My Dear Precious Child,
     Jesus Christ in instructing the keys to the thoughts, attitudes, speech and actions of people that activate My kingdom of heaven in their lives on earth where blessings and rewards come from Me are evident, He gave wise insights into the religious activity of fasting.  It was religious tradition to limit food in fasting and put on sackcloth instead of usual clothing as an outward sign of devotion to Me and in repentance of sins.  The motivation behind that tradition was the belief that I, on My part,  would reward the people for their being sorry for breaking their covenant with Me.  That tradition, as with most religious traditions, had no effect on Me and instead it became a way to signal to other people the hypocrisy of their devotion to Me.  
     Just like what Jesus said about praying, that you should not pray in public to be seen by other people, but instead for you to go into your private prayer room and pray so that prayer is between you and Me only.  The good result in that exercise of communication between us is that you are rewarded openly by Me.  The results in fasting, like Jesus coached you to do, is that instead of looking deprived and gloomy like the hypocrites, that you should put on a happy face, adorn yourself with sweet smelling fragrances and do your fasting in secret.  When you do, I am able to reward you openly.  The secret of your fasting is between you and Me, child and Father.  (Matthew 6:16-18)
    To the Jews at the time of Jesus' ministry in the world, there was a more detailed reference to the kind of fasts that I choose, but still they must be done in secret.  It was spoken about earlier by the prophet Isaiah.  He spoke extensively that the proper fasts are to fast the actions behind your sins, iniquities and your trespasses.  (Isaiah 58) Isaiah even revealed the reason behind the lack of blessings in the lives of people especially when they fasted to get My attention, which was nonproductive.  He wrote that they call upon Me, asking why I didn't reward them for fasting food and for their going around looking sad in sackcloth with ashes placed on their faces.  He said that instead of stopping work on the Sabbath, as the religious Law required, that they extorted a full day's work from their servants.  My instructions for the Sabbath Day through Moses was that they take a day of rest for themselves and their servants so that their bodies would recuperate from their labors.  On that day of rest from physical labor, they had time to study My constitution and bylaws of our covenant relationship, but instead the hypocrites made their servants continue in labor even through they, themselves, took a day of rest.  (Isaiah 58: 3)  I said through Isaiah that it should not be so, that instead they should fast having their servants work on the day of rest also.
     Isaiah also said that even when the Jews themselves fasted on the Sabbath, they sowed strife, engaged in divisive debate and that they would smite people with the fist of wickedness.  He said that because their treatment of their servants and neighbors were cruel that it was impossible for Me to hear their voices.  He said their cruel actions towards their servants on their fasting days are the things that needed to be fasted, not food. (verse 4-5) Isaiah, speaking for Me, listed some of the acceptable fasts that I choose, not ones chosen by men.  He said that people must become humble in fasting.  He said to refrain from these things as a fast: 1. wickedness 2. enslaving people, 3. that they fast their being yoked to attitudes, speech and actions of evil; 4. that they should fast selfishness by feeding the hungry, 5. housing the homeless, 6. covering the naked, and 7. refusing to hide themselves from the needs of their families. (verses 6-7)   
    In enumerating those things that I said are My acceptable fasts for them,  I said through Isaiah that if they would fast those things that their light would break forth in the morning, that any healing they needed would come easily, that their righteousness would go before them bringing peace and prosperity to them and that My glory would be their rear guard. (verse 8)
     Isaiah went further in My identifying what I wanted the people to fast.  He further said for them to 8. to fast oppressing people, 9. to fast pointing their fingers at people in scorn, and 10. to fast every form of false, harsh, unjust and wicked speaking.  He said that when they would pour out their sustenance to the hungry and satisfy the needs of the afflicted, then their light would rise in the darkness and that even their gloom would be like the noonday sun.   I said through Isaiah that if they fasted all forms of evil toward people that I could do these things: 1. guide them continually, 2. I would provide for them even in droughts, 3. that I would make their bones strong, and 3. that they would be like a well watered garden, like springs whose waters never stop.   Another great reward of which I spoke through Isaiah is that: 4. their generational genes would be rebuilt with My genes, that their wasted foundations would be raised, and 5. that they would be called the repairer of the breach, the restorer of the pathways of their life on which My rewards can flow to them.
