John Chapter Three

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him.


First John Chapter Three

1.See what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God; and so we are.


First John Chapter Four

18. 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. We love because he first loved us.


John Chapter Sixteen

33. Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart, because I have overcome the world.”


Romans Chapter Eight

Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword? As it is written,

“For your sake we are being killed all the daylong;
we are regarded as sheep to be slaughtered.”

No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.


Hebrews Chapter Twelve

Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God.





    Lately almost everyone I know, including myself, has been going through tough times. A few people have asked me why we suffer if God loves us so much. So instead of trying to explain in my own words I asked him in prayer if He would give me words of encouragement that I could share with all of you. So while praying today He began to speak and He reminded me of the scriptures above and he began to explain some things to me so I began writing it down so that I could share it with you all. Here are his words, He said:



    My beloved ones: You are dearly loved and I know you have troubles and suffer pain and have many issues in your lives. This doesn’t mean you aren’t loved. It means you are living in a world that is still in the reconciliation process. One day earth will be just as it is in heaven. I reconciled the world unto myself while in my Son on the cross. But the world hasn’t completely accepted the reconciliation. One day soon it will be overtaken by the growing Kingdom and all will be heavenly.



    Never, under any circumstances think that what happens to you is a reflection of my love for you. Those of you with children understand this. You love them with all your heart and it hurts to see bad things happen to them but in no way do the bad things come because your love for them wanes.



    The main thing to remember during these times is not to get down and never give up. It’s never over. Just ask Lazarus. Four days in the grave and he came out just fine. It’s necessary to keep your eyes looking to me and not get hypnotized by the problems. Look past them just as my Son looked past the cross for the joy that was on the other side.


    Always remember that all things work together for your good because you love me and I love you and you are called according to my great eternal plan. No matter what you go through, I will turn it into your benefit.


    My loved ones; you are still learning so don’t get down on yourselves thinking that you are suffering because you are being disciplined for something you did wrong. Remember my Son told the disciples that I prune every branch that doesn’t bear fruit. Remember also that He told them that they were clean, or pruned, by the words He spoke to them. I will never send sickness or disease or anything like that to teach you anything. I teach you by writing my love laws on your heart and own your mind. I teach you by speaking love words into your heart calling you up higher to where you truly are.


    Those who do unlawful things get punished but not by me. For example if you rob a bank and the guard shoots you it’s not me telling him to shoot you. Getting shot while robbing a bank is one of the consequences of robbing a bank. If you die from a drug overdose I didn’t kill you, the drugs did. The wages of sin is death, but most never read the rest of that scripture that says “but the gift of God is eternal life.” Abundant, eternal life is always my plan for you.


    While in the world you will have problems because of the ignorance that is in the hearts of people. Remember that my son said to you “For from the heart come evil thoughts, murder, adultery, all sexual immorality, theft, lying, and slander."


    Our beloved Paul also told you in his letter to the Galatians when he said: “Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, Envying, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.”


    So as you can see the darkness and trouble you see in the world is because people haven’t accepted the truth of my Son’s completed work and their hearts are filled with ignorance and evil and so the world being under man’s control takes on the personality of its master. As it is written: “The heavens are the LORD’S but the earth He has given unto the hands of the sons of men.”


    So my loved ones please understand that as the kingdom grows bigger and bigger then the earth will be freed from the darkness and all the danger that exists in it. All darkness will be overcome by light until all is light. The best way to change the world is to advance the kingdom which is within you. Learn who you are and everything around you will change and bring everyone around you up to your level of consciousness. In this world the only thing you need to change is your own understanding of who you are and how much you are loved!


    So be of good cheer for I will never leave you or forsake you. I am your constant help in times of trouble. I am taking you up to a higher consciousness so that you will no longer be affected by the world but you will be the light that the world needs to change.


    Don’t forget that my Son told you that no one lights a candle and puts it under a bushel. Neither do you light a candle and put it in the open sun. Candles are needed in dark places and you are the city set on a hill. You are the light in the darkness and I need you to keep shining until there is no darkness in the heart of any person. If the world around you looks dark then look inside for the light within you is me.


    Once again my beloved ones, you are loved dearly and the proof of my love is not because you have good days but the cross is the proof of my love for you. When you feel unloved take a long look at the cross and understand the value that you are because I counted the cost and didn’t hesitate to pay the ultimate price for you because you are loved.


    Remember your first love. For each of you there was a time when you would lay down your lives in joy just for the joy of your salvation. There was a time that my love for you and your love for me was all you desired. You can have those days again if you choose.


    My beloved children; You will have hard days and you will have good days but every day is a love day! You were chosen before I made the world and I have never changed my mind! You are so loved! Forget the hardship by remembering you are loved! 

