TRUTH FREES PEOPLE

"Annie Oakley and the Fummy Mummy" (It's Oct. 31st, and that is me)

Dear One,
Sometimes it takes a while for freedom to manifest itself after truth comes to you, yet the principle holds firm that truth will set you free. There is a holy element to truth. Only good things can follow truth because there is a holy and powerful element to truth.
Relationships are strengthened when truth is revealed. Relationships are healed when truth is revealed.
Truth has a way of clearing the air, revealing inner feelings and emotions, and truth also cleanses and purifies all people who partake of it.
Truth often calls for forgiveness, wiping the slate clean. It calls for new beginnings.
Pray for those who hear truth that they will digest it and profit from it.
Love, God
John 8:32; John 14:17 & 18

JUDGMENT BOOMERANGS

Dear One,
If you ever meet a person who has never made a mistake, then you have met a man who has the right to judge others. There is no such person. The closest one to come to perfection is Jesus and he said that he judged no man.
You judge others for things that you have done in some similar manner yourself, maybe only in minute degrees but sometimes in the same ratio that you've judged the other person. That is what is called being hypocritical. Men often forget their own transgressions when they judge others. They forget that the flesh is weak in all men, as well as themselves.
Judging is tough on the one who judges because of the seed and harvest principle. The seeds always grow judgment plants that will come back and judge the one who is judging. It can't happen any other way unless there is a retreat from judgment and forgiveness is expended to the other person. Then forgiveness seeds produce forgiveness instances which will extend forgiveness to everyone concerned.
The principle of judging others for a splinter while you have a boulder in your eye still is in effect.
The secret is to judge no man and you will not sow seeds of judgment which will come back on you with increased judgement either in your physical health, emotional health or spiritual health. Mercy is My answer for judgment. Mercy understands the predicament of every person. Extend mercy to everyone you meet and everyone you know because the merciful shall obtain mercy.
Love, God

PRIVATE TUTOR

Dear One,
There are easy ways to learn and there are painful ways to learn life's lessons.
The most painful way to learn is by experience because with the bad experience pain in some form is present, physically, emotionally or socially.
The most enjoyable and rewarding way to learn is to allow My Holy Spirit, your teacher and counselor, to serve as your private tutor, always present with you to teach you the ins and outs of life in the earth, how to avoid pitfalls and traps that the evil one lays for you. He also teaches you the value of love and mercy and peace and joy. He also enables you with the power to love others, to have mercy for others and how to keep peace with others. Joy comes as a result of His teaching you the depth, height, width and breadth of My love for you.
The sad fact is that most people learn painfully by experience, even ones who have My Spirit within them, because they neglect to take time to receive My personal instructions.
I am your guide, your teacher, your counselor, your protector, your healer, your deliverer, your all in all. I live in you in the person of the Holy Spirit so that I can be your private tutor, always there with My loving instructions and guidance.
Let your lessons be from Me, not from painful experiences.
When bad experiences do happen, I can show the way out that I have already provided.
I can also show you the way around painful experiences. Trust Me and trust My ways.
Love, God
John 14:13-27; I John 2:27

PEACE INFUSION

Dear One,
I have counseled My children that there is perfect peace to be found when your mind is focused on Me. That phenomenon will happen when we are in total unity because then My peace can be infused into you by our oneness, our unity. All of My characteristics, My attributes, become part of you because of our oneness This is why constant meditation and prayer is important, the unity of our minds makes the transportation of My attributes to your mind possible.
Unity is a powerful thing. It was unity which made it possible for My Holy Spirit to enter the earth to be received by men. Without unity with Me and unity with each other the inauguration by My Spirit of My true covenant would not have been possible. When we are unified we are one being, one mind, one Spirit, one life, and then you become My image because you begin to emulate My life.
When a man pursues peace for his mind and his relationships he will find it in communion with Me. Our unity will bring peace to every facet of his life.
When you are seeking peace, choose to keep your mind in unity with Me. There will be a transfusion of peace. Love, God

