, sins, transgressions and iniquities, yours and those of other people.  I have no record.  The ony record is in the minds of My children, put there by the devil in order for you to continue in the toxic fear of death.      
    Through My Holy Spirit I provide the antidote for the toxic poison of fear of punishment in death which is put in the minds of people by the devil and religion.  I said that there is no fear in love because perfected love casts out fear.  (I John 4:18-19)  My children must realize, by revelation of My Spirit, that there is no punishment for anything from Me, no memory of bad things done, no book of offenses to which you must answer, no confession or profession of being sinners.  Instead, when My children know that My love covers all mistakes and sins, then there is no fear of death because they know that they will be in the presence of complete Love in whom there is no punishment, judgment or condemnation.  When sins become white as snow, they stay forgiven, no longer in existence.  Jesus died for the obliteration of all sins.  They stay obliterated in My mind. ( Isaiah1:18-19)  
    When you seek the revelation of My love for you, as Paul prayed, becoming intimately acquainted with the depth, width, length and breadth of My love, becoming deeply rooted and grounded in the revelation of My love, then you will be filled with the fullness of My nature.  
    I am Love.  Until you are firmly rooted and grounded in Me as Love, you are open to the tormenting fears of the devil.  (Ephesians 3:14-19)  The devil has no more entrance into your life by infusing fear into your thoughts when you know Me as Love instead of the devil's image that he puts in your mind of punishment, judgment and condemnation, which is a lie.  I am Love. 
    Ask My Spirit for a revelation of My Love.  Total freedom from fear will be the result when you allow My Spirit to teach you about My perfect Love. 
    The result will be that I will be able to do exceedingly, abundantly above all that you dare think or imagine, according to the power of My Spirit of Love that is in you.  (Ephesians 3:20) 
      Love covers all sins and I am Love. 
      Your Father of Constant Love

KINGDOM LIVING - SINS OBLITERATED

Dear One,
    In My Holy Spirit's message through Paul to the Gentiles, the unbelievers, they were told of the wonderful ministry of Jesus and what He accomplished, which was the forgiveness of sins.  Under the old covenant through Moses, all sins required retribution, sacrifices of many different kind according to the type of sin.  Under My new covenant of love, there is no requirement of payment for forgiveness of sins.  My Spirit said that through Jesus came forgiveness of all sins.(Acts 13:38-39)  Sins are obliterated, never existed in My mind, because of the shed blood of Jesus on the cross for the sins of the whole world.  The payment has been made.  The retribution has been paid.  There is no more need for payment for sins.  You are justified and pure before Me.
   Not only did Jesus die for the sins of the world, but He made it possible for all people to be justified, purified and made sinless before Me so that I do not see any sins of people.  I only see their need for My love.  If I were to see the sins of people, then I would make null and void the payment that Jesus made, which is death, resurrection and the sending into people who ask the same Spirit that raised Him from the dead. (Romans 8:11)  So when the same Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead lives in you, you have all of the power of My Spirit to overcome the works of evil in the world which tempts you to sin and also can curse your life with the devil's works. You have the power and ability to refuse the temptations of the devil and cast his tempting demons into hell instead of obeying them and bringing curses into your life.   I do not see the sins and temptations because I do not look upon evil, so My forgiveness is full and complete, erasing sins. 
    But, in the world, your yielding to the devil's works is still a problem for you.  However, even through the problems are still in your life, I give you the Holy Spirit of solutions who can show you the way out of every trap set by the devil. He not only shows you the way out, He gives you the power to defeat the works of the devil. (I John 3:8)
    You must never forget that your life in the earth is filled with battles against the devil and his demons.  Your battles are never with people but they are with the demons who motivate people. (Ephesians 6:11-12) Your battles are never with Me, because I am working to solve your problems and constantly give you a life of love, peace and joy in the earth.  My Holy Spirit is My power source whom I gave to make you victorious over every evil and and troubling problem in the world.  Listen to His words in your thoughts and take His advice and you will live My kingdom life while in the world.  All problems have solutions and My Spirit will solve your problems and show you the way out of the problems.
     Your Loving, Saving Father

KINGDOM LIVING - THE TRAP OF JUDGING

Dear One,
    One of the benefits of My kingdom coming to live in My children in the earth as it is in heaven is the absence of judging in the minds of My children.  My Holy Spirit will work constantly to teach you that judging others will sow seeds in the devil's kingdom and return to you like judgment in the same degree.   Refusing to judge others will keep My children free from the judgment of the devil which brings destruction and death into the lives of My children and their families.  (Matthew 7:1-6)  The return of judgment upon you might not happen immediately or you would connect your judging someone to your being judged in return.  The devil is more subtle than that.  After you judge someone, he is busy, busy, busy working on eventually returning the judgment upon you so that you will not connect your judging others to the judgment that comes back upon you. 
     My children must make it a perpetual habit to bless and forgive everyone whom you deem failing to measure up to your religious or social standards.  If you don't make it a habit to bless instead of condemn and judge, you will slip blindly into the traps set by the devil to suck you into the habit of always judging someone's appearance, actions, attitudes, words, social status, culture, nationality or some other way.  If you do fall for the devil's trap, catch yourself before you are sucked into the quick sand of condemning the person.  You must cast that tempting demon of judgment into hell where there is gnashing of teeth.  Learn from the experience and judge the demon instead of the person.
     The only judgment that I teach My children is the judgment of discerning of spirits.  In discerning of spirits you are judging between My promptings and the devil's temptations.  I give you insight into the demonic spirits that are ministering to others so that you will realize that their negative actions, words and attitudes are not from themselves but they originate in hell, just as the temptations for which you fall also originate.  Judging others is the most effective snare of the devil because he uses religious laws as the measuring means for you to judge others.  The laws were not meant for you to judge others but for you to be able to discern the works of evil in the world so that you will avoid them.  Yet, the devil uses them to tempt you to judge others.
     Jesus made it even more clear in His teachings.  In His teachings about loving your enemies, He described your kingdom actions and reactions toward other people. (Luke 6:27-38) Loving your enemies, doing good to those who hate you, turning the other cheek when stricken, if someone steals from you then you give him more than he took, don't ask for anything back that has been taken from you.   He said that what you desire that men do to you, that you should do to them. Because of the spiritual principle of seed sowing, what you do to them will be done to you in return so you should do good things to all people.
     He said again to love your enemies, do good to others, lend without requiring anything in return and your reward will be great.  You will be identified as My children because I am kind to the ungrateful and to evil people.  Being merciful to religious and social lawbreakers is being merciful and forgiving just as I am.
    Again Jesus reiterated that you must not judge or you will be judged in return with judgment instigated by the devil.  Jesus said not to condemn others or you will be condemned.  Instead, He said to forgive and you will be forgiven, sowing seeds into My kingdom of forgiveness. 
    Gardens grow like crops.  If you sow into the kingdom garden of the devil you will reap plants of judgment from his garden upon your life, things which judge and condemn you.  If you give love, forgiveness and are merciful to everyone, then you will reap the same attitudes into our life from My garden of love.  It's called My kingdom living.  Jesus said to give to others what He has taught you, love, forgiveness and mercy, and you will receive in return the same virtues pressed down and running over will people give to you.  You will reap the same degree that you have given.   It's impossible not to inherit My blessings when you operate from the fruit of My Holy Spirit inside of you.
     It is the same with judging and condemning others.  When you judge and condemn people, you will receive the same judgment and condemnation pressed down and running over from other people as led by the devil.  Your health will be affected, your relationships will be affected, your family will be affected and your length of days upon the earth will be affected.
    Jesus called judgment and condemnation snares.  Traps is another word for snare.  The devil sucks you in by tempting you to judge others and then judges and condemns you for your actions.  My judgment of discerning of spirits will alert you to his temptations if you are walking in the Holy Spirit.
    Blessing others is just as easy as judging others.  You just need to be alert to discern judgment thoughts.  When they come into your mind, immediately bless the person and send the judging demon to hell.
    Your Father Who Delights in Blessing You.