    Remember what our beloved Paul told you in his letter to the Thessalonians: In everything give thanks for this is the will of God concerning you. That doesn’t mean that your troubles are my will. It means giving thanks is my will because giving thanks will lift you up above your problems and will cause you to overcome them.


    Once again my beloved ones: In this world you will have troubles but you will never face them alone and you will always have my constant, abiding, burning love for you available if you will only take time to consider it. Please be patient for the greatest days of history are beginning. All will know me from the least to the greatest. The feeblest among you will be like David. I haven’t forgotten even one of the promises I made to you or to the world. So look past the problems and set your eyes on the joy on the other side. You may have troubles at the moment but joy is coming!



    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

Come and Eat!

Psalm 23

The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.

He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.

He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever.



As I was praying today I felt something move deep inside my heart so I closed my eyes and focused within my own spirit and I heard Father say : Come and eat!


I looked up and I was once again taken into a vision I had many years ago. The vision was the same as before. I appeared in front of a banquet table that was miles long and very wide. I stood before the table with a little baby spoon and a little tiny baby plate that looked like a toy.


Just as before I heard these words: Why did you come with those tiny utensils and that tiny plate? I replied; I’m sorry my Lord, I guess I forgot. He laughed and once again handed me a spoon the size of a shovel and a fork big as a hayfork. He said, you’ve been eating at the pig trough of the world too long and need to come here to feed your spirit.


So as I stood there looking at the food, I heard beautiful music and laughter and joy was overflowing and I remembered well being here before and was not ashamed but kind of wondering why I didn’t come here every day to eat.


Sometimes in life we let things get in the way. I have been busy working on many music projects and other chores. I also have many people who I pray for daily and I try to encourage every day who share their problems with me and sometimes I forget that I’m supposed to unload those burdens on Jesus and should only bear them long enough to bring them to him.

Lately I got a little bogged down in so many things and helping so many people that I forgot to feed myself what I need to stay strong. Sometimes, my inner Martha puts Mary in a headlock and drags her away to make grilled cheese sandwiches instead of sitting at the Shepherds feet feeding on real food. I even became physically ill for a couple of weeks and couldn’t seem to shake it until I took a few days and just rested. I shouldn’t have gone too long without the fellowship meal that we all have prepared for us. Father reminded me that even Jesus had to go away alone to get spiritual nourishment.


So I listened to the music and fixed my plate and walked a little ways from the table and sat under a beautiful tree and listened to the heavenly music. I sat for awhile and soaked in the joy and the delight. I took a big bite of the bread and drank from a a light blue cup. The water in the cup was so sweet like wine but was crystal clear. While reclining under the tree some birds landed in the tree and began to sing in tune with the music that was playing. I got so relaxed that I fell asleep under the tree and sometime later I woke up back in my van by the lake where I was praying.


So I spoke to Father and told him that I am so sorry for missing out on his hospitality and asked him to please remind me every day to take time to come eat and fellowship with him. As I did he spoke to me and asked me to listen and write and share his words with all of you. Here are his words, He said:



My lovely ones; are you tired? Is your soul weary and worn? Does every day seem the same and has life become more of a burden than a blessing? I am your answer.


Here is the problem, your mind and body feed on whatever you set your mind to. If you constantly are bombarded with negative thoughts and problems then those things will choke your life out and can eventually kill your physical body if you let them.


Just as David wrote: If you are surrounded by enemies such as problems or negative thoughts or fears or any other problem in life the only way around it is over it. You must come to the table I set for you. Forget your enemies and come eat. You must come lay down in the green pastures and sit beside the still waters. You must follow your shepherd if you want peace. So many of my people have let social media become their shepherd and they never find peace. You must take time to shut everything down even if it seems what you are doing with your time is good, it still gets in the way of our fellowship.


My loved ones; I made you in my image and likeness. Your imagination is my imagination. If you close your eyes and imagine this place of rest it will become more real to you than your surroundings. Even if you can’t see it at first keep imagining it until the eye of your imagination becomes as clear as the eyes of your spirit. As it is written: You are seated with me in heavenly places. Even if you can't see it. It is still the truth.


If you will sanctify your imagination then your eyes will be clear and you will see heaven as it really is: Right inside you. Cast down every imagination that exalts itself fighting for your attention and close the door and ask me to show you the secret place.


You were instructed in scripture to only think about things that are lovely and pure, so anything else needs to be sent away. When you have a negative thought pretend it is a small cloud and blow it away with your breath and soon the skies of your mind will be filled with peaceful clouds full of joy and laughter. Never forget that all things that exist began in imagination. So when someone says it’s just your imagination remind them that in my imagination was the beginning of all things.


So my beautiful ones; take time to come to my table. Leave your cares behind and find a quiet place and relax. Will you at least give me a much time as you give your social media devices? Do you really think you will gain anything from outside that my Spirit inside you doesn’t already know?


