CALMING PEACE

Dear One,

You should rely upon the peace that passes understanding when you are in the middle of a trial, remembering that all trials are sent by the devil to take away your peace and love.
You can reach down within the core of your body where the true person lives, which is your spirit, and you can find peace in the midst of the trying matter.
My peace will cover turmoil, indecision, strife and all unrest. My peace is the result of your spirit knowing before the evil situation is over that the end result will be advantageous to you.
Peace is the absence of confusion and unrest.
I said, "Let not your heart be troubled," and I said, "My peace I give to you." My peace is the peace that passes understanding and it is based on confidence and trust in Me.
I have everything under control when you put your trust in Me.

Love, God
John 14:1: John 14:27; Philippians 4:6-8.

SUFFICIENT GRACE

Dear One,

Don't assume that My grace ceases in the midst of a tragedy. Have you considered that My presence is made known to the victims during a tragedy and that painful conseqences to the victims of the tragedy may be nonexistent because of My grace?
Often the spirits of victims of a deadly tragedy leave their bodies, which are the vehicles of pain, and they come with Me into heaven before anything unpleasant is felt. That is part of the gift of grace to My children, escaping the pain that would normally be present in a deadly situation.
I meet everyone at the point of need, even in tragedies, no matter how bizarre or horrible they may seem.
Trust that My grace is sufficent, even in tragedies, so that My children can overcome everything.
You would snatch your children out of a deadly tragedy. So do I. Then I take them to heaven to live victoriously with Me. Things of earth grow dim in the light of My glory and grace.

Love, God

FEAR AND UNREST

Dear One,
Don't ever voluntarily or willingly exchange peace in your mind for fear or unrest. When you do that, you are upsetting the spiritual balance of your mind, tipping the scales from one world, the world of heaven, and tipping the scale toward another world, the world from hell. Fear and unrest are the climate of hell. Peace and serenity are the climate of heaven.
Would you willingly choose to enter into a weather pattern of tumultuous storms and tornadoes and hurricanes if there was another available weather pattern of sunshine, restful breezes and sweet aromas? Of course not. However, people willingly expose their minds to images of killings, murders, jealousy, covetousness, licenciousness, condemnation and abuse of others, even when they could choose loving, encouraging, beautiful, heart warming images. That is more of the choice revelation that we have talked about before.
What is more valuable to you, the perversion or the purity?
You must make the choice when you are faced with thoughts that come from heaven or hell.
Choose the climate of My heaven for your mind and blessings will follow. Choose the hellish climate for your mind and curses will follow.
Curses come in various disguises.
Blessing come in multiple wrappings, like prosperity, health, loving relationships, peaceful mental activity and on and on.
You must also choose what you feed into your mind. The images you see will come back to haunt you or bless you, depending from which spiritual location they come, either heaven or hell.
Choose loving, peaceful, merciful, good and kind food for your mind, and then choose loving, peaceful, merciful, good and kind thoughts. Let peace reign in your life.
Love, God
Proverbs 4:20-27; Philippians 4:4-8

THOUGHT POWER

Dear One,
While you are teaching and learning more about the awesome power of your words, do not forget the truth about your thoughts. Thoughts are the precursors to your words and actions. The sequence is that thoughts become attitudes, and the attitudes become actions in words or deeds. That is the natural order.
The deception is in the falsehood that you can't choose your thoughts. That is the real lesson you must learn from the Garden of Eden, that you have choices between good and evil. That comes from your ability to choose your thoughts, which ones to accept to stay in your mind and which ones to refuse. Whatever thoughts you keep in your mind and meditate upon will become activities you perform and will either bless you or curse you.
Your adversary, the devil, entices you to commit his actions, which are called sins. I impress you to commit My actions, which are called righteous acts. The choice is your between good or evil, blessings or curses and the choice begins in your thought life. It's called thought life because the activity in your thoughts produce life changing results, either good or bad.
Learn this truth well so that you will know how to discern the spirits who influence your mind, whether they are of Me or whether they are of the evil one. Even thoughts of judgment will produce detrimental effects in your life because judgment will return to you in the measure you have judged.
Do not entertain the thoughts that come from hell. They are meant to destroy you. All negative thoughts are from hell; yes, even anger thoughts, disgust thoughts, abuse thoughts, condemnation thoughts, strife thoughts, division thoughts, pride thoughts, jealousy thoughts, covetous thoughts, envy thoughts and vanity thoughts. Stop those thoughts while they are at the door of your mind, before they gain entrance or you begin to act upon their vengeful instructions.
Replace detrimental thoughts with My good thoughts of love, joy, peace, goodness, kindness, mercy and faith. You can find a promise in My Instruction Book to replace every thought temptation of the enemy, just like Jesus did. My promises, which are My thoughts for you, cover every temptation that the enemy can introduce into your mind. Choose Me and My thoughts every time and blessings will flow to you like a river from the heavens.
The choice between good and evil always begins with thoughts which will bring blessings or curses.
Your thoughts are not a private world. They are public in the heavens because they are either given to you by heaven or hell. Then you make a choice. Choose thoughts that will produce a positive, loving, peaceful future for you. That is My desire for you, to be loving, peaceful and joyful.

Love, God

TIES THAT BIND

Dear One,
When you assume the role of controller in the lives of other people, your adult children, your friends, your business associates, you are working from the spirit of pride, insinuating that you are the only one who can adequately handle situations. You are being anxious that the other person that you are attempting to control is unable to function without your seemingly perfect methods of operation. That is grounds for rebellion in the other person.
When you attempt to be in control of the thoughts, attitudes or actions of others, it will ruin their lives and it will ruin your life.
Give up the puppet strings that you have so willingly clutched in an attempt to motivate, drive or push others. You get the strings tangled and knotted and nothing is accomplished. Then when you finally decide to pray about the situation, it takes Me longer to untangle and unknot the lives of the people you have insisted on trying to control. Most often, you have gotten tangled in the strings also and have them knotted around yourself, which actually makes you controlled by the circumstances rather than free to be happy and productive.
I give free will to you, yes, even to make mistakes. You learn valuable lessons from those mistakes. You must give free will to your children and to everyone, praying for Me to lead them into the right paths. I am better equipped than you are.
Remember that the strings you try to attach to others in an attempt to control their paths will come back and bind you. Then you lose your joy.
Love, God

CHOICES

Dear One,

To be in control of the life of another person is an awesome responsibility, and no human is capable enough to do it.
When a parent refuses to release a child to Me so that My plans can be put into effect in that child's life, then the parent is refusing to give up control. Control is a burden, a full-time endeavor when you try to control another person's life, his future or his behavior.
Sometimes people refuse to release a loved one from the earth so that the beloved one can come to live with Me in the heavens. That is a form of control, wanting to keep the dying person resident in the earth rather than releasing him to a life of paradise with me. Again, in that instance one person is assuming complete responsibility for the life of another one by refusing to give the person the free will to leave.
I have said that I loved the world so much that I "gave" My son to you and for you. When you love someone to the highest degree of love, then you give that person the right of free will to choose for himself, choosing his directions for his own life or choosing the time of departure from it.
Sometimes a person will clutch onto another person, fearing that that loved one will make mistakes which will harm him. In that situation, your fear will attract the ill fate to the other person, anyway. So the key is to release your emotional control of the person, turn him over to Me, pray for him and then you will be free of the emotional torment that comes from your self imposed control.
My first gift of free will must be reciprocated by My children in relation to their own grown children because controlling another person has bad implications for you. It burdens you and makes you a pack mule.
Release every burdensome responsibility you have taken upon yourself for the lives of your grown children and you will be free, just like I intended you to be.
Love, God

WINNERS

Dear One,
Many people are looking to win without realizing that they are already winners.
Many people who are already winners are expecting to lose in every area of their lives because they don't know that they are winners.
The state of your mind is more important than the state of your situation. Winning and losing are both states of mind. One has positive thought patterns, the other has negative thought patterns. One looks at circumstances, the other looks at the future results that I promise. One looks at the temporal, which is merely temporary. The other looks at the eternal, which produces perfect results every time. The temporal can change. The eternal view, which comes from My revelations, can only effect perfect changes because they are firm and stable, ordained by Me.
Accept that you are winners and expect to continue to win. I have ordained it! I know the beginning and the end.
Love, God
