Ephesians Chapter Three


14. When I think of all this, I fall to my knees and pray to the Father, the Creator of everything in heaven and on earth. I pray that from his glorious, unlimited resources he will empower you with inner strength through his Spirit. 

 Then Christ will make his home in your hearts as you trust in him. Your roots will grow down into God’s love and keep you strong. And may you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love is. May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God.

Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think. Glory to him in the church and in Christ Jesus through all generations forever and ever! Amen.



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

     My little children: Most of you do not know that there are endless treasures of my love and riches available to you. These things are all part of your inheritance that you received by my Son. He inherited all things when he overcame death and yet he loved you so much that he shared them all with you.

     All things were rightfully his because he conquered death and all things that could be conquered. By his love you have received all these things but most of you are unaware because you see yourselves as servants and not as children of the house.

     My loved ones, you can’t earn these things. It’s not by some formula or some magical working of faith or any other thing that your enemy called "organized religion" tells you that it is. You were born with your inheritance because you are my children.

     So why are you doing without and living well below your family name? It is because you haven’t let your roots grow down deep into my love for you. It’s when you come to know my love for you that you are filled with the fullness of all things. All these things were given to you and are inside you but because you think they are still to be earned and not to be inherited you don’t access them.

     Knowing you are loved makes all the difference. It’s knowing that we are inseparable and we are one that gives you access to all you desire. This is why you were told that when you pray believe that you already have these things and you will have access to them. You must believe that your received them by inheritance and not by works.

     Think of it this way: How did you get your last name? There are only two ways to get a last name. You can be born with it or you can marry and take the name of your husband. Now consider this. You did both. You are my child but the bride of my Son so you inherited our name twice. You are doubly empowered to access all that is or ever was.

     So how does this work? It is based on desire. You were told whatsoever you desire when you pray believe you have it. This power called desire will bring out of you what you already possess.

     Think of it this way. If you are hungry you desire food. The food is in the refrigerator or in the store or in a restaurant but your desire will bring you the food you want. It will lead you to access the food no matter where it is and you will not be satisfied until you have eaten it.

     It’s the same with your spouse. You desired them and that desire brought you together. Without desire you would only be acquaintances if even that, and would not know the riches of love.

     I put within each of you different desires based on what is best for your lives. All I have given you is based on my love for you and my desire that you possess all things and be full of joy. I’m not speaking of selfish fleshly desires that are only on a surface level. I am speaking of deep rooted desires to bring forth my kingdom into the earth. Desires to be blessed and well and to be able to help others and be the blessing to others that Christ is to you. This “deep rooted” desire takes you back to how all things work.

     You start by knowing that all things you want are already given to you. The only reason you desire them is because deep down you know I have already given them to you and you desire them because they are a gift of my love. You long for what is already yours.

     I have given you the seeds to grow anything you want to possess. Just like a farmer desires a crop so he plants his seeds in the earth so you plant your seeds deep into your heart where my love is. You must realize that my love is the best soil ever. You take the things you are passionate for and you desire greatly and you continue planting them deep into your heart by using your imagination.

     This is how it works. You know I have already given you all that you could ever need or want. So you use your imagination and you see the thing you desire in its fullness. Now imagine you have a seed for what you are wanting. You see that your heart is the garden so you plant that seed deep within my love and you water it every day with thanksgiving. Thanksgiving is the water that waters the seed. And just like a natural seed you don’t really know how a seed takes root and grows up into the world but your desire will do the same. What you plant in your thought will grow into your world.

     It’s the same with the ones you love. You take the message of Christ and you keep sharing with them how good he is. The message will get planted in their hearts and will spring up. One plants, another waters and God gives the increase. Jesus is the light that lights every man that comes into the world. The "seed" called Christ is already within each person. You are just watering their desire to discover him.

     When you look at your loved ones don’t imagine them sick or poor. See them as well and whole and blessed and keep planting these images in your heart. Keep giving thanks that your loved ones are well and blessed and whole and watch what happens. Remember that you are all one body so what you plant in your heart will come up in theirs also. 

     This is what is happening to the church. Half of the church believes in doom and gloom and they keep planting seeds of destruction into the body. Most of the trouble in the earth is not the fault of sin but the fault of my children pronouncing evil on what I have blessed. 

