I think cardiognosis is often perceived as being connected to the Father’s heart and, therefore, the knowledge of his heart. That is true, and a heart-to-heart relationship with him will give us an unfolding knowledge of his heart. However, it’s not necessarily a cognitive process where he tells us things directly. Rather, it’s about knowing—a deeper knowing.
To truly feel the heart of God, our own hearts must expand. We cannot contain the fullness of God’s heart if our own is fractured, damaged or broken. Wholeness is essential. Beyond that, our hearts must grow in their capacity for compassion and love as we grow and mature. This level of love requires an expansion of our heart.
We also have a choice—we can open our hearts towards certain things, or we can close them. To open our hearts means giving access to those things God is working with or for. When we feel his heart, God desires that we respond out of his heart, motivated by his compassion, rather than out of duty or obligation. It’s not about thinking, “Oh, God has shown me something, so I suppose I’d better do this.” Instead, it’s about being moved by his desire and compassion as we come to know and discern his heart. This process is an intimate cardiognosis—a heart-to-heart revelation.
Engage with creation
We can also open our hearts towards other things. For example, there have been times when I’ve engaged with creation, and my heart has expanded. I’ve felt the sadness, loneliness and disconnect of creation, which stirred a deeper desire for its restoration and freedom. Engaging with a situation in such a way allows our hearts to expand and to develop a greater love, compassion and connection than we might have experienced before.
As we operate in sonship and the desires that come with it, we begin to see, feel and sense things differently. This awareness prevents us from becoming oblivious to what’s happening around us. Instead, we engage it. I can reach out to creation and engage in cardiognosis with it. I can open my heart to feel what creation is experiencing.
Similarly, I can open my heart towards others. When I speak at conferences, I choose to open my heart and spirit to the people there. I surround the space—wherever it might be—with my spirit to create a safe environment where people could engage with me. In doing so, I become more aware of their needs and am drawn to speak about what is most relevant to them.
In the past, I engaged my spirit to create a safe place, but I’ve since learned to engage my heart as well. It’s not just about creating a safe space but about making it a place of real connection. This requires a willingness to feel.
Open our hearts to experience
Years ago, empathy was often encouraged. Some would intercede for others by empathising with their pain, sometimes expressing this through wailing or outward emotional displays. I don’t think that is really what it is talking about. It is not about feeling someone’s pain and becoming emotionally broken. Instead, I would focus on relating to where someone is and being motivated to engage with them for their good, rather than simply sympathise with them. Some of what I saw in intercession didn’t sit well with me. Perhaps it’s because I’m not mercy-gift oriented, but I felt that all they were doing was wailing without actually achieving anything. Did it achieve anything? Maybe it did. But it didn’t feel like where I was, and I certainly didn’t respond in that way very often.
But I do feel I can choose to open my heart. I can choose to engage my heart and my emotions to feel and sense and be more connected to a
person, or a situation, or creation itself; and this is what I believe cardiognosis to be. It’s not about intellectual knowledge but experiential knowledge—knowing through experience. If we don’t open our hearts to experience something, we won’t truly know it; we’ll only have information about it. True knowledge comes through personal testimony and encounter, not just information.
Engaging heart-to-heart
I believe God calls us to be holistically involved in situations. Sometimes, even our physical bodies can react or sense the dynamics of a situation. It’s about engaging with the whole of who we are—spirit, soul and body. In the past, I relied more on engaging with my spirit because I was more comfortable with that. Over time, however, I’ve allowed my emotions and heart to become more involved, engaging heart-to-heart in a way I hadn’t before.
This change has come as I’ve connected more deeply with the heart of God. That connection inspires and moves me in a way it never did before. I believe this is part of growing in true knowledge.

What has happened and what God has done—he is the same God, and he hasn’t changed. He remains a God of grace, mercy and love. If Adam hadn’t followed Eve, God’s grace, mercy and love would still have applied to her, and she could have received that if she had chosen not to continue on her own path. God would have made a way for her to be restored because his desire is always for relationship. He desires us to come into that relationship, but it requires us to let go of our own way.
Adam wasn’t deceived, though; Eve was. She was deceived into letting go of what she already had to try and attain something she could never achieve. That striving, born of separation, left her and the rest of mankind worn out, trying to become something God already saw them as. The idea of “you can be like God” was redundant because she already was like God. But now, this had to be done independently of him.
Adam chose to follow her. Perhaps it was out of a desire to see her redeemed, though he didn’t understand what would come from that decision. In doing so, both lost their identity, and the struggle to regain it brought a flood of emotions: “Who am I? Why am I here? What is all this about?” This separation affected how Adam engaged with God, no longer able to connect with him as he once had. Yet, even then, God met them. While they hid in the bushes, feeling guilty, naked and ashamed, God came to them.
Throughout history, God has continued to meet us, drawing us back into relationship with him. If Eve had chosen to turn back, would she have had to wait for Jesus? No. The fiery sword was there, and she could have chosen to enter. Perhaps Adam might have helped her to do so. But, in the end, they didn’t. They chose otherwise, setting humanity on this independent path that so many still follow today.
Jesus came to fully undo everything lost through their choices. God has remained consistent—a loving, merciful God who has always worked to restore us. This is why I don’t believe Eve would have been banished forever or left without the opportunity to return. God’s grace and mercy would have triumphed over her mistakes.
Their choice, however, shaped human history. Their line brought forth the promise of redemption in Jesus, as prophesied. He overcame, undoing the enemy’s deception. The same enemy who had deceived Eve tried to deceive Jesus in the wilderness, offering shortcuts and power apart from God. But Jesus resisted, succeeding where Adam and Eve had failed.
