KINGDOM LIVING - PRAYERS AND THANKSGIVING

Dear One
    We have been talking about the possibility of living in the earth with success in every area of your life.  (II Peter 1:2-4) We have talked about My advice and instructions to you about how to avoid evil in the world which is always present to rob, kill and destroy you. (John 10:10)  We have talked at length about loving your enemies, doing good to them and blessing them so that My angels will be sent with their coals of fire to burn out the divisiveness, the strife and other offending spirits from their minds. turning their thoughts and attitudes toward you to do good to you in return. (Luke 6:27-36)  We have talked about letting me avenge you instead of your seeking vengeance against someone.  (Romans 12:19-21) We have talked about the ministry of Jesus Christ, that He died for the sins of the whole world,  even for your enemies, so you have the power to forgive all the sins of other people.  (John 20:23; Luke 11:4) )  In forgiving everyone, you have the freedom then to live the abundant life with success in every area. 
    In other words, when you are in the earth as I am in heaven, acting and reacting from only My Holy Spirit, then you are My image in the earth and you have the abilities to live the abundant life, a life abundant in love, joy, peace, goodness, kindness, mercy, patience, faith and forbearance.  When you are rich in those heavenly characteristics, you are more wealthy and successful than kings and heads of nations because your soul and spirit are prosperous.  As a result, you will prosper and be in health because your soul prospers with My words and instructions continually being in your thoughts.  You are walking in My Spirit and being led by My Spirit.
    I also coached you that when needs arise there is an easy way for Me to meet those needs.  I said for you not to be anxious for anything but in every situation with prayer and thanksgiving let your requests be known to Me.   (Philippians 4:6-8)  Notice, I said to first to get rid of anxiety because the worry that comes from anxiety can form static so that your prayers are earthbound instead of heaven bound.  Get rid of anxiety first, and then pray and thank Me for the answer.  In praying, you open the pathway for Me to meet your needs.  In thanking Me, you are declaring your confidence in Me which also clears the pathway for the answers to your prayers to become reality in your life.
     Always remember that I never withhold anything from My children.  I am not the robber and I don't steal from you.  The devil is the robber and he is the one who wants to intercept the answers to your prayers, cheating you out of them by enticing you to have his thoughts, attitudes and actions toward My other children.   However, when you have the power of My Holy Spirit inside of you, you have the power to refuse the devil's temptations and you have the wisdom and abilities to become My image in the earth.  When you become My image, all of My goodness is attracted to you.
    I have given everything that is necessary for you to have a life filled with calmness, gentleness, comfort, peace and graciousness toward others.  When you have My Spirit, you have My mind, the same mind that was in Jesus Christ.   You have all of My mercy, My kindness, My love, My forgiveness, My favor, My wisdom, My knowledge and My love.   Welcome My calmness into your life and enjoy My peace.
    Keep peace with everyone and you will be known in the earth and the heavens as My child. (Matthew 5:9)
    Your Comforting Father