GIVERS CODE

Dear One,
When you are emotionally coerced into giving to a religious institution and told that you are giving money to Me,when you have done your religious duty then you feel that there is nothing else that I desire in our relationship. Nothing could be further from the truth. I desire the same Father/Child relationship that Jesus and I had when He walked in the earth.
Giving money to institutions was never My idea in relation to giving. My ideas of giving relate to giving love, giving respect, giving forgiveness, giving value, giving mercy, giving food and sustenance to the needy, giving understanding to the perplexed, giving deliverance to the demonic possessed, giving truth and wisdom to the confused, giving funds to people who are in need, giving help to people whatever their needs are, whether they are physical, mental, emotional or spiritual.
My gifts of the Spirit are for you to fulfill your needs and they are for you to pass on to other people to meet their needs.
When you assist Me in meeting a man's spiritual and emotional needs you have fulfilled My ministry in the earth. Jesus spent time in the earth doing it and My Holy Spirit is in the earth in My children to accomplish it at this time.
Men are need of spiritual, emotional and physical help. Assist Me in meeting their needs.
Love, God
I Corinthians 12: 4-13; Matthew 5:1-16

FRUIT CHOICES

Dear One,
Always think of anger and fear as your enemies,. Then you will want to defeat them and their work in your life. As long as you consider them justified emotions and that you deserve to entertain them, then you will not have the disgust you need to get rid of them.
Anger can cause you to erupt outwardly and fear causes you to erupt inwardly. There is always an eruption of emotion with anger or fear, either outwardly or inwardly.
Anger and fear are fruit of the flesh, so you must cleanse them from your flesh by casting them out, resisting them or sometimes by seeking My wisdom so that My truth will set you free.
I desire that you become completely free from anger and fear and all their cohorts so that you will prosper and mature in the fruit of My spirit which are love, peace, joy, mercy, patience, goodness, kindness and faith. My fruit benefits you, feeding you and others with life saving benefits.
Choose My sweet, nutritious fruit over sour, poisonous fruit of the devil. My fruit of love heals and prospers you, but his fruit of anger and fear will destroy you.
Love, God
Galatians 5:19-22; Ephesians 5:9-11

THE FRUIT OF DEATH

"Fruit Doves"

Dear One,
When you allow anger or fear to persist in controlling you, then you are temporarily allowing the devil to be the lord of your life.
Anger and fear are the two most powerful authoritative emotions given to men by the devil. They are his fruit.
Love and joy and faith are My fruit.
You act as though the devil's fruit of anger and fear are harmless and that they are only temporary outbursts, as anger is, or temporary in-bursts, as fear is.
Men consider anger and fear as only momentary temperamental emotions which eventually pass and then you are at peace again. They are not only momentary, though they seem that way. They are authoritative powers which will take over your thoughts and your actions and your mouths until they have destroyed you and all of your family.
Anger and fear are introspective because the thoughts given by them are always of self: you, your needs, your feelings, your comfort, your being right, your self preservation.
Anger and fear never encourage you to consider others and their feeling, their needs, their well being. Anger and fear cause you to be self consumed.
Be the watchmen that I asked you to be, always being alert to recognize thoughts of fear or anger so that you will not be consumed by them.
I bring peace and all good things to you.
Take no thoughts of anger or fear.
Love, God
Matthew 6:25-33; Ephesians 4:31 & 32

STONE THROWER

Dear One,
The accuser, the devil who influences the minds of all men, loves to place blame on other men so as to vindicate himself of all responsibility for problems in the lives of My children.
The accuser of the brethren creates situations where he can place blame on you or on others, breaking your unity with people and creating division. Once he gets you into strife with others he can send many other negative spirits into the situation.
Watch out for thoughts of blame and division. Kick them out and kick the instigator out who brought them. He is the one to blame, not humans. Their acts are instigated by him also so he can defeat both of you and your families.
Recognize your enemy. It's not Me and it's not people. It's principalities and powers of the air who are out to defeat you.
All good things come from Me.
Love, God
James 3:16; Ephesians 6:12 & 13; John 10:10

STONE THROWING

Dear One,
Giving joyfully to others comes from a pure heart.
Giving grudgingly to others comes from a sense of duty and an impure heart.
What makes an impure heart? A sense of selfishness creates it. The thought that giving to another person will cost you time and money comes from a selfish heart. Also refusing to giving a compliment or encouragement to another person accompanies the thought that you are taking attention away from yourself and putting it on another person.
What is the cure for ones who give grudgingly or out of a sense of duty? The only cure is a change of heart, a spiritual heart transplant replacing a heart of stone with a heart of flesh. A heart of stone is a heart with no feeling for others, only for ones self.
A heart of flesh is a soft heart with tenderness toward others.
A tender heart is full of love, compassion, mercy, forgiveness and it lives to give to others.
A stony heart is full of pride, judgment, unforgiveness, selfishness, hatred and bitterness, and it lives to perpetuate itself rather than perpetuating others.
A stony heart throws emotional stones at others, but you must have a tender heart toward those people because they have been victims of hurtful stones thrown at them in the past.
A tender heart passes love notes to others through giving of gifts, compliments, encouragement, cheeriness, mercy, forgiveness and love to others.
Check the condition of your heart. Give tenderly to people with a stony heart and fulfill My mission in the world.
Love, God
John 8:3-11; Luke 6:38; Ezekiel 11:19

