- (Aramaic) — Mahyana — “The Light Giver”
- Ihidaya –– The Single, Unified One; The “Master of Consciousness”
When you say, Lord — What do you mean? Who are you seeking and what do you want?
“We don’t see things as they are. We see them as WE are.”
1 John 3:2(Passion)
Heart — the deep recesses of self: emotions and feelings, meditations/focus, passions, inhibitions and visions.
Dianoia — knowing through logic, doctrine and dogma
Epinoia — Knowing through intuition and inner revelation
Hebrews 11:6 (Passion) — faith pleases God
Psalm 46:1-4,10 (NKJV)
Trans-rational — God plants a desire deep in our hearts at our creation for us to discover. When we do and agree with it — it eventually becomes a realty in our visibly perceived world.
Jeremiah 29:11-14
Hebrews 11:3
Reflections on Ps 46: Four Aspects of God’s Nature
1. God Is With Us — Immanuel
— Not just in proximity to us — He’s FOR us !
— He participates in the human struggle
— We can call on Him and get help.
John 1:14 — Jesus, the “Living Expression of God”: the Message and the Messenger
2. God Is Personal
— Abba — “Daddy”— an expression of trust, safety and confidence.
— Jesus’ relationship with the Father — Fearless, trusting and empowering
Romans 8:14-16 (Passion) — Abba — not a label for God but a CLAIM of intimate love called “SPIRIT”
Vs 16 — “I am His beloved child!”
Foundation Scriptures — Spoken to your inner being
Because they are personal you can consistently return to them to remind your soul of their truth.
The Word of God is NOT MAGIC — It”s the Truth from which we pray!
“Born Again” — a return to the trans-rational truth deep within.
The Prodigal Son parable — “Speaks of a love that existed before any rejection was possible — a love that will still be there after all rejection is over. -PR
