The experiences of life are such that you might be freed and unfold. You may consider some experiences as bad or good experiences; however, your experiences are beneficial when they are perceived to be the means to glorify God and elevate your soul. Your experiences are necessary to enlighten your mind and elevate your soul. Your experiences free your heart and heal your body of past karma. You must release negative thoughts, past hurts, disappointments, hate, and unforgiveness. Unforgiveness and mal-emotions cloud your heart and mind, preventing the connection you need to have with your soul and the Hierarchy of Heaven. Your negative emotions, frustrating feelings, and unforgiveness hinder your soul's unfoldment and human growth. Your failure to forgive creates unnecessary experiences that compound negatively, resulting in more mal-karma. Unforgiveness creates issues of health in the physical body. Forgive to stop these lower and ill perceptions from festering sickness in your body. Negative emotions register in the organs and systems of your body. Pray to be able to forgive others for the things done to you. Pray to forgive them for the times they excluded you. Fallen man has numerous failings, faults, and flaws. Empathy allows one to feel what another feels during hardships or joy. As Jesus released those, who crucified him, release all who have negatively wronged you. Learn the lessons of living through experiences and move forward to better states of being. Learn to reduce your debts and soften your karma with good deeds and patience. Understand that your experiences are manifestations of your rewards and debts. Forgiving others of their debts softens your karma. Forgive yourself for your errors and forgive yourself for the inclinations and the intentions wherein you cause others to foster negative perceptions or commit negative actions. They were actions based on fallen humanity's erroneous perceptions and contributed to the ignorance of the divine self. Applied the principles of forgiveness and love. Sweep from your mind, heart, and body all negative reactions. Negative actions create a negative energy that increases negativity. Paint new mental pictures to promote God's glory and your soul unfolding to live and have the full benefits from every experience. Read the 52nd Psalm each morning and the 51st Psalm at night.

Be very cautious in accepting and acting upon extreme positions. Opposites are not always in opposition to each other. Extreme materialistic and religious perceptions must be weighed and balanced with eternal or relative truth principles. Each extreme aspect is limited and contradicts the all-inclusive aspects of the Infinite. The absolute is inclusive of all which God has created, formed, and made. Extremism believes that only their perspectives are true, making other positions wrong. What is truly wrong with extremism is their positions are finite and temporal, not infinite or eternal. Extremism erroneously justifies selfishness, injustice, and many horrible positions, practices, policies, and propaganda. Their perception of needs and desires is limited to life's temporal and finite aspects. One person's medicine is another person's poison. Oppositions correctly perceived and rightly utilized complement, balance, and support each other. Opposites are necessary to maintain existence. The masculine and the feminine create offspring. Positives and negatives generate light and energy. Light and darkness are essential to various species and aspects of life. Heat and cold have their place in benefiting our existence; Evolution and involution are the cycles of every living thing in the material world; Birth and death are the doors to diverse realms of existence. It is not good or bad; the question is, is it beneficial, is it better, or will it result in balance, harmony, and beauty? Is it the best function or attribute for the circumstances and the conditions? Will it result in improvements? There are circumstances and situations wherein the masculine qualities are best suited, while other circumstances and conditions require that the feminine attributes be the prevailing principles applied. Both aspects noted as masculine or feminine is necessary for all manners of nature and humanity to be productive, foster growth, manifest life, generate energy and give life. To have a spiritual balance, the lower self must be conjoined with the higher self to attain the goal of unfolding. The conjoining of the masculine and feminine or the positive and negative must be organized in a manner where the creative results are beneficial, operating and functioning in harmony and unity. Review your positions; are they beneficial, balanced, harmonious, purposeful, and right in improving the circumstances and life? In doing so, we master the circumstances of existence. Care must be taken in the proper enlightenment to avoid divine principles being used in perverted manners. Wisdom and understanding are the best directors for intermingling and intermixing opposites. Read Psalm 28 this month.

