Watering
the Seed thoughts in Your Mind pt. 4
Brian Kocourek, Pastor
Saturday, April 25, 2009
Isaiah 58:11 “And the Lord
shall guide thee continually, and satisfy thy soul in drought, and make fat thy bones: and thou
shalt be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose water s
fail not.”
Jeremiah 31:12b “Their Soul shall
be as a watered Garden”
Therefore,
everything you are, even your Character comes
forth from the Garden of thought that is in your heart, making you what you
really are. And the Garden of your thoughts affects every thing that is already
in you, not only affecting your character, and molding your character, but even
to the circumstances that you enter into daily, and the way you handle those
circumstances. And God uses those circumstances in shaping of your character
into it’s final product that He has predestined for you.
Therefore, every trial you endure, every test God puts you through,
comes about as a result of the Seed Thoughts that lay within your heart.
Therefore, every thought seed that is sown, or that we allow to fall into the
fertile soil of our minds, to take root there, will produce it’s own, after
it’s own likeness or nature.
Sooner
or later each thought seed we have sown in our hearts will have to take blossom
and become manifested in our lives as an action or deed. And each action or
deed will bear it’s own fruit in terms of opportunity or circumstances. As the
Scripture tells us, good thoughts will bear good fruit and bad thoughts will bear
bad fruit.
Therefore
Loving thoughts create an atmosphere of help, and trust, which crystallize into
habits of Grace, kindness, and charity, which creates further circumstances of
friendliness and cheerful benevolence, and reciprocity on the behalf of those
who are the recipients of your loving thoughts.
Paul
spoke of our Love which is our outward manifestation of our revelation as
something which is reflective of your character inside. 1 Thessalonians 1: 4 Wuest "Remembering unceasingly your works produced and characterized by the Faith which is yours,
and your toil which is motivated and
characterized by your divine and self sacrificial Love, and your patient endurance under trials which
finds it's source in your hope which rests in our Lord Jesus Christ in the
presence of God, even the father."
Do you see how that our Faith, our revelation works
into us an outward expression which brings glory back to god our Father? And
Paul also spoke of the early church in Ephesus as having this outward love towards
all the brethren in Ephesians 1:15 Wherefore
I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and love unto all the
saints, Cease not to give thanks for you, making mention
of you in my prayers; 17 That the God of our Lord
Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and
revelation in the knowledge of him: 18 The eyes of
your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his
calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints,
1 Pet 3:1-7 1 Likewise,
ye wives, be in subjection to your own husbands;
that, if any obey not the word, they also may without the word be won by the
conversation of the wives; 2 While they behold your
chaste conversation coupled with fear.
3 Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold,
or of putting on of apparel; 4 But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is
not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and
quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price. 5 For
after this manner in the old time the holy women also, who trusted in God,
adorned themselves, being in subjection unto their own husbands: 6 Even
as Sara obeyed Abraham, calling him lord: whose daughters ye are, as long as ye
do well, and are not afraid with any amazement. 7 Likewise, ye husbands, dwell
with them according to knowledge, giving honour
unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the
grace of life; that your prayers be not hindered. 8 Finally,
be ye all of one mind, having compassion one of
another, love as brethren, be pitiful, be courteous: 9 Not
rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: but contrariwise blessing;
knowing that ye are thereunto called, that ye should inherit a blessing.
10 For he that will love life, and see good days, let him
refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no guile:
11 Let him eschew evil, and do good; let him seek peace, and
ensue it. 12 For the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and his ears are open unto their prayers: but the face of the Lord is against them that do evil. 13 And who is he that will harm you, if ye be followers of that
which is good? 14 But and if ye suffer for
righteousness' sake, happy are ye: and be not
afraid of their terror, neither be troubled; 15 But
sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be
ready always to give an answer to every man that
asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear:
16 Having a good conscience; that, whereas they speak evil of
you, as of evildoers, they may be ashamed that falsely accuse your good
conversation in Christ. 17 For it is better, if the will of God be so, that ye suffer
for well doing, than for evil doing.
