Intercession

It's really quite simple. Love somebody. 

Oh, I know that the expression takes various forms. I know that there is a real, tangible frequency involved. Yet, it really is that simple. 

The best description of intercession I've ever read comes from A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine L'Engle. 

Meg has lost her brother, Charles Wallace, to IT. IT is what I call the impossible. Charles Wallace has forgotten who he really is. He has no recollection of his own heart or being. He has behaved in hateful ways toward Meg and their father. His Reality has been hidden by impossibility. 

And Meg can only intercede. 

"She could stand there and she could love Charles Wallace. 

Her own Charles Wallace, the real Charles Wallace, the child for whom she had come back to Camazotz, to IT, the baby who was so much more than she was, and who was yet so utterly vulnerable. 

She could love Charles Wallace.

Charles. Charles, I love you. My baby brother who always takes care of me. Come back to me, Charles Wallace, come away from IT, come back, come home. I love you, Charles. Oh, Charles Wallace, I love you. 

Tears were streaming down her cheeks, but she was unaware of them. 

Now she was even able to look at him, at this animated thing that was not her own Charles Wallace at all. She was able to look and love. 

I love you. Charles Wallace, you are my darling and my dear and the light of my life and the treasure of my heart. I love you. I love you. I love you." (p.229) 

She loved him. She saw him for who he really was, not the impossible way he was behaving. And she simply loved him. 

It doesn't always work as quickly as it does in books and movies. Sometimes the Reality remains hidden for years as you faithfully love someone for who they really are. But I do believe that somewhere in the great infinite-eternal nature of existence, that Reality will manifest once again. And not only will you and the person for whom you have interceded see the Reality of their Nature once again, but you will have more love than ever before as you have invaded the impossible. You have led captivity captive. 

It's not hard to love someone when you can see who they really are. The Eyes of the Father and the Heart of the Father go hand-in-hand together. We will grow, as We remember, to love everyone and all things.

And Love remains. 

"And we have known and believed the love that God has for us. God is love, and he who abides in love abides in God, and God in him." ~1 John 4:16

Beyond Reality: It's So Much Bigger Than We Think

So many things have clicked tonight. As I go ever deeper into the Heart of the Father and allow Him to rearrange the way I have always seen the world, I find that it's much more complicated and yet at the same time much simpler than I've always thought. When Yahweh first started telling me that He is all that there is, I knew that didn't mean that He was evil or that He allowed, sanctioned, or took part in any of the myriad of horrors I've witnessed on the news, in the lives of those around me, or in my own life. It is not His Nature. It could never be. So, in order to understand, I separated the Reality of who He is from the illusion of who He isn't, and instead of judging what is and what isn't based on what I experience, I judged it based on His Nature. But Yahweh said, "The colors can only remain separate on the painter's palette. If you want to paint a world, you have to mix them together." As I ascended to this place of We, I found that...

The Trinity of Faith

It can be difficult to explain this revelation on a blog because every time I go to write something, I find something else I have to explain. This is one of the foundational elements in what I call "The Creator's Paradigm," which is the entire revelation that I have so far. Faith, like Yahweh, is a Trinity. It is the "substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." (Hebrews 11:1) It is the glue that holds creation together and the process by which all things are created. The word "evidence" has a root which means "seeing." The evidence of things not seen, therefore, means the "seeing of the unseen." It is also the substance, or tangible physical existence, of what you hope for. Generally what you hope for is something you've only seen in your mind or heart. We are created creators, partnering with Yahweh to create. Yahweh Himself uses this process to create all things, as we will see in a minute, however w...

Why Creation Isn't Waiting For You to Rule and Reign

There's this idea that creation is waiting for the sons of God to take their places and make the world what it needs to be, this idea that some day out there Yahweh will come back and take us to Heaven and reign from His Throne. Once we remember sovereignty and that we are One with Yahweh, we realize that we are the ones sitting on this throne with Yahweh. We also need to remember that time and eternity are One. Time is the instrument of Our growth, and We actually use it to grow eternity. Once we realize these two things, we can see that We are sovereign in our own lives and ruling and reigning from this throne right now. The instrument of Our dominion is Our choices. This is what Paul talked about in 1 Corinthians 3 where he talks about how we each choose what materials to build our lives with. Some choose jewels, some choose clay. I, as the sovereign in my own life, get to decide what materials to build my life with. However, I cannot judge another's life. As each of u...
