BATTLE STRATEGIES

Dear One, My children who try to handle incidents in life with their emotions raging will always fail and they will sow negative seeds into their garden of life which result in their reaping raging emotional outbursts from others. My children who are led by their human emotions will always fail and will make many mistakes in life which will result in their reaping destructive events in life. When I talked about sowing to the flesh in my Instruction Book, I was referring to human emotions and idealistic thinking. I said that sowing to the flesh would reap destruction because the devil works in the human emotions of My children. That is where he tempts My children to do his evil works of jealousy, envy, division, hatred, anger, impurity, lust, laziness, selfishness, licentiousness, killing, stealing and like things. Remember the insight that I gave your friend when she was trying to solve a family problem with anger. I told her that she was trying to handle the problem in the emotions and she was no match for the devil there. I wanted her to handle the situation with My love. My spiritual emotions, as delivered to your flesh from My Holy Spirit, are effective and powerful emotions. They are love, joy, peace, goodness, kindness, mercy, patience, faith and self control. My emotions accomplish everything good and peaceful. Human emotions usually produce evil works and strife because where there is strife there is every evil work. When I said that you must crucify the flesh, I was talking about crucifying the negative human emotions which work against you. Every negative thought will result in negative emotions which, if allowed to become negative speaking and negative actions, will curse your present and future life. There are no ifs, ands, and buts about that truth. Negative emotions will result in cursing you and your family. Think about the calls which policemen dread the most. They are domestic violence calls where people are all operating in negative human emotions of anger, jealousy, hatred and other emotions. They are usually at the negative speaking phase, yelling and screaming and cussing each other, but they will escalate to injury or killing if not stopped by the officials. If one person in the situation were to do what I instructed, blessing those who curse you, loving your enemies enough not to react in anger, doing good to the ones who do evil to you, that would defuse the situation and peace would prevail. I gave My emotions which originate in love to all of my children and they are called the fruit of My Spirit. When those powerful emotions are allowed to bring peace to a volatile situation, then My kingdom has won and My angels come to minister to the people. When you sow to My Spirit you will inherit My kingdom. When you sow to the flesh and its negative emotions, as tempted by the devil to do, you will inherit destruction. How do you crucify negative human emotions? You refuse to obey them. You do what I, your Father, have instructed you to do. You serve love and goodness to the person who is operating in negative human emotions. But first you must establish yourself in My love. When you are established in My love, then you are fully equipped to return good for evil done to you. You will see the evil behind evil deeds done to you fall by the wayside and die because they have not been fed the food of destruction. I said to submit yourself to Me, then to resist the devil and he will flee. My emotions, called the fruit of My Spirit, are powerful to the pulling down of strongholds in others. You will be amazed when you return good for evil done to you. You will see that My ways are truly more powerful than your ways.

TRUE LIBERTY

Dear One, There is always the tendency to become rigid in religious beliefs and in political beliefs. Those two areas of emphasis in life have been problems with My children from the beginning of the earth. Rigid political beliefs have always been the reasons for nations declaring war upon another nation. Very often those political beliefs have their roots in rigid religious beliefs. Currently, rigid political beliefs also cause division and strife between My children. At the core of the beliefs are rigid religious doctrines. The secret to staying out of conflict and war with others is to always remain flexible in your beliefs, knowing that revelation always comes a little at a time. I said precept by precept, line by line, here a little, there a little is how insight comes. Nothing is ever completely revealed by My Spirit at one time or your mind wouldn't be able to understand the full truth of the relation immediately. The reason for that is that previously held rigid beliefs are difficult to set aside when My children hear more full revelations from their tutor, My Holy Spirit. Those previously rigid beliefs often reject more fully revealed truths as explained by My Spirit because the rigid beliefs have found a home in the minds of My children. Rejecting them might be difficult to do, especially if My children have built a denomination around a certain perceived truth but then find out that the perceived truth is not really a full truth at all. Consider Jesus and the prophesies that preceded His entry into the world to save the world. The nation through which He came to earth rejected Him because of their rigidly perceived interpretations of the prophesies. He was nothing like what they expected because of their nationalistic beliefs. They were looking for The Messiah to come to earth to restore their nation to prominence in the political scene of the world. They wanted a king. When told to wait in Jerusalem for My promise, they were excited, believing that it was time for their nation to be restored to prominence. They did not know that My Holy Spirit's coming to earth to live inside of My children was My greatest promise. They were still rigid in their nationalism, therefore not flexible in their expectations. They were still political minded instead of spiritually minded. When My Holy Spirit descended upon them, they experienced My promise which had been prophesied for generations, that I would come and live in each person and set up My kingdom inside of every person who received Me. Their bodies would become the temples of My Holy Spirit. My kingdom would not be some earthly nation with its religious and political beliefs. The ministry of Jesus was a disappointment to some people who were nationalistic, their having combined politics and religion. The ministry of My Holy Spirit was also a disappointment to the rigidly nationalistic people because He did not come to benefit their nation. My Spirit came on the day of Pentecost to live in all of My children who would receive Him. To those who receive Him into their lives, He becomes their life source, their tutor, their advocate, their counselor, their revealer of truth. My Holy Spirit is the power through which Jesus ministered and He is the power that raised Jesus from the dead. He wants to live in all of My children to restore the Father/child relationship that Adam had at the beginning and the same Father/Son relationship that Jesus had with Me. My children must remain flexible in their beliefs, always ready to receive truth from My Holy Spirit which often is not in tune with their rigid denominational, political and religious beliefs. When you know My voice, you will not be deceived. You will be eager to set aside all rigid beliefs and be so flexible that you will let My Spirit have full reign in your life, leading you into all truth. You have My Instruction Book to check the veracity of the truths that are revealed by My Spirit. To those children who know My voice, I will confirm truth to you by speaking the precepts, ordinances, statutes and laws that are contained in My Instruction Book as confirmation of the truths My Holy Spirit teaches to you. Do you want to learn from My Spirit? Then remain flexible in your beliefs. I will lead you into all truth and then I will confirm those truths to you. The people who are rigid in religious and political beliefs are hard for Me to teach. Their rigid beliefs reject My truths. I'm your Loving Father. I am a home -school tutor for My children in spiritual matters, revealing truth from the inside of each one individually via My Holy Spirit. You are the temple of My Holy Spirit.