Find a place that makes you happy. Some can lock out the world in a crowd of people. Some need a lake or a quiet place. Some need a drive through the country or a fishing boat, and some need to lock themselves in quiet room, so do whatever makes you happy. Find a place that brings you peace and joy.


In my presences is fullness of joy just as it was written in the scriptures. I am always everywhere present. I live in you but sometimes you don’t. You live everywhere but inside. So come inside. Rest in my presence and let me feed you and give you joy. The table is set. Please come eat!



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

Blessed By Rest

Hebrews Chapters Three and Four

Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says,

“Today, if you hear his voice,
do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion,
on the day of testing in the wilderness,
where your fathers put me to the test
and saw my works for forty years.
Therefore I was provoked with that generation,
and said, ‘They always go astray in their heart;
they have not known my ways.’
As I swore in my wrath,
‘They shall not enter my rest.’”

Take care, brothers, lest there be in any of you an evil, unbelieving heart, leading you to fall away from the living God. But exhort one another every day, as long as it is called “today,” that none of you may be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin. For we have come to share in Christ, if indeed we hold our original confidence firm to the end. As it is said,

“Today, if you hear his voice,
do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.”

For who were those who heard and yet rebelled? Was it not all those who left Egypt led by Moses? And with whom was he provoked for forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness? And to whom did he swear that they would not enter his rest, but to those who were disobedient? So we see that they were unable to enter because of unbelief.

Therefore, while the promise of entering his rest still stands, let us fear lest any of you should seem to have failed to reach it. For good news came to us just as to them, but the message they heard did not benefit them, because they were not united by faith with those who listened. For we who have believed enter that rest, as he has said,

“As I swore in my wrath,
‘They shall not enter my rest,’”

Although his works were finished from the foundation of the world. For he has somewhere spoken of the seventh day in this way: “And God rested on the seventh day from all his works.” And again in this passage he said,

“They shall not enter my rest.”

Since therefore it remains for some to enter it, and those who formerly received the good news failed to enter because of disobedience, again he appoints a certain day, “Today,” saying through David so long afterward, in the words already quoted,

“Today, if you hear his voice,
do not harden your hearts.”

For if Joshua had given them rest, God would not have spoken of another day later on. So then, there remains a Sabbath rest for the people of God, for whoever has entered God’s rest has also rested from his works as God did from his.

Let us therefore strive to enter that rest, so that no one may fall by the same sort of disobedience. For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart. And no creature is hidden from his sight, but all are naked and exposed to the eyes of him to whom we must give account.



Isaiah Chapter Twenty Six

4. Trust in the Lord forever, for the Lord God is an everlasting rock.


Proverbs Chapter Three

5. Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
and do not lean on your own understanding.
In all your ways acknowledge him,
and he will make straight your paths.


Second Peter Chapter One

3. By his divine power, God has given us everything we need for living a godly life. We have received all of this by coming to know him, the one who called us to himself by means of his marvelous glory and excellence. And because of his glory and excellence, he has given us great and precious promises. These are the promises that enable you to share his divine nature and escape the world’s corruption caused by human desires.


First Timothy Chapter Six Amplified Bible

As for the rich in this present world, instruct them not to be conceited and arrogant, nor to set their hope on the uncertainty of riches, but on God, who richly and ceaselessly provides us with everything for our enjoyment.



A few days ago as I was praying Father brought to my heart the letter to the Hebrews and I read it, and as I did I heard Father’s voice and he asked me to listen and write and publish his words for all to hear. Here are his words He said:



My son, my children are asking and begging and crying and fearful when they should be in joyful rest without a care at all. Speak to them and tell them to rest in me and in my promises and all will be restored unto them. Give them these words:


My beautiful ones; I know of your struggles and your fears and all of your prayers mixed with tears do touch my heart but there is only one way into all that you want and that way is through trust and rest.


As you were instructed by our beloved Paul; you were chosen in Christ before we made the world. I loved you long before I knit your spirit together with the body in your mother’s womb. Do you remember I spoke through my prophet and said I had plans for you? Plans to prosper you and bless you? I have already given you all things. All of these things only come to you as you rest.


The ones who left Egypt refused to enter into my rest. I delivered them and led them out with signs and wonders and I fed them manna from heaven and gave them water. I provided all they could ever need on the way to the land that was flowing with milk and honey. A land where I had prepared vineyards they didn’t plant and houses they didn’t build. I had it all ready for their arrival but they would not enter in because of unbelief and fear. So I passionately swore that no one could enter unless they entered by faith and rest.


My loved ones; it is the same today. You could freely surrender your lives and cast yourselves headlong into my loving grace where all is finished and all is well but so called religion has fooled you into thinking you must do something to be blessed. They tell you that you need to beg and fast and work harder and struggle and maybe when you’ve done enough you will prosper. They have you begging and crying and confessing and naming and claiming and jumping through hoops to try to earn something that was already given unto you.


