460. The Dark Cloud 2 | The Surprising Power of Surrender

Mike Parsons –

God does not want to keep us at a distance. He wants us to be safe and secure in His presence—but that requires transformation.

Of course, Jesus wanted to share many things with His disciples, just as the Father desires to reveal amazing things to us. But we may not yet be ready to experience them. In John 16:12, Jesus said, “I have many more things to say to you, but you cannot bear them now.” That was certainly true for me. God wanted to reveal so much, and eventually He did, but at the time I simply could not bear it.

There is revelation, truth, and encounter available to us—but, like the disciples, we may not be ready. It is not because we are unworthy or not good enough, but because our minds need renewing. There are still things in our souls that need to be dealt with so that we learn to trust God—not based on what we see or understand—but simply because He is God. Our relationship with Him must be based on who He is, not on what He does for us, nor on what we do for Him.

Visiting or Dwelling?

God prepares us to dwell with Him in face-to-face intimacy—not just to visit from time to time. At one stage, I was visiting His presence. I was engaging with the realms of heaven, but I was not able to engage with His person—at least, not until I had been through this process.

My encounters in the dark cloud were preparing me for what was to come, though I was completely unaware of that at the time. I did not know what He was doing, or what He was going to do. I thought I had experienced everything there was to experience—how wrong I was!

Once, during one of those dark cloud encounters, I saw my destiny scroll. There was an event marked on it by a blue flame. The Father called it the eternal flame. I was deeply curious—why was I being shown this? At the time, I had no idea it would relate to what I was about to walk through. I saw my life flash before me, leading up to that moment within the flame. I just knew that nothing would ever be the same again. But I did not know what it meant, or how it would unfold. God was showing me something important, something intriguing—an invitation. And, as I sometimes say, Jehovah Sneaky knew I would not be able to resist.

He did not tell me what He was going to do—He simply invited me to engage the eternal flame for a life-changing experience. A friend of mine later painted a picture of someone in a blue flame. When I saw it, it resonated so strongly—it felt as though she had painted me, right there in the midst of that flame that had changed my life.

True Identity and Redemptive Gifts

As part of that process, the Father wanted to reveal my true identity to me—an identity closely linked to my redemptive gift. That redemptive gift is how the Father has wired me, as a son, to engage with the world around me and to mature into His fullness. It is how I see, perceive, and interact with life.

My true identity is connected to my redemptive gift, but it needed to be freed from the performance-based, soul-driven tendencies that had developed through my life experiences. Trauma, nurture, and upbringing can all shape how that gift functions—often making it impure.

In my case, I was using my redemptive gift to create and validate my identity. My redemptive gift is prophet–teacher. That is not the same as the spiritual gift of prophecy. This kind of “prophet” describes how I perceive and process the world. And I am almost equally prophet and teacher—every redemptive gift survey I have done reflects that. That is how God wired me to function as a son: curious about how things work, with the ability to explain them to others. That is probably why He chose me to be a forerunner in heavenly engagement—to open up that realm for others. Hopefully I can share my experiences in a way that is not too weird, so that people can see what is available to them too.

But I had gained my identity and security from the knowledge I received by doing that. I was using my soul to engage heaven—to see and know what the Father was doing, which in itself is good. But my soul would not allow my spirit to engage heaven on its own. Though we are seated in heavenly places, the consciousness of my soul was limiting my spirit’s ability to dwell and remain there. I was tethered to myself, and to the earth.

The Surrender of Self

So the essence of who I was, redemptively, was being used to create a false identity—and to bring me security and independence from my spirit. What I discovered was that me, myself, and I had to surrender. My soul and spirit had to be separated so that they could be reintegrated into oneness—spirit, soul, and body—joined and one with God. From His perspective, we are already one with Him.

As it says in 1 Corinthians 6:17,19-20: “But the one who joins himself to the Lord is one spirit with Him. Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and that you are not your own? For you have been bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body.”

This is what God desires: union so complete that we are one. But I could not experience that union—because my soul would not allow it. In my own understanding, I was alienated.

The Mirror Bible puts it beautifully:
“In our union with Him, we are one spirit with the Lord. Do you not realise that your body, by design, is the sacred shrine of the Spirit of God echoing within you? You are not the sole owner of your life—you are bought and paid for. All of you is His. Live your life conscious of how irreplaceably priceless you are. You host God in your skin.”

Gifted by Design, Not Performance

God wants to free us from the need for our soul to find identity in works—what the Bible calls the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, the path most of the world is on.

The purity of who we are redemptively must be tested and refined by fire. I believe our redemptive gifts will grow beyond just one or two, eventually reflecting all seven—to become more like Jesus. As the fruit of the Spirit matures in us, we will function more fully as sons—engaging not just in one way, but in every way.

The redemptive gifts listed in Romans 12:6–8 are prophet, servant, teacher, exhorter, giver, ruler, and mercy. These are not spiritual gifts for ministry. They are who we are. We are God’s gift to the world. The refining process reveals those gifts and frees us from the need to earn our identity through our own works. We can finally be who God intended—no longer performance-driven, trying to earn His favour.

That testing will look different for each of us. When I first studied redemptive gifts—through the teaching of Arthur Burk—I began to see how God uses testing to purify each one. When I taught on the ketubah in church, I warned people: If you go down this road, you will be tested.

I knew ruler-gift and servant-gift friends who had their ability to rule or serve removed—just like that. Then they had to face the question: Who am I without that? Who was I, without being able to see, understand, and teach?God was trying to show me: I am not who I am because of what I do, but because of who He made me to be. Even if I never did any of those things again, I would still be who I am.

A Restoration of Original Design

God took me through the dark cloud because He loves me.
He wanted to restore me to my original condition—so that I would know myself as He made me.
He wanted to bless me fully.
He wanted to reveal my heavenly identity and position as a son.
He wanted to release me into the fullness of sonship authority to engage creation.

But to do that, He had to do something quite drastic -it may be easier for you than it was for me.

