My Dear Precious Child,
Jesus Christ confessed His complete trust and faith in Me in His proclaimer to His disciples that all things had been entrusted and delivered to Him by Me, speaking about My powers of My Holy Spirit through whom Jesus was healing the diseased, casting out demons and teaching about My kingdom which was soon to come into people who would seek for My kingdom and seek for My righteousness. He also confessed that no one really knew and understood Himself, Jesus, except Me, His Father, and no one understood and knew Me, His Father, except Himself, My Son, and anyone to whom the Son makes Me and My character known to him or her. That confession is the firm basis upon which His disciples, His followers and you can be assured of the One-On-One relationship that Jesus had with Me. (Matthew 1:27)
After that proclamation by Jesus of His close relationship with Me and My close relationship with Him, Jesus offered to humanity the same close relationship with Him and Me that He and I have with each other. He said that anyone who is over burdened, heavy laden and laboriously depressed with earthly cares should come to Him as My Son and learn about His having the same personality as Me, His Father. He identified His personality and My personality as being meek, gentle and humble in heart, not egregious and judgmental like the political Pharisees and religious leaders. Then He promised that everyone who came to Him to receive His life in them would have the opportunity to have complete rest, relief, refreshment and recreation for their souls. His explanation was amplified when He promised that the people to whom He was talking, and you, would have the blessing of quietness and peace for your soul when My Spirit of Peace enters into your mind. (Matthew 11:28-29; Jeremiah 6:16)
In addition to that wonderful promise of your having complete peace in your mind, Jesus further explained that your being bound and yoked to Him is good and useful for you, not hard, harsh, judgmental and depressing like the laws of the Pharisees had become. He said that being bound to Him and Me in complete unity would be comfortable, gracious, loving and pleasant, light and easy to take on. (Matthew 11:30)
That gracious information was necessary for the followers of Jesus Christ to hear and understand the difference between what the political and religious leaders were offering them and what Jesus and I had to offer to them. The promise of having a peaceful mind was opposed of their current mental activity of being in constant turmoil because of not being able to keep all of the laws and because of being in a world ruled by demonic spirits.
My promise through the words of Jesus Christ, that being that people could actually have a peaceful existence in the world, was certainly music for their ears. They had observed the peace and confidence that Jesus had in His life, so they could see the results of their possibly being in total unity with Me, like Jesus was and is, instead of their being in unity with the hypocritical religious and political leaders which brought burdens and misfortunes into their lives.
The disciples of Jesus had very little problem trusting Him because of His love and the gracious power of My Holy Spirit which was visible in His life. It was easy for them to leave their families and follow Him for three years because of the virtues that were apparent in Him. They received rewards from My heaven because of their loyalty to Him and through Him their loyalty to Me. They found that as long as they stayed in unity with Me through the Holy Spirit that was in Jesus Christ and if they did not fall for the false prophets who were determined to lead them back into bondage to the law of sin and death, they retained the peaceful mind that was infused into them when they were born of My Spirit and baptized in My Holy Spirit. Later several of them refused the appeal of the devil to return to the old covenant laws. I spoke My approval of them through the new covenant prophets in their writings. Yet, some fell away and then returned when the new covenant prophet Paul pointed out to them that they had been deceived and bewitched by false prophets. (Galatians 3:1-7) The loss of peace in their minds was an indication that they had fallen away from Me.
When you have lost the promised peace of My Holy Spirit as sent to you by the Prince of Peace, that is an indication that you have embraced some false teachings and are struggling with burdens again. Don't remain in the mud and grunge too long or it will be harder for you to be restored to My peace. Peace is restored to you when you become in unity with Me again.
Your Father of a Peaceful Mind
