“As it became more generally known that these few contemplatives in the world had access to the peace and prosperity of the world, those not spiritually attuned began to look upon meditation as a means of going within solely for the purpose of drawing forth the good things of life: supply, companionship, home, and health. And so a practice was begun of turning within in an attempt to draw forth things, and eventually the art of pure meditation was lost, and meditation became an incomprehensible mystery.” ~Joel S Goldsmith

Romans 12:1-3 KJV
1 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.
2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
3 For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith.

John 15:4-5 KJV
4 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me.
5 I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.

The only possible reason to desire things in this-world is when one has accepted a sense that they are separated from God. Thinking that God is like a Santa Clause can will only lead to disappointment. God cannot be used for human wants and needs. If we are Communing within the Realm of God is there something to want in this-world? Present yourselves in secrecy and silence to God for His Purpose and His Glory; and rest in the Assurance that He is your Shepherd that Lovingly provides for and protects you. All that the Father hath is thine. ~Al Denninger

“Somewhat sorrowfully, the teacher of this mystery, like the Master who came later, learned that, whereas he would give his ‘pearl of great price’ to all mankind, like Jerusalem, they ‘would not.’ Only the few were receptive, but those few became a people set apart, a joyous people, successful and brilliant because they had all of God upon which to draw for wisdom, light, love, and attainment.” ~Joel S Goldsmith

Matthew 23:37 how often KJV
37 ...how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not!

Hebrews 6:19-20 KJV
19 Which hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and stedfast, and which entereth into that within the veil;
20 Whither the forerunner is for us entered, even Jesus, made an high priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec.

Matthew 7:13-14 KJV
13 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:
14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

Colossians 3:15-17 KJV
15 And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful.
16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
17 And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.

All that the Father hath is thine. The Word is freely Given. But how many are receptive, aware and awake? Let the Word of Christ Dwell in you Richly. Thank you Father, for Your Love. ~Al Denninger

“The original wanderer who discovered the secret of life and its harmonious and joyous experience then probably sought out others who were lost on the desert of human existence to whom he might impart the mystery of resurrection from the tomb of mortality, the great secret of the ascension of soul and body to immortal heights. And so the great art of meditation was discovered, taught, and lived.” ~Joel S Goldsmith

Joshua 1:8 KJV
8 This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.

John 14:6-7 KJV
6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
7 If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him.

Luke 18:18-19 & 26-27 KJV
18 And a certain ruler asked him, saying, Good Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?
19 And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? none is good, save one, that is, God.
26 And they that heard it said, Who then can be saved?
27 And he said, The things which are impossible with men are possible with God.

Proverbs 12:28 KJV
28 In the way of righteousness is life; and in the pathway thereof there is no death.

Psalm 23:6 KJV
6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.

In complete Stillness there are no distractions—and so we practice. Be still and seek ye first the Kingdom of God, and in His Righteousness there is a Pathway to Eternal Life. If we get to Know the Christ, we will Know the Father also. Follow Christ, where there is only Life. ~Al Denninger

“Contemplating the mysteries of life, its law and beauty, its rhyme and rhythm, its harmonies and moods, led his attention back to his Source, to the realm of the real, the kingdom of God within him, and he experienced the ultimate of meditation in an actual communion with the source and fount of all Being. Then came the release from all care and the solution to all problems, followed by the fulfillment of all good in his experience even without taking thought.” ~Joel S Goldsmith

2 Timothy 2:7 KJV
7 Consider what I say; and the Lord give thee understanding in all things.

Colossians 1:16-17 KJV
16 For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:
17 And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.

Ephesians 4:6 KJV
6 One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.

Acts 17:27-28 KJV
27 That they should seek the Lord, if haply they might feel after him, and find him, though he be not far from every one of us:
28 For in him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain also of your own poets have said, For we are also his offspring.

Romans 12:2 KJV
2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

When we ponder and meditate in the Secret Place of the Most High we will be Led by our Shepherd. He Knows what we have need of before we ask, because He is the Source, Creator and maintainer of all these things. He goes before us to make straight the Way that we may Experience His Love, and in turn, Be His Love. Stop and release your self into the Realm of Vision to Focus on His will—and Be about The Father’s Business. In God’s Light we See Light. ~Al Denninger

“Now, through an inner communion with Something greater than himself and an outer communion with every form of life, he was no longer alone or lonesome. The great mystery of Adam was solved: not getting a mate from his rib, but from his heart under the rib, really from that feeling usually attributed to the heart, that feeling of love that wells up in meditation, for it is from this feeling of love within man, which comes only when in contemplation and communion with God, that all the issues of life come forth: companionship, supply, safety, security, peace, joy, health, and completeness.” ~Joel S Goldsmith

Matthew 22:37 KJV
37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.

