TITLE: Understanding Silence

THESIS: God works in the Silence.

Scripture: Ezekiel 37:1-10 

1 The hand of the Lord was upon me, and carried me out in the spirit of the Lord, and set me down in the midst of the valley which was full of bones,

2 And caused me to pass by them round about: and, behold, there were very many in the open valley; and, lo, they were very dry.

3 And he said unto me, Son of man, can these bones live? And I answered, O Lord God, thou knowest.

4 Again he said unto me, Prophesy upon these bones, and say unto them, O ye dry bones, hear the word of the Lord.

5 Thus saith the Lord God unto these bones; Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and ye shall live:

6 And I will lay sinews upon you, and will bring up flesh upon you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and ye shall live; and ye shall know that I am the Lord.

7 So I prophesied as I was commanded: and as I prophesied, there was a noise, and behold a shaking, and the bones came together, bone to his bone.

8 And when I beheld, lo, the sinews and the flesh came up upon them, and the skin covered them above: but there was no breath in them.

9 Then said he unto me, Prophesy unto the wind, prophesy, son of man, and say to the wind, Thus saith the Lord God; Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe upon these slain, that they may live.

10 So I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath came into them, and they lived, and stood up upon their feet, an exceeding great army.

Point #1 

Be the observer.

Point #2

Point #3

TITLE: Get Out the Gutter

“God can’t lift you out of the gutter. For your in-the-gutter experience is your self-definition at this time. But you can get out of the gutter when you begin to think out-of-the-gutter thoughts.” Page 49

THESIS: ”Do not be conformed to this world but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.” Romans 12:2

Highlights from the Text

“Prayer is an experience of our own self-potential.” Page 23

“We do not really pray to God, rather we pray from a consciousness of God.” Page 53

SCRIPTURE: John 11:37-44 NKJV

37 And some of them said, “Could not this Man, who opened the eyes of the blind, also have kept this man from dying?” 38 Then Jesus, again groaning in Himself, came to the tomb. It was a cave, and a stone lay against it. 39 Jesus said, “Take away the stone.” Martha, the sister of him who was dead, said to Him, “Lord, by this time there is a stench, for he has been dead four days.” 40 Jesus said to her, “Did I not say to you that if you would believe you would see the glory of God?” 41 Then they took away the stone [d]from the place where the dead man was lying. And Jesus lifted up His eyes and said, “Father, I thank You that You have heard Me. 42 And I know that You always hear Me, but because of the people who are standing by I said this, that they may believe that You sent Me.” 43 Now when He had said these things, He cried with a loud voice, “Lazarus, come forth!” 44 And he who had died came out bound hand and foot with graveclothes, and his face was wrapped with a cloth. Jesus said to them, “Loose him, and let him go.”

TITLE: Wake Up!

THESIS: Failure to do wrong is not necessarily doing right.

SCRIPTURE: Luke 15:11-32

Then he said: “A certain man had two sons. And the younger of them said to his father, ‘Father, give me the portion of good that falls to me.’ So he divided to them his livelihood. And not many days after, the younger son gathered all together, journeyed to a far country, and there wasted his possessions with prodigal living. But when he had spent all, there arose a severe famine in that land, and he began to be in want. Then he went and joined himself to a citizen of that country, and he sent him into his fields to feed swine. And he would gladly have filled his stomach with the pods that the swine ate, and no one gave him anything. “But when he came to himself, he said, ‘How many of my father’s hired servants have bread enough to spare, and I perish with hunger! I will arise and go to my father, and will say to him, “Father, I have sinned against heaven and before you, and I am no longer worthy to be called your son. Make me like one of your hired servants.'”

“And he arose and came to his father. But when he was still a great way off, his father saw him and had compassion, and ran and fell on his neck and kissed him. And the son said to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against heaven and in your sight, and am no longer worthy to be called your son.’ “But the father said to his servants, ‘Bring out the best robe and put it on him, and put a ring on his hand and sandals on his feet. And bring the fatted calf here and kill it, and let us eat and be merry; for this was my son was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.’ And they began to be merry.

