"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life". John 3:16 Love is indeed in the air; let it fill your heart today!  However, it's essential to remember that love is not just a feeling; it's a powerful force that transforms lives. As the renowned author and theologian C.S. Lewis once said, “Though our feelings come and go, God's love for us does not.” This unwavering love is the essence of our faith and the foundation upon which we build our lives.  John 3:16 beautifully illustrates the depth of God's love: “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son…” This verse serves as a reminder that God's love is all-encompassing and ever-present. It reaches into the darkest corners of our hearts and brings healing, hope, and restoration. When we embrace this truth, we begin to experience a profound transformation that can drive away sin, sickness, loneliness, and despair.  1 John 3:1 says, "Behold what manner of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God. And that is what we are! The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know Him." You cannot be overwhelmed by life's burdens when you inhale God Imagine a weary traveler who stumbles upon a fragrant garden filled with flowers in full bloom. The aroma wraps around them, bringing comfort and peace. Just like that garden, the presence of God's love envelops us, inviting us to draw closer to Him. When we take that step forward, we find rest from hatred and negativity, replacing them with joy and serenity. Psalm 136:1 reminds us, “Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good. His love endures forever.” This enduring love is not only for us but also for those around us. As we share this love, we become vessels of encouragement, spreading hope to others who may be struggling. Let your heart be a beacon of light, reflecting God's love to those in need. Amen. Romans 5:8 says, "But God commended his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." Amen. Prayer for the Day!Heavenly Father, thank You for Your unfailing love that surrounds us every day. Help us to feel its presence in our lives and to share it with others. May we find strength in Your promises and comfort in Your embrace. Guide us to draw closer to You, where true peace resides. In Jesus' name, Amen. 

How well do you know God?Imagine sitting at a coffee shop trying to get to know the person sitting next to you. You politely introduce yourself, share a little bit about your day, and then ask this person their name, or where they're from. Maybe you ask them what they just ordered or what plans they have for the day. Despite your friendly disposition and interest in their life, they never respond. Not once. Do you know them? After spending this time together - do you feel like you know them? Probably not.The way we get to know God is no different. He wants to hear your heart - and share His thoughts, words, and ideas with you. It's a personal conversation... but it has to go both ways. This is where the Faith Experience really begins.

What brings us closer to God?And: Why do we sometimes feel so distant from God?Imagine in the core of your self lies a bright light. This is the Life-light (fitrah), the light you were before your heart began to beat. That true essence of self; a drop of God’s mercy in a potential state. Then that spark is injected in the world to be realized- absorbing experiences, trying to find its way through truth and falsehood; happiness and despair; loss and gain; success and failure; an endless ocean of choices. How well will this fragile essence cope with the vicissitudes of the unfairness of life, and the wheel of fortune?Over time and adaptation the vulnerable life-essence may be forgotten, lost amongst the endless daily choices. Perhaps that quiet inner voice was saying things that seemed inconvenient, inappropriate, or contrary to what you wanted. What you thought was right and proper became stronger. Or, what your heart was trying to tell you did not match with what your outer world seemed to be saying. So that essence seems to have disappeared, as though it got lost in the shuffle. Is it gone? Did it disappear? No. It just got hidden away, forgotten, and unnecessary. But then something comes along to remind you that the non-permanent, immortal part of you needs to