Jeremiah 29:13 KJV
13 And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.

Proverbs 3:5 KJV
5 Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.

Heart: Internal Sense—Knowing, Feeling, the Source and the Domain of Love.

Soul: Internal God As—Origin of Life, Fullness of Being, Spirit, Truth, and Divine Presence.

mind: Internal thought—the place of trust, recognition, devotion and of Practicing the Presence.

Communion: The Spiritual Connection of Heart, Soul and mind. The Experience of Knowing the Truth, and resting in It. Communion is a Connection of Oneness, in Oneness. Communion is an Experience of Omnipresence. External Harmony, Companionship, Supply, Security, Peace and Completeness follows. ~Al Denninger

“Meanwhile, a great mystery revealed itself to the explorer in this realm of Withinness: he realized that man originally was pure spiritual being, drawing his life, substance, law, and continuity from God, but after the mist arose and man lost his vision of God, he became a lone, lost individual, wandering like the Prodigal, but never reaching home, never reaching his divine consciousness and fulfillment.” ~Joel S Goldsmith

Genesis 1:26-27 KJV
26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

Genesis 2:7 KJV
7 And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.

John 15:4-6 KJV
4 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me.
5 I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.
6 If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.

Romans 8:9-14 KJV
9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.
10 And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.
11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.
12 Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh.
13 For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live.
14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.

We were Created In, By and As Spirit. If we are tempted to accept that we are created of, by and as an earthy creature, then we have separated our consciousness from a Spiritual Connection. Without a Spiritual Awakening, Recognition and Life connected to Spirit we are none of His and are destined to a limited understanding of what life is. A separated life is terminal. Reconnect, Awake, Arise and Live. ~Al Denninger

“A continuation of such experiences would eventually result in a complete realization of oneness with all being: with trees and plants, with the birds of the air and the fish of the sea, or it may have lifted him into conscious oneness even with the stars or with the lightning and thunder of a summer storm.” ~Joel S Goldsmith

John 15:5 KJV
5 I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.

Ephesians 4:4-6 KJV
4 There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; 5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism,
6 One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.

Psalms 23:1-3 KJV
1 The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.

Ephesians 2:6-10 KJV
6 And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:
7 That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus.
8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.
10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.

There is One Source, One Spirit and One Vine… I am an individual Expression, or branch of that Vine… Therefore there is no separation and no individual self… All that the Father hath is mine… And through His Spirit I Hear and See and Walk and Live in His beautiful Creation… His Garden provides my every need…. I Live, yet not I—Chris Lives in me… He is my Shepherd and Leads me in Harmony and Peaceful Fullness… He Raises me up into High Places… And He shows me His Creation in a Way beyond my understanding… He Walks with me and talks to me… His still Voice Leads me on my Path… And so, I follow… Thank you Father. ~Al Denninger

“Lost in such contemplation, the miracle occurred, the climax of meditation was reached, and an inner release experienced which may have taken the form of a deep breath or sigh, or as of a weight or burden falling from his shoulders. Undoubtedly, there was a sense of inner peace or mild exhilaration, and then a sense of being at peace with all the world.” ~Joel S Goldsmith

Hebrews 4:12-13 KJV
12 For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
13 Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do.

Isaiah 26:2-3 KJV
2 Open ye the gates, that the righteous nation which keepeth the truth may enter in.
3 Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.

Mark 4:36-40 KJV
36 And when they had sent away the multitude, they took him even as he was in the ship. And there were also with him other little ships.
37 And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the ship, so that it was now full.
38 And he was in the hinder part of the ship, asleep on a pillow: and they awake him, and say unto him, Master, carest thou not that we perish?
39 And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.
40 And he said unto them, Why are ye so fearful? how is it that ye have no faith?

Faith, Trust and Love are developed in Meditation. Our Experience and Demonstration are in proportion to our dedication to these. Practice the Presence and one day It will be So—at a time when you think not. Leave it to God and Rest in His Perfect Peace. ~Al Denninger

“The original discoverer of the art of meditation is unknown. He may have been a traveler on the desert who spent his time in contemplating the mysteries of the heavens, one perhaps who knew the stars and some of their secrets; he may have known and contemplated the mysteries of the Sphinx and the pyramids; he may have been a fisherman and known the joy of contemplating the mysteries of the sea, or a shepherd like Moses, contemplating the mysteries of nature, sensing the atmosphere of the mountains and marveling at the fertility of flocks and fields.” ~Joel S Goldsmith

Genesis 2:1-3 KJV
1 Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them.
2 And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made.
3 And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made.

Hebrews 4:7-12 KJV
7 Again, he limiteth a certain day, saying in David, To day, after so long a time; as it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts.
8 For if Jesus had given them rest, then would he not afterward have spoken of another day.
9 There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God.
10 For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from his.
11 Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief.
12 For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

2 Corinthians 3:16-18 KJV
16 Nevertheless when it shall turn to the Lord, the veil shall be taken away.
17 Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.
18 But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.