Activation: Resting in Unconditional Love

I encourage you to just close your eyes.
Get relaxed.

You may want to lie down.
You can relax your body.

Begin by focusing on your breathing.
Breathe in slowly… and hold it…
Then breathe it out… slowly.

And as you breathe in… and breathe out…
Start to focus your thinking on God the Father, who is love.

As you begin to breathe in,
You are breathing in unconditional love—
The love of the Father for you,
As a son,
As a daughter,
As His child.

Breathe it in.

As you do, that unconditional love begins to flow
Through your whole being—
Touching every cell of your body,
Your mind,
Your emotions,
The whole of your soul, spirit, and body.

Let yourself be still,
And let God love on you.
Let Him show you how much He loves you.

As His love fills you,
Joy and peace come—
They overwhelm you,
They cocoon you.

All of His being begins to flow in you.
An atmosphere forms around you—
A cocoon of love, joy, and peace.

You are just resting in it.
Relaxing in it.

Be still.
Wait.
Rest.
Wait expectantly.

Whatever God wants to do with you—right now—
This is a safe place.

You can get out of the boat—figuratively.
You can choose to abandon yourself,
To sink into that vast ocean of unconditional love,
Where God’s love is so strong, so powerful—
You can trust Him.

He is a good God,
And He wants the best for you.

Just go deeper and deeper into that love
As He restores first love to you.

You can sink deeper…
And deeper…

There may be things around you that you sense or feel.
Be willing to go deeper and deeper…
Into love.

459. The Dark Cloud 1 | Why Would God Hide From Us?

Where do we get our value from? Where do we get our identity from?

What I discovered on this journey of restored first love and identity was that I had been getting my value, worth and identity from what I was doing. And therefore, if I was not doing those things, I struggled with how I felt about myself.

Lessons from Hebrew Marriage

We have been exploring the restoration of first love through the lens of the six aspects of Hebrew marriage found in the Old Testament. God revealed to Israel that He desired a marriage relationship with them. However, they failed to accept that invitation. Instead, they set up their own system of Hebrew marriage, based on what they believed God had done—but something was missing: relationship.

It became a relationship based on contract, not covenant.

We looked at:

  • The Garden (Lakah) – God drawing us into intimacy and revealing His love
  • The Dance Floor (Segullah) – where He entwines with us, revealing our identity and destiny
  • The Mikveh – the soaking room of preparation and transformation, where He prepares us to come into His presence
  • The Ketubah – the covenant of relationship (which, in my case, I initially misunderstood and approached from the soul)
  • The Kiddushin – the betrothal, the dark cloud of surrender
  • The Huppah – the bridal chamber, the consummation of deeper union

False Identity

I was on a journey to have my first love identity revealed, which meant my false soul identity had to be exposed. I did not know who I truly was, and therefore, I was operating in the power of the soul. The soaking room began that process; the dark cloud completed it.

Today, I want to talk about that dark cloud experience—what led to it, how it unfolded, and how it changed everything. The Father’s goal was intimacy and union—symbolised by marriage and consummation in the bridal chamber—which would lead to a face-to-face experience of God’s person, far beyond experiencing His presence.

Into the Dark Cloud

I reached a point on my journey where the soaking and fire of preparation were drawing me towards the bridal chamber—to that consummation, to deeper intimacy, truth and knowledge than I had ever imagined. But first came the dark cloud of separation and reintegration of soul and spirit, which brought about total surrender of the soul. That was, without doubt, one of the hardest things I have ever gone through in my life—but also the most beneficial.

Exposing the Thoughts and Intentions

This transformation revealed the need for that separation and reintegration. It exposed the thoughts and intentions of my heart, which were so soulish that I was shocked by my own reactions when God tested me. But He did it for my good, knowing that it was the only way to bring me into my true identity and reveal His true nature to me.

It was incredibly hard. The motives of my heart were mixed. Some of my intentions were shaped by the programming of wrong religious belief systems. Those flawed intentions were exposed when I attempted to make a ketubah—a marriage contract—with God, instead of entering into the new covenant that had already been prepared for me to be included in. The whole process had been flawed from the beginning, and it brought to light the root of my soulish motivations.

The Father used those stages to help me see the false perspective of the soul, in contrast with my true identity—created in His image and likeness, as a son. The flaws in my thoughts and intentions became apparent when I tried to make demands of God—rather than surrendering to relationship and trusting Him.

Contract vs Covenant

That is the problem with a contract—it does not rest on trust. A contract says, “If you do this, I will do that.” These are your demands; these are mine. And if one party fails to meet those conditions, that is seen as marital unfaithfulness and could bring the relationship to an end—because it was never based on trust.

That is what I discovered. I might have claimed I trusted God, and believed I did, but the truth was my relationship with Him was not built on trust. It was built on reward: being rewarded for what I was doing and drawing my identity from my works for God.

Now, none of the things I was doing were wrong in themselves—but I was doing them from the wrong motivation. I was driven by a need for self-validation. I found that I could trust God only when I understood what He was doing. If I did not understand, I could not trust. I did not realise that until He revealed it to me—and when He did, it absolutely shocked me.

Some of my intentions were definitely performance-driven, not pure.

The Nature of the Dark Cloud

My dark cloud experience will be different from yours. You might not go through the same darkness and inability to see that I did. Others have shared different stories of how God brought them to deeper relationship. But I do believe we all must experience a separation and reintegration of soul and spirit.

We are all born into this world with our souls shaped from the outside in. Everything we learned about ourselves, the world and even God came through our physical senses. Our soul interpreted that data and built a worldview, a belief system, based on upbringing, experience and, often, religious or educational systems.

God wanted to bring me—and wants to bring each of us—into the bridal chamber for consummation, into a face-to-face encounter with the Father’s person. For that to happen, He must reorient our inner being so that our relationship is led by the spirit and not the soul. It must move from spirit to soul, not the other way round—so that we can be joined to the Lord and become one spirit with Him.

