    As I was praying 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, may I have your attention please? I have spoken to you over and over and over but so many are not listening. There is great change going on in your world as light fills in the dark places and those who love to dwell in darkness because their ways are evil are exposed. This is a great day but there is still a problem.


    So many of you have your eyes fixed solely on what is happening and it’s like you can’t take your eyes away even for a moment. Although what it is happening is a wonderful thing it is still not supposed to be your focus. I liken it to Lot’s wife who couldn’t take her eyes off the destruction and was overcome by it. You must take time each day to refocus your attention on me and not get caught up in every little detail of the events happening in the world.


    My loved ones, as it is written, only if your eye is single will your body be filled with light. You get filled with light by looking at the light not by gazing into the darkness. If you keep staring at the darkness, even though you are looking at its destruction, your minds will be filled with the darkness you stare at.


    I have told you to look ahead and look into my eyes and see a glorious future but so many of you are stuck watching the darkness being rooted out and have lost your joy because of it. Your focus should always be on me just as my beloved first born said: “I only do what I see my Father doing.”


    Let’s think about this for a moment. What did my Son see me doing? A man with a withered hand was before him and he told him to stretch out his hand. He didn’t see the hand crippled but saw through my eyes that it was already whole and the man didn’t know it. He asked a blind man “what is it that you would have me do for you? He didn’t see him blind but saw him whole.


    My loved ones as long as you see yourselves or others as broken then that is what you will experience. Do you remember that when the blind man received his sight he saw what my Son saw? He said “I see men as walking trees.” Not bowed down and broken but trees of righteousness, bearing forth the fruit of my Spirit and my love. He saw men as already whole.


    There was a man who was paralyzed because of guilt over his sin. My beloved one told him his sins were already forgiven and to take up his bed and walk. Once again seeing him whole made him whole. This is how I want you to see the world. I don’t want you to see it full of darkness and evil. This will only produce more darkness and evil. I want you to see what the prophet saw when he said: “The whole world is filled with the glory of God.”

    
    So many of you are reeling because of the evil deeds that have been revealed and you can’t see the world full of my glory anymore. Yet it hasn’t changed. For every one darkened person there are a million who are loving and kind. Those who want to keep you in darkness will never tell you this. They will show you darkness until darkness fills your whole world.

    
    The only cure for darkness is light. If you want to change your world you must be a lamp that stays lit because it stays connected to the light source. If you want a world that is filled with joy, peace, love and goodness then you must focus on the source of goodness.


    This is what my beloved said “You must eat my flesh and drink my blood if you want to have my life in you.” He was not talking about cannibalism. He told you he is the bread that came down from heaven. By setting your minds and your hearts upon him and upon us you connect yourself to the vine that feeds you.


    As my Son said "I am the vine and you are branches." You don’t feed yourselves. You get your nourishment from me and you get it through keeping your hearts and minds in tune with me. You can’t be in tune with me and focused on the world at the same time. You must take your eyes off of the wind and waves if you want to walk on the water.


    Do you remember that my Son and his disciples were in a boat and a great storm arose? The storm came to challenge their peace. My Son had already told them that they were going to the other side. If they had thought a moment they would have realized that the one who said they were going to the other side was the same one who spoke the earth into existence. All things were created by him and for him. They could have been sleeping in the boat right next to him and they still would have made it. They could have chosen to remain at rest instead of confronting the storm. They woke him up and he stopped the storm and rebuked them not because they didn’t have faith to stop the storm but for not having faith that the storm could not stop them.


    My dearest ones: I don’t want you to be afraid of the storm that is happening around you. I want you to crawl in my lap and go to sleep and let me handle it. No more fear and worry and watching each bolt of lightning and shaking from the thunder. You can rest in me and get off the roller coaster of emotion that so many of you are riding on.


    As the Psalmist wrote: “He who abides in the secret place of the Most High shall dwell in the shadow of The Almighty.” So you have to choose to abide in me and dwell in me by keeping your eyes and your hearts tuned to me. You can choose to dwell in the chaos you see with your eyes or dwell in my protection by keeping your minds set on me. As it is written: "I will keep him at perfect peace whose mind is set on me."


    My loved ones; I have a place of peace and security ready for you. It’s been ready since before the world began. I have peace that you cannot get from the world. I have a place of love and joy that you can live in at all times. All I need is your attention. May I have your attention please?



    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

John Chapter Sixteen

13. When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth, for he will not speak on his own authority, but whatever he hears he will speak, and he will declare to you the things that are to come.



Galatians Chapter One

11. For I would have you know, brothers, that the gospel that was preached by me is not man’s gospel. For I did not receive it from any man, nor was I taught it, but I received it through a revelation of Jesus Christ.


Ephesians Chapter Three

1. For this reason I, Paul, a prisoner of Christ Jesus on behalf of you Gentiles assuming that you have heard of the stewardship of God’s grace that was given to me for you, how the mystery was made known to me by revelation, as I have written briefly. When you read this, you can perceive my insight into the mystery of Christ, which was not made known to the sons of men in other generations as it has now been revealed to his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit.


Romans Chapter Eight

14. For all who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God.



    As I was praying 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 children, I long to have conversation with each of you but so many of you are stuck in this book called the Bible and can’t hear what I am saying to you. The Bible as you call it is a holy book in its original writing. It contains words of the prophets and apostles and great words recorded that my beloved Son spoke to the people. However this book was given to you to be an introduction to me and not to be read as if it is all I have to say to you. Throughout the centuries men who did not have your best interest at heart changed the meaning and used it to trap you inside its pages.