PERMANENT RESULTS

Dear One,
Men look for short term and quick results, all in an effort to relieve their mental pressures.
I look for long term results, results which are permanent, stable and totally beneficial in an effort to enhance your life.
When you are praying in the Spirit and led by My Spirit, begin to see everything that happens as one of many occurrences that will happen on the path to the completion of the long term results, the permanent, stable and totally beneficial results.
I promised that if you are praying in the Spirit and walking in the Spirit that ALL things will work for your good.
Remember that My promises are yea and amen, so be it.
Don't settle for short term, bandaged results which your human works can produce. They will only serve to give you temporary relief from pressures and only add to your problems. Hold out for permanent, long term, stable results, the lasting results from prayer and walking in My wisdom and understanding.
Love, God
II Corinthians 1:19 & 20; Romans 8:14-28

AGELESS

Dear One,
When you think of age you think of deterioration.
You should reprogram your thinking. You must know that cells reproduce and renew. You must believe that age should indicate wisdom and increased intelligence rather than forgetfulness and senility.
Your programming can determine what your body will do with age, whether it will regenerate or deteriorate. Yes, your programming will determine what your mind will do with age, increased wisdom and knowledge or decreased mental activity
I meant for age to be growth in all areas, not regression in all areas.
Begin to have the mind that was in Moses. His eyes were undimmed and his mind was good and his vigor was unabated at increased age. Also have the mindset of David who said, "He renews my youth like the eagle."
With My promises as the power in your mind, then My regeneration can begin.
Think renewal because I renew all things.
Love, God
Psalms 51:10; Psalms 103:2-5; Ephesians 4:23

SEED TIME AND HARVEST

Dear One,
You have seen and experienced My spiritual principles work in your life and in your surroundings.
Controlling your thought life,
Sowing good seeds of positive words and actions,
Staying in harmony with all men,
Loving all men regardless of their bad choices and bad behavior,
Finding areas of agreement with everyone,
Refusing to fret and worry,
Discerning spirits working in people and groups and situations,
Always returning good for evil;
Those are all spiritual principles that you have seen work consistently, therefore you have faith that they are tried and true.
Continue in those activities and pray in the Spirit and you will see all things work for your good.

Love, God

PERFECT PARENTING

Dear One,
Renewed inside and out by My words, that is My desire for you.
A good parent always uses kind words to teach and lead and guide his children. I do the same thing. I use my written words and my personal words to you for your growth of character and the development of your personality. My desire is that you have faith, hope, goodness, kindness, mercy, love, diligence and patience. I use My words to help you develop those attributes.
I desire that you be rejuvenated by the power of My words so that you may live a peaceable, prosperous life.
Relinquish all your problems and your troubles to Me and I will teach you about the situation and I will lead and guide you into solutions for those problems and troubles.
I am the Good Shepherd and the Good Father.
Love, God

WAYS AND MEANS COMMITTEE

Dear One,

I always step in when a need is apparent and when I am asked to intervene in a situation.

Things are always happening to My children, whether from the works of satan or from the negligence and carelessness of My children or from wearing out, but I'm always available to fix the situation.

I have many workers who work for Me, My hosts of angels, who along with Me neither slumber nor sleep. We are always performing wonderful feats continually for all of you.

If it's broken we'll fix it. We have the ways and mean with which to fix anything and everything that becomes broken and imperfect.