     I continued with instructions reiterated to the Jews through Isaiah that they:  11. must also fast traveling on the Sabbath but instead take a day of rest and communion with Me, 12. that they fast doing their own pleasures on the day of rest, and13. that they cease all speaking in idle, negative words.  I promised that if they delighted themselves in Me that I would make them ride on the high places of the earth and that I would feed them with the inheritance of Jacob that I promised to him, making them the inheritors of My blessings.  Isaiah attributed all of those words to Me, saying that My mouth had spoken the words in Isaiah 58 relating to proper fasting.  (Matthew 25:31-46)
     Pay close attention to the words of Jesus Christ and Isaiah regarding fasting.  They are keys to your inheriting My blessings and rewards.  Fasting evil is fulfilled by your resisting the devil until he flees from you and goes to tempt someone who will yield to him; or, better yet, you cast the demons out of you into the fiery furnace by the power of My Holy Spirit. (James 4:7; Matthew 13:36-43)

My Dear Precious Child,
    My first Son Jesus Christ gave a sample prayer to His disciples to pray in order to allow My windows of heaven to open and flood them with My blessings which would cause them to be spiritually prosperous, happy, to be envied and with life-joy and satisfaction in My favor and salvation regardless of outward conditions.  In that prayer He broached the subject of forgiveness in which He said for them, and you also, to pray that I would forgive their sins if they would also forgive the sins of other people.  (Matthew 6:12)  Immediately after His ending of "so be it" which is what "amen" means, Jesus launched into a further explanation regarding forgiving other people, magnifying the importance of forgiveness.
   Jesus taught you and the rest of My children that if you forgive the reckless and willful trespasses of other people then I will also be able to forgive you.  But if you do not forgive the reckless and willful sins of other people, then I will not be able to also forgive you of your trespasses.  There is further explanation from the Holy Spirit.  "Forgive" means for you to let go of the sins and trespasses of other people, to send them forward away from you, sending them out of your memory and releasing the resentment that you have for the person.  The reason that Jesus said that I can't forgive you unless you forgive other people  is because if you insist on holding onto resentment in your mind then I cannot erase it from your mind because you own your own mind.
    I gave to humans free will to do everything, so if you choose not to forgive someone and choose to hold onto the resentment, then I cannot also forgive you, and you will suffer the consequences of your obeying the devil's temptation not to forgive.  In that choice you have signed on the bottom line of doing the devil's will in the earth which produces destruction and death in your life on earth. (Matthew 6:14-15)  I would love to forgive you, but I cannot override your will if you choose to hold onto resentment, seeking vengeance.  It's not that I won't by an act of My will forgive you.  It's because you have, yourself, chosen to go that route.  I have no control over your choices, so when you have chosen not to forgive someone then you have left My family and joined with the devil's corrupt family of hatred and retaliation and the seeds that you sow into that garden will grow plants of destruction in your garden of life on earth.
    If you don't know the height, width, breadth and depth of My love for you, then you have no desire to forgive someone.  Only when you are intimately acquainted with My Love can you forgive someone from your heart because you know that My Love extends to that person as well as to you.  (Ephesians 3:14-31)  You finally realize, along with the truth that I love you and everyone else in the world, that because I have freely forgiven you of your sins that you must also forgive other people in the same way with the power of My Holy Spirit. (Romans 5:6-8)
    It is not that I choose not to forgive you.  It's that I can't forgive you because I cannot override your will if you choose to hold onto the resentment.  In other words, when you choose to retain the sins of other people, you also choose for your sins to not be forgiven.
    You hold the keys to your forgiveness from Me.

BLESSING CLARIFICATION 8A

My Dear Precious Child,
    In the perfect prayer as taught by Jesus Christ to His disciples, which includes you, the first thing that He instructed is that you address Me as "Father," not king, not your majesty, not God, not Lord, but "Father in heaven".   That was strange to the ears of the Jews because the image of Me in their eyes was that of a king who was going to set up a kingdom in Jerusalem when their Messiah came to them.  To call Me their Father sounded like blasphemy to the ears of the Jews, but Jesus instructed them on the proper name with which they were to address Me.  He said, "Our Father" was to be their proper name for them to address Me. 