Through Jesus, we now have the opportunity to experience what Adam and Eve were originally designed to enjoy. God’s loving kindness never changes or fails, and whatever it would have taken for Eve to be restored would have been possible. His grace, mercy and love would always have been sufficient. Although they didn’t make that choice, Jesus came to undo the damage, restoring our vision of who we are so we can live in that truth.
When it comes to the fear of God, I think we need to move beyond the word “fear” as something associated with being afraid – being afraid of someone or being afraid of God. Instead, think of awe and respect, a deep sense of reverence for who God really is. In this way, there is no need to reconcile fear with love. Perfect love casts out fear, so it cannot mean being afraid of God in the sense of fearing what He might do or fearing punishment.
God didn’t kill Ananias and Sapphira
In the story of Ananias and Sapphira, it was not actually God who killed them. What happened was that, rather than administering God’s love and forgiveness, Peter spoke death over them, and the power of his words caused their deaths. Nowhere in the story does it say God killed them or took any direct action against them. It was the guilt they felt, combined with Peter’s lack of forgiveness, that caused this. God did not intend for this; His mercy would overcome anything we do. So, God does not kill people, nor does He punish. Perfect love is an expression of God’s best for people, and God wants to bring good out of every situation. When you read the story of Ananias and Sapphira, you see that it was Peter who cursed them, not God. This highlights the power of words and the authority Peter had, but he was acting out of the wrong spirit. He should have forgiven them, said, “God forgives you, let us restore you.” We are meant to carry one another’s burdens, not to punish each other.
Reverence, Respect and Honour
So, what is a practical example of the fear of God in action, when you understand it as reverence, respect and honour? It would be me going before the throne of God, falling on my face and casting my crowns before him in awe. There’s that sense of “Wow, you are so awesome, so wonderful.” There’s a weight to his presence that is amazing. But in another instance, I might sit on the Father’s lap on the throne of grace, feeling nothing but His pleasure and desire for me, simply enjoying His presence – which I do often. So, do not assume that just because the Bible says “the fear of God is the beginning of wisdom,” that it means being afraid of him. Honouring God for who He is as the source of all wisdom and knowledge is the beginning of wisdom. The evangelical Christian world often programmes us to fear God to keep us in line. But, in reality, it is His love, His joy, and the wonderful peace and rest I have in Him that keep me following Him – not a fear of punishment. I do not worry that if I get something wrong, He will punish me or that something bad will happen to me. In fact, if I fear that something bad will happen, that fear could invite it into my life. Fear is like negative faith, generating a negative force in my life if I believe it. But God is never going to do that to me.
Rob, Kill and Destroy
Who does function in fear? The enemy seeks to rob, kill and destroy, and he will use our fear against us. This is what happened with Ananias and Sapphira: their guilt and Peter’s words allowed life to be taken from them. They lost their future because they were not restored. But as soon as they entered the realms of heaven as part of the cloud of witnesses, which they now are, every tear and regret would have been washed away. They would hold no negative memory of what they did, having been made whole. Now, they are part of the cloud of witnesses, fully restored, having forgiven Peter, who also realises that his actions were not good. Hopefully, God would have shown him this when he entered that realm, so he would not carry any regret, fear, or negativity with him either.
Unconditional Love of God
God is unconditionally loving towards us, though there are consequences to what we do. These consequences can bring about certain outcomes, but God’s mercy seeks to overcome them. So do not feel guilt, shame or condemnation – those feelings never come from God. Always receive forgiveness, reconciliation and restoration, for those are what God brings. God wants to love you so deeply that you know you are unconditionally loved and can come to know who you truly are. From that place, you can enjoy life, resting in His goodness, mercy, and love.

I want to share some insights into our core or innermost being, known as the Merkabah, and delve deeper into its significance. The Merkabah serves as a focal point for the “rivers of living water”—the flow of abundant, immortal life and spiritual energy distributed within us. It grants us access to limitless grace and living light energy. But what is the Merkabah, and how can we activate and use it practically?
You may encounter many interpretations of the Merkabah online, some of which might seem weird or mystical. If you decide to research further, please use discernment, as there is a lot of misleading information about it. You’ll likely come across mystical and New Age concepts that use similar terminology but may obscure the truth with layers of deception. The words may sound the same, but the truth can be hidden, which is why spiritual discernment is essential.
I would not recommend delving into Jewish mystical texts like the Kabbalah for the truth. Jesus is the Truth, and we do not need to seek it in old religions that ceased with the destruction of the temple. You might find terms like “sacred geometry,” “Sephiroth,” or “Metatron’s Cube,” which may be confusing or even enticing. I encourage you to focus on God, Jesus the Truth, and the Holy Spirit as our guide on this journey of discovery.
Please do not just accept what I am saying. Take it back to the Father and get first-hand revelation (not information) so that you can embrace it for yourselves.
Merkabah, which you may sometimes see spelt “Merkabah” or “Merkaba,” is actually three words combined: “Mer,” meaning a light rotating within itself; “Ka,” which refers to the human spirit; and “Ba,” signifying the physical body or the reality that the spirit holds. In the Bible, “Merkabah” is translated as “chariot” and appears 44 times, often a vehicle of light or a chariot of divine power.
In Ezekiel, for instance, the throne of God is described as the Merkabah, represented by a four-wheel chariot driven by four living creatures, the Chayoth,—each having four wings and four faces (man, lion, ox and eagle). These figures symbolise aspects of our nature aligned with the order of Melchizedek, a topic for further exploration. In other texts like Jeremiah and Isaiah, Merkabah is associated with chariots in a whirlwind, underscoring its connection to divine movement and power.
