Look At The Light: Restore Your Soul

Psalm 23

The LORD is my shepherd;

I shall not want.

He makes me lie down in green pastures;

He leads me beside quiet waters.

He restores my soul;



Second Kings Chapter Six


8. Now the king of Aram was warring against Israel; and he counseled with his servants saying, “In such and such a place shall be my camp.” The man of God sent word to the king of Israel saying, “Beware that you do not pass this place, for the Arameans are coming down there.” The king of Israel sent to the place about which the man of God had told him; thus he warned him, so that he guarded himself there, more than once or twice.

Now the heart of the king of Aram was enraged over this thing; and he called his servants and said to them, “Will you tell me which of us is for the king of Israel?” One of his servants said, “No, my lord, O king; but Elisha, the prophet who is in Israel, tells the king of Israel the words that you speak in your bedroom.” So he said, “Go and see where he is, that I may send and take him.” And it was told him, saying, “Behold, he is in Dothan.” He sent horses and chariots and a great army there, and they came by night and surrounded the city.

Now when the attendant of the man of God had risen early and gone out, behold, an army with horses and chariots was circling the city. And his servant said to him, “Alas, my master! What shall we do?” So he answered, “Do not fear, for those who are with us are more than those who are with them.” Then Elisha prayed and said, “O LORD, I pray, open his eyes that he may see.” And the LORD opened the servant’s eyes and he saw; and behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha.



Colossians Chapter Three


1. Therefore if you have been raised up with Christ, keep seeking the things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your mind on the things above, not on the things that are on earth. For you have died and your life is hidden with Christ in God. When Christ, who is our life, is revealed, then you also will be revealed with Him in glory.





     As I was in worship this morning Father did what he often does for me. He used scriptures like a paint brush and began painting a picture for me. I began to study these verses and wonder why he stopped in the middle of the Psalm and why he picked up in the middle of another and then another.

     As I was thinking on these things he spoke to me and asked me to get ready to write and to listen and write what he was going to say to me. Here are his words. He said:

     My son, write down these words I speak and share them with my beloved ones. First things first! Tell them: Do not fear! Again I say, do not fear! Put your trust in me and don’t consider what the world is selling you.

     My little ones, you are living with broken souls and emotional distress. The reason for this is that your natural eyes are overwhelmed by negative events and emotions. Even though most of it isn’t real it still appears real to you because you see it everywhere.

     On the inside of you where the Spirit joins the body there is something like a sorting room. Most of you know it as your soul. In this place information is gathered from the physical realm and is supposed to be measured against what you see in the spiritual realm and sorted.

     My Holy Spirit leads and guides you into all truth so you shouldn’t accept anything as truth until you have spoken to Holy Spirit about it. I only let you see the problem so you can fix it, not so you can be overcome by it. When you see something wrong it’s not so you can dwell on it and become affected by it but so you can pray about it and change it.

     Because of religion and because you have listened to those who would judge you and not love you, the part of you that sees in the spirit is either completely turned off or mostly turned off. This leaves no balance in your soul and your soul becomes wounded and in some cases broken. You always see yourself alone against the world and don’t see the heaven within and the heavenly host with you to assist you.

     When you only look at the world with the broken mind you constantly see sorrow and gloom and pain. This leads to despair and depression. However there is great news! The best way to drive out this darkness is to focus on the light. Your eyes can be opened just like the servant of Elisha. But there is even better news! You don’t have to have a prophet pray for your eyes to be opened. They are already open! 

     You are blessed because you have ears to hear and eyes to see. If you didn’t you wouldn’t be hearing or reading these words right now. My Son is the light of the world so you have light to see by but you have been taught to see darkness instead. You are lacking nothing and have all you need. All you need is practice.

     So how do you overcome this problem? You overcome evil with good. By looking into the heavenly realm and seeing the good you can overcome this darkness that is destroying your soul and consuming your peace.