Pure thoughts create an atmosphere of holiness and sobriety, which
crystallize into habits of sanctification and self control, which further
solidify into circumstances of rest and peace.
1Thessalonians 5:23 And
the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray
God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the
coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Romans 6:17-19 But God be thanked, that ye were the
servants of sin, but ye have obeyed from
the heart that form of doctrine which was delivered you. 18 Being then made free from sin, ye became
the servants of righteousness. 19 I speak after the manner of men because of the
infirmity of your flesh: for as ye have yielded your members servants to
uncleanness and to iniquity unto iniquity; even so now yield your members
servants to righteousness unto holiness.
2 Corinthians 7:1 Having therefore these promises,
dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and
spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.
Philippians 4:8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever
things are true, whatsoever things are honest,
whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are
lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there
be any praise, think on these things.
1 Timothy 1:5 Now the end of the
commandment is charity out of a pure heart, and of
a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned:
Hebrews 12:14 Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the
Lord:
Positive thoughts, along with thoughts of courage and decisiveness,
creates within you an atmosphere of assurance, and steadfastness, which will
bring forth circumstances of success, and freedom.
Ephesians 3:11-12 According to the eternal
purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord: 12 In whom we
have boldness and access with confidence by the faith of him.
Hebrews 10: 35-36 Cast not away therefore your
confidence, which hath great recompence of reward. 36 For
ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might
receive the promise.
Hebrews 10:22-24 Let us draw near with a true
heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil
conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water.
23 Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;) 24 And
let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works:
Gentle and forgiving thoughts create an atmosphere of love and trust
which solidify into protective and preservative circumstances, and crystallize
into circumstances which allows you to minister help and forgiveness to others,
which allows those affected to enter into an atmosphere of hope and
reconciliation.
Ephesians 4:31-32 Let
all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put
away from you, with all malice. 32 And be ye kind
one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's
sake hath forgiven you.
Colossians 3:12-14 Put on as
the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of
mind, meekness, longsuffering; 13 Forbearing one another, and
forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ
forgave you, so also do ye.
If
you keep sowing the same particular seed thoughts, be it good or bad, it cannot
help but to create an atmosphere around you which will also affect your
character and the circumstances in which you live.
Now
a garden is a place or a plot
of ground that you specifically set
aside for growing things that you like, whether for food or
for the beauty of just looking at it, such as flowers and roses, etc. A garden
is a place where you sow seeds, and you come to water and cultivate those seeds,
because you have a purpose in mind. And if we do not cultivate our garden,
then other seeds that fall into our garden will compete with the specific thing
we want to harvest. Therefore, we must cultivate the seeds which we want and
root out those things we do not wish to come to harvest.
Now
we don’t go through all that work in taking care of a garden just for the shear
enjoyment turning over soil & breaking rocks, if we did we, then prison
would be fun. But we must have a PURPOSE.
A
garden has to be plotted out, and there must be a PLAN in your mind as
to how you would like to see your garden turn out. For if there is no plan, you
will have an awful time trying to harvest what you sowed. Could you image
planting a garden where you go out and grab a handful of carrot seeds and you
just toss them up in the air, not really caring where they land. Try grabbing a
bag of corn seeds and toss them out onto the ground. Then repeat the same
process with watermelon seeds, radishes, cucumbers, tomatoes, potatoes, beans,
peas, and whatever else you would like to harvest. I imagine the sowing might
easy, but come harvest time, you’re going to have a real mess trying to sort
out just what you sowed.
And
yet this is the way many of us go about our daily lives and especially our
spiritual lives. Can you imagine someone trying to store up earthly treasures
without a plan. And yet that is exactly what we do with storing up Heavenly
treasure. Matt 6:19-20 therefore, Lay not
up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where mothand rust doth corrupt and
where thieves break in and steal: 20 but lay up treasure for yourselves in
heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not
break through nor steal:
Many
of us struggle because we have not learned this first principle of sowing
and reaping. We too often look at the man who is wealthy and we say,
"he’s a crook and that is why he is wealthy". Now, that may be true
in part, but the reason that man is wealthy is because he has applied a
principle of sowing and reaping which many of us are not willing to do. He had
a plan to gain wealth and he was dedicated to that plan and so his whole life
became structured around that that plan, and therefore he reaped what he sowed.