In Ezekiel, three angelic types are linked to the Merkabah: the Chayoth (living creatures), the Ophanim (wheels within wheels), and the Seraphim (burning ones). These beings often connect to humanity’s cherubic nature, carrying God’s image through the four faces of the order of Melchizedek: Lion, Ox, Eagle and Man; or King, Prophet/Oracle, Legislator and Priest. In 1 Chronicles 28, the instructions given to build the temple link the chariot (merkabah) with the Cherubim and the Ark of the Covenant.
The Merkabah is described as a spirit body surrounded by counter-rotating fields of light, the “wheels within wheels,” spirals of energy that allow the spirit body to transcend dimensions: the “chariot of ascension”. In ancient Egyptian thought it was rotating light that would transport the spirit and body from one realm to another. It is often represented by two interconnected tetrahedrons of light, forming a “stellar octangular” or a star tetrahedron—a symmetrical geometric shape where one tetrahedron points upwards and the other downwards. Other sacred geometrical shapes are contained within it, such as the seed of life and Metatron’s cube. It represents heaven and earth, connected through our spiritual and physical positions.
However, our focus is not on its appearance but on how it functions and how we can engage with it practically in our lives. The Merkabah connects to our energy field and operates as a transducer of zero-point energy—a limitless source of life-giving energy, essential for health and wholeness. This energy field can fluctuate between low frequencies, which might bring imbalance or illness, and higher frequencies that foster abundant life and unity. The Merkabah is woven into our genetic code, our eternal identity, and the merging of the eternal with the physical. It reveals the true essence of who we are in God and in union of spirit, soul and body.
According to Ecclesiastes, eternity has been set in our hearts, and I believe this eternity is the Merkabah, where time and eternity converge within us. Here, our innermost being resonates with our original identity in God. Our existence is designed to be at rest, balanced in love, joy, and peace—a harmonious state that releases the energy of immortality. This requires integration of spirit, soul and body, a unity that releases abundant life and limitless energy. Immortality is challenging when we’re fragmented or divided; it requires transformation, a surrender of the soul to let divine energy flow from within.
The Merkabah is composed of intertwining layers of living light, quantum or “zero-point” energy, creating a tight matrix at our core that, when activated, begins to spin and grow. This spinning light appears spherical and acts as a conduit, interfacing with the unified quantum field around us. It allows us to connect with everything, as it ties into the divine fabric, the ether, in which all creation is held together.
The Merkabah acts as a conduit for zero-point energy, drawing limitless energy into the body. As the sons of God, we may soon understand how to tap into this energy source, enabling us to function independently of earthly power grids. Imagine the potential—one sugar cube of zero-point energy could power 400 billion galaxies!
Uses of the Merkabah
Safety
One of the Merkabah’s purposes is safety, or protection. The Merkabah is an energy field—a generator, really. Now, I know this may sound like science fiction, but it’s actually something that science is beginning to uncover. This energy generates a protective field around us that shields us from all sorts of harmful forces—whether entities, physical attacks, or even negative electromagnetic fields. All those things that can impact us physically, the Merkabah can help shield us from by creating a protective barrier from within.
Travel
Another powerful use of the Merkabah is travel. The Merkabah can transport us—body, soul and spirit—from one place to another. This means it can enable translation, transrelocation, and even trans-dimensional movement, all powered by the energy within.
Healing and Regeneration
The Merkabah is also instrumental in healing and regeneration. It can help rejuvenate our soul and physical body by generating abundant life energy within. This energy works with our subtle energy fields, interacting with the natural flows within us. Many years ago, concepts like energy meridians might have been dismissed as quack medicine, but they are now being recognised scientifically. More and more, people are using these insights to generate healing frequencies that support wholeness. As we connect with the unified field, this energy flows in, raising our frequency and helping us live in the fullness of life, health and even immortality.
This healing energy from the Merkabah is not just about extending life—it is about living with abundance and vitality. We don’t just want to ‘not die’; we want to thrive and be who we are meant to be in relationship with God. And this energy flows through frequencies of intention—love, joy, and peace—bringing us into rest and helping us access the life force of God within. In my own meditations around rest, I have learned to draw on this flow of love, joy and peace. I have experienced that deep stillness, learning how this energy flows and works within, and have trained my senses, as described in John 4 and John 7, where rivers of living water can flow from our being, energising our core and distributing life through the seven gates, or chakras.
The Seven Energy Gates (Chakras)
These energy gates are also known as seals or chakras. ‘Chakra’ is just a Sanskrit term meaning “disc of energy.” There are seven primary gates: the crown, third eye, throat, heart, solar plexus, sacral, and root. Each has its own function:
– Crown: Connects us to the heavenly realm
– Heart: Grounds us in the realm we live in
– Root: Links us to the rest of creation
These three are foundational; the other chakras come into play when we function in insight, communication, creativity, or feeling. All seven gates work together to generate the energy we need to fulfil our calling and purpose on a daily basis.
The Merkabah can be activated and developed through intentional practice, meditation, and by focusing our consciousness. From a place of rest, energy flows more powerfully, energising spirit, soul and body, creating an energy field around us. This is like the story of the temple described in Ezekiel, from which living water flows outward, becoming ankle-deep, knee-deep, waist-deep and so on, bringing life wherever it goes.
The Merkabah can be developed or enhanced by drawing energy down from heaven to earth through our body as a gateway; through our first love gate, through the very presence of Father, Son and Spirit in us. Conscious intentional grounding allows flowing of spiritual energy from
the River of Life into and through the body, and it is both cleansing and
energising. it is a flow of Living Water which is designed to bring about the
abundance that God intends us to live in.