The Season of Preparation

After a period of soaking and fire around August 2011, in which I had some profound soaking room experiences, then between August and October 2011, in times of corporate worship, I began to experience what felt like a thick, dark cloud. I did not understand what it was. I was not afraid—but I was confused and disoriented. What was going on? Why was I having these experiences? What was happening? I asked a lot of questions.

Why Would God Hide?

So I began to look into it—what are dark clouds all about? I started exploring the significance of dark clouds in Scripture, and what I found was that God hides within a dark cloud to protect us from the intensity of His presence before we are fully prepared and ready to meet Him face to face.

This is not God keeping us away—this is God protecting us, but also preparing us. He draws us into His presence by leading us through a dark cloud of trust. The question becomes: will I trust Him enough to go through that dark cloud to enter into His presence—or will I back off, be afraid, and run from the experience?

Israel’s Encounter

In Deuteronomy 4:11, we read about Israel’s experience:

“You came forward and stood at the foot of the mountain. The mountain was burning with fire to the heart of the heavens—darkness, cloud and thick gloom.”

Of course they were afraid. They had spent 400 years in Egypt, in bondage, with little to no real relationship with God. And when they came out of that, they carried so much of Egypt with them—control, manipulation and fear. So, when God invited them up the mountain to meet Him, they were afraid. They drew back, and they failed to accept that invitation.

The Glory in the Cloud

In 2 Samuel 22:12, it says:

He made darkness canopies around Him, massive waters, thick clouds of the sky.

And in 1 Kings 8:10,

When the priests came out of the holy place, the cloud filled the house of the Lord, so that the priests could not stand to minister because of the cloud, for the glory of the Lord filled the house.

Now, when we think of the glory of the Lord, we usually think of light—but actually, God had to protect them from the fullness of His glory, from the intensity of His essence, from the blinding light of His presence. Solomon understood this. In verse 12, he said,

“The Lord has said that He would dwell in the thick darkness.”

So Solomon recognised that this thick cloud was not hiding God out of reluctance, but protecting the people. Even in that cloud, they could not stand—the weight of God’s presence was too great. But within that dark cloud, when God came to occupy the Holy of Holies, He was actually shielding them from the light of His presence—until Jesus came to reveal the light as the Light of the World, to reveal the true nature of God.

Hidden in Mystery

Psalm 18:11 says, He made darkness His hiding place, His canopy around Him, darkness of waters, thick clouds.

The Passion Translation renders it this way:

Wrapped in thick cloud-darkness, His thunder-tabernacle surrounded Him. He hid Himself in mystery-darkness. The dense rain clouds were His garments.

This is an invitation. God is calling us into that mystery—to see whether we will trust Him. Are we willing to go through the dark cloud in order to encounter His person?

Psalm 97:2: Clouds and thick darkness surround Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne.

So why does God hide in a dark cloud? Because without it, He is unapproachable light. But He desires to prepare us so that we can approach Him in that light.

From Cloud to Light

Eventually, when I went into that light—having been prepared and having passed through the dark cloud—I could not remain there for even a fraction of a second. It was far too intense for me at that time, because the process of deconstruction and the renewal of my mind was still ongoing.

But I returned—and now I dwell in that approachable light. I dwell in the realm of light, in perfection. I abide there. It is my home, constantly, continually. And that was only possible because I went through the dark cloud. My soul and spirit were separated, then reintegrated. I was reconnected. And now, I can dwell in the realms of heaven continually.

Hidden Until We Are Ready

Interestingly, the Hebrew word for thick and dark is the same. It means that God is unseen or hidden from our direct sight—until we are ready, until we are prepared to meet Him face to face. And that is our destiny. That is the purpose of restoring first love. God does not want to keep us at a distance—but He wants us to be safe and secure in His presence. And that requires transformation.

Activation: Guided Meditation

I encourage you to just close your eyes.
Get relaxed.

You may want to lie down.
Just begin to relax your body.

You may want to start focusing on your breathing.
Breathe in slowly… and hold it…
Then breathe it out slowly.

And as you are breathing in and breathing out,
Begin to focus your thinking on God,
The Father, who is love.

As you begin to breathe in,
You are breathing in unconditional love—
The love of the Father for you
As a son, as a daughter, as a child.

Breathe it in…
And as you breathe it in,
That unconditional love begins to flow through your whole being—
Touching every cell of your body:
Your mind,
Your emotions,
The whole of your soul, spirit and body.

So you can be still…
And let God love on you.
Let Him show you how much He loves you.

As His love fills you,
Let joy and peace come and overwhelm you—
Cocoon you.
Let all of His being begin to flow in you.
An atmosphere forms around you—
A cocoon of love, joy and peace
That you are just resting in,
Relaxing in.

Be still.
Wait.
Just rest.
Just wait—expectantly—
For whatever God wants to do with you right now.

This is a safe place.
You can get out of that boat—figuratively.
You can choose to abandon yourself:
Sink into that vast ocean of unconditional love,
Where God’s love is so strong, so powerful,
That you can trust Him—
That He is a good God—
That He wants the best for you.

Just go deeper and deeper into that love,
As He restores that first love to you.

You can sink deeper…
And deeper…
There may be things around you that you sense or feel.
Be willing to go deeper and deeper into love.

458. Spiritual Frequency | How God Hears Your Prayers

Mike Parsons

Video not showing above? Please click here.

1. How Does God Receive Our Prayers?

How does God receive my prayers—or even my thoughts? Is it simply that He just does, or is there something more going on? Could it be that He is receiving the electrical impulse I send out—the frequency of my intention when I am communicating with Him?

His being is capable of decoding that frequency, just as my brain decodes the electrical impulses that make up sight, hearing, taste, touch and smell. Even imagination, visions and spiritual impressions are forms of communication that my brain has learned to interpret. So, in the same way, God interprets the intention behind what I am expressing.

2. The Frequency of Communication

Language needs to be understood. That means I have to learn the language. For instance, if I wanted to learn Chinese—which is unlikely, and I would probably struggle—I would need to learn a whole new set of symbols and sounds. Only then would I be able to hear it and understand what is being said.

