My Temple On Earth
You are My temple on Earth.  Your being is designed with the same components as My original temple in Heaven.  You have a physical building . . . your body.  You have life in the outer court . . . your exterior life in which you interact with the world.  Your mind is a part of exterior, outer court life.  You have inner rooms within your temple. The first room is the altar. This is your will.

  • Romans 12:1 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

6-2
The fragrance of True Love
With your will, you can make sacrifices all day, every day, that send holy fragrances to fill Heaven. This is not just symbolic. Every sacrifice you make on the altar of your will truly fills Heaven with a literal sweet fragrance. It is the fragrance of True Love, willingness to die for Me, willingness to leave behind all others and follow Me.

  • Philippians 2:17 . . . the sacrifice and service of your faith
  • Philippians 4:18 I seek the fruit that abounds to your account. . . I am full, having received from Epaphroditus the things sent from you, a sweet-smelling aroma, an acceptable sacrifice, well pleasing to God.

6-3
The altar of your will
The altar of your will is sacred. It is very serious. How often this altar is used for sacred work is up to you. Every sacrifice you make on your altar is recorded for all eternity. Only while you are in your temple on Earth can you make these sacrifices. Now is your chance to use the altar of your will. Do not miss out or you will have regrets. You can make many sacrifices daily.

  • Philippians 3:7-8 But what things were gain to me, these I have counted loss for Christ. Yet indeed I also count all things loss for the excellence of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them as rubbish, that I may gain Christ and be found in Him, not having my own righteousness, which is from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which is from God by faith; that I may know Him and the power of His resurrection, and the fellowship of His sufferings, being conformed to His death

6-4
Your spirit . . . the Holy of Holies
There is a most holy inner room within your temple. It is the Holy of Holies. It is your spirit. That is the place of intimacy with Me. It is here that you can first encounter My Presence, which is full of mercy and Love for you. The way to enter this room is by using your will or desire to sacrificially leave the outer court or exterior life and enter deep within your being.

  • Hebrews 10:19-20 Therefore, brethren, having boldness to enter the Holiest by the blood of Jesus, by a new and living way which He consecrated for us, through the veil, that is, His flesh . . .

6-5
No one else is allowed
You cannot take anyone with you into this place. It is for you and Me alone. Once inside the Holy of Holies, you will be enveloped by My Glory which is My Presence. I will fill you with My peace. Remain still and quiet while I heal you and wash you with Love. How long you remain within Our Secret Place is up to you. You can live there. You can make sacrifices on the altar while in our Secret Place. You can serve those in exterior life, the outer courts, while remaining in My Presence.

  • Hebrews 9:24 For Christ has not entered the holy places made with hands, which are copies of the true, but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us

6-6
Enter through the altar of your will
The Holy of Holies is My Garden of Eden I placed within you. Here We will fellowship in intimacy together. Here you will hear Me speaking to you. Here you will experience My mercy and great Love for you. Enter through the altar of your will.

  • Ephesians 2:19-22So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints, and are of God’s household, having been built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus Himself being the corner stone, in whom the whole building, being fitted together, is growing into a holy temple in the Lord, in whom you also are being built together into a dwelling of God in the Spirit.
  • Revelation 3:20 Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and will dine with him, and he with Me.

6-7
How do you enter in?
You will not be the first to enter your holy Secret Place within you.  You have an elder Brother Who sacrificed Himself and entered before you. His sacrifice opened the door for you to walk through. He is there still. My Holy Spirit also came before you. Holy Spirit is with you wherever you go. Holy Spirit will guide you.

John 14:6 Jesus said . . . I Am the Way, the Truth, and the Life . . .

6-8
Desire for idols brings pain
I cannot relieve the pain you feel from your idols. The relationships and things of Earth that you value so much will come and go. The pain you feel when you lose them indicates your level of worship of them. The desire for your idols will come at a price . . . pain. I can only relieve pain that comes from sacrificing to and worshiping Me. Pain always accompanies love . . . whether it is love of self or Love of Me.

  • 1 Corinthians 10:20 But I say that the things which the people sacrifice, they sacrifice to demons, and not to God, and I don’t desire that you would have communion with demons.

And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. On these two commandments depend all the Law and the Prophets.
  • 1 Corinthians 10:13 No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.

6-9
The only True cure for pain . . .
There is a cure for the pain from loving something or someone other than Me . . . give all your Love to only Me. As you voluntarily make your world so small that it includes only you and Me, the pain of living in a large world that holds others will end.

  • 1 John 4:4 You are from God, little children, and have overcome them; because greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world.

6-10
I Am the ultimate “pain reliever.”
When the world around you allows evil to attack you and cause you pain because you are Mine, I will show you how I Am the ultimate “pain reliever.” I know how to heal you when you are wholly Mine and evil hates you and hurts you.  You will know My comfort, even My exquisite Presence, flowing through your spirit when you are in holy pain. My “pain reliever” is strong enough to carry you through. The side effects are more intimacy and sweet memories of My faithful wonders for you.

  • 2 Thessaonians 2:16-17 Now may our Lord Jesus Christ Himself and God our Father, who has loved us and given us eternal comfort and good hope by grace, 17comfort and strengthen your hearts in every good work and word.