    He said "Our" as a revelation to them that I am the Father of all mankind.  He said, "in heaven," in order for them to differentiate between Me as their spiritual Father and their own earthly fathers.  So that was spiritual insight just in that first phrase of the proper way to address Me, by the more familiar term of Father instead of God, Lord or King.  "Father" indicates a personal father/child relationship instead of a king/subject relationship.   Then Jesus indicated that there was still a Hebrew name for Me known to them that was holy and hallowed, but "Father" is the name by which I am to be known by My children.(Matthew 6:9)
    Then Jesus taught them to pray that My kingdom would come on earth as it is in heaven.  He was privy to My plan for the salvation of the earth, but He also knew that the disciples needed to pray that My kingdom of heaven would come on earth to live in it by living inside of My children.  That mystery was something that was a little too imaginative for them to conceive at that time, but He knew that their praying that My kingdom would come on earth as it is in heaven was necessary because I can only manifest My presence in the earth at the request of humans.  I had limited My access to the earth when I gave to the first man the authority over the whole entire earth.  So it was necessary for Me to receive an invitation from people before I could make Myself manifested in the earth.(Matthew 6:10)
    Then Jesus instructed the disciples, and you, to pray that when My kingdom came to earth that I would live inside of them and that I would be able to give to each one of them (including you in your time on earth) My daily spiritual words of guidance that would supply My exact spiritual wisdom and knowledge to them in order to help them live their lives free from the works of the devils who runs rampant in the earth seeking whom they may devour (I Peter 5:8) 
   In that same part of the revelation of My salvation for the earth Jesus told the disciples to pray for the forgiveness of their sins/trespasses/iniquities/debts.  He did not tell them the way that the forgiveness of their sins would come to be, He just told them to pray for the forgiveness of their sins which was to come in relationship to My kingdom coming into their lives on earth.  (Matthew 6:11-12)
    Jesus had just spent 40 days fasting in the desert where He was tempted by the devil in the same way that the first man Adam was tempted: spirit, soul and mind.  He had confronted every temptation with the truths found in scriptures and so the devil had left Him after Jesus refused to yield to the devil in His being tempted.  So Jesus did not want My other children to have to battle against the devil in the way that He had.  He knew that only with the power of My Holy Spirit being resident in them would they be able to resist the same temptations that He had resisted.  It was because of My love in Jesus that caused Him to appeal to Me that each person should pray that he or she did not have to be tempted by the devil, just like He had.  My plan for the salvation of the world included the fact that I would lead Jesus Christ to be tempted by the devil to show the way for other people to resist the devil as He had when they were tempted. Thus, Jesus wanted the disciples to pray that it would not be necessary for them to also be tempted by the devil because they did not have the power of My Holy Spirit to defeat the devil.  Eventually on the day of Pentecost when they became filled with My Holy Spirit, they also had the same power source of My Holy Spirit inside of them that Jesus had.  Until then, they did not have the spiritual power to resist the devil and also to cast him out of them and into the fiery furnace of the abyss. (Matthew 6:13; Matthew 13:36-43)               
    He included in that prayer request for the disciples to ask that I deliver them from the devil of whom He referred to as "the evil one."   My plan of salvation for the world by My kingdom of God coming to live inside of My children when they accept the sacrifice of My Son Jesus and ask to be baptized in My Holy Spirit is when they receive the power of My Holy Spirit to authorize them to end the reign of the devil and his works in their lives.
    Everything that Jesus taught the disciples to pray that day came into being on the day of Pentecost when My Holy Spirit and My kingdom of God came to live in them and surround them with My glory.  They began to have power and authority over the devil and began to inherit blessings into their lives on earth. (Ephesians 1:17-23) The same was true in your life when you became born of My Spirit and baptized in My Holy Spirit.
