What Are You Preaching?

     As I was praying today Father spoke to me and asked me to write down these words and share them with you. He said:

     I send this message to all who spread fear. Do you remember the cross? Do you remember that the sins of the whole world were taken away? Do you remember that all iniquity and darkness was removed from all by the sacrifice of my holy lamb?

     How can there be forgiveness and judgment? In one breath you bless my Son and say he took away the sins of the world and in the other breath you say I have cursed my people because of sin and all that is happening in the world is because I am angry.

     My loved ones; yes even you who spread falsehood are still my loved ones. Yet you are mistaken. Do you not remember that mercy triumphs over judgment? Do you not remember that my anger is only for a moment and my mercy endures forever?

     Those who spread fear are not spreading love. You tell my people to be afraid and tell them they are loved at the same time? You do understand that you are scattering and not gathering don’t you? It is my plan to gather all and gather I did. When my Son was lifted up on the cross he drew all men unto himself. He left none out. So why are you trying to drive away those whom I have gathered?

     Put away your religious teaching and come learn of me. I am humble and loving, not angry and revengeful. If you spent time with me instead of Moses you would understand this. Moses was faithful but you don’t even know what he taught. You only see the letter and you don’t know the spirit behind it. That letter still condemns and kills because you read it as a judge and not as a Father.

     My loved ones; yes once again I call you my loved ones. I don’t want you living in fear or spreading fear or having anything to do with fear. I told you over and over in my scriptures not to fear. I also told you that those who fear are not perfected in love.

     Put down your blood soaked sword and listen in your heart. You will find me kind and loving and full of grace towards all. Just like the Pharisees you try to add a lot of legalism to my grace. It’s by grace you are saved and not by keeping a lot of rules created by those who want to keep you in bondage.

     Once you learn of my love you will not need rules. When you fall deeply in love with the one who loves you deeply then you don’t need rules and regulations. Love will keep your heart in the right place and you won’t need anyone to tell you what you do by the nature of love. A bride who is deeply in love with her husband doesn't need rules to be faithful.

     So please those who call yourselves preachers; do you remember the last crisis you said was going to destroy everyone? You were wrong then and you are wrong now. You are still loved but you are wrong. I am not condemning you but asking you to return to your first love and put down the sword that you are swinging at your brethren.

     Let me ask you some questions: What about what you call Y2K? What about Sars? What about swine flu? What about Ebola? What about that Mayan Calendar and 12/12/12. What happened to all those blood moons? Only the weatherman can be wrong more than you and still keep his job. Just return to the truth of the gospel and follow love and peace with all.

     My Son is the Prince of Peace. What does that make me? The King of Peace? If I didn’t want the world and all the people I wouldn’t have created the world and birthed the people. People are spirit of my Spirit and I have blessed each of you and you can never be cursed. You can cry against all but you will never convince me of their guilt for I have declared all innocent by reason of my Son’s blood. Don’t call unclean what I have cleansed.

     So put away the fear and the doom and gloom. Trust in my love and my plan to create heaven on earth. I didn’t send my Son to save the world so he could destroy it later. 

     You misunderstood the plan of salvation. All will know me from the least to the greatest. They will know me sooner if you don’t drive them away in fear making them think that I am a wrathful angry God who can’t wait to swat them like a fly.

     Ask yourselves and answer honestly all those who preach doom. Have I ever dealt that way with you? When you make a mistake do you find my grace or my wrath? If I am kind to you and forgiving and loving then why do you think I would be any different to any of my other children?

     Stop scattering and gather with me. You have been given a ministry of reconciliation not condemnation. Do you not remember what my beloved Paul told you in his letter to the Corinthians; the one you call Second Corinthians Chapter Five?

     Therefore from now on we recognize no one according to the flesh; even though we have known Christ according to the flesh, yet now we know Him in this way no longer. 

Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come. 

Now all these things are from God, who reconciled us to Himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation, namely, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and He has committed to us the word of reconciliation.

     I was in my Son on that Cross. Holy Spirit was in him Also. All of us working together to reconcile all things in heaven and earth back unto the glory that it truly is. I did not forsake him as you were told. I was with him and in him because of my love for all mankind.