    My loved ones even in my Son’s days of walking on the earth he told you that the scribes and Pharisees had taken over Moses place and had twisted the original meaning of scripture. Do you remember that my Son said “you have heard that it is written to hate your enemies but I say to love your enemies and do good to those who persecute you?” He wrestled with the same thing. People used a book that was written in love and written in parable and allegory and twisted the meaning to put people in bondage. He told the Pharisees that they put rules on people that they themselves didn’t keep.



    Today many who call themselves my ministers rule over their congregations by using parts of the book that do not pertain to you to keep you in fear and in prison. Let me make it simple: any verse you read that is not seen through the eyes of a loving father who gave all he had to save you is a wrong translation. If you read the book and find condemnation then you did not properly divide the word of truth.



    As our beloved Paul told you that there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ. None, whatsoever! So if you read and don’t feel encouraged then you misunderstood the original meaning and need to dig deeper into the original meanings. Yet there is a much better way.



    On the day of Pentecost my Holy Spirit came. Holy Spirit didn’t come handing out books and rules. What came was the indwelling presence inside you that knows all and sees all and came to teach you all that you need to know.



    Think of it this way. So many of you say if it’s not written in the scriptures then you don’t accept it. So what about those who wrote the scriptures? What they heard and wrote was not in the book before they heard and wrote it. Can you imagine when the prophet said that a virgin shall give birth what the people who read it thought? They declared the prophet crazy and said no such thing had ever been heard of.



    My loved ones, your teacher who dwells within you will teach you the meaning of the scriptures. You need no man to teach you for you have the greatest teacher dwelling inside you.



    What I am saying is that what was meant to be a roadmap to the destination has become the destination for so many of you. You are stuck two thousand years in the past when I am trying to lead you into a glorious future. Some worship the book and call it "The Word of God." My glorious son is my Word. He is who that the prophets of all spoke of. He said if you have seen me you have seen my Father. John said "in the beginning was the word and the word was with God and the word was God." There was no version of your book with me in the beginning but my glorious Son was there.



    Another thing that those who imprison you with the book misunderstand is that scripture was written for you but not to you. Yes there are eternal truths written in my book but there are timelines in scriptures that are not for your day. For example; there was a time before Moses gave the law when people were not judged because there was no law. There was a time when the children of Israel agreed to a covenant with me and lived under this law until after my Son fulfilled the law and sat down at my right hand. There was another time period from when my Son fulfilled the law until the whole system of law was destroyed when the temple and the Old Testament priesthood ended with the destruction of the temple.



    As it is written in the letter you call Hebrews the way into the holiest of all was not available as long as the earthly tabernacle was still standing. Just as the forty years were spent in the wilderness all those who had been born under the Law of Moses were given a generation to come into the new before the old was destroyed.


    What you call the New Testament letters were written in this time. That is why it seems confusing to some. Some try to take the warning of the apostles and push them forward into your day but they were teaching people in their day how to live in their day. For example Paul told his followers that it was best not to get married but this didn’t mean forever. It was because he knew the tribulation was coming in their time. It is also why he said this "present suffering" is nothing compared to the glory about to revealed in them. This is why John said he was in “The Tribulation.” This is why John said that it was “the last hour.” They weren’t speaking of the end of the world but of the end of the age of the Old Testament. You can learn greatly from what is written but these events are already finished.



    Do you remember that my Son told the people standing in front of him that some of them would not taste death before all the things he warned them of would come to pass? You must consider the audience that the letters were written to in your understanding.



    When the Apostles made statements that included the words “we” they were speaking of themselves and others in their time. If you write to a friend and say “we will go fishing when I arrive” you don’t mean people two thousand years from now. If someone reads your letter two thousand years from now they will not expect you to show up and take them fishing. This is one way people who call themselves ministers keep you trapped in the book. They see everything as future and don’t realize how much was already fulfilled.



    Remember this is the New Covenant. I will write my laws in your heart and on your mind. This is so each person in each generation can have truth to live by that pertains to their day and their situation. I am God of all but I am God of each of you personally and desire a one on one relationship with each of you.



    The scriptures are holy as originally written but they were the roadmap to the destination, they were not the destination. Suppose you look at a map to go to your friend’s house and when you get there you just ignore your friend and keep staring at the map. Yet this is what my church has done. They deem the study of the book more important than face to face fellowship with the one who the book was written about. When you go to a restaurant do you eat your food when it arrives or do you keep reading the menu?



    My loved ones it is time to know and be known. I want you to know the one who loves you so much that I have to live within you because anywhere outside you would be too far away. I love you too much to be a faraway God and I don’t want to be just the God you read about in a book when I live inside you.



    Do you remember when they spoke about my Son they said if all the things he did were written in books the world couldn’t contain the books? So are those things he did thrown out because they weren’t recorded in the book? Are only things recorded legitimate?



    I have given many of you dreams and visions and visitations but because you don’t have scripture and verse you discarded the encounter. Many of you ignore the love words I am writing on your heart and have your head in a book that you don’t understand because it was twisted and used to control you.



    I am not saying to throw away the book. I inspired the book and my words were written by the hands of those who wrote it in the beginning. I am saying that you have the author inside you and you should consult the author with any question you have about meaning. Or better yet, when you read the book ask my Spirit to give you the true meaning of the words. Please remember my Son taught in parables and without a parable he taught nothing.



    Paul said he would show you a mystery that had been hidden for ages. That mystery was in the book and misunderstood for thousands of years. Only when revealed by my Spirit did it come alive to those who read it. As it is written: The letter kills but the Spirit gives life, so without revelation you don’t get life from the book. This is why my Son told the Pharisees that they searched the scriptures looking for life but didn’t find it.



    So if all you get from reading is a history lesson you completely missed the original meaning. If you take all the prophecies in the book and think they are future then are you looking for another savior to be born in Bethlehem? My Son told the Pharisees that the law and the prophets were all written about him. They were not written about people thousands of years after him. In the book you call The Revelation our beloved John was told over and over that the time of these events was "at hand." Not thousands of years in the future.