    When Jesus gave honor to Me for My kingdom, power and glory, He was revealing the entirety of My power which is available to My children. 
    Today I say to everyone who is guided by My Holy Spirit and prays in My Holy Spirit this truth:
    FOR THINE IS THE KINGDOM, THINE IS THE POWER AND THINE IS THE GLORY, also, because you have My life in you in the person of the Holy Spirit.  Draw on My power for guidance and intercessory prayers, and My glory will manifest itself by bringing My kingdom into your life in its completeness.

BLESSINGS CLARIFICATION 8

My Dear Precious Child,
    Jesus Christ knew every key that opens the doors of My kingdom of God which allows Me to pour My abundant blessings into your life on earth.  We have talked about Isaiah's revelation that it is your iniquities and sins that build a barrier between earth and heaven that blocks your prayers from being heard by Me and blocks My ability to flood your life with My good rewards.  (Isaiah 59:1-5)  You cannot withhold food from the poor, withhold drink from the thirsty, continue to oppress strangers in your country, operate in anger and hatred and other sins against people and expect Me to be able to bless you.  When you oppress people, refuse to give food to the hungry and refuse to give water to the thirsty because you think they need to work for their sustenance, you have bonded with darkness and your attitudes are from hell instead of from Me. When people have a generational demon of poverty, they cannot dig themselves out until that demon is cast out. That is why Jesus began His ministry teachings with his teachings on attitudes; beginning each one with the promise that you will be blessed if you have certain attitudes such as meekness, kindness, mercy, being a peacemaker and having others of My Attributes, which are attitudes (Matthew 4:1-11)
    Unfortunately, the traditions of men often overtake the teachings of Jesus in My children of promise who are called by My name.  One of the most important ones is in the kind of atmosphere where prayers are answered. It has become a tradition of all churches that prayers are made to Me in congregational gatherings instead of like Jesus Christ taught to His disciples, which is also pertinent to you.  He said that you must not pray like the hypocrites who love to pray in front of people in an effort to show their spirituality, which is not what they think it is.  Jesus said it is hypocrisy.  When people make comments such as, "Oh, he prays the best prayers," or, "Oh, she really knows how to pray," then the traditions of people have overtaken My insight into praying.
   Public exhibitions of long prayers have become a tradition rather than My children taking the advice of Jesus Christ who taught His disciples how to pray.  Instead of doing what He said to do, which is to pray in private, they do the opposite, doing what He told them not to do which is to pray in public so that people while be impressed with their long, lavish prayers.  
    Jesus said emphatically to pray in your private room with the door closed so that you are alone with Me and you are praying only to Me in secret.  He said that if you pray the way that He instructed you, He said that I, who am in secret, will reward you openly.  In addition to that admonition, Jesus also said that when you pray do not pray like the unbelievers, heaping up phrases and words as if you are seeking for the right words that will activate Me and My blessings.  Your prayers using multiple flowery words do not impress Me.  I am not impressed at all with multiple words, like people are, that do not come from your heart. (Matthew 6:7)
    Then Jesus said something that is confusing to people.  He said that I know your needs before you ask Me. (Matthew 6:8)  Unless you know the truth about your attitudes, you might think that if I know your needs then why don't I meet them?  The key is what the prophet Isaiah wrote, that if you have allowed the devil's demons, by your bad attitudes, to erect a barrier between you and My heaven, then delivery of My blessings for you from heaven to earth and answers to your prayers is impossible because of the barrier that your bad attitudes have authorized.  (Isaiah 59:1-4) Attitudes of wanting praises of people because of long, flowery prayers is a huge detriment to your prayers being answered.
    In the sample prayer that Jesus used to teach His disciples He said for you to pray that My kingdom would come in your life on earth as it is in My heaven.  That is akin to His instructions for you to seek My kingdom and My righteousness and if you do, that EVERY GOOD THING WILL BE ADDED TO YOUR LIFE ON EARTH. (Matthew 6:33)
    All of the teachings of Jesus Christ were given so that you will have heaven on earth.  Follow His instructions on having the attitudes of My Holy Spirit in your mind, which is having the mind of Christ, and you will allow Me to fulfill My will in your life in answering your prayers.

