LISTEN TO COUNSEL

Dear One,

Be sure and listen to your counselor, My Holy Spirit. We have your best interest at heart. We want the highest and best for you. We want you to let Us guide you into the right paths, the paths of righteousness, where there are no obstacles that can plague you.
We want you to always be able to rely upon Our guidance and Our counsel.
You recognize Our voice because, like I said, the sheep know the voice of the shepherd.
Be sure that you wait until you have complete guidance from Me before you venture out into unfamiliar waters.
Remember that your inner radar is My Spirit who knows all and sees all. He will make sure you take the right paths because He knows the enemy wants to destroy all of My children by trickery and deceit. That's why you need My Spirit, because He is your protector and guide and comfort and wise counselor. Jesus relied on Him completely. Jesus knew that My Holy Spirit delivered My words to Him. He knew the value of My Comforter.
My comfort, My guidance, My power and My protection are inside of you.
Heed His words. He wants to do the same things that I want to do for you. He wants to make sure you have productive, successful ventures so that your days in the earth are happy.

Love, God
John 10:2-5; John 14:15-17; John 15:7-12 and 24-27; John 16:7-15; Ephesians 3:16-21.

Values

Dear One,
The things you value in life depend upon many things, your heritage, your family, your economic status, your experiences, your education, your associations and your religious training.
You have found that the more intimately acquainted you are with Me, the things you value become the intangibles like love, kindness, goodness, peace, mercy, joy, wisdom, spiritual knowledge and revelation.
When you give value to the things that are important to Me, you begin to seek for them to be more evident in your life. I mean that you begin to value spiritual things more than earthly things.
Spiritual things are eternal. They do not deteriorate or dissolve or decay. They bring life instead of death.
The spiritual things that you value will change you, change others, and change your world.
Earthly things that people value are temporary and only bring emotional pleasure for a short time, then they begin to seek more and more earthly things because they never truly satisfy.
When you value something, you give importance to it and you give life to it. So in doing that, you give it power over you.
Give importance and give power and give life to spiritual things. They do not try to gain power over you. They satisfy you and last forever in you and in others.
When you seek spiritual things, then everything of importance will be added to you.
Love, God

ASSUMPTIONS AND PRESUMPTIONS

Dear One,
Don't get caught up in assumptions, judgments and presumptions or you will open the door for judgment spirits to invade your life. All they need is a small open door and they will begin working on returning your assumptions, judgments and presumptions to you by other people who will be assuming and presuming things about you and then judging you. Seeds produce plants.
Your habit of judging outwardly is always short sighted and based upon part truths, half truths and imaginations.
Instead of assuming, presuming and judging, you must extend mercy, compassion and love to the person when you are tempted to judge the person.
Also you must not get caught in the trap of forming opinions or judgments speedily without concrete evidence. Even if the opinions prove to be true, you must still extend mercy and compassion and love. It's the least you can do for your brother or sister who was tempted beyond his or her ability to resist the demon who instigated the action.
Remember who our enemy is. Your enemy is not flesh and blood but it's always demons who tempt people.
I see your spirit and I forgive your mistakes. Extend the same grace to others and you will walk free of judgment from others.
Love, God

LOVE GIVES

Dear One,
LOVE actively gives support to others.
LOVE actively gives comforting touches to others.
LOVE actively lends emotional support to others.
LOVE actively seeks wisdom for others.
LOVE actively lifts the spirits of others.
LOVE actively meets the needs of others.
LOVE actively unselfishly gives time to others.
LOVE gives. That is the action of LOVE, to give to meet a need.
LOVE never takes from others, not dignity, not self respect, not necessary earthly possessions, not valuable time. LOVE always gives
I am LOVE and it is my good pleasure to give My life and My kingdom to you. Do the same with others.
Love, God
Matthew 7:11; Luke 11:13; Romans 11:29; I Corinthians 12:1-12

UNEMCUMBERED LOVE

Dear One,
Love is where you find it. You can find love in the strangest places. Often it is closer than you ever thought it would be.
When you give love freely, then you will see that others will reciprocate and love will pour from people to you.
Love seeds are the only seeds that repeatedly come up 100 fold. Love never returns to you in the form of hate. It is impossible. Agape love is unselfish love and it can only return 100 fold to you.
There are other kinds of love which will return negative emotions to you, but those kinds of love are self-centered and self seeking. When ego is involved in giving love, the returns are not always pleasant.
Freely give My kind of love and it will freely be given back to you from others, no stings attached, no encumbrances, no expectations. That's the way I love you.
Love, God
I Corinthians 13:1-7

WORKING IN UNITY

Dear One,
Stand back and let Me work.
What do I mean by that?
I mean that you must stand back from interfering in My work.
Very often My work is impeded by your cluttering the spiritual atmosphere with thoughts and words of strife and jealousy or confusion and unbelief or impatience. Those things stand in My way and the way of my helpers. We cannot work effectively when there are competing spirits doing their own conflicting work.
Another way My children impede My work is by trying to help Me do My work without My guidance and direction. My children do things to help Me without wisdom and knowledge of the right way to proceed, and then they interfere with My work and I have to stand aside and let them proceed with their plans.
So I say to you that you must stand back and let Me do My work without your interference in the form of negative thoughts, negative words, negative actions or earthly conceived ideas of the proper orchestration to bring forth the answer to your prayers.
I am capable of successfully completing the tasks to which you have appointed Me. Work with Me, not against Me.
Love, God
I Corinthians 3:3; Job 37:14