Romans 12:1,2 KJV
1 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies [conscious thought] a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.
2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

Meditation is leaning not unto our own understanding, but resting in the Glory of God. God’s Own Example from the beginning has been referred to ever since then. Our thoughts are not His Thoughts.

Psalms 143:5-6 KJV
5 I remember the days of old; I meditate on all thy works; I muse on the work of thy hands.
6 I stretch forth my hands unto thee: my soul thirsteth after thee, as a thirsty land. Selah.

Philippians 4:8-11 KJV
8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.
9 Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you.
10 But I rejoiced in the Lord greatly, that now at the last your care of me hath flourished again; wherein ye were also careful, but ye lacked opportunity.
11 Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content.

Colossians 3:2 KJV
2 Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.

“When you have Omnipotence and Omnipresence together in one place at the same time—within your own consciousness—you have the kingdom of God realized within you. The kingdom of God is neither lo here nor lo there; it is not in holy mountains; it is not in holy temples; it is not in holy teachers: ‘The kingdom of God is within you’; therefore, relax from the strain, relax from striving, and acknowledge Omnipresence, the presence of God where you are:

Neither life nor death can separate me from God. I am in the presence of God, and as long as I am in the presence of God, it matters not whether I am what the world calls alive or dead.

“If you mount up to heaven, you will find God there, and if you make your bed in hell, you will find God there also. When you walk through the ‘valley of the shadow of death,’ you will find God there with you, if you have taken that word Omnipresence into your consciousness and lived with it. You will be assailed from morning to night with the belief that you cannot reach God, that God is somewhere other than where you are, but now you will be called upon with every one of these temptations to stop your searching, your reaching out for God, and settle back in the realization that where you are God is because of Omnipresence.” ~Joel S Goldsmith

Psalms 139:1-10 KJV
1 O Lord, thou hast searched me, and known me.
2 Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising, thou understandest my thought afar off.
3 Thou compassest my path and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways.
4 For there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O Lord, thou knowest it altogether.
5 Thou hast beset me behind and before, and laid thine hand upon me.
6 Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot attain unto it.
7 Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy presence?
8 If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there.
9 If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea;

18 May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height;

“The Kingdom of God Realized

To this word Omnipotence, let us add another, Omnipresence, which is of equal importance. Most people have an idea that God is somewhere up in heaven, in a holy mountain, in a holy temple, or in a holy teacher, but the real truth is that God is closer to you than your very breathing, and nearer than your own hands and feet, and you do not have to go anywhere to find Him. You need only acknowledgment, the recognition of Omnipresence, of God filling all space throughout all time, the recognition that where you are is holy ground.” ~Joel S Goldsmith

7 In all things shewing thyself a pattern of good works: in doctrine shewing uncorruptness, gravity, sincerity,

John 13:12-15 KJV
12 So after he had washed their feet, and had taken his garments, and was set down again, he said unto them, Know ye what I have done to you?
13 Ye call me Master and Lord: and ye say well; for so I am.
14 If I then, your Lord and Master, have washed your feet; ye also ought to wash one another's feet.
15 For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you.

John 13:34,35 KJV
34 A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.
35 By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.

Matthew 5:16 KJV
16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.

There are a couple of old sayings that come to mind: “Actions speak louder than words” and Emerson said, “Your actions speak so loudly, I can not hear what you are saying.” For example; saying “I love you” to a friend is much less meaningful and memorable than actions that show Love. Christ Jesus exemplified an activity of Love, humility and service on holy Thursday during The Last Supper. This act serves as a reminder of the commandment Jesus gave to Love and serve one another.

“‘Strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it,’ but when you finally arrive, the work is plentiful. The laborers are few, very few, but the work is world-wide. With every degree of realization you attain, with every bit of confidence you have in Omnipotence, be prepared to be called upon to prove it, over and over again. The time will come when there are no major problems in your own life, and many, many years may go by without your ever being aware of a major problem of your own, but you will be drawing to you those of the world who are seeking the same freedom that you have found, and you will be called upon to work with them—to serve, to heal, and to teach—but only in proportion to your own demonstration.” ~Joel S Goldsmith

Matthew 7:14 KJV
14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

1 Corinthians 12:4-11 KJV
4 Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.
5 And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord.
6 And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which worketh all in all.
7 But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal.
8 For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit;
9 To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit;
10 To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues:
11 But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will.

John 12:32 KJV
32 And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me.