be re-awakened, re-invigorated, and re-charged. But there seems to be such thick and many layers between you and the essence that it looks like an impossible fantasy to ever achieve reconnection. Perhaps you remember some of your religious upbringing; bibles, books, movies, music briefly re-kindle that sputtering flame. Or you may seek therapy, meditation, healings, healers, spiritual teachers for a weekend, seminar, course of study, or books on tape. Or perhaps love for another- a spouse, a mate, child, grandchild, teacher may remind you of that spark. Or, it could be an illness, death or crisis that shocks you into a moment of wakefulness. You look around seeing things as if for the first time and you might wonder: Is this the last image I will see? What if these are my last moments? Have I wasted my life? This is often the place where it’s good to ask yourself: what am I attached to? Because that immortal essence you came in to life with is the only thing you can take back with you. Any other focus of your energy will move the transition to that lack-of-materiality state that much more painful. And I know that most of us are really not big fans of pain.What if we could look forward to that moment when we have to let go of all things of this life?And then, when you see yourself without a body or the ability to manipulate matter, that it hits you right between the non-eyes: We see what we are looking for. Wherever you put your focus, whatever you are seeking – that is what appears before you. The only problem may be that it does not come in the form or experience or person that you were expecting. This can certainly lead to many problems. These distractions are what lead you away from God. I don’t have to spell them out. You know what they are. Your expectations are the same as attachments. They interfere with you being with God. If you wish closeness to the Divine, you need to stop imagining what it will be like, or how it will happen. This is the place where Trust becomes important. How much do you trust That Which Created All Of This and Has No Beginning or End, and Manifests in Every Living Thing? Or perhaps you think you can do a better job? Now, as for getting closer to That Which Creates, there is a special divine interface built in to every living thing. This interface is what connects that first Life-Light I spoke of, through the body and all this dSupport the show (http://www.ansarisufiorder.org)

Do you understand the mysteries of God? Imagine that you were a theologian who studied the faith of our Church for many years. Would knowledge of all the theological disciplines of our Church necessarily produce in you an authentic understanding of these mysteries that were studied? No, it wouldn’t necessarily produce understanding. In fact, it is entirely possible that while knowing all about God and all that has been revealed through the ages, you still might lack an authentic understanding of God and the profound mysteries of our faith. Understanding ultimately comes as a gift from God. It’s an infused gift which illumines and enlightens and is obtainable only by a direct and personal revelation from God. Yes, study of the faith and attentiveness to clear articulation of this same faith disposes one to understand, but the inspired gift of Understanding is still required to penetrate and grasp all mysteries of our faith. Understanding is a true gift of God’s Mercy (See Diary #1107).Reflect upon your own understanding of the infinite Mercy of God. How fully do you comprehend this Mercy? Reflect upon all that God has revealed to us throughout history. He has spoken definitively through Scripture and has also spoken definitively through His Church in numerous ways. Reflect upon how fully you grasp all the articles of our faith that have been revealed through the ages. God has spoken in a clear and public way. Now He desires to speak those same truths to you in the depths of your soul. If you are willing to listen, your understanding will open the floodgates of the Mercy of God.Lord, there are so many truths that I do not fully grasp. Your life and Your workings are glorious and mysterious all at once. Give me the grace of Understanding so that I may penetrate the depths of Your Truth and Your Mercy. I open myself to You, dear Lord. Jesus, I trust in You.