SOWING AND HARVESTING

Dear One, Human emotions are so deceiving. They proceed from your thoughts. There is an earthly term called "thought life" which is an accurate description of your thoughts. Thoughts are images which fuel emotions or attitudes and they do have a life of their own because they affect your attitudes either positively or negatively. If your thoughts originate from your spirit where My Holy Spirit lives, they will be identified as the fruit of My Spirit which are love, peace, goodness, kindness, joy, patience, self control, gentleness and faith. If the thoughts originate from your flesh, your human mind where satan is the primary influence, they will be identified as the fruit of the flesh which include anger, hatred, depression, grief, selfishness, impatience, doubt, unbelief, licentiousness, immorality, impurity, drunkenness, jealousy, party spirits, idolatry, division and other destructive thoughts. I said in My Instruction Book that those people who develop the attitudes and actions of the flesh which come from hell, those people will not inherit My kingdom. The people who insist on developing the character of the devil in their lives are still loved by Me because I AM LOVE, but they constantly sow demonic seeds from hell into their own lives so they will inherit curses from the bowels of hell. I will reverse their curses if they will return to Me and begin to sow the seeds of My fruit into their lives. Then the abundant life that I promised will become their heritage. You must use your will to refuse to entertain thoughts from hell which will curse your life. If the thoughts in your mind are of hatred or anger against another person, tell those destructive emotions to go to hell and then choose to do good to the person who wronged you. You have then sown seeds of goodness and those seeds will come up with plants of goodness toward you. Prosperity of body, soul and spirit will overtake you. Jesus was very emphatic about your sowing seeds into My kingdom instead of sowing seeds into the kingdom of hell. He even demonstrated to you how to defeat the devil who is your lifelong enemy. When Jesus was tempted by the devil, He quoted My will concerning the temptations and the devil had to flee because he hates for My children to know My will Then My angels came and ministered to Jesus. When a person refuses to be motivated by the emotions of the flesh, which are the emotions of the devil, that person has switched allegiances from the works of hell to the works of heaven. He or she will begin to sow seeds in My Kingdom again and will inherit the goodness of My land which are an abundance of blessings, more than you dare think or imagine. . Choose My family and live. Jesus died so that you might make the right choices. He even sends My Holy Spirit, My Power, into the lives of My children to give them the supernatural ability to make the right choices and sow benficial seeds which grow blessing crops. Your Loving Father Matthew 4:1-11; Galatians 5:13-25; Galatians 6:8-10; II Corinthians 9:6-11; II Peter 1:3-4.