“If so be an individual ever again rises to the height of Christ Jesus, he will find himself with all the world's problems to be solved. It is for this reason that spiritual attainment is never given to us for our own benefit. Of those who have much, much is demanded; and with every bit of spiritual life that you attain, be assured that you will be called upon to bear more and more witness to it, you will be called upon for more and more service to God. Never believe that the spiritual path leads to sitting in a cave somewhere, hiding away from the world; never believe that it leads to a life of indolence and ease.” ~Joel S Goldsmith

Romans 12:6-8 KJV
6 Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, whether prophecy, let us prophesy according to the proportion of faith;
7 Or ministry, let us wait on our ministering: or he that teacheth, on teaching;
8 Or he that exhorteth, on exhortation: he that giveth, let him do it with simplicity; he that ruleth, with diligence; he that sheweth mercy, with cheerfulness.

Matthew 5:11-16 KJV
11 Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.
12 Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.
13 Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.
14 Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.
15 Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.
16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.

Luke 12:48 For unto KJV
48 ...For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required: and to whom men have committed much, of him they will ask the more.

Romans 8:28 KJV
28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

Be strong and courageous there is no reason to fear the appearances of temptation. Temptation has no real power. Don’t get to comfortable and begin to coast. We have been Given much Work to do, you and I. No matter what dangers and difficulties are thrown in our Path, stay Focused on God and Love Him, and He will show us the Way. ~Al Denninger

“To Whom Much Is Given, of Him Much Is Demanded

In this world, you will continually be faced with the appearance of two powers, and the higher you go in spiritual realization, the more will you be faced with it, because when you have overcome the world for your self, you will find that you are attracting to you all those who are themselves besieged with the problem of two powers; and so more than ever will you be called upon to stand fast.” ~Joel S Goldsmith

Matthew 4:8-10 KJV
8 Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them;
9 And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me.
10 Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.

Matthew 6:24 KJV
24 No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.

2 Corinthians 4:1-11 KJV
1 Therefore seeing we have this ministry, as we have received mercy, we faint not;
2 But have renounced the hidden things of dishonesty, not walking in craftiness, nor handling the word of God deceitfully; but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God.
3 But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:
4 In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.
5 For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus' sake.
6 For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
7 But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.
8 We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair;
9 Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed;
10 Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body.
11 For we which live are always delivered unto death for Jesus' sake, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh.

Romans 12:2 KJV
2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

Even Jesus, when he was well into His Message and Work of God was tempted by the idea of a selfhood, and a power, separate and apart from God. He stood still right in the face of temptation and declared that the appearance of temptation be gone. The temptation dissolved and He then moved on, to prove the Good and Perfect Will of God. We must also, follow Christ and stand still in the noise of temptation as it appears to us, no matter how loud it gets. If our gospel is hid, we are lost. Declare the Presence of God. Let your Light Shine and Live. ~Al Denninger

“Always remember that there is a milk of the Word for babes, but there is also a meat of the Word for the mature. Remember not to cast your pearls before swine. ~Joel S Goldsmith”

1 Peter 2:2-5 KJV
2 As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby:
3 If so be ye have tasted that the Lord is gracious.
4 To whom coming, as unto a living stone, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God, and precious,
5 Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.

2 Timothy 3:16-17 KJV
16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
17 That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.

Matthew 7:6-8 KJV
6 Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.
7 Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:
8 For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.

1 Corinthians 2:14 KJV
14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

As newborn babes, desiring milk,
we seek the Word our Father gives.
That we may grow up strong and proud,
and thrive by Spirit, so well endowed.

We seek, we ask, we knock and pray,
until we do receive one day,
an Open Heart to be Aware,
and Know we’re in our Father’s care.

We taste the Spirit so Gracious Be,
the Earth does melt, for us to See.
God’s Meat presented at our feet,
to share with all the friends we meet.

So search the Scriptures day by day,
until we Know the Truth that Is.
and grateful is our Soul to say,
Thank you Father, I found the Way.

“The Master cautioned us to do our praying secretly, silently, and sacredly, reminding us that ‘thy Father which seeth in secret himself shall reward thee openly.’ So I say to you that every step on the mystical path must be a secret one. It is not that we would keep it secret from the world because of a reluctance to share it, but we would keep it secret within ourselves until we have demonstrated it. Then we are more than willing to share it with that part of the world that is led to us.” ~Joel S Goldsmith

Matthew 6:1-8 (to ;) KJV
1 Take heed that ye do not your alms before men, to be seen of them: otherwise ye have no reward of your Father which is in heaven.
2 Therefore when thou doest thine alms, do not sound a trumpet before thee, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
3 But when thou doest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth:
4 That thine alms may be in secret: and thy Father which seeth in secret himself shall reward thee openly.
5 And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
6 But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.
7 But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.
8 Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him.

John 16:13 KJV
13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.

John 8:31-32 KJV
31 Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed;
32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

Matthew 4:18,19 KJV
18 And Jesus, walking by the sea of Galilee, saw two brethren, Simon called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers.
19 And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.

