Broken Cisterns That Cannot Hold Water

JESUS ANSWERED HER, ‘IF YOU KNEW THE GIFT OF GOD…YOU WOULD HAVE ASKED HIM AND HE WOULD HAVE GIVEN YOU LIVING WATER’
(John 4:10).

Have you ever caught yourself pretending to be happy when you are not—pretending that nothing is wrong when your heart is sad, mad, or bad?  Do you play games with yourself and others when your heart hurts, because you are afraid that people would condemn you when they find out that you carry pain in your heart?  Or do you even believe the Perfect Father does not love you when you are sad, mad, or bad?

FOR GOD DID NOT SEND HIS SON INTO THE WORLD TO CONDEMN THE WORLD, BUT TO SAVE THE WORLD THROUGH HIM
(John 3:17).

Precious Child, you need to understand that it is the world’s way to condemn, but I, the Perfect Father, did not send My Son into the world to CONDEMN you…BUT TO SAVE YOU!  I sent My Son, Jesus, to give you a drink of Living Water when you are hurting–when you feel sad, mad, or bad.

MY PEOPLE HAVE COMMITTED TWO SINS: THEY HAVE FORSAKEN ME, THE SPRING OF LIVING WATER, AND HAVE DUG THEIR OWN CISTERNS, BROKEN CISTERNS THAT CANNOT HOLD WATER
(Jeremiah 2:13).

But, in order to receive the Living Water, you need to admit that your heart is hurting, first.  Stop pretending that you have what it takes.  Stop pretending that everything is OK when it is not.  Stop digging your own cisterns, trying to fill your heart with your own joy, goodness, and love.  Do not be fooled. These are broken cisterns that cannot hold water. These are your own defense mechanisms that have no power. Only the Living Water, which My Son gives freely to those who come to Him, will quench your thirsty heart. The Living Water will fill you with His Joy, His Goodness, and His Love.

What problems have you discovered when you dig your own cisterns, trying to fill your heart with your own joy, goodness, and love?

What would it take for you to stop pretending that everything is OK, and ask the Lord Jesus for a drink of Living Water when you feel sad, mad, or bad?

PRAYER: Lord Jesus, I leave my broken cisterns behind and come to drink from Your Spring of Living Water that never runs dry.  Thank you that You did not come to CONDEMN me, but to SAVE my heart from being sad, mad, and bad.  Your Greatness is unmatched!

Your Body Is Not Your Own

A friend once told me, “I wish for GOD to become my REACTION to everything in life.  Instead of reacting out of defense when someone persecutes and accuses me, I wish for God to react through me with His Love and Understanding toward my accusers.”

THEREFORE DO NOT LET SIN REIGN IN YOUR MORTAL BODY SO THAT YOU OBEY ITS EVIL DESIRES.  DO NOT OFFER THE PARTS OF YOUR BODY TO SIN, AS INSTRUMENTS OF WICKEDNESS, BUT RATHER OFFER YOURSELVES TO GOD
(Romans 6:12-13).

Beloved Child, you need to understand that the father-of-lies has come to reign in your body through your sinful nature—through his negative, destructive beliefs of abandonment, shame, rejection, and condemnation that cause your sinful defense patterns of escape. He has come to reign through the sinful reactions of your oppressing beliefs. He has come to claim your spirit, soul, and body for himself, so he can take you down the broad road of destruction. But, I have come to reign in your spirit, in your soul, and in your body through My Son, Jesus, in the place of the father-of-lies.  I have come to bring My Life into your spirit, your soul, and your body. I have come to be your REACTION in the place of your sinful defense patterns of escape.

OR DO YOU NOT KNOW THAT YOUR BODY IS THE TEMPLE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT WHO IS IN YOU, WHOM YOU HAVE FROM GOD, AND YOU ARE NOT YOUR OWN? FOR YOU WERE BOUGHT AT A PRICE; THEREFORE GLORIFY GOD IN YOUR BODY AND IN YOUR SPIRIT, WHICH ARE GOD’S
(1 Corinthians 6:19-20).