KINGDOM LIVING - FREEDOM FROM CURSES

Dear One,
    I instituted freedom for My children by sending My Holy Spirit to live in them, freedom from the works of evil, freedom from religious bondage, freedom from fear which is the power of the devil, freedom from temptations from hell, freedom from judgments which come from disobedience to religious laws, freedom from social requirements necessary for social acceptance and freedom from condemnation for disobedience.   You are freed from all of them.
     When My Son Jesus paid the price for your obedience to the temptations of the devil, there is no -- listen to me -- there is NO condemnation or guilt that comes from Me for your failure to do what religious laws require.  My forgiveness is universal, always at work and constantly covering your sins, transgressions, your iniquities and your failures. There is no end to My forgiveness. 
    When I said that My blood covers your sins, I meant that there are no infractions from anyone that are evident to Me.  They are all nonexistent because they are covered by the blood of Jesus which was the payment to satan who requires death and destruction for disobedience for sins.  I do not require any payment for your yielding to satan.  The only one who requires judgment and condemnation is the devil who instigated the action.  The blood of Jesus covers over and obliterates all judgment and condemnation, making you white as snow in My eyes. (Isaiah 1:18) I said that because of your righteousness given by My Spirit to you, that you will eat the good of the land.(19)  This universal forgiveness relates to everyone, your loved ones, your enemies, and the meanest, most vile, demon possessed people.  My forgiveness is without recompense.  My children do not need to make payment to Me for their obedience to the promptings of the devil.  The payment has already been made by Jesus Christ.
    To those who are still under religious laws, the devil uses the laws to condemn and judge them.  To those who are under My grace, there are no religious laws to condemn and judge because My grace is sufficient to cover everything.  When you are under grace and forgiveness, there are no religious laws to condemn you unless you are like the Galatians who were sucked back under religious laws  by their religious leaders.
    I cautioned My children who had abandoned My forgiveness and returned to religious laws by telling them that they were foolish to be bewitched and fall for the teaching of leaders who had yielded to the devil and required strict obedience to religious laws again. (Galatians 3:1)  I told them that their receiving My Holy Spirit did not come to them by their obeying religious laws, but came by My love to them, equipping them with the power to resist the laws that brought sin and death.  I said that religious laws had become a curse to them because the devil used the laws to condemn and judge My children.  Some were bewitched by their leaders who yielded to the devil's guidance to put My children under laws of sin and death instead of allowing them to walk in the freedom given by My Holy Spirit who is the dispenser of My guidance to them. (Galatians 3:2-14)
     I said that Christ, the overcoming One, had redeemed My children from the curse of religious laws by becoming cursed for you on the cross. (Galatians 3:13)
Instead of the religious laws, which were ineffective in power, I sent My powerful Spirit into My children so that they would be guided by Me through My Spirit instead of guided by religious laws which the devil uses to condemn and judge.
     The religious laws are not evil, but the devil uses them for his benefit.  They were given by Me to be fleshly tutors on how to avoid evil until My Holy Spirit's power could be given to My children to lead them away from evil and give them the power to defeat evil, to forgive others, to never return evil for evil done to them, to refuse to judge others, and to love others as I love you.
     Instead of loving others as I love them, religious laws make people judgmental of others and fearful of life because religious laws make My children fearful of punishment from Me.  I AM NOT THE ONE WHO PUNISHES.  The DEVIL IS THE ONE WHO PUNISHES for disobeying religious laws. NOT ME.
     If you put yourself under religious laws again, as the Galatians did, you negate the sacrifice of Jesus Christ and you take yourself out from under My forgiving grace and put yourself again under the authority and punishment of the devil.  It is your returning to religious bondage which prompts the devil to entice you to sin so that he can condemn you.  
    I cautioned My children to stand fast in their liberty granted to them by My Holy Spirit and to not be entangled again to the yoke of bondage to religious laws.  (Galatians 5:1) I said that you are fallen from grace back into bondage if you return to the religious laws. (Galatians 5:4-9) 
    Jesus taught that My freedom and love given by My Holy Spirit to My children will leaven and bless the whole lump, the spirit, soul and body of a person. (Matthew 13:22)  Likewise, the curses of religious laws bring guilt and condemnation upon My children, leavening the whole lump, cursing them spirit, soul and body with death and destruction.
    From the beginning I told you that I gave to you free will, the will to choose blessings or curses.  When you choose to return to religious laws, you are choosing to be cursed with fear, condemnation, guilt and other works of the devil.   When you choose My guidance by listening to My Holy Spirit, you will be blessed exceedingly, abundantly beyond what you can dare ask, think or imagine, according to the power of My Holy Spirit that is within you. (Ephesians 3:20)
    Choose My Spirit's counsel and live the abundant life while in the earth and in the world to come.
     Your Power Giving Father

KINGDOM LIVING - TRUTH SERUM

Dear One,
    Spiritual freedom is different from worldly freedom in the way it is attained.  There is only one way to attain spiritual freedom from sin; sin being the works of the devil in your life caused by your yielding to his temptations.  Those works of evil are what give you problems in your life. I told My children the way to spiritual freedom and it is that you will know the truth and the truth will set you free. (John 8:31-32) 
    Every word that proceeded from the mouth of Jesus was truth, but the listeners at the time were unable to access the meaning of His truth because their minds were covered by a veil of unbelief from the devil, of which He so often taught.  That is why I sent My Holy Spirit, the Spirit of Truth, into the earth to live in you and My other children who invite Him to be your tutor, your counselor, your advocate, your healer, your miracle worker, your faith builder, your strengthener, your revealer of truth and on and on.  If you don't have My Holy Spirit inside of you to interpret to you the truths in the teachings of Jesus, then His words are merely theory, void of the power to free you from spiritual curses caused by the devil's intervention in your life.(John 14:14-18; John 16:13-15)  Jesus said that My Spirit would take what I tell Him and explain it to you.  My Holy Spirit's revelations are the only way to attain complete freedom from darkness and destruction.
    I said that the reason that Jesus was manifested in the earth was to destroy the works of the devil.  It's the same ministry that My Spirit does in you, destroys the works of the devil in your life and the lives of your family members.  (I John 3:8)  I said that He would reveal what things in the earth are of sin, which is the devil's family workings, and which things are of righteousness, which are the works that proceed from My family. Only My Spirit can reveal them to My children. (John 16:8-11)  My Spirit shows you how to judge or discern between the two, whether thoughts, attitudes and actions are from My family or from the family from hell. 
    Remember that without the knowledge of truth identifying the devil's works in the earth, people think that I am the father of evil. They do not know the truth that My Spirit taught through James, that only good gifts come from Me, that there is no shadow of turning in Me, no becoming good on one hand and evil on the other hand. (James 1:13-20)
     The ultimate way to glorify Me is by allowing My Spirit to teach My truths to you so that you will be able to avoid all works of evil, allowing My fruits of righteousness to grow in you until you can love everyone the way that I love you.  Jesus said that if His words abide in you, if they become alive and settle down in you by the revelation of My Spirit, that you will bear much fruit and then I will be glorified, and you will be My disciples. (John 15:12 and 17)  The only commandment that Jesus gave is that you love one another as I love you.  He said that if My children begin to love others as I love them, that I will be glorified.  
     You must not be concerned about religiously glorifying Me with your mouths.  That was necessary under My old dispensation of the law which came from My covenant with Abraham.  It was the only way to help My children keep their minds on Me.  My desire is that you bear the fruit of love and then people will see your love and they will glorify Me.  After all, the only commandment of the new dispensation of My Spirit is that you love one another as I love you.  When My words become flesh in you, then you love others as I love you.
    Truths relating to how to avoid evil and how to embrace My goodness all come from My Holy Spirit.  Those truths set you free. Whom the Son sets free is free, indeed!  My truths are the serum which inoculate you against the works of the devil by identifying them and giving you the power to destroy them.
    Go and love others as I love you.
    Your Freedom Loving Father