I could hear someone speaking Chinese right now, but I would not know what they meant. The sound reaches me, but without understanding, it is meaningless. The same principle applies to how we hear from God. Whether He communicates through thoughts, impressions, feelings or images, I have had to learn to decode that communication.

3. Rediscovering Our Spiritual Bandwidth

And we can all learn to do this. Our senses were originally designed to engage with God—they just became disconnected from that spiritual bandwidth over time.

Adam, in the beginning, could interpret that frequency. He could see and feel spiritually because his spirit was what interpreted the world around him. When he chose independence, his soul began to filter perception instead—and he lost touch with that frequency.

As a result, over time and through various changes, we lost access to many ranges of spiritual and electromagnetic perception—those wavelengths we were originally created to engage with. But God is restoring that ability.

4. Tuning Back In

Now, we are beginning to perceive things differently. We are learning to tune in again. Our senses are being reawakened so we can re-engage the spiritual realm and perceive through a deeper, restored connection.

But this requires practice. We must learn to train our senses, to tune in to the frequencies of heaven, and to interpret what God is communicating—whether through intention, impression, vision or sound.

457. Transformative Brooding | Tuning in to Heavenly Frequencies

Mike Parsons

Unable to see the video above? Please click here.

1. Brooding with God: A Metaphor of Alignment

A brooding thing is like a bird sitting on a clutch of eggs—keeping them warm, nurturing them until they are ready to hatch. In the same way, brooding is a process of aligning with the Father’s heart, thoughts and desires. As He reveals them, they begin to change me. I am being entrained—brought into resonance—with the frequency of His thoughts, so that I become harmonised with Him.

When that resonance is complete—when what He has revealed is fully formed in me—then it is ready to move to the next stage. That process could take a minute, an hour, or longer. It depends on what God is revealing: is He sharing every detail, or is He giving the shape of something so that I can begin to creatively express it?

2. Becoming His Voice, Resonating with His Frequency

So, am I becoming a frequency? Yes—I am His voice. That means I resonate with creative energy. I may not hum, but others do, and that can be a way of expressing it. Some people meditate with sound, with chants, bowls or frequencies to help them focus—and there is nothing wrong with that. It is simply what works for each person.

For me, it is internal. I find my thoughts aligning and entraining to His. That may sound simple, and I have not really considered all the mechanics of it, but I do understand what frequency is. God’s voice is frequency. It vibrates with creative energy and has the power to bring about what He says.

3. Intention and the Creative Process

There is no exact right or wrong method—otherwise it becomes a formula, and people try to copy the method rather than embrace the process. The key is to allow the process to work through you.

If you hum and light responds—wonderful. For me, I focus my intention in thought. That thought carries creative energy, and then light responds. The wave function collapses, if you want to use quantum language. I understand the science, but for me, it is not about the mechanics. It is about engagement.

Now I know others do things differently. For example, when I have engaged with Nancy, she sometimes hums or makes unusual sounds. And when we did an activation around the energy gates during the Restoration of All Things conference, she used different vocal sounds and physical actions to help people tune in.

4. Diverse Expressions of Energy Engagement

There were seven different sounds and corresponding gestures—one for each energy gate. It was a bit like a line dance, with everyone moving and sounding together. For me, it looked a bit amusing, but I understood that she was simply breaking the process down to help people engage.

I had seen something similar in a TV series—I think it was The OA. In it, a group of people each produced a different sound and movement. When they combined them, it generated energy that opened a portal. I resonated with that because I had seen something very similar prophetically in real life.

Now, when I activate the energy gates, I do not need to sing or move—I just focus and intentionally activate them. That works for me. But again, the point is not to copy someone else’s way, but to discover what works for you.

Some people may need sound, or physical movement, or other symbolic actions to help them engage. And that is perfectly fine. It is all about intention—how we focus, engage and release energy. Each sound or movement can carry intention, and when combined with faith and resonance, they can open realms of experience and revelation.

456. The Truth About New Age Practices

Mike Parsons

If you do not see the video above, please click here.

1. Misunderstandings Around Healing and Science

Now, Christians who would call this kind of thing new age often do not realise they are contradicting themselves. They will say the Bible supports healing—but as soon as you begin to explore how it might actually happen, they object. They treat it as if it is magic. And that is the issue: Christians who are not really tuned in tend to think, “Well, God just heals. It just happens.”

They are quite happy with the idea that it happens as if by magic, but as soon as you begin to explain the science—or the spiritual mechanics—they say, “Oh no, that is not faith. You should not be trying to work out how it happens.” But God did show us how it happens.

2. The Conflict with Traditional Beliefs

God literally showed me how to generate anointing. We had been dependent on the Holy Spirit giving us a gift of healing—then we would lay hands on people, and sometimes they would feel heat in our hands, tingling energy, or even be overwhelmed and fall to the floor. There was always something tangible taking place.

Then God said to me, “I want you to focus on what I said you could do—lay hands on the sick and see them recover.” So I began to focus my intention, agreeing with what God said, and releasing that intention through my hands.

3. Understanding Spiritual Healing

What I was doing was channelling the energy flowing from the Spirit within me—rivers of living water, as Jesus described—out of my innermost being and into others. Now, the moment you use the word channelling, people react. “You cannot use that word!” they say. But it simply means something is flowing from within me to someone else.

That is all that happens when anyone lays hands on another person. Energy is flowing. But people do not like the terminology, so they reject the whole idea. That is a huge barrier. But God showed me that my intention, focused in agreement with His word, could direct that energy through my hand and into someone’s body.

4. Personal Insights on Anointing

Back in the 1940s and 50s, healing revivalist William Branham would place his hand on someone and feel vibrational energy. He could then name the disease they had without being told. He said an angel had taught him how to do it. There is even a famous photo of him with a visible halo of light over his head, taken long before the days of Photoshop—people could not explain it.

He had learned how to tune into something God was using to administer healing. I am not saying everyone has to do this the same way—but we can learn to tune into frequencies.