My loved ones there is a better way and that way is Christ. He is your Sabbath rest. All that is needed is your belief in the finished works and you can enter into a place in your lives where milk and honey and all things you could ever desire will flow to you effortlessly but you must surrender to find it.


My Son finished all that was necessary for you to inherit everything I own and that means everything. All you could ever need or want was finished and waiting in the realm of the Spirit for you to enter into rest and lay hold of it. You don’t have to chase it, you just have to use the faith I gave you to enter into the rest I gave you.


Unbelief says “I need this and that while faith says I already have been given all things so I’ll just give thanks and all I desire will come to me.”I even gave you the desires of your heart so that you would desire the things I have freely given you. If you truly believe that I have given you all things then what are you begging for?


As it is written: “By faith we access this grace wherein we stand. It is also written that I gave unto all men the measure of faith.” Those who believe enter into rest, and those in unbelief beg and cry and wonder why I don’t answer their prayers.


Here is where so called religion has led you astray. They don’t teach you the timeline of the scriptures. When my Son came in his earthly body he came born under the Old Covenant. He was born under the law. The New Covenant was not established unto He rose again and entered into the Holy Place with his own blood. His blood took away the sins of all those who were born under the law which ended the Old Covenant. His blood guaranteed the New Covenant before anyone even entered it. He fulfilled the Old and established the New at the same time.


The things He taught on prayer were taught to people under the Old Covenant, and even then He told them to just believe they already have what they desire and it would be done.


After the resurrection there was a time when the Old Covenant temple was still standing. We gave the people a generation to come from the Old into the New. This why it is written in Hebrews that the way into the Holiest of all was not available as long as the earthly tabernacle was standing. It’s the same reason in the Revelation that the souls of those who were slain were under the altar in the temple. They couldn’t enter into their final home as long as the temple was standing. It’s the same reason in Hebrews it is written that the old was waxing old and about to vanish and be replaced with the new.


I say these things so you will know that all that was written by the apostles after the resurrection was during this time when both the Old and the New were both available. When The Temple was destroyed and Jerusalem was burned the Old Covenant was completely fulfilled. This is what the prophets spoke about when they talked about the end of the age. Those who have kept you in bondage changed the words to read “the end of the world.” It was never speaking of the end of the physical world but was speaking of the end of the Old Testament Age. Do you not remember the saying “I make all things new?” The old things have passed away and all things are new and all are of God?


If you remember I spoke of the New Covenant that it would not be written on tablets of stone but is written in your heart and in your mind. The Old Covenant had laws about what you must do to be blessed and well. The New Covenant laws are about what was already done on your behalf so that you can freely receive all that was given to you. This is why the so called Judaizers came behind Paul teaching people that they must keep the Law of Moses to be saved. They were corrupting the truth of my grace. False religion does the same today. They put the Old mixed with the New. They try to mix the blood of bulls and goats with the blood of my Son. They are in severe error. This is why you should consider what was written in the letter to the Hebrews where it says:


First, Christ said, “You did not want animal sacrifices or sin offerings or burnt offerings or other offerings for sin, nor were you pleased with them” (though they are required by the law of Moses). Then he said, “Look, I have come to do your will.” He cancels the first covenant in order to put the second into effect. For God’s will was for us to be made holy by the sacrifice of the body of Jesus Christ, once for all time.


Under the old covenant, the priest stands and ministers before the altar day after day, offering the same sacrifices again and again, which can never take away sins. But our High Priest offered himself to God as a single sacrifice for sins, good for all time. Then he sat down in the place of honor at God’s right hand. There he waits until his enemies are humbled and made a footstool under his feet. For by that one offering he forever made perfect those who are being made holy.


And the Holy Spirit also testifies that this is so. For he says,

“This is the new covenant I will make with my people on that day, says the LORD:

I will put my laws in their hearts, and I will write them on their minds.” Then he says,

“I will never again remember their sins and lawless deeds.”

And when sins have been forgiven, there is no need to offer any more sacrifices.



So all these things I have told you so that you would have faith in what my firstborn Son completed for you and so that no one could deceive you again into thinking that you must do anything other than believe in the finished works and enter into the rest that was provided for you.


So finally my loved ones: No more begging and pleading. All you must do to receive all that was provided for you is to rest and trust. Your requests are not made by asking but by giving thanks. Once you truly believe in your heart that you lack nothing then all things will flow into your life to freely enjoy.


As long as you believe you must do anything to earn it then you will drive away all that you seek. Asking for anything means that you don’t believe it was already given. These are the things I have written on your heart if you will only read the book I’m writing there.


Remember that the scriptures that say “seek and you will find, ask and you will receive were spoken to those who were under the Old Covenant. You have already received all things; and as you believe and enter into this truth and rest then all things will appear unto you with no effort on your part. So my loved ones; leave behind the lack and enter into the blessed rest. Be blessed by rest!