Reverse your perceptions, to see what was good and beneficial comes from your adverse and negative experiences. Review your experiences to make certain that you have captured the fullness, as well as the essence of the lessons that you are to derive from your experiences. Experiences are engaging and if attentive you will see the forest in the midst of the trees. Experiences have taught many lessons that were not realized in another manner. Make sure you understand that the challenges strengthen you enabling you to see the need to improve yourself and know yourself. Experiences with others also demonstrate the need for others, individually and collectively to improve. We are all characters on the stage of life performing many roles at various times, under an array of situations. We are confronting the karma in which we ourselves created and we are learning our obligations (Dharma). Such obligations - the dharma and karma - the reaping or awarding of our previous acts are the challenges to be mastered and the mission to be accomplished. Dharma and karma are presented to us at various stages of our existence so that God’s divine presence in us, through us, and for us might be glorified. It is important to realize that our karma comes during moments when we have been developed to confront it. Our Dharma which is ‘the call’ of our existence or life purpose must also be accepted to rightly fulfill our life mission. Do not look back with a mind immersed in hate or resentment. To rectify your life, you are to repent. Repentance is when you are resolved to transform your life for the better. Repentance requires changing your thinking to improve your character and circumstances. Repentance necessitates being resolute in your will and actions. Through repentance, you will be able to reverse your path from the negative to fulfill the higher aspirations of your divine call from God. Realize God’s love and faithfulness are enabling you and empowering you to master and conquer those challenges; to recognize and realize your higher human and divine potentials. Look back to forgive and untie the cords that bind you to pains and foolish pleasures. Review your negative experiences, to free your soul and mind of notions of defeat, debasement, despair, doubt, or any other troubling perceptions of self. Free your soul so that God might be glorified. Read the 149th Psalm this month.

Devotion is significant to obtaining the right relationship with God. It is an evocation to the heavenly hierarchy to operate in a spiritual service. Devotion is meekness, which is the means to yield to the will of God. Meekness as form of devotion requires you to be open to being a vessel of God’s light, love, and power. Devotion expresses a realization of God as the creator and Father of all souls. Devotion brings you closer to God and magnifies the divine presence in the circumstances of your life. Devotion is being attentive to the divine presence in which you move and have your being. Through attentive devotion one discerns the operation of the invisible principles of the spirit in all that is manifested. Devotion is when one is aligned in every manner with the hierarchy of heaven. A devotee is one who is engaged and encompassed in the spiritual realms, though present in the material world. A devotee is one whose mind is steadfast on God. Devotion to truth increases one's understanding and expands one knowledge of the presence and perfecting power of wisdom and love. Being a true devotee will enable and empower you to be in the holy presence of the Shekinah. True devotion is vital to every sacred service. Devotion is the means to be in constant prayer throughout the day. Praying without ceasing is a life wherein every act is an expression of divinity. Divine devotion is an act to connect heavenly wisdom, love and power with the beings of the earthly, and thereby exemplify states of divinity. Being a devotee is a spiritual state of being. One can attain many ordinations, and degrees of spiritual unfoldment. However one will always be a devotee of God - loving God with all thy mind, with all thy strength, with all thy heart and with all thy soul. Devote a special time that shall be solely for your soul. Let your private devotion be an invitation to God for the spirit of divinity to dwell and for the hierarchy of heaven to be present and aid you in all the circumstances of living. Read the 112th Psalm and burn blue candles.

Being humble to mankind's traditions is not the same as being willingly obedient to God’s Divine will. Pleasing man is not necessarily pleasing to God. Man wants us to submit to various cultural traditions that may not be God’s standards. You can be in alliance with the majority of mankind's ways and alienated and eliminated from the Kingdom of God. Mankind will have you think that being humble to their traditions and manners is being a proper person. This is not always true. The “gift of meekness” is knowing the greatness of God in spirit and in truth. The fruit of meekness is not submitting to the behaviors of man to be one with the crowd or majority of erroneous thinkers. Meekness to God is being resolute to his Divine Will and expressive of God’s Divine Love. It is knowing that God’s omnipresence is in all creation and in every soul. Stop thinking small and begin to think godly. Confirm that God is your immeasurable source and bountiful supply. God is available to those whose minds and hearts are pure and prepared to be one with God’s greatness and glory. Let your affirmation be, “I am a receiver of the plethora of goodness, blessings, and miracles prepared for me by my Divine Creator. I am preparing myself to be one with divine greatness and divine glory.” This month, read the 106th Psalm.