5. The Role of Intention in Healing

For example, you can use crystal bowls to create a sound bath. You place the bowls around a person and play them. The sound surrounds them—immerses them in a frequency. You can release intention into that frequency. You can also place the bowls on the body—on the chest or in the hand—and when played, you can feel the energy resonate through you.

There was one large bowl, probably two and a half feet across, that you could stand in. When played, your whole body vibrated. It was powerful. I had a sound bath in Phoenix, Arizona. The man used crystal bowls and Tibetan singing bowls—he placed them on my back and legs.

6. Challenging the Terminology

The moment he started playing them, I went straight into a deep encounter with God. It was instant. I became aware of all sorts of things happening—at a deep spiritual level. God spoke to me in that space. Afterwards, I asked the man what he had seen and felt. What he shared was exactly what I had experienced too.

It was a very positive encounter. The man is a Christian and uses this practice to help people—often to set them free or bring healing, especially those who feel oppressed or depressed. It surrounds them with peace—cocoons them in sound and intention. That atmosphere of peace can bring real relief and restoration.

There is much God is revealing about frequency and intention. It is not about new age—it is about rediscovering how creation itself was designed to work.

Two Scrolls: Destiny and Life

From my perspective, it is like there are two scrolls. One is the scroll written of me by the Father—it is the scroll of my destiny, of my identity. The other is the scroll that is the record of my life—how I have actually lived.

Some of my life has been aligned with that identity and destiny, and some of it has not. When I engaged the judgment seat of Christ and the fire of God’s presence, I took the scroll of my life. Literally, of course, it is me stepping into that place—but the scroll is a way of relating to the process.

The Bible describes scrolls being written front and back, and that was my experience too. I brought that scroll before the Father. All I saw was a consuming fire—His eyes—and the scroll was opened.

Understanding Our Destiny

On the front side of the scroll, I saw wood, hay and straw—and also gold, silver and precious stones. These represented the things I had done as a believer. This was not about my life before I knew Christ—because everything from that time, every action rooted in lost identity, has already been forgiven and dealt with at the cross.

What I was seeing was my life in Christ—how I had lived in relationship with God. Some things had mixed motives. I was doing certain things to affirm my identity, to validate myself through activity. They were not necessarily wrong, but the motive was not pure.

And He consumed all of those things—everything described as wood, hay and straw. But the gold, silver and precious stones remained. My scroll—my life—was refined. Everything contradictory was removed. There was no guilt, no shame, no condemnation—just love.

Reflecting on Life Choices

On the reverse side of the scroll, I saw more gold, silver and precious stones—and more wood, hay and straw. This represented the things I had done in alignment with the Father’s heart, and also the things I had missed—things I could have done, but did not.

Some of those omissions came because I was not paying attention, or I was too busy, or simply unaware of what the Father was doing. As I began to feel sorrow and regret for missing those things, He just lovingly consumed it all—no condemnation, no guilt—just love.

That love removed all potential for the enemy to accuse me, or for me to condemn myself. He purified my scroll—my life—completely, so that nothing could hold me back.

The Judgment Seat of Christ

The judgment seat of Christ is not about punishment. It is about purification. It is about bringing our lives into alignment with who the Father says we are—not who we have been shaped to be by the world, our culture, our upbringing or religious systems.

Religion warps our identity. But God wants to reveal our true identity as sons. He wants us to operate from the truth of who we are in Him—not the false version formed by lost identity.

He has continued to speak to me—to reveal the vast sum of His thoughts about me, so I can come into deeper understanding of who I really am. I do not know everything yet—He is still revealing. But that is relationship. Sonship is discovered through relationship.

God’s Love and Forgiveness

In that relationship, He continues to purify and refine my life—removing anything that might hinder me from progressively knowing who I truly am and living from that reality. I know there were many times I acted from mixed motives—trying to earn or prove my identity.

But He has removed that mixture. The pure in heart will see God, and I did not want anything impure clouding that. In His kindness and generosity, He purified not only the record of my life, but also my memory of it.

There are things I can no longer recall—literally gone—wiped clean by His love and grace. And that is just His mercy and His wonderful, overwhelming love.

Rethinking How We Use the Bible

Much of the confusion around this topic comes from how we use the Bible—treating everything in it as if it is God speaking directly to us today. The truth is, it is not. If we did not use the Bible that way, and if we did not see it as the primary way God speaks to people today—as “God’s Word”—we might approach it very differently.

The Bible is not God’s Word. It contains some words that God said, but it is not the Word of God. Jesus is the Word of God. He is the logos—the Word made flesh. He was with God in the beginning. When we understand that Jesus is the Word of God, then when we read “the word” in the Bible, we do not need to assume it is referring to the Bible. It usually is not—especially since the Bible did not exist until about 385 AD.

The Canonisation of Scripture

In 325 AD, at the Council of Nicaea, church leaders selected various writings—those they believed God had spoken through—and labelled them as scripture. Then in 385, they canonised a particular group of those writings and called it the Bible. The implication was: God cannot speak outside of this now. But of course, He still does. He is speaking to us all day, every day.

I spoke to someone recently who insisted that God inspired the selection of the Bible. So I asked him: why, then, did the Protestant version remove thirteen books that were in the original Bible—the ones the Catholic Bible still includes as the Apocrypha? If God inspired the creation of the canon, who had the authority to later remove books from it?

It does not add up. God never required a book. He wanted to speak to us directly—Spirit to spirit. Yes, some of those ancient writings are useful, even valuable. But without them, would we really be worse off? Arguably not. We might not be as divided into denominations, all centred on different interpretations of canonised verses.

Jesus: The Living Word

I believe every generation should have inspired writings that help them understand what God is doing in their generation. But those writings should not be canonised. They should not be seen as a final word that limits how God speaks.

Someone once quoted Revelation to me: “You must not add anything to this book.” But that is referring to that particular book, not the entire Bible—because the Bible did not even exist yet. People assume it means you cannot add anything to the Bible, but that was never the intention.