Child, while you were being led down that broad road of destruction, I bought you at a price. I sent My Son to take your place, so you may belong to Me. Accept My invitation. Stop offering your body to the father-of-lies to react in you and through you through your defense patterns of escape. Instead, receive Me into your spirit, soul, and body. Then, I will become your REACTION.

How might your life change if God were allowed to live His Life in your spirit, soul, and body, every day?

How might the lives of your friends and family change if God were allowed to love them through you, day-by-day?

How might the lives of your enemies change if God were permitted to become your REACTION, whenever you were persecuted and accused?

PRAYER: Who can understand Your, Lord God?  All things are created by You for Your Glory!  You made me for Yourself.  I am not my own.  Delight in me, God—in what You have created. Come and live Your Life in my spirit, soul, and body to become my REACTION in the face of persecution and accusations.

It Is All in Your Mind

Posted by

There is a saying that states, “It is all in the mind.”  Well, this happens to be true. Have you ever noticed that you tend to act out the beliefs that reside in your mind?  If your mind contains negative beliefs, you have negative emotions and destructive actions.  If your mind contains positive beliefs, you have positive emotions and constructive actions.  Your mind is a control center that affects your whole life: how you handle yourself, how you handle other people, and how you handle God.

THE MIND OF SINFUL MAN IS DEATH, BUT THE MIND CONTROLLED BY THE SPIRIT IS LIFE AND PEACE
(Romans 8:6).

Precious Child, think of a control tower at an airport.  It is the job of the air traffic controller to control the incoming and outgoing planes and tell them where to go.  He gives the planes permission to land and the pilots have to obey.  This ensures life and peace.

In the same way, I have sent My Holy Spirit to be the thoughts-and belief-traffic controller of your mind, giving permission to certain thoughts and beliefs to land, and others, to leave.  I, the Father, of whom are all things, want to be in charge of your life—what you believe, how you feel, and what you do. The result in your life will be Life and Peace.

FOR US THERE IS ONE GOD, THE FATHER, OF WHOM ARE ALL THINGS, AND WE FOR HIM; AND ONE LORD JESUS CHRIST, THROUGH WHOM ARE ALL THINGS, AND THROUGH WHOM WE LIVE
(1 Corinthians 8:6).

The question is: Will you allow Me to be in charge of your mind through the Spirit of My Son, through whom are all things and through whom you will receive Life and Peace?

THOSE WHO ARE LED BY THE SPIRIT OF GOD ARE SONS OF GOD
(Romans 8:14).

Who is in control of your mind—your own beliefs, or the Father, from whom are all things, and the Spirit of His Son, through whom are all things? Consider praying the following prayer, every morning, giving God’s Spirit authority to exercise restraining and directing influence over your mind and its beliefs.

PRAYER: Lord God, how encouraged I am that You are able to purify me through and through…even my mind.

Lord God, be the belief-controller of my mind.  In the same way an air traffic controller gives permission to planes to take off and land, I authorize Your Spirit to be in control of the beliefs that enter my mind, moment-by-moment.  Give permission to the pure beliefs of Truth to land, and command all negative beliefs to leave, so my life could be filled with Your Life and Peace.

How to Deal with Your Emotions

MAY GOD HIMSELF, THE GOD OF PEACE, SANCTIFY YOU THROUGH AND THROUGH
(1 Thessalonians 5:23).

Beautiful One, I, the God of Peace, yearn to purify you, through and through, all the way to your emotions.  But you need to know that your emotions do not stand alone; they are governed by what you believe—by what you accept as true or real in your own mind.  Have you noticed how often your emotions become hopeless, fearful, and bitter when you lean on your own understanding…when you depend on your own beliefs…when you rely on your own mind?

AND WE KNOW THAT THE SON OF GOD IS COME, AND HATH GIVEN US AN UNDERSTANDING, THAT WE MAY KNOW HIM THAT IS TRUE, AND WE ARE IN HIM THAT IS TRUE, EVEN IN HIS SON JESUS CHRIST. THIS IS THE TRUE GOD, AND ETERNAL LIFE
(1 John 5:20).

Child, I want you to start living differently, even today. I want you to learn how to deal with your emotions.  Whenever you have an emotion that perturbs you, I want you to find the belief from the father-of-lies that supports that emotion. Know that the father-of-lies is constantly roaming around like a roaring lion, looking for someone to devour with his negative, destructive beliefs of abandonment, shame, rejection, and condemnation. He likes to plant these in your mind with the hope that you will receive, accept, and believe them.

