My dear readers, forgive me for not posting sooner. Life is busy and so much is coming to me that I haven’t settled down to write, but early this morning the Spirit brought some clarity I’ll share here.

I have been following Randy Kay on Destiny Image [YouTube] interviewing people about their NDEs. The one I watched/listened to Saturday while I was ironing pillowcases at the motel was:

Rosemary Thornton was bleeding to death from a surgery in France when she was taken up above the bed, away from her body, and saw Jesus face to face. The things she said about her visit with Jesus brought revelation to me. Rosemary described being so intimate with Jesus that she was the only one He was with.

I know that in Him I live and move and have my being, that I am no longer my own because Christ lives in me. I know the fullness of God in Christ is within me. All these things I believe because that’s what the Bible says, but I am gaining deeper understanding.

Being made in God’s image, Kat Kerr says, “Your soul has layers like the pages of a book.” It holds parts of everything you put in it, which is why we have emotional ties, both good and bad, from the people we interact with and the things we spend our time on. This is the same with God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, each has layers. Because of this, we have a layer of the God Head inside us when we accept Jesus and Father, Son, and Spirit are in each Believer. Note: each layer is a full part of God, not just a piece! The layers of God are infinite, which is how He can be all over heaven and earth at the same time He’s in our own hearts. Remember, heaven has no clocks and no time restraints!

So, the revelation that came early this morning is each of us has a personal audience with Jesus all the time. Think about that! All you need to do is accept Jesus as your personal savior, then you have access to Him all the time. This relationship means I can turn to Him like He’s walking beside me, attentively listening and responding. I believe when I sit, He’s also sitting with me, which reminds me of a book I once read called Two Chairs.

As we grow in relationship with the God of the Universe, let us grow more intimate with the One who created us. He knows all about each one of us, everything that’s going on and everything that will go on. Psalm 139 tells us He has been from the end to the beginning, has come behind us to shield us from the hurts of our past, and goes before us making the way clear. [my paraphrase of The Passion Translation]

O Lord, You have searched me and known me.
² You know my sitting down and my rising up;
You understand my thought afar off.
³ You comprehend my path and my lying down,
And are acquainted with all my ways.
⁴ For there is not a word on my tongue,
But behold, O Lord, You know it altogether.
⁵ You have hedged me behind and before,
And laid Your hand upon me.
⁶ Such knowledge is too wonderful for me;
It is high, I cannot attain it. Psalm 139 NKJ

On another note, have you ever thought about living to be 120 as God stated in Genesis?

 Genesis 6:3 And the Lord said, “My Spirit shall not strive with man forever, for he is indeed flesh; yet his days shall be one hundred and twenty years.”

Saturday evening, after finishing work at the motel, a quick supper, and getting to church by 5 to help with worship at our 6 PM service, I met a man named Joe who is 94 years old. I would have guessed he was in his late 70s. We chatted for over an hour after church and I observed he has his own teeth, a good mind, hears well, and sees well with glasses, walks upright, and doesn’t have “old man” breath! He still has a car and drives once in a while and was telling me he’s got a sore spot on his back from a chair giving way from under him at a picnic he was at with his daughter’s family, but it’s healing well. The joy of the Lord was evident, and I believe he has grown close like Moses did and is healthy and glowing from being in the Presence. I have friends who are 84 & 85 and still healthy and getting around well, which is making me think more about living to be 120!

I am using Kevin Zadai’s 60 Day Healing Devotional for my quiet time and gaining faith that I can live in divine health and share with others to encourage them that they also can be healed and healthy. Yes, some days I look at being eleven months away from 60 years old and can’t conceive living twice this long, but then I get excited and contemplate how many great-great grandchildren I would meet and what mighty works of God I would see. Dream with me, dear ones! I’ll leave you with another sky photo. Shalom!