God has put His Spirit within us—the perfect place to Always Find Him. When we pray, to pray aright, we must Let His Spirit that is Omniscient and Omnipresent within us to do the praying in the Secret Place of the Most High. That is the only way to not let the left hand know not what the right hand is doing. God already Knows what we have need of—Himself Experienced and Expressed. He will show us the Way that Glorifies Himself. Leave your nets. Follow Christ and He will lead you in the paths of righteousness, and make you fishers of men. When you have Experienced the Truth, God will make you ready. And you will be Led to show all that are receptive the Truth—the Meat of the Word—and set them Free. These are the Greater Works. Freely you have Received, free Give. ~Al Denninger

“Live this life within yourself until the fruitage of it begins to appear in your experience. Then when you are asked the why and the wherefore of the changes in your life or when you find a receptivity or a sincere interest, you may begin to reveal it, but be sure that you, your self, are demonstrating it before you begin preaching or teaching it. Do not expect anyone to believe merely what you say because as Emerson said, ‘What you are... thunders so so that I cannot hear what you say....’ Be assured that no one is going to believe a metaphysical or a mystical cliché simply because you repeat it. Fortunate indeed are you if you find those who believe it after you have demonstrated it.” ~Joel S Goldsmith

Matthew 7:16 (to .) KJV
16 Ye shall know them by their fruits.

James 5:7-8 KJV
7 Be patient therefore, brethren, unto the coming of the Lord. Behold, the husbandman waiteth for the precious fruit of the earth, and hath long patience for it, until he receive the early and latter rain.
8 Be ye also patient; stablish your hearts: for the coming of the Lord draweth nigh.

Proverbs 3:5-6 KJV
5 Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
6 In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.

John 16:13 KJV
13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.

Wait upon the Lord, be still and quiet until you have been Led and Given Direction. The Path we take is God’s, Path for you, not ours of our own self. Lean not on thine own understanding and interpretation. The message you share must be of God if it is to be the truth. The Truth in Its Fullness is Freedom. ~Al Denninger

“Silence and Secrecy

You have to begin this moment to take an attitude in which you accept Omnipotence, God as All, and therefore anything and everything else as the ‘arm of flesh,’ temporal power, nothingness. This you must do sacredly and secretly. Do your praying secretly because unless you attain this consciousness within yourself you will never be able to demonstrate it outwardly and openly. Do not go around preaching or teaching this; do not proselyte; do do not try to tell your neighbor, your friends, or your relatives how wonderful this is. They would not believe you anyway.” ~Joel S Goldsmith

II Chronicles 32:7,8 KJV
7 Be strong and courageous, be not afraid nor dismayed for the king of Assyria, nor for all the multitude that is with him: for there be more with us than with him:
8 With him is an arm of flesh; but with us is the Lord our God to help us, and to fight our battles. And the people rested themselves upon the words of Hezekiah king of Judah.

Matthew 6:19-21 KJV
19 Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal:
20 But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:
21 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.

John 18:36 KJV
36 Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world:

1 Peter 1:24 KJV
24 For all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away:

Matthew 6:6 (to ;)
6 But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret;

Omnipotence means there is only one Power, Infinitely Expressed. The Kingdom of God is in the Spiritual Realm and is not understood in human terms. Where there is a lack of understanding, there is usually thoughts of rejection. Keep your prayer and meditations in secret and in silence until such time that God anoints you to Express His Word in His Way. When we are about the Father’s Business, we need to make sure it is His Business and not ours. Be still until we Hear not to. ~Al Denninger

“If you acknowledge that you are some self other than the divine, you wither. You have then set up that which has to surround itself with armor plate. But when you acknowledge God as your Self, then let God be Its own defense and use no physical or mental weapons. Human weapons are necessary for those on the level of consciousness that live by might and by power, but those who come to that higher level of life by the Spirit cannot use the world's weapons. They learn that God is not a power over other powers. God is a Self-maintained and Self-sustained Power. That is the Power, and that Power is love: not a love that we use for a purpose, but a love which embraces us within Its law and maintains and sustains our being.” ~Joel S Goldsmith

John 15:6 (to ;) KJV
6 If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered;

Ephesians 6:13-17 KJV
13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;
15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;
16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.
17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:

Zechariah 4:6 Not KJV
6 ...Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the Lord of hosts.

1 Corinthians 8:4 KJV
4 As concerning therefore the eating of those things that are offered in sacrifice unto idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is none other God but one.

Colossians 1:16-17 KJV
16 For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:
17 And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.