But, I have sent Jesus, My Son, to bring you understanding, that you may know Him who is the Truth. If you submit the beliefs that support your perturbed emotions to Jesus, He who is the Truth will show you His Perspective. Then, your beliefs will change and your emotions will follow suit. You will receive a spirit of Power, and Love, and of a sound mind…and sound emotions.

FOR GOD HATH NOT GIVEN US THE SPIRIT OF FEAR; BUT OF POWER, AND OF LOVE, AND OF A SOUND MIND
(2 Timothy 1:7).

Do you have a sound mind? If not, how does your mind influence your emotions? Are you willing to receive a sound mind, even today?

Practice, every day, moment-by-moment to submit the perturbing beliefs in your mind to the Lord Jesus. Ask Him to bring His Truth into your mind, daily. Then, you will receive a sound mind…and sound emotions.

PRAYER: Thank you, Lord Jesus, that You have come to give us a sound mind—an understanding, so we may know You, who are the Truth.  Thank you that we may be in You, who are true, and that we may know the Truth for every negative, destructive belief from the father-of-lies that enters our mind. Enlighten my understanding, daily, O Lord, so I may receive a spirit of power, love, and a sound mind, for a sound mind will generate sound emotions.

The father-of-lies opposes God’s Counsel by telling us the exact opposite of what God says. His deception provides the pink slippery world in our minds that do not make sense.

How to Deal with Your Thoughts

MAY GOD HIMSELF, THE GOD OF PEACE, SANCTIFY YOU THROUGH AND THROUGH
(1 Thessalonians 5:23).

A few years ago I realized that my actions—the things I DO in life—were not so bad.  But on the inside—in my THOUGHT life—it was a different story.  That area looked more like a war zone.  Ugly thoughts “I am a failure…I am worthless…I am a victim” ravaged my mind, all the time.  Negative, belittling thoughts were running loose, everywhere, turning my mind into a battle zone.  The worst thing was…I believed everything I thought. But then, the Lord God had a Word with me:

LET THE WICKED FORSAKE HIS WAY, AND THE UNRIGHTEOUS MAN HIS THOUGHTS: AND LET HIM RETURN UNTO THE LORD, AND HE WILL HAVE MERCY UPON HIM; AND TO OUR GOD, FOR HE WILL ABUNDANTLY PARDON
(Isaiah 55:7).

Beautiful Child, I can see that you have no peace in your thought life. I wish to change that. I wish to give you My Peace; but first, I need something from you.

Precious One, I want you to forsake your thoughts and return to Me.  Stop receiving, accepting, and believing the negative, destructive beliefs from the father-of-lies. Do not let these belittling commands from the evil one run loose in your mind, allowing them to influence your mind and injure your heart. Instead, take each thought captive and bring it before Me. If you do, I will have mercy upon you and sanctify you, through and through, spirit, soul, and body, with My Peace.

 AND WE TAKE CAPTIVE EVERY THOUGHT TO MAKE IT OBEDIENT TO CHRIST
(2 Corinthians 10:5).

What do your day-to-day thoughts look like? How do these thoughts influence your life—your emotions and behavior?

I urge you to keep your thoughts from running loose. Start catching each thought that causes you to feel bad, mad, or sad. Then, submit each one to the Lord Jesus and ask Him to exchange it for His Word of Truth to you.  With which thought do you want to start, today?

PRAYER: Lord Jesus, today, I catch this thought that has been running loose in my mind, causing feelings of shame, condemnation, rejection, and abandonment in my heart. I submit it to Your Authority to be submissive to the Perfect Father’s Will.  Remove this thought from my mind and replace it with Your Word of Truth for me. Redeem my spirit, soul, and body from the damage this thought has caused in me, so I may be sanctified, through and through, by Your Peace.