Everything he was involved in was carried out with all his heart; and he prospered. "This Hezekiah did throughout all Judah, and he did what was good and right and true before the Lord his God. And in every work that he began in the service of the house of God, in the law and in the commandment, to seek his God, he did it with all his heart. So he prospered." [2 Chronicles 31:20-21] All people should live a life that is right before God, but leaders especially have a greater responsibility to do so. With that responsibility comes an attendant blessing. When you are in the arena, you will be shot at. If you want to be used greatly by God, then make your mind up ahead of time that you are NOT going to quit, and you are NOT going to run away! If you quit, you can't win. But if you don't quit, you'll win! This doesn't mean that you will have the strength or wisdom in your self; but you are determined to stand in faith, believing and drawing upon the resources of God. The Assyrians were a cruel and treacherous military force. They resorted to terrible means of torture and were also a formidable foe. After Hezekiah's deeds of faithfulness, Sennacherib king of Assyria came and entered Judah. He encamped against the fortified cities, thinking to win them over to himself. When Hezekiah saw this, and realized that Sennacherib's purpose was to make war against Jerusalem, he gathered his leaders and commanders together and encouraged them. "Be strong and courageous; do not be afraid nor dismayed before the king of Assyria, nor before all the multitude that is before him: for there are more with us than with him. 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 were strengthened by the words of Hezekiah king of Judah. [2 Chronicles 32:7-8] Because of the impending danger, King Hezekiah and the prophet Isaiah prayed and cried out to heaven. Then the Lord sent an angel who cut down every mighty man of valor, every leader, and every captain in the army of Assyria. So the King of Assyria returned shamefaced to his own land, and was killed by his own family. "And it came to pass on a certain night that the angel of the Lord went out, and killed in the camp of the Assyrians 185,000 men; and when people arose early in the morning, there were the corpses - all dead." [2 Kings 19:35; 2 Chronicles 32:9-23] God still uses angels today. Psalm 34:7 tells us "The angel of the Lord encamps all around those who fear Him, and delivers them." Surely there are many times the angels deliver and protect us and we don't even know about it. But, in addition - like many of the promises of God - we need to KNOW God's Word so we can ACCESS God's resources. We need to appropriate them by faith. We need to BELIEVE and PRAY as Hezekiah did. Vision begins with a purpose ... and that purpose is to SEE the dream become a reality! There are five (5) basic steps in this process:      1. Dream;      2. Plan;      3. Preparation;      4. Logistics; and,      5. Action. In action - and sometimes in the first four steps above - we engage the adversary as Hezekiah did. We implement our plans and put in place those things and people we have prepared, and that the Lord has assigned to us. Then we utilize the resources within our command to take action. Gideon had some clay vessels and candles. Moses had a rod. What is it that God has placed in your hand? What are those things you will BELIEVE God to bring into your access? It is your duty to use your faith. Faith is your servant. Read Luke 17:5-10. Many times it is the thing that is in our hand or our heart that is our greatest resource. Are we turning the gifts of God away through unbelief? Are we afraid to leave our comfort zone? Use your faith - it is your DUTY to use it! I am reminded of a man and his wife who won $1,000,000 USD. When the authorized bearers of the prize tried to contact the couple, they were repeatedly turned away. The man and his wife would not answer their phone calls, or respond to their letters. They thought it was a joke. Finally, the man and his wife decided that they would at least see what the communication was about. The bearers of the prize were authorized one more time to attempt delivery to the man and his wife. They responded at the last minute. How many times do we NOT receive God's MIRACLES because of unbelief, or because of taking things for granted? We have the ability to DREAM and IMAGINE. We can establish a VISION and believe God for its fulfillment. When was the last time you dreamed for God? Imagine what your life and ministry would be like if the present hindrances were removed. One of the great promises in the Holy Bible is found in Jeremiah 33:3. "Call to me, and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things which you do not know." In his book The Weight of Glory, C. S. Lewis said "Our Lord finds our desires not too strong, but too weak." What can you IMAGINE or THINK? For what can you ASK God? "Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us." [Ephesians 3:20] Once your dream is starting to take form - that is, when it becomes a reality - your VALOR will be tested: by God ... and by the enemy of your soul: the devil. You will have to make up your mind ahead of time to be a champion, to be valiant. God is looking for champions like the people of faith who went before us, who "Quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness were made strong, waxed valiant in fight, turned to flight the armies of the aliens." [Hebrews 11:34] As you move out with the VISION, know that God has designed your VICTORY, but you have to have VALOR and stand in faith, calling upon Him for strength, wisdom, and MIRACLES. One thing that will help you is when you realize that God will use your enemy to help promote you: just like He did Pharaoh. God hardened Pharaoh's heart so that the Lord would be SET APART in the eyes of the Egyptians. And so God will use the reality of your vision so that He might be set apart in the eyes of people in every nation, tribe, family, and language of the earth. [Exodus 9:13-16; Romans 9:17] Just as God used angelic ministry to help King Hezekiah and his people, so God will use the angels to help you, if you will PRAY and CRY OUT to Heaven like Hezekiah and Isaiah. The magicians could not stand before Moses [Exodus 9:11], and neither will the enemy's people stand before you. There will be a severance - a setting apart - for God's servants. There is a difference for those anointed for ministry: not "haphazard" ministry, but ministry anointed through prayer, fasting, listening, and obedience! The Lord makes a difference between His people and the people of the enemy. Read prayerfully the following verses; they are God's Word for you at this time:      Exodus 8:23;      Exodus 9:26;      Exodus 11:7 The two most important things you can do to enlarge your VISION and engage the enemy with VALOR are:      1. Sit at the feet of Mashiach Jesus; and,      2. Live holy. Then your VICTORY will be assured! Baruch haba b'Shem Adonai.