Signalling and Communication
The Merkabah also connects us to the grace of God and the living light within everything, enabling us to communicate with others, angelic beings, and all of creation, even across dimensions. Using the principle of quantum entanglement, our spirit can reach anywhere within the universe, instantly connecting us to that reality. This allows us to connect with and engage across realms in a way that transcends both distance and time.
Sensitivity
Through practice, using the Merkabah increases our sensitivity to physical and spiritual sensations. We learn to tune into energy fields, sensing the atmospheres in different spaces. Hebrews 5:14 talks about training our senses to discern between good and evil, which is achievable through intentional practice.
Joy Joy, too, is associated with the Merkabah; as Jesus said, His joy is within us so our joy may be complete. When we are filled with energy and health, we are naturally more joyful and grateful, and that overflows as positive, life-giving energy toward others and creation.
Abilities
With the Merkabah, we also have the potential to unlock spiritual abilities such as telepathy, telekinesis, pre- and post-cognition, and enhanced creativity. These gifts, aligned with our identity in God, are part of how we were originally created.
Broadcasting
The Merkabah lets us broadcast energy—reaching others, in this and other realms and even in other dimensions. Through focused, intentional energy, we connect and make these connections with people, realms and more. I have done this many times; to begin with I did not know how to do it, other than just do it! But then God then showed me that this is what the energy in me enabled me to do; when I released it from my innermost being, it was energised within the Merkabah and connected me to other realms, dimensions, and particularly to people I was trying to reach and connect with in this realm.
The frequency of our sonship is broadcast through the Merkabah within us, which contains multiple portals designed to connect with various dimensions of heaven and other dimensional realities. These dimensions are tuning into our frequency, seeking connection and help. Our responsibility is to ensure we broadcast love, joy, peace and rest, intentionally focusing positive energy across these portals. This is how I engage effortlessly—by choosing to connect through my innermost being, not my mind, but through a union of thought and being, aligned with the Father’s heart and intentions as He reveals them to me.
Convergence and Coherence
The Merkabah serves as a hub that connects us to God’s heart and our heavenly identity and position of government in Christ, bringing heaven to earth. We are intended to be a point of convergence between time and eternity, heaven and earth. When we are in this state, there is a coherence—a rhythm of the heart, mind and spirit working in unity. We are designed to operate in harmony, without discord, which is when our spirit, soul and body are truly in union and oneness. This is the ideal state for living in health, wholeness, and even immortality.
Non-linear, multidimensional lifestyle
When the heart, mind and emotions align, we find ourselves in harmony with God, with each other and with creation. Everything was made to be in union, to be one. As we grow into our identity as sons of God, we mature into a non-linear, multidimensional way of life, much like Adam would have if he had continued along the path of the Tree of Life toward an ascended state. Through this journey, we discover how to reconnect to the Eternal Now—outside the realms of time and space. Unconditional love will gradually transform us, transfiguring our bodies and renewing our minds into a fully expanded state of consciousness. This is not just knowledge; it is a deep awareness of who we truly are. We will live in complete knowledge of our identity as sons of God, rooted in rest—a state of being rather than doing. Everything flows naturally from this place of rest. We no longer need to “do” to find our identity.
We can start by visualising the Gateway of First Love opening within us, connecting with the life energy of love, joy and peace as a river of living water. This living water flows in us, fills us, and then flows through us, allowing a stream of spiritual energy to circulate within and around us. By consciously surrendering to this flow, instead of resisting or trying to control it, we we consciously choose to be in harmony—spirit, soul and body united and whole. When we are in sync, we can intentionally activate our energy gates, visualising the “wheels within wheels” spinning and generating a powerful flow of life force energy. This flow energises the Merkabah, creating a kind of hydroelectric turbine effect that powers our abilities, enabling us to operate at our full potential, beyond the limitations we have been used to.
At this level, we become co-creators with God. We are not just observers but participants in the creative process, able to engage frequencies of light, sound and intention to manifest our choices and bring new realities into being. For example, the first time I created something, it was at the Father’s prompting. Without fully understanding how, I trusted His guidance and released a creative energy from within my innermost being, which took form as a galaxy. Over time, I learned to do this intentionally, responding to the Father’s call by focusing my energy and intention. In another instance, I released a blue light, calling people to arise in their sonship. Now, I understand how this energy flows from within me, and I have repeated it numerous times.
On one more recent occasion, I was asked by Guardians in a heavenly courtroom to create more Guardians, as they were needed. At first, I hesitated and checked it out with the Father, as He had not asked me directly. He reassured me, reminding me that I knew how to release creative energy, just as I had done before. So, aligning my intention with the Father’s heart, I created the Guardians and assigned them to the Council, who then placed them to dimensional portals in constellations across the cosmos. I shared this experience with others; some asked, “Can we do that?”—and they did. They approached it with their own (perhaps more creative) style, coming up with descriptions of what the Guardians looked like, their colours, and all the details. For me, it was more about just releasing that creative energy from within. All of us can do that. We each have the Father, Son and Spirit’s creative force within us; we just need to focus it with intention and a willing “yes.”
When we pray for someone or lay hands on them for healing, the energy we draw on is the life of God flowing through us. It is not from us independently; it is the river of life within, redirected to a specific need—someone’s DNA, heart or body. Sometimes healing happens even when we are not fully aware of what we are doing, but as we grow in understanding, we become more intentional, seeking alignment with the Father’s heart. Jesus did only what He saw the Father doing, and this is how we are called to operate as well: in love, rest, humility, and from the Father’s heart. This way, we avoid drawing attention to ourselves or taking any glory. Living this way, we become vessels of God’s love and creative energy, bringing freedom, restoration and healing.