When You Do Not Feel Loved

Posted by

Have you noticed that you are prone to sinful behavior when you do not feel loved? Have you ever identified your sinful behavior patterns during times like these?  When you do not feel loved, do you start wearing a mask, thinking if you were a different person, you might be loved more?  When you do not feel loved, do you run away from situations and hide, because of the oppressing pain in your heart?  Do you place the blame on others when you do not feel loved?

I HAVE GIVEN THEM THE GLORY THAT YOU GAVE ME, THAT THEY MAY BE ONE AS WE ARE ONE: I IN THEM AND YOU IN ME. MAY THEY BE BROUGHT TO COMPLETE UNITY TO LET THE WORLD KNOW THAT YOU SENT ME AND HAVE LOVED THEM EVEN AS YOU HAVE LOVED ME
(John 17:22-23).

Precious Child, listen to My Word for you, today: It is MY LOVE that you crave the most, not your mother’s, not your father’s, not your sister’s, not your brother’s, not your husband’s. Stop looking for love in all the wrong places. Come to ME, your Father in Heaven, first. I will give you what you are looking for, because I, the Lord God, love you as much as I love My Son, Jesus. After you have received My Love, other people’s lack of love toward you will not matter to you that much, because My Love will fill you. It will shield you from the evil one—from the negative, destructive beliefs of the father-of-lies that deem you abandoned, shameful, rejected, and condemned.

I HAVE GIVEN THEM YOUR WORD; AND THE WORLD HAS HATED THEM BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT OF THE WORLD, JUST AS I AM NOT OF THE WORLD. I DO NOT PRAY THAT YOU SHOULD TAKE THEM OUT OF THE WORLD, BUT THAT YOU SHOULD KEEP THEM FROM THE EVIL ONE
(John 17:14-15).

So, the next time you do not feel loved, do not hide your pain, run from your own heart, or blame your state of not being loved on those who do not love you.  Instead, come and sit on My lap. Come into oneness with Me. EMBRACE your pain, EXPOSE your unloved heart to Me, and allow Me to EXCHANGE your sorrow for My Love.

Identify the sinful behavior patterns you have concocted for not feeling loved. Find the negative, destructive beliefs of the father-of-lies that manifest in your heart. Then, come to the Father, so He may deposit HIS LOVE into your heart.

PRAYER: How splendid are Your ways, Father in Heaven—to offer me the same Love You have for Your Son, Jesus.  I shall not lack.  Instead of running away from the pain of not feeling loved, I EMBRACE that pain and bring it to You, Lord God. I EXPOSE my unloved heart to You, making it accessible for Your Love.  EXCHANGE the negative, destructive beliefs that make me feel so unloved for Your Love, Lord God, taking what is in my heart…and giving me what is in Yours.

When You Are Weak

BUT HE SAID TO ME, ‘MY GRACE IS SUFFICIENT FOR YOU, FOR MY POWER IS MADE PERFECT IN WEAKNESS.’ THEREFORE I WILL BOAST ALL THE MORE GLADLY ABOUT MY WEAKNESSES, SO THAT CHRIST’S POWER MAY REST ON ME.
(2 Corinthians 12:9).

What are your weaknesses? What defense mechanisms do you employ when things go wrong in your life? Do you have the weakness of falling into depression when you feel hopeless?  Do you have the weakness of giving up when you feel disappointed?  Do you have the weakness of fiercely defending yourself when you feel attacked?

Precious Child, did you know that I am with you during your weaknesses? Did you know that the Power of My Son, Jesus, rests on you during your weaknesses? Did you know that it is during your weaknesses that I want to show you My Grace? Beloved, My Grace and Power are perfectly enough for you to overcome the lies of the father-of-lies, who is at work in you during your weaknesses.

NOW TO HIM WHO IS ABLE TO DO IMMEASURABLY MORE THAN ALL WE ASK OR IMAGINE, ACCORDING TO HIS POWER THAT IS AT WORK WITHIN US, TO HIM BE GLORY
(Ephesians 3:20).

My Child, through My Son, I can do immeasurably more in your life than all you can ask or imagine, especially during your weaknesses. However, you need to come to Me. You need to tell Me how you feel and which oppressing beliefs from the father-of-lies are making you weak. Then, you need to listen to My Words for you. Through My Words you will receive My Power to overcome your weakness and to do My Will in your life.