What would you tell the believers who are in prison, being persecuted for their faith, about how to reach the world for Messiah? The answer is in this podcast. HOW TO SUCCEED WITH NOTHING MUSIC / INTRO While looking out my window one afternoon, the Lord asked me two questions:      "If you had nothing and had nobody to help you, how would you fulfill the Great Commission?"      "What would you tell the believers who are in prison, being persecuted for their faith, about how to reach the world for Messiah?" I had been meditating that afternoon about such things, and the answer to the two questions the Lord asked came succinctly. I wrote down my answer to the Lord immediately, listing the following seven (7) tools with which to carry out the job ... and win the world for Messiah Yeshua.      1. God's Word, the Holy Bible;      2. Faith;      3. Prayer;      4. Jesus' name;      5. Tongues;      6. Forgiveness; and,      7. Vision. [] GOD'S WORD, THE HOLY BIBLE In the Bible I can find 7,000 promises from God that are available to me, and from which I may appropriate my needs, deliverance, healing, favor, direction, and MIRACLES. I would see in the Bible that God wants me to witness for Christ: to give evidence of what Christ has done for me through my words and actions. I would see that God wants me to lead people to Christ and to train them. [Matthew 18:18-20] This would involve training them to do everything that Jesus had commanded me to do, including baptizing them in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. I could baptize them in rivers, lakes, churches, oceans, bathtubs, or in tarpaulins in the desert. This training would involve teaching them to witness for Christ, and to share their testimony with others. It would also include: preaching and teaching; healing the sick, and casting out demons. I would see the great need of establishing a school "behind every bush" to train believers. In the Bible I would see God's plan for the ages, and God's plan for me. I would see God's plan for the Church: the universal invisible Body of Christ, and the local gathering of believers, whether two or three ... or thousands ... meeting together. Jesus taught us, "For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them." [Matthew 18:20] I would see the importance of establishing local churches: groups of believers who gather to study God's Word, to pray, and to worship Him; and from where the local community and government may be blessed; as well as people in other nations. In the Bible I see God's goals for Planet Earth and the Second Appearing of Messiah Jesus to Jerusalem to establish His kingdom for 1,000 years. I see that before He returns, the Gospel will be proclaimed and published among every nation, race, tribe, people, and ethnic group of the earth. [Mark 13:10] [] FAITH I would use my faith, based upon God's promises in His Word and knowing what God wants (His will made known in His Word), to create and bring things into being. I would use faith, the same kind of faith that Abraham used, to believe God for what He says in His Word.      "Who against hope believed in hope, that he might become the father of many nations, according to that which was spoken, 'So shall your seed be'."      "And being not weak in faith, he [Abraham] considered not his own body now dead, when he was about a hundred years old, neither yet the deadness of Sarah's womb [who was about 90]:      He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God;      And being fully persuaded that, what God had promised, He was able also to perform." [Romans 4:18-21] So ... if you KNOW what God has promised you in His Word, all you have to do is BELIEVE and OBEY ... like Abraham! MUSIC [] PRAYER Jesus taught us, "And all things, whatsoever you shall ask in prayer, believing, you shall receive." [Matthew 21:22]. I would use prayer not only to talk to God and be in close companionship with Him, but also to make my requests known to Him. I would tell Him what I need and want, and ask for advice as to how to operate to achieve my goal. James, the first bishop of the church at Jerusalem, and the Lord's brother, taught us: "If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, Who gives to all men liberally, and does not reprimand for asking; and it shall be given to you." [James 1:5] For an in-depth study of prayer, go to the Archives of The Apostles