This may all sound rather technical, and it can be complex, but for me it’s simply the life I live. I have practised and developed these ways of operating until they have become second nature. Now, I no longer have to think about activating gateways or focusing on specific aspects of my identity. Instead, I am constantly connected with the Father’s heart and receiving whatever knowledge I need from Him. As I walk in my identity as a son, all I require to fulfil my purpose flows to me naturally.
For the most part, this means I just enjoy everyday life. I live each day in love, joy and peace. I live loved, I love living and I live loving. Admittedly, it’s not always easy, and there are people we are called to love who may not “deserve” it (by our standards). But if Jesus could forgive those who hurt Him, then we too can extend unconditional love. By embodying this love, we become a channel for living energy in the world, bringing life wherever we go and contributing to the restoration of all things.
Our destiny as sons of God is to release this love and creative power in everyday life, transforming and renewing the world around us simply by being who we are. When we allow God’s life and energy to flow through us, we create a field of love that touches and changes lives. Just by ‘being’, we can bring about transformation and let the reality of God’s love impact everyone we encounter.
Activation: Energise the Merkabah
Close your eyes.
Start breathing slowly.
breathe in slowly;
hold it,
and breathe out slowly,
breathing in
the very breath of God,
the life of God,
focusing your thinking on God who is love.
And as you’re breathing in,
let love flow, flow and flow into you,
flow around you, flow into you,
and let it rest upon you so you can be still.
Let God love you,
And feel and sense
the unconditional nature of that love,
where you can be still and know that He is love.
You can be still and know that He is love.
Be still and know that He is joy.
Be still and know that He is peace.
Be still and know that He is truth,
and light, and life,
and limitless grace and triumphant mercy.
It may take a little bit of time sometimes
to slow down your thinking and focus on love.
Come to that place of love.
[And as you’re doing that,
I’m just going to release some sounds,
and these frequencies.
I want to encourage you
to let the frequency and sound
of the intention of love
touch your physical,
emotional,
and spiritual being.
Let this sound go around you,
and in you and through you
generating energy, frequency.]
Jesus is knocking on that door within your first love gate,
you can picture that door, picture Him knocking.
Beyond that door is a well;
choose to open the door
and drink from the well, from the fountain.
It’s living water.
It’s flowing as a frequency and an energy of life.
And as it begins to flow,
flow with it as it forms a river.
Choose to flow with it
as these waves of energy,
begin to flow within your innermost being;
that river flowing through the gateways of your spirit,
flowing through your soul,
just beginning to converge in the core of your being,
the Merkabah
which begins to energise –
energy forming, spinning, increasing.
Flowing from you,
as rivers of living water
energising each gate.
Energising your crown,
your ability to connect to heaven.
Energising your spiritual insight,
knowing truth and revelation;
Energising what you think and what you say,
when you speak,
speaking with the energy
of the voice of God as an oracle,
Energising your heart,
feeling and releasing love,
unconditional love.
Each of those seven gates,
the creativity, feelings
deep within your innermost being,
the gut instincts, the knowing,
energised, connecting you to creation, the root
grounded with that unified quantum field.
You are connected,
you can become spaghettified,
every atom of your being can be connected to creation.
Feel and sense creation.
Feel and sense your sonship touching creation – broadcasting, communicating, beyond yourself,
through those portals within your innermost being.
You may want to travel along that portal,
you may want to send a message,
an intention of love to someone in particular.
Focus that intention of love
and let it travel through that entanglement you have
with someone that you carry in your heart,
to touch them with love.
Limitless energy
generated from your innermost being,
flowing around you,
creating an energy field –
a field of light,
a field of love.
You can choose to stay in that place.
If you’re engaged, just feel free to stay there.
This is not something that is just a one-off, but something that we need to develop. We need to practise day after day,
practise generating flow; so that we can learn to become sensitive, and learn to focus these things in our lives, and through our lives to others and out into creation itself.
Your age does not have to dictate a decline in energy or health. In fact, I have more energy now than I did in my twenties. I can manage my energy because I generate what I need to do whatever I need to accomplish. This highlights that physical age is not the same as how one feels or lives. For instance, I am 66 years old, but how I feel and how I live are what truly matter. While it is true that everyone gets older with each passing day, this does not necessarily lead to decline, either in health or vitality. Ageing does not have to bring deterioration to the cells, as my own cells are functioning perfectly well.
From this perspective, it is about mindset rather than appearance. There are people—like desert fathers or ancient ones—who, while they may not look young, possess the ability to choose how they experience life. For example, a friend of mine encountered someone ancient in spirit, and at different times, this person appeared both young and old. When asked how this was possible, the person replied that they could choose how they appeared.
Sometimes, people associate wisdom with age or appearance, while others see youth as a purely physical attribute. However, it is actually the mindset by which one lives that determines the true measure of vitality, not how one looks. This ancient person explained that they could appear a certain age to some, and another age to others, depending on what they wished to convey. I believe that when we embrace the mindset of immortality, we are no longer controlled by age; instead, we rule over it. Immortality becomes an expression of our state of being and consciousness, rather than just physical appearance.