“Now his older son was in the field. And as he came and drew near to the house, he heard music and dancing. So he called one of the servants and asked what these things meant. And he said to him, ‘Your brother has come, and because he has received him safe and sound, your father has killed the fatted calf.’ “But he was angry and would not go in. Therefore his father came out and pleaded with him. So he answered and said to his father, ‘Lo, these many years I have been serving you; I never transgressed your commandment at any time; and yet you never gave me a young goat, that I might make merry with my friends. But as soon as this son of yours came, who has devoured your livelihood with harlots, you killed the fatted calf for him.’ “And he said to him, ‘Son, you are always with me, and all that I have is yours. It was right that we should make merry and be glad, for your brother was dead and is alive again, and was lost and is found.'”

Sermon Title: Kingdom Key to Life – Balance 

Scripture: Matthew 16:19 “I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven”

What are the Keys to the Kingdom?

Kingdom Keys are ways of understanding that unlock the mysteries of the Kingdom of God. Kingdom Keys are a theological approach to controversial issues that distinguish the Kingdom from the world and the church. The 12 Keys to the Kingdom are based on Jesus’ Parables about the Kingdom and his general teachings. Each key gives polar opposites and shows how to bring balance in our lives. These things that Jesus talked about seemed contradictory. They are not. They are extremes on a continuum.

The Kingdom Key to Life is to find your balance.

Week 1 – Our Perfect Pattern – Jesus the Christ
Day 1: Balancing Being & Birth
Day 2: Balancing Awareness & Adolescence
Day 3: Balancing Learning & Teaching
Day 4: Balancing Temptation & Truth
Day 5: Balancing Time Alone & Time with Others
Day 6: Balancing Ministry & Family
Day 7: Balancing Discipleship & FriendshipHOW?

Think, feel, speak, act and react according to the perfect pattern!

Sermon Title: The Four Spiritual Laws of Prosperity

Sermon Thesis: Vessels for Your Prosperity – Law #2: Setting Goals

Scripture: 2 Corinthians 9:8

And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that having all sufficiency in all things at all times, you may abound in every good work. (ESV)

And God is able to provide you with every blessing in abundance, so that by always having enough of everything, you may share abundantly in every good work. (NRSV)

What is Prosperity?

  • A vitally alive body that provides a comfortable home for the spiritual beings that we are
  • Relationships that are satisfying, nurturing, and that work all the time.
  • Work that we love so much that it’s not work, it’s play.
  • All the money you can spend.

Spiritual Laws

Spiritual Law #1: First, you must tithe faithfully on every dime you receive. Act like God is your all sufficiency in all things.

Spiritual Law #2: Set Goals Your dreams are the vessels to catch the abundant good that comes when you are in the flow.

Key Point: What is Directed Faith?

Having directed faith means having a heart-felt specific desire, coupled with a deep and abiding trust in the goodness and generosity of God, and therein lies the magic and power of setting our goals. (Pg 91-92)

Scripture: Mark 11:23-25

Truly I tell you, if you say to this mountain, ‘Be taken up and thrown into the sea,’ and if you do not doubt in your heart but believe that what you say will come to pass, it will be done for you.

So I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours. (NRSV)

Elements of Goal Setting

  • #1 Cast aside your limitations
  • #2 Open yourself up to possibility
  • #3 Be Specific

Your Soul Work

  • Write a list of what you desire to have, do and be. Don’t judge. Don’t be practical.
  • Read the list and put a start next to your top 5 or 12.
  • Choose ONE or TWO – What changes might you need to make to achieve the goal?
  • Choose the date you desire to achieve your goal.
  • Add it to your daily routine (Read it 3x in morning and evening. Act like it’s done)

Jun 03, 2023 – TODAY IS UNCONDITIONED BY THE PAST 

JUNE 3   

TODAY IS UNCONDITIONED BY THE PAST   

“Teach men that each generation begins the world afresh, in perfect freedom; that the present is not the prisoner of the past, but that today holds captive all the yesterdays, to judge, to accept, to reject their teachings, as they are shown by its own morning sun.” 

