Know My Divine Power. Trust in Me. Dwell in My Love. Laugh and trust. Laughter is a child’s faith in God and good.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Seek safety in My Secret Place.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n You cannot be touched or harmed there. That is sure.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Really feel as if you were in a strong Tower, strongly guarded, and against which nothing can prevail.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n For in the time of trouble he shall hide me in his pavilion;\u00a0<\/em><\/span> Rejoice, rejoice. I have much to teach you both. Think not that I withhold My Presence when I do not reveal more of My Truth to you.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n You are passing through a storm. Enough that I am with you to say “Peace be still,” to quiet both winds and waves.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n It was on the quiet mountain slopes that I taught My disciples the Truths of My Kingdom, not during the storm. So with you, the time of the mountain slopes will come, and you shall rest with Me and learn.<\/span><\/p>\n And he saith unto them, Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith? Fear of what others will say is want of trust in Me. This must not be. Convert all these difficulties into the purification of your characters.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n See yourselves as those around you see you, not as you wish to be, and walk very humbly with your God.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n I will set you on high because you have known My Name, but it must be a purified you to be so exalted. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Let nothing be done through strife or vain glory, but in lowliness\u00a0<\/span><\/em> Our Lord, with hearts full of joy we thank Thee for Thy marvelous blessings showered on us today and every day.\u00a0<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n I am beside you. Follow in all things My Guiding. Marvels beyond all your imaginings are unfolding. I am your Guide. Joy in that thought. Your Guide and your Friend.<\/span><\/p>\n Remember that to Me a miracle is only a natural happening. To My disciples, to My chosen, a miracle is only a natural happening. But it is a natural happening operative through spiritual forces, and therefore the man who works and understands through the senses only, regards it as something contrary to Nature.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n My children, the children of My Kingdom are a peculiar\u00a0people, set apart, different hopes,\u00a0and aspirations, and motives, and sense of reward.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n You see a marvelous happening (as that today), happening so easily, so simply, so free\u00a0from all other agency, and you wonder.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n My children, listen, this has not happened easily and simply. It has been achieved by hours, days, months of weariness and heartache battled against and overcome, by a steadfast,\u00a0unflinching desire to conquer self, and to do My Will and live My teachings.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The frets and the worries and the scorn patiently borne mean spiritual Power acquired,\u00a0operating marvelously.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. Psalm 23:1 \u00a0<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n Carry out My Commands and leave the result to Me. Do this as obediently and faithfully as you would expect a child to follow out a given rule in the working of a sum, with no question but that, if the working out is done according to commands, the result will be right.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Remember that the commands I have given you have been already worked out by Me in the Spirit World to produce in your case, and in your circumstances, the required result. So follow My rules faithfully.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Realize that herein lies the perfection of Divine Guidance. To follow a rule, laid down, even by earth’s wisest, might lead to disaster.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The knowledge of your individual life and character, capability, circumstances, and temptations must be, to some extent, lacking, but to follow My direct Guidance means to carry out instructions given with a full knowledge of you and the required result.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Each individual was meant to walk with Me in this way, to act under Divine control, strengthened by Divine Power.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Have I not taught you to love simplicity? No matter what the world may think, earth’s aims and intrigues are not for you. Oh! My children, learn of Me. Simplicity brings rest. True rest and Power.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n To the world foolishness, maybe, but to Me a foretaste of Divinity. Never be led by the world’s standard. My Standard only is for you.<\/span><\/p>\n But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through I am teaching you both My Way of removing mountains. The way to remove mountains is the way of Praise. When a trouble comes think of all you have to be thankful for. Praise, praise, praise.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Say “Thank you” all the time. This is the remover of mountains, your thankful hearts that praise.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n I will praise thee with my whole heart; before the gods Abide in Me. “The works that I do shall ye do also and greater works than these shall ye do because I go to My Father.”\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n “Greater Works!” The blind received their sight, the lame walked, the lepers were cleansed, the poor had the Gospel preached to them. “And greater works than these shall ye do because I go unto My Father.”\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Wonder of the World! Miracle of the Ages! God’s Power\u00a0manifest in believing man! God’s Power going out to bless, through the agency of the man actuated by the Holy Spirit. Arise from the grave of sickness, poverty, doubt,\u00a0despondency, limitation. “Arise, shine for the Light is come and the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee.”\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n A wonderful future is before you both. A future of unlimited power to bless others. Just be channels. Be used. Ask. Ask. “Ask what ye will and it shall be done unto you,” and unto those for whom you pray.<\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit Our Lord, grant us that wonderful inward Peace.\u00a0<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n My children that Peace does truly pass all understanding. That Peace no man taketh from you. No man has the power to disturb that Peace, but you yourselves can let the world and its worries and distractions in.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n You can give the entrance to fears and despondency. You can open the door to the robber who breaks in upon, and destroys, your peace.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Set yourselves this task to allow nothing to disturb your peace, your heart calm with Me. Stop all work, stop all intercourse with others — until this is restored. Do not let those about you spoil your peace of heart and mind. Do not let anyone without, any trouble, any irritation, any adversity, disturb it for one moment.