Similarly, 2 Timothy 3:16 says, “Every inspired writing is useful for doctrine…”—but it does not specify what counts as inspired writing. It could not have meant the Bible as we know it, because that came centuries later. The Greek word used is graphe—it means writings. That verse is often mistranslated or misread to mean “all Scripture”, with a capital S, implying the Bible. But it actually means “every inspired writing”, which is a broader and more flexible idea.

The Bible Contains Words—But Not All Are God’s

God has inspired writings throughout history. I believe there are writings today that help us understand how He is working now. But we should not base our lives on texts written 2,000 years ago as if they are the only things God ever said.

The Bible is a collection of books written by people. It contains words from God, but also words from others—Pontius Pilate, for instance. It contains poetry, history, letters and songs. Some of it is clearly inspired by the writer’s relationship with God. But it is not dictated by God. The Psalms, for example, were David’s personal expression of what he was going through. They were put to music, just like other writers did with their experiences. That does not make them irrelevant—but neither does it mean we must follow them as rules for today.

Should we follow David’s emotional outbursts, or should we listen to what God is saying to us now? I believe we should be listening to the Spirit today. That is the real issue here.

Led by the Spirit, Not the Book

This view can upset evangelical Christians, especially those who hold to sola scriptura—scripture alone—the idea that the Bible is the only authority. But where does that leave the Holy Spirit? If we have to read the Bible every day to know what to do, where is the Spirit’s role in leading us? The Bible itself says, “Those who are led by the Spirit are the children of God.” It does not say, “Those who are led by the Bible are the children of God.”

453. Faith Over Facts | How to Trust God in Difficult Situations

Mike Parsons

If you do not see the Faith over Facts video above, please click here.

1. Keep Trusting, Not Striving

When things do not change or improve, continue to put your trust in God. Keep seeking Him for guidance about what to do—do not try to fix it yourself. If you have gone to the courts of heaven and received a verdict, then applying that verdict is key. The key is to live according to the verdict, rather than the facts you are trying to change.

A big part of the problem is that, when we want change, we tend to focus on the situation. That just increases our focus on the problem, which makes us feel worse about it. Instead, we need to shift our attention to the solution—and the solution is always God. Keep your eyes fixed on Him. He is the author and finisher of our faith. Look to the hills—where does your help come from? That is the right place, so keep looking there. Do not allow the situation you are facing to change where you are looking.

2. Living in the Good of the Verdict

Jesus called Peter to step out of the boat. While Peter kept his eyes on Jesus, he walked on the water. But when he looked at the wind and waves, he began to sink. The key is to stay focused on the right position—in Him.

When you have done a court case and received a verdict, live in the good of that verdict. As Jesus said in Mark 11: “Pray, believe that you have received, and you will receive.” That means living in the reality that you went to the right place, received the right verdict, and now you are choosing to live in it—even while the verdict is still being outworked.

That verdict brings you to a place of contentment and trust in God’s provision. Do not let symptoms or circumstances affect how you feel. Instead, focus on the verdict. Apply it. Live according to it—even if the situation has not changed. That enables you to live in joy and peace in the midst of the storm, rather than just waiting for the storm to disappear. And eventually, the storm will pass, if you stay focused on the One who calms storms—Jesus. Focus on the verdict, not on the problem.

3. The Source of Healing and Wholeness

This principle applies especially to healing. Healing is a classic case where we often focus on symptoms. If you are constantly trying to fix the symptom, then you are constantly looking at the symptom, which can leave you feeling worse. Instead, look to the Healer. Look to the provision of God in Jesus—for your health and wholeness. Go to the healer, and the healing will come.

Back in the 1990s, I experienced this personally. I believed in healing, but although I had been healed many times, I was not healed of one condition—Meniere’s disease, which gave me repeated vertigo attacks. It was quite debilitating, and I needed medication, which came with unpleasant side effects. I tried everything: I had people pray for me, I prayed for myself, I did everything I knew to do. I still was not healed—at least not in terms of symptoms. But I had been healed; I just had not received the removal of the symptoms.

I used to think, “Well, healing is in God’s kingdom—maybe if God wills, His healing will be outworked in this situation.” But I came to see that healing is my inheritance. I went back to every Bible verse I could find on healing, wholeness and health, and I came to this conclusion: Jesus died not only to restore my lost identity, but also to remove the outworking of that lost identity—including sickness. God is my healer, and health is the inheritance He intends me to live in.

4. Receiving and Responding to Life

I put my trust in that truth and rejoiced in it—even while still on medication—until God told me to stop. When He did, I threw the tablets away, never had another attack, and have lived in health ever since. My trust is in Him who brings me health and wholeness—He is the source of life, and that life is in me.

Jesus said, “Whoever drinks of this water will never thirst again. That water will become in you a fountain of living water, eternal life.” So we drink from the source within, not from something external. We focus on that source of life already in us, bringing change to our entire being.

When it comes to changing our DNA, there may be things inherited from our parents or altered genetically. But again, the life is in me. One way I symbolically focus on partaking of that life is through communion. In the Engaging God programme and other places, I have spoken about declarations I made while taking communion—declarations about the transformation of my DNA and the removal of anything within the fabric of my being that was not aligned with God’s perfect desire for me: to live in health and ultimately to walk in immortality.

So I took communion daily, receiving life, drawing on the life already in me. The symbols—eating His flesh and drinking His blood—point to receiving His life, so that I will not have to die. Sickness is part of death, so as I participate in life, sickness ends, and I live in health and wholeness.

Over time, I began to live in a state of communion, where every breath I take is life. That was a process I have shared elsewhere. But I encourage you: rest and relax in His goodness, His grace, His mercy, and His unconditional love for you.

Do not strive—just trust. Come to a place of rest where you trust in His goodness. Do only what He shows you to do. If He does not show you anything, then just keep trusting in His provision to change the situation. Apply the verdict every day. Live in the good of the verdict—that you are free from whatever situation it is.