For example, Jesus appeared differently to different people after His resurrection. When He appeared to Mary, she did not recognise Him as Jesus and mistook Him for a gardener. Some may say that she was crying and thus could not see clearly, but that is not the case. Similarly, on the road to Emmaus, Jesus walked with disciples who knew Him, yet they did not recognise Him either. His appearance must have changed, only revealing Himself to them later in a form they could recognise. When He appeared to Thomas, He allowed him to see His wounds as proof of who He was. I do not think He carried those wounds everywhere, but He revealed them specifically so Thomas could see and believe.
I firmly believe that, as we live more fully in this reality of sonship, we will be able to choose our appearance. Personally, I do not worry about how I look, as I know how I feel and how I live. I do not need to look twenty; that would be quite odd for my family and those around me. While it would not bother me to look twenty, I am content with my 66-year-old appearance. More importantly, the cells in my body are not decaying, because ageing is not synonymous with death.
Jesus aged from infancy to His thirties, and had He not given Himself up to death, He would have continued ageing without succumbing to natural causes. He chose death so He could take on our mortality and bring us life through His resurrection. Therefore, it is all about the mindset we choose to live in. I live in a mindset of immortality, where physical ageing is irrelevant.
I have no desire to be alive at a hundred if I am not fully healthy and able to fulfil my purpose. What is the point of living if one is not enjoying life, full of energy and vitality? This is why many people do not consider immortality; they do not want to continue living the kind of life they currently lead. But for me, I am fully at peace with my life and I enjoy it. I believe we will learn to live in this world without being subject to it, focusing on the quality of life rather than merely its duration.
Quality of life
The quality of life, not just the fact that it will not end, is what defines true immortality. You could live for 500 years, but if you are bedridden and immobile, the quality of life is lacking. Immortal life is more about the quality of existence than the simple fact of not dying. The key question is, what quality of life would you choose to have, and can you maintain it despite the pressures around us that encourage the acceptance of death?
From a young age, people are programmed to see ageing as leading inevitably to death, rather than to wisdom or maturity in sonship—the state of living as a fully realised child of God. This mindset must shift to one of immortality, where age is irrelevant and eternal life is defined by the abilities and opportunities it offers. These abilities include the capacity to dwell in both spiritual and physical realms, travel by thought, and exist in multiple dimensions. Immortality is far more than the absence of death; it is about living life in its fullest, as God intended.
Many people have different views on immortality. Some might think it simply means not dying, but in reality, it requires preparation for a long and fulfilling life. How will you live if death is no longer a concern? Jesus promised abundant life, yet the enemy seeks to rob, kill, and destroy. The focus should not be on avoiding death but on embracing the abundance of life that Jesus promised.
Consider this: if you were to live for the next hundred years, would you continue working to earn a wage, or would you find a way to provide for yourself supernaturally? These are important questions because our current financial systems are not designed to last for centuries. Most pension schemes are built on the assumption that people will live for a few decades beyond retirement, not a hundred years. If your pension pot runs dry, what then? The financial systems of the world, which rely on electronic money with no real assets behind them, are fragile. When they collapse, we will need a new way of living—one that is not dependent on these systems.
God will give us insight into how to prepare for this future, so we can live free from the world’s control. Jesus, after His resurrection, was able to manifest food and ate with His disciples. There are even people today, known as breatharians, who believe they can survive on air alone. These are just some examples of how we might live differently if we embrace a mindset of immortality and prepare for the changes to come.
As systems collapse—financial, political, and otherwise—people will need to look for solutions beyond what the world currently offers. This could be a manifestation of God’s Kingdom on Earth, as it is in Heaven. Those who trust in today’s systems will find themselves needing to transition to something new, and we, too, must find a way to live in alignment with Heaven’s reality.
So, it is not enough to say, “I will not die.” The real question is, “How will I live?” Abundant life is our focus, not merely the avoidance of death. We should be asking ourselves what that abundant life looks like and preparing for it now, with a perspective that enables us to choose our reality. Many people are not yet thinking this way, but it is a mindset we can all embrace.
We cannot know who God really is other than through unconditional love, and we cannot know our true identity other than through unconditional love, because it is revealed in that loving relationship with God himself. The verse I want to highlight here is Jeremiah 17:9. When you compare the NIV with the Septuagint, you see how God’s view of mankind has been twisted by the incorrect translation of this verse.
In the NIV, it reads: “The heart is deceitful above all things.” That’s a powerful statement. “And beyond cure.” Well, that’s a pretty hopeless statement: “The heart is deceitful above all things and beyond cure. Who can understand it?” Now, that statement has had a major effect on how people view themselves and others, putting them in a position where the soul is never fully healed, made whole, or restored, because if it’s so wicked, deceitful, and beyond cure, how can it be? It’s beyond healing, beyond restoration. But I don’t believe that’s true.
The heart of man is deep
So, what does the Septuagint say? In Jeremiah 17:9 (which is Jeremiah 17:5 in the Septuagint due to the differences in verse structure), it says: “The heart of man is deep beyond all things, and it is the man. Even so, who can know him?” In reality, what this is saying is that our heart is not wicked, deceitful, and beyond cure. Instead, it is deep beyond anything we could understand ourselves, and it really is who we are. Therefore, we cannot know who we really are in our own flesh, in our own understanding; it has to come through our relationship with God.
This different translation shapes how we perceive ourselves and others. The NIV gives a very low view of humanity. I was conditioned by that view: man being wicked, corrupted, totally depraved. It created a theological spectrum of “worm theology” – the belief that you are no one and nothing, and you had better hope that God has mercy on you. Even after receiving salvation, many Christians still don’t believe who they truly are. They still believe they need to be humble and think poorly of themselves, giving them a diminished view of being sons and Christians, less than what God intended us to have.