There is no-thing separate or apart from God. In God does all Power, Presence, Protection and Consciousness exist. Therefore God Abides in us and we in Him. If we entertain a straying thought that we of our own self can do things we can be distracted from the indwelling Presence and are subject to whatever so-called power those suggestions can think up. As we keep our focus on God there will be no distractions. Take unto you the whole Armor of God. God’s embrace is Pure Love, be still and Know that Love and we become His Love unto everyone we meet and know. ~Al Denninger

“Spiritual power is self-maintained, a self-created and a self-sustained power, and you have only to let yourself be clothed with this spiritual armor of truth and then to stand in its name and nature. The spiritual armor of truth is not a weapon to be used against error: The spiritual armor of truth is the realization of Omnipotence, that creative Influence which not only created this universe, but which maintains and sustains Itself unto eternity.” ~Joel S Goldsmith

John 15:5 KJV
5 I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.

1 Corinthians 2:4-7 KJV
4 And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power:
5 That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.
6 Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the princes of this world, that come to nought:
7 But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory:

Philippians 4:13 KJV
13 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.

When we Abide in the Kingdom of God we are as branches that have direct contact with the Vine. We intimately Realize the Infinite nature of God as He is our Source, our Shepherd and Refuge. In Him do we Trust. In His Fullness we Rest. ~Al Denninger

“‘The battle is the Lord's”—not yours or mine. We need no physical powers; we need no mental powers: That which is the least of them, a little stone, is sufficient to the tearing down of the stronghold of the mighty Goliath—even a tiny little bit of a stone, nothingness. That which to the world represents no power at all, a little stone, overthrows the mightiest of powers, whether that power is physical or mental.” ~Joel S Goldsmith

II Chronicles 20:15 KJV
15 And he said, Hearken ye, all Judah, and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem, and thou king Jehoshaphat, Thus saith the Lord unto you, Be not afraid nor dismayed by reason of this great multitude; for the battle is not yours, but God's.

1 Samuel 17:45-50 KJV
45 Then said David to the Philistine, Thou comest to me with a sword, and with a spear, and with a shield: but I come to thee in the name of the Lord of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom thou hast defied.
46 This day will the Lord deliver thee into mine hand; and I will smite thee, and take thine head from thee; and I will give the carcases of the host of the Philistines this day unto the fowls of the air, and to the wild beasts of the earth; that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel.
47 And all this assembly shall know that the Lord saveth not with sword and spear: for the battle is the Lord's, and he will give you into our hands.
48 And it came to pass, when the Philistine arose, and came, and drew nigh to meet David, that David hastened, and ran toward the army to meet the Philistine.
49 And David put his hand in his bag, and took thence a stone, and slang it, and smote the Philistine in his forehead, that the stone sunk into his forehead; and he fell upon his face to the earth.
50 So David prevailed over the Philistine with a sling and with a stone, and smote the Philistine, and slew him; but there was no sword in the hand of David.

The entire Philistine army was defeated by one shepherd boy, who came not with a sword against a sword, but came in the name of the Lord of Hosts. He was governed by a deep faith in God that no one else present had, and confidence to do the right thing in the right Way. He sought the Kingdom of God first and followed the Directions Given. The moment God’s Will was followed the battle was not in David’s hands. David recognized only the Omnipotence of God where Goliath had no power.

“This same principle applies in the healing work. If you have accepted the belief of infectious and contagious diseases, inherited diseases, or any other form of disease, watch what happens when you give up your mental weapons and stop fighting it. Watch what happens when you stand in the name and nature of God. There is no weapon, there is no belief, there is no concept of man that can stand in opposition to the name and nature of God.” ~Joel S Goldsmith

Matthew 5:39 KJV
39 But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil:

Isaiah 54:17 (to ;) KJV

“Were you to admit that any person or influence on earth could be destructive to you in any way, shape, manner, or form, you would most certainly have to find some form of defense against it, some form of power to use against it. But you have the mightiest defense of all: the realization that there is no destructive influence unless God be the destructive influence to any concept unlike Itself. The God-power, the God-realization in you, reveals that nothing in the world of effect, nothing in the world of concepts, nothing in the world of persons is power for good or for evil; and, therefore, you need nothing with which to overcome it.” ~Joel S Goldsmith

Psalms 23:3 he KJV
3 ...he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.

Psalms 91:1-4 KJV
1 He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
2 I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.
3 Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.
4 He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.