These are the words He gave me to share with you.
I hope you are encouraged by these words,
Until next time,
Grow Rich in His Grace,
I love you all,
Michael

Ephesians Chapter Two

19. So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God, built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the cornerstone, in whom the whole structure, being joined together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord. In him you also are being built together into a dwelling place for God by the Spirit.

    As I was praying for each of you today Father spoke to me and asked me to listen and write and publish his words for all to hear. Here are his words, He said:



    My beloved ones I know of your struggles and your troubles and your problems that seem to be more than you can bear. But I also know that all the power and might of my Spirit dwells within you to awaken you to the truth and that truth will make you free from all things that hinder you. Christ is your truth and your foundation and as long as you rest in him and on him then you will overcome the lies and live in the glorious freedom of the truth.


    Many are awakening to the truth of your divinity but it seems to be like waking up from a dream into a dream. You are not sure what is real because most of all you have ever been taught is a lie.


    My loved ones here is the absolute truth: As it is written, you were chosen in the beloved before I made the world. You have always been loved and will always be loved and within you is all the truth you will ever need. Just remember: Truth is a Person!


    The problem for so many is they are beginning to understand that you are all one with me and there is no separation, but because this truth isn’t being built upon the foundation of Christ, with him being the cornerstone, many are becoming confused. Yes you are one with me. You are one with God but you are not God without Christ. He is above all and through all and by him all things were made. All things visible and invisible were made by him and he holds all these things together. So many teachers today are teaching about something called the universe or the force or the source but when they leave my beloved Son out they go astray. As it is written: “All the fullness of God dwells bodily in Christ.”


    As our beloved Paul explained, you are dead and your lives are hidden with Christ in me. It’s no longer you who live but it is me living in you. So many get confused and start believing that this thing you call ego is God and that is not the case.


    I so loved the world that I sent my beloved Son. This is the truth of the gospel and any message that doesn’t begin and end with this truth is not the true gospel.


    So many have become confused because they see that there are many layers to scripture as it is all written in parables and they begin to think that just because it is symbolic that it is not also true history. They believe that my Son didn’t really come in a body to save the world. They believe he is just a story in a parable.


    This is nothing new and this is why our beloved John told you that the word became flesh and dwelled among them and they handled him with their own hands. It is also why he wrote that anyone who claims that Christ did not come in the flesh is an antichrist. It is also why Thomas touched his wounds. It is also why our beloved Paul told you that Christ appeared to hundreds after his resurrection. Any gospel that doesn’t include the truth that my Son came in flesh is not the truth. It may contain parts of truth but the true gospel begins and ends with Christ.


    So how does this help with your struggles? It helps because you are not on your own trying to uncover the truth but you have the One who is truth living in you. Christ in you is the hope of glory and there is no glory without him. If you don’t know whose image you are being conformed to then how will you know when you are fully transformed?


    My dear children; Christ is your life. He is your health, he is your wealth, he is your joy and all these things come to life in the physical realm by fellowship with the one inside you. If you awaken to health and wealth and all that you could ever want and still don’t have fellowship you will just be a healthy, wealthy and miserable person.


    My lovely ones; you don’t have to strain and struggle and try to grasp this great truth of our oneness. All you must do is fellowship with the One within and you will learn all you need to know. As our beloved Paul explained, there is one Lord, one faith and one baptism and one Father of all and above all and through all and in you all. 

    You were born because my love needed someone to love and that is you. This is why those who don’t have children are called barren. Without someone to give your whole being to in love it seems like a barren wilderness. This is why you crave love and fellowship and why people naturally long to be with other people.


    This is from me because I made you to love you forever and ever and to show you that love and the great blessings I have to shower you with I had to create something called eternity. Yes all these things exist in the now because “I Am” but it’s better to enjoy them a few at a time so I created time for you to experience unlimited encounters with my love.


    We are one but not only one. We are all one Spirit but different personalities and expressions of the One Spirit. Our beloved John told you that he saw thousands times ten thousands standing before the throne. You are my children and share my inheritance and my last name but each of you is a unique personality. As it is written “a man will leave his father and mother and cleave unto his wife but I speak of Christ and the church.”


    You are part of the body of Christ and each of you is different part of the same whole. There is One God and that God is a family and you are a part of the family. You are not divided but neither are you erased. This is a mystery. You are dead and your life is hidden in me and I am hidden in you. So we are hidden in you and you are hidden in us as we hide in you. As it is written “you were crucified with Christ and you rose when he rose.” You are an eternal spirit that is one with me and all make up the whole but those who tell you that you are complete without Christ are in error.