     There is a simple way to refocus your spirit eyes and overcome this problem. Just ask yourself a few questions. Be honest with yourself. 

Do you watch the news more than you fellowship with me? 

Do you worry more than you worship? 

Do you consider what you see with your natural eyes more real than what you see with your spiritual eyes?

     It’s that simple. You have the power to overcome all things. It’s your choice. If your eye is single then your body will be full of light. Instead of dwelling on negative events when you see them just ask me what I think of these events. Just remember that all you see with your natural eyes is temporary and what you see with your spiritual eyes is eternal.

     Most of the time you only see the image the fear mongers want you to see. They will pass up ten delightful stories to spend hours telling you of one bad thing that happened. It’s always been this way. Even in the stories your children read it always begins with “Once upon a time.” What? Can good things only happen once? You are trained from a child to see good as rare and evil as common.

     My beloved ones: Listen to me. All things work together for your good. I have already blessed you and you can never be cursed. I have given you the power to choose. You can experience hell right in the middle of heaven or experience heaven in the middle of hellacious chaos. It is your choice.

     Do you remember that my beloved David said even if he made his bed in hell I would be with him? Don’t forget that your bodies are in the world but the real you dwells in heavenly places with me. You are eternally safe.

     Yes I am your Shepherd. I will lead you to the still waters but those waters are within you. I will lead you to the green pastures but those are within you. I will restore your soul if you will just lift up your heart to me. Not up to the sky but up to me who dwells in the heaven inside you.

     Fill your heart with thanksgiving and soon you will understand that all you feared was just a shadow. It’s simple, the light is within you so the shadow has to be on the outside. Inside is light. Outside is shadow. The only difference is where you choose to set your mind.

     Come to me you who are afraid. Let my perfect love for you drive away all fear until you are fully convinced that you are secure in me; until your soul is completely restored and filled with heaven again. No more gawking at the darkness when you could be basking in the glorious light.

     I love you my dear children. Rest in my love until you understand that you are above and not below. Look at the light and restore your soul.



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

The Truth About You

Uniquely My Beloved!

Second Corinthians Chapter Five

16. 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.

Ephesians Chapter One

3. All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realms because we are united with Christ.

Even before he made the world, God loved us and chose us in Christ to be holy and without fault in his eyes. God decided in advance to adopt us into his own family by bringing us to himself through Jesus Christ. This is what he wanted to do, and it gave him great pleasure.

So we praise God for the glorious grace he has poured out on us who belong to his dear Son. He is so rich in kindness and grace that he purchased our freedom with the blood of his Son and forgave our sins. He has showered his kindness on us, along with all wisdom and understanding.

Colossians Chapter Three

1. If then you have been raised with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth. For you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. When Christ who is your life appears, then you also will appear with him in glory.



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. The reason why the world does not know us is that it did not know him. 

 Beloved, we are God’s children now, and what we will be has not yet appeared; but we know that when he appears we shall be like him, because we shall see him as he is. And everyone who thus hopes in him purifies himself as he is pure.



     As I was praying for each of you today I asked Father if he had anything he wanted to say to you. He told me to be ready to write, so I listened and wrote down the words he wanted to share with you. Here are his words:


     My beloved ones; it is time for you all to be awakened to who you really are. You are spirit of my Spirit. You are my beloved and you are not just part of my creation but the reason for all that was created.

     Almost all of the problems you face whether physical or mental or financial are all rooted in your false identity. When you truly understand who you are then all these problems will fall away and you know that you are heavenly beings living upon the earth.

     It has always been my will for earth to be just like heaven. If it were not so I would have just kept you all in heaven when you were here before I made the world. You were chosen before the foundation of the world to be holy and blameless before me in my love.

     Heaven is mine but the earth was given unto you. My original plan for you to subdue the earth and rule over it is still in effect. Just because Adam sinned does not mean that my plan changed.