 BLESSINGS CLARIFICATION 7
My Dear Precious Child,
    Jesus explained fully about the blessings that are available to flood into your life when you are born of My Holy Spirit, baptized in My Holy Spirit and are empowered by My Spirit to follow the teachings of Jesus Christ.  My blessings are abundant.  They make you joyful, happy, to be envied by other people and relishing in My favor and salvation from evil. The teaching of Jesus are in My History and Instruction Book called the Bible under the heading of the New Covenant or the New Testament.  His teachings are mostly in contrast to some that He quotes from the Old Covenant.  
    Jesus warned that, as was the practice by some under the old covenant, you do not do your deeds of charity publicly before men in order to be seen by them.  He said that if your motive of giving charitable gifts is to be seen by other people that you will have no reward from Me.  Instead, He said that when you give to the poor that you do not call attention to  your gift like the hypocrites do in the churches and communities so that you will be praised by men.  He said that people who have that attitude already have their praises from people so they will not have any rewards from Me because of their self-serving motivations.  (Matthew 6:1-2)
    Instead, Jesus told you that when you do deeds of charity that you should not even let your left hand know what your right hand is doing so that you will not be puffed up with pride.  If you give deeds of charity under that circumstance of becoming prideful, you already have your reward, which is your own pride.  But if you don't even know if you have given large amounts or small amounts from the goodness of your heart by not knowing if your sum was large or small, then I, being your Heavenly Father, who sees you in secret will reward you openly.  (Matthew 6:3-4)  It will be a secret between us and My heaven can pour rewards upon you.
   Can you see that His admonition has to do with your attitude behind your giving deeds of charity?  Thoughts and attitudes are important in My kingdom of God.  The fact that you give to the poor is not as important to Me as the attitude behind the gift of charity.  The attitude behind the giving can be from hell or from Me.  If your attitude is from a demon who is urging you to give gifts from a self-serving attitude of getting attention for yourself, then it is from the pits of hell that the rewards are only your self satisfaction.  But if your attitudes behind your gifts of charity are from a generous and pure heart of mercy and goodness, without wanting any attention for yourself, then the attitude behind your gifts of charity are from Me and My kingdom of God whose rewards are great.  Giving to receive attention for yourself is from your flesh where the demons influence you, but giving from a pure heart of mercy is giving as influenced by My Holy Spirit through whom I meet the needs of the poor.  (I Peter 2:11; I John 2:16; Romans 8:5)
    The teachings of Jesus Christ pertaining to the blessings that come into the lives of My children of promise relate to your having certain Godly attitudes. (Matthew 5:2-12) That is why those are called the Beatitudes, encouraging you to seek to choose to have certain attitudes present in your mind in order for you to be doing any earthly act as led by My Holy Spirit instead of your being led by the devil.  Making sure that the attitudes or motivations in your mind relating to your actions from Me and My family of Love will guarantee that you will be flooded with My glorious blessings instead of your being flooded with the devil's destruction, diseases and death while you live in the earth.
    Religion has taught My children that I am eager to keep My blessings from My children and so I make the process of inheriting My gracious rewards hard and laborious.  That lie began in hell and continues to be from hell.  The devil is the one who has made My blessings difficult for you to access.  His desire to become lord of the earth, which I created to be the image of My heaven, was his desire from the beginning after I exiled him from My kingdom of heaven.   His plan was to dominate the earth for himself, robbing My children of their rightful inheritance from Me, as his act of revenge on Me for My ostracizing him from My heaven.  My plan has always been to have children who have been restored to the original image of Adam who was created in My image before he became deceived and unwillingly polluted with the devil's character.  When My Holy Spirit comes to live in My children, His ministry is to restore them to My image by forming My character in them so that they can again effectively manage the earth that I created for them.  