    You were chosen in Him before we made the world. In me you live and move and have your being. It is written in scripture that “You are Gods and all of you are children of the Most High.” Yes you are Gods but you are not Gods without me and especially not without Christ who is the head of the church and in charge of all things because they were made by him and for him.


    There is more to awaken to and you will learn things about yourself and about me that will shake off the lies you have learned. You are my temple and I dwell with you and in you. All you need is within because that is where I am. You don’t have to worry and try to learn some impossible thing to understand hidden truth. You don’t have to work to create the things you want to experience in your life. All you have to do is fall in love with the one within you and talk to me and listen to my love words within your heart and you will come to know my love for you that is impossible to fully understand and that love will overflow from within and turn everything it touches into heaven on earth.


    So my loved ones; look inside and talk to me. Trade me the lies of sickness and poverty. I will give you the truth of health and wealth and overflowing joy. Just remember that you are built upon an indestructible foundation and Christ is the cornerstone that ensures the foundation is secure. Any message or so called gospel that doesn’t include Christ is not the truth. Live in the truth for the truth lives in you. My children love each other as I love you and forgive and be patient with each other. Rest on your foundation and be joyful!



    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

Arise My Shining Ones

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

michael's podcast



    As I was praying today, I heard Father’s voice speaking within my heart and I rejoiced to hear him and he delightfully said to me: “My Son listen and write and publish the great news to all who will listen. Tell them their days of darkness and wandering are coming to an end. Tell them to awaken and shout for joy for you are entering a day that I have longed for since the beginning. This is a time like you have never known. Awaken my shining ones and rise and shine and be glad and know that all is well.”



    As I was rejoicing I looked inside my heart and I saw a river overflowing its banks and a flood was beginning. I wondered what was happening and so I asked him and he said:

    “My son, all that you have ever wanted or desired has always been within you. You have never lacked for anything except the knowledge of how to bring out what is already yours. All you ever need is to let joy open the gates and let what is within you be as real outside as it is inside. Remember that it is written that with joy you shall draw water from the well of salvation. Joy is what opens the gates.


    So listen and write these words to my loved ones. Tell them these words: My children it is time to let joy arise and to focus only on the things that bring you great joy and to let go of the old ways of fear and doubt. I know for years things have been dark and dreary but the light has come and has broken forth from within you. You are the light as I am the light but you have kept the lamp hidden under bushels of worry and sadness and regret and it is time to let joy remove all those things and let the light and the living water flood out of you and change all that is around you.


    I told you that I would send forth springs from the deserts and that is what is happening. Your lives have been like a barren desert struggling to bring forth fruit because the water didn’t flow. But now the water is flowing and the light is shining and all the dreams you ever dreamed that lay dormant in the ground will begin to spring up and you will harvest daily what you used to spend years waiting upon.


    The light is shining so brightly that those who have kept the world in darkness are terrified and are hiding themselves in their mansions made of rock and dirt and are begging for the light to stop shining but it will only get brighter.


    Soon all heaven will break loose into the earth. The things you see in the natural or physical realm are only the shadow of the things taking place in the spiritual realm. In the spirit the angels are dancing and rejoicing because they know the people they watch over and protect are about to walk into the realm of great glory that they behold always.


    The blinders that were covering your eyes are being removed. You are no longer willing to blindly follow those who give you so called religion and you are only willing to accept the true gospel of love and in that is your freedom. No more bondage to dead ceremony and graveyard traditions. No more believing that you need someone else to lead you because you know that you are one with the Almighty and that I live in you and I am one with you. You need no one else to intercede for you because you know that my son ever lives as the intercessor for you. He finished his priestly ministry on your behalf almost two thousand years ago and you are awakening to what always was.


    My loved ones the only separation there ever was between us was the lies you believed. I can never leave or forsake you because I am one with you. I am and will always be one with you as I always have been. As you remove the lies you will awaken as the unlimited being that you have always been. Anything you dare to dream is possible for you. 


    So rejoice my beloved and again I say rejoice for the time of great joy is breaking out around you. As you awaken those things you thought were difficult will be as easy a child daydreaming. You will think of a thing and it will instantly appear unto you for it was always within you but you didn’t know how to bring it out. But now you know that joy is the power to bring it forth.


    Remember my loved ones it is written that those who truly believe have entered into rest so if you have to work at it then you aren’t doing it right. In joy you draw water from the well of salvation so if you have to strain and struggle then you are still not at rest and still in unbelief. All things have been given to you to freely enjoy but you must freely receive them from within with no strings attached. If you try to add anything to the process other than thanksgiving then you must laugh off your mistake and do it again. No more beating yourself up when you mess up because of old habits. Just shake it off and step back into your rightful place of rest and become like a little child and dream the dreams of the innocent because that is who you are.


    As it is written “you are more than conquerors.” This means there is nothing for you to conquer. It has already been won. You have already overcome and can enter into true rest and enjoy the life of abundance that is rightfully yours by inheritance. All you had to do to earn it was be born.