Love, God

SPIRITUAL CAPSULES

Dear One,
You would be surprised to learn how many of your alerts to pray are from Me. When someone comes to mind, you think it is just your thought but actually it is My urging you to pray for that individual. I gave you the nudge and you began to pray, so we are united in that prayer effort. In that situation I have seen a process being set up in the heavenlies which will be a problem to you or to another person so I give you the urge or the impression to begin to pray, trusting that you will do it, and then evil plans will be thwarted.
Don't ever think that a sudden impulse to pray is without a reason because there may be an emergency in the planning stages by negative spirits.
Also remember that no word is ever wasted when you are praying in the Spirit . Every word is of the upmost importance in the magnificent scheme of things. Spiritual words are capsules of power to heal, to build, to rearrange, to create for My children. Sometimes the spiritual words are tearing down of evil strongholds working against you and other people.
Praying is restoration for the person who is praying, as well. I said to pray for one another so that you will be healed.
Love, God

FAITH BRINGS PEACE

Dear One,
Appreciate the peace that you have at any moment because peace is the product that comes as a result of perfect faith in Me, knowing that I have everything under control. Only when you give Me control can I be in perfect control of a situation.
When you persist in taking back the situation in your mind and trying to solve things yourself in any situation that you have previously given to Me, then you get into confusion and doubt, worry and fretting. Then peace goes out the window because faith has been replaced by human works, your working to perfect the situation instead of allowing Me to do My perfect will in the situation. Your human works are based on half truth or no truths, half insight or no insight. You cannot perfect the situation like I can.
Your rightful works are prayer and love. I spoke of that kind of works when I said that faith without works is dead. Actually, unless you been led by My Spirit to effect a change, leave the strategy and the work to Me. I know the ins and outs of the situation.
Love, God

FOR LOVE'S SAKE

Dear One,
To give love to another person is the greatest gift one can ever give, and love is the greatest sacrifice of self that anyone can perform.
Giving of one's self in acts of love come from self-sacrificing emotions that say that the other person is so valuable to you that you would take what is yours and give it to another person. Even if a gift has been bought, it still requires taking your money and your time in the act of buying the gift. Then you have sacrificed your money and your time for another person. The gift is not important, but the act of sacrificing of yourself is important. It says that he or she warrants your consideration and your kindness.
When you give to others you fulfill the sacrificial act of the old covenant which was brought into the new covenant. Giving is an act of sacrifice. My new covenant with men says that I so loved the world that I gave My son. He was part of Me and My giving Him to the world was a sacrifice. He gave His life as a sacrifice for you, the ultimate act of love.
When you give your time or give of your earthly possessions or give complimentary words or give words of encouragement and appreciation to others, you are fulfilling My new covenant of loving so much that you give to others.
Love always gives, whether it's compliments, money, acceptance, forgiveness, goods, mercy, thanksgiving, giving of your time in prayer, or giving possessions and on and on and on. A person who gives is a person who loves very much.
Love God

ADVANTAGEOUS LOVE

Dear One,
Do you really know the benefits of love?
Do you know the advantages of knowing that I love you?
There are spiritual benefits, but there are emotional and physical benefits to knowing the height, depth, width and breath of My love for you and for others.
Because I AM love, when you bear the fruit of love you release Me and My healing character into your own body and into the lives of others. That is why love overcomes a multitude of problems, because My power is released in love.
Love overcomes fear of everything.
Release My power in you by releasing My love and reap the benefits spiritually, mentally and physically.
Love, God
Ephesians 3:14-19

LOVE BENEFITS

Dear One,
To truly live is to love, to love Me, to love yourself and to love others. That is the essence of life, to love.
When love is cut out of your life, that is death even though your physical body is still living.
Self hatred is a precursor to death because hatred releases chemicals into the body which will kill. Hatred of other people multiples the chemicals and then death is guaranteed, maybe not immediately but it will happen eventually. Bitterness toward me and others will do the same things, release bitter, damaging chemicals into the body which will cause illness and disease.
You cannot hate and have bitterness toward others and also expect healing chemicals to be released into your body.
You cannot love and release poisonous chemicals into your body, because in the presence of love any poisonous chemicals are nonexistent. When you live in a state of love, there is nothing present in your body which will produce damaging chemicals.
Love is healing to you and others because of the presence of My healing chemicals. When you love others and demonstrate that love, powerful chemicals are released in you and they are also released in the people you love because of their feeling of being loved.
Love is not only emotionally advantageous to yourself and others, it is also physically advantageous to you as a lover and also to the recipient of your love.
Love, God

BE PATIENT AND DON'T SWEAT

Dear One,
Taking things easy is a vital a part life that people hate to hear about because it brings up the need for patience. That's what patience is, taking it easy and not sweating the small stuff.
Impatience is always seeded by the emotions. Impatience is always grounded in how you feel or how your emotions are motivating you.
Patience is not a feeling, it is a fruit of the Spirit, a virtue. Patience is the willingness to accept present circumstances, knowing that prayer will eventually change them to the best possible result.
When you take things easy you are allowing your faith to do its work. When you take things easy you are switching from the emotions of the flesh to the emotions of the Spirit, namely patience.
As the saying goes, don't sweat the small stuff and it's all small stuff in relation to eternal values.