John 8:32 KJV
32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

A defense against the noise of this world is not really an intended defense. Defense against what? Something other that God? If we are fighting against something we have reacted to it and given it a power that is separate and apart from God. There is nothing Righteous to battle against in the Kingdom of God. The Experience of Harmony lies in Dwelling first. He that Dwelleth in The Kingdom of God resides there. Within the Secret Place is Truth, Harmony and Peace. God’s Peace is beyond words and thoughts, It is Felt and Known. Being still, waiting and Dwelling leads us in the path of Righteousness. Freedom is God’s Love. ~Al Denninger

“This incident of David's encounter with Goliath contains within it a magical secret. David said, ‘I come to thee in the name of the Lord of hosts.’ That is the mystery; that is the miracle; that is the magic; that is the secret! What he really was saying was, ‘I do not come to you with physical power. I do not come to you with physical might. I have not come with a weapon stronger than the one you have fashioned. No, I have come to you with no weapon at all: I come in the name of God.’ When the disciples came to the Master so proud and happy that they had been given power over the devil—‘even the devils are subject unto us through thy name’—they were rebuked, ‘Rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven.’ What did he mean when he told them not to rejoice that the devils were subject unto them? Simply that there was no power to be subject unto them! There is no power to be subject unto you. You are living in the name and nature of God, and in that name and nature there is no other power. That is why there is no weapon formed against you that can prosper: not because you have any defense, not because you have any weapon over evil, but because you stand in the name and nature of God.” ~Joel S Goldsmith

I Samuel 17:44,45 KJV
44 And the Philistine said to David, Come to me, and I will give thy flesh unto the fowls of the air, and to the beasts of the field.

17 No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is of me, saith the Lord.

Ephesians 6:10-11 KJV
10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.
11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

Stand ye still, in the Father’s protection, and Know that I Am the One and only God. No thing can stand against the Omnipotent Power of the Spirit. Be strong and courageous of heart and joyfully honor and follow the Will of God all of the rest of your Life. Appearances have no power at all, take no thought about them. ~Al Denninger

“David and Goliath

The story of David and Goliath illustrates the power of the powerless, that power which to our sense is not power. Goliath is represented as a giant, not only a physical giant, but one clad in an impregnable armor which no power could penetrate. Nothing could reach him; nothing could harm him; and nothing could destroy him because he was so well armed that he was invincible and undefeatable by any weapon that up to that time had been conceived or formed. But what happened to this invincibility? A little mite of a fellow came along with a few stones, and just one of those tiny little stones ended the career of this mighty giant clothed in heavy armor. Could anything be more fantastic than the thought of a little stone leveling a giant, and a well-protected giant at that?” ~Joel S Goldsmith

I Samuel 17:34-37 KJV
34 And David said unto Saul, Thy servant kept his father's sheep, and there came a lion, and a bear, and took a lamb out of the flock:
35 And I went out after him, and smote him, and delivered it out of his mouth: and when he arose against me, I caught him by his beard, and smote him, and slew him.
36 Thy servant slew both the lion and the bear: and this uncircumcised Philistine shall be as one of them, seeing he hath defied the armies of the living God.
37 David said moreover, The Lord that delivered me out of the paw of the lion, and out of the paw of the bear, he will deliver me out of the hand of this Philistine. And Saul said unto David, Go, and the Lord be with thee.

Isaiah 54:17 KJV
17 No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is of me, saith the Lord.

Psalms 34:14 KJV
14 Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it.

Romans 8:28 KJV
28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

The Power of Good stops appearances of evil in its tracks no matter what the odds appear to be. David was Invincible clothed in the Full Armor of God and not in the man-created version. David sets the example to seek ye first the Kingdom of God, pursue Peace, don't be afraid of God's Orders and Act according to His Will. The Lord is nigh unto those following and distant to those wandering. ~Al Denninger

“The one great failing of the religious world has been believing that God was a great power, sometimes even and panics. Five thousand years of history should have great enough to heal disease or stop wars, depressions, proved to us that God is not such a power. God does not stop wars: this is brought about when the enemy runs out of ammunition. God does not heal disease: either some form of materia medica does this, or some spiritually endowed individual who has come to the realization of Omnipotence and therefore can look upon disease as the ‘arm of flesh’ or nonpower. Always remember that we are not dealing with a great power or a power supreme over other powers: we are dealing with an individual acknowledgment; we are standing fast in one Power, besides which there are no other powers." ~Joel S Goldsmith

John 8:30-32 KJV
30 As he spake these words, many believed on him.
31 Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed;
32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

John 4:19-24 KJV
19 The woman [the woman at the well] saith unto him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet.
20 Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.
21 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father.
22 Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews.
23 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.
24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.

John 16:13-15 KJV
13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.
14 He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you.
15 All things that the Father hath are mine: therefore said I, that he shall take of mine, and shall shew it unto you.

2 Corinthians 10:3-7 KJV
3 For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh:
4 (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;)

5 Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;
6 And having in a readiness to revenge all disobedience, when your obedience is fulfilled.
7 Do ye look on things after the outward appearance? if any man trust to himself that he is Christ's, let him of himself think this again, that, as he is Christ's, even so are we Christ's.