     So throw away the ministry of condemnation and return to the ministry of reconciliation. No more dividing people because of race or religion or difference in doctrine. All men are made in my image and if you can’t love your brother whom you can see then how can you profess love for me?

     I am calling you who declare gloom and doom to take another look at the cross. It was not the vengeance of an angry God but the mercy of a loving Father who would sacrifice all I had to save the ones I love beyond measure. 

     Those who know me only as God don’t understand but those who know me as Abba Father understand perfectly. I Am Love and not wrath. I love each and every person who has been or will ever be born with everlasting love.

     I love you the same way even though you are misinformed about me. I am kind and loving and merciful beyond eternity. My mercy endures forever so return to my love and leave behind the fear. It’s my goodness that leads men to repentance and fear just drives them away.

     The earth will be filled with my glory. It already is if you could only see with the eyes of the spirit. Man is the glory of God as you are told in your scriptures.

     This world is not coming to an end. It is coming to a glorious awakening called the revelation of the Sons of God. A day when all know me from the least to the greatest; and a day when a lamb will lie down next to the wolf and all will be at peace. A day when their will be no harm on all of my holy mountain. All of these things are written in your scriptures and yet you skip over them to declare guilty those whom I have made innocent.

     This current crisis will pass and all will be restored. Not one is lost. Those who leave your world come to mine. Death was already defeated. Spirits don’t die. This is not a time to preach fear but a time to extend my loving grace and mercy to all.

     All who call yourselves preachers ask yourself this one question. Am I preaching a glorious gospel? The only true gospel is glorious. So what are you preaching? Why don’t you stop scaring the hell out of people and start loving it out of them instead? Love never fails!



     This is the end of the words He spoke to me earlier today.
I hope you are encouraged by these words.
Until next time,
Grow Rich in His Grace,
I love you all,

The Truth About You

We Are Going To The Other Side

Psalm Twenty Three

The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.
He makes me lie down in green pastures.
He leads me beside still waters.
He restores my soul.
He leads me in paths of righteousness
for his name’s sake.

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil,
for you are with me;
your rod and your staff,
they comfort me.

You prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies;
you anoint my head with oil;
my cup overflows.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
all the days of my life,
and I shall dwell in the house of the LORD
forever.


Matthew Chapter Fourteen

22. Immediately he made the disciples get into the boat and go before him to the other side, while he dismissed the crowds. And after he had dismissed the crowds, he went up on the mountain by himself to pray. 

When evening came, he was there alone, but the boat by this time was a long way from the land, beaten by the waves, for the wind was against them. 

 And in the fourth watch of the night he came to them, walking on the sea. But when the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were terrified, and said, “It is a ghost!” and they cried out in fear. But immediately Jesus spoke to them, saying, “Take heart; it is I. Do not be afraid.”

And Peter answered him, “Lord, if it is you, command me to come to you on the water.” He said, “Come.” So Peter got out of the boat and walked on the water and came to Jesus. 

 But when he saw the wind, he was afraid, and beginning to sink he cried out, “Lord, save me.” Jesus immediately reached out his hand and took hold of him, saying to him, “O you of little faith, why did you doubt?” And when they got into the boat, the wind ceased. And those in the boat worshiped him, saying, “Truly you are the Son of God.”



     As I was praying for each of you today Father spoke to me and asked me to write down these words and share them with you. He said:

     My beloved children: Do not be afraid! Again I say: Do not be afraid!

     There is no reason to fear. These things you are facing will pass. Remember that there are only three things that eternally remain and these are faith, hope and love. All other things are temporary and will pass.

     I would like to remind you that I am still on my throne and that throne is in your heart. I am with you and in you so much that we are not two but one. You are Spirits of my Spirit. You have no reason to fear. You are an eternal being. Even if you move out of your body you only move into a better one. No reason to fear.

     My loved ones we are going through this together. I told you that if you walk through the valley of the shadow of death I would be with you. Remember that it’s only a shadow. Why would you be afraid of a shadow? We are going out the other side of this together.