Emerson

The Infinite Mind being eternal is not concerned with past, present nor future.  It knows me as a timeless being.  It offers to me all that It is, and never frowns at my lack of acceptance.  In a timeless God I allow my human thinking to become aged by experience, and then my complaints are many, and my excuses are profuse.  I use the past to explain the limitations of the present, and I fail to realize that only my acceptance of the past gives it power.  I now free my thinking from all past patterns and step forth this day as a new creature in Christ.  Too long have my alibis ensnared me.  They are as nothing when I declare the Truth.

I am of God’s generation.  My habitation is eternity, and my continuity is beyond question.  Time is my own measurement, and God knows only the Now.  I accept myself as free from the past, creative in the present and rejoicing in the future.  I inherit the ideas of God, and I dispense them with order and efficiency.  Fresh impulses come to me, and new experiences unfold before me.  God’s man is never of the past, for God knows no past.  God’s man is the man of the hour, the moment, the split second.  I am that man now.  Unconditioned by disease, I am health.  The world does not determine my prosperity, I alone determine it.  God is all that I am.

The sun of Truth shines in my world and reveals the good that is at hand.  Gone are all false leanings on family, heritage and background.  I am today what I am because of my consciousness.  Background is merely a record, it is never a fact.  Born of the Spirit, I am the Spirit and no man can convince me otherwise.  I rejoice in the Now and live in the present, finding God in every moment.

Jun 02, 2023 – I AM GOD’S MIND MADE VISIBLE

JUNE 2        

I AM GOD’S MIND MADE VISIBLE

“The life of the soul in conscious union with the infinite shall be for thee the only real existence.” 

Emerson

I live in God, the one Mind, the one Principle and the one Truth.  Body, world and material conditions are secondary to my consciousness, which is forever active in God’s Mind.  I am a mental being in a universe of mind-action, and the Law of Mind is mine to use in ways of righteousness and in ways of peace.  One with the Infinite I walk the pavements of time untouched by error and upheld by the Spirit.  From me proceeds the good, and to me comes the divine.  All of Life is now offering Itself to me, and I drink deeply of its healing waters.  My thirst for Truth is quenched, as I realize the Truth of myself as God made visible. 

The material world is not my prison, and my work is not my supply. I am the conscious director of my life, and destiny depends upon me for its fulfillment.  I am the creator of circumstances, not their victim.  I sow the good and reap the plenty.  I give out that which is of God and take in that which is of good report.  One with His perfect mind I rejoice in thinking the ever-expanding Idea of Truth.  Time and space are my tools, and thought is my only creative power.  Unbound and free, I live with ease in my knowledge of God and of His eternal presence in my fellowman.  Duality erased is unity made manifest.  My one good is God, and my one action is Good.

I walk as a person of Power.  I act as a person of Love.  I speak as the Voice of Truth.  I live as an example of what God can do in man.  Within me there is peace and around me there is right action.  The Almighty is my strength and I never fail my highest ideal.  True to all that God expects me to be, I live in right relationships with all whom I meet.  I am a blessed experience to my friends, co-workers and family.  God is visible in all that I do, say or think.  Today is my opportunity to reveal my real Self.

Jun 01, 2023 – I AM TRUE TO MY HIGHEST PRINCIPLES

JUNE 1     

I AM TRUE TO MY HIGHEST PRINCIPLES   

“Thou shalt not profess that which thou dost not believe.  Thou shalt not heed the voice of man when it agrees not with the voice of God in thine own soul.” 

Emerson

To profess is easy, to practice is not easy.  All people proclaim their belief in God, but they rely on material help in every problem and pray as a last resort.  I now take my stand with myself.  I have no one other with whom to deal.  I am in my own world, and I now place God at the center and know that good appears at the circumference.  I refuse to declare my faith in God and still continue in my old material patterns of behavior. Today, the Lord becomes my physician, my lawyer, my counselor and my co-worker.  I lean not on my own understanding; I depend on Him who projected me as His own.  I shout from the housetops my own divinity.  I cry out to all, my dependence on the indwelling Spirit.