KINGDOM LIVING - FREE INDEED

Dear One,
    Freedom from tormenting passions of human emotions, judgmental thoughts, legalistic religious regulations and debilitating fears is the ultimate desire of every human being.  Freedom is the desire of the human heart that I put within every person.  The things of the earth that were cursed by the devil when Adam allowed him to take over the earth are the things for which Jesus came to earth to destroy and for which He died as the sacrifice for the devil's sins committed by people.   Freedom is craved by the human spirit.  
    I gave the antidotes for the poison of the words of the devil that enslaves people through tempting thoughts.  Those spiritual antidotes are My personal words which set you free. Jesus introduced that truth to His disciples when He told them that they must continue in His words and that if they did that they would be deemed His disciples.  Then He proclaimed the power of My words which is, "And you shall know the truth and the truth will make you free."  That promise is the foundation of My relationship with My children, that My truth will make you free from all of the works of the devil. (John 8:31-32)
    Jesus added emphasis and importance to His promise when He again said "verily, verily" meaning that they must listen to the truth that follows because it is of utmost important.  He said that anyone who yields to the words of the devil, which is commonly called the temptation to sin, that person becomes the servant of the devil, which every human being does.  No one is sinless.  (John 8:34)  However, Jesus promised that My words do not bring bondage to destruction and death but, instead, My personal words to you will bring freedom from the tempting words of the devil, those being negative, judgmental, accusatory, divisive, strife filled words, destructive words.  He said when He makes you free that you are free indeed. (John 8:35-36)   Freedom from fear and tempting passions of the flesh allow My kingdom to come upon you and in you to give you the abundant life that I promised. Jesus Christ died for you so that you would have kingdom living while in the earth and also in the spiritual world to come, which is My heaven. 
    The truths that Jesus spoke to the Jews were hard for them to believe because they were supposed to be My chosen nation.  He said that they were supposed to be Abraham's children but they did not do the works of Abraham that I commissioned them to do. (John 8:37-38)  The devil had been allowed to invade their minds and use My words given to their forefathers as the measuring stick of righteousness instead of being used as I told them, as a way to avoid the works of the devil.  Jesus told them that He only spoke what He saw Me speak but that they spoke what their father, the devil, spoke.  He told them that they were of their father, the devil, because they obeyed the guidance of the devil instead of the guidance of Jesus through whom I spoke words of liberation. (John 8;42-47)
    The Jews who were listening to Jesus again accused Him of not being of their nationalistic religion but instead spoke from a devil within Himself. (John 8:48)
    Jesus, operating in My compassion, told them that He didn't have a devil but instead He listened constantly to My words and so therefore was free from the influence of evil.  He said that He did not have a devil, but that they did have a devil because they dishonored Him, My Son. (John 8:49-50) Again He said for them to listen intently to His words.  He said that anyone who keeps His sayings will never die.
    The promise of Jesus was fulfilled in the person of the Holy Spirit who came to live inside of My children and speak My words to them which sets them free from every work of evil.  Jesus said whom He set free is free indeed.  There is no other way for humans to be free apart from the sacrifice of Jesus, the rising of Christ from the dead and His sending the power of My Spirit to live within human beings, through whom My personal, powerful, loving, freeing words become My guidance to anyone who accepts My Holy Spirit into their lives.
     When you hear My personal, revealed words to you, you shall know the truth and the truth will make you free.  (verse 32)  There is no other avenue to freedom except through that path.  My truth makes you free, not just free but free indeed.
     Your Liberating Father

KINGDOM LIVING - COME TO THE LIGHT

Dear One,
    Jesus was the fulfillment of the prophesy of Isaiah who said that the people who sat in great darkness saw a great Light; and to them which sat in the shadow of death, the Light sprung up. (Matthew 4:16) He came to earth, He taught and ministered, He died, He rose from the dead, He came to live again with Me and We sent that same Light into the world in the person of My Holy Spirit.  My kingdom of love came to earth to live in My children and that is called the kingdom of heaven or the kingdom of God.  Jesus was recognized by some people as that Light that came to enlighten the people who were engulfed in darkness and sat in the shadow of death.  The people who were freed from the clutches of evil and no longer were baptized in the darkness of the devil certainly recognized whom He was.  The people who were were made alive again and were no longer enslaved by the devil's destruction and death certainly recognized whom He was.  When the Light is turned on inside of a person, all things become clear. 
     John the Baptist preached that My kingdom was at hand, soon to come upon the earth.  Jesus also preached that My kingdom was at hand, soon to be manifested in the earth.  In fact, He even taught the people to pray that My kingdom would come into the earth just as it is in heaven. (Matthew 4:17; Matthew 6:10)  Yet, some of the people still refused to recognize the brilliant Light.  Multitudes of people were drawn to the Light in Jesus, eager to benefit from the healing power of that Light and eager to hear the teachings coming from that source of My Light.  Yet, many of the religious leaders of the day did not recognize Jesus as the Light because their minds were clouded by the veil of religious laws in whom they trusted instead of their having trusted in Me. (John 1:1-14)  They rejected the Light because they loved the darkness created by their laws.
    Jesus taught many times about My Light coming into the world and its availability to people who are seeking answers to their questions, solutions to their problems and guidance into freedom for their entire beings.  He eventually identified Himself for sure as being the Light of the world.  When the scribes and Pharisees brought to Him a woman who was caught in adultery and challenged Him to do what the religious law required, which was being stoned to death, Jesus reminded the accusers of their own sins and then told the woman that her sins were forgiven  and to go and do not sin again.  All of that was contrary to religious and civil laws at the time. (John 9:3-11)
    Then Jesus announced the truth, that He is the Light of the world and that anyone who follows Him will not walk in darkness but shall have the Light of life inside of him or her.  (John 8:12)  "The Light of life" is a wonderful description of My kingdom coming into the lives of My children.  All of the works of the darkness of hell vanish from the person and I place My Holy Spirit's life inside of the person. My kingdom becomes evident in the person with My insight, My wisdom, My love and My peace resident in the person where there was once only darkness.
     Jesus identified the judgment of the Pharisees who judge others according to religious laws as" judging by the flesh."  Then he said that He judges no person, but that if he did judge it was the judgment of discerning the works of the devil working through a person instead of judging the person as evil.  Jesus judged the devil and cast his demons out of people instead of demanding death by stoning for anyone caught in adultery or other sins.  The Light shone in the darkness brilliantly.  The forgiveness that came from the Light of Jesus for the woman caught in adultery blinded the Pharisees who persisted in walking in darkness.  However, other people continued to follow His light and benefit from His ministry of freeing people from the works of the devil and from the Light of His teachings.  Jesus said that His own judgment judged the devil, not people. The religious leaders preferred to judge people. (John 8:15-6)
    Later John the disciple wrote that if you walk in the Light as He is in the Light, then you have fellowship with Me and also with Jesus.  (I John 1:7)  Then He said that the blood of Jesus will cleanse you all of unrighteousness.  My Holy Spirit was in the blood of Jesus, the One who made Him into My Son, of My blood line.  He is My Power who enlightens your mind to the presence of evil sent to destroy you and He is the Power who gives you supernatural ability to cast out the evil that comes into your mind.  There is never any condemnation, as there was none with the woman caught in adultery.  There is forgiveness.
     Come to My Light for everything in life that is perplexing, confusing, oppressive, compulsive, depressing, hopeless and destructive.  I will shine My Light on the way out of every problem and then I will supply the spiritual energy to walk in freedom.
     Darkness will kill you.  My Light will energize and save you.
     Your Father of Light

KINGDOM LIVING - GREAT IN THE KINGDOM

Dear One,
    When Jesus said that My children are the light of the world, He was talking about My children who are motivated by My love, My peace, My mercy, My meekness and so forth as He had identified in the Beatitudes. (Matthew 5:1-12) He had just said that those of My children would be abundantly blessed and be a light in the world and salt in the world that had not lost its taste. (Matthew 5:13-16)  He was concerned that the people would think that He had come to destroy the principles in the laws and the truths in the words of the prophets, but instead He said that He had come to fulfill them.  All of the principles in the religious laws and the truths in the prophesies related to His ministry to the poor, the sick, the demon possessed, the brokenhearted and the crippled, and His dying for the sins of the world.  He accomplished every one of those prophesies.  When He died on the cross, they were fulfilled and the old covenant was finished, as He proclaimed.
     As Jesus identified the attitudes about which He taught, being blessed has nothing to do with the old covenant laws because the laws were powerless to empower My children to do My will.  Not until the coming of My Holy Spirit did My children have My supernatural power to do what I asked them to do in order for them to have kingdom living while in the earth.  Jesus said that anyone who breaks one of His instructions and teaches others to do so is least in My kingdom.  (Matthew 5:19)   His command was always to love others as I love you. (John 13:34)
    When He was teaching about your being the salt and the light in the world, He taught about forgiving others, about never returning evil for evil done to you, about forgiving debts, and about refusing to judge other people.  (Matthew 5, 6, 7)  In those lectures He stressed the importance of doing to others as I do to you because He knew what thoughts, attitudes and actions will open the gates through which My blessings flow into your life.
    Many of the teachings of Jesus were contrary to the written religious laws but instead were revealing the spiritual attitudes behind them which were always My love for My children.  My Spirit wrote through Paul that the letter of the law kills but the Spirit of the law brings life. (Romans 7:6; Romans 8:2; Galatians 5:18)
    Then Jesus said that your righteousness must exceed the righteousness of the scribes and the Pharisees or you will not be able to enter into My kingdom living while in the earth.  In saying that, He said that it had been taught to them that they should not kill but Jesus amplified that commandment by saying that His own insight into My kingdom is that if you are angry with your brother that you are in danger of destruction coming upon you because in yielding to anger you are yielding to the devil and you switch loyalties to another kingdom, the devil's kingdom  If you are in unity with his kingdom you are no longer in unity with Me, so you are in a position to receive the devil's judgment which is destruction and death.  (Matthew 5:19-22)  He said you can't serve two masters. (Matthew 6:24)
    Jesus knew that only by My power of My Spirit are My children able to love as I love you.  His instructions about your righteousness being greater than the righteousness of the scribes and the Pharisees is made possible by the power of My Holy Spirit living inside of you.  When He told them that anger leads to destruction, He knew the demonic spirit behind all killing is anger.  Jesus knew that if you stop your attitudes and thoughts when the demon of anger first enters into your thoughts, that it will not proceed to killings, which is the reason the devil endeavors to make you angry.  Casting out the demon of anger will stop all killings, if My children will only do it.  When you can remember to cast out the demon of anger from your thoughts, your righteousness will be greater than the Pharisees and scribes, as Jesus taught in His seminar.
    His instructions were even more explicit, since at the time the people were still under old testament laws. He told My children that if you are offering gifts at the altar and remember that someone has something against you, that you should leave the altar and make peace with the person, being reconciled, and then go back and offer your gift.  He said you must make peace quickly with anyone who is your adversary or you will end up paying the full price for the adversity in which you engage. 
    Jesus was saying to stop strife when it begins with anger so that it will not proceed to killings. Making peace will always dispense anger.  Forgiving the troublesome faults of others will be bearing their sins just like Jesus did for you on the cross.  He said to take His yoke upon you and learn of Him.
     In taking the advice of Jesus, doing what He says to do in the face of strife,  will allow Me to have an open path from My kingdom to you upon which My blessings flow.  When you become meek and humble, the paths are clear and My kingdom comes to you on earth as it is in heaven. (Matthew 6:10)
     It makes Me ever so joyful when My children receive the blessings of their inheritance from Me because they have followed the advice of My Holy Spirit given through Jesus.   The angels rejoice with Me because they are able to deliver your blessings to you because your righteousness exceeds the righteousness of the scribes and the Pharisees.