God just wanted relationship. He did not make a contract but invited them into a covenant relationship. He did not want a business arrangement—He desired a relationship of love.

In the context of Hebrew marriage, the bride and her father, and the groom and his father, would come together to make an agreement. This agreement defined the boundaries of the marriage. The bride could include anything she wished in the ketubah, as long as the groom agreed, and vice versa. Once both agreed, the contract became binding. These were the terms of their union, and to break them was considered ‘marital unfaithfulness’.

Marital unfaithfulness was not limited to adultery. It meant breaking the agreed terms of the contract, which is why people could issue divorces for such breaches. This was a contractual arrangement—not a relationship. Once the agreement was made, the couple would stand and face each other. The groom would say to the bride, “I go to prepare a place for you, that where I am, you may be also.” He was referring to preparing a new room at his father’s house, a place for them to live, joined to the family home. This is the context we see reflected in John 14.

The bride would then ask, “When will you come back to receive me unto yourself?” The groom’s response would be, “I do not know the day or the hour, but when my father approves the wedding chamber, he will send me back to receive you unto myself.” These words should sound familiar—Jesus used them (in John 14).

These words place Jesus’ death on the cross within the context of marriage and covenant. “In my Father’s house are many dwelling places…”—this is all part of the same imagery. The new covenant is a preparation for us to become a place of intimacy, a marriage dwelling, so that God can live in us. On the day of resurrection, they would know that Jesus was in the Father, they were in Him, and He in them—this wonderful union that was to take place.

So what Jesus taught, as recorded by John, would have been clearly understood in terms of covenant. They would have recognised that God still wants to marry us. That is such an amazing truth.

The ‘Ten Commandments’ as Covenant Invitation

Now think about the ‘Ten Commandments’ as a marriage invitation. The ketubah was God’s promises to His people—not His expectations of them. Have we made vows or promises to God as if entering a contract? Do we have expectations of God based on that contract? I did—wrongly. I made my ketubah with wrong intentions and motivations.

If you have made vows to God based on performance, I encourage you: retract those vows. Do not let those past vows become a hindrance or restriction to your future. God is not looking for vows. He is looking for relationship.

We need to see the Ten Commandments from the right perspective, and understand ketubah and our relationship with God. Many people still live under a mistaken Old Covenant view of God. The commandments were never meant to be a restrictive set of rules—they were the foundations of a relationship intended to bring freedom.

From Slavery to Sonship

Remember, these people had been slaves for 430 years—a heritage of slavery where their opinions did not matter. Every day for 430 years they rose to make bricks, beaten at their masters’ whim, treated as inhuman. Seven days a week, twelve hours a day, every single day of the year. They had no human rights. They were property.

The Ten Commandments were God’s way of helping a nation of slaves rediscover their true identity. He was not trying to control them. He was forming a culture based on His way of living—a culture so attractive that the world would look at it and desire it for themselves.

It was also a wedding proposal. God was proposing marriage to a people who still thought like slaves. In this new culture, God respected their dignity—unlike Pharaoh or their former masters, who could abuse or kill them at a whim. God honours His image in us. But it is very difficult to live as a son while still thinking like a slave or an orphan. God wants to heal us from these ways of thinking, from these internal emotional bondages.

The Ten Commandments were truth given to free them, not laws designed to control them. That is still true today. God does not want us to live in fear, under a legalistic system. After centuries of oppression, this was a radical shift.

“You shall not steal.” No one thought of that as a restrictive rule. In the new culture, it meant you cannot take things from me just because you can. That alone would have been an incredible revelation. But there is an even deeper meaning to these stipulations within the ketubah. It carried the implication: You do not need to steal—this relationship contains all your needs and provision.

That beautiful verse in 2 Corinthians 9:8 says, “God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work.” That is God’s provision within the relationship. He wants us to be blessed—empowered to prosper and succeed in every area of life.

This remains true under the new covenant. Matthew 6:33: “Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.” If we simply pursue God in relationship, everything we need will be added. There is no need to strive in our own strength.

All they knew was four hundred years of slavery. When they heard “You shall take a day off,” imagine how that must have sounded. They had not had a day off in 430 years. Yet God was saying, Take a day off every week! He was teaching them that their identity and value did not come from how many bricks they could make or how productive they were. Their worth was rooted in the relationship. But sadly, they did not value themselves as He did.

“You shall not lie.” In the new culture, integrity in business and relationships mattered. Corruption was not good trade, because no one wants to deal with someone they cannot trust.

God was not trying to make them good by restricting them.
He was trying to make them free.

He was showing them that there was a different way to live—freedom, not bondage. He was not presenting conditions for His love. You do not propose to someone you do not already love. This was God’s marriage proposal, His invitation to a love relationship with Him.

A Relationship Built on Love, Not Law

God is not and was not trying to make us good. Compared to whom—Him? He was and is trying to make us free. His whole goal was to deliver people from slavery, from whatever held them captive, and to bring them into freedom. He was not offering a list of requirements for acceptance, not a series of how-to steps to qualify for heaven one day. This was about enjoying relationship with Him now—in all its wonder, freedom and joy.

God never intended to establish a relationship through fear and guilt. He is not saying, You must marry me whether you love me or not. We love because He first loved us.

The law says, “Love the Lord your God with all your heart, mind and strength, and your neighbour as yourself.” Jesus says, “Love one another as I have loved you.” Just allow Him to love you. That love will empower you to love others.

God has always wanted to form relationship out of freedom, not restriction. His laws, rules and principles were not conditions for relationship; they were confirmations of His desire for us to live our best life within that relationship. Relationship establishes relationship. You do not establish a relationship through rules. If you do, it is not a true relationship. True relationship is always built on love. God’s grace promises keep us safe and secure within that covenant of love.

This was a radically new concept for them—and perhaps even for us. It certainly was for me.

The First Word: Intimacy and Increase

“I am the Lord your God. You shall have no other gods before me.” In Hebrew, this begins with the words Anokhi Yahweh Elohim.