Group and select the newsletter "How To Talk To God" dated August 11, 2002. [] JESUS' NAME Jesus said, "If you shall ask anything in my name, I will do it." [John 14:14] When you as a believer use the name of Jesus you are identifying with the Master of the universe. It is that name at which demons and Satan tremble, and at which they must become subservient to you. Jesus said, "And these signs shall follow them that believe: In my name they shall cast out demons; they shall speak with new tongues ..." [Mark 16:17] The name of Jesus lets demons know the authority in and under which you are operating. It is not only your Power of Attorney, but it is also your POWER! It is the name which gives you life. "But these are written, that you might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing you might have life through his name." [John 20:31] Use the name of Jesus to not only bring deliverance to others, but to maintain your own freedom, power, and blessing. And so it is with the name of YAHWEH, the Hebrew name of The LORD: the self existent One. "The name of the LORD is a strong tower: the righteous run into it, and are safe." [Proverb 18:10] [] TONGUES Tongues, the language of the Spirit, is the software that makes it possible for you to decree supernaturally. When you speak in faith, based upon God's Word and will, you decree miraculously. However, there are times when you do NOT know what to decree ... OR ... how to speak the proper programming language. Tongues, the language of the Holy Spirit, enables the believer in Christ to accomplish this. For an in-depth study of how to attain this power and blessing, go to the website at www.realmiracles.com and select Advanced Studies from the BLUE navigation bars at the left of any page. In the Advanced Studies section, select the five (5) volume series titled "How To Receive God's Power" (DCC 9 through 13). MUSIC [] FORGIVENESS Yesterday, a person who is not a Christian asked me this question: "In what area of your life are you most often challenged to use your faith?" I didn't have to think long. My answer was, "In the area of forgiveness." This is an area in which we need to make sure we are "clear" at the start of every day. And, actually, at the end of every day! I remember as a little boy, one night just after I had covered up in bed, my older sister said to me, "Daddy told us never to go to bed mad at each other." And then we made up with each other. The Holy Bible tells us, "Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath." [Ephesians 4:26] It may not be a wrathful or angry situation that is bothering you. It may be a strained relationship, bad thoughts towards someone, a word of gossip. Or, it may be nothing you've done wrong; it may be something someone has said or done to you ... or said about you ... and that is bothering you, especially if you are undeserving of the words or action. Jesus taught us, "For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you: But if you forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses." [Matthew 6:14-15] Unforgiveness is something you can't take to Heaven! In Mark 11:22-26, Jesus told the disciples, "Have faith in God." He taught them about speaking in faith, and about receiving in faith. However, he also taught them at the end of this contextual passage that there was something that could hinder them from receiving miracles and answered prayer: it was unforgiveness. "And when you stand praying, forgive, if you have anything against anyone: so that your Father also which is in Heaven may forgive you your trespasses. But if you do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in Heaven forgive your trespasses." [Verses 25 and 26] If God can forgive us of a whole lifetime of sin and disobedience – even sins about which no person on earth knows – can we not forgive someone else for the one, or a few, or even many sins they have committed towards us?! And ... if our Heavenly Father had not made a WAY for us to be forgiven by sending His only Son to die in our place on the cross stake ... we would be under the constant condemnation of death and Hell. How can we not forgive others?! Every day I start my day with what is commonly known as the Lord's Prayer (the disciples prayer He taught them). I clear out any unforgiveness or bitterness so that I can pray successfully and in power ... AND ... so I can experience