The Words of Jesus of Nazareth by Lee Cantelon

Always

As my Father has sent me, so I send you.

Go therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Go into the world, and proclaim this good news to all people. Those that believe and are baptized will discover salvation; but those that believe not will be lost.

Attend the promise of the Father, which you have heard from me. John, called the Baptizer, cleansed his followers by immersing them in water, but you will be made new by the very breath of God.

You will receive new power when the breath of God has come among you; and you will be my witnesses, beginning here in Jerusalem , Judea, and Samaria , to the uttermost parts of the earth.

Breathe deep the breath of God. Teach, even as I have taught you. And remember that I am with you always, even to the end of the world.

Receive the Holy Spirit!

Abba, Father, Lord God, thankful and humble, I seek to be less of me and more of Your Spirit which because of Jesus lives in me to guide, to convict, to mold me into Your image by likening my heart to His, through His living Words. O that this would be the Christmas that opens all hearts, ears and eyes to the truth in Jesus, and He would become the reason for the season in our hearts, minds and acts. In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, Amen.

A man who governs his passions is master of the world. We must either command them, or be enslaved by them. It is better to be a hammer than an anvil.

2 Samuel 7:1-5, 8-12, 14, 16

12  When your days are fulfilled and you lie down with your fathers, I will raise up your offspring after you, who shall come forth from your body, and I will establish his kingdom.  14  I will be his father, and he shall be my son. When he commits iniquity, I will chasten him with the rod of men, with the stripes of the sons of men;  16  And your house and your kingdom shall be made sure for ever before me; your throne shall be established for ever.’" 
Psalm 89:2-5, 27, 29

27  And I will make him the first-born, the highest of the kings of the earth.  29  I will establish his line for ever and his throne as the days of the heavens. 
Romans 16:25-27

25  Now to him who is able to strengthen you according to my gospel and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery which was kept secret for long ages  26  but is now disclosed and through the prophetic writings is made known to all nations, according to the command of the eternal God, to bring about the obedience of faith — 27  to the only wise God be glory for evermore through Jesus Christ! Amen. 
Luke 1:26-38

Audio books I am listening to and other books or readings I am reading:

The Processes: Ask and It Is Given, Volume 2 (Unabridged) Ask and It Is Given, by Esther and Jerry Hicks, which presents the teachings of the nonphysical entity Abraham, will help you learn how to manifest your desires so that you’re living the joyous and fulfilling life you deserve. As you listen, you’ll discover powerful processes that will help you go with the positive flow of life. It’s your birthright to live a life filled with everything that is good, and this audio program will show you how to make it so in every way!

There’s No Such Thing as "Business" Ethics (Unabridged) Best-selling author and expert on leadership John C. Maxwell claims there is only one rule for business. How does a person judge what is ethical? Sometimes it’s clear. You know Enron’s leaders were in the wrong. But is it always easy to see where the line is in your life? What’s the standard? And can it work in all situations? John C. Maxwell thinks it can. When the New York Times best-selling author, successful businessman, and former pastor was asked about his thoughts on business ethics, his response was, "There’s no such thing. There’s only ethics." Maxwell asserts there’s one ethical standard for all behavior. And you might be surprised by what it’s based on. Did you know that a variation of the Golden Rule exists in every major religion? In There’s No Such Thing as Business Ethics, Maxwell shows how people can live with integrity by using the Golden Rule as their standard (regardless of religion, culture, or circumstances). Along the way, he delves into the desires of the human heart, reveals the five most common causes that get people off track ethically, and teaches how to develop the Midas touch when it comes to integrity.

The Words of Jesus of Nazareth by Lee Cantelon

An Invitation to Life

Everyone who believes in the Son will have life everlasting.

Whoever hears my word and believes in the One who has sent me will find eternal life and not be condemned. Instead, they will pass from death unto life. Do not be amazed at this, for the time is coming when even the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear his voice shall live. In their graves, the dead will recognize his voice and be raised up; those that have done good will be raised to new life, and those who have lived wrongfully will be raised to condemnation.

Herein lies the way to eternal life: know the only true God and Jesus Christ, the one sent to you by God. Take my words to heart. For God so loved the world that he offered his only Son a living sacrifice, that whoever believes in him will not perish, but be redeemed and have everlasting life. This good news of the kingdom shall be preached to the entire world as a witness to all nations; and then shall the end come.

Abba, Father, Lord God, thankful I seek humility above all, empting myself for Jesus to do His work in me; likening my heart to His, making my spirit one with You. Thank You for this day and for the awareness that is feeling Your presence and hand at work in me. In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, Amen.

God never deserts a man, unless He is deserted by that man first. For even if a man shall have committed grievous sins once, twice, and a third time, God still looks for him, "so that he may be converted and live."

— St. Caesarius of Arles

Isaiah 7:10-14

10  Again the LORD spoke to Ahaz,  11  "Ask a sign of the LORD your God; let it be deep as Sheol or high as heaven."  12  But Ahaz said, "I will not ask, and I will not put the LORD to the test."  13  And he said, "Hear then, O house of David! Is it too little for you to weary men, that you weary my God also?  14  Therefore the Lord himself will give you this sign: the virgin shall be with child, and bear a son, and shall name him Immanuel.  24  With bow and arrows men will come there, for all the land will be briers and thorns;  25  and as for all the hills which used to be hoed with a hoe, you will not come there for fear of briers and thorns; but they will become a place where cattle are let loose and where sheep tread. 
Psalm 24:1-6

1  The earth is the LORD’s and the fulness thereof, the world and those who dwell therein;  2  for he has founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the rivers.  3  Who shall ascend the hill of the LORD? And who shall stand in his holy place?  4  He who has clean hands and a pure heart, who does not lift up his soul to what is false, and does not swear deceitfully.  5  He will receive blessing from the LORD, and vindication from the God of his salvation.  6  Such is the generation of those who seek him, who seek the face of the God of Jacob. [Selah] 
Luke 1:26-38

26  In the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God to a city of Galilee named Nazareth,  27  to a virgin betrothed to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin’s name was Mary.  28  And he came to her and said, "Hail, full of grace, the Lord is with you!"  29  But she was greatly troubled at the saying, and considered in her mind what sort of greeting this might be.  30  And the angel said to her, "Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God.  31  And behold, you will conceive in your womb and bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus.  32  He will be great, and will be called the Son of the Most High; and the Lord God will give to him the throne of his father David,  33  and he will reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there will be no end."  34  And Mary said to the angel, "How shall this be, since I have no husband?"  35  And the angel said to her, "The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you; therefore the child to be born will be called holy, the Son of God.  36  And behold, your kinswoman Elizabeth in her old age has also conceived a son; and this is the sixth month with her who was called barren.  37  For with God nothing will be impossible."  38  And Mary said, "Behold, I am the handmaid of the Lord; let it be to me according to your word." And the angel departed from her.