    All of the teachings of Jesus Christ reflect My plan as taught by Him such as this, "For God loved and dearly prized the world so much that He sent His only Son into the world so that everyone who believes in Him would not perish but have eternal life.  For God did not send His Son into the world to destroy the world, but so that the world through Him might be saved." (John 3:16-17)  It is the devil's desire to destroy the world through men.  It is My desire to save the world through My Holy Spirit living in them. Thus are the teachings from Jesus Christ about how attitudes affect your ability to inherit My blessings while you live in the earth.  
    There is perpetually a war between the devil and Me for the future of the earth.  I said through Jesus Christ that it's My desire to save the earth.  Make that your aim and we will work together beautifully to get My will done in the earth.(Colossians 1:25-27)

My Dear Precious Child,
    In the clarifications of Jesus Christ relating to the old covenant scriptures, He told about certain ones and then He explained My new covenant insight into the blessings that were going to flood into the lives of  His disciples and followers when My Holy Spirit came to live inside of them, ushering in My kingdom of God which had been prophesied by all of the prophets of old.  His explanations contained knowledge and wisdom about how the Holy Spirit would give to them the supernatural power of My Holy Spirit to be able to do My righteous deeds instead of the unrighteous ones that the old laws required. 
    For Instance, Jesus reminded them, and you,  that the old laws said to love your neighbors but to hate your enemies.  Jesus said that with the power of My Holy Spirit working inside of you that you have the power of My Spirit to treat your enemies with love, praying for them instead of hating them.  (Leviticus 26:7; Matthew 5:43-44)  Later the apostle Paul said that while you were still a sinner that Christ died for you, which is the ultimate act of love.  (Romans 5:8) So Jesus Christ said that when you are able to love your enemies that you show that you are My children with My loving personality.  He reminds you that I make the sun to shine on both the good and the evil people and that I make the rain to fall on upright people and also wrongdoers.  (Matthew 5:45)
    It is the demon of hatred who makes you hate your enemies, but it is My Holy Spirit who empowers you to love your enemies.  In fact, Jesus Christ said that there are no rewards for you if you only love the people who love you, that even the evil people who collect taxes do that.  He called attention to the fact that if you only greet your brothers in a group of people then you are only doing what the unbelievers do and what you did when you were an unbeliever. (Matthew 5:46-47)
    Jesus revealed that My Holy Spirit's desire is to perfect you to the highest degree of maturity in godliness and character until you have reached the proper height of virtue and integrity in which you respond to an enemy with love.  (Matthew 5:48) It is with that degree of spiritual maturity that you can love your enemies with the same degree that you love your friends because you are loving your enemies with My love, seeing their spirit instead of their flesh.  He contrasted between your acting under the old covenant of laws and acting by the new covenant of My Holy Spirit by the way you treat your enemies.  My way is with My love and the devil's way is with his hatred.  His desire is to tempt you to hate people so that you will fight people which results in your killing each other and thus fulfilling the will of the devil in the earth.
    I said that My ways are higher than your ways were when you yielded to the devil working in your flesh.  (Isaiah 55:9)  My thoughts are also higher than your thoughts when you entertain the devil's tempting thoughts. When you yield to My thoughts instead of evil ones, you will love your enemies and pray for them, just like Jesus Christ coached you to do.  In fact, My Holy Spirit even went further and told you to never return evil for evil done to you.  He said for you to not only just pray for your enemies but He said that if your enemy is hungry that you should give him food and if he is thirsty that you should give him something to drink. His explanation is that you must not yield to the demonic spirit of vengeance that tempts you to return evil for evil done to you.  You must live at peace with all people, never being overcome with evil temptations but you must yield to My Spirit who entices you to overcome evil with good.  (Romans 12:17-21) 
    My Holy Spirit instructed you to let Me take revenge on your enemy for you.  (Romans 12:19-20)  He knew that I don't take revenge against the person who is your enemy, but I take revenge against the demons who are causing the person to become your enemy and lash out at you.   When you treat your enemies with love, I am able to send My angels to heap spiritual coals of fire upon the heads of your enemies which burn out the demons, leaving your enemies with good intentions toward you. (Proverbs 25:21-22; Ezekiel 10:1-3; Ezekiel 11:18-20)   When you act with My love toward your enemies by praying for them and doing good and loving deeds to them, it allows Me to send My angels to minister the cleansing power of My Holy Spirit to make changes in the person's character, turning their hearts from evil to good toward you.  Everybody on our side wins in that scenario, you win, your enemy wins and My kingdom of God wins that battle for the soul of the person.