I
have no jealousy for one minute of those who have worked very hard for what
they have. They deserve it. But, I do feel sorry for them in the same way in
which I feel sorry for the poor farmer who loses his crops to hail or tornado.
Many of them, if not the majority of them who are very wealthy, have stored up
their treasure in the wrong place. Because they’ll only be able to enjoy what
they have sown for a season. Therefore, I want what will not become rusted, and
moth eaten. I want that which will truly stay with me all throughout Eternity.
And Jesus told us if we "seek ye first the
Now,
In Matthew 6:27-24 I want you to notice
we are told to take no thought concerning certain things. Now
He is not telling us that these things are not important to us, but that our
thought pertaining to these things needs to be directed, not at those things,
but at the Kingdom of God from whence cometh all good things. In other words,
Jesus is telling them that their focus needs to be on the right thing. This is
the same principle we see in dealing with the poor in very backward countries.
The people are starving to death, and we feel sorry for them, but if we just
feed them, then they will always be dependent upon us. But if we teach them how to sow and reap, then they will
learn how to provide for themselves. Therefore, what we are looking
at is having the right focus. He said take no thought for these specific
things. Take no thought with just the eating, or just the specific piece of
clothing that you need, but focus on where those things come from
and then you will always have plenty. Learn to sew and you shall also reap.
2 Corinthians 7:7-1 0 Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, [so let him give]{so let him sow};
not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver. {This reminds me here of the man whose family had a
poor crop, and they were facing a harsh winter. They had just a bag of grain
left over from the poor harvest and the children cried out to eat it. The
father said, no for if we do then surely we shall die. They made it through the
winter, but it was a real struggle, but when the spring came forth the father
planted his seeds and they brought forth a bountiful harvest. }Now, Paul
continues, [Amplified] And God who
provides seed for the sower and bread for eating will also provide and
multiply your resources for sewing, and increase the fruits of your
righteousness which manifests itself in active goodness, kindness and
charity, and thus you will be enriched in all things and in every way, so that
you can be generous, and your generosity as it is administered by us will bring
forth thanksgiving to God.
And
so, you see, we must have the proper focus and the proper plan if we are to
bring forth out of the garden of our mind, a harvest of Eternal blessing. We
are promised that God, who gave us the seed to begin with will also
multiply that seed as we sow properly. [NIV]
Now He who supplies seed to the sower and
bread for food will also supply and increase your store of seed
and will enlarge the harvest of your righteousness. You
will be made rich in every way so that you can be generous on every occasion,
and through us your generosity will result in thanksgiving to God.
We
know the seed came forth from Him and therefore it already has in it everything
that we will ever need for living and for bringing forth a Character that is in
His Image.
2 Peter 1: 2-4 Grace
and peace be multiplied unto you through t he knowledge of God, and of Jesus
our Lord,3 According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that
pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called
us to glory
and virtue: 4
Whereby are given untous exceeding great and precious promises: that by these
ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corru ption that
is in the world through lust.
Isaiah 60:21 "Thy people shall be all righteous: they shall
inherit the land for ever, the branch of My planting, the work of My
hands, that I may be glorified."
Can you see God’s purpose in His planting?
Isaiah 61:3 "that they might be called trees of righteousness,
the planting of the LORD, that he might be glorified.. Therefore
the purpose of being planted by God is to bring forth His Glory, which is His
thoughts in an expressed form.
In
Ephesians 1: 2-5 We see that we were in
Christ before the world was framed, therefore we are a seed, that was in Him.
And are told here that while we were still in Him we were "Blessed with all Spiritual Blessings in Heavenly
Places in Christ."
And then he goes on to tell us that in order to bring forth these seeds that
were in Him, He had to have a plan.
In
verse 5 we are told that He pre-planned for us to
come forth to the adoption of children to Himself. And this is
according to His Will or plan, which He further elucidates in verses 10-11 where he tells us that it will
happen according to His Purpose (Plan).