     Take just a moment and remember those who came before you. The children of Israel went through the Red Sea and through the wilderness. 

The three Hebrew children went through the fire and all that was burned was the ties that bound them. 

Daniel went through the lion’s den. 

Most of all; my Son went through a beating and through the cross and through the tomb and through hell and back and remains forever my Son and your King.

     So why are you afraid? Those who are afraid are only afraid because they think they are separated from me. They think I am far away in heaven and they are on earth fending for themselves. Nothing could ever be farther from the truth. I am with you always.

     My loved ones: You were crucified with Christ and yet you live. The life force keeping you alive now is not your spirit. It is mine. Your lives are hidden in my Son and my Son is hidden in me. None can pluck you out of my hand. You are just as safe as you would be in heaven for that is where you really are. Only in your mind are you anywhere else. You are seated with me in the heavenly realm. Only your mind goes to the lower levels. There is nothing to fear.

     So please my loved ones. Put on your walking shoes. We are going through this time of trouble and out the other side but we will not go through it in fear but in joy and singing. It is my delight to be your protector. I am Almighty God and I am in you and with you to ensure your safety.

     Just remember the lesson you learned through my beloved Peter. You can walk on the stormy waters as long as you keep your eyes on me and even if you start to sink I will catch you. Oh my sweet loved ones: If only you knew just how safe you are.

     There is nothing to fear. I fed a whole nation in the wilderness and not only them but their livestock also. I provided them with food and water and shelter and heat and cool and clothing. 

     What you are going through is not a challenge to me. Just rest in my love for you and fill your hearts and voices with song. This is a great time to rejoice for your God is in you and with you.

     Soon you will forget about this time and place and it will be just a distant memory. I am with you and we are going to the other side. Do not be afraid. Again I say rejoice for we are going to the other side.

This is the end of the words He spoke to me moments ago.
I hope you are encouraged by these words.
Until next time,
Grow Rich in His Grace,
I love you all,

Hello Love: Goodbye Fear!

     An audio version of this message will soon be available at the link below.

michaelottministries.podomatic.com

First John Chapter Four

15. Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God. So we have come to know and to believe the love that God has for us. God is love, and whoever abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him. By this is love perfected with us, so that we may have confidence for the Day of Judgment, because as he is so also are we in this world.

There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear. For fear has to do with punishment, and whoever fears has not been perfected in love.



     I was praying early this morning for all those who are affected by the virus that is the big news all over the world. I see so much fear and even see churches closing in fear and it saddens me that so many of us who claim to be people of faith are acting just like we don’t know the good news of who our God is and how much we are loved.

     As I was praying I asked Father what I should share with those whom I can reach to try to calm their fears and get them back focused on truth. Father spoke to me and said “give them these words.” Hello Love: Goodbye Fear.

     He then told me to write down these words and publish them for all to read and hear. He said:

     My loved ones: Did you forget? Did you forget you have a savior who delivered you from darkness and brought you into our kingdom? Why are you afraid? Did you forget how much you are loved? Do you not know that even the hairs of your head are numbered?
I know every detail in your life. I know all about you and know things about you that you haven’t discovered yet.

     I love you with love so great that I calculated your lives and down to the cellular level. I know your cells individually. I know and love all things about you. So why do you continue to lose focus on truth and gravitate to fear? 

     As you heard in the scriptures above, those who are afraid are not perfected in love, for fear is based on belief that you deserve torment. Once you are perfected in love you will not fear anything in this world or in the one to come or in heaven above or down below. There is nothing to fear.

     My loved ones: I told you in scripture that he that is joined to me is “one” Spirit. You must stop seeing yourselves as separated from me. I am not near to you. I am in you. We are not two. We are one. You were baptized into my Son. You are not separated from him.

     When fear tries to steal your thoughts imagine that Jesus is standing between you and whatever you are afraid of. Now see yourself stepping into Jesus and hiding inside him. This is where you truly are already. You are “in” Christ. So where is your fear now?

     My sweet beloved ones: I love you too much to allow you to dwell in fear when you can dwell in my peace. You don’t have to be afraid. Fear is a choice. You can choose to laugh or cry. You can choose to be happy or sad. You can choose to be bold or fearful.