    My loved ones I know I tell you these things often but many are still not hearing. I will not stop teaching until you understand because I love you too much to leave you in ignorance about how wonderful you are and how much you are loved. I long to show you what wonderful gifts are lavished upon you because of that love. You are adored and I live and breathe inside you because of my love for you. I want you to know the one who lives within you. I want to be your God, not just Paul’s God or Peter’s God or John’s God. You are just as beloved as them.



    I want to write my love letters in your heart until you understand that you have been my plan for generations. Yes you are happy when your friend is in love but isn’t it better if you experience it yourself? It is written “taste and see that the LORD is good.” It doesn’t say to read and see.



    The Apostles and Prophets and my beloved firstborn experienced amazing adventures in me. Don’t you want to do the same? I long to do just as many miracles through your hands as theirs. This doesn’t come with reading a book. The Pharisees memorized my book and used their understanding of the book to crucify my first born Son. Yet when people saw my Son’s disciples coming they said that these men had been “with” him. Not read about him.



    They experienced him face to face and yet were told that the Spirit that was in him would be in them also. He told them it is better for him to go away and send Holy Spirit for he was one man with them and Holy Spirit would be Almighty God within them.



    It’s the same with you: As long as you see me as a faraway God beyond the blue that people in a book wrote about you will not experience my indwelling presence. You can’t look for me in a book and look for me inside you at the same time. Here is my plan for all of you. I will live in you and walk in you and I will be “YOUR” God and you will be “MY PEOPLE.” There are great and wonderful experiences for you to have if you will come Beyond The Book!



    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,

Philippians Chapter Three

12. Not that I have already obtained this or am already perfect, but I press on to make it my own, because Christ Jesus has made me his own. Brothers, I do not consider that I have made it my own. But one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead, I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.





    As I was praying 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: It is the day when you must trust me with all your hearts and don’t lean on what you understand with your minds. Everything you know is changing. I am removing all the lies you have been taught for generations and I am restoring the truth of the finished work of redemption that my Son accomplished when he offered up himself in place of all people and drew all people unto himself. As it is written if one died for all then all were dead. It’s time to arise to a new day and the whole truth about who you really are.


    My loved ones, almost everything you have ever learned from education and newscasts and books has been a lie. All of these lies were woven together to keep you from knowing who you truly are. It is really this simple. Just as my Son said “I and my father are one.” The same is true for you. We are one spirit as it is written “he that is joined to the Lord is one spirit.” Soon you will understand what this means.


    Each of you individually is my child. Not one is favored above another. There is no difference in my love for you than the love I have for my first born. You are all my adorable children who were born of my Spirit long before we made the world. You are not a body; you are a life giving spirit just like my first born Son. Each of you existed with me long before we made the world. Each of you is my beloved and each of you has a name that only you and I know but you have forgotten who you are.


    You believe you are the person who your parents told you that you are. They gave you an earthly name and taught you that you were their child. If you remember my firstborn told you that you should not call any man on earth your Father for your Father is in heaven. Your true identity is heavenly and not earthly.


    Do you remember that when my Son’s earthly parents lost him and had to go back and get him that he said he was about his Father’s business? He understood even at an early age that his birthright was from heaven and not earth. Soon you will understand what this means and will walk in the fullness of all the things that are written about you. I am the One Father from whom all the families of heaven and earth are named.


    My loved ones, you must begin to lay aside all ties to the earthly realm and live according to the sprit realm and your true identity. As you identify with your true identity as my children then all things will change. This is why you were told to no longer know any man after the flesh but to know each other spirit to spirit. As long as you see yourselves as human and not Godly you will live as a human and not a God from God.

    Many of you have prayed over and over asking me to release to you the power that my firstborn son displayed but the problem is not that you are lacking power but that you are lacking understanding of your identity, therefore you don’t have the faith to wield the power you already possess. As person with a servant belief system will never sit down at the table with the sons and daughters. You must see yourselves as you truly are and then all heaven will break out.

    My loved ones, I tell you these things over and over so that you will learn. I want you to know who you truly are so that we can have true fellowship. As long as you see yourselves as slaves you will not feel like you belong at the master’s table.


    Our beloved Paul told you to come boldly to the throne of grace. Not timidly like a servant who is afraid of being punished but boldly like a beloved child who knows he is welcome in Father’s house. A servant will wait and eat the crumbs left on the master’s plate while he is cleaning the dishes. A child who knows that he is a beloved child will sit in his Father’s lap and eat with him from his Father’s plate.


    It is written without faith it is impossible to please me for those who seek me must believe that I AM and I reward you just for seeking me. You must believe that I am pleased and come to me knowing that I am well pleased with you. I am so pleased I can’t help myself. When my children come to me my heart melts and I have to give them something just because I love them. My love overflows and it thrills me just to know you are looking for me. You are absolutely adorable in my eyes.


    There are so many things that false religion has entrapped you in and I am so happy that you are beginning to break free from that bondage. By grace you are saved through faith and that is not from yourselves but faith is a gift from me. It’s one of those things I give you for seeking me. I gave everyone the measure of faith so no one is lacking enough faith to come to me. False religion tells you that you must work to please me. The truth is I have been pleased with you since you were born of my Spirit before the world began.


    Those of you with children will understand this. When your baby is born you are in love with the child and it doesn’t matter that they can’t even care for themselves. You are happy to serve them their food and their bath and provide all that they need just because you adore them. This is how I feel about you. It doesn’t matter what you choose to do for a career. I love you if you perform surgery on brains or clean toilets. I just want you to be happy. If you know who you are you will be like my firstborn. He was just as excited to wash dirty feet as he was to heal the blind or raise the dead. Love turns any task into pure joy. Your value is in who you are not in what you do.