Therefore,
I hope you see the importance of having a purpose or plan for every seed
thought that we want to bring forth to harvest. In order to reap we must not
only sow, but we must learn how to sow as well. Because you can not sow just
any which way and expect to reap a harvest that is orderly.
Isaiah 61:11 "For as the earth bringeth forth her bud, and as
the garden causeth the things that are sown in it to spring forth; so the
Lord will cause righteousness to spring forth in the presence of all
nations." Now the garden is laid out with an order to it. As we
see in Genesis 1:11 that everything will
bring forth after it’s own kind, or nature. But even before we see
God laying out this law of reproduction, he first brought together everything
that was of like kind, and then the law of reproduction was given.
Notice
in Genesis 1:9-10 we see that everything
was gathered together with like kind before the law of reproduction was
introduced into His Creation. Therefore, if we are to be able to bring forth
from the garden of our mind in the same way that God has brought forth from His
own mind, we must also follow his Example. Therefore, we must have a purpose
and plan to the things which we wish to sow and harvest. Our gardens must have
an order to it if we expect to reap a good and profitable harvest. Otherwise
you will spend all of your time just trying to sort out what it is that you
have in your garden to begin with. As long as out thoughts are without purpose,
they are allowed to just drift aimlessly and will never bring forth any fruit.
Thoughts which have no purpose fall easily to the anxieties of life, and
pleasure seeking and other things which so easily rob you of victory of Peace
and Grace, and lead you to a life of weakness and self pity. Therefore, we need
to have purpose for our thoughts, and once we have purposeful thinking, we
should set out to accomplish what we purpose.
In
order to do this, our purpose should be that which brings together our thoughts
with our actions, tying together our body, soul and spirit into one energized
being with one focus.
We
should make this purpose our supreme duty, and we should devote ourselves to
the fulfillment of this purpose, not allowing our thoughts to wander away into
ephemeral fancies, longings, and imaginings.
This
is the Royal road to self control and true concentration of thought. And even
if you fail again and again to accomplish your purpose, as you surely will
until your weakness is overcome, the strength of character gained from this
will be the real measure of success, and this will form a new starting point
for future power and triumph. Just look at Thomas Edison, He tried nearly
10,000 times to invent a workable light bulb, and finally he did it. But what
if he had stopped after 9,999 tries?
The
word discourage comes from two words which means to loose your courage. Don’t
be discouraged, be brave, be thoughtful and have a purpose in your heart that
whatsoever you set your mind to do, so shall you finish. after all, are we not
made in our Fathers image? And is not He the Author and Finisher or our Faith.
Did not He say, "That which I have began in
you I will perform it even unto the end"?
And
again from Jehovah Jireh he said, "When you begin to seek the flower bed of ease, you're on
your road out. I like that old poem: Must I be carried home to heaven on a
flower bed of ease, While others fought to win the prize, And sailed through
bloody seas? No, I must fight, if I must reign, Increase my courage, Lord.
And again another Poem he told us goes like this, A man of words and not of deed, Is like a garden full of
weeds. And that is exactly what I have been trying to bring to
us in these message of the garden of the mind. What have we in our garden
tonight, thoughts with Purpose or weeds.
Mighty Conqueror
Standing sometime ago, I was in the
Isaiah 58:11 "And the Lord shall guide thee continually,
and satisfy thy soul in drought, and make fat thy bones: and thou
shalt be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose water s
fail not. "
People
who have no central purpose in life fall easy prey to petty anxieties, phobias,
and cares of this life, and it leads to self-pitying, all of which are
indications of weakness, which weaknesses lead, just as surely as deliberately
planned sins; to failure, unhappiness, and loss. For weakness will not endure
in a world where the devil goes about like a roaring lion seeking whom he may
devour. Just as in nature, the wolf-pack usually looks for the weakest lamb, or
the one straying from the flock, so too does the devil look for the weakest of
the flock to devour.