Take care of your body and be sure not to allow your body to become toxic. Drink water to hydrate and avoid conditions that result in illness. The body does not need to be deprived of this essential purifying regenerating lifegiving element-water. Flush your system. However, do not go to extremes with your water intake by overdrinking, thus overwhelming your kidneys. Your body must not be in a desert or a flood zone. Do not let water become stagnant in your body. In this matter do not be extreme. Seek to be balanced. Take the appropriate proportions of water that support a healthy life. Each night pray over water and let your first act each morning be to drink your blessed, lifegiving, healing water. Start each Monday by praying over your water and pouring it on the earth for an increase and outpouring of desired blessings. This is a libation. It is a call to heaven to pour out divine blessings into your affairs, and into the lives of your loved ones. It is recorded in the scripture, that God “will bless your bread and water and take sickness from the midst of thee”. Your libation is a sacred act - a call to the LORD to honor his divine promise to remove sicknesses, diseases, and discords, and to rain into your life and your loved ones the blessings of health, happiness, harmony, and holiness. Read 107th Psalm this month.

Be perfect. This is an empowering directive commanded by the Master Jesus, the Christ who taught in hidden parables. Understand what it means to be perfect. Perfect means to be complete. Perfect means to come to the resolution that you are not complete until you are holy. You are not holy until you are wholly one with God; when every aspect of your being is aligned with divinity. Recognize that you are a composite being, but your composite aspects are not functioning in alignment, when not unified, or inharmonious. Christ wants you to recognize your wholeness. Your composite being is composed of a physical body which is the temple of your soul. You have an astral or emotional aspect that when rightly inspired, this aspect can lift you to lofty heights. You have a mental aspect. Know that the mind has amazing abilities; perceptions, memories, imagination, concentration, and much more. The mind is your servant and should not become your master. More importantly, you are a spirit-soul being of divine light. Though you are in the material world the very essence of your being was wrought from the divine kingdom. Included in your perception and living are the higher vibratory realities, beyond the physical existence, the emotional-feeling impulses, as well as reasoning and pride of the mental aspect. The lower aspects of your composite being will scream at you for attention and demand you comply with their lower nature and perceptions. These aspects will have you feel and think that they are your true essential being, rather than your servants. You are like a charioteer, your body is the chariot, your mind, emotions, and energy body are the horses, and the reins are your will. It requires strength and skills to ride the chariot and manage the horses; likewise, it requires truth, love, and a devoted will to master the aspects of life. As your consciousness of your true self and your alliance with divinity expands, you will receive higher directions from your dreams. Realize that your dreams are not just fantasies of your mind and emotions. Your dreams are experiences of your inner aspects and inner being in various realms of existence. Your inner soul being is most often in a pictorial manner and reveals your feelings, desires, and mental states. Your dreams are teaching you about living, your composite aspects, your dispositions, and if truly desired the means of perfecting your life. Read the 40th Psalm.