     Think of it this way. If you set out to mow your lawn and the mower breaks, it doesn’t mean you let the lawn go wild. You will repair what is broken or replace it and stick with the original plan. Especially if you knew beforehand that the mower was going to break and you already planned its repair in the budget.

     I have not abandoned my plan. My plan has always been to bring my children unto glory. Do you remember the prayer that my Son told you to pray? Thy Kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as in heaven. For thine is the kingdom and power and glory forever. The kingdom comes with power and glory and that is why the earth will be filled with my glory. The kingdom is within you so the glory will come from within you also.

     The problem is the same as the beginning. When Adam fell he stopped operating in the heavenly mind and he suddenly became more aware of his lack of clothing than he was in the abundance of my garden.

     My Son came and took all that away. He came to restore you to your right mind and identity but religion has once again told you that you were lacking and naked and that you should be ashamed of yourselves.

     I am not ashamed of you. My Son is not ashamed to call you his brothers and sisters. Even before he went to the cross he said the ones who did my will were his mother and brother and sister.

     My beloved, you must let the earthly mind die and live in the heavenly mind. This is why my Son had power to change anything. He knew who he was. He understood that he was the son of man and yet the Son of God also. He understood that he and I were one and just because he had on a body didn’t mean he was not clothed with my Spirit.

     You were told by my beloved Paul to let the same mind that was in Christ also be in you. When you awaken to this mind then your whole world will change. When you learn to think with your heavenly mind then the thoughts of your heart will change and as a man thinks in his heart so is he. Once you realize you are my beloved children you will live as if you are my beloved children.

     This is the awakening when you realize you are not lowly earth creatures and just poor sinners saved by my grace. You are saved by my grace but what you are saved from is the idea that you are a poor sinner saved by my grace. The Prodigal son was not called the Prodigal sinner. He was always a son even when eating with the hogs.

     You are and have always been my child. You are not a body. You are a spirit that is living an eternal life. Right now that life is living inside a body. If you take the body away you will dwell in a new one but you will not cease to be because you are eternal spirits.

     Jesus lived in the higher mind and his body was controlled by the higher mind. He was indestructible. Because his body was infused with spirit it could not be killed. He had to lay his life down because it was not possible for it to be taken from him.

     The Apostles lived in this state of spirit infused bodies also. That is why Paul could be beaten to death and yet get up and go back to preaching. The higher mind is not subject to the physical laws of the natural world. This is why my Son could walk on water and disappear and reappear and walk through walls. As soon as you come up to the higher mind then your bodies will be whole and so will everything else in your world.

     This is why people struggle with healing. A sick body is not a cause but an effect. Just as fever is not a cause but an effect of a virus or infection. Once you cure the mind then the body will be quickly made whole. 

     Remember that these things are not caused because you are being judged or punished. These things result from thinking and living in the fallen mind. The wages of sin is death but sin is not a cause but also an effect of forgetting who you are and living like who you are not. Once you really, really know who you are then you will awaken unto your righteousness and will never sin again.

     This is why religion has failed you. They treat the symptoms as if they were the cause. It’s like telling a child to stop having fever without treating the cause of the fever. Once you remove the cause then the fever will cease.

     My loved ones: Come up higher. Stop believing what you see with your natural eyes and what you hear with your natural ears. Start living from the Spirit and you will see heaven is always with you. You will not see a world of broken people who are full of hate and anger but you will see a world full of the children of God who are asleep to their real identity.

     So my loved ones; think with the higher mind, live from the Spirit and not from the natural. You can do this by always asking me to show you the real truth in every event. Remember that we are one so when you look upon another, ask me what I think of them and what I would do to help them.

     Do what you see me doing as Jesus did. Don’t use formulas and pray the prayers you have heard other’s pray countless times. I will give you the answer and tell you what to do if you will always ask. I will pray through you and with you because I know the exact need according to my perfect will. My will is for all to know me from the least to the greatest. My will is for you to be as healthy and blessed on earth as you are in heaven.