    As you can see, when you do things the devil's way everybody dies.  But, as you can also see, when you do things My way, everybody wins because My ways are much higher in power and much more mighty than evil.  My Spirit gives you the power to love, pray for and do good to your enemies.  When you do, you gain a friend.
    Your Father of Mighty Ways

My Dear Precious Child,
    My first teachings from the mouth of My Son Jesus Christ after he was baptized in My Holy Spirit related to My blessings which were going to come into the lives of His disciples and His followers if they sought My kingdom and My righteousness.  His teachings refuted the limited truth about some of the old covenant scriptures.  He expounded on them and taught the real and enduring truth about them. 
    For instance, He brought to the attention of His disciples and followers the old law that says an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, a life for a life, a hand for a hand and a foot for a foot. (Deuteronomy 19:21)   The reasoning behind that law is the demonic spirit of retribution: what evil someone does to you, you have a legal right to also do to them. That destructive law of retribution and punishment is still the law in most nations in your time.
    However, Jesus said that for My children who belong to My kingdom of God, retribution is not to be obeyed.  Instead of returning evil for evil done to you, the reactions of My children in My kingdom of God are not to resist or do evil to a person who does evil to you, but instead you should turn the other jaw if he insists on continuing to hurt you.  Jesus further expounded on this new truth by saying that if someone sues you and wants to take an article of clothing from you, you must offer to give to him another article of clothing also. 
    Going further in His teaching, Jesus gave another example.  He said that if someone forces you to accompany him or her one mile, that you should also go with him or her two miles.  In other words, do not resist the person who does evil to you, but you must instead do good to the person who does evil to you.  Jesus knew that to return evil for evil done to you will cause evil to multiply in the situation and become a physical battle.  But if you don't return evil for evil done to you, then there is no more angry reaction by the person who did evil to you.  (Matthew 5:38-41)
    Jesus went further in explaining some more truth behind the reactions you must have now that you are in My new covenant of love.  He said that you must give to someone who keeps begging from you.  The reasoning behind that instruction relates to Jesus' teaching of refuting an eye for an eye.  A person robs from other people because he or she has no goods with which to be sustained in life, food, clothing and housing.   If he or she has the necessities of life, then there is no reason to steal.  The people who have a generational demon of poverty can never become completely self-providing because of that demon.  So if a person is begging from you, then your helping him or her out by giving to that person means that you keep that person from stealing, which is punishable by imprisonment.  So Jesus said to give to anyone who wants to borrow from you.  The same truth applies here.  If you allow the person to borrow your equipment, then you are allowing the person to work at his or her own skill and earn money to exist by feeding his or her own family or fulfill his or her need in some other way instead of resorting to stealing.  (Deuteronomy 15:9-11; Matthew 5:41-42)
    Jesus Christ  taught to His disciples what their loving reactions must be to the sins of other people which includes refusing to retaliate for evil done to you by someone but instead your reaction must be to bring peace to every dangerous situation.   Also His instruction to give to the person who begs from you and the truth of giving to someone who wants to borrow something from you will keep a desperate person from having to resort to stealing if he or she can't find any other way to provide for his or her family.  When you give out of your abundance, you give to Me because you have done it to the least of My children.  (Matthew 25:40 and 45)
    Most of the actions and reactions of My children in My kingdom of God are diametrically opposite to those under the old covenant laws.   Performing the actions of My kingdom of God returns to you multiple blessings.  Performing the actions of the old covenant laws  returns to you sin and death. (Romans 8:3)
    The old laws require punishment and retribution.   My new covenant instructions bring rehabilitation and restoration for everyone involved.  In fact, every time you act and react by the guidance of My Holy Spirit, you bring heaven into your life on earth.   It's definitely worth it to allow Him to guide you and teach you. (John 16:13)
    Your Father of Restoration