KINGDOM LIVING - HONORING THE HOLY SPIRIT

Dear One,
     Jesus called twelve men to be His disciples, to assist Him in doing His work.  In addition to their ministries of healing the sick, casting out demons and cleansing the lepers, He told them to preach that the kingdom of heaven was at hand, in the near future.   Many people believed; many did not.  John the Baptist had baptized people in water but he had proclaimed that their true Savior would come and baptize them with My Holy Spirit. (Matthew 3:11)     
    Jesus was always appreciative of the ministry of John the Baptist.  When John was in prison he sent two of his followers to Jesus to ask if Jesus was truly to whom they had looked forward as the Messiah or should they wait for another.  Jesus told them to tell John that the blind received their sight, the lame walk, the lepers were cleansed, the deaf heard, the dead were raised, and the poor had the good news preached to them. (Matthew 11:2-6)  Jesus told His own followers that, even in John's strange habits, that he was a prophet which prepared the way for Jesus' ministry.
    The next statement from the mouth of Jesus was that until that time there had never been a greater man born than John the Baptist. (Matthew 11:7-11) Yet, He said, a person who is least in My kingdom of heaven is greater than John.  Jesus was prophesying about the coming of My Holy Spirit to live in My children, to be their guide, their strength, their power to overcome evil, their ever constant tutor who would reveal to them the truths in His teachings.  He said that they would be greater than John the Baptist because of My power that would be inside of them. 
    As Jesus continued in His earthly ministry of freeing people from the demons which afflicted them, the Pharisees were threatened at the thought of losing their control over people so they said that Jesus was not casting out demons by His own power but they said that Jesus was casting out demons by the power of the devil Beelzebub.  Jesus gave the people a lecture on a house divided against itself will fall, using as an example the accusations of Him by the Pharisees that He cast out demons from people by the power of the devil.
    Jesus made a more confusing statement to the Pharisees, but His followers believed Him because they had seen His power and believed. (Matthew 12:28)   Jesus proclaimed the power of My Holy Spirit when he said that if He cast out demons by My finger, that being My Holy Spirit, then My kingdom comes upon that person.  He was saying that it is the presence of the devil in the life of a person that keeps My kingdom from becoming present in the life of that person. 
    Then Jesus proclaimed the devil's continued ostracism from My kingdom.  He said that if a person blasphemes Jesus that the person can be forgiven but if My Holy Spirit is blasphemed, then the origin of that blaspheme will never be forgiven, neither in the world nor in heaven.  He was speaking of the devil who is the being who discredits My Holy Spirit at every opportunity.  The devil will never be forgiven for his words which defame My Holy Spirit.  The devil constantly tempts My children to speak negatively against My Spirit but that is not blasphemy.  Blasphemy is attributing the works of My Spirit to the power of the devil.  The devil will never be forgiven for that lie. (Matthew 12;30-32)
     Jesus called the words coming from the mouths of the Pharisees as coming from a generation of vipers.  He asked them how could they be doing anything good, such as healing the sick, since they were evil to the core. (Matthew 12:34)
      Identifying all evil as coming from the devil and all good as coming from Me was the mission of Jesus in this teaching about My kingdom versus the kingdom of satan.  He said to His followers that they must either make the tree good and its fruit good, or make the tree corrupt and its fruit corrupt because a tree is known by its fruit. (Matthew 12:33)
      Then Jesus told a truth that must be understood by My children.  He said that a good person brings good things out of his heart, meaning edifying words, and that an evil person brings evil words out of his heart.   He went further to say that you are judged by every word that comes out of your own mouth, and that by your own words you are either blessed or you are cursed. (Matthew 12:35-37) 
      Cleansing your mouth is just as important as when Jesus cleansed the lepers.
     Jesus defended My Holy Spirit and His power that was at work in Jesus.  Some of My children still refuse to accept My powerful good works as coming from My Holy Spirit.  Yet, they attribute storms, wars, destruction, hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes and other disasters as coming from Me.  They don't know Me.  They also do not know that those destructive actions come from the collective evil words of My own unenlightened children through whom the devil is able to gain permission to do those evil acts in the world.  (James 3:16-18)
      My kingdom is righteousness, peace and joy in My Holy Spirit.  Anything that brings conflict, strife, fear and destruction is not from Me.  If something is not loving, peaceful and patient, it is not from Me.  (Romans 14:17-19)
      My Holy Spirit deserves your honor and attention.  He is My spiritual umbilical cord to you.  He is My life in you.  He is the Spirit of the new and final covenant that I have with humans, which is Christ in you, the hope of a glorious life. (Colossians 1:27)

KINGDOM LIVING - RISING DOUGH

   Another parable that Jesus taught about My kingdom of heaven coming to earth to live in My children and changing curses into blessings is the parable of the woman who took yeast and mixed it thoroughly into sixty pounds of flour until it was incorporated completely into the flour.  Then all of the dough was leavened, raised immensely until the bread that was produced fed many people.  Jesus told His followers that the parables contained secrets that had been hidden from the foundation of the world. (Matthew 13:33-35)
    The secret inside of the parable of the yeast mixed in with the flour which produced a great amount of bread is that when My Holy Spirit comes to live inside of you, His work not only creates a new person in you, but He desires to permeate your mind and your body, raising your whole being to newness of life.  That is called being baptised in My Holy Spirit, when you allow Him to work in your whole person, your mental thoughts, your emotional attitudes and your bodily actions.   When you allow Him to baptize you in My Spirit you give Him permission to change your whole being from one programmed by the devil to one programmed by Me, the Spirit of life.  You do not become more religious.  You become more godly, being schooled in My righteousness.  You become free from religious laws, rules and regulations.  You become more loving, more kind, more merciful, more gracious, more faithful, more loyal, more encouraging, more peaceful and more joyful. (Galatians 5:22-24) Because your whole being is changed into My image, I benefit because My other children see the changes in you and want to know Me intimately because they want the same degree of peace that you have.   Then I am able to bring My wonderful kingdom benefits into the lives of others because they have seen My good works inside of you and want to become My children in a close Father/child way.
   In a bigger scale, think about when the Holy Spirit draws others unto Himself by changing your actions and reactions, when other people begin to live in a close, personal, intimate relationship with Me and become more and more like Me, then the earth is being covered with My knowledge like the waters cover the sea. As others have been redeemed and recreated, as you have been, then the whole earth benefits.  It is written that the whole creation groans under bondage to corruption from the devil until My children are revealed by their love as being My true children.  The whole earth is then redeemed and restored by the unconditional love of My children to others.(Romans 8:18-23)  The more of My children who become conformed into My image in the world, the more redemption is provided by Me for the entire earth, thus the yeast of My Holy Spirit leavens the whole world. 
    Some of My children are satisfied with having only a small part of their inheritance delivered to them, merely the promise of going to heaven.  Others of My children want to take full advantage of the promises of My Holy Spirit, that you will inherit the abundant life, a life full of blessings and surprises from Me while you live in the earth.  It's all possible through being able to hear My voice and take My advice.  I am your Heavenly Father.  I make it possible to inherit all that I have for you.
     Allow My Holy Spirit to enter into your spirit, creating a new being, and then allow Me to baptize you with My Spirit into your mind and body.   When you do, you fulfill the parable, allowing the yeast of My Holy Spirit to raise your life in quality to the excellent degree of My life, perfecting your mind and your body, also.   I do it easily and efficiently.  All I need is your permission.

