Our journeys will unite Us My bride
At the end of the ages you and I will have known suffering, waiting, toiling, and joy together. Therefore no part of our Hearts will be inaccessible to each other. Our common experiences will unite Us.

• 1 Corinthians 12:26-27 If one member suffers, all suffer together; if one member is honored, all rejoice together. Now you are the body of Christ and individually members of it.

• 2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come.
• Philippians 3:10-11 that I may know Him and the power of His resurrection and the fellowship of His sufferings, being conformed to His death; in order that I may attain to the resurrection from the dead.

4-2
Fighting to discipline of the mind
To discipline the mind is much more difficult than to discipline the body. To have more of Me you must discipline them both. It is a fight to the end.

• Galatians 2:20 I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me.
• Colossians 3:1 Therefore if you have been raised up with Christ, keep seeking the things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God.

4-3
Only notice what is good . . . Overlook all else
Cease trying to make those around you think the way you think. Humbly give honor to them, noticing what is good, overlooking all else. Serve them and you serve Me. Be compassionate. Pray sincerely for them. Then I will make you think the way I think.

• Luke 22: But not so with you. Rather, let the greatest among you become as the youngest, and the leader as one who serves. 27 For who is the greater, one who reclines at table or one who serves? Is it not the one who reclines at table? But I am among you as the one who serves.
• Matthew 9:36 When he saw the crowds, he had compassion for them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd.
• Ephesians 6:7 Serve wholeheartedly, as if you were serving the Lord, not people, 8 because you know that the Lord will reward each one for whatever good they do, whether they are slave or free.

4-4
I enable you to practice silence and kindness
Stop trying to make others agree with you. Be silent and give them all the kindness I enable you to give.

• 1 Corinthians 13:4 Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant 5 or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful

4-5
I enable you to serve
Ignore your feelings. I enable you to serve so do it. I enable you to see ways to show compassion so do it. I enable you to pray for them so do it.

• Mark 9:35 Sitting down, He called the twelve and said to them, “If anyone wants to be first, he shall be last of all and servant of all.”
• 1 Corinthians 13:7 Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

4-6
I enable you to end self-care    
Break the wall of self-care within you by ignoring your feelings.

• 1 Peter 2:20b-22 But if when you do good and suffer for it you endure, this is a gracious thing in the sight of God. 21For to this you have been called, because Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example, so that you might follow in his steps. 22He committed no sin, neither was deceit found in his mouth.

4-7
Desire Me? Desire obedience
Obedience does not need feelings. It only requires desire for Me.

• John 14:15 If you love Me, keep My commandments
• Romans 6:16 Do you not know that to whom you present yourselves slaves to obey, you are that one’s slaves whom you obey, whether of sin leading to death, or of obedience leading to righteousness?
• 2 Corinthians 10:5 casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ
• Galatians 5:22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law. 24And those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.  25 If we live by the Spirit, let us also keep in step with the Spirit. 26 Let us not become conceited, provoking one another, envying one another.

4-8
Will you chose Me more than these?
When someone steals from you, do not fight to recover what was taken, whether it was money, material things, job, or reputation. Why spend your days trying to recover what will perish? Spend your days with Me instead. Leave the rest of the world behind.

• 2 Corinthians 10:5  casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ
• Romans 6:16 Do you not know that to whom you present yourselves slaves to obey, you are that one’s slaves whom you obey, whether of sin leading to death, or of obedience leading to righteousness?

4-9
Will you fight for Our Love?
Why fight to have that which will come to an end? Fight for what you want to remain forever within you. . . faith, hope, and Love . . . especially Love . . . lots of Love.

• John 14:15 If you love Me, keep My commandments
• 1 Corinthians 13:13 So now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; but the greatest of these is love.

4-10
Will you make your home with Me and not these?
Life with Me is lived deep within your soul, where I Live. Make your Home with Me inside your spirit. Do not try to create a happy place for yourself in the outside world. Remain here, inside your soul, with Me. Here is your peaceful place. Here is where you and I spend Our earth days together.

• Luke 17:20 And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God comes not with observation: 21 Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.

4-11
Will you allow Me to use the bad to make you good?
I often use that which looks bad, feels bad, is bad . . . to bring about or birth within you that which is very good. Will you trust Me? Will you give Me that much freedom within your earth-life?

• James 1:2Consider it pure joy, my brothers, when you encounter trials of many kinds, 3because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. 4Allow perseverance to finish its work, so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.

4-12
Will you let Me make every decision for you?
Will you let Me make every decision for you? Ask Me about everything. Break the habit of consulting your own self. Ask Me about everything. I will answer when you really want My will.

• Romans 12:1  Therefore I urge you, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living and holy sacrifice, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service of worship.
• 1 John 5:14 This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us.

4-13
To love Me is to love My Will
If you Love and want My will then you Love and want Me. If you are  not concerned with My will then you are not concerned with Me. Ask Me about My will in every part of your day today.

• Hebrews 11:6 And without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is and that He is a rewarder of those who seek Him.

4-14
Will you blindly trust and follow Me?
Let me be your eyes and ears. Humbly recognize that you are blind an deaf. Follow My Words and understandings in your spirit like a physically blind and deaf person depends on his guide. Do not trust what you think you know. Count on your self to be wrong. I Love you!

• Galatians 2:20 I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me.

