Pathway of peace Symphony

John 5:30 Of myself (??? ae?r; from ???? ae?mi to breathe unconsciously“air”- as naturally circumambient) I am unable to do anything: as the voice comes to me so I make a decision: and my decision is right because I have no desire to do what is pleasing to myself, but only what is pleasing to him who sent me. 

This is how Jesus learned the WAYS of The Father. There is nothing we can do of ourselves to make spiritually supernatural things happen. But we can be there to know that God is happening, and we can be part of what He is doing. That is living by faith. That way we come to know Him and learn His ways.

Psalm 103:7 He made known His ways to Moses, His acts to the children of Israel.

Israel saw the acts of God but did not know the ways of God. But when Moses placed himself in the presence of God so that he might KNOW God, he found himself ALSO to be in the midst of the Acts of God.

HIS PRESENCE

Exodus 33:14 And He said, “My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.” Then Moses said to Him, “ If Your Presence does not go with us, do not bring us up from here… (No presence no shared action) So the Lord said to Moses, “I will also do this thing that you have spoken; for you have found grace in My sight, and I know you by name.

We place ourselves in the middle of the action of God by presence. We can be part of his ways by knowing him, and part of his action by flowing with him. God gave Moses rest, but rest does not mean taking no action. It is taking action without worry. The birds of the air take action to feed but are not worried – no problem mindset 

Matthew 6:26 Look at the birds! They don't worry about what to eat-- they don't need to sow or reap or store up food-- for your heavenly Father feeds them. And you are far more valuable to him than they are. Will all your worries add a single moment to your life.

Being in alignment with God, conscious of His presence, breathing the right air, in the ‘problem free’ zone results in tangible 'God Incidences' in our lives. We can delay the incidences of Gods good blessings - the ones he has in store for us, by our being non-conscious, or asleep, to the presence of God. We can wander down blind alleys instead of walking in pathways of light, where there are still obstacles, but there is light to shine upon them.

The Pathway of peace means we are learning to respond to life from the place of peace on the inside rather than the place of urgency and anxiety on the outside. 

HIS SYMPHONY

God is the composer of a master symphony that sounds throughout the universe. It is the symphony that accompanied His creation and it still plays on. 

Job 38:4 Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth when the morning stars sang together, And all the sons of God shouted for joy?

 http://physicscentral.com/explore/action/microwave.cfm  …Minor fluctuations in the plasma behaved like acoustic (sound) waves. In this way, the cosmic background radiation that fills space today is an echo of those sound waves that permeated the plasma… They are echoes of that awesome music of creation, they also suggest why stars and galaxies are arrayed as they are across the cosmos.

We are part of the orchestra that plays that creative symphony. That symphony never stops playing, even if we walk offstage or have no interest in being part of God’s creative voice (Symphony = voice/sound together). If we walk off to blow our own trumpet or sing ‘I did it my way’, the Shepherd of our soul comes with us down that blind alley and leads us back to our place in the orchestra. This is because we are all included, and the symphony is in different movements, and as movements flow into and out of each other our turn comes around time and time again. This is a picture of us, being present to the Presence – in the middle of creative action, guided by the composer, the conductor, who is also the music. Our music can be a sweet/strong/healing/sad sound or a noise.

Pathway of peace The air I breathe

Luke 14:33 So therefore, any one of you who is not willing to cut ties from anything (forsake – apotassomar – separate from – Adieu! – place in God’s hands ) that gets in the way of knowing me cannot learn from me.

This is the setting of the boats free from their moorings to discover (and uncover) the river of life.

The Pathway involves times of setting oneself apart to practice moving from the head to the heart, and frequent and constant ‘turning from and turning to’ in the midst of our responses – from problems and anxiety  - to the conscious awareness of the presence of God. This is disciplined learning.

Think of what would exist in your heart if your head held no problems for you - Needs are not problems. Problems are unmet needs with negative emotional attachments.  

Imagine that you have nothing to worry about or solve. You are simply obeying one of the most frequently given and mostly ignored commandments of Jesus and the apostles in the New Testament – ‘Be anxious for nothing’ - spoken 19 times in the New Testament.

Our heads would tell us that is the finishing point to arrive at after you have solved all your problems – no - it is the starting point from where you begin to sit in the secret place with God, where wisdom flows into your heart from his. This is where Jesus dwells in your heart by faith…

Ephesians 3:16.I am asking him to give to you, out of his abundant spiritual affluence, his own strength and spiritual might in your inner-most selves

17. So that by faith you will share life with Jesus deep within your heart. I pray that the roots of his love would go deeply into the soil of your hearts and become firmly established there

18. So that you would fully know and experience with all of God’s children the breadth and length and depth and height of the love that Jesus has for you

19. I want that experience for you to be far more than just knowing that his love is there. I want you to experience the fullness of the love relationship of Jesus and the Father

20. We therefore honor him who has the power to do for you more than you could ever think or imagine, through the power that he has activated in our spirit.

This is where we were created to live – the air we breathe.

This is where we do not have problems because we are one with the source of all answers, where we receive his wisdom and love.

A fish could think he had many problems - they could be sharks or reefs or nasty fish eating undersea plants. The fish doesn’t know that its real problem would be being taken out of the water. He needs that water for his survival. It is the air he breathes but he is unaware of how essential it is. It is his alignment with reality, his ‘righteousness’ – where ‘things’ work out as they should.

God’s presence is our alignment, our righteousness, our peace, in the fullness of his love – the air we breathe.

The Task – The labour to enter into the rest is:

1. Being still and KNOWING that he is God. Psalm 46:10

2. Learning Him by being yoked to Jesus. Matthew 11:28 … finding rest for your souls

3. Casting your cares (problems) upon Him for He cares for you. 1Peter 5:7

Practice this PRESENCE PRAYER 10-12 minutes twice each day, apart from other prayers, intercessions, supplications and giving of thanks, and be blessed.