God wanted to create a culture in which everyone possessed basic dignity, as children made in the image of God. A culture so good that the whole world would desire what they had. He was establishing a community of people who would become a light to the Gentiles and would one day bring forth the Messiah through a new covenant.

Of course, they got it wrong—completely. They did not enter into a relationship of grace and love. Instead, they entered a system based on rules and law, in which they believed they had to earn relationship with God by making sacrifices and offerings.

God wanted a culture and values in place so salvation would come to the whole world; to establish a kind of life in a community of people so the world could see what God’s love is really like. I do not believe the church today has truly presented to the world who God really is and what his love is like.

So the first word of the ‘Ten Commandments’ is anochi. Four Hebrew letters: alef, nun, chet and yod. Hebrew was originally a pictorial language. Each word is like a comic strip of images. Alef is the image of an ox-head in a yoke—representing strength and authority. Nun is a fish—symbolising multiplication and fruitfulness. Chet is a fence or hedge—indicating boundaries, protection, or separation. Yod is an upraised hand—the first letter of Judah, meaning praise or submission.

So the very first word of God’s covenant invitation, anokhi, communicates this: Your authority will increase inside the hedge of praise and submission.

“I am the Lord your God. You shall have no other gods before me.” Why would they want other gods, when He was offering them a relationship where their authority would grow within the protective hedge of praise and trust? That single phrase sums up the invitation of the ketubah—an invitation into covenant relationship. I am the Lord your God, choosing to bless you with freedom from slavery—not because of anything you have done, but because I love you. And I want the whole world to know that I am a loving God.

Reclaiming the Heart of the ‘Commandments’

This is the power contained in the very first word of what we now call the Ten Commandments. Religion has turned it into “Thou shalt not…” But what if we reimagined that? What if our lives became a response to anokhi?

If we truly knew that we have authority within the wonderful hedge of God’s love and protection, we would live differently. We would be a people who turn the world upside down by being authentic, generous, compassionate and kind—committed to helping the poor, the sick, the disadvantaged. And that was the early Church. That was their testimony. It changed the world. It spread across the known world within a generation. Amazing.

What would that look like today?

Activation: Let the Father Lead You

Some of you may desire to experience the Father and let the Father lead you. If so, begin to fix your eyes and thoughts upon the Father,
seeing him face to face.

Let those thoughts form in your imagination.
There is a door in your spirit.
Choose to open that door.
Invite the Father in—
to hug you,
to breathe his very breath into you.

Breathe in… and breathe out.

Breathe in deeply the unconditional love of the Father.

As you breathe it in,
just as oxygen is absorbed by the lungs into the bloodstream,
let the unconditional love of God begin to fill every part of your whole being, flowing through you.

You can just be still,
as God loves you and loves on you.

 

 

451. Conquering Fear | Your Mind as a Battleground

Mike Parsons

If you do not see the video above, please click here.

Identifying the Root Causes

Come to a place where God is able to show you what the issues really are. When you describe your brain as a battleground in relation to something like disease or cancer—if you are picturing it—then ask: Where did that come from? Ask the Father to show you. Was this something that runs in your family? Was it linked to a traumatic event? Something that happened in your life?

Most of the time, we are not afraid of things that are not somehow connected to us. So it is important to find the root. Then remember: perfect love casts out fear.

The Power of Perfect Love

Apply the perfect love of God to any fear you may be carrying. In your imagination, if this is something you can picture, or see, or feel—something that causes fear or pain to rise—then allow God to go to the root of that experience.

As I have said previously, you can apply the blood of Jesus. You can apply the love of God. Ask Jesus to remove that image from your imagination—to remove the memory of it from your mind—so that no neural pathway is triggered to lead you back down into that lie. Because disease is not God’s desire for you. God only has blessing for you. He is a good God. He wants the best for you.

Replacing Lies with Truth

So the way forward is not to try and stop picturing it or stop thinking about it. Instead, begin to think on the truth: God is my healer. He wants me to be whole. His desire for me is health and wholeness. Focus your meditation on that truth. If those fearful or negative thoughts return, dismiss those thoughts, take them captive and bring them back to the truth. You might say, This thought of cancer has come again, but it is not mine. God’s desire for me is to live in health—cancer-free, free from disease and sickness.

Each time the memory returns, apply the truth again. In fact, you can take it further: Thank you for this negative thought, because now I can apply the truth and turn this for good. Every time a negative thought comes, I will counter it with a positive one and turn it for good.

Eventually, you will find that external negative thoughts—those not coming from within you—will stop. And if there is anything internal, anything programmed in your subconscious, God can show you. That can then be removed, healed and restored.

Taking Thoughts Captive

Your imagination is neutral. If it is primed for death or destruction, ask why. Have you seen or watched things that lodged fear in your heart and mind? If so, those images can be purged. Your imagination and heart can be purified—by God’s love, by His power, by the blood of Jesus. Imagine it being washed clean, painted over, covered entirely, and removed.

You do not need to try and feel loved. Just relax and allow God to love you. Eventually, you will begin to recognise His love in a way that is meaningful to you. That might be through feeling emotionally close. It might be a sense of peace, blessing or comfort. Whatever that unique language is, God wants to speak it to you.

Tune in

Do not assume God is only going to speak with a voice in your head. You need to learn to discern His communication—to tune into it. Think of it like an old radio. At first, all you hear is static. Then you turn the dial and maybe catch a snatch of sound, until suddenly you tune it in and hear clearly.

It is like that with God. There may be lots of noise, lots of interference. But once you find the right frequency, you will begin to hear. Your frequency may be different to someone else’s. That is fine. Just find how you connect. You might feel, or sense, or simply know. It might not be words at all—it could be intuition. All of these are ways God chooses to communicate, and He will tailor it to you.

So just relax. God loves you. He loves you more than you know. He loves you right now—and that is enough. His love will never fail. It will never give up. It will never let you go. He wants you to live in the love, joy and peace of His presence—and enjoy it every single day.