     Remember that you were told that you are my children and when Christ appears you will appear with him in glory. This does not mean you have to wait until one day when Christ returns. It means that when you see every man in Christ and Christ in every man then you will understand that you are already my glorious children. When Christ becomes more real to you than what you see with your eyes then you will appear with him in glory.

     You were already sanctified, justified and glorified. You have always been and will always be my beloved children. When you are awake then awaken your brothers and sisters also.

     Know no one after the flesh. Start by doing this; when you see another do not greet them by their earthly name. Greet them with “Hello, child of Almighty God clothed in the glory and splendor of your Father!” This is the truth of who you all are. Each of you is my glorious child born of my Spirit and because of my love. You are born because there is a place in my heart that only you could fill. You are uniquely my beloved! Live as my beloved!



     This is the end of the words he spoke to 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,

Eternally Safe

Psalms Chapter Nine

9. The LORD is a stronghold for the oppressed,
a stronghold in times of trouble.
And those who know your name put their trust in you,
for you, O LORD, have not forsaken those who seek you.



Psalms Chapter Forty Six

10. “Be still, and know that I am God!
I will be honored by every nation.
I will be honored throughout the world.”
The LORD of Heaven’s Armies is here among us;
The God of Israel is our fortress.



John Chapter Fourteen

18. “I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you. Yet a little while and the world will see me no more, but you will see me. Because I live, you also will live. In that day you will know that I am in my Father and you in me, and I in you.


Colossians Chapter Three

1. If then you have been raised with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth. For you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. When Christ who is your life appears, then you also will appear with him in glory.


Matthew Chapter Six

25. “That is why I tell you not to worry about everyday life; whether you have enough food and drink, or enough clothes to wear. Isn’t life more than food and your body more than clothing?

Look at the birds. They don’t plant or harvest or store food in barns, for your heavenly Father feeds them. And aren’t you far more valuable to him than they are? Can all your worries add a single moment to your life?

“And why worry about your clothing? Look at the lilies of the field and how they grow. They don’t work or make their clothing, yet Solomon in all his glory was not dressed as beautifully as they are and if God cares so wonderfully for wildflowers that are here today and thrown into the fire tomorrow, he will certainly care for you. Why do you have so little faith?

“So don’t worry about these things, saying, ‘What will we eat? What will we drink? What will we wear?’ These things dominate the thoughts of unbelievers, but your heavenly Father already knows all your needs. Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need.

“So don’t worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring its own worries. Today’s trouble is enough for today.


Psalm Chapter Twenty Eight

The Lord is my strength and shield. I trust him with all my heart. He helps me, and my heart is filled with joy. I burst out in songs of thanksgiving.



     It was three o’clock in the morning. I woke up with the song I learned in Sunday school blasting away in my spirit. You know the old song “I’ve got joy, joy, joy, joy down in my heart? My toes were tapping and the musician side of me wanted to grab a guitar and rock out.

     I opened my eyes and said “Good Morning Father.” He said “good morning son, I need you to get up and write a love letter to my beloved ones. I want to take away the fear they are facing and replace it with joy and peace."  I grabbed a cup of coffee on the way to my computer and sat down to take dictation. He began to speak and I began to write and He said:


     Oh my beloved! My beloved, my beloved my beloved! Why are you fearful? 

Did you forget that you are the reason the world was created? 

Did you forget that you are my treasure and my love? 

Did you forget that I rejoice over you with singing? 

Did you forget that my Son came from heaven full of grace and truth to show you how much you are loved?

 Did you forget that you are fearfully and wonderfully made? 

Did you forget that you are the apple of my eye? 

     Oh my sweet beloved ones will you please turn off the news of the storm going on in the world and let me bring you peace instead? I know many of you are afraid but you don’t have to be. You can set your minds on things above and take it off things below. You can have perfect peace because you set your eyes and mind upon me. 