KINGDOM LIVING- UNDERSTANDING THE PARABLES

Dear One,
    Jesus, Himself, explained to His followers why he taught in parables, which is comparing earthly things with spiritual revelations. He used the parable of the sower of seeds to amplify the truths to them.  He told them first the parable about a farmer sowing seeds on different kinds of grounds, on a path, rocky soil, among thorns, and on good soil.  (Matthew 13:3-9)  He told them whoever has ears to hear, let him hear.
    His disciples inquired why he taught in parables.  He said that the knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of heaven had been given to the disciples but not to many others.  He said that to a person who has revelations, that to that person will more revelations be given and also an abundance.  Then He said to the person who has no revelations, that even what that person has will be taken away.  He said that He spoke in parables because the other people don't see, don't hear and don't understand spiritual things. (Matthew 13:10-14)
    Jesus described the religious leaders whose eyes, ears and understanding were blinded and deafened by the devil using powerless religion.  (Matthew 13:15)  He told His disciples that they were blessed because they had seeing eyes, hearing ears and minds that understood Him. (Matthew 13:16-17)  He said that many people who came before them longed to see, hear and understand like the disciples did, but they could not.
    He launched into a more full revelation of the parable of the farmer who sowed seed.  (Matthew 13:18-23) He explained that anyone who hears the words of the kingdom like he was teaching them and they don't understand, the devil comes and snatches the truths away. The person who receives the words on rocky places receives it with joy, but there is no root in himself, so when tribulations and persecutions come the person is offended. The person who receives the words among thorns are the ones who hears the words of kingdom living but the cares of the world and the deceitfulness of riches choke the truths and the person becomes unfruitful in blessings, as in the rich man finding it impossible to enter My kingdom living.  He said that the people who hear the words of life on good ground and understand it will bring forth 30, 60 or 100 fold of the fruit of My Spirit in their lives.  In other words, there will be a transformation in those people into becoming My images in the world, becoming loving, peaceful, joyful, good, kind, merciful, and patient.  Because of those fruit of My Spirit, the paths from My blessings to them will never be barricaded by the devil.  Blessings will flow unfettered.
    The more My words become flesh in My children, producing My witnesses in the world, the more the benefits of My kingdom living become reality in their lives.  My guidance through the tutoring by My Holy Spirit will change your thoughts, attitudes and actions until you only speak what you hear Me speak and you only do what you hear Me do because you don't follow the voice of a spiritual thief and a spiritual liar, the devil.  You only speak and act like My child because you only listen to My Fatherly advice.
    When you hear My personal revelations to you, you are restored to the same communion with Me that Adam experienced before he allowed the devil to enter the earth.  You will be guided by My Spirit and be led by My Spirit because you know that I have the words of life.  (John 6:68) Blessings will flow into your life in different ratios, depending upon the ratios of fruit produced in your life.  All of the plants of blessings for your future are in the seeds of the fruit that you allow My Holy Spirit to produce in you today.  My seeds grow Life in you and in others.

KINGDOM LIVING - WORDS CREATE

Dear One,
    The importance of words is never completely revealed as to their importance until My Holy Spirit is able to explain it from the inside of you as your tutor.   Even though Jesus taught on that truth time after time, the eyes of My children are blinded to the importance of their words until My Holy Spirit is able to convince you of their importance. 
    Even the truth that I created the world with My words and everything in the world became evident and visual as a result of My speaking words, that truth will come to your mind only as a result of My Holy Spirit's tutoring.   Because you are My child and I have given you authority in the earth just like I have authority in heaven, your words have creative power in the earth. (Genesis 1:1-3; Genesis 1:26) Just like at the beginning when I spoke My words, the Holy Spirit and His angels gathered together the spiritual ingredients which compose material things, and the world was created.  The same is true today in relation to My children.  When you speak, there are either My angels or the devil's demons who are summoned by you to either curse or bless you and other people.
    When Jesus was teaching about blasphemy against My Holy Spirit, He taught on the importance of your words.  He said to either make the fruit, or words, of the tree good and its fruit good or make the tree bad and its fruit bad. (Mathew 12:33-34)  He said at the time that He taught this truth that their generation were vipers because of their words, identifying their words as coming from the devil instead of coming from Me.  The devil was the prince of the world at the time and he had cursed My children with evil thoughts, attitudes and deeds.  Jesus told the listeners that they are either condemned or they are justified by their words, either blessed or cursed by their words. (Matthew 12; 35-37)
    Your positive, merciful, loving words summon My angels to bring My blessings to you but your negative, judgmental, fearful words summon the demons from hell to bring curses into your life. It's that simple.  This is the day of judgment, when My children have the authority through the Holy Spirit in them to cast offensive demons into hell, judging them just like I judged the devil and cast him out of My heaven.  When you join with the devil by speaking his negative, unmerciful, judgmental and offensive words to others of My children, you speak them to Me, calling Me the same destructive descriptions. (Matthew 25:40)
    Later Jesus called a crowd to Himself in order to again teach them something of grave importance relating to words spoken.  (Matthew 15:10-11)  He said that it's not what goes in the mouth that condemns a person, that it's not breaking their restrictive diets as outlined by their religious laws or not washing their hands before eating that condemns them.  He told them what does defile them, and He was emphatic about it. He said that the words that they speak defile them.
     His disciples got upset that the Pharisees were offended by the words of Jesus because their dietary laws were of utmost importance to them, as was washing of hands before eating. Jesus told His followers not to be concerned about the Pharisees because they were blind leaders leading the blind.
     Immediately Jesus taught them in a more clear parable about the importance of the words they speak.  He told them that the food they eat goes through their bodies and then into the latrines. (Matthew 15:17)  But, He said, the things that you speak come from the heart and they defile you.  He said that your words identify the state of your heart and soul, and that those words judge you by summoning into your life either My kingdom to work for you or the devil's kingdom to work against you. (Matthew 15:18)  He said that evil thoughts of murder, adultery, fornication, thefts, lying and blaspheming all come out of the mouth and define the speaker who speaks them.
     The insight of Jesus was clear and concise, telling the listeners that there are things that defile a person, but that eating with unwashed hands does not defile a person, even though their religious teaching cautioned against it.  He reiterated time and time again the importance of the words that you speak, that if they are negative, demeaning, judgmental, divisive, angry words against someone, that you will be judged, condemned and defiled by those words.
      That parable was an important one, as is all of them.   But when you fully understand the power of your words, you will know that they either bring blessings or curses into your life.  Develop a filter through which you judge your words before you speak them.  That is why I told you to be slow to speak.  If you are in a hurry to speak, you will not judge your thoughts before you speak them and you will end up speaking negative words which curse yourself and your family.  But if you are slow to speak, you will have time to discern from where the thoughts come, from heaven or from hell.  The positive ones are from Me and you will be blessed if you speak them because they will be loving words which edify others (Ephesians 4:29-32)