Creating harmony requires you to take two opposing concepts or approaches and unify them by delineating the beneficial aspects of both. You will need to address the advantages of cooperation over contention. To induce a harmonious relationship, you must arouse compassion for the services required and thereby alleviate contention. Balance is the goal to foster, and beauty would be the result. Extreme positions are to be managed and balanced by discovering and maintaining the essential point and perception of equilibrium. Soft words can subdue wrath. Setting clear goals is necessary to abate deviant behavior. Viable discipline is necessary for any who would go rogue. Partnership is vital to obtaining significant successful outcomes. Be an inspiration to develop camaraderie. Develop clear plans and definitive assignments that will contribute to success. Review and verify progress, and by such, make the needed adjustments and corrections. Do not express favoritism. Keep God and your goal before you. It is the central point. Read the 57th Psalm this month.
December 2022
Stir up your pure mind by remembering who you are and whose you are. Remember from where you have fallen. Remember your first love is God. Remember your soul, the greatest gift of God. Remember that God is within your soul and thereby enlightens your mind, and radiates health into your body. God's spirit within glorifies your existence with prosperity. Having this hope and vision purifies you from erroneous, inhibiting doubts and anxieties. Through your imagination and efforts, create and manifest an abundant life that comes from God within you. God desires you to have a life of glory, not poverty and sickness. Visualize doubts decaying into rubbish that you burn with a divine fire; blow the ashes away with the Holy breath, and wash them away with the sacred streams of Godliness. Praise God's greatness and victory over every challenge. Read the 138th Psalm each morning and the 137th Psalm at night.
November 2022
Expressing life does not require repressing the soul and higher mind. Nor does it require rejecting the spiritual aspects inherent in the variety of experiences one can encounter. The joy of the LORD is in the principles of life, rightly expressed in all experiences. Being holy is knowing and expressing the divine intention and spiritual purpose found in morality. We need the unadulterated truth which gives birth to joy, peace, and the happiness of a fulfilled life. The absence of divine intention is the avenue through which imbalance, disharmony, and evil are the outcome. The absence of divine intention causes what was meant for pleasure to become poison. One does not mean to harm their body through the food they eat, but their food and addiction to taste can lead to issues with their health. Healthy foods can and should be made palatable and pleasing to the sight. The tongue can experience the basic flavors of bitterness, sourness, saltiness (saline), spiciness, blandness, and sweetness. Our life experiences are similar to our taste receptors. We can have bitter experiences, sour attitudes, salty dispositions, spicy personalities, a bland outlook, or sweet affection. When we cook we are in charge of the flavors of our foods. Likened to cooking, sometimes we overdo it with the flavors, or sometimes there aren’t enough flavors and ingredients. A good meal is delightful if we can have all flavors appropriately blended into our meal. We can select one or more flavors as the prime or sole taste that is sought. On occasion, a little sweetness aids in getting the medicine to go down, or combat peppery spices. We may wish to wash our mouths and rid ourselves of bacteria with the bitter taste of a lemon. We can consume the lemon straight/directly, or in a glass of water. What is the perfect or appropriate balance that you can control? What are the ingredients that are required to improve your life? Have you so engaged in the sweet aspects of life that bitter herbs are necessary? Can you make your circumstances and karma more palatable with salt, sugar, or spices? The health of your body, mind, and soul is your decision that should be guided by truth. The circumstances and conditions of your existence need you to enhance and change the recipe of living. Read the 12th Psalm this month.
October 2022
Rejoice in understanding that the spiritual world is not somewhere that you are not. God's spiritual world is here, and where you are right now. God is not foreign to you. God is within you. God is within you, right where you are. You are in this world, but not of this world. You walk in the spirit and the spirit dwells with you. The world of the spirit is available to you now. The divine presence and perfecting powers are in the now. Welcome God's presence, wherever you are. Activate God's power in all that you do. Apply God's principles in faith. Faith is the substance required to transform. It is the divine essence that is and becomes that which is needed and desired. It is molded by our own higher thoughts and spiritual imagination. It vibrates at a higher level and requires a higher state of consciousness to be used in a miraculous manner. Begin using this divine substance now. Use it in the pure thought of its magnificent power. Apply it to make the transformations to the circumstances of life. Invite this holy presence to become activated within you. With no inclination to hurt or harm another, administer blessings unto others. The more you use it in faith and love, the stronger and more precisely will it manifest. As you use this divine power your prosperity will increase. In faith your enemy’s influences will cease. Abide in the spirit of God and be receptive to God abiding supremely within you. Read the 111th Psalm this month.

Seek a deeper and higher understanding of the esoteric world. The esoteric world in which the truth is the essence and foundation of the material reality. There are various levels to the esoteric existence. Each round of the esoteric world goes higher and higher. The esoteric world is the source, substance, and spirit of that which brings things into manifestation. Seek to comprehend the divine primordial essence of the air that we breathe. The breath is infused with the esoteric principle and allows you to rejuvenate your existence by activating the various vital life forces. Through the concentrated breathing of the esoteric energy substance, which is innate in the air, one can do much to revitalize important aspects of one’s composite being to be in harmony with the vital spiritual centers. Rhythmic breathing and color breathing are keys to a grander awakening of the most essential aspects of your composite being. Through the process of rhythmic color breathing, aligned with divine postures, you can change and enhance internal energy particles to improve the various aspects of life. Make it a point to breathe softly, but deeply. Control yourself by controlling your breathing. Purify yourself with your breath and your imagination. Rid your being of foul conditions through the exhalation of darkness. Enrich your life with the esoteric light and the spiritual power of the color that serves and invigorates you with life. God breathed into man, and he became a living soul. Become a life-giving spirit by filling your being with the esoteric light. Jesus breathed on his disciples, and they became apostles. Read the 1st Psalm this month.