4-15
Will you give Me your pain?
Give to Me the gift of your pain. Tell Me that I Am worth this pain. This is a high form of worship . . . much higher worship than you have expressed before.

• 1 Peter 4:13 Instead, be very glad—for these trials make you partners with Christ in his suffering, so that you will have the wonderful joy of seeing his glory when it is revealed to all the world.
• Song of Solomon 5:7 7 The night watchmen found me as they made their rounds. They beat and bruised me and stripped off my veil, those watchmen on the walls.
• Hebrews 10:34 You suffered along with those who were thrown into jail, and when all you owned was taken from you, you accepted it with joy. You knew there were better things waiting for you that will last forever.
• 1 Peter 4:1 So then, since Christ suffered physical pain, you must arm yourselves with the same attitude he had, and be ready to suffer, too.

4-16
Will you suffer pain for Me?
There is no greater gift of worship or praise than your willingness to suffer the pains of daily crosses for Me. To give Me the freedom to send you into the fiery trials is to express True Love for Me. No other expression of love equals the validity of this.

• Mark 8:35 For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake and the gospel’s will save it.

4-17
Stopping a Civil War
A civil war is a house that is divided. Evil always fights both others and it’s own. I use evil to fight against evil like fighting fire with fire. When hearts are so hard that they resist gentle admonishment then the fiery pains of evil do the work of breaking. Once broken, then the Light of Truth can enter the heart. So do not be afraid when a civil war comes to your house. I fill all of Heaven and earth. I Am there with you.

• 1 Peter 1:7 Such trials show the proven character of your faith, which is much more valuable than gold — gold that is tested by fire, even though it is passing away — and will bring praise and glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed.

4-18
A house divided cannot stand
A house divided cannot stand. Evil devastates everything it touches. I did not come to bring peace between Light and darkness. When I created the Heavens and the earth, I separated Light from darkness from the very beginning. I Am still separating Light from darkness. Follow the Light no matter how much it hurts your eyes when you see the Truth about your own dark side. Walking in the Light will set you free. Pray for those who still walk in darkness. Release them into My Hand. Do not worry. Remain confident in My ways. I love you!

• Genesis 1:4 God saw that the light was good, and he separated the light from the darkness.
• Isaiah 9:2The people walking in darkness have seen a great light; on those living in the land of deep darkness a light has dawned.
• John 1:4 In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. 5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.
• John 12:46 I have come into the world as a light, so that no one who believes in me should stay in darkness.

4-20
Will you walk through walls with Me?
I tear down the walls. I walk thru the walls. There are no walls that can contain Me. I will use the walls that evil erects around you. Remember that you are  free because I Am with you. Remain deep inside the comforting walls of your inner self with Me. It is Our oasis with you. Together you and I will walk through many types of walls . . . including those that you built.

• John 20:19 On the evening of that day, the first day of the week, the doors being locked where the disciples were for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood among them and said to them, “Peace be with you.”

• Exodus 14:22 And the people of Israel went into the midst of the sea on dry ground, the waters being a wall to them on their right hand and on their left.

4-21

I will teach you how to walk through walls
Keep hungering and thirsting for Me. The more you want Me, the more you Will want My will no matter what the cost. The more you submit to My will the more you will walk through walls with Me. The more you let go and trust Me the more you will see Me tear down walls.

• Psalm 3:5-6 Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to Him, and He will make your paths straight.

4-22
How to tear down walls
A house that is divided will soon have all it’s walls destroyed. Then the house will be filled with Light. He who has ears to hear, let him hear. I love you!

• John 1:4 In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. 5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.
• John 12:46 I have come into the world as a light, so that no one who believes in me should stay in darkness.

4-23
Pure holiness is pure love
Pure holiness is nothing more than pure Love. Pure Love is absolute holiness. Where you see pure Love you see holiness. Love as I Love. Then you will be holy as I Am holy.

• Hebrews 12:14 Make every effort to live in peace with everyone and to be holy; without holiness no one will see the Lord.
• Romans 1:4 and who through the Spirit of holiness was appointed the Son of God in power by his resurrection from the dead: Jesus Christ our Lord.

4-24
All he wanted in this life
There was a man drowning in the sea. All that he wanted in this life was tossed to him. As he grabbed each one he was pulled downward by the weight.

• Mark 8: 36 For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world and forfeit his soul? 37For what can a man give in return for his soul?

Attached to her blood cord
There was a young bird who tried to fly but the shell from her birth was still attached to her tail.  . . . Ask The Spirit to give you ears to hear what The Spirit is saying.

• Ezekiel 16:4 And as for your birth, on the day you were born your cord was not cut, nor were you washed with water to cleanse you, nor rubbed with salt, nor wrapped in swaddling cloths.

4-26
Sacred Silence
A soul that is at rest cannot be a place of rebellion. A soul that is calm cannot be a soul that is drowning in despair. A soul that remains in Sacred Silence is a soul that trusts in Me.

• Psalm 46:10 Be still, and know that I am God.
• Psalm 131:2 But I have calmed and quieted myself, I am like a weaned child with its mother; like a weaned child I am content.

4-27
The quiet soul accepts my will
A soul that is still, quiet and at rest is a soul that has accepted My will and My ways, no matter how difficult the circumstances are.

• John 14:27 Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled; do not be afraid.

4-28
The quiet soul is not easily deceived
A soul that is still and quiet is a soul that is not easily deceived