VICTORY AND LIBERTY

Dear One, I cautioned you and all of My children that you should stand fast in the liberty wherein Christ has made you free and that you should not be entangled again in the yokes of bondage. Jesus paid the ultimate price for your liberty and freedom. I warned you that your spiritual enemy cannot stand for you to be free from bondage to his demons so he will tempt you to become unified with more subtle sources of bondage than you were previously yoked. Your countries have fought wars for your freedom and your sons and daughters have died for your freedom from religious and political bondage. Yet, My children become pawns in the hands of more subtle sources of bondage. My children who tout their freedom from religious bondage have often fallen for demonic spirits of religion which teach judgment, division, exclusivity, destruction, condemnation, guilt, persecution and anger towards others who practice other forms of religion. My children who tout their freedom from political bondage have often fallen for political demonic spirits which teach conflict, strife, judgment, persecution, anger, rage, ranting, division and bitterness toward others who have different political beliefs. They often even demonize the people who are My children but believe differently than they believe politically. What happens is that the same war spirit which supposedly won their freedom from religious and political bondage is still in control and they begin to fight wars against their own brothers and sisters who are not in agreement with their religious and political beliefs. So the wars change from being between countries to being wars within families and between friends. All of that makes the sacrifice of Jesus to no effect and makes the sacrifice of your sons and daughter of no effect because the devil has made sure that My children remain loyal to his demons of conflict, strife, judgment, persecution, anger, rage and bitterness. The father of destruction has seen that the war has shifted from an emphasis upon hated for another country to hatred for families and friends who have different political and religious beliefs than them. . So freedom has been lost again. Only the face of your flesh and blood enemies has changed. It should not be so. It happened to the children of Israel when war became their motivating emotional emphasis. I warned them that they should not intermarry with the people in the promised land or they would be taught to love war. My children who have been freed from bondage to the same demonic spirits have often been subtly seduced into bondage to spirits of religion and politics which teach hatred, judgment, condemnation and persecution of others, all the time thinking that they are doing My will. So what happens to My instructions to love your enemies, pray for your enemies, to do good to those who do evil to you? My will gets abandoned in the name of nationalism and false ideas of religion. My children are blinded to My will in relation to their enemies and quickly become pawns in the hands of the evil one who loves it when My children teach conflict and strife. So the blood of Jesus and the blood of your sons and daughters have been of no effect because internal wars are just as destructive as wars between nations. I told My children that My Spirit is grieved when there is corrupt communication that proceeds from the mouths of My children. I said that My children should only speak words that are good which edify and which minister grace to the hearers. I told My children that your war should not be against flesh and blood but your war is against demonic powers which delight in sucking you into doing their works of destruction. My Holy Spirit said through James that My children engage in wars because of jealousy and strife. Read what My Holy Spirit told James to write in My Instruction Book about wars, whether against countries or against your families and friends because of religious and political differences. Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherein Christ made you free and do not be entangled again with yokes of bondage by joining with the spirits of strife, hatred, division, anger, judgment, evil speaking, bitterness and destruction of the character of others who are your sisters and brothers in My family. My ways are higher than the ways of men. Keep choosing My ways and remain free. Your Loving Father, Galatians 5:1; Ephesians 4:25-33; the entire chapter of James 3; the entire chapter of James 4.

REMAIN STEADY

Dear One, Steady. Steady. Steady. Steady as she goes. When a ship enters turbulent waters, the captain of the ship tells the person at the wheel, "Steady as she goes." In other words, after finding a calm channel, stick to it and stay there, steady as the ship goes on that calm channel. In every endeavor you take, you should find the calm mental channel and stay there emotionally, "Steady as you go." When you are expert at that, then when tumultuous waters occur in your life to toss you about, tempting you to spin out of control, you will find that place of mental peace and you will stay there, "Steady as she goes." Jesus talked about this effectively when He told you not to worry about anything, but you must be like the lilies of the field and the birds of the air who neither spin out of control nor toil ineffectively by trying to find a human way of escape. He said to seek Me and My kingdom because I have already provided a way of escape for you. Then you will be able to stay steady in My channel of wisdom during those tumultuous waters. I said through My Holy Spirit that when problems come upon you which are common to people that I have already provided a way of escape and I will give you the power to stay "steady as you go" through the problem while I am effecting the way of escape from the tumultuous waters. Don't forget that I have the antidote for all of your problems. Stay steady in Me and in My wisdom that I give to you. I might reveal to you that you need to separate yourself from people and pray without ceasing until you receive My wisdom in the situation. I might tell you to become balanced in your thinking rather than being too emotional or too stoic. I might tell you to do something good for your enemy. I might tell you to stop being judgmental and one dimensional in your thinking. My children become judgmental when they become one dimensional in religious doctrine and political doctrine. They begin to judge others rather than forgiving and loving others. The fruit of My Spirit are always good and kind, loving and forgiving. Find those channels of peace in your mind, take the steering wheel to your mind and stay there, being flexible and full of love. You must know by now that the virtue of goodness is flexibility, refusing to be mentally rigid, but blowing in the wind of change with grace. Where there are no religious laws or political laws, there is liberty. Find My Holy Spirit's provision of peace for your soul. Then stay there until the storm is passed. I give you peace in the storm. "Steady as she goes." Your Loving Father Matthew 6:28-34. I Corinthians 10:6-14; Matthew 5:43-48; James 1:2-8; Matthw 7:1-2; Galatians 5:1; Psalm 37:1-11.