The Truth is in plain Sight, for those with Eyes to See. I am in awe, and oh so very Grateful... The Spirit seems to Open the Bible for me—the Word—all by Itself... Jesus, John and Paul have Given us this beautiful Gift, not to look at the outward appearance, but to Trust in God…. I can of mine own self do nothing—the Spirit within doeth the Work... In Spirit and in Truth… Continuing in Your Word, Father… Casting down imaginations... Knowing the Truth, from Spirit, to Spirit… And so are we Free… Receiving so of Mine… And so are we Christ’s…. Standing fast in One Power… ~Al Denninger

“Often you may have to say, ‘Get thee behind me, Satan.’ I am not taking up the sword; I am not resisting or refuting: I am standing fast in Omnipotence, standing fast in the realization that there cannot be two powers if Omnipotence is the truth. Then it may be that the problem becomes more insistent, although in one or two instances the problem may disappear. Do not be too heartened, however, if it does, because you will still have those days ahead when a problem of your own or your family, or a headline in a newspaper, will tempt you to accept a destructive power in the world, an evil force or an erroneous condition, and you will be called upon specifically and concretely to bring to conscious remembrance once again the word Omnipotence, All-power, one Power—not one power over another power because there are not two powers in the spiritual kingdom, one to be used against another. There is only one Power, and the secret of harmonious living is the acknowledgment and recognition of one Power.” ~Joel S Goldsmith

Matthew 4:10 KJV
10 Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.

Matthew 6:10 & 13 For thine KJV
10 Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
13 ...For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.

Romans 1:20 KJV
20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:

Ephesians 6 KJV
6 One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.

Revelation 19:6 KJV
6 And I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of mighty thunderings, saying, Alleluia: for the Lord God omnipotent reigneth.

Philippians 3:13-14 KJV
13 Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before,
14 I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

Distractions can seem to be all to often in our Spiritual Journey. It sometimes seems like the closer we get to Attainment the louder the temptations get. Stop. Stand ye still. There is only One Power, One Source. God is always in you all, and is found and Realized at a time when you think not. Set yourselves in quiet place and refocus. Press toward the Mark. ~Al Denninger

The Daily Lesson – February 8, 2026

“At any moment that a problem of any nature begins to come to your attention, instantly remember that you are not to take up the sword—not the mental sword or the physical sword—but that you are to relax and resist not evil in the realization of Omnipotence. The next three or four days of your life may be very miserable because when you begin a work of this kind, it seems, as in the case of Jesus when he began his ministry and the devil jumped up at him with three temptations, that two or three devils manage to find you, and each of them has two or three temptations for you. So the first few days may be really rugged.” ~Joel S Goldsmith

Luke 4:8-14 KJV
8 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Get thee behind me, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.
9 And he brought him to Jerusalem, and set him on a pinnacle of the temple, and said unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down from hence:
10 For it is written, He shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee:
11 And in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone.
12 And Jesus answering said unto him, It is said, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.
13 And when the devil had ended all the temptation, he departed from him for a season.
14 And Jesus returned in the power of the Spirit into Galilee: and there went out a fame of him through all the region round about.

II Chronicles 20:10-17 (to ;) KJV
10 And now, behold, the children of Ammon and Moab and mount Seir, whom thou wouldest not let Israel invade, when they came out of the land of Egypt, but they turned from them, and destroyed them not;
11 Behold, I say, how they reward us, to come to cast us out of thy possession, which thou hast given us to inherit.
12 O our God, wilt thou not judge them? for we have no might against this great company that cometh against us; neither know we what to do: but our eyes are upon thee.
13 And all Judah stood before the Lord, with their little ones, their wives, and their children.
14 Then upon Jahaziel the son of Zechariah, the son of Benaiah, the son of Jeiel, the son of Mattaniah, a Levite of the sons of Asaph, came the Spirit of the Lord in the midst of the congregation;
15 And he said, Hearken ye, all Judah, and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem, and thou king Jehoshaphat, Thus saith the Lord unto you, Be not afraid nor dismayed by reason of this great multitude; for the battle is not yours, but God's.
16 To-morrow go ye down against them: behold, they come up by the cliff of Ziz; and ye shall find them at the end of the brook, before the wilderness of Jeruel.
17 Ye shall not need to fight in this battle: set yourselves, stand ye still, and see the salvation of the Lord with you, O Judah and Jerusalem: fear not, nor be dismayed;

Zechariah 4:6 KJV
6 Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the word of the Lord unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the Lord of hosts.

Whether you are presented with a personal temptation or if you are a mighty King a huge multitude is about to attack your people, the answer is always the same: don’t get tempted to battle. The key is in the lack of reaction to lies. You don’t need to fight or resist a temptation. Whenever you know not what to do, put your Eyes upon the Salvation of the Lord. Stand ye still right there and then and return in the Power of the Spirit and the temptation will destroy itself. There cannot be darkness and Light at the same time. There is no Power separate and apart from God. Resist not. ~Al Denninger