KINGDOM LIVING - SPIRITUALLY MOTIVATED

Dear One,
    Jesus, your real Brother, tried to introduce you to the knowledge that you can have My kingdom living while you still live in the earth.  He said that when He cast a demon out of a person by the power of My Spirit that My kingdom comes upon the person.  That has never changed.  (Luke 11:20)  Those instances were when I answered His prayer that He taught the followers to pray, that My kingdom would come on earth and that My will would be done on earth as it is in heaven. (Matthew 6:10)  That had been My desire for My children from the foundation of the earth and it would be fulfilled when My Holy Spirit came to earth to live in My children with the power of My will overriding the will of evil in their lives. 
     John the Baptist also tried to give you and My other children an introduction into kingdom living that is available to you while you live in the earth.  He said that he baptized people in water, but that One was coming whose shoes he wasn't capable of filling and that Person would baptize you with My Holy Spirit and with Fire. (Matthew 3:11)  My Spirit is always accompanied by myriads of angels and they contain My spiritual fire of which Jesus spoke which burns out the demons from the flesh of people, leaving them clean and unhindered in their ability to follow My will in every matter, if they so choose.  (Ezekiel 10:1-5)
    What Ezekiel saw in the heavenly dimension became real on the day of Pentecost when My Holy Spirit came to earth to live within My children upon their invitation. (Acts 1:4-8; Acts 2:1-4)  Ezekiel had seen into the spiritual dimension and had seen My angels with their coals of fire within their beings that are effective to burn out demonic spirits from My children.  It is an instantaneous thing with no pain and no effort on the part of humans.  My Spirit enters into the lives of My children and does an instantaneous holy work, creating a new spiritual person and burning out the evil that was formerly present which gave the people such horrible human problems.  (John 3:3-7) In choosing to live inside of My children in the person of the Holy Spirit, I fulfilled My promise that My kingdom would come on earth as it is in heaven.  The bonus that My children have is that they have the power to do My will while in the earth as well as the bonus of having spiritual power that had never heretofore been available to people.  On the day of the feast of Pentecost the actual miracle took place for the first time to the followers of Jesus. 
     The miracle continues daily today, second by second and minute by minute in the earth, as My children choose to allow Me to come into their lives and bring the same power into their being that raised Jesus from the dead.  He is My Holy Spirit.  There is no other Spirit of goodness and power that is available to people through which I can infuse My essence of spiritual life into their beings and through My Holy Spirit living inside of them bring kingdom living to them while they live in the earth and also in the world to come.  (Romans 8:11)
     My children become spiritually equipped to live victoriously in the earth with the spiritual abilities of My Holy Spirit to overcome all the works of the devil, just like Jesus did.  (I John 3:8-11)  You have the spiritual power to submit yourself to Me and to resist the devil. (James 4:7) You have the power to allow Me to build My earthly home inside of you with the guidance of My Spirit who is My great designer.  (I Corinthians 3:16) You have the humility and spiritual ability to have kingdom living while in the earth only through the design, the abilities and the power of My Spirit. (Matthew 5:3)  Every word that He speaks to you comes from Me.  (John 14:26)
     My heart is thrilled when you appropriate all of the blessings that I have for you which bring My kingdom living into your life.  I said that I tell you things to do so that your joy will be full. (Psalm 16:11; John 17:13; Acts 2:28; Acts 13:52; Romans 15:13)  I desire that you are filled with My joy.

KINGDOM LIVING - OWING KINDNESS

Dear One,
    My Holy Spirit tells you the place of kindness in My family.  Kindness is a direct outgrowth or fruit of My love being present in your life.  My Spirit wrote that if you do not show forgiveness and kindness to your enemies and the people who break religious laws, that you are showing contempt for the riches of My kindness toward you when you have also done such actions as your enemies do.  He said that My kindness, forbearance and patience are intended to lead a person to repentance.  (Romans 2:3-4)  Since repentance means to turn from following evil ways and turn to the course of doing My will in all matters, a person has to experience My kindness to want to turn to be in unity with Me and receive My love, forgiveness and kindness.  My patience, forbearance and kindness are constant, but often a person must see those attributes in you, My child, before he or she can relate them to Me.  That is why My Spirit said in those writings that you have no reason to judge anyone, because you have done such things and have experienced My forgiveness and kindness toward you.
     Kind acts are definite outgrowths of forgiveness.  When you have been called upon to forgive someone for an unkind word, an evil action toward you, an act of persecution or anything else derived from some other injurious attitude, after you forgive the person you should demonstrate your confidence in My words by doing a kind act toward the person you have forgiven.  He said even in extreme cases of beatings and imprisonment, that you must use the weapons of righteousness to counteract the evil that other people have done to you. (II Corinthians 6:4-7)  He said that you must react with the weapons of righteousness of purity, patience and in the kindness in My Holy Spirit, just as I do.  In doing that, the person is introduced to My kindness, patience and forbearance through you.
    My Spirit goes on to tell you that the fruit of My Holy Spirit grows inside of you and appears on the outside when you are in unity with Me.   He said that one of those outgrowths is kindness. (Galatians 5:22-23)  Kindness is a powerful weapon of righteousness which wins every war, every battle, every skirmish, every argument and every disagreement.  Kindness results in gift giving, sharing your wealth, speaking only words that edify and build up a person, giving validation to someone who needs to be elevated.  In other words, kindness is sacrificing your prejudice, your vengeance and your ill feelings; doing works of kindness toward someone.
     The truth of My kindness toward you and the whole world is amplified when My Spirit wrote that because of My great love for you that I made you alive even when you were in your trespasses and that it is by My unmerited favor that you have been saved.  (Ephesians 2: 4-5)   He said that I have raised you up and seated you with Christ and Me in the heavenly realm in order to show the riches of My grace which is expressed in My kindness to you. (Ephesians 2:6-7)  He revealed that no person could ever do that by any human works because it was simply by My grace that you have been saved from the works of the devil by My plan.  (Ephesians 2:8-9)
     Therefore, My Spirit said that you must clothe yourself with kindness, compassion, humility and patience, bearing the burdens and shortcomings of others, forgiving everyone as you are forgiven, then sealing the forgiveness by your doing kind acts toward the people whom you have forgiven. (Colossians 3:13-14)  He told you that the most important thing is to PUT ON love which binds you in unity with others.  Then He told you to LET My peace rule in your body. (Colossians 3:15)  He said that you were called to peace.  In addition He said to be thankful at all times.
     Your Kind Father

