He Broke Away Your Chains

Precious One, listen to My Words. The enemy, the father-of-lies, would like to convince you that you are no good: that you are despicable…loathsome…strange.  Then, after he deems you unaccepted and unacceptable, he urges you to WORK and STRIVE for your acceptance.  When you find out that your striving is not bringing any results, he urges you to WORK HARDER.  But no matter how hard you strive, you will never be able to work yourself into wholeness, this way.

LONG BEFORE HE LAID DOWN EARTH’S FOUNDATIONS, HE HAD US IN MIND, HAD SETTLED ON US AS THE FOCUS OF HIS LOVE, TO BE MADE WHOLE AND HOLY BY HIS LOVE
(Ephesians 1:4 MSG).

I, the Lord your God, want you to know that you are not despicable. You are not loathsome. You are not strange. On the contrary, you are the focus of My Love. I made you for Myself. I delight in you. But, you will never know or believe these words, unless you come and sit awhile with Me and allow Me to tell you, personally, how much I love you.

HE BROUGHT THEM OUT OF DARKNESS AND THE DEEPEST GLOOM AND BROKE AWAY THEIR CHAINS (Psalm 107:14).

Child, give up trying to WORK and STRIVE your way into wholeness…into OK-ness…into an accepted heart.  Instead, come and sit quietly at the feet of My Son, Jesus, and share your heart with Him. Tell Him how you feel. Ask Him for His help. When you sit in darkness, His Love will become a Light to you to show you My Righteousness—to guide you out of the deep gloom of non-acceptance into the way of Acceptance and Wholeness. During your fellowship with Him, He will break away your chains.

DO NOT REJOICE OVER ME, MY ENEMY; WHEN I FALL, I WILL ARISE; WHEN I SIT IN DARKNESS, THE LORD WILL BE A LIGHT TO ME…HE WILL BRING ME FORTH TO THE LIGHT; I WILL SEE HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS
(Micah 7:8-9).

Listen to your heart, and find the very first childhood incident that caused you to feel despicable…loathsome…strange. Then, lay that incident, with its feelings and beliefs, before the Lord Jesus, asking Him to break away the chains these beliefs of non-acceptance caused in your personality.

PRAYER: Lord God, lead me into wholeness.  Bring me out of the dark beliefs of non-acceptance that deem me loathsome, despicable, and strange.  Break away my chains, as I stop striving to fix my dark accusatory beliefs of non-acceptance by myself. Hallowed be Your Name!

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.

Woe to us, the rebellious children, when we take counsel from the father-of-lies, and when we cover ourselves with coverings that are not from God. We will add sin to sin.

Life through His Spirit

Beautiful Child, are you tired of life…your life…an empty life that makes no sense? I have a message of Good News for you, today. I have a new life available for you—a Life of Fullness that makes sense, every day, moment-by-moment, in all circumstances, in every way. It is the Life of My Son, Jesus, whom I sent as a Life-giving Spirit to dwell in your heart.

GOD SENT THE SPIRIT OF HIS SON INTO OUR HEARTS…A LIFE-GIVING SPIRIT
(Galatians 4:6 and 1 Corinthians 15:45).

I want you to know that I did not abandon you in the wilderness to deal with this life on your own: to try and fill your own empty life…to come up with ways to solve your own problems…to run to distraction and destruction to cover your pain.  On the contrary; I long to be involved in every detail of your life, so you may be filled to the measure of all My Fullness.  In order to lead you to this Life of Fullness, I sent the Spirit of My Son to become a channel through which I may communicate with you and you with Me. When this relationship of communication is established in you, and you are living in My Fullness, life will finally make sense to you, every day of your life.

THAT YOU MAY BE FILLED TO THE MEASURE OF ALL THE FULLNESS OF GOD
(Ephesians 3:19).

Beloved, unite with Me. Listen. Tune in. Become one with Me through the Spirit of My Son. Connect with your heart, daily, and listen to what I want to tell you through this Life-giving Spirit.  You will hear a message of Life…a message of Peace, Hope, and Joy…a message of Fullness.

BUT HE WHO UNITES WITH THE LORD IS ONE WITH HIM IN SPIRIT
(1 Corinthians 6:17).

Are you leading an empty life? Do you long for fullness? Take an inventory of your heart and find all the empty places. Then, invite the Lord God to fill each one of those places with His fellowship and fullness through the Life-giving Spirit of His Son, Jesus.

PRAYER: Everlasting Father, You are the God of Life—the God of Fullness.  My heart thirsts for You. I hunger to hear from You and receive from You this Fullness that fills everything in every way.  Enable me to connect with my heart and to unite with You through the Life-giving Spirit of Your Son. Dispense Your Life into all the empty places in my heart that are hurting and lacking, so I may be filled to the measure of all Your Fullness.

To You be Glory!