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Look on each difficulty as training to enable you to acquire this peace. Every work, every interruption — set yourself to see that none of it touches the harmony of the real you<\/i>, that is hid with Me in the Secret Place of the Father.<\/span><\/p>\n Great peace have they which love thy law: Our Lord, guide us. Show us Thy Will and Way in everything.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n Keep close to Me and you shall know The Way because, as I said to My disciples, I am The Way. That is the solution to all earth’s problems.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Keep close, very close to Me. Think, act, and live in My Presence.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n How dare any foe touch you, protected by Me! That is the secret of all Power, all Peace, all Purity, all influence, the keeping very near to Me.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Abide in Me. Live in My Presence. Rejoice in My Love. Thank and Praise all the time. Wonders are unfolding.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n And He said, My presence shall go with thee, I am your Lord. Lord of your lives, Controller of your days, your present and your future. Leave all plans to Me. Only act as I bid you.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n You have entered now, both of you, upon the God-guided life. Think what that means. God-taught, God-guided.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Is anything too wonderful for such a life? Do you begin to see how wonderful life with Me can be?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Do you see that no evil can befall you? \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n A man’s heart deviseth his way; but the Lord directeth his steps. Proverbs 16:9<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n Our Lord, we thank Thee for so much. We bless Thee and praise Thy Glorious Name.\u00a0<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n Fill your world with Love and laughter. Never mind what anguish lies behind you.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Forget, forgive, love, and laugh.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Treat all as you would treat Me, with Love and consideration.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Let nothing that others do to you alter your treatment of them.<\/span><\/p>\n Forbearing one another; and forgiving one another, Oh Jesus, come and walk with us and let us feel Thy very nearness.\u00a0<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n I walk with you. Oh! think, My children, not only to guide and comfort you and strengthen and uphold, but for solace and comfort for Myself.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n When a loving child is by you, is the nearness only that you may provide protection and help for that little one?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Rather, too, that in that little child you may find joy and cheer and comfort in its simplicity, its Love, its trust.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n So, too, is it in your power to comfort and bring joy to My Heart.<\/span><\/p>\n And I will walk among you, and will be your God, I am your Shield. No buffets of the world can harm you. Feel that between you and all scorn and indignity is a strong shield. Practice feeling this until nothing has the power to spoil the inward peace. Then indeed a marvelous victory shall be won.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n You wonder sometimes why you are permitted to make mistakes in your choice when you sought so truly to do My Will in the matter.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n To that I say it was no mistake…. All your lessons cannot be learned without difficulty, and this was needed to teach you a lesson. Not to him who walks on, with no obstacles in his way, but to him that overcometh is the promise given.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n So to attain peace quickly in your surroundings, as well as in your hearts, learn your lesson quickly. And the overcoming is never the overcoming of the one who troubled you, but the overcoming of the weaknesses and wrong in your own nature, aroused by such a one.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n No lower standard than My Standard shall be yours. “Be ye therefore perfect even as your Father in Heaven is perfect.”<\/span><\/p>\n After these things the word of the Lord came unto Abram Lord, bless us and this evening hour, and in Thy Mercy heal us all.\u00a0<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n Do not think that suffering is the only path into My Kingdom. There are sunlit glades, and ways amid the loveliest flowers, along which the steps and hearts of men are drawn to Me. There are birds and laughter and butterflies, and warm, life-giving summer air, and with these as tender companions and friends, the Joy-Way into the Kingdom can be taken.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Bleak, cold, and desolate, brier-beset and stony, are not all the ways. Leave all to Me. The choice of ways, the guidance in the Way. But when the sunlight calls accept it gladly.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Even in the Spirit-World appreciation results from contrary experience. Can the fireside of home be more dear than to the traveler who has forced his way over bleak moor and through blinding storm? Take to your hearts this word of cheer. “He will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able but will, with the temptation, also find a way of escape that ye may be able to bear it.”\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The world is not the Kingdom. In the world ye shall have tribulation but “be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.” Live with Me, the Conquering Christ, and the Joy and Peace of conquest shall be yours too.<\/span><\/p>\n And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. Think much of My servants of old. How Abraham believed in the promise (when as yet he had no child) that in his seed all the nations of the earth should be blessed.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n How Moses led the Children of Israel through the desert, sure that, at last, they would gain the Promised Land.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Down through the ages there have always been those who obeyed, not seeing but believing, and their Faith was rewarded. So shall it be even with you.<\/span><\/p>\n For what saith the scriptures? Abraham believed God\u00a0<\/em><\/span> Give Me the gift of a brave and thankful heart.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Man proves his greatness by his power to see causes for thankfulness in his life.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n When life seems hard, and troubles crowd, then very definitely look for causes for thankfulness.<\/span><\/p>\n The sacrifice, the offering of thanksgiving, is indeed a sweet incense going up to Me through the busy day. Seek diligently for the something to be glad and thankful about in every happening, and soon no search will be required.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The causes for joy and gratitude will spring to greet your loving hearts.<\/span><\/p>\n As the trumpeters and singers were as one, to make one sound\u00a0<\/em><\/span> July 16 – Refuge\u00a0 Know My Divine Power.