     What do you have to lose? You are living in eternity already. Life has come and swallowed up all the death that could ever affect you. You have already passed from death to life. So why be afraid of the road you have already traveled that lies way behind you?

     To live is Christ, to die is gain. Do you remember these words from my beloved Paul? You have absolutely nothing to fear. 

     Here is the way you fight the fear that is tormenting you. You surrender to love. You don’t have to scream and fight or bind any imaginary being that religion scared you with. You just submit yourself to me and that is how you fight the fallen mindset of fear. You overcome evil with good. You don’t have to fight evil with anything other than the good news of what was already done for you.

     Please my loved ones. Say hello to love and goodbye to fear. Never be afraid again. Stand strong in my love for love is the power of my might. Love never fails and you live inside my love. No more fear. Trust and rejoice for all this will shortly pass by and you will wonder why you were afraid.

     Don’t buy the doom and gloom and fear they are selling you. Stand in the truth. If you abide in my secret place then nothing can touch you. If you dwell in fear you open yourself up for the torment that fear brings. All things work together for your good because you love me. When all this fear has gone you will find that you not only made it through but came out the other side even more blessed.

     My loved ones; I am with you and in you and you are in me and we are one. Don’t be afraid my little ones. The God who watches over you watches from inside you and I never sleep or slumber. Your Shepherd knows how to protect the flock. Trust in him. Once again my loved ones: Say: Hello LOVE: Goodbye fear!

     This is the end of the words he gave me this morning.
I hope you are encouraged by these words.
Until next time,
Grow Rich in His Grace,
I love you all,
michael

Sharing The True Gospel

John Chapter One

29. The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him and said, “Look! The Lamb of God who takes away the (sin of the world!)


First Corinthians Chapter Fifteen

22. For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ shall (all) be made alive. But each in his own order:

Second Corinthians Chapter Five

14. For the love of Christ controls us, because we have concluded this: that one has died for all, therefore (all have died;) and he died for all, that those who live might no longer live for themselves but for him who for their sake died and was raised.

From now on, therefore, we regard no one according to the flesh. Even though we once regarded Christ according to the flesh, we regard him thus no longer.

    Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come. All this is from God, who through Christ reconciled us to himself and gave us the ministry of reconciliation; that is, in Christ God was reconciling the world to himself, (not counting their trespasses against them,) and entrusting to us the message of reconciliation. 

 Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ, God making his appeal through us. We implore you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God. For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God. 

First John Chapter Two

1. My dear children, I am writing this to you so that you will not sin. But if anyone does sin, we have an advocate who pleads our case before the Father. He is Jesus Christ, the one who is truly righteous. He himself is the sacrifice that atones for our sins and (not only our sins but the sins of the whole world.)

Acts Chapter Ten

1. In Caesarea there lived a Roman army officer named Cornelius, who was a captain of the Italian Regiment. He was a devout, God-fearing man, as was everyone in his household. He gave generously to the poor and prayed regularly to God. One afternoon about three o’clock, he had a vision in which he saw an angel of God coming toward him. “Cornelius!” the angel said.

Cornelius stared at him in terror. “What is it, sir?” he asked the angel.

And the angel replied, “Your prayers and gifts to the poor have been received by God as an offering! Now send some men to Joppa, and summon a man named Simon Peter. He is staying with Simon, a tanner who lives near the seashore.”

As soon as the angel was gone, Cornelius called two of his household servants and a devout soldier, one of his personal attendants. He told them what had happened and sent them off to Joppa.

The next day as Cornelius’s messengers were nearing the town, Peter went up on the flat roof to pray. It was about noon, and he was hungry. But while a meal was being prepared, he fell into a trance. He saw the sky open, and something like a large sheet was let down by its four corners. In the sheet were all sorts of animals, reptiles, and birds. Then a voice said to him, “Get up, Peter; kill and eat them.”

“No, Lord,” Peter declared. “I have never eaten anything that our Jewish laws have declared impure and unclean.”