    My loved ones, it’s time to let go of the lies and truly understand that you are my greatest joy and the joy of all of heaven. I mention your name and the angels rejoice and the saints in heaven break out into song about you. You are that loved and I long for you to know that and hold on to that because your world is about to be turned upside down from dark to light. The lies will fall away but some are addicted to the lies. They are like a bird in a cage that fears freedom when they could be an eagle soaring into the heavens.


    Many are like those whom I delivered from Egypt. They preferred the stability of a place to sleep and steady work of that of true freedom. It’s no different today. Almost all of you have lived in slavery even though the cage door was open all the time. Those who knew the door was open told you it was shut so you wouldn’t leave. If you tried to leave they called you dreamers and crazy. The warned you of the dangers of thinking for yourself and belittled you if you didn’t stick with the herd mentality. They didn’t dare tell you that you are a spirit being who ranks higher than the angels. No way they would tell you that you could tap into the power inside and live far above the world you know.


    My loved ones I am telling you today. The door is open. You can learn who you are and live high above sickness, disease and poverty. You have all of heaven to help you but you must let go of your false identity and take on your heavenly identity.


    Be ready for extreme change. Forget what lies behind and look to the future with excitement.  Be ready to put the earth into order and turn earth into the image of heaven. Be ready to let go of the past and press on to the high calling. Your spirit is above and it’s time for your mind to come up higher. My loved ones: The door is open!


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

John Chapter One

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 John Chapter Two

He Himself is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not only for ours but also for the sins of the whole world.



First Timothy Chapter Two

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 Saviour; who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.



First Timothy Chapter Four

9. The saying is trustworthy and deserving of full acceptance. For to this end we toil and strive, because we have our hope set on the living God, who is the Savior of all people, especially of those who believe.



Romans Chapter Eight

1. There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. For the law of the Spirit of life has set you free in Christ Jesus from the law of sin and death.



Galatians Chapter Five

1. For freedom Christ has set us free; stand firm therefore, and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery.




    As I was praying 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 loved ones, it is time to come out of the system that was fulfilled and removed almost two thousand years ago and live in the truth of the new creation. Old things have passed away and all things are new but most of my children don’t believe that because they still judge by the system that was taken away and not by the truth of the laws I write on your hearts.

    If you go back to the commandments written on stone to judge others then you put yourselves back under the condemnation of that system. As my Son told you. “Judge not lest you be so judged for the same method you judge with will be used to judge you.” It’s basic sowing and reaping.

    So many of you want to live under my grace while judging others by the law that Moses gave but you can’t have it both ways. You must judge only by the truth of the finished work of the cross. My Son took away the sin and judgment of the whole world. He took all sin upon himself. If you judge others as guilty you are heaping that judgment upon my Son for as it is written, “if one died for all then all died.” Remember it is written: “I did not send my son into the world to condemn the world but that through him it would be saved.”

    My loved ones, you are free from the old law that could only bring death. This doesn’t mean you will be free to live any way you want. If you believe that it just means you don’t understand that the blood of my Son didn’t just set you free from the punishment of sin but from sin itself. You can’t have a sin consciousness and righteousness consciousness at the same time. If you know that you are forgiven and are righteous and holy then you will live that way. Focusing on sin will bring more sin and focusing on your holiness will free you from sin.

    My dear ones, this goes back to the tree of knowledge of good and evil. If you judge one thing as good and another as evil then you are still eating of the tree that brings death. The tree of life is what Paul was eating when he said “we present every man perfect in Christ.”The tree of life is what my firstborn Son was eating of when he told people their sins were forgiven even before they asked for forgiveness.

    Remember that I was in my Son when I reconciled the whole world unto myself. People are not good and evil they are awakened to righteousness or asleep to righteousness. Sadly it is the condemnation of those who call themselves my church that keeps them asleep. When the church tells them they are evil and forsaken then they live that way. If the church told the truth that their sins were taken away at the cross and all they need to do is come home to the truth and they can be free then that will become their reality.

    Do you remember that Paul told you that as long as Moses is read the veil remains over their eyes? The law that Moses gave could only blind, condemn and kill. It didn’t have the power to change the hearts and minds of people. They had to make a sacrifice every year to remind them of their guilt. Christ made a sacrifice that was eternal. His blood cries out better things than the blood of Abel or the blood of bulls and goats. The blood of Abel cries for vengeance, the blood of bulls and goats cries out for judgment and the blood of my Son cries Father forgive them for they don’t know what they are doing. So as long as you tell them of their guilt you are blinding them with the law and keeping them from seeing the truth. As it is also written “the veil is taken away in Christ.”

    This is the same reason my children are in bondage to a system that you are actually above. Because you haven’t believed that you are righteous and holy you expect to be powerless against those who rule over you. One day you feel righteous because you know you are in Christ and the next day you use the written commandments to judge yourselves and when you do you fall from the grace and the power of it.

    Nothing is as it seems to your natural mind. For example: Our beloved one whom you call John was abandoned on the island called Patmos. It seemed he was a prisoner on the island and could not escape. He was called up to is true reality and realized the truth was that he was not really stranded on an island but was free to move about as he wished. The door was open and can never be shut.

    My loved ones, the absolute truth is that you are seated far above anything in this world. Because you keep blinding yourselves and others by judging the world by the law that was already fulfilled in Christ you believe yourselves to be of the fallen world and not of the world from above. You are in my Son so how much higher than the world and its fallen ways could you be? You are a new creation who is more powerful than anything this world could throw at you but you see yourselves as from below and not from above. When you awaken to who you really are then you will no longer be a slave to anyone.

