MISCELLANEOUS NOTES ON SUPPLY
The word of God is supply.
We must open our consciousness to receive the word of God.
Without the word of God we have no supply.
God’s grace is infinite, omnipresent and without favor.
God’s grace is omnipresence
When I open my consciousness, I receive it in my spirit.
Then it translates itself into food, clothing, money.
Our only activity is receptivity.
We don’t stand with a begging bowl.
We only need to do those things that are necessary.
In the early part of our awakening, we must return to open our Consciousness 5-6-7 times a day.
God never said that husbands should support their wives.
God’s grace will also fall on females.
We’re each going to realize that as we receive grace from God we’ll contribute more to each other.
Eventually neither male nor female will have to work for a living.
More and more it will appear that both sexes are dependant on the kingdom of God.
As we open our consciousness in prayer we open to life and love.
Through the silence we open to God grace: life and love.
The life of God is not disease.
Love is the substance or fulfillment of supply.
Praying for food and clothing and housing is paganism.
God’s Love is the substance of all form.
We are opening our Consciousness to the substance of all form.
We are realizing that God’s grace is closer to us than breathing.
This is God’s grace and God’s supply.
When the religious world doesn’t receive His supply it’s because God doesn’t have material things:
He doesn’t know these things.
You cannot ask God for anything.
It would be like telling Him You don’t know what I need, so I’ll tell You.
All that the Father hath is mine.
All that the Father is is mine.
The kingdom of God is within you.
I and my Father are One.
Thy grace is my sufficiency.
We are receptive to the love of God within us.
The ears are open, the mind is awake.
I and my Father are One whether I am a saint or a sinner.
The adulterer, the syphilitic, the thief on the cross all received God’s grace.
When?
The moment they opened their consciousness to it!
There are things that are wrong with many of us that none of the ministers and none of the doctors can cure.
Trying to become good before we go to God it’s like putting the cart before the horse.
Let’s go to God before we are good and find that the going to God provides the goodness!
Let us forget for a moment whether we are Saint or sinner.
Let us forget whether we are male or female.
Let us forget whether we have some measure of spiritual attainment.
Let us forget all that
Let us open our Consciousness to Divine Grace.
Thy grace is my sufficiency.
Thy grace is omnipresent.
Whether I am at this moment a saint or sinner.
Thy grace is my sufficiency in sickness and in health.
God has never disinherited anyone.
This is the secret of the spiritual life.
In that moment when you open your Consciousness to the nature of the Divine, though your sins are scarlet you are white as snow.
Sometimes our sins – our human traits – persist, but ignore that.
From the moment that your Consciousness is open to receive an inner Grace – from that moment on your sins begin to be dissolved.
For some people it’s an instantaneous process.
From that moment that you have opened your consciousness the penalties begin to be dissolved and you commence to live under grace.
Outwardly it may appear as if nothing has happened for a while.
Or in some cases something the very dramatic begins to happen.
But the point is this, we live by grace.
We live by grace and in the moment that we recognize this and abide in the truth we live not by might nor by power.
We do not live by our brains, our virtues.
We live by divine grace.
From that moment on as we abide in the memory of that the new way opens – not always as quickly as we would like.
But be assured they are disappearing from the moment that you have recognized I and my father are one and I live by grace – by God’s grace.
The false appetites begin to disappear, the bad habits begin to disappear….