     It is my will that all men would be saved but the church is declaring unclean that which I have already cleansed and are planting thorns and thistles into the garden of the earth. This will change soon as all my children awake and start planting only good seeds. They will declare the healing and salvation of the nations and it will be so. 

     This is how Jesus healed. He saw the blind man as a seeing man and restored him to what he saw in his heart. He saw the lame walking and the dead restored to life. In Christ shall all be made alive! So only see others as alive and well. What you see in your heart is more powerful and has the power to change what is seen with natural eyes.

     Remember this principle. I give seed to the sower and bread for food. I will give you the desires of your heart for you to plant. I will give you bread for food until your harvest comes. You can’t lose because I watch over your seed and I give the increase.

     Just remember my loved ones that you already own all things. The earth is your inheritance. Just remember the process. I put Adam into a Garden and made him from physical dust. I breathed my life into him. Yet even the dust man had the ability to tend my garden.

     However: My Son the Christ is a life giving Spirit. He came into the world by Spirit and so did you. You are made of Spiritual dust and not earthly dust. You are in Christ and not in Adam so your ground is much richer and much more fertile. You have access not only to all the ground of earth but also the garden of heaven.

     You are both the garden and the farmer. Whatever you plant into your heart grows up into your natural world. Only plant good things because your ground doesn’t care what you plant it will grow fruit or weeds depending on what you plant with your thoughts. Never forget your thoughts are the seeds you are planting into your heart. Change your thoughts and change your harvest.

     Never forget my loved ones. You are so loved that I gave all I had including myself to prove my love to you. Let your roots be in my love and not in religion or tradition.

     Remember the parable of the Sower. If you understand this you will know the key to all things. I so loved the world that I sowed my only Seed into the world and reaped billions of children just like him. The seed produces exactly after its kind. You are just like him and soon you will awaken to that truth. 

     He had no negative thoughts within him. He didn’t think destruction but always thought about salvation. He went about doing good healing all who were oppressed by religion. He did this by sowing health into their fleshly bodies and into their minds.

     All things work this way. Let your roots soak up my love. Be rooted and grounded in my love. Experience my love that passes all knowledge and understanding. I freely gave you all things to enjoy. So enjoy them all and rejoice that it was all a gift to you of my love. Rest in my love. Live in my love. Bask in my love. Freely you have received my love so give love freely. Sow love and you will reap love. My loved ones: What are you planting? Change your thoughts and change your harvest!


     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,
michael

Dust Off Your Dreams: Prepare For Eternal Spring

Second Corinthians Chapter Five

 New Living Translation

Since we believe that Christ died for all, we also believe that we have all died to our old life.He died for everyone so that those who receive his new life will no longer live for themselves. Instead, they will live for Christ, who died and was raised for them.

So we have stopped evaluating others from a human point of view. At one time we thought of Christ merely from a human point of view. How differently we know him now! This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun!

And all of this is a gift from God, who brought us back to himself through Christ. And God has given us this task of reconciling people to him. 

For GOD WAS IN CHRIST, reconciling the world to himself, no longer counting people’s sins against them.

 And he gave us this wonderful message of reconciliation. So we are Christ’s ambassadors; God is making his appeal through us. We speak for Christ when we plead, “Come back to God!” For God made Christ, who never sinned, to be the offering for our sin, so that we could be made right with God through Christ.

     While praying today Father spoke to me and said:
My son, write down these words and publish them to my loved ones: He said:

     Little children, it’s time to dust off your dreams. Many of you dreamed for a long time but have given up because you think they would never come to pass. I am restoring faith unto my children and what you have tried and failed to do in the past will flourish in this new season.

     So what is this season? It’s the season of restoring the true gospel to my children. The gospel is not about an angry God who will destroy all who disobey him. The gospel is about a loving Father who loves his children so much that he entered into death to bring them out.

     I was in my Son on that cross reconciling the world unto myself. Holy Spirit was there too. While Jesus was on that cross we were all present. He was not forsaken. I didn’t turn my back on him. This is another one of those misinterpreted scriptures that cause your hearts to doubt and cause your faith to be broken.