Focus on your heart, and find the weaknesses that live in your character through the lies of the father-of-lies.  Stop hiding your weaknesses. Stop running from them. Stop blaming them on others. Stop trying to fix them.  Instead, claim and name them.

Then, expose these weaknesses to the Lord Jesus Christ. Ask Him to do immeasurably more than what you can do with them—to work His Power in you, so your weaknesses may be overcome.

PRAYER: I praise You, Perfect Father, that You sent Your Son, Jesus, to deal with any weakness I might have.  Lord Jesus, I cannot fix my weaknesses, nor does it help to run from them, or hide them.  They follow me wherever I go.  Therefore, I call them by name and lay them at Your feet. Work Your Power in me, to do immeasurably more than I can ask or imagine.  Cover my weaknesses with Your Grace, so they might be overcome. To You be Glory!

You Will Be Filled

IT IS BECAUSE OF HIM THAT YOU ARE IN CHRIST JESUS, WHO HAS BECOME FOR US WISDOM FROM GOD—THAT IS, OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS, HOLINESS AND REDEMPTION
(1 Corinthians 1:30).

Blessed are you, Child, if you thirst for My Righteousness, for you will be filled.  Know that Righteousness is not a human quality, but a Gift that comes from Me. His name is Jesus Christ, My Son. I sent Him to reign in your life in the place of your sinful nature…if you let Him.

BLESSED ARE THEY WHICH DO HUNGER AND THIRST AFTER RIGHTEOUSNESS: FOR THEY SHALL BE FILLED
(Matthew 5:6).

Although I made My Righteousness available to you through My Son, it is your responsibility to decide who is going to reign in you, at each moment of each day. Precious One, you have a choice. When the jealousy, hatred, and pride that live in your sinful nature call you into sinful defense patterns, do not obey. Do not follow. Do not let your sinful nature, ruled by the negative, destructive beliefs of the father-of-lies, entice you to serve it. Rather, invite My Son to reign in your heart, instead. He is your Righteousness from Me.

THEREFORE DO NOT LET SIN REIGN IN YOUR MORTAL BODY, THAT YOU SHOULD OBEY IT IN ITS LUSTS. AND DO NOT PRESENT YOUR MEMBERS AS INSTRUMENTS OF UNRIGHTEOUSNESS TO SIN, BUT PRESENT YOURSELVES TO GOD AS BEING ALIVE FROM THE DEAD, AND YOUR MEMBERS AS INSTRUMENTS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS TO GOD
(Romans 6:12-13).

Have you noticed that you have a sinful nature? How does your sinful nature manifest in you: through jealousy…through hatred…through pride? Instead of following and obeying the sinful nature in you, invite the Lord Jesus into each of these desires, whenever they show up, and let Him erase and replace them with His Righteousness.

PRAYER: Father, how marvelous is Your Gift of Righteousness—Your Son, Jesus Christ, who became my Righteousness in the place of my sinful nature.  Remind me, daily, to come to You, Lord Jesus, whenever the jealousy, hatred, and pride in my sinful nature call me to follow and obey. Instead of following these desires into sinful defense patterns, call me to turn to You, instead, Lord Jesus, and allow You to be my Righteousness.  Let me make no provision for the sinful nature to reign in and through me, but rather, allow You, moment-by-moment, to reign in me. Then, the sinful nature, ruled by the negative, destructive beliefs of the father-of-lies, will have no hold on me.

Jesus, Your Attitude from Heaven

IT IS BECAUSE OF HIM THAT YOU ARE IN CHRIST JESUS, WHO HAS BECOME FOR US WISDOM FROM GOD—THAT IS, OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS, HOLINESS AND REDEMPTION
 (1 Corinthians 1:30).

Beloved Child, listen to My Word for you, today. I, your Father in Heaven, have sent you My Son to become your Wisdom.  Now, you might say, “My wisdom is my own. My wisdom consists of my own generally accepted perceptions.  It is my wise attitude, my beliefs, and my own daily course of action.  It is my own ability to discern.”  But, I want you to know that the generally accepted perceptions that come from your natural mind are foolishness in My sight, because your attitude and consequent actions are not full of mercy and good fruit. Therefore, I sent you a new Wisdom from Heaven to become a new Attitude in your mind.