I am not a metaphysician in name only, I practice when I believe.  I pray my way out of every problem, and prove God in every experience.  The confines of my thinking extend to include the good of all.  I truly practice the Brotherhood of Man.  I see each soul as God sees him, and declare that his place in my life is one of blessing.  I am not under the material influence of nations, economic levels, nor world conditions.  I am an independent creation of a perfect Mind living in the atmosphere of my own consciousness.  What I decree in mind is my experience in the world.  I know but one Standard and one Principle – the Truth.  To these I dedicate my thought, my motives and my responses.

Within me is the true Mind of the Spirit.  It invites me to partake of Its ideas, and to prosper in all my ways.  It whispers thoughts that are contrary to human opinions and worldly wisdom.  But, I listen to the inner Wisdom and act in accordance with It.  No man can dissuade me, no group can alarm me.  I know the right, and I do the right.  I am true to my highest knowledge of God and to my greatest vision of Spiritual Man.  I am undaunted by others; I am true to my belief.

May 31, 2023 – TODAY I ENTER INTO MY KINGDOM OF JOY, INTO MY INHERITANCE OF HAPPINESS

MAY 31   

TODAY I ENTER INTO MY KINGDOM OF JOY, INTO MY INHERITANCE OF HAPPINESS

Thou wilt show me the path of life: in thy presence is fullness of joy: at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore. 

Psalm 16:11

James Whitcomb Riley said: “As it’s give me to perceive, I most certainly believe, when a man’s glad plumb through, God’s pleased with him, same as you.”  Jesus said that he came that we might have more life, not less.  There is nothing in the thought of God that should produce sadness or depression; rather, it should be quite the reverse, because faith, conviction and love should give us such confidence and such a sense of security and faith in the good that our lives should run over with joy and we should indeed be able to sing: “Joy to the world, the Lord has come.”

Realizing that the Lord who is not far off but an inward, intimate Presence, closer to me than my very breath, I affirm that there is nothing in me that can doubt this Presence or limit the Power of Good.  There is nothing in me that can separate myself from the love of God, the joy of living, and the Law of Good.

I affirm that this Divine Presence is leading me on the pathway of peace.  It is directing my thoughts, my words and my actions into constructive channels of self-expression.  It is uniting me with others in love, in kindness and in consideration.  Therefore, today I accept the joy of life.  In gladness I recognize the Kingdom of God that is within me.  I know that today the Law of Good is bringing into my experience everything necessary to my happiness.  And knowing there can be no good to myself alone, for God is in all people, I affirm for others that which I accept for myself.

May 30, 2023 – NOTHING CAN GO FORTH FROM ME BUT GOODNESS, TRUTH, LOVE AND KINDNESS; THEREFORE NOTHING LESS THAN GOODNESS CAN COME BACK TO ME.

MAY 30  

NOTHING CAN GO FORTH FROM ME BUT GOODNESS, TRUTH, LOVE AND KINDNESS; THEREFORE NOTHING LESS THAN GOODNESS CAN COME BACK TO ME.

… If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us. 

I John 4:12

Every heart responds to the warmth of love.  Every mind yearns for its embrace and no life is complete without it.  Love really is the fulfillment of the Law of Good.  Love alone can heal the world and cause people to live together in unity and in peace.  Believing that love is the great lodestone of life and that love alone fulfills the Law of Good, quietly I say to myself:

I believe that God is Love.  I believe that Love is at the center of everything.  Therefore I accept Love as the healing power of life.  I permit Love to reach out from me to every person I meet.  I trust the guidance of Love because I believe It is the Power of Good in the universe.  I feel that Love is flowing through me to heal every situation I meet, to help every person I contact.  Love opens the way before me and makes it perfect, straight and glad.

Love forgives everything unlike itself; It purifies everything.  Love converts everything that seems commonplace into that which is wonderful.  Love converts weakness into strength, fear into faith.  Love is the all-conquering power of Spirit.  As a child walks in confidence with its parents, so I walk in confidence with Life.  As a child, through love, trusts its parents, so I put my whole trust in that Love which I feel to be everywhere present, within, around and through me – within, around and through all people.

May 29, 2023 – TODAY I FEEL THE ACTIVE POWER OF GOD IN EVERYTHING

MAY 29   

TODAY I FEEL THE ACTIVE POWER OF GOD IN EVERYTHING

One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all. 