The value of the soul
If our heart is deceitful, desperately wicked, and beyond cure, then what hope is there for us? It fosters the mindset of always being a sinner “saved by grace.” It’s a bit like the story of Winnie the Pooh and Eeyore, who always has this downbeat attitude: “Oh, I’m no good, and everything is going to be bad.” It creates that dynamic. This degrades the soul’s value and worth, leading to a belief that you can never really trust it.
When we first enter into a relationship where our spirit and soul are reconnected with the Holy Spirit, there’s a struggle between the soul and spirit. The soul is accustomed to dictating how we live based on what we believe, our upbringing, and our experiences, while the spirit brings us into the revelation of who we really are, revealing our true eternal nature. It draws us back to the fact that God has placed eternity in our hearts and wants to bring us into an amazing relationship, where we come home and return to Him.
That relationship is completely undermined by the degrading of the value of the soul. In the early church, especially within the Catholic tradition, this mindset led to self-persecution – people whipping themselves, kneeling on broken glass, and engaging in horrendous acts. Why did they think that way? Because they believed they were lesser than God intended. This view creates suspicion of the soul and devalues humanity. By degrading humanity, there’s a gospel message to sell: “We’re so bad, we need saving,” using the fear of punishment to sell that message.
Fearfully and wonderfully made
The reality is, God doesn’t view us as bad. He sees us through the lens of Jesus and who He made us to be – His sons. We’ve always been His sons; we’ve never not been His sons. But that’s not how I was taught to believe. I was taught to believe that I wasn’t good enough and never would be. And while we can’t be good enough in our own strength, when we become who we truly are, we begin to live out a whole different dynamic of sonship.
The Septuagint actually says the heart of man is deep beyond all things, and it is the man. The human heart is deep, multifaceted, and amazing, created in God’s image and likeness. Psalm 139 says we are fearfully and wonderfully made. God has a vast sum of amazing thoughts about us, and we need to learn those thoughts. Our minds need to be deconstructed from the negative things we might have believed, so we can know the truth of agreeing with God about who we really are.
A lot of our understanding of the Old Testament comes from what we’ve been taught from a very literal perspective. However, much of the Old Testament can also be figurative. There’s poetry, and all sorts of things which can have a deeper meaning for us. In Noah’s day, the flood is often referred to in terms of Jesus being the Saviour, and it’s illustrative of how God came and rescued those who were willing to get on the ark.
What we must be careful of is not taking this too literally, as it was written with a different understanding of God. They didn’t have the New Testament understanding of God, nor did they know God in the way Jesus revealed Him. Their perspective was through their own understanding at the time. When we look at it now, we see it doesn’t line up with the God that Jesus came to reveal. So it’s our understanding that needs adjusting, not the idea that God was ever like that. God didn’t destroy the world.
Figuratively as well as literally
Now, there are those who say, “Yes, but the world was totally corrupt, and there were no genetically pure people left other than Noah.” Illustratively, of course, God desires that nothing within us be contrary to His image, the image He created us in. Our lives are being transformed by the renewing of our minds so that we come into that correct image. You can view these things figuratively as well as literally.
When it comes to questions like Sodom and Gomorrah—who caused the fire and brimstone? Well, who causes earthquakes? God doesn’t cause them. Who causes many other things? These are often the result of the natural world being in tension, not yet restored, groaning and longing for the sons of God to be revealed.
Fire and brimstone
Now, when you look at fire and brimstone—fire is often seen as God’s consuming fire. But we tend to think God destroyed them with fire. Fire could also be seen as a purifying force, a purification of what Sodom and Gomorrah represented, rather than a literal destruction of two cities. Some people believe they’ve found Sodom and Gomorrah, pointing to tar pits in the Middle East.
Brimstone actually means “God’s presence”—it’s the word “sulfur.” Brimstone is mentioned in the Book of Revelation, and the word used is “Theon,” from “Theos,” meaning “God.” So, brimstone signifies the presence of God, and God’s presence is purifying. These stories can be seen in that light. I know God didn’t cause these events because He doesn’t pour down judgment on people in that way. However, He does judge things that operate against the truth and will bring fire and brimstone to anything in our lives that hinders us from knowing and experiencing the truth and His love. But He’s not destroying people—He’s destroying the obstacles in our way.
There are different ways to look at it. Ultimately, I believe that God is love, God is good, and what He intends for us is to know His goodness and love. A lot of the Old Testament stories are figurative, but they’re written in a way that often doesn’t differentiate clearly between sowing and reaping. If someone sowed something bad, they reaped the consequences, not from God, but as a result of their actions.
The one who accuses
So, who brings about the consequence? The one who accuses and then comes to execute that accusation. We sow, and we reap the accusations against us for what we’ve sown. You could say the enemy brought the fire. In the undifferentiated view of God, if something bad happened, they thought God must have done it. But it could have been the enemy bringing the consequences of their behaviour, as the enemy seeks to rob, kill, and destroy.
Jesus said the enemy comes to do just that. So, who brought fire and brimstone? The enemy. Who brought the flood? You could say the enemy, or you could say the Earth itself reacted to the violence and horror, as described in Genesis 6, where violence was continual. The Earth washed itself clean. There are different ways to view it.
God is good
What I do know is that God is love, God is good, and He doesn’t kill or punish anyone, even if the Old Testament seems to say otherwise. Jesus came to reveal the truth. He said, “You’ve heard it said, but I’m saying to you,” and “If you’ve seen me, you’ve seen the Father.” Jesus didn’t destroy anyone. He only wanted to gather them to Himself because that’s what love does.