Therefore
you should have a purpose in your heart, and you should set your sights on
obtaining that purpose. You should make your purpose the centralized focus of
your being. And your purpose should reflect the season which you live. Even God
has a purpose to guide and direct the sum of His own thinking. For without
purpose our thoughts would only drift. When you have purpose guiding your
thoughts, you have a control tower of your thinking, that takes over the
control of your actions and speech as well. Isaiah
14: 24 "The Lord of Hosts hath sworn,
saying, surely as I have thought, so shall it come to pass; and as I
have purposed, so shall it stand."
Next
we must cultivate away any seeds that are not in our desired harvest. If we
have weeds growing up, we must cut them down before they take over our garden.
This must be done on a regular basis, for to fail to do so will allow to grow
and use up the nutrients reserved for the harvest plants, and thus it will
choke off the life of the harvest plant, preventing them from maturing. Matt 13:22-23 He also that
received seed among the thorns is he that heareth the word; and the care of
this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, choke the word, and he becomes
unfruitful. 23 But he that received seed into the good
ground is he that heareth the word, and understands it; which also bears fruit, and
bringeth forth, some an hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.
A
strong man can not help a weaker man who is unwilling to be helped. And even
then the weak man must become strong on his own, for he must by his own
efforts, develop the strength which he admires in others. There is no one
but himself that can alter his condition. He can only rise, conquer and
achieve by lifting up his thoughts. He can only remain weak, and abject, and
miserable by deferring to lift up his thoughts. Arnold Schwartzeneggar began as
a tall, skinny, weakling of a man, but he was determined to change his
situation and he worked and worked until he began to grow muscles that most
people never even thought existed. But he had a purpose and his purpose came
together with his thoughts and gave rise to the icon of the American Hero. I am
sure he had no idea when he began that he would one day live in
In
order to do this, his purpose had to be that which brought together his
thoughts with his energies, and actions, and therefore tying together his body,
and soul into one energized being with one focus.
2 Timothy 1:12 "For I know
whom, I have believed, and am persuaded, that He is Able, to keep that which
I’ve committed, unto Him against that Day. You
are the one who has to make the commitment.
E-35 God In His Word 57-0323
You put me on record tonight in these recorders. I
have no apology for this remark that I'm fixing to make. I believe, and can
prove, that the right mental attitude towards any Divine promise of God will
bring it to pass. Yes, sir. The right mental attitude, but you've got to
have the right attitude. The attitude is what brings the results. If you
say, "Yes, yes, I believe it but I don't know now." That's not the
right attitude. The right attitude is to receive it, and say it's "THUS
SAITH THE LORD." Then it's right.
E-7 What Think Ye of Christ -1213M Then you set it out into the yard, and it
just keeps growing. But you can praise God just as soon as you get the acorn.
Is that right? Because you've got the tree already. Is that right? Now, when
God said, "I'm the Lord that healeth thee." Just start praising. You
got it; you got it right then. You say, "Well, I don't see any results,
but that don't make any difference, you got it anyhow. See? 'Cause the Word
of God is a Seed. Is that right? And we are sowed with the incorruptible
Seed of God. See? It can't perish; it's incorruptible. And I... Here's a
statement that I usually make in the healing services, "The right mental
attitude towards any Divine promise of God will bring it to pass." See? 'Cause
it's a seed. It has to.
E-52 God’s Covenant with Abraham 56-0223 What do you do? You'll put the wheat in
the ground, and commend it to God, and it's God's duty to see that it
raises. That's the way you do the Seed of God. Listen to me, any...
The right mental attitude towards any Divine, or the promise of God will bring
it to pass. I don't care what it is, if you can get the right mental
attitude towards the promise. For His promise... "Every the Word of
God," Jesus said, "the Word is the Seed." And every seed
is a promise in there. And if you can just take them seeds into your heart, no
matter what it's for, God will honor it, and it'll bring forth just exactly
what it promised. Oh, my.
