God Moments

“Knowing that God is in your life, what does that do? That empowers you as a child of God. Do you realize the energy you are pulling in when you recognize that? It just comes flying in. Then you have this energy and that energy goes out in waves into all of your circumstances, into your world and that world is transformed, not by you but by that energy that you are pulling in.

We have a good advantage because we know about energy. We know that energy is something that we can direct. It is not out there doing to us. It is in here doing for us. When you get your thoughts in alignment with that God moment, you recognize that God is present now, this moment, right here in this room, right where you are sitting, right where I am standing, right here is God.

God is all powerful. There is nothing outside of God. So, what enemy could there be? There can be none. What circumstances are greater than God? There can be none because there is nothing outside of God.

So you have all of this energy, all of this energy that is here to obey you. How do you make it obey you? By pleading and begging and saying ‘Oh dear God’? No. You make it work for you by claiming the Godness that is in you and that is not hard.

        You leave guilt and all of the ideas about sin behind. You don't bother about them. You recognize the beauty, the truth, the love that is God and you hold to that. You don't care where you are. I don't care what is going on in your life. I don't care how down in the dumps you think you can get. Every moment is a God moment. Every moment.

      You can claim the Godness in your life simply by turning your life to God. As I said in the beginning, all you have to do is just think God. You don't have to think past that. That is in itself a recognition. That is the part that says, ‘I know you are present. I know we are together.’ That is a powerful thought. You and God make a we. When you affirm we are together, you are joining yourself with that power and that power is there for you to use. God gave it to you when He created us. He gave us everything that we would ever need to live abundantly: abundant love, abundant joy, abundant happiness, whatever.

Decide in the morning to be the child of God for the day. Recognize your God moments. Make it a conscious thing. Does that mean you stand on a street corner with a little goatee and sandals on your feet and preach? No, you don't do that.

This is not about outside stuff. This is about inside stuff. This is about the spirit in us that is in the likeness of God. It is about the energy that we have to use that is available, that is real. It is not some airy-fairy idea, ‘Wouldn't it be nice if…’  This is real stuff and we have it to use. God doesn't say, ‘Well, I have all of this energy, but I am not giving you any.’

This is part of what we are, this is how we create all of the chaos because we have power. How do you think you got yourself in the mess you are in if it wasn't using your own power? Really, you do. You use your own power whether you know it or not. So why not know it for the good stuff? Why not know it for the energy of a blessing? Why not know it for the grace that God gives us? Why not know it for that holy presence?

This is what life is about, to live joyously, fully, freely, to live it in a way that is so full of the God spirit in you that you radiate it. You don't have to get up and preach. All you have to do is be it. Just be it and you be it by recognizing it, by knowing that each moment is a God moment.

It works. I have done it. I have proven it. I have a beautiful home in Florida and I don't pay rent. I work for God and he pays my bills. Everyone does the same thing only you don't know it. You have to know it. Once you know it, it happens and it is using your power, your energy. Having your God moments is where it is all at.

This healing we just did, I could feel the power in the room. I could sense the areas where it was being soaked and taken right in and I could sense the little pockets of resistance. Well, if you want to keep your problems, be my guest. But if you want to really have God moments, then let them happen.

You don't make them happen. You let them happen. You allow them to present themselves in grace, in blessings, in love, in joy, in peace, and in the ability to make a decision and not be afraid that it is the wrong one. You can't have fear and a God moment at the same time. You have to choose which one you want to keep and that is your choice, always your choice.”