But the voice spoke again: “Do not call something unclean if God has made it clean.” The same vision was repeated three times. Then the sheet was suddenly pulled up to heaven.


Ephesians Chapter One

11. In Him we were also chosen as God’s own, having been predestined according to the plan of Him who works out everything by the counsel of His will,

First Timothy Chapter Two

1. I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior; (who will have all men to be saved,) and to come unto the knowledge of the truth. For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; Who gave himself (a ransom for all,) to be testified in due time.



     As I was praying today these verses bubbled up into my heart. As I meditated on them Jesus spoke to me and asked me to write down these words and share them with you. He said:

     My loved ones; stop calling unclean what I have cleansed! I poured out my blood to save all. I was lifted up and drew all men unto me. Yet my very own church tries to divide people from people. I do not divide. I gather all things together into one, in heaven and earth.

     My loved ones, you must learn and share the true gospel. What I did I did for all. I am the light that lights every man who comes into the world. It is my will that none should perish and my will is being done.

     My church divides people into what they call lost and saved. I see men as they truly are. They are washed in my blood and cleansed from all unrighteousness. I died for all; so all died. Each and every one was crucified with me on that cross. I did this so I could have grace on all. If only my church would share the grace they find for themselves with the ones they try to pronounce unclean.  My loved ones; I already sanctified, justified and glorified and when you call any man unclean you are calling me a liar. 

     It’s time to unlearn the lies you have learned by religion. When I was on the cross my Father was with me. Holy Spirit was with me as you were told by Paul in his letter to the Corinthians. I was not counting men’s sins against them. If I have forgiven then why do my people hold sins against others?

     This is why evangelism is so hard for my church. They don’t see my finished work. Instead of telling people that I have already forgiven their sins and taken their blame they try to convince them of sin and make them feel guilty. This is not the gospel. The gospel is not what you must do but what I already did.

     The only way to win the hearts of those you are trying to reach is by telling them the truth. They are not wicked. They are asleep to the righteousness that was imputed to them. This is why you were told to awake unto righteousness and sin not. Those who walk in unrighteousness are asleep to the fact that they have been made right by the blood that I shed for them. The awakening to the truth is what you call being born again. It’s that moment you realize that I am inside you and not far away.

     It’s time to tell the truth. Speak the truth in love. Tell others that they are forgiven and loved and they were included in my plan before the world was made. This is the true gospel and it is the great news!

     Did you notice in scripture when the blind man came to me I asked him what he wanted me to do? I saw him as complete. I didn’t see the lie of his blindness. I saw the truth of his sight and called him up to the truth. It’s the same with the man with the withered hand. I told him to stretch forth his hand. I didn’t see it as withered but saw it perfectly whole and called him up to the higher truth of his wholeness.

     This is the way that prayer and evangelism works. You take those who are sick and broken and you declare to them the truth that they were reconciled to me on that cross. They are innocent because of my sacrifice and then call them up to the higher truth that they are well and loved and whole. You will know the truth and the truth will make you free. The truth is you are forgiven and loved and blessed and whole and focusing on the truth destroys the lies of hate and sickness and poverty.

     As long as you condemn and separate you will never gather with me but will only scatter. You must see each person as I see them. No longer see them as a flesh creature but see them as a spirit born of incorruptible seed from an incorruptible Father.

     Always come back to the message of the prodigal son. He may have been in sin and lack and brokenness but he never ceased being a son. You are not a son because of what you do but you are a son because you were born of Spirit. Come up to the truth and bring all whom you know with you to this truth.

     Never call unclean what I have cleansed. Learn to see only good and do not look for evil. Find the light in each and every person you meet and fellowship with the light within them. 

     I have given every man the measure of faith. Find that faith within them and reveal it to them. Love conquers all. I am the light that lights every man who comes into the world so look for my light in all. You will find it if you keep looking. Keep looking for the light and do not condemn.

     My little children love each other as I have loved you. Don't forget that you are my beloved and so are all. My love never fails. So walk and live in my love.

     This is the end of the words he spoke to me earlier today.
I hope you are encouraged by these words.
Until next time,
Grow Rich in His Grace,
I love you all,
michael