success. My prayers for myself, friends, associates, and loved ones ... and the prayers for others around the world ... depend upon me forgiving others. "And you be kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake has forgiven you." [Ephesians 4:32] [] VISION When was the last time you "dreamed" for God? IMAGINE! What would your life and ministry be like if your present hindrances were removed? And, what would your life be like if you could accomplish all the things you IMAGINE ... or ASK for? C. S. Lewis, in his book The Weight of Glory, said, " ... our Lord finds our desires not too strong, but too weak!" David succeeded in killing the giant, Goliath, the same way the two men of faith, Caleb and Joshua, succeeded in entering the promise land: because he SAW, as they did, obstacles as opportunities for MIRACLES: avenues through which God could be glorified! The size of the person is more important than the size of the problem. Who are you on the inside and in Whom do you trust! Don't focus on the giants … focus on God. That's why the enemy lies to you. The devil wants to get your attention away from your Heavenly Father: away from His love for you and His ability to provide for you. Study the following newsletters from the Archives of The Apostles Group:      "Remove the Barriers" (May 04, 2003)      "The Vision and the Miraculous" (May 11, 2003)      "An Anointing for Success" (May 18, 2003) Change your thinking. Think BIG. MUSIC Jeshua taught us, "But new wine must be put into new bottles; and both are preserved." [Luke 5:38] Think PAST the limits of your mind. Stretch out your horizon of ENDEAVORS and THOUGHTS. "These things began Jesus both to DO and to TEACH." Base your thoughts, your goals, and your endeavors upon God's Holy Word. Use your faith!      Think BIG!      Believe!      Receive!      Act!      Multiply! To SEE with the mind's eye … that is, to envision … can encompass the following: imagination, thinking, and decision making. To "cut out" with the mind's eye is to SEE IT, or to THINK IT upon the tablet of your heart or human spirit. In Job 22:28 we read, "You shall also decree a thing, and it shall be established unto you..." In the original Hebrew language the word "decree" is a primitive root form of the word "gazar", which means "to cut out exclusively, or to decide". In its primitive form it is used also as a "quarrying" term ... as in cutting out stone from a rock quarry. It means more than to "say" or "speak." It conveys the meaning of "cutting something out in your mind's eye"; that is, "to envision [to make a vision], to decide upon it, and confess it" ... and then it will be established unto you! To decree is the progenitor (or, precursor) of heart belief and mouth confession. It is BOTH the nucleus and "all-encompassing" embryo of initiating great moves of the Holy Spirit on Planet Earth. This is why we need to SPEND TIME MEDITATING GOD'S WORD. We're NOT talking about New Age type meditation, which can actually be used, and even energized, by demonic forces. We're talking about MEDITATING God's Word so we KNOW HOW to work in alignment with our Father in Heaven, Jehovah. Increase your vision. What can you SEE? What can you IMAGINE? How greatly can you ASK or THINK? "Now unto Him that is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ASK or THINK, according to the power that works in us, unto Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen." [Ephesians 3:20, 21] At the beginning of this podcast I shared with you two questions the Lord asked me:      "If you had nothing and had nobody to help you, how would you fulfill the Great Commission?"      "What would you tell the believers who are in prison, being persecuted for their faith, about how to reach the world for Messiah?" I answered those two questions in this teaching. You might ask me: "How do you know what it's like to be in jail for Yeshua?" I know because I HAVE BEEN in jail for Jesus ... for preaching His Gospel. Never teach what you can't do. "The former treatise have I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus began to DO and TEACH." [Acts 1:1] Nine (9) people were saved as a result of the Holy Spirit using me to preach inside the jail cell, plus the Lord gave me victory in one of the largest court cases of this kind. "Then said Yeshua unto him, 'Go, and do thou likewise'." [Luke 10:37] Baruch haba b'Shem Adonai.