Love, God
Luke 8:15; Romans 5:3-5; Romans 8:25

ARCHITECTS AND ENGINEERS

Dear One,
Very few people would purposely run into a brick wall that they themselves had built. They would remember where it was, how solidly it was built and that there would be intense pain accompanying the collision with the brick wall.
However, people constantly are building brick walls with negative thoughts, negative words or trivial words which build brick walls brick by brick. Then when they run into the invisible brick wall built by their own negativity they think it is bad luck.
The truth is that they set into motion the engineering and construction of the brick wall themselves by speaking into the atmosphere negative, cruel, judgmental, sarcastic, critical, angry or strife filled words
When you innocently or unthinkingly speak curse filled words into the atmosphere, remember that you know the words of the Holy Spirit are more powerful. They are dynamite filled words which can explode at the base of the brick wall and bring it down. Begin to speak My positive words.
Stop building invisible brick walls that are engineered and orchestrated by negativity. That is self destructive.
Think and speak what I say about things. Then I can build castles for you when you think positively and speak loved filled, peace filled, mercy filled and joy filled words.
Castles, of which you can live inside, are must nicer for you to build than brick walls are for you to run into.
You are the architect, the engineer and the contractor of your future by the thoughts you think and the words you speak.
What are you building today? It's the same choice it's always been, whether to speak blessings, or whether to speak curses.
Love, God
Matthew 12:37; Luke 6:37; James 3:5-18

LIES THAT STEAL

Dear One,
You have met the accuser face to face, or rather mind to mind. You have heard his lies and you have on occasion believed them. As a result you have lost your peace and your joy and your love, all of them precious fruit of the Spirit.
His accusing lies will either accuse you or accuse others in your mind. In that action he will rob you of the precious fruit that grows when you believe Me rather than believing the father of lies.
The accuser uses your imagination to put his own images in your mind based on assumptions rather than truth. Then he accomplishes his dastardly task of temporarily putting you through mental hell which is generated and fueled by lying images and half truths based on negative assumptions.
You have recognized him. Now refuse his lies. Instead, speak My words of faith to him, robbing him of his accusing powers. A good one to speak to him is, "My God will supply all my needs according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus."
Love, God

GIFTS FOR YOUR ENEMIES

Dear One,
There are ways to get back at someone who insults you or hurts you.
One way is the childish way, to strike back. Another way is to take them to court. The best way is to pray for them.
By praying for your enemies many people are changed, you and the perpetrators.
The first two ways are methods which originate in the flesh, the emotions, which can cause the perpetrator great physical or emotional harm. The seeds you sow in striking back will return to haunt you, as well.
My way of dealing with a person who emotionally hurts you originates in the Spirit and it does not harm anyone. Instead, it helps everyone. That's the difference in the flesh and the Spirit, one hurts and one helps.
Truly, My ways are not your ways. My ways have eternal results. Your ways, the ways of the flesh, have temporary results which hurt all of the people involved.
Go for the eternal results, the ones that signify positive and loving changes in everyone involved.
Again I tell you, choose the high road, the way of the Spirit, and everyone will live in peace.
Love, God
Matthew 5:44; Luke 6:27-31

NEGATIVITY ACIVITY

Dear One,
Your spiritual enemies are always attentive to you, endeavoring to get you into strife through anger, disagreement, discouragement or enmity. They can destroy all you've worked for if they can get you into strife.
Do not fall for their activity. It is so easy to be deceived into thinking that flesh and blood are causing the strife. Rest assured, the ones behind it are your spiritual enemies who want to lead you into trial and tribulations.
My ways are not their ways. Neither are My ways your ways when you are caught in the trap of engaging in strife. Only when you act in love and refuse to participate in the activity of darkness are your ways My ways. Acting in love is the road traveled by those who are led by My Spirit and those who have the fruit of My Spirit.
Peace and love take the upper hand at all times. The lower activities instigated by strife have to yield to the higher authority of love.
Be on watch for the activity of negativity to get you into its snare. Take the road of love and see the results. You will see strife and anger in others will fall to the ground without accomplishing anything when you act and react in love.
Love always prevails. When it is necessary to speak the truth, speak the truth in love and it will be received and heeded.
Love, God