When I’m talking about the unconditional love of God, it’s my personal experience that God loves me unconditionally. That doesn’t mean things don’t go wrong. His love for me is His love for me as a person, and therefore, no matter what happens to me, or what I’ve done, or what’s been done to me, His love doesn’t change. But that doesn’t mean He can step in and change everything for everybody. We live in a world that is fallen, a world that is broken. It’s being restored, but it’s not yet fully restored, so things do go wrong.
I don’t have an answer, obviously, as to why some prayers seem to work, and some prayers don’t. We do things that we think are right, yet things don’t always work out. There’s no real answer to that. But when I have experienced God’s unconditional love—and it is an experience, not just a belief—I don’t believe in God’s unconditional love; I know His unconditional love through experience. God loves you as an individual, and that love is unconditional.
Difficult things happen
Unconditional love keeps no record of the past and wants to bless you for the future. In the context of free will, which God has given everyone, we live in a world where difficult things happen and people make choices. We live in a world that is not yet fully restored. When I look at sickness, disease or tragedies, whether they be earthquakes or other disasters, because I know God loves me in that way, and I have that face-to-face relationship with Him, it doesn’t cause me to doubt God. I realise that God can’t stop everything; otherwise, there would be no free choice, and therefore no love. You can’t love someone by force, and God doesn’t want us to be forced to love Him. He wants us to choose to love Him.
Unconditional love goes both ways, of course. In fact, love has to be unconditional, or it isn’t love. If God puts a condition on His love, then I’m earning a reward for my behaviour. If I put a condition on God, then I’m also only loving Him because He’s done something good for me. I love God inherently because He’s my Father; I’m in relationship with Him, I know His goodness, and I choose to love Him. But I also feel that love because I’ve felt His love for me, and He’s always been there for me, no matter what has happened in my life.
Where can we go?
When I find myself in a difficult situation, unsure of what to do or think, I go to God and ask Him to reveal what He wants to reveal to me. Sometimes He provides a direct answer to my questions, and sometimes He doesn’t. But I’ve learned to trust Him. When it comes to trusting God, I think of when Jesus said to His disciples, “Are you going to leave me?” I believe this was after He talked about “Eat my flesh and drink my blood” in John 6. And the disciples said, “Where can we go? You have the words of eternal life.” For me, it’s like that: there is no one else. There is no other option. I trust God, and I know God is good.

When it comes to engaging with God throughout my day, much of it is more of a state of being rather than actively going and doing something. I find myself face to face in the spirit realm with God, heart to heart, all the time. It’s a multi-dimensional way of living, where you’re not always consciously doing something with your soul or mind. However, that doesn’t mean you aren’t spiritually engaged constantly. My soul is quantumly entangled and connected, so at the core of my being, I’m always connected to Heaven and to God.
Sometimes this connection is a cognitive engagement where we talk and share. But more often, it’s just a heart-to-heart connection—what I call ‘cardiognosis’, or knowledge of the heart, where I’m in tune with Him. My spirit is engaged, and I benefit from the flow of life, energy, revelation and truth by simply being with Him, rather than by doing many things. I actively enjoy life here, whether I’m working outside, talking to people, or doing my daily tasks. I draw on the Spirit within me, without feeling the need to do something specific to connect with God.
Resting in God’s Presence
This way of being is never a religious chore; there’s nothing I ‘have’ to do. I enjoy being in that state of rest and peace, and I remain consciously sensitive to the Father’s presence or Jesus within me, no matter what I’m doing. Whether I’m gardening, working in my workshop, or out in the fresh air, I find joy in these activities because I know God loves them too. After all, God is a great gardener, and Jesus was a carpenter. Sometimes I feel inspired, and sometimes I just sense that they’re enjoying my company as I go about my day.
I don’t engage in a lot of religious practices; instead, I enjoy just being. I enjoy hanging out, chatting and taking walks. Even when doing something mundane, like you testing milk or other routine tasks, I can still feel that connection to God’s peace and rest. The religious system often tries to convince us that we’re not doing well enough, but the truth is, God’s love is unconditional. He doesn’t place conditions on His love; He wants us to know that we’re approved and affirmed just as we are.
God simply wants relationship
God doesn’t see anyone as more important than another. He loves us all equally, even though we each have different roles in life. From God’s perspective, we are all His children, and if we can truly grasp that, we can free ourselves from the pressure of trying to serve or please God out of obligation. Jesus only did what He saw the Father doing—there was no list of tasks. Instead, He was in constant relationship with the Father. This is what Jesus was describing in John 14 when He said, “Where I am, you may be also.” He was talking about an intimate relationship of rest.
Jesus invites all who are weary and burdened to come to Him for rest. The world and the religious system often push us towards stress, striving and worry about whether we’re doing enough. But God simply wants a relationship with us. He doesn’t want servants or slaves; He wants to share life with us, enjoying our common interests.
Thankful for God’s presence
I love sharing my life with God, sensing His joy in being with me, without feeling the need to do religious tasks. I encourage you to relax, enjoy life, and take moments throughout your day to centre yourself and refocus on that place of rest. I know that when you’re busy, you need to stay focused on what you’re doing. But every now and then, it helps to pause and be thankful for God’s presence. When I first started doing this, I set my watch to ping every hour, reminding me to refocus, be grateful, and acknowledge God’s presence with me.
This practice helped me to approach my work, not as something I ‘had’ to do, but as something I did with joy. If you are testing milk, you are serving others; I see it as a way of blessing people. Everything I do is done as before God, and that makes it a blessing. I don’t worry about whether I’m doing enough because I know God’s love is unconditional. If I did nothing, He would love