KINGDOM LIVING - ACCEPTING PARENTAL ADVICE

Dear One,
    Many times, My own children who call themselves by My name punish their own children for not taking their advice, obeying their commands or following their orders when all the time My own children are doing the same in their lives in response to My valuable advice, admonitions and instructions.  I said through Jesus many times that if His followers love Him and Me that they will take our advice and do what we say.
    Our advice, admonitions and commands are not given as a test of your love for Me.  They are insights, wisdom and strategies to assist you in order to avoid the devil's traps in your lives so that you will be able to maneuver away from the devil's traps, take authority over them and as a result be in a position to inherit My blessings which I have stored up for you.  Because I love you, I have given My words of protection to you; and, if you love Me, then you will trust My guidance and do what I have instructed you to do.  Every word that I speak and every instruction that I give you are to enhance your opportunities to clear the avenues from My kingdom to you from where My blessings flow. 
    After teaching many sessions on the advantages to receiving My kingdom in your life, the followers of Jesus at the time and you today are tutored by Jesus about love and about obeying My instructions if you love me. (John 15:9-10)  Jesus said that I love Him and so He has love for you and that you must continue in that love.  Then He gave the results of your love for Me, saying that if you love Me that you will obey My instructions. In fact, He said that continuing in His love depends upon your taking His advice and obeying His instructions, because He knew that your refusing to take His advice would cause you to fall into the traps set by the devil and you will have to experience the devil's punishment for uniting with him.  A good parent's instructions are always for the protection of the child.  Every instruction that I give and every admonition that I give are for your protection from falling for the devil's traps.
     I spoke to you through Jesus by telling you that I am teaching you valuable things so that My joy will remain in you and that your joy will be full. (John 15:10-11) Right there in those few words are the truth behind why I instruct you to do certain things, such as love one another. so that you will have a joyful life while in the earth.
     I reiterated the truth of the assurance of My love overcoming all evil again when I instructed, in fact commanded, that you love others as I love you.  (John 15:12-13)  I said that there is no greater love than to lay down your life for others, not only referring to the death and resurrection of Jesus, but letting you know that when you lay down your normal reaction of returning evil for evil done to you, and when you refuse to react by returning evil to someone's anger, division, judgment, disgust, prejudice, ranting, raving, cruelty or criticism for you or for others; but that if you, instead, love them even in their demonic tirades, then you are laying down your life and loving them as I love you.  That is true love, to lay down evil reactions and instead love the person through whom the devil is working at the time.  You die to the evil just the way Jesus did on the cross.  When you can do that, because of My love within you, then your joy will be full because My joy will be in you.
    If you want joy in your life instead of the normal miserable existence that occurs in the lives of most people who do not know My love and My overcoming ways, then you must -- I reiterate -- you MUST follow My valuable instructions on how to remain in My love and in My joy.   They are given for your good, that your joy will be full. 
     Jesus spoke again of His command to love others when He said that He has chosen you to be an image of My love in the world so that you will bear much fruit through My fruit of love in you.  (John 15:16-17)  Then He gave the ultimate promise that a Father can give to His children, that when you remain in My love, being the source of My love to everyone, that what you ask of Me, I will give it to you.   Then Jesus commanded you again to love one another. 
    If you are sensing a theme in this one teaching of Jesus, it is My instructions that the only command, instruction or admonition I give to you is that you love others as I love you.   Earlier I said through Jesus that all of the old laws, rules and regulations are contained in the command to love others as I love you.   If you love others as I love you, then you are obeying all of the old rules and regulations.  When you love others as I love you, all of the paths from My heaven to you which carry My blessings are propped open and stay open as long as you continue in My love.  The only way to ensure that barriers are put again on the path of My blessings to you is if you act or react to the temptation of the devil in order to harm someone by thought, word or deed.   Love keeps the path clear and I rejoice that you have chosen My blessings and My love.

KINGDOM LIVING-FATHER, SON, HOLY SPIRIT

Dear One,
    The image in the minds of people that I am One God, Father,
Son and Holy Spirit, is hard to imagine because My children are so flesh minded.  However, when you consider that you are a human trinity, made up of body, soul and spirit, yet you are one being, then it should be easily understood. Your body is merely your earth suit that houses the real you, the spirit that comes to live with Me in My heaven after the earth suit wears out.  Your soul is your mind, you computer that I gave to people to store and reason about information which comes into it. Your mind, or soul, is the part of you through which I communicate with My children.  However, since Adam allowed the devil to run rampant in the earth, your mind is also the part through which the devil tempts My children; hence the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. (Genesis 2:16-17)  
    Jesus tried to make it clear to His followers that He, the Holy Spirit and I are one being with different functions just like your body, soul and spirit are one being but serve different functions in your life to make you a whole being.  Before His telling about My Holy Spirit coming to take up residence in their spirits, He affirmed and confirmed many times that He and I are One.  (John 14:6-11) He had to get that truth across to His followers so that they would understand that when My Holy Spirit came to earth to live in people that they would be My temples, My dwelling places in the earth.  Over and over He told them that We are one and even prayed that they would be one with Me just like He is one with Me. (John 17:20-23)
    All of that was in preparation for Jesus to tell His followers about the entrance of My Spirit into the lives of people so that they would be My earthly temples, My earthly mansions of which Jesus spoke. (John 14:1-2) His death, resurrection, ascension into heaven and sending My Holy Spirit into My children, who empowered Him while He ministered in the earth, was complete.  His mission was accomplished. He no longer had a  need of My Holy Spirit's power while in heaven with Me, so He sent My Spirit into the earth to live in My children who believe in Me and in Jesus Christ, empowering them to do the same thing that He did in Jesus, defeat the works of the devil in the earth. (I John 3:8)
    That valuable teaching of Jesus preceded His proclamation that He was leaving the earth, but that I was sending another Comforter who would be in them instead of merely with them.(John 14:15-18)  First, Jesus had to convince His followers that We are one, Father, Son and Holy Spirit.  They had little knowledge of My Holy Spirit being My authoritative power and dynamite power which would empower them with the same supernatural abilities that He empowered Jesus.  That fact took a lot of His convincing, yet the followers of Jesus were still concerned about Jesus coming back and restoring Israel to world power.  They were not interested yet in their having power and authority over the devil in the daily lives through kingdom living.
    Jesus went further to convince His followers that He and I are one by telling them that the words that He spoke were not His words but they were My words because We are one being. (John 14:19-11) You can understand the temptations of their minds to reject that truth, because it takes the revelation of My Holy Spirit to pierce through the veil of unbelief put in the minds of people by the devil. Jesus said that when the Holy Spirit came to earth to live in them that they would understand what He was teaching them at that moment. (John 14:19-20)
    The truth taught by Jesus that He and I are one being and that My Holy Spirit is one with us with the ability to make My children one with Us is a mission that is given to My Holy Spirit, the Spirit of Truth.  Only when My Spirit comes to live in your own spirit can I infuse you with that truth, which is Christ, the overcoming One, the hope of glorious living while in the earth. What He accomplishes is bringing My words into the lives of My children again just like I had with Adam when we communicated perfectly before the devil came between us and blocked My words.
    From the inside of them, My Holy Spirit speaks to My children My healing words, My words of deliverance from destruction and death, My words of life, My words of wisdom, My words of hope, My word of faith, My words of joy, My words of love, My words of mercy, My words of grace, My words of goodness and kindness, My words of patience, My words of steadfastness, My words of freedom.
    I found a way to get My personal words into the lives of My children.  It is through My coming to live inside of you in the person of My Holy Spirit, infusing My words into your human mind from the inside of you, all of which brings a revelation of My love and freedom from evil by the explosive power of My Spirit residing inside of you.
    My plan worked.  Now My children must realize the majesty of that plan and appreciate the treasure that I put in your human body.  He is My very own Spirit. (John 17:25-26)

KINGDOM LIVING - WALK IN THE LIGHT

Dear One,
    Jesus continued to use normal earthly things in order to compare them to His truth.  Before His death, He wanted His followers to be comforted by the fact that He was only following My orders and that His death and resurrection would benefit them also, as well as His doing My will in dying for the sins of the whole world.  In a parable He compared His death and resurrection to a grain of wheat, saying again "verily, verily" in order to get their complete attention because what was going to follow was a truth that they must understand.  He said that unless a grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it cannot bring forth more fruit.  He encouraged the listeners who desired to serve Him to continue following Him.  He said that where He was going, that His servants would also be allowed to go.  He promised them that if they would follow Him that I would honor them. (John 12:23-26)
    When Jesus asked them what should He say to Me, that He should let this cup pass from Him?  Then He answered himself and said, no, that this very thing is the reason that He came to earth, to die for the sins of the whole world and then to be raised from the dead and become alive again. 
    I spoke My Amen to His statements when I spoke from heaven, saying that I had glorified Him and I would glorify Him again.  Some people heard and said that an angel had spoken and other people said that it only thundered.  Those who believed, heard My words.  Those who did not believe only heard thunder. It is the same in your world today: some hear My voice and others only hear thunder. Jesus said that the words came from heaven for the benefit of the hearers.  (John 12:28-30)
    Then Jesus proclaimed the truth that the devil would lose his authority in the earth because of what Jesus was going  to do in hell before He rose from the dead.  He said that because He would be lifted up from hell that  He would be able to draw all people to Himself.  The people quizzed Him about the law saying that Christ would live forever and now Jesus was saying that the Son of man would be lifted up. They asked who the Son of man was. (John 12:31-34)
    Jesus answered that the Light was with them for a little while but now it was going to not be with them for a short while.  He told them to walk while the Light was still with them because darkness was going to come upon the earth.  He identified the people who walk in darkness, saying that they don't know where they are going.   He cautioned the listeners to continue in the Light and to believe in the Light.
     My children become light when they accept My Holy Spirit to live in their spirits and then allow Him to permeate their entire body, causing them to become My witnesses of love in the earth.  (Luke 11:35-36)
    Jesus said that you are the light of the world and that He is the light of the world. He said that you must shine as a bright lamp in the earth, lighting the way for others to see the path to Me.
    The demons who have not been cast out of the earth will still try to snuff out the light that is inside of you.  He does it by putting cares, worries, fretting, fear, guilt, condemnation, strife, doubt and unbelief into your thoughts.  When that happens, know that the devil is trying to rob from you your joy, your love and your peace.  Cast him out from you and the earth into the abyss.  I cast him out of My heaven and you have the authority, as My child, to cast him out of your world and into hell. When you do, your light shines brighter and brighter. (Philippians 2:15)
    When you become My light in the world, as Jesus is the Light, then you must protect the light, treasure it and enjoy its benefits, which are many. Praying in the Holy Spirit will build up spiritual power, which is called faith.  Pray in the Spirit and walk in love with everyone and you will never forfeit the light that I give to you.
    Your Light Giving Father