    My beloved ones remember that you are the garden. The tree of life who is my Son lives in you and you in him. In you also is the tree of that knowledge of good and evil. You must choose which tree you feed from. If you see all men as fallen and judge the world according to Moses law, then you eat the death that comes from that tree. If you see all men as forgiven in Christ and know that his eternal purpose is working in all to teach them of their true identity then you eat of the life of Christ. Remember it is written that the law came by Moses but grace and truth came by Christ. Remember also that our beloved Paul called the law the ministration of death written on stone tablets. Any time you judge yourself or another by that law you submit yourself unto the curse of it. This is why Paul called the Galatians foolish. The law of the Spirit  of life in Christ has made you free from the law. Don't get yourselves entangled again in what I made you free from. 

    So how do you overcome centuries of bad training? You become not a judge but an observer. When you see those who are overtaken by the fallen mind and living in what you call sin then you don’t judge them but proclaim their freedom and their deliverance that was already accomplished in Christ. He told you that if he was lifted up on the cross he would draw “all men” unto him. Not just the believers.

    Those who walk in darkness don’t know about the freedom that was already given them in Christ and how will they know without a preacher? How will they ever know if those who call themselves preachers constantly condemn them for living in ignorance of the truth? Their sins were taken away at the cross but they don’t know it so they continually live as if it never happened.

    Here is another example: Suppose you see someone who is addicted to drugs. You don’t call them derogatory words. Instead you might say: “This is a beloved child of God. I declare their freedom was obtained by Christ on his cross. I call them forth into their true identity of a righteous, holy child of Almighty God and proclaim that they are free from every problem that leads to bondage!” It’s not calling things that are not as though they are, but instead proclaiming the eternal truth about things that already are and therefore dissolving the illusion that is only a temporary fact.

    Remember as I told you again and again. I was in Christ on that cross reconciling the whole world unto myself and “NOT” counting men’s sins against them. Sin wasn’t the problem. Not knowing they were my children and instead living like wild creatures was the problem. 

    Ignorance is the only evil you will ever need to overcome. My Son made peace with all things in heaven and earth by his own blood. All authority in heaven and earth was given to him and he dwells in you. He defeated all enemies and the only enemy you have left is ignorance. As it is written "my people perish for a lack of knowledge."

    I sent my beloved One to show you who you are and how you should live. He is the firstborn of all of you. You are no less than he is. The only difference is that He knows who he is and you are just beginning to believe. Once you fully know then you will live like a heavenly child and not be entangled by the world but just as my Son did you will go about proclaiming the good news of reconciliation and deliver many from living in the ignorance of their minds and not in the truth of the Spirit.

    Eat only from the tree of life. See all people as forgiven and treat them accordingly. Judge only righteous judgment as my Son did when he determined that people didn’t know what they were doing. No longer judge people as good or evil but as awake or asleep and try to awaken those who are asleep but do it with love. Remember within the garden called you there are two trees: The tree of life or the tree of judging by good and evil. Remember this. You are what you eat.



    This is the end of 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,

Colossians Chapter One:

New Living Translation



15. Christ is the visible image of the invisible God.

He existed before anything was created and is supreme over all creation, for through him God created everything in the heavenly realms and on earth.

He made the things we can see and the things we can’t see such as thrones, kingdoms, rulers, and authorities in the unseen world.

Everything was created through him and for him.

He existed before anything else, and he holds all creation together.

Christ is also the head of the church, which is his body.

He is the beginning, supreme over all who rise from the dead.

So he is first in everything.

For God in all his fullness was pleased to live in Christ, and through him God reconciled everything to himself.

He made peace with everything in heaven and on earth by means of Christ’s blood on the cross.

This includes you who were once far away from God. You were his enemies, separated from him by your evil thoughts and actions. Yet now he has reconciled you to himself through the death of Christ in his physical body. As a result, he has brought you into his own presence, and you are holy and blameless as you stand before him without a single fault.

But you must continue to believe this truth and stand firmly in it. Don’t drift away from the assurance you received when you heard the Good News. The Good News has been preached all over the world, and I, Paul, have been appointed as God’s servant to proclaim it.



    As I was praying today these verses bubbled up into my heart and I looked them up and studied them and when I did 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 loved ones, you must become immovable in the truth about who you are. So many of my children sway to and fro and are not steady in believing who you really are.

    You are holy, perfect, blameless, sanctified, justified and glorified. You are my children born in my exact image and this must be what your faith is built on. If you believe you are a sinner barely saved because of my grace then you will waver in your faith and never grow strong in it. If you know you are my child and perfect in my sight and chosen before I made the world and are on earth with a heavenly purpose, then your faith will move mountains. Most of you have faith in me but you have no faith in who I said you are.


    So why is this so important? Why do I keep telling you these things over and over and over? I do so because that is the way you learn. Faith comes by hearing and hearing and hearing and hearing. When you learned your alphabet your teacher didn’t just tell you once and you knew it. You rehearsed it over and over and over. This is what true meditation is. You take the truth I told you about being perfect and blameless and holy and you rehearse it in your heart over and over and over until it becomes a part of you.


    It’s the same way my first born learned. He was taught the scriptures when young and told that he was the promised one to come. He heard it over and over and over and then one day I couldn’t contain my joy any longer and I had to shout out that he is my beloved Son in whom I am well pleased! 


    As this became truth in his life he grew in faith and power just as you will. He started out with things like healing Peter’s mother in law of fever and before long he was curing leprosy, raising the dead and allowing the virtue within him to heal multitudes. 

    Just as with my firstborn it all starts by believing who you are. I am just as pleased in you. I blessed you with all blessings in heavenly places. In great joy I shouted your names out all over heaven and spoke great and wonderful things about you!


