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.