SUPERMAN POWER

Dear One, You don't know the full extent of the power that you have as a result of My Holy Spirit living inside of you. You actually have the power to forgive the sins of others. Now, that is power. You have the power to release people from the bondage to the works of the devil when you forgive them. That is because of the principle of binding and loosing. You loose people from the clutches of evil when you forgive them. When Jesus rose from the dead, breathed the Holy Spirit on you, He said you have the power to remit sins and the power retain sins. As My child you should always desire to remit the sins of others rather than retaining them. When you retain the sins of someone, refusing to forgive, then you are refusing to act out My grace in the world. So the other person's sins are retained but so are yours. Another evidence of the power that you have because of My Spirit living in you is the power to love your enemies. That power is never of the flesh. Only My Spirit can love through you the people who do evil. Through the power to love your enemies, you have been afforded the opportunity to minister My love to people in the earth. That is every bit a ministry as ministering salvation to someone. Ministering love to someone is ministering salvation to someone because it is ministering My personality to that person. Another evidence of the power that you have through My Holy Spirit is to pray for and do good to those who do evil to you and spitefully use you. I said those actions by you result in My ministering angels being sent to baptize your enemies with My love and burn out the dross that has caused them to do evil toward you. My ministering angels, the cherubim, have the fire of My Spirit within their beings and they have the power to burn the evil dross from within the people who do evil. What magnificent power you have, which is My power, to authorize the angels in answer to your Holy Spirit-led prayers to minister love and deliverance from evil to others. I said that where My Spirit is in operation that there is always liberty. When you forgive someone who wrongs you, pray fervently for the person, do good the them, then My kingdom comes upon the person, beckoning him or her into becoming a new creature, filled with love and peace, just like you. You are unified with Me, helping Me accomplish My will that all people come to a knowledge of Me. You never thought that forgiveness, loving your enemies, praying for those who do evil to you and doing good to those who spitefully use you are acts of ministering for Me, did you? They are the highest form of ministry because they are not of the flesh but they are of My Spirit, the One who calls all men to repentance and reveals My love. Your perception of ministry in the past has been skewed. Ask My Spirit to reveal My power and authority to you, the same power that raised Jesus from the dead in order to forgive the sins of the world. So when you forgive someone, pray for the person and do good to the person, then you have done the ministry of Jesus. Remember that it's My goodness that brings a person to repentance. So when you do good to a person who is doing evil acts toward you, you are doing My ministry of love and that person is called into My family of love. I want you to know the power of forgiveness and doing good to others. Allow My Holy Spirit, your private tutor, to reveal to you the power that you have. Your Loving Father.

POWERFUL WORDS

Dear One, Think about the power that negative words can have upon you . They can crush you completely. They can destroy your ego. They can trample on your confidence, leaving you a victim in its wake. They can devalue your worth. They can ridicule you, bathing you in shame. Those are things that negative words do to affect your present and your future because they rob you of self confidence and worth. They belittle you, making you shrink in shame from life. Those words are from hell.

Think about the good things that happen in you when people speak positive words to you. They establish your worth. They elevate your value. They instill in you a good ego. They reinforce self love, equipping you to love others as you love yourself. They bless you with their issues of love. If there is enough energy in negative and positive words to either curse you or bless you, think about the energy that they produce in the spiritual dimension to gather together either My angels or the devil's demons, calling together the battalions into battle to deposit into your life either their good works or their evil works. Jesus was emphatic about it. He said by your words you are justified and by your words you are condemned, meaning that you summon into your life and your family life whichever spiritual beings that the words beckon. Written words are even more powerful. If they are positive, you and other people can read them again and again, becoming more and more established in the blessings of the words, thus becoming engulfed in a multitude of blessings. Negative, written words can be read over and over, cursing the reader over and over again with their toxic energy which robs people of blessings over and over again. Words become flesh. They determine your present and future, whether it is blessed or cursed. Sometimes My children persist in speaking negative words about their family, their neighbors, their political leaders, their educators and their service personnel. As a reult, their judgment comes back upon themselves because they judged others so they will be judged in return because of the seed sowing principle that is in operation in the earth. I do not judge them. Their own negative words, which were spoken as a result of being tempted by the destroyer, results in judging them. When you determine that every word you speak will bring grace to the hearers and edify them, then you will be fulfilling the commandment of Jesus to love others as I love you. Words create good results or evil results. I said in the beginning that I called before you life and death, blessings and cursing. I said that the choice is yours, but I asked you to choose life. Your Loving Father Matthew 12:35-35-37, Matthew 5:37; Ephesians 4:29-32; James 3.