    So my loved ones enter into joyous rest and dare to dream again. Those who are old don’t look in the lying mirror on the wall; look at the truth within your heart where you are eternally young. Those who still struggle with the lies of sickness and poverty see yourselves as you truly are. Well and abundantly blessed. Your body is not the truth. Your eternal spirit is the truth. Your circumstances are not the truth because truth never changes and circumstances do change.


    My loved ones: lay aside judgment and anger and strife and fully participate in joy. Immerse yourselves fully into the things that bring you great joy and take your minds off problems and cares and they will vanish away. This is why my beloved Son told you to take no worry about tomorrow because when you worry about it you bring it into your life. You bring the worry in your heart into the physical realm just as you can bring abundance into your experience by being joyful.


    Once again I tell you my beloved ones, the time to worry and fret and fear is over and the time to look forward to heaven on earth has come. Let go of the old ways of fear, regret and remorse and dive into the river of living joy within you. Arise my shining ones arise!



    These are the words He gave me to share with you today.
I hope you are encouraged by them.
Until next time,
Grow Rich in His Grace,
I love you all,
Michael

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:

    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.

    

    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,

Heal Your Heart, Heal Your Life

Romans Chapter Ten

10. For with the heart one believes and is justified, and with the mouth one confesses and is saved.



Proverbs Chapter Four

23. Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.



Matthew Chapter Twelve

35. A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth good things, and an evil man out of the evil treasure brings forth evil things.



First John Chapter Three

18. My little children let us not love in word or in tongue, but in deed and in truth. And by this we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts before Him. For if our heart condemns us, God is greater than our heart, and knows all things. Beloved, if our heart does not condemn us, we have confidence toward God. And whatever we ask we receive from Him, because we keep His commandments and do those things that are pleasing in His sight. And this is His commandment: that we should believe on the name of His Son Jesus Christ and love one another, as He gave us commandment.



Hebrews Chapter Eight

10. For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, declares the Lord:
I will put my laws into their minds,
and write them on their hearts,
and I will be their God,
and they shall be my people.
And they shall not teach, each one his neighbor
and each one his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’
for they shall all know me,
from the least of them to the greatest.
For I will be merciful toward their iniquities,
and I will remember their sins no more.”



    A few days ago I was praying and I heard Father speak and say: “Give my lovely ones this message: Heal your heart and heal your life.” I asked him what did he mean and he asked me to listen and write and publish his words to all his beloved ones. Here are his words:



    My beloved ones: You are my greatest love and greatest delight. I hear your cries about unanswered prayers and I want to tell you how to change your whole world. You do this by changing your heart.


    I live within you in the deepest part of you. Your spirit that lives eternally and is loved eternally is my home and my heaven. In the beginning I created the heavens, known as your spirits, and the earth which is the life you live in your body. In that deepest heart of you is spirit, and your spirit is my spirit for I took of myself and made you. There is no separation between us.


    The place where your natural understanding and where your eternal spirit is joined is what you call your heart. It is our garden where we both dwell together. Out of this innermost part of you is where living water, which is spirit consciousness, flows outward into your life. This is why you were told to guard your heart for out of it flow the issues of life. Because your hearts were left unguarded many unpleasant things grew up there.


    Over time your hearts have been injured due to many things. False religion damaged your heart with condemnation that did not come from me for there is no condemnation for any of you. They told you that you were a rotten sinner and you were awful and deserving of burning forever in a fire although they couldn’t explain how a physical fire would burn an eternal spirit. These lies got into your thoughts and were planted in our garden. These lies produced self doubt, self criticism and self hatred.


    Another thing that injured your heart is disappointment. Because you were not taught the truth of the gospel you prayed and didn’t receive what you wanted because your own heart condemned you and told you that you were unworthy to receive. So disappointment and depression took root in your heart and made things even worse. As it is written “hope deferred makes the heart sick” so your hearts became woefully ill because of having your hopes dashed.


    Another big injury is unforgiveness, mostly of your own mistakes. Most of you have learned to forgive others but hold on to guilt when it comes to your own mistakes. You constantly live in regret and in your mind you constantly remind yourselves of all your failures and mistakes and refuse to forget the past and move into the future.


    All these things and many more are what keep you in the cycle of disappointment and gloom. You think your lives are ruined and there’s no future for you. This is an absolute lie.


    So how do you heal your hearts and heal your life? First as it is written: “The love of God is shed abroad in your hearts by Holy Spirit.” You must surrender and believe my Spirit when I tell you that you are holy, righteous, and perfect and beyond all you are loved with a love that you will never completely comprehend because it is inexhaustible. Spend time in the quiet place and listen to Holy Spirit teach you who you are and tell you how much you are loved. You shall know the truth and the truth will make you free. That truth is you are loved and no one is counting your mistakes.