FOR THE WISDOM OF THIS WORLD IS FOOLISHNESS IN GOD’S SIGHT
(1 Corinthians 3:19).

Child, the Attitude I want you to have is pure, peace-loving, considerate, submissive, impartial, sincere, and full of mercy and good fruit.  His name is Jesus. He is My Son. I sent His Spirit to you to live in your heart in the place of your own attitude and consequent actions.

BUT THE WISDOM THAT COMES FROM HEAVEN IS FIRST OF ALL PURE; THEN PEACE-LOVING, CONSIDERATE, SUBMISSIVE, FULL OF MERCY AND GOOD FRUIT, IMPARTIAL AND SINCERE
(James 3:17).

Know that My Son, the Attitude from Heaven, came to lead you in My Paths of Righteousness, for My Name’s sake. He came to exchange your attitude for His own—one that is considerate, peace-loving, submissive, and pure. He came to change your actions to become merciful, impartial, and sincere. He came to fill you with good fruit. Will you receive My Wisdom from Heaven?

What kind of attitude do you have? Do you have an attitude full of mercy and good fruit? If not, are you willing to ask the Lord Jesus, in faith, to become your Wisdom from Heaven? If so, check your attitude, daily, and expose it to Him, whenever it comes up. Then, ask Him to exchange it for His own—an attitude filled with mercy and good fruit.

PRAYER: Lord Jesus, be my Wisdom from Heaven.  Become a New Attitude in my mind—one that is full of mercy and good fruit. Protect me from relying on the perceptions that come from my own mind.  Remind me, daily, to stop using my own attitude and beliefs as the means to judge and treat those around me, but to invite Your Attitude to guide my course of action, moment-by-moment.  You alone abound in Wisdom!

You Need the Truth

HE WAS A MURDERER FROM THE BEGINNING, NOT HOLDING TO THE TRUTH, FOR THERE IS NO TRUTH IN HIM. WHEN HE LIES, HE SPEAKS HIS NATIVE LANGUAGE, FOR HE IS A LIAR AND THE FATHER OF LIES.  YET BECAUSE I TELL THE TRUTH, YOU DO NOT BELIEVE ME!
(John 8:44-45)

Precious Child, I want you to realize that there is one thing in this life that you cannot do without— MY TRUTH.  Why not?  My Truth is essential to you, because you have an enemy.  His name is the father-of-lies.  His weapon is DECEPTION.  Do you realize the full meaning of deception?  Deception is the practice of luring somebody into believing something THAT IS NOT TRUE. 

GOD HATH FROM THE BEGINNING CHOSEN YOU TO SALVATION THROUGH SANCTIFICATION OF THE SPIRIT AND BELIEF OF THE TRUTH
(2 Thessalonians 2:13).

I am Your Father in Heaven, who understands the art of deception and who knows the enemy’s schemes, inside-out. From the beginning, I have chosen to save you through sanctification of My Spirit and trusting in the Truth. Child, I can save you from the enemy’s lies, but you need to be willing to come to Me to receive the Truth.  When you stop leaning on your own perturbing perceptions and invite My Perspective into your own perceptions, no matter how true they seem to you, I will show you My Truth.  When you believe and receive My Perspective, you will experience a miracle, each time.

TRUST IN THE LORD WITH ALL YOUR HEART AND LEAN NOT ON YOUR OWN UNDERSTANDING
(Proverbs 3:5).

Are you willing to be saved from your perturbing perceptions, by believing the Truth, moment-by-moment? Then, tune in to your heart and find the perturbing perceptions that make you feel abandoned, condemned, rejected, or ashamed. Lay these perceptions before God and ask Him to show you His Truth. He will…if you are willing to believe.

PRAYER: Precious God, I praise You for choosing me from the beginning through sanctification of Your Spirit and belief of the Truth. I am willing to believe Your Truth, so I may be saved from the oppressing beliefs of the father-of-lies that make me feel sad, bad, and mad. I am willing to submit my daily perturbing perceptions to You, in exchange for Your Perspective. Teach me to trust You with all my heart, instead of leaning on my own insights, so I may give glory to Your Name.