E-15 Hear Ye Him 57-0519A There's something
about the reading of the Word that's eternal. Every Christian should read the Word
every day, for Jesus said, "Man shall not live by bread alone, but by
every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God." And I wish to state
this too: And remember, that every promise in this Bible is good, and it will
hold type, and God's guilty of His promise if you'll take the right mental
attitude towards it, it'll bring it to pass. Every Divine promise in God's
Word, if you can take the right mental attitude towards it, God will bring it
to pass. Think of that. For It's a Seed that a sower sowed. And It's Life.
Inter Veil 56-0121 There is an intellectual faith. And there's a faith that
comes from the heart. The old unbeliever
said years ago, "When the Bible said, 'As a man thinketh in his
heart...'" Said, "That's crazy. There's no mental facilities in the
heart." Said, "You think with your mind. There's no mental facilities
in the heart." But last year they found that's wrong. God was
right. Right down in the heart, in the center of the heart, there's a
little compartment where there's not even a blood cell in it. It's not in
the animal heart, only in the human heart. And they say, it's the occupation,
or the occupant of the soul. The soul lives in the heart. Then after
all, God was right, when He said, "As a man thinketh in his
heart."
E-6 Looking At The Unseen 59-0410 About four years ago up in Chicago, I was reading a great
headline in a paper where that the medical science had found a little
compartment in the heart of a human being that did not even have a cell in it.
It was not found in the animal life; it was only found in the human body, the
human heart. And they said, "It must been the dwelling place of the
soul." So then man does think with his heart. You look with your eyes, but
you understand with your heart.
10 God Is His Own Interpreter 64-0205 What I mean, "attributes"
was His thoughts. And a word is a thought expressed. And then that
was in His thinking. And when He said, "Let there be," and there
was..."Let there be," and there was. And now, remember, you
Christians were His thoughts before there was a world. And you are the
manifestation of His thinking. Before there even was a world, you were in
Christ (amen), in God in the beginning.
72 Paradox 64-0206B If we're sons of God, the attributes of His thoughts before
the foundation of the world, we'll think the same of Him. And remember,
brothers, He is the Word. See?
51 Identification 64-0216 Then, see, God came down. And the Character of God was Christ.
He was the Reflection. He was God made visible: notice, God made visible. In
the beginning was God. He wasn't even God then. No, a God's an object of
worship. Only thing He was, was the eternal, and in Him was attributes. And
those attributes were thoughts. And those thoughts was expressed to words,
and word was made manifest.
46 Who Is This Melchisedec 65-0221E Now, in the beginning God dwelled alone
with His attributes as I spoke of this morning. That's His thoughts. There
was nothing, just God alone. But He had thoughts. Just like a great
architect can set down in his mind, and draw out what he thinks he's going to
build, create. Now, he cannot create; he can take something that's been created
and make it in a different form, 'cause God's the only One can create. But he
gets in his mind what he's going to do, and that's his thoughts; that's his
desires. Now, it's a thought, and then he speaks it, and it's a word
then. And a thought when it's expressed, it's a word. A thought
expressed is a word. But it has to be a thought first. So it's God's
attributes; then it becomes a thought, then a word.
10-3 Invisible Union of the Bride 65 In St. John the 1st chapter said, "In
the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was
God." And the same was made flesh and dwelled among us. Christ was the
living Word. He always was the Word; He's still the Word; He always will be the
Word. He was only the manifestation of the attributes of God, for He was the
Son of God, and any son is the attributes of his father. And just as you were
in the genes of your father, in the body of your father when he was a young
boy... You were in him, yet he could not have fellowship with you, because he
didn't know you. But then through the bedding grounds of a mother, you were
brought forth into the earth and become in the image of your father; then he
could fellowship with you. And so were you sons of God and daughters of God
before there even was a moon, stars, or a molecule; you were sons and daughters
of God. For you are only the physical manifestation of the attributes that
was in God at the beginning. For there's only one form of Eternal Life, and
that was you before... You don't know nothing about it; neither did you know
when you were in your earthly father. But you're manifested in His image;
in the image of God you are made, and you were manifested for the glory and the
fellowship of God. And therefore, as sure as your genes had to be in your
father before your natural birth, your spiritual genes had to be in God,
because you're an expression of the attributes of His thoughts before the
foundation of the world. That's right. No way around it. That's right.