GUILTLESS

Dear One,
Watch out for a spirit of blame. It is in the family of the accuser.
Blame and accuse are descendants of judgment, the judgment that comes from hell, judging you and others good or bad, right or wrong, and then heaping guilt upon you .
My judgment is fair. It always says, "Forgiven and redeemed."
Blame causes you to shut down your mental computer from its function of reasoning with Me where you will find all solutions. Blame immobilizes you, causing you to become defensive, endeavoring you to defend yourself from the guilt. Those mind sets are ineffective, producing nothing that solves any problem. They only bring grief and depression.
Finding the guilty party in any problem is nonessential. Finding the solution is essential. That can only be done by reasoning with Me.
I do not use guilt. Remember that it is My goodness that brings a man to repentance.
Cast blame, guilt and accusation away from you and sentence them to hell. Then come to me for solutions to the immediate problem.
Love, God

THE CROSS REVISITED

Dear One,
Very often, releasing yourself from oppressive spirits and then releasing yourself from the consequences of those sins are the hardest things you can ever do. Forgiveness is the hardest when it is personal because you don't think you deserve forgiveness. You might find it easier to forgive others but find it hard to forgive yourself.
You are so much more inclined to expect less from other people than you expect from yourself.
You are reluctant to forgive yourself because you are persecuting yourself, putting yourself on a cross instead of accepting forgiveness merely because Jesus already endured the cross for all your sin.
When you accept My forgiveness you accept Me into your heart again to a new and more powerful degree because I become more real to you in My act of forgiveness to you.
I know your struggles and I easily forgive you when you miss the mark. My nature is to forgive. I already paid the price for all shortcomings. Please accept My forgiveness so you can go on living and forgiving others.

MEDITATIONS

Dear One,
So many of My children say, "Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be always acceptable to you," when they are talking to Me, yet they don't know that they persist in negative thinking and negative talking. They think it's just reality.
You don't realize how many times a day you meditate upon the negative thoughts put in your mind by the devil. Any negative, defeating, judgmental, oppressive, depressive, vile, degrading thoughts comes from hell to defeat you. Those thoughts become meditations when you entertain them and persist in thinking on them.
Words that hurt or injure others or words that sow negativity into the world are not words that are given by Me. They surround you with curses.
All positive, love-filled, joyful, peaceful words are pleasing to Me because they surround you with blessings. That's what makes them pleasing to Me, the fact that they benefit you.
Jesus said he only spoke the things that He heard Me say because He knew the power behind His words. He only meditated on My thoughts because He knew how to defeat the devil when the devil's thoughts invaded His mind. He knew to speak My words to the devil and he would cease his attack.
My instructions to think on what is pure, holy , uplifting and of a good report was meant to encourage you to refuse the thoughts from hell and only accept My thoughts. My thoughts are given to you for your good, to bring blessings.
The negative words of the devil that are given to you in the form of thoughts are there to bring curses to you.
Words and meditations that are acceptable to Me are words and meditations that bring good things into your life and fill you with joy and peace and love.
Love, God

COMING OUT ON TOP

Dear One,
There is always a positive happening that will follow a negative happening if the negative is handled without anger, strife, disgust, discouragement or depression.
Knowing that life in the earth is filled with occasions of tribulation is a fact. Jesus told his followers that. However, knowing that you will overcome each and every tribulation is a greater and more profound truth. Jesus also told his followers, "In the world you will have tribulation, but rejoice, I have overcome the world." I still can overcome every tribulation that can happen to My children while they live in the world. That is a promise that I made to My children through Jesus Christ, the triumphant one.
Your vital part in each instance is that you handle each crisis with faith and patience and grace and love and mercy. It makes My efforts in overcoming the crisis for you so much easier if you react positively rather than negatively. In the midst of tribulation you must always envision and proclaim a positive end result rather than a negative one.
Everything will work for your good if you walk in the Spirit, the Spirit of truth and love.
To walk in the Spirit is to walk with me and to be guided by Me. I will guide you out of every tribulation and I will cause everything to benefit you. You are My child so I will always do things for your highest good.
Walk with Me and you will walk and live the high life, because My ways are higher than your ways and they are higher than you can ever imagine.
Love, God