KINGDOM LIVING - THE ABUNDANT LIFE

Dear One,
     Jesus never stopped using parables to teach about My kingdom and My righteousness.  Remember that Jesus used the parables to compare incidents about earthly life to truths about spiritual life or kingdom life.  In one teaching session He taught about good shepherds and bad shepherds and their influence upon My sheep. 
    First of all, in that story Jesus identified the true shepherd and the false shepherd.  Since the people were unschooled in the works of the devil, they didn't know anything about that to which He was referring, but when My Holy Spirit is allowed to be the tutor from the inside of a person that person is able to know the truth contained in that parable.  He introduced this truth by saying "verily" meaning that what you are about to hear is indeed true.  In fact, to emphasize the importance of the truth Jesus said, "verily, verily"  to emphacise that hearers should listen intently and believe what He was about to say. 
    Jesus told the people the difference between Himself and the devil and how each one entered the world.(John 10:1)  The devil used deception to enter, deceiving Adam to allow him entrance into the world that I had created for people.  Deception from the devil blinded Adam's eyes to who the devil really was, and Adam yielded his will to the devil by believing the devil's words as well as believing some of My truths which were used by the devil to deceive Adam.  That is identified as the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.  So all humanity was then cursed by the devil by his having their spiritual eyes blinded so that they cannot recognize what is of Me and what is of the devil.  Jesus called the devil a thief and a robber, robbing My children of a relationship with Me and as a result robbing them of all of their inheritance that I have for them.  (Genesis 2:1-7)  
    Jesus entered the world legally, as far as the heavens are concerned,
Jesus, My son, entered the world through being born of a woman.  His authority in the world was established because I gave the earth to people, giving them dominion over the earth and everything in it.  So when He was born of a woman, He entered the earth legally and is the real shepherd of My sheep, My children.   (John 10:2)  He said that the porter opened the door, meaning My Holy Spirit impregnating Mary and opened the door to the earth through whom Jesus was born and made Him legally the Savior of the world. (John 10:3) 
    My voice is again recognized by My children who have received My Holy Spirit, just like Adam knew My voice in the beginning before he allowed the devil to deafen him to My words. Jesus said that His sheep know Him and know His voice, and they follow Him wherever He goes before them.  They follow Him because they know His voice.  The voice of a stranger, one who entered the world through deception, My children will not follow that voice; instead, they will flee that voice of deception, death and destruction. 
    The parable only confused the people more.  so Jesus explained it more clearly to them. (John 10:6)
    He said that He is the door of the sheep because He came into the earth legally, through being born of a woman. So He has legal right to redeem the world from sins, death and destruction. (John 10:7-9)  He said that all who came before Him, the religious laws, rules and regulations, were also thieves and robbers also because the devil used the laws to condemn and heap guilt upon My children. (Romans 7:5-6; Romans 8:2-4)  Jesus said that the religious laws were only a hireling, given to try to keep My children on the right paths, but He said when the wolf, the devil, comes that the laws leave because of their weakness and the wolf catches the sheep and scatters them.  That is what happened with religious rules, regulations and laws. He said that they scattered because they didn't care for My sheep. (John 10:12-13)
    Jesus declared His legally entering the world through being born of a woman, being My Son, because My Holy Spirit overcame Mary and she became pregnant with My Son.  Jesus, the Savior, entered the world legally, being Son of Man/Son of God.  Jesus, the good shepherd, according to the parable, entered the sheepfold legally and My sheep know His voice and He knows them. (John 10:14-18)   Because of His being a Son of Man, he could die for the sins of the whole world, accepting the punishment for all the infractions of the religious laws of all people which were tempted by the devil. (John 10:17-18)
    Jesus declared that there were others of My children that were not of their fold and that they would also be brought into My kingdom to receive My blessings.  He prophesied that there would be one family with One Shepherd. He was speaking of the inclusion of the Gentiles, or unbelievers.   Then He also declared that He would lay down His life and take it up again of His own free will because He had been commissioned to do it by Me.
    That parable told the history of the devil, of the law, of sin, and of redemption because of Jesus coming into the world legally in order to die for the sins of the world. 
    This parable made some of the Jews so angry that they called Him a demon, a mad man.  Other people disagreed and said how can a demon heal a blind man? (John 10:19-21)
     It is the same in your world today.  Some believe and some find it hard to believe.  Pray for the unbelievers that they might believe and learn to live My kingdom life in the world and in the world to come.  Jesus said that He came to earth so that you might have life and have it more abundantly. (John 10:10)  You can facilitated it by the power of My Holy Spirit.
     Your Loving, Shepherding Father

KINGDOM LIVING - SEEING THE KINGDOM

Dear One,
    The first reference of Jesus to humans relating to receiving My kingdom into their lives was made to a Pharisee named Nicodemus who had commented to Jesus that He surely must be My Son because of the miracles that He did.  Jesus did not refer to My kingdom coming to Israel to make it a world leader, which was expected and anticipated by everyone,  but He said that a person must be born of My Spirit to see and experience My kingdom.  He said that people, not a nation or a dynasty, but people could experience My kingdom.  After the Pharisee questioned Jesus about how silly it was to think that a man could climb back into his mothers' womb and be born again, Jesus cleared it up when He said that a man must be born of water, as in the natural birth process, and he must also be born of My Spirit, and then he can enter into My kingdom.  Clearing it up further, he said that being born of flesh is flesh but being born of the Spirit is spirit.
     There was little knowledge to My children at the time about My Holy Spirit.  Jesus gave again a comparison, saying that when the wind blows that a person cannot tell from where it originated or where it's going, but a person can hear the sound of the wind.  He said that being born of My Spirit is similar. (John 3:7-8; Acts 2:1-4) Nicodemus was really confused by that time because he was very flesh minded instead of spiritually minded, plus he had been taught that the Messiah would set up His kingdom in Israel and make Israel a world leader again.  Jesus was talking about people being born of My Spirit and entering into My kingdom while living on earth.  He reminded Nicodemus that no one had gone to heaven yet but that He, God's Son, had come from heaven to earth.  (John 3:9-11)  He gave the first hint of what was to be His mission on earth, which was to be lifted up in the resurrection.  Jesus made a new and unusual comment, that whoever believed in Him would not die but would have eternal life.  (John 3:13-15)
     After that comment, Jesus spoke a new revelation to My children, that I loved the world so much that I gave My Son so that whoever believes in Him will not perish but have My very own life within him or her. (John 3:16-17)  If that wasn't revolutionary enough, that I love the world, Jesus stated that I did not send My Son into the world to condemn it.  That was mind blowing also because many of the prophets had insinuated, in an effort to get people back on My track instead of the devil's track,  that I was angry, perturbed and vengeful toward everyone in the world.  Here was My own Son telling a man, a Pharisee at that, that He had come into the world to save it, not to destroy it.  All of those words were hard for a mere man to understand because of prior religious teachings, but they were coming out of the mouth of My Son. 
    Jesus gave the criteria by which a person could escape being condemned and that was through merely believing in Jesus as My Son and believing the words that He taught. (John 3:18-19)  He even told Nicodemus that a person was condemned already if he or she did not believe in Him as My Son.  Jesus explained that the devil's darkness was in the world and that darkness hates light because their actions were evil.  He said that light had now come into the world and everyone who does evil hates the light because of not wanting their deeds to be revealed. (John 3:20-21)
     Then Jesus stated that anyone who loves truth comes to the light so that his or her good actions will be manifest because they originate with Me. 
     These truths, the first truths about My kingdom coming to live in and around people, were looked at as being unimportant because the minds of people were dulled by evil so that they could not receive the full impact of My truth.  The truth that, number one, I love the world was hard enough to believe but then to state that individual people would be born of My Spirit in order to enter into My kingdom instead of My Son coming to earth to restore Israel to world prominence was too much to believe at the time. They were patriotic beyond reason, as influenced by the devil.
     My kingdom comes inside of you in the person of My Holy Spirit and it surrounds you with My cloud of witnesses which help you in your time of need, as orchestrated by My Holy Spirit.  The possibility for individuals to have glorious living while in the earth is a promise and a reality.
     Instead of setting up a kingdom on earth that is of a country or a nation,  I chose to set up My kingdom inside of My children so that they will reign in life as My privileged children, blessed in every area. 
     I assured you that you must seek My kingdom and My righteousness and then everything that I have set aside for you as part of your inheritance will come to you.  You become a servant and serve My kingdom to others.  Kingdom living in the earth belongs to you.
    Your Father and Dispenser of Kingdom Living

