Matthew Chapter Six
5. “And when you pray, you must not be like the hypocrites. For they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and at the street corners, that they may be seen by others. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward.
But when you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you.
“And when you pray, do not heap up empty phrases as the Gentiles do, for they think that they will be heard for their many words. Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him.
Pray then like this:
“Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name.
Your kingdom come,
your will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread,
and forgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
For yours is the kingdom, the power and the glory forever. Amen.
John Chapter Twenty
11. Mary was standing outside the tomb crying, and as she wept, she stooped and looked in. She saw two white-robed angels, one sitting at the head and the other at the foot of the place where the body of Jesus had been lying. “Dear woman, why are you crying?” the angels asked her.
“Because they have taken away my Lord,” she replied, “and I don’t know where they have put him.”
She turned to leave and saw someone standing there. It was Jesus, but she didn’t recognize him. “Dear woman, why are you crying?” Jesus asked her. “Who are you looking for?”
She thought he was the gardener. “Sir,” she said, “if you have taken him away, tell me where you have put him, and I will go and get him.”
“Mary!” Jesus said.
She turned to him and cried out, “Rabboni!” (which is Hebrew for “Teacher”).
“Don’t cling to me,” Jesus said, “for I haven’t yet ascended to the Father. But go find my brothers and tell them, ‘I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.”
Galatians Chapter Four
6. Because you are sons, God has sent the Spirit of His Son into our hearts, crying out, “Abba! Father!” Therefore you are no longer a slave, but a son; and if a son, then an heir through God.
Ephesians Chapter Four
4. There is one body and one Spirit—just as you were called to the one hope that belongs to your call— one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all.
Recently I’ve seen so many people teaching others to pray to the universe or the power or source or a dozen other things. They use those words to not offend anyone by saying God or Father or Jesus or Holy Spirit, and it pains my heart because when I hear these things I realize that they don’t know him for who He is. So I prayed about it and asked him to help me help others to know him as he really is. As I was praying He asked me to listen and write and publish his words to all of his children; even the ones who don’t yet know him.
Here are his words He said:

So I prayed about it and asked him to help me help others to know him as he really is. As I was praying He asked me to listen and write and publish his words to all of his children; even the ones who don’t yet know him.
Here are his words He said:
My loved ones, I am not the universe although I created it and it is made of me because when I created the heavens and the earth there was only me so all things that are seen and unseen are made of things that were in me. I took things inside myself and spoke them into what you call the physical reality.
Some call me the force or the Spirit or by some other name. The power that holds all things together comes from me but that power is not me. Just as if you build something, the something you build has your imagination in it but it is not you. It exists because you made it, but it is not you.
Suppose someone wrote a book about you. Is that book you? No, it may be some things about your personality and your behavior but it is not you.
My loved ones you are not a created being. You weren’t built you were born. Your bodies appear physical but your spirits are born of me. You were not created, but were birthed from my Spirit and are part of the family that is called God. This family consists of a Father, a Spirit, a firstborn Son and billions of other children who are just as he is.
Remember I made man in my image. Male and female and as it is written that which is born of Spirit is Spirit. All beings reproduce after their kind. I can only produce offspring who are Gods as I am God.
Don’t forget I breathed life into the first Adam and he became a living soul. The last Adam is my beloved Son and he is not a living soul but a life giving spirit. You are born of Spirit and are not of the first Adam but you are of the last. You were not born of the will of the flesh but were born of my Spirit. When my Son taught the people he taught people who were born of the first Adam and told them they must be born again which means born from above. Even before the resurrection when the New Covenant began He told them to call me Father. Since Holy Spirit was poured out on all flesh then all who come into the world are of the Spirit. Do you remember that He was not born of natural birth but was conceived by Holy Spirit?
As it is written "Jesus is the light that lights every man who comes into the world. He changed everything! That is why it is written that when I spoke of him I said; 'Your throne oh God is established forever and ever!"
My loved ones, I say these things so you will rest in who you are. You are offspring and heirs of all that I am and all that I have. As long as you deny your divinity you will never experience all that you are. I want you to know who you are so we can fellowship in Spirit and in truth. My Son told you that it is not this mountain or that mountain where you should worship but I seek those who worship me in Spirit and that Spirit is within you. You are the temple and that is where we worship each other.

My Son told you that it is not this mountain or that mountain where you should worship but I seek those who worship me in Spirit and that Spirit is within you. You are the temple and that is where we worship each other.
False religion teaches you to worship as a slave to his master. I want those who worship me face to face, those who know they are the children of God but choose to fellowship in love and honor and love and not in groveling shame. To worship in Spirit and in Truth means that you know who you are and you choose to love me as a loving father and not as a slave who is in fear of torment. As it is written “he who is fearful is not made perfect in love for love casts out all fear.” As I told you before that worship is not a lower being praising a higher being but a sharing of intimacy above anything you have ever known. You sing of your love to me and I sing my love songs over you with great joy. It’s above anything you have ever known even in marriage.
What you call worship is singing and playing music but to me worship is all of those and more. Sometimes worship is me holding you in my arms and adoring you without saying a word. Sometimes I think of you and our eternity together and I think about all the wonderful things I have in store for you and I break into joyful laughter and excitement. This is worship.
My lovely ones; you were born because of love and you have always and will always be adorable to me. No matter your mistakes or what you perceive as failures your value in my heart and in my eyes never changes.
My beloved Son told you to pray in secret to your Father in secret. Not to a faraway God or a universe or some other pretend deity. There is only One: and I AM He. You are one of me and are one with me. We are one Spirit. I dwell in you so the secret place you pray in is inside of you. You don’t have to go to some special place or to some building made of stones for as it is written “you are living stones.” You are my temple where I dwell and you don’t have to look to anyone or anything outside of your own self. If you want to find the holy place, then look inside.
My dearest ones: All things work together for your good. So yes, the universe will produce things for you just as a tree will bear fruit for you to eat. But the universe is not God. The God who always was and always will be is your loving, adoring Father who knows all you need before you could ask.
Remember what was written about my firstborn Son, “all things were made by him and for him.” You are one with him so the same is true for you. All things were created for your benefit but you don’t have to ask some impersonal, created thing for anything. As my beloved one told you: “Whatever you ask Father in my name will be given you.” In my name means that you understand you are not asking some faraway being or some created thing like the universe but you are asking your loving Father while knowing you are a beloved child.
I have already given you all things that pertain to life and godliness so I don’t have to create anything for you. My works are finished. I looked at your life before you arrived and looked at every possible choice you could ever make and I created all things you could ever need no matter which road you take. This is why you were told to make your requests with thanksgiving. You are not asking me to give you anything that doesn’t already belong to you. As the one whom you call the prodigal son found out: All that I have is already yours. You give thanks for what you need knowing it was already prepared for you and all you need is for it to be delivered. So why ask something you call the universe that you can’t even comprehend when you can ask your loving Father who adores you and has been waiting for you to come to the secret place and lay hold of what I’ve already given you?
Remember my loved ones, when you hear someone telling you to pray to a universe or source or anything else but Father then you know they don’t know me yet. Come to the secret place within you and pray for them to be awakened as the lovely children they are and to no longer live in confusion.
My adorable ones: Look to none other: I AM Your Father!
These are the words He gave me to share with you today.
I hope you are encouraged by these words.
Until next time,
Grow Rich in His Grace,
I love you all,
Michael
