Father

Read – John 10:30-36
Scripture: “I and the Father are one (John 10:30).”

Denial: “There is no separation between me and God.”

Affirmation: “I AM one with God and my good.”

Most of Jesus’ prayers began with the word, Father. As highlighted in today’s reading, the Jews of his day did not claim God as their father because of the implications of fatherhood. They understood
the goal of fatherhood to be for the child to become equal to or greater than the parent. They felt that it was blasphemous for Jesus to call God his father; therefore, they wanted to stone him and kill
him. Jesus’ relationship with God superseded the religious rituals and dogma of the Jews.
You are both human and divine. As such, your divinity comes from our Father, Jehovah, and your humanity comes from our mother, earth (Genesis 1:26-28, Genesis 2:7). God is always your Father, and
nothing will ever change that.

You are a divine idea that originated in the mind of God. When you pray, Our Father, you are speaking of your paternity and divine connection with everyone and everything in the Universe. You are
personalizing the Kingdom Principle of Divine Nature, owning the idea that your origination point is God, and how you came to this earth is divine.

Jesus, our Perfect Pattern, realized his oneness with God and his oneness with good. He knew that there was no separation between God and him and he boldly declared it. You have that same unity with God, and nothing can separate you from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus (Romans 8:35-39). God abides in you, and you abide in God (John 15:7). You have full and complete access to all that God is and all the good that the universe has and holds for you. Jesus prayed that his disciples recognize their oneness with God, good, and one another (John 17:1-17).

Reflection Question: How can you manifest, maintain, and
multiply your oneness with God?

Refocus Your Faith: How to Overcome Distraction, Disappointment, and Discouragement

  Refocus Your Faith: How to Overcome Distraction, Disappointment, and Discouragement "For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision has any value. The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love."   Galatians 5:6 (KSB)    With everything going on around us, it's easy to feel lost. Distractions come quickly, disappointments pile up, and discouragement sneaks in. We all face these moments. But even when we get off track, there is a way back and that path is through our faith, principles, and core values.  When you live your life anchored in principles, it gives you a compass for when the road gets unclear. Knowing your vision, your mission, and your core values makes it easier to realign when life feels out of control. But if you don’t know who you are, how can you get back to being your best self? If you don’t know what you stand on, what can you stand up on after a fall?    Clarity of purpose keeps you ...

  Why Me? God’s Glory (Romans 8:18) Why? That's a question often in our Souls. Why is this happening to me? Why am I having this experience? Why am I facing this health challenge? There's an answer! Why am I having these relationship challenges? There’s an answer, and it’s the same one. Why am I having this financial challenge? There’s an answer! There’s an answer to every question in your Soul, and the answer is glory. The reason for every experience in your life is so that God can get the glory. The purpose of all our challenges is not to bring us down but to transform us and bring glory to God.

So God can get the...

There’s a Grace on Your Life

  There’s a Grace on Your Life "By grace you have been saved, through faith and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God."    Ephesians 2:8 (KSB)    In Ephesians chapter 2, one word stands out repeatedly: grace . But what is grace? Grace is God’s unmerited favor, His love poured out on us, not based on anything we've done or failed to do. It’s not about what we think or don’t think. It’s simply a gift. A beautiful, divine surprise.  Imagine receiving an unexpected bonus at work, you did your job, and suddenly you're given more than you earned. That’s grace. It comes when you least expect it and fills you with joy and wonder. This is how God extends His grace freely, abundantly, and lovingly.  Throughout Ephesians 2, Paul highlights how grace is woven into our salvation. “By grace you are saved” means you didn’t do it yourself. Salvation is the awakening in your spirit to the truth that  you are God's beloved .   ...