     How could I promise to never leave you and never forsake you if I forsook my own Son? When Jesus cried “Why have you forsaken me” he was not forsaken. He was quoting the Psalmist so that all those who heard him would realize that the Psalm he was quoting was being fulfilled right there and right then. He was never forsaken. Yes, he became sin in your place but did he stop being sin when in the tomb?

     Think about it: If I turned my back on him then how did he get raised from the dead? Have you not read what you call Second Corinthians Chapter Five verse nineteen where it says “I was in Christ reconciling the world unto myself not counting men’s sins against them? Reconsider all the lies you have learned and throw them out.

     In this new season my love is going to spring up from the midst of my people. So many of you are learning the truth about my love and as your confidence in my love grows your faith in me will become indestructible. Soon you will know that miracles and wonders and blessings are not my acts. They are part of my character. I am healing: I am blessing: I am might and power and blessing and glory and any other great thing you could ever imagine. The more you awaken to the truth that I don’t just love you but I AM love to you the more your faith will flourish.

     My loved ones, if you need healing. I AM healing! If you need prosperity I AM prosperity! If you need restoration then I AM Restoration. You shouldn’t separate what I do from who I am.

     I am releasing many revelations to my people that religion has blinded you to for years. These will change life as you know it. If you are willing to let go of the lies you will see my goodness fill the earth.

     Most in my church are trying to obtain what was in the early years of the church. We are way past there now. They were and are the foundation and you are part of the roof. That was the trunk and you are in the branches of the tree. There is power and glory awaiting you that the early apostles longed to see and you will see it if you are willing to learn.

     The same problem that stifled the dreams of some in the early church is doing the same to your dreams today. The early church struggled with the mixed message. You were told in scripture that the Judaizers tried to mix the pure grace message with legalism. It’s the same today but now there are many more forms of legalism depending on which denomination you are being ruled by a the time.

     My Son came and fulfilled the law and the prophets. He said not a jot or tittle would pass away until all was fulfilled and He fulfilled it and even said “It is finished!” Yet so many of my children today think it’s still in effect and they keep dying with Moses in the wilderness instead of following Jesus into the Promised Land.

     Ask any five fellow believers what they have been reading in the last week and three or four will be telling you they are reading the Old Testament. Those of you who are married try that with your spouse. Find your ex girlfriend’s love letters and read them in front of her. See how that works. 

     You are married to Christ; not to Moses. The Old Covenant was made with Israel and the Law was added later. The New Covenant is made with all mankind. Jesus represented all mankind on your behalf and he fulfilled this covenant not with the blood of bulls and goats but with his own blood. The New Covenant is written not on tables of stone, but on the heart of your innermost being. 

     Moses was faithful in his house but you are the house of Christ. The old covenant had its place. As you may have read in scripture I found fault with that covenant and replaced it. The scriptures are holy but if you try to marry yourself to the old you will never understand the new.

     This is what is killing your dreams and your faith. My beloved Paul told you that as long as Moses is read there is a veil over your eyes but the veil is taken away when you look at Christ. So you look at Moses a few days and feel condemned by the law and then you look into the eyes of my Son and feel free and you go back and forth and this is what it means to be double minded. You can’t live in both covenants.

     A double minded man doesn’t receive my promises. It’s not that they are not yours already. I have given you all things but as long as you are tossed back and forth you have no stability and your faith falters.

     My little ones; make up your mind. I tell you again; You have been baptized into Christ, not into Moses. You didn’t pass through the Red Sea; you passed through the red blood of my Son. You were crucified and laid to rest and you rose again in Christ on the third day. Don’t be like the Galatians who were foolish. They began in Christ and saw miracles and signs and wonders and then tried to go back to rule keeping only to see it all slip away.

     It’s time to know that you are forgiven and loved and blessed and it is not because of anything you did. It is all because of what my Son accomplished for you and as you. He came in flesh to represent all mankind just as Adam represented those who were born before Christ. We didn’t ask your permission when my Son was lifted up on that cross he drew you into himself. He took in all your failures, fears, sins and hopelessness and carried it all to the grave and left it.

     Sweet loved ones; do you not realize that when you try to establish your own righteousness by keeping rules and the law you are insulting the one who died for you? What you are saying is “I’m sorry Jesus, I know you died for me but that was not enough. I have to keep all these rules and give my money to the priest and I don’t think our Father really believes what you did was enough so I am going to add on all I can to please him.”