    Think of it this way. The Pharisees believed in me. Most of what they believed was wrong but they believed. Yet they didn’t change the world. They even wanted my Son dead because he called me Father and not God. They knew that the child is the same as the parent and if he called himself my child he was saying he was my equal. This is what it so hard for most of my children to believe even though they see their own children as their equals they don’t see the same between themselves and me. Do you remember what Paul told you in his letter to the Philippians? “Let this mind be in you that was also in Christ. Who counted it not robbery to be equal with God.”


    Having faith in me doesn’t work until you have faith in you also. Until you believe that you are the sent ones and you are the holy ones who came from me into the world then you will struggle.

    The whole universe is waiting for the revealing of the Sons of God; not the servants of God. All of creation is groaning and travailing, waiting on you all to wake up and take your places in charge of all that I created. Do you remember it is written that the heavens are the LORD’S but the earth he has given into the hands of the sons of men? All of creation is like a ship with no one at the wheel. The man I put at the wheel doesn’t know it’s his place to drive. I get blamed for the chaos in the world when man is supposed to be tending the garden called earth.


    My loved ones, you must decide to believe what I said about you. You were chosen long before I made the world. You are the ones who will put things in order and change the whole world. I told my firstborn to sit at my right hand until I make the earth his footstool. It is not his place to put the earth in order. It is yours.


    So many in my church believe that it is going to be worse and worse until my firstborn returns and puts everything in order but this is not the plan and not what was written. Some even believe that I will take the church away just when the world needs it the most and allow all of civilization to crumble and the earth to burn.


    Does that sound like love? Just rapture me out of here and let the world go to hell? Were you not told to love your neighbor as yourself? Would I send my firstborn into the world to pour out his life and blood on the earth only to turn around and give it to his enemies? Once again false religion has fooled my children into believing that I love them and hate the ones who don’t know me yet. Did they forget that no one knew me when I sent my Son into the world to save it?


    Sadly some of my children cheer when bad things happen and say “that’s the sign of the times.” Instead of being ready to heal and deliver the ones who need saving they instead cheer for their destruction thinking this somehow speeds up their own escape.


    This false teaching has caused many to go astray. Instead of building for a glorious future they are planning for a great escape. I have a plan for this world and it is a glorious plan that my firstborn told you about. “In earth as in heaven.” That is the plan. There is no other. I said subdue the earth not abandon it.


    I want you all to awaken to who you are and stand strong in the faith that you are holy and blameless as you stand in my presence without a single fault. As our beloved Paul told you so you must do. You must continue to believe in this truth and stand strong in it.


    Don’t let so called religion tell you about your faults and your shortcomings. That is a lie. Know who you are. Believe in who you are. Live in who you are. Anyone who tells you that you are less than my firstborn is lying to you. As he is so are you in this world. You are not step children. You are born of my Spirit. You are life of my life. No more doubt about who you are. Let go of the lies and stand strong in the truth!



    This is the end of 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,

The Truth About You

Finding His Will

Matthew Chapter Eight

5. When Jesus returned to Capernaum, a Roman officer came and pleaded with him, “Lord, my young servant lies in bed, paralyzed and in terrible pain.”

Jesus said, “I will come and heal him.”

But the officer said, “Lord, I am not worthy to have you come into my home. Just say the word from where you are, and my servant will be healed. I know this because I am under the authority of my superior officers, and I have authority over my soldiers. I only need to say, ‘Go,’ and they go, or ‘Come,’ and they come. And if I say to my slaves, ‘Do this,’ they do it.”

When Jesus heard this, he was amazed. Turning to those who were following him, he said, “I tell you the truth, I haven’t seen faith like this in all Israel!



Acts Chapter Thirteen

1. Now there were in the church at Antioch prophets and teachers, Barnabas, Simeon who was called Niger, Lucius of Cyrene, Manaen a lifelong friend of Herod the tetrarch, and Saul. While they were worshiping the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, “Set apart for me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them.” Then after fasting and praying they laid their hands on them and sent them off.



Ephesians Chapter One

11. In him we have obtained an inheritance, having been predestined according to the purpose of him who works all things according to the counsel of his will.





    As I was praying today these verses spoke to me. I was thinking about them when 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 loved ones, I have a plan and I have a will and I work all things after the plan that I made. Sometimes you don’t understand my will and my plan so you get discouraged when things don’t go as you want them to. I don’t want you to be discouraged. I want you to be full of joy.


    My children, so many of you are trying so hard to be or do things you were not called to do. I have a plan for each of you and it is not a one size fits all plan. All of you share a great inheritance and all share in my great love but some are forgetting that each individual is part of the whole body. We have so many fingers trying to be eyes and so many hands trying to be mouths and this is why you fail and become discouraged. I have a glorious plan for each of you and only need you to come to me to get your instructions.


    The centurion had the greatest faith of anyone in Israel because he understood that my beloved Son was under authority and had authority. He understood that whatever he said would be so. He told one to go and he went. He told one to come and he came. As you remember later my Son told you that all authority in heaven and earth was given unto him.


    It was the same way at Antioch. There were many gifted teachers and prophets but only Paul and Barnabas were sent out. The others remained and found their calling where they were or were sent out later.

    My Son told you that he only did what he saw me doing. It is the same with you. Spend time with me in fellowship and you will be shown the way to go and the thing to do. All are not apostles. And even though all can prophesy not all are called to be prophets. All are not teachers. All are not evangelists. Yet as Paul told you there is a better way called love to where you understand your completeness and walk in the fullness of Christ. All of the gifts listed and more will work through you as you realize how complete you are and how much you are loved. Ask and I'll show you. 


    All that you need to know is on the inside of you where I dwell. I write my laws on your heart and on your mind. Not on tables of stone or sheets of paper. I will tell you where you fit in to my perfect plan if you will come into the secret place within and listen.