KINGDOM LIVING - FAITH

Dear One,
    My Holy Spirit wrote to you and told you what faith is.  Number one, He said that faith is substance -- meaning spiritual reality -- of things for which you hope. (Hebrews 11:1) That reality comes into your thoughts by My Spirit, being delivered into your mind from My mind in visions, dreams, revelations or words of wisdom and knowledge.  When you have an image in your mind from My spiritual dimension, then you can have immovable faith for it.  You only hoped for it previously, but when you have an image in your mind of My fulfilling of an event, then you have the faith that brings it into your life.
    Number two, My Spirit said that faith is evidence -- things evidenced with spiritual eyes -- or images put in your thoughts from Me that convince you of the reality of My spiritual dimension around you which is the source of all spiritual power, or faith as it is called.  So faith is seeing with your spiritual eyes or hearing with your spiritual ears the reality of things for which you have prayed or are praying.  It is seeing spiritually the reality of things that your physical eyes and ears have not seen or heard.  Faith has nothing to do with the mental images that are conjured up by your human mind.  Faith is allowing My Holy Spirit to infuse into your mind what I want to do to reward you for being My child. meeting your every need.
     In this teaching about faith, My Holy Spirit said that your having faith for something or your having faith in My spiritual dimension around you as placed in your mind by Me, they please Me greatly because I know that I will be able to reward you by granting your requests.  (Hebrews 11:6)   I delight in giving good gifts to My children but I am limited to faith being present in the lives of My children before I can act in their behalf because of the barriers set by the devil in the minds of My children which limit My working in their behalf. 
     Under My old covenant with My children few people received the promises that I made to them of entering a new country, even though they had embraced the promises, having spiritually seen them from far off into the future. They were persuaded of them and were so confident that they even confessed their faith in My promises.  (Hebrews 11:13)  However, even though they had faith for the new country, few people entered into the promised land because of unbelief on the way to the land of milk and honey, griping and groaning and trying My patience with unbelief.  (Hebrews 3:7-14) I continued being patient with them, but their joining mentally with the devil kept them from obtaining my promises.  Their way was blocked by the devil from their entering into the land of milk and honey because of their uniting with the devil's thoughts of rebellion instead of My thoughts of faith.  I was grieved then and I am grieved now when My children do not enter into My promises for them.
     I told you that the more you know about the spiritual dimension around you, the more faith you will have because you will have an image in your mind of the enormous number of spiritual beings who are working along with Me to deliver My blessings into your life.  I told you that you are surrounded by My heavenly dimension, My heaven, and in My heaven is an innumerable number of angels, and the full assembly of firstborn whom Jesus took into My heaven when He ascended into heaven, and the spirits of just people made perfect, and Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and His blood, and Myself.  You need no other help with all of those powerful spiritual entities surrounding you to make your life blessed in all ways, if you will persist in My words and with the power of My Holy Spirit and do not descend into unbelief as tempted by the devil. (Hebrews 12:1 and 22-29)
     I am your Good Father and I have already given to you your entire inheritance. My Holy Spirit is your gifting agent, your delivery agent who brings to you all of your spiritual wealth and success.  Learn to recognize His voice and then follow His leading.  He has enormous surprises for you that will thrill you, body, soul and spirit!

