Trust in the name of the LORD. God's divine names are indicative and expressive of the wisdom, love, and power that operate, process, and manifest attributes of the Supreme, Absolute, Infinite, and Eternal, who reign as the King, Master, and Sovereign of the manifest and unmanifest. Alignment with God's divine names are principles and attributes that enlighten, empower, and enable one to overcome the challenges of existence and manifest the purpose of God, in that which he has created, formed, and made. It is God's will that all of his creations exemplify the beauty and splendor of God's spirit. The great task is drawing down the emanations from the higher dimensions and thereby being filled and reflecting the beauty and splendor of divinity. You need to be in environments where holy angels can dwell and enrich your life. The beautiful goal is in your spiritual countenance emanating blessings for your community and dwellings. Allow the names of God that are holy vibrations to dwell with you so that the unity of God's divine presence fills the atmosphere wherever you are. Restrict and rebuke the forces and entities of evil. Uproot the evil intentions and influences. Be a vessel through which God's emanations can dispel darkness. Be one who demonstrates that God is the master of the universe. Your spiritual heritage is boundless. Welcome the all-bountiful spirit of God manifesting in your life. Seek to display the light of God's will to others so that they see your light shine and glorify God. Serve and lift falling humanity. Seek the light with gladness. Read the 146th Psalm this month.

Many are lost and lack the truth. Most do not have the necessary foundation of understanding and compassion to serve in a better manner and construct a better life. Teach others the best way to have a fulfilled life and help them avoid hardships and difficulties because they are unlearnt or do not have the understanding needed to be successful and overcome the challenges of existence. Give clear directions. Simplicity is required to be successful in communicating. Share your insights rather than scold others for not knowing. Be willing and patient as you open the doors of understanding and the windows of enlightenment. Be firm only as necessary, but always with the interest and intent to make the circumstances and characters of others better. In doing so you are delivering souls from the bondage of darkness. You will be liberating the minds with truth. You are awakening the heart with compassion. Be a flaming light that enlightens others so they may become living lights to ignite the flame of truth in others. Do not look down on those you are helping; look up to the higher vibratory presence and dimensions of divinity, and you will successfully lift and enlighten their minds and souls. Give to others in a manner that expresses God's love and reflects God's image. Empathize with the ones who need your support. Read the 105th Psalm this month.

Stop submerging the truth and the spirit of God that is within. Seek to express the boldness of divinity in beauty and in power. Do not be ashamed; let your spirit shine. Do not perceive boldness as being boastful, rude, or disrespectful. Boldness is standing with the truth of God. Boldly whisper the truth to recapture receptive souls. Be boldly silent in the face of those who would have you speak when the conditions are not suitable, or their minds are not receptive to receiving the truth. Your strength is in determining the right manner and the right season. It is in knowing the sheep that ought to be fed and having the strength to rebuke the dogs of misunderstanding and contention, as well as the swine, whose greed will have them misuse divine principles to fulfill their selfish desires. Be bold in providing inspiration to truth seekers. Help those who are lamenting due to their misunderstanding and lack of truth. The power of prayer would greatly aid you in your purpose and divine mission to assist and deliver other souls from illusions of carnal life. Help others to understand their true self and their self-worth. Assisting others in overcoming their destructive behavior and confusion will define who you are as a child of the Most High God. Read the 115th Psalm this month.

Silence is the key to balancing your life and status with God. There's a time to speak and a time to keep silent. In silence grows the seeds of prayer. In silence, listen to hear the whispers of wisdom. In silence, one can receive particles of light as they rain down from the higher dimensions. In silence, one can hear the prophetic words of divinity. In maintaining silence, the truth is not profane and kept hidden from the unrighteous. In silent study, you will discover the unadulterated truth of God. Seek God's face. Seeking God's face means seeking divine wisdom and, in all thy getting, get an understanding. Many souls are crying out in silence. Individuals do not realize that they are causing their souls great grief by their manner of living. They descend into the carnal life and cause their very soul to weep in agony. Your soul's task is to help fallen humanity from descending into greater depths of confusion and destructiveness. In your inner silence, seek divine guidance to fulfill the tasks of your soul. Do not complain about your journey. Silent patience is necessary. Plea for the souls who receive you and desire an understanding that will awaken their divine minds. Do not turn such souls away. Allow the wheat to grow with tare in silence. Stay attuned to God's will and receive divine power. Read the 11th Psalm this month.

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.