The Only Source of True Joy
When the world or relationships are the source of your laughter and joy, they will end in pain.

  • Matthew 6:33 But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.
  • Colossians 3:1-4 If then you have been raised with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth. For you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. When Christ who is your life appears, then you also will appear with him in glory

6-13
Pray for suffering
When you pray for another, pray that they will have endurance for the pain of suffering caused by the evil one, if they have given up all idols. Do not pray that the ones who suffer from losing their idols would regain the idols.  Pray that My Will is done instead.

  • James 1:2-4 Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters,whenever you face trials of many kinds, 3 because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. 4 Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.
  • Romans 5:3-4 Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope.
  • Hebrews 12:6 The Lord disciplines the one he loves, and chastises every son whom he receives.

6-14
Idols . . . die to them, not for them.
When someone dies of a broken heart, then they have died of loving someone other than Me. This is a slow and painful death. I want to save you from dying for your idols. Die to them, not for them. To die is to separate. Separate your self, your will, your desire from all others. Give your heart only to Me. When you die for Me, you will find out what it is to truly be alive. Then idols will have no effect on you.

  • Matthew 22:37-40 And he said to him, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the great and first commandment. And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. On these two commandments depend all the Law and the Prophets.
  • Matthew 19:29 29 And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or children or lands, for my name’s sake, will receive a hundredfold and will inherit eternal life.
  • Matthew 10:34 Do not think that I have come to bring peace upon the earth; I have not come to bring peace, but a sword.35 For I have come to part asunder a man from his father, and a daughter from her mother, and a newly married wife from her mother-in-law—36 And a man’s foes will be they of his own household 37 He who loves [and takes more pleasure in] father or mother more than [in] Me is not worthy of Me; and he who loves [and takes more pleasure in] son or daughter more than [in] Me is not worthy of Me

6-15
You are just what I wanted!

6-16
The ecstasy of My Presence within you
Storms with high winds, lightening, and rain drive people indoors. Let the political, economic, relational, and emotional storms drive you deeper into the interior of your temple with Me. Then you will be thankful for the storm as you receive the ecstasy of My Presence within you. Shut the door to exterior life.  You must come in alone. I Am your shelter in the storm.

  • Psalm 61:2-4 From the end of the earth I will cry to You, When my heart is overwhelmed; lead me to the Rock that is higher than I. For You have been a  shelter for me, a strong tower from the enemy. I will abide in Your tabernacle forever; I will trust in the shelter of Your wings.

6-17
I Am your friend
You must know that I Love you. When you understand how much I Love you, then you will not be uncomfortable with Me. You will approach Me knowing I Am your friend.

  • Hebrews 4:16 Let us then approach God’s throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.
  • 1 John 4:18 There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.

How do you identify yourself?

  • John 21:7 Then the disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, “It is the Lord!”
  • 1 John 3:1 See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are!

  • John 7:38 Anyone who believes in me may come and drink! For the Scriptures declare, ‘Rivers of living water will flow from his heart.

6-21
No substitute for My Living Water
There is no substitute for My Living Water on Earth. Turn from all distractions so you can drink from Me. Desire My Water. It is real . . .  not a concept. Ask Me.

  • John 7:39 “He who believes in Me, as the Scripture said, ‘From his innermost being will flow rivers of living water.'” 39 But this He spoke of the Spirit, whom those who believed in Him were to receive; for the Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus was not yet glorified.

  • 1 Peter 1:6 In this you greatly rejoice, even though now for a little while, if necessary, you have been distressed by various trials, 7 so that the proof of your faith, being more precious than gold which is perishable, even though tested by fire, may be found to result in praise and glory and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ . . .

6-25
Fight for Me?
The more two lovers fight for each other, the more their love and commitment to each other grows. Will you fight against your self for Me? Will you use your will to fight against your own will for Me? Fight for Me. Do not grow weary. I Am here to help you.  It is a good fight.

  • 2 Timothy 4:7-8 I have fought a good fight; I have finished the course; I have kept the faith.  Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness

The Worthy Fight
Every worthy fight requires patience and endurance. One victory soon proves to only be training for the next battle. Continue fighting.  You will eventually reach to the top of those Heavenly stairs which Jacob saw. Keep climbing.

  • 1 Timothy 6:11 Pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, steadfastness, gentleness. 12 Fight the good fight of the faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called and about which you made the good confession in the presence of many witnesses.

Trust My Plan . . . . Like Abraham
Do not worry about what to say or do. I will give it all to you at the moment you need it. Do not ask for the plan ahead of time. Follow Me . . . like Abraham.

  • Matthew 10:19-20 . . . take no thought how or what you shall speak; for it shall be given to you in that same hour what you shall speak. For it is not you that speaks, but the Spirit of your Father Who speaks in you.

Like a Thick Fog
Give Me the freedom to cultivate silence within you. The silence of Our togetherness can swallow and envelope your spirit like a thick fog which blots out the ugly, stress-filled surroundings. Walk through your day enveloped in My stillness and silence.

  • Ecclesiastes 3:1,7 To everything there is a season . . . a time to keep silence