Ephesians 4:6

The key thought for our meditation today is the idea that there is an active Presence of the creative Spirit in all our affairs – not something passive, but something that is moving in and through everything we do.  We should affirm that this Divine Presence is everywhere, that It is always active in, around and through us.

Believing that the Divine Spirit is at the center of everything and at the very center of my own physical being, I recognize this Presence harmoniously acting in every cell, every organ and every function of my physical body.  I praise It and bless It and recognize that It is doing Its work well and in harmony with Divine Love and Divine Life.  Recognizing this same Presence in everyone I meet, I salute the God in people and I know that as surely as I do this, the God in them will respond to the same Divine presence that is within me.  Therefore I love others and act in unison with them.

Recognizing the One Mind that governs everything, consciously I affirm that this same Intelligence is governing my affairs.  It is within me and around me at all times, directing, guiding, governing, controlling and leading me happily to the fulfillment of all good purposes.  Recognizing all nature as the handiwork of God, I see beauty in everything.  I am one with the wind and the wave, with sunshine and cloud, with everything that God has created.

May 28, 2022 – I USE DIVINE POWER IN PRACTICAL WAYS AND RIGHT ACTION PREVAILS IN MY AFFAIRS   

MAY 28    

I USE DIVINE POWER IN PRACTICAL WAYS AND RIGHT ACTION PREVAILS IN MY AFFAIRS   

… What things soever ye desire when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.   

Mark 11:24

There could be no more explicit technique for effective prayer than this laid down by the Master himself.  We actually are to believe that we already possess the object of our desire when we ask for it.  We are to accept it even as we believe in the harvest which follows the spring planting.  Therefore, every spring should be one of hope and every harvest one of fulfillment.  We must learn to accept the good we desire and affirm its presence in our experience, here and now.

Realizing that there is a Law of good that governs my affairs, I loose every thought of doubt, fear or uncertainty and accept the good that I desire, here and now.  Realizing that this Law of Good not only knows how to create, but must contain within Itself all the details of Its own creation.  I let go of every thought of outlining and accept the perfect answer today.  Feeling a deep sense of gratitude and joy because of this, I live enthusiastically and with calm and happy anticipation of more yet to come.  

Because there is no sense of strain in this, I relax in quiet contentment while at the same time realizing that what the law of Good does for me It must do through me.  I declare that I not only know what to do but I am impelled to act, to move objectively.  For this is not a dream I am entering into, or an escape from any present condition which is unhappy or unwhole.  This is really the act of fulfillment, the moving into a greater sphere of action and life with complete certainty, calm confidence and limitless trust.  Today everything in my experience shall be reanimated, reborn and increased.  Gladly I accept my good and place no limit on the Divine givingness.

May 27, 2023 – EVERY PART OF MY BODY IS IN HARMONY WITH THE LIVING SPIRIT WITHIN ME   

MAY 27   

EVERY PART OF MY BODY IS IN HARMONY WITH THE LIVING SPIRIT WITHIN ME   

… I am the Lord that healeth thee.  

  Exodus 15:26

Spiritual mind healing has long since passed the experimental stage.  We now know that we cannot tell where the body begins and the mind leaves off, and many of us believe that the actions, organs, and functions of the physical body really are activities of the Divine Intelligence within us.  To come to realize, then, that there is One Body, which is the Body of God, and which at the same time is our own body, is to indraw a greater spirit of Life. We should daily affirm that:

There is one Life, that Life is God, that Life is my life now.  Every organ, action and function of my physical body is in harmony with the Divine Life.  There is perfect circulation, perfect assimilation and perfect elimination.  If there is anything in me that does not belong, it is removed.  If there is anything that my physical being needs that it does not appear to have, it will be supplied.  My body is daily renewed after the image of perfection with which it must be held in the Mind of God.  “Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which art in heaven is perfect.”

I affirm that my body is the Body of God; it is a body of right ideas all working in harmony with each other.  The Life of the Spirit does circulate through it, the Law of the Spirit does govern it, the Love of the Spirit does sustain it.  Therefore I sleep in peace and wake in joy and live in the continual acceptance that life is good.  My whole experience is God.  My whole life is God in action.  For I am one with all Life and all Power.