    My scriptures are holy and are written for your benefit but not all things written are your specific instructions. I hear so many say you should do everything written in the book. This is not the case. My Son told disciples to go get a donkey. Do you have a donkey? He told them to follow the man with the pitcher of water. Do you know the man with the water? Have you caught the fish with the gold coin? These were specific instructions given to specific people at specific times.


    What I am saying my loved ones is your calling is not generic. Each of you is vitally important to my plan and each one of you has works that I ordained for you to walk in. This was true even of my firstborn. He healed the man at the pool but didn’t heal them all. The man who was laid at the gate had been crippled for many years but was not healed until Peter and John came by. And yet there is more to understand. When you understand what day you are in and what was already done things will come together for you perfectly.

    My loved ones, many things you read in your bible pertained to the people and the times they lived in. For example the letters Paul wrote to the Corinthians were in response to letters they had written to him them for the days they lived in. The Revelation of John was written to seven specific churches of their day. Over and over he was told that the time of these events was at hand at their time and yet most of my children believe it is pushed thousands of years into the future.


    If this were the case what good would it have been to the ones it was written to? Why make seven copies to send to seven churches if it were only for those far off? Daniel was told to seal up his book because it was distant future. This turned out to be 490 years. "Distant future" was 490 years but "at hand" is 2000 years and counting? What kind of math is that? John saw the book unsealed and was told not to seal it up for the time was "at hand."  

    Once again what comfort would the seven churches have had if they knew it did not pertain to them but was for people thousands of years in the future? It is a glorious book about the revelation of my glorious Son but now people think it is a scary end of the world burn it all down book. They completely miss the spiritual meaning behind the words. The letter kills but the Spirit gives life. You can learn from all things written but not all things written are your specific instructions.


    This will end the frustration for many of you. So called Religion has pushed you to do things and be people you are not called to be. They have a one size fits all mentality and miss the fact that our relationship is much more intimate than that. Don’t let others push you into doing things you were not told to do by me.


    Faith comes by hearing and hearing by my word. Not my written word but my voice in your heart. Many atheists know the bible much better than most of my children but they don’t have faith. They know every verse but don't believe I exist. So the written word only brings faith when I reveal it to you in your spirit.


    This is why so many are discouraged. They try to make things happen by faith in instructions I gave to others. Suppose you go to a farm nearby and tell the farmer to give you his donkey because I have need of him. He may have you arrested or even shoot you. My children command things to happen and when it doesn’t happen they are broken. When I speak into your heart and tell you to do something the faith to accomplish it will come. Peter stepped out of the boat and began walking on water because my Son told him to come. The others didn’t get out of the boat. Not because of fear but because they weren’t told to come. Had my son told them all to come they all would have come.


    Peter was sent to the Jews and Paul to the gentiles. When Paul tried to go to the Jews it didn't go well for him. I will lead you where you need to go and show you what to do or I may not send you at all and will bring the people you need to help right to where you are. All of my works were finished from the foundation of the world and I handed them out by the counsel of my will. You will not miss out on what you were ordained to do.

    My plan hasn’t changed. I want all to walk in perfect health and prosperity but my church is living by examples given two thousand years ago and not living from my living voice. Man shall not live by bread alone but by every word that proceeds from my mouth. Not every word written on paper. 


    For example: Suppose you pray for someone who often gets sick to be healed and time and time again they get healed only to get sick again of something else. But what if you helped them get the revelation that by my Son’s stripes they were already made whole? Then you would never have to lay hands on them again. They would live in the perfect truth and never have to suffer again. 

    Holy Spirit came to lead you into all truth and show you things to come. Spirit reveals that you don't need healing because you already were healed. Spirit reveals that you are one with me and I am not sick. You are not made free by the laying on of hands. You are made free by knowing the truth that makes you free. These are things you will only hear in the secret place and not find by following a religious script.


    So my loved ones enter into my rest and listen for my voice. My kingdom is within you because I am in you. As he is so are you in the world. When you awaken to the truth of who you are, you will be who I made you to be. When this happens all that you need to do will happen naturally. You will not strive in works but will abound in good fruit. Be fruitful and multiply my dear ones!


    This is the end of 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

John Chapter Three

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.


John Chapter One

29. The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.


John Chapter Twelve

32. And I, if I am lifted up from the earth, will draw “all people” to myself.” Now He was saying this to indicate what kind of death He was going to die.


First Timothy Chapter Four

10, For to this end we toil and strive, because we have our hope set on the living God, who is the Savior of “all people,” especially of those who believe.




    As I was praying today I heard Father speak and He said “I still do!” I asked; still do what your majesty? He said” I still love the world that I sent my Son to save. I didn’t send him to condemn but to save those whom were confused and wandering like sheep without a shepherd.” Then He asked me to listen and write and publish his words. Here are his words, he said:


    My loved ones there is only one purpose in heaven and in earth and that purpose is love. I am love and my whole being is a burning unquenchable fire of passion towards each and every one of my children. So who are my children? Do you remember what our beloved Paul told you? There is one God who is the father of "all" who is above "all" and through "all" and in you "all!"


    In the early days of the church my loved ones went about spreading the great news of reconciliation telling others of how much they were loved and telling them that their sins were taken away at the cross and they were free to come home with no shame. This is the true message of the gospel but today’s church is more about correcting morals than loving those who are broken. The good news is that this is about to change.


    Morality has fallen apart because people don’t know who they are and don’t know how much they are loved. Instead of teaching the truth those who should be spreading love are spreading hate and division. They forgot that my Son took away the sins of the world. Remember what I said to Peter? Don’t call unclean that which I have already cleansed. This was before he went to Cornelius’ house. This was before Holy Spirit came upon those at his house.