     Do you remember that I told you that the one who dwells in the secret place abides in my shadow? You must make up your mind that you dwell in me and not in the world. Your bodies are in the world but your spirit abides in me and I abide in you. You must remember that you are a spirit and not a body, and spirits are eternal. You are safe and no one can take you away from me. Neither death nor life nor any other thing can take you from me. You are eternally safe my beloved.

     Each time today that you have the opportunity to fear don’t do it. Instead set your mind and heart upon me and rejoice. There is no answer on that news channel. The answer is in me. There is no answer in worry but answers live in joyous faith.

     Instead of living in fear I need all my children to unite in faith. Just imagine what would happen if all those who know me would release their love and faith into the world right now. Instead of releasing and repeating fear what would happen if you all stood together and rejoiced in the God who is your deliverance? 

     This war you are fighting will not be won with anger and cursing and rebuking. You were told to overcome evil with good. Let worship be your weapon. Release the worship in your heart into the world and things will change.

     Oh my beloved children, I give you peace. There is no peace in the news or in the world. My peace is eternal and is a ruling power. Why would my Son be called The Prince Of Peace? It is because He rules over peace. He gives peace to you to release into the world.

     Do you remember when the disciples were in a boat and the storm was raging? Did Jesus get up and rage against the storm? No, he didn’t. He told the wind and waves “Shhhh!” and said “Peace, be still!” It wasn’t a ten hour prayer meeting of blasting this and rebuking that. It was just the Prince of Peace releasing the peace within him upon the storm. I promise you that the peace inside you is stronger than the storm is outside.

     To release peace you have to know that it is inside you. Add joy to your peace and release it in a song. All that you need is inside you because I am inside you. I will always be in you and you will always be safe with me.

     So my loved ones; know that you are safe in me and release the power of my peace that abides in you upon the world. I gave you authority over every storm. The only reason you have trouble exercising that authority is because you don’t exercise it in love and peace and joy.

     Find your shelter in me. Hide yourselves in me. Know that you are in me and I am in you and you are safe. Once you know you are safe then you can release the love within you to the world to drive away the fear.

     Right now is a great time to show the world love and peace. Not fear and worry. Be not afraid my loved ones it was my great pleasure to give you the kingdom. The King and the kingdom abide within you.  

     When you overcome this storm with peace then peace will break out into the world. All heaven is about to be unleashed upon the earth to heal and deliver and restore. It will be so because my children will realize that heaven is within them and will learn to bring what is within them unto the outside realm.

     So remember to hand out all the love and mercy you can and season it all with my peace. Give those whom you call unbelievers a hand of love and not a fist. Give them love and mercy and not anger and wrath. Tell your friends and neighbors to be in loving peace and not in fear. Perfect love drives out all fear and you are perfectly loved so why are you afraid?

     I am with you always. You will never, ever, ever be alone or without a deliverer. I am in you and my grace is upon you. Don’t forget my loved ones; arm yourselves with a song and not with weapons. Remember the words of the prophet when he prophesied of my Son.

To the increase of His Government and of Peace there shall be no end!

     Let go of fear and increase your peace!
Love each other my little ones and give no place to fear. Bask in my love until fear is nowhere to be found.



     This is the end of the words He spoke to me early this morning.
I hope you are encouraged by these words.
Until Next time,
Grow Rich in His Grace,
I love you all,
Be safe and well and at peace!

The Truth About You

What Are You Preaching?

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

michaelottministries.podomatic.com



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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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



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

Psalm Twenty Three

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

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

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


Matthew Chapter Fourteen

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

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

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

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

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



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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Daniel went through the lion’s den. 

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Hello Love: Goodbye Fear!

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

michaelottministries.podomatic.com

First John Chapter Four

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

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



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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Sharing The True Gospel

John Chapter One

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


First Corinthians Chapter Fifteen

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

Second Corinthians Chapter Five

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

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

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

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

First John Chapter Two

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

Acts Chapter Ten

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

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

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

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

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

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

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


Ephesians Chapter One

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

First Timothy Chapter Two

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



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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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