KINGDOM LIVING HUMILITY REWARDS


Dear One
    Contrary to what you might think, you do not have all truth, your denomination does not have all truth, your pastor or priest or preacher or leader does not have all truth, your political party does not have all the necessary principles to cause your life to be fulfilled and your politicians are not led by My Spirit no matter how many times they use My name.  Using My name to further social or political beliefs is using My name in vain.   No spiritual or political pride will be your savior, your mentor or your guide to success in life.  (Philippians 2:3-8) Those are all man made institutions and will never be able to save you from the evil that is in the world, some to which My children willing bind themselves.  The only way to have success in life is through being led by My Holy Spirit, to be baptized in My Holy Spirit and to pray in the languages of My Holy Spirit.  
     Any social, religious or political institution or person who claims to have the full truth is deceived and has crossed over into pride which always leads to a fall downward, separating you from any success in life and separating you from Me.   Pride was what entered into the nation of Israel, causing them to claim to have all of My favor, My truth and My attention. (Proverbs 18:12) I have never favored any person or any institution or any nation over another.  I desire that everyone come to the knowledge of Me, becoming intimately acquainted with Me so that they can be changed into My image by truly knowing Me personally instead of knowing Me through the deceived eyes and ears of other people.
     Humility is the opposite of pride.  Humility is always seeking My truth because you know that you are in need of My help, My insight and My wisdom. Humility is listening to wise people who have also purposed to know Me intimately and then your separating truth from fiction.  (Matthew 23:11-35)  Humility is putting others ahead of yourself, taking the least favorite seat in a crowd, keeping your mouth shut when others are talking and never insisting on your being right. (Proverbs 18:13)  That is the job of My Spirit, to prove or disprove any religious tenet or political tenet to anyone who asks.  I pour out wisdom on My children who seek Me, which produces righteousness.  (Proverbs 11:2)  I am not the father of knowledge which puffs up a person and causes him or her to try to lord the knowledge over other people.   Humility respects the rights of others to believe what they choose to believe and humility grants respect to people with differing beliefs.  Humility knows that gaining wisdom from Me is here a little, there a little, not all at once or in huge doses because tidbits of wisdom have to grow fruit in a person before moving on to more insight. (Matthew 7:15-20)
     Humility is doing to the least respected people, the poor and the diseased, what you would do to Me because I live in them.  I sent Jesus into the world for them and He ministered solely to them, not to the privileged people, the religious people or the political people.  (Matthew 25:34-40)  Jesus came to earth for the poor in spirit who have a need for freedom from the devil's work.  I promised My kingdom to them. (Matthew 6:3)
     I seek the ones who have been injured and abused by the religious and political proud people.  (Proverbs3:34-35)  I rescue the injured and exalt them with My kingdom blessings.  The devil elevates a man with pride in his own heart and then the devil destroys the man with a fall from honor.  The payment of the devil is always destruction. 
    Haughtiness and pride are a sure road to destruction.  Humility and kindness for others are a sure way to kingdom life for My children.  (Romans 12:3; Philippians 2:4)  I said that a person who delights in My words, seeking to glean wisdom from them, seeking night and day to understand more fully My glorious plans for My children, they will be blessed.  (Psalm 1:1-6) 
    Humility has nothing to do with outward signs of piety like putting on sackcloth and ashes.  Humility has to do with spending time with Me and enjoying My one-on-one attention to you.  Every time you seek Me, you will find Me.  Treasure our times together.

KINGDOM LIVING - NO BITTERNESS

Dear One,
     When bitterness flows from your mouth, it is an indication that there is a bitter spirit that is in your soul which wants to destroy you and your family.  It's a sign to you that you need to cast out that bitter spirit and replace it with a spirit of forgiveness and compassion.  The bitterness that is resident in the soul of a person becomes evident through the words of that person.  It cannot stay hidden in secret because it is proud of its dastardly works and wants to be noticed in an effort to curse other people with its anger and resentment, passing on its curses. 
      My Holy Spirit identified those demonic spirits when He wrote through Paul that My children must get rid of all bitterness, wrath, anger, clamor, rage, slander and all forms of malice.  (Ephesians 4:31) Those are all evil demons whose desire is to kill you by sending bitter hormones throughout your body and mind when you are consumed with bitterness.  My children think that the bitter thoughts are from themselves but they are not.  They are from hell. 
     My Spirit made clear to you My instructions on how to handle those evil thoughts which were sent to lead you into destruction and death.  He said also that you must cast down those thoughts of bitterness and wrath which exalt themselves in your mind above what Christ has taught you to do, which is to love your enemies and do good to them, which is the opposite of bitterness.  Cast those evil thoughts of bitterness into hell.  He said to bring every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ who lives within you in the person of My Holy Spirit. (II Corinthians 10:3-5)  He even said that the weapons of your warfare are not human power, but they are mighty because they are of Me, pulling down the strongholds of the devil who works in your mind.  You have the power of My Spirit to cast those demonic thoughts into hell, freeing yourself from their toxic poison.  When you do, you are free.  Whom Christ has set free is free indeed.
     The next weapon is equally as powerful.  My Spirit said after you have cast into hell those bitter, angry, vengeful thoughts by dealing with the demonic spirits first, that you must then be kind to the people with whom you were previously bitter, angry and vengeful.  He said to forgive the people as Christ has forgiven you.  All of you are covered with the blood of Jesus which bought your own forgiveness and equipped you to forgive those who do evil to you.  Do good to the people who were abusive, unkind or hurtful by persecuting you or speaking evil against you.  Instead of returning evil to them, you must forgive them, bless them and do good acts toward them because those actions are just as powerful as casting out the demon of bitterness from you.  It is restoring unity with your former enemy through which I can bless all of you.  My Holy Spirit said to be tenderhearted, forgiving and compassionate to your former enemies; and in doing so, you fulfill the words of Jesus that He taught to His followers.  (Ephesians 4:32)
    Anger and bitterness will poison others with the bitter words from your mouth and they will poison you with negative hormones which surge through your body.  I gave you, through Jesus and also My Holy Spirit, the antidote for all of that poison.  It is to cast out the negative thoughts from your mind into hell and to do good to the people with whom you had formerly been angry. 
    You have the power to do what I ask you to do in order to have kingdom living while in the earth.  Now you must have the motivation to do it as an act of your will.  You will not emotionally feel like doing what I admonish you to do.  You must do it as an act of your will.  The emotions will come later when you are free from the bitter spirit which you sent to hell, and when you see what your tenderhearted actions did to your former enemies, tenderizing their hearts toward you. 
     You will celebrate your freedom from the clutches of the devil and I will celebrate with you.
     Your Father of Complete Freedom

KINGDOM LIVING - NO MOCKING

Dear One,
     To be ridiculed and mocked as being foolish is the epitome of an insult.  Many people mock Me as led by the devil's temptations in their thoughts. That is what the devil did to Eve and to Adam when he tempted them when He mocked Me by saying, "God didn't really mean that you would die.  He meant that you would be as gods if you listen to me." That was a mocking of Me, insinuating that what I say is not really what I mean, that I am only talking to My children in an effort to just be talking, not speaking truths that will benefit My children.  In other words, the devil minimizes the importance of the truths in My words when he tempts you in your thoughts to obey him instead of obey My cautions to you that I give in order to instruct you how to avoid bringing the devil's evil works into your life. 
    My Holy Spirit is the One who teaches you to judge between My instructions in your thoughts and the devil's mocking instructions in your thoughts, casting out the evil temptations and keeping My beneficial instructions. For instance, My Spirit wrote through Paul to the Galatians some emphatic insights about the matter of seed sowing. (Galatians 6:7-10) He told the people, and you, that you must not be deceived, as Adam was, in accepting the mocking insults about Me in your mind relating to seed sowing.  The devil had deceived the people at the time by convincing them that their attitudes and actions toward other people were not important, that the only thing of importance was their observing Jewish laws.  My Spirit wrote that you must not be deceived by the same old trick of the devil in which he mocks Me in your thoughts by saying that the teachings of Jesus and the Holy Spirit are noneffective. The devil did that by his ridiculing My truthful teaching that the seeds that you sow in the earth will grow the same plants in your life. 
      At the time the devil had convinced the Galatians that their actions must include yielding to Jewish laws in order to be justified in My sight.  Their justification was already through the presence of My Spirit in their lives and there was no need to go back into slavery to religious laws of sin and death because if they did they would be cursed by the devil's destruction.  My Spirit warned them that Christ would be no benefit to them if they went back into slavery to religious laws because He came to set them free from the curses brought by the laws. (Galatians 5:1-6)
      My Spirit reiterated through Paul, just as He had through Jesus, that if you sow seeds to the flesh by yielding to the devil working in your flesh, that you will reap corruption.  He also reiterated the good news, that if you sow to the Spirit, as prompted by the Holy Spirit, that you will reap kingdom living in your life on earth and the life to come.  (Galatians 6:8-9)  He said that you must be careful not to get weary in sowing good seeds into My kingdom of heaven, for you will reap in due season if you do not faint from well doing and fall into sowing evil seeds.  He said at every opportunity that you should do good to all men, especially those who are of the household of the faithful.  (Galatians 6:10)
       My emphasis in that dissertation is that you must not be deceived, for you will reap from the kingdom in which you have sown.  If you sow to the kingdom of destruction, you will reap destruction.  If you sow to My kingdom of life, you will reap kingdom living which includes love, joy, peace, goodness, kindness, mercy, patience and endurance in every area of your life.
       The tree of life is in you, My Holy Spirit, and He can only grow good fruit.