     My children, do you not know that I have feelings? I sent my Son to suffer and die and take away all your sins and you dishonor him by dismissing his eternal sacrifice and try to establish you own righteousness by keeping the rules of an ancient covenant that was already fulfilled? I know you do this in ignorance but it’s time to see the light and come out of the dark for now you know better.

     I tell you these things because you didn’t know that this is what is killing your faith and stopping your dreams. Turn off all those who preach condemnation and hatred. It’s Christ alone and not Christ plus anything else. I am love. I am not condemnation. All of you were baptized into the death of my Son. No one was left out. There is no condemnation in Christ. You are all one and when you condemn any other you condemn yourself. When you bless any other you bless yourself and the one who created you in my image.

     The law of the Spirit of Life in Christ Jesus has made you free from that law of sin and death. It’s that same old law that keeps people trapped in their sin habits. Paul told you in his letter to the Corinthians that the sting of death is sin and the strength of sin is the law. Those who live by the Law of Moses can never be free from the sting of death or the power of sin.

     That law could only convict you it couldn’t heal you. The law of the Spirit of life fills you with life. It delivers you from your sin habits and heals you from them so you never have to struggle again. The Law of Moses kept you alive to sin and dead unto righteousness. The law of the Spirit of life leaves you dead to sin and alive unto me.

     As you see the true gospel is a finished work and enter into the rest of that finished work your dreams will come alive again. The law of the Spirit of Life in my Son brings life to all things within you. As you learn to dwell in this truth every good dream in your heart and mind will come alive and start to bloom.

     My little ones, no more feasting on death: When you feed your mind that old dead law you partake of the death within it. Little by little it kills your hopes and dreams, but when you feast on Christ then you come alive. As you put aside the old and feast on the presence of my Son living within you then life swallows up all death until you are completely full of life inside and out. Your communion is with me and My Son and My Spirit. Not with the Old Law that killed everyone including my Son.

     Don’t forget that a little leaven will leaven the whole lump. Stay away from those who would ever tell you that it’s Christ plus anything. My Son is the end of the law for righteousness sake. Nothing needs to be added. So steer clear from any condemnation and live in freedom. Bathe yourself in the Spirit of Life and your lives will become full of Righteousness, Peace and Joy and you wont even remember how to sin.

     So please my beloved ones. Awaken to the true gospel of love and make plans for your old dreams to come to pass. Dust then off and soak them in the Spirit of life. Speak to them like they are living things because they are.

     Don’t just dream your dreams; speak to your dreams, encourage your dreams love your dreams. Treat them like a child and watch them grow. The awakening to the true gospel of love is going to be like rain on a desert. All the things that seemed dead for years are going to bloom again. It doesn’t matter what season it is. Dust off your dreams and Prepare for Eternal Spring!



     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,

Always Been Mine

Awaken As ONE

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

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.


Galatians Chapter Two

20. I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.


Colossians Chapter One

24. Now I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake, and in my flesh I am filling up what is lacking in Christ’s afflictions for the sake of his body, that is, the church, of which I became a minister according to the stewardship from God that was given to me for you, to make the word of God fully known, the mystery hidden for ages and generations but now revealed to his saints. To them God chose to make known how great among the Gentiles are the riches of the glory of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.



Ephesians Chapter Five

31. As the Scriptures say, “A man leaves his father and mother and is joined to his wife, and the two are united into one.”This is a great mystery, but it is an illustration of the way Christ and the church are one.




     As I woke up this morning Jesus spoke to me and asked me to write down these words and share them with you. He said:

     My beloved ones, my beloved one, for you are not separate because we are one and you are one with each other. The idea that you are this one and that one is only an illusion. I am “The Way, The Truth and The Life.” There is no other way, no other truth and no other life force that lights all men, women and children. All life is my life. All breath is my breath. It is my breath that was breathed into you all. It is my Spirit that you are all created in and with. The day of the illusion of division is coming to an end.

     You are members in particular of my body but you are not separate bodies. When you look at your hand do you say, there is a hand, or do you say there is my hand? It’s the same with us. I don’t see you as separate from me. You are individuals but you are individual parts of me that have never been separated from except in your own thoughts.