KINGDOM LIVING - EXPERIENCING THE CLOUD

Dear One,
    Peter and John experienced My kingdom coming to earth before the day of Pentecost when they accompanied Jesus to a mountain to pray.  He had told the disciples and others that some some of them would see My kingdom before they died.  Eight days later, when they went to the mountain with Jesus, they reveled in My kingdom as it was evidenced ministering to Jesus.  (Luke 10:27-28)
    As Jesus prayed, His entire countenance changed and He was white and glistening as My kingdom enveloped Him.  Moses and Elias appeared to them in their glory and spoke to Jesus about His death which was shortly to come at Jerusalem.  Peter, who had been asleep, awakened and saw My glory surrounding Jesus, Moses and Elias.  (Luke 10:29-32)  Peter, always the practical one, without thinking offered to make tents for Moses, Elias and Jesus.  As He spoke, there came a cloud and enveloped Moses and Elias.  They entered into the cloud, the manifestation of My kingdom.  I spoke My identification of Jesus when I said, "This is My Son.  Listen to Him."  After I spoke My firm identification of My Son to them, Jesus was there alone.  Moses and Elias had re-entered My heavenly kingdom. (Luke 10: 33-36) Jesus had prophesied that some of his disciples would see My kingdom before they died.  Peter and John had surely seen with their natural eyes the glorious presence of My kingdom coming to earth temporarily. 
     That wonderful situation happened because of My unconditional love for My Son Jesus.  I wanted Him to be prepared for what was ahead of Him, His death, His trip to hell as payment for the sins of the entire world, His resurrection and His walking the earth for 40 days ministering about My Holy Spirit and My kingdom.
     In the world today, when a person is born of My Spirit and baptized in My Spirit, there is an immediate change inside the person.  There is a glorious transformation that takes place that is equal in importance to the situation that happened on the mountain.  Old things pass away and all things become new. My kingdom becomes number one in importance because of experiencing My glorious kingdom of love.  Jesus had said earlier that looking back at the old life or going back to the old life and its demonic influences is equal to Lot's wife who turned to a pillar of salt when she looked back at the destruction.  My desire is that you become dead to the old life and you are alive to newness of life. (Luke 10:23-26)
     My Holy Spirit told you in your Instruction Book that you, also, are surrounded by a great cloud of witnesses consisting of the city of the living God, an innumerable company of angels, the assembly of the firstborn whose names were written in heaven, the spirits of just men made perfect, Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, the blood of Jesus, and Me, I am the one who judges evil spirits, casting them into the abyss. (Hebrews 1:1 and 22-24)  He admonished you to lay aside every weight and sin that so easily comes upon you so that you can run with patience the race that is set before you, looking only to Jesus who is the author and the finisher of your faith, looking to how He defeated the works of the devil so that you can have kingdom living in this life and in the life to come. (Hebrews 1-2)   I cast the devil out of My heaven and now you must cast his demons out of your earthly life and earthly home by the power of My Spirit.  
     Seeking to intimately know Me like I know you, as Paul said he did, is what qualifies you to live in My kingdom benefits while you are still in the earth.  The more intimately that you know Me, the more My blessings are able to be ushered into your life because My kingdom becomes more evident in your life.  One never knows a person until he or she spends quality time with the person.  It is the same spiritually, spending quality time with me one-on-one in total communion with Me will allow Me to fill you with truth and teach you the principles of My family.  My Holy Spirit is the Spirit of Truth and He is eager to fill you with My truth which sets you free from death and destruction in every area of your life. 
     You are not alone.  My kingdom is already yours because of My Holy Spirit living inside of you.  You are also surrounded by My kingdom of love, as evidenced by Peter and John when two of My cloud of witnesses became evident to them..  You only need to spend time with Me for it to be evidenced in your life.  The more time you spend alone with Me, the more you become the light on a hill, lighting the way for others to know Me because of your enjoyment of kingdom living. 
     Your Kingdom Living Father

KINGDOM LIVING - COMPLETE FREEDOM

Dear One,
     After His crucifixion Jesus told His followers several times that He would come back to them and He did, not once, not twice, but many times.  When the women told the disciples that the tomb was empty and that Jesus had risen from the dead, the disciples were not excited, thinking the story of the women was idle gossip, even though they remembered what He had told them. (Luke 24:10-11) Peter ran to the tomb to check out the story that the women had told to the disciples. (12)
    Two others went to another city and while they were discussing the current events together Jesus appeared to them and asked why they were sad. (Luke 24:13-20) One of the two commented that the man must be a stranger to not know what had happened in their city and he must be ignorant of the things which were to occur. The two told Jesus about the death of a great prophet and how it had been three days since the event and nothing had happened so far to redeem Israel, their beloved country.  They were still ruled by concern that Israel would have world dominance instead of being assured by Jesus previously that My promise is to all people, not to nations or denominations or religions. (Luke 24:21)  Jesus had formerly told them that His return would be visible to individuals on house tops or in the fields.  However, they told the stranger, who was Jesus Himself, that the body of the prophet had disappeared from its burial place.  Their hope of My kingdom coming to earth was to restore Israel to prominence, and it was their only concern. 
     Jesus called them foolish and asked them if they did not remember the prophesies concerning Him. (Luke 24:25-26) He gave them a quick course in explaining the prophesies concerning Himself all the way back to Moses.(Luke 24:27)  They rested later and that is when Jesus blessed bread, gave it to them and their eyes were opened and they knew whom He truly was. 
    Later, on the day of Pentecost when Jesus appeared to the many people who had obeyed Him and had gathered in Jerusalem for what Jesus had promised them was going to happen, they were still believing that the sacrifice of Jesus happened so that Israel would be returned to world dominance, and they asked Jesus, who had appeared to them again earlier, if that was the time that the kingdom would again be restored to Israel.  (Acts 1:2-8)  Their extreme patriotism had blinded them to My truth, the truth that I was to enter into their own spirits and make My earthly home in them, bringing My kingdom into the lives of individuals instead of a country.  The demon of extreme patriotism still blinds the hearts of people today, convincing people that their country is their savior. 
    As I told you in the past, I admonish you to be obedient to the governing authorities, rendering to your governing bodies what they legally require, but not looking to them to be your god.   Extreme patriotism is blinding because it is the spirit of idolatry.  It was evident in the Israelites at the time when Jesus walked in the earth and it is still evident in counties at this time.  I told you through Jesus to only give to your country what is required of it, paying taxes and being obedient to its laws, but do not give the devotion to your country that you would give to Me.  We are not the same entity.  I am the God of love, compassion and peace.  Countries have their own gods of war, conflict and domination.  I said you can't serve two masters.  You cannot put your complete trust in your country's government and also put your trust in Me.  They are most often opposed to one another. 
    Don't be like the Jews were at the time and still are, so blinded by the devil that they are still waiting for their Messiah to restore Israel to world prominence.  Jesus was crucified for the sins of people and He sent My Spirit into My children, not into the governing bodies of any country.  My Holy Spirit will show you who is important to Me and it's always the people who have been assaulted by the devil, the poor, the sick, the brokenhearted, the fainthearted, the demon possessed, the oppressed and the depressed. Most often, those people have been oppressed by their governmental officials who have robbed from them, enslaved them and put them into bondage to religious laws.
     Rejoice, the price has been paid for your sins and the sins of the whole world by Jesus Christ. (I John 2:2) 
     Rejoice!  He rose from the dead and We sent My Holy Spirit into the world to be received by those of My children who seek Me and My righteousness.  All things will be added to the lives of My children who become My righteousness through My Holy Spirit's indwelling them. (Matthew 6:33)  
     Rejoice!  My plan that was hidden from the foundation of the world has been facilitated.  It is Christ inside of you, the hope of living a glorious life in the earth and in heaven, free from the works of the devil and having the ability to enjoy complete communion with Me, the designer of your entire universe.  (Colossians 1:27)
      Rejoice!  If I am for you, then who can be against you?  No one.  Not even the gates of hell.
      Your Joyful Father of Freedom