    You must set aside your own opinion of yourself and believe the truth. You are justified, sanctified and glorified children and nothing can ever change who you are. Your mistakes may change your experience but they will not change your identity. If you love me or hate me or love or hate yourself it doesn’t change the truth of who you are. You are my children on your best day and your worst day, and are loved on all days.


    Remember what our beloved Paul wrote to Timothy: “Even if we are faithless he remains faithful because he cannot deny himself.” This means that you are part of me and made from me and even if you don’t believe in me I still remain faithful because I cannot deny that you are spirit of my spirit and life of my life.


    So my beloved ones; listen to Holy Spirit sing love songs to you and let your heart be healed. Spend time with your hearts open to receive my love and let that love heal your hearts. When you feel unloved think about the price that my Son paid for you because of your great value. You are loved with unlimited, eternal, joyful love and will experience my love for you throughout eternity.


    When you are in the secret place of prayer shut out all the external distractions and listen to what you hear inside. Sometimes when you try to pray a memory that causes regret or self condemnation pops into your mind. Don’t fight against it. This is part of the healing process. Your spirit is trying to eject this from your being so instead of fighting it just say this: I am forgiven, I am loved, I release myself from my past mistakes and I let this regret leave. The quickest way to remove any hindrance is love so when these things arrive just allow my love to envelop you and see this memory being changed from regret to love and let it drift away. Soon it will no longer grow in your garden and will stop sprouting up.


    My glorious ones: Let go of the past and embrace the future. You can’t drive forward while constantly looking backward or you will wreck your life. Forgive yourselves and move on. My Son forgave and prayed for the men who nailed his body to a tree, so do you really think we hold anything against you? You are completely justified. How could you know what to do when you didn’t even know who you are? Let it go and let your heart heal. Be as kind to yourself as you are to others.


    My dearest ones: only think on things that are lovely and pure and things that bring joy. You must stop looking at all the things that make you angry. Your thoughts are the seeds you plant in your heart so whatever you think on will sprout up in your life. If you think about blessings you will have blessings if you think about bills you will have more bills. If you constantly focus on sickness then that is what you will experience. Focus on blessing and health instead. Imagine a life where you are whole and prosperous and that is what you will create. You are the one planting so plant wisely. If you think about heaven you will grow heaven on earth right in your own heart.


    Do you want to live in a perfect world? Then start seeing the world as perfect. See through my eyes and not the eyes that false religion gave you. If someone troubles you then spend time in my presence and see them as blessed, beloved children full of love and joy. You have the power to change others lives by seeing them as I see them. 

    My Son asked the blind man what he wanted. He didn’t see him as blind, he saw him whole. He told the lame to walk and the man with the withered hand to stretch out his hand. You can only heal by seeing health and not by looking at sickness. You can’t cure darkness by cursing it; you must turn on light to expel darkness. You must speak truth to dispel the lies. The truth is you are perfectly whole. Embrace the truth and the lie will disappear.


    It is written: “The heavens are the LORD’S but the earth he has given into the hands of the sons of men.” The reason heaven is healthy, wealthy and full of joy is because that is all I plant here. The reason the earth has poverty and weeds and hate is because that is what man in his ignorance of who he is has planted there.


    You can decide what you plant in your heart and you can tend the garden by doing what my Son did. Remember that he told the disciples they were clean because of the word he had spoken to them. Listen to what I say to you and let my love prune away all the troubles from your life. Every part of your life that causes you harm will be pruned away just by listening to my voice telling you who you are. 

    Plant only good seeds and change your heart from a garden where some good things grow and some thorns and thistles grow. Plant only good seeds and you will have only good crops. 

    Heal your hearts by letting go of the past. Heal your hearts by allowing my love to fill your hearts and remove all fear and doubt. Have faith in my love for you. Allow that love to water your heart and wash away and break up the stones and allow that love to water all that you plant.


    It is written: “Love your neighbor as yourself.” You can’t love your neighbor if you hate yourself. Let it go! You were told not to let the sun go down on your anger. I say also not to let the sun go down on regret and disappointment. Before you go to sleep forgive others and yourself. And also my loved ones; before you go to sleep I want you to spend a few moments and purposely plant good seeds in your heart. Take time to imagine a world of love and peace and prosperity for all. Plant these things in your heart and watch your world change.


    My loved ones, once your heart is healed your world will change. The power that created the universe lives within you. This power creates whatever you think on. Fill your hearts with songs of thanksgiving and fill you world with joy. Let go of trying to change anything outside of you and take time to heal your hearts. If you take the time to heal your hearts you will heal your life.



    These are the words He gave me to share with you today.
I hope you are encouraged by them.
Until next time,
Grow Rich in His Grace,
I love you all,
Michael