     It is time to put aside the jealousy that you see in the world. This shouldn’t be in my church. You have groups dividing themselves up into what you call churches and separating themselves and then competing with each other to see who can capture the most people. This ends soon. The worldly organization you call “church” now will not exist in the future.

     As you begin to know who you are you will also know me as I am and you will know each other as you truly are. You will see your neighbor as you do me. You will treat your neighbor as you would me if I were a guest in your house. You will no longer seek to divide yourselves but will know that you were already gathered into one. You will know no one as a flesh being but will see each other spirit to spirit.

     I told you in scripture that there is no male, female, bond or free. There is no Jew or Gentile. There is no holy and profane. All were made holy by the blood of my cross, they just aren’t awakened to the holiness that is in them and they continue to live in the darkness of their minds unaware of the true life and light that is within them.

     When you had your “born again” experience what really happened was the revelation that I am in you. I wasn’t on the outside waiting on you to invite me in. I was on the inside waiting for you to invite me in. I was hiding in your innermost closet all the time waiting until you discovered me.

     All spirits are born of spirit. At your physical conception the spirit that was knit together with your earthly body came from me. You weren’t born a sinner and headed to hell. That was a misunderstanding of scripture. You were only lost in your own confusion and the darkness of your mind and your world so I came into that darkness to lead you out of it.

     In your hearts and minds you were a little lost lamb but you were my little lost lamb so I came and got you. I was not willing that you would live your lives without my love. You have always been and will always be mine. You can deny it but it is still true.

     I hear you say that man has a free will but do I not have a free will also? Is my will to save you not more powerful than your will to be lost? Is there none so lost that I can’t save? Is there any darkness that I can’t penetrate? Did not my beloved David say that if he made his bed in hell I would be there with him? 

     There are only three things that eternally remain: Faith, Hope and Love. Hell, destruction anger, wickedness are not on the list. End of story. Love never fails and my love will not be quenched until it overcomes all things negative.

     All of these religious lies you have been taught will fall away if you look into my perfect love for you. Once you realize that we are one you will know that as I am so are you. You just haven’t awakened to our perfect oneness yet. 

     You will soon be wide awake to this and will know that just as my Father sent me into the world I also sent you. My Father came with me into the world and my Father, Holy Spirit and I came into the world with you. You have never been alone and you will never be alone.

     My loved one, soon all these fears will be behind you. My church will awaken in the joy of being one with me and one with each other. In short order the earth will be put in order and heaven will be established on earth. Imagine multiplying me and the power of Holy Spirit billions of times working through billions of people. Now know that this is truth. The fullness of the Almighty lives in me and we live in you and all this powerful glory is hidden in earthen vessels called “your bodies.”

     I was planted as a seed into the earth and into the hearts of all men. As I spring up eternal then all things will change. You are not looking for glory from above but for the glory that arises within. 

     As you understand that we are one and you teach your neighbor the same, and love him as you love yourself and treat him as the royal child of my Father that he is, then the world will know that you truly love each other. They will not be able to resist my love for the love within you is calling unto the seed already planted within them and calling for their awakening also.

     My loved ones put away the fear and dread. What you see on your news is a smoke screen. I own the earth and all it contains. Pay no attention to those who tell you that the world is coming to a violent end. If the world was going to be destroyed anyway do you think my Father would have sent me to suffer?

     Even with the human mind’s reasoning the idea of a destroyed world makes no sense. Yes the world is destined for fire. It is the fire of my Father’s passion for his children. It will burn like an oven until everything that can harm you is destroyed. The fire coming is refining and purifying and once it’s finished its work all people and things will shine like the glory of heaven.

     So I am calling you today my children; awaken to love, awaken to the truth that there is no separation between us. Arise and shine, for the light you are waiting for is within you. Awaken to the truth that we are not two but one.

     Never see yourself as separate from me. When you look in the mirror look for my face in yours and see me in you. Also see me in your brother, your neighbor, and even your enemy. I am The Light that lights EVERY man that comes into the world. I reconciled the world to my Father with my own blood. I poured out my Spirit on all flesh. I left my Father and Mother and cleaved unto my bride. What my Father already joined together let no man put asunder. Awaken as ONE!



     This was 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,
michael