    Think of it this way. Suppose that in your town there is a street where all the lamps have lost connection and no longer shine. The streets are dark and scary. Every Sunday your pastor preaches against the darkness. You gather your friends and curse the darkness and you march against the darkness and you have fund raisers to change legislation to outlaw the darkness but no one realizes that all you must do to stop the darkness is restore the connection and repair the lights. The lights don’t know that they are broken because they are disconnected from their power source. This is what the true gospel does. It restores the connection and restores the lights.


    My loved ones soon all these things will change. Many in my church are seeing the truth of my love and it’s changing their lives. They understand broken people do broken things and only the truth of the gospel can fix them. As it is written “all sin is unbelief.” Not believing the truth about who they are leaves people vulnerable to fall into the dark places of thought and they end up in a dark place in their minds. They are confused and don’t know that they are children of God and they lose their way.


    You can’t mandate or legislate morality and that is why the prisons are full. More laws and more punishment are not the answer. Love is the answer. Truth is the answer. Telling people the absolute truth of their divine heritage is the answer to their problems. Identity changes everything. If they knew their true identity they would not be confused about who they are.


    My lovely ones do you remember that my Son told you that if you clean the inside of the container the outside will be clean? Trying to clean people from the outside is useless. You must get to the heart of the matter which is the ignorance of who they are? Once people know they are my offspring and are loved beyond their wildest dreams then the living water inside will take care of all the outwardly problems.


    My church cries out for the power of the early church but they don’t preach the message the early church preached. My Son sent out disciples into every town and told them to heal all the sick within and then preach the gospel. They didn’t ask them to believe and then be healed. They showed them my loving kindness and allowed them to respond to the act of love they had experienced.


    Think of my Son when he encountered anyone who was trapped in sin. He never condemned. He set them free by the love he had for them. He told the woman who was about to be stoned to death for adultery that her sins were forgiven and go and sin no more. She didn’t ask for forgiveness. It was given before she asked. Knowing she was loved and forgiven broke the power of sin in her life.


    It’s the same with the crippled man. He was told your sins are forgiven take up your bed and walk. Knowing he was forgiven broke the power of sickness in his life and set him free. The same guilt keeps many crippled in mind and body today. What if they knew they were already forgiven? What if those who call themselves the church didn’t tell them every day that they are guilty and deserve what they are suffering? What if instead they were told that they are beloved, precious children of God?


    The way to set people free is to proclaim to them that they are already free. I was in Christ on the cross reconciling the whole world unto myself, not counting men’s sins against them. Religion has told people that I am mean and angry and can’t wait to throw people into a burning fire. Those who say such things are more confused than the people they are judging. I am love and love does what love is. I am reaching out to each and every person to let them know they are loved and all that is needed is to believe that I set them free already and come home like the prodigal son. Knowing who you are changes what you do.


    My Son is the lamb that took away the sins of the whole world and if you are judging people because of their sin then you are the one in unbelief and don’t understand the power of my Son’s crucifixion and resurrection. Love is the eternal cure for sin. Hate never fixed anything.


    So what I am saying my loved ones is know who you are and how much you are loved. Come to know my love that passes well beyond anything you could ever dream of and you will be filled with my fullness. The river of living water within you will overflow and cure everything in your world and in the world of those around you.


    It is written that my son is the light that lights “every man” who comes into the world. The gospel message is not judgment and doom but the revealing that the spark of love is within every person. You don’t have to bring them to church or to some altar. You just need to show them the life that is already in them. Every person alive has a spirit and I am the father of all spirits.


    Remember the one called Saul? He was out persecuting the church but I met him on a road and showed him the light of who I am and who he is. He left everything he believed behind him and even changed his name. He said that I revealed my Son “in him” and that changed his life. He quickly realized that I was always in him and he didn’t know it.


    You are all one and you can’t persecute another without harming yourself. I don’t mean one as in there is only one person. I mean one in the sense that you are all family. I am the one God and the father of you all. My firstborn that you call Jesus was the firstborn among many brethren. Do you remember what John saw in his revelation? A great multitude standing before the throne that no one could count from every tribe and nation and every tongue. These are my children. Each of you is an individual but each of you is part of one. My firstborn was an individual but he proclaimed that he and I are one. 

    You are all my children. You are not me but you are no less than me. A a child is no more or less than their father. The Father is greater because he was first and the child did not produce himself but was the offspring of the Father. 


    This is why you were told to know no man after the flesh for you are all spirit of my spirit. Just because one of my children forgot who they are and choose to live in the pigpen doesn’t mean they are not my children. The part of you that is spirit is eternal. At the center of each of you is the spirit that is born of incorruptible seed and is not touched by your mistakes and failures but remains holy forever. So look for me in every person: Even the ones who have lost their way. Remind them of who they are and lead them to the truth that has always been true about them. They are beloved children who have forgotten who they are and where they came from.


    BE READY! The gospel of love is about to sweep the world like wildfire and when the world is swept all will know me from the least to the greatest. You are entering the age of love and healing and the whole world will be healed as they learn the truth that they are already complete. Tell each and every one you meet that I adore them. Tell them their sins were forgiven and broken at the cross. Tell them that their sickness and disease was taken away by my beloved Son. Tell them they are free already and only need to believe it to leave their horrors behind them.


    Sickness, disease, poverty, racism, hate and violence will become things you read about in history books and not things that happen every day. I put man in the earth to turn the earth into heaven and that is in progress.


    My plan hasn’t changed. I sent my first born into the world to proclaim my goodness and so I send each of you also. You are the light of the world and the city set on a hill. Shine brightly until the earth is filled with my glory and that glory shines in every heart. Why will this happen you ask? It will happen because “I still do!”


    This is the end of 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
