What’s the best way to turn from anger to joy? From sadness, grief, fear, worry, doubt, unbelief and every other dark energy to peace that surpasses understanding?
It’s easy…stop trying to understand. Stop trying to figure out how to get out of your predicament and come back to a place of rest. It can be an immediate shift if you allow it to be. It’s all dependent upon where you place your focus.
What or who are you looking at right now? Are you seeing through the eyes of your spiritual mind or the eyes of your worldly mind?
The thoughts you entertain determine the life you choose to lead. More specifically, the place you live from within determines who you live with from within.
Is it Me or the darkness?
There are only two residences from which you may live: the temple of love and eternal life or the temple that erodes your soul until you cease to exist. One is built up and renovated as it allows the Master Builder to refurbish the temple back to its original design; the other shatters your sense of identity until the lies you’ve believed become all that’s left to hold you in place.
Where you live from also determines the voice you recognize as your master. One voice is spirit and truth; the other is spirit and deception. There are many access points into the temple, the main entrance being your mind. I must be granted access to take My throne within your heart and will remain as long as you embrace Me as your own; the enemy cannot enter unless you grant him access by choosing the world, by choosing the fleshly perspective, over hearing what I’m saying.
To eradicate the absence of light, you must first recognize that you are in the darkness. Sadly, this is where most people exist. The illusion of intimacy has replaced personally knowing Me. The counterfeit Jesus stands before the masses, speaking words directly into the pride of man, effectively keeping their eyes, hearts, and minds blinded from seeing the true Son of God. Where there is no Jesus there is no light, hence the aroma of rotting flesh that is present in most churches today.
Which cathedrals are you identifying with, My child?
You see, if you’re looking at the outward appearance, seeing the polished cup, the inner temple cannot appear the same. This is the very reason you suffer…you’ve lost sight of what really matters. When what matters to you takes precedence over what matters to Me, you cannot go deeper into the heart of God because you will not hear the voice of God. I’m speaking to every single child but very few are hearing a single word! The pain persists because you try to find what only I can provide.
How much will you strive for what only I can do through you?
Until you grant Me authority to be your King, you serve another god. The comfort of deniability will keep most right where they are, away from the truth, away from Me. The notion of religious independence, being different from what you see, keeps you from seeing Me. All I want is for you to let go of the standards you’ve placed upon yourself or the standards that others have placed upon you, making them your own. You were created for a purpose. You were created to follow. It’s the freedom of expression that grips you so tightly, wanting desperately to be seen and heard. Deep down, every person wants to be noticed. Every person wants to feel appreciated, wants to experience love and to give love away. True love cannot be given to another when you wish to receive something in return. The power of the past cannot be understated, especially when you’re confronted with the decision to become who the world made you to be or who I’ve created you to be.
I want you to stop looking for answers that only I can provide. It’s the thoughts a man acts upon that proves what is most important, for entertaining lower frequencies steals his identity in Christ. The more you succumb to fleshly pleasures, which includes reducing God to the vision of your wayward mind, the more distant the voice of the Beloved becomes. I want you to live for sensitivity to My Spirit. This is what makes you look more like Jesus.
If you aren’t willing to be a bride to My Son, what are you willing to be?
Unfortunately, the answers vary from believer to believer. It’s custom for the world to become something meaningful in its own eyes whereas My children should only see the world through the eyes of their Savior. Who you become is fully reliant upon what God is doing through you. The more you live for yourself, even if in My name, the more you are exposed for the idolatrous backslider you’ve become.
If I’m not the true voice you’re discerning, how can you know what My will is?
I don’t want you to guess what I want…I want you to have no doubt because you know exactly what I want.
Even in moments where you’re not hearing quite as clearly, are you holding fast to the promise that, as your Father’s child, your patience will allow Me to draw you ever nearer to Me?
Do you really know what it takes to be My child?
Nothing. Just stop trying to be anything and just come to where I am. It’s as simple as being here with Me and refusing to leave. Then, when you are faced with looming darkness, return to the place you know so well. When you live from the secret place, you know who you are because you know who I am. It’s when you venture out on your own that you grant the enemy access to the inner temple once again. Renovation cannot resume until you allow Me to expose that which is intentionally blocking you from discerning My voice. If you remain humble to the lead of the lower frequencies, how can you embrace My kingdom from within. Guard your temple with all that you’ve got…by giving Me all that you’ve got and letting Me have control of your life. I want to renovate, build up, and restore what has been broken or torn down. The condition of the soul is what matters to Me. I want you to let what I’m about to say penetrate you to the deepest parts…you are not responsible for restoring your soul.
Did you hear that, My child?
You are not required to bear this burden. This is what Jesus died for and what you have also died for. You have been resurrected to new life but you have to take authority of who you are by giving authority to Me. Your life is not your own.
Who are you to say who I am without Me telling you?
This is the issue with so many people today: the definition of who I am is spoken with certainty from the lips of people who don’t even know who they are. This is the definition of insanity.
If you believe yourself to be one person but have mistaken who you are for what the wrong person has told you, are you any closer to your true identity?
This is where you must stop pretending that you have illumination that will bring you into My eternal kingdom. If you’re not following the voice of the Head Shepherd, you’ve been led astray by wolves who are hungry for another meal. Tonight, your life may be required of you. If you are found defenseless against the wickedness of those who surround you, you still have yet to discover your true identity. This is why you’ve found yourself unprotected against the attacks of the enemy. In reality, if you’re defenseless, you don’t know Me.
How could you find escape if you cannot see the hedge of protection that is all around you?
If you cannot see the angels on the mountaintops, awaiting command, then you are living in the darkness of self preservation. I will not preserve that which will not see salvation as coming through Me. Many will say that I am their salvation but few will actually live in the one who gave His life for them.
Who are you to say that you know Me if you won’t allow Me to show you who I am?
Jesus tells you that you must hear and do what you see your Father doing but most people have no idea what this looks like in practice, nor do they believe it’s possible. If you won’t allow Me to be who I am because you’ve been taught something different, then modern day Phariseeism proves that the mind of man is the ultimate weapon against spirit led living. A Pharisee is one who sees the physical solution to the problems of the world, allowing self to discern the solution rather than God. Such people worship the idol of knowledge and cannot see the plank within their own eyes. One who worships knowledge cannot live from the spirit, nor can such a person know the beat of My heart. This is what grieves My heart: to see what I’ve created, to whom I’ve granted free will, seeing themselves as the god who is worthy of praise and adoration. Even though most would never admit such as being true, to live life on your own terms in the name of God, proves that in your eyes you are the one who rules your own universe.
Where is there room for Me in such a self-centered life?
Even if it’s in My name, what good is it for a man to lose his soul but profit the world?
If I’m not everything, there is always something else that is more important to you. I spoke you into being. I gave you breath. I plotted out your life, each moment planned with utmost scrutiny. And you want to assume command of what was never yours to begin with? This is the definition of pride. A man who plays god but claims to live in union with the one true God, rather than living in intimacy with the Father.
From Father to son, Father to daughter, would I call Myself your Daddy if I didn’t want you here with Me?
The best way to let go of what keeps you from feeling My embrace is to look at Me and allow Me to dissolve all that keeps you from being here with Me. It’s up to you. Who you serve can either bring joy and peace or keep you from it. My child, exactly who is it that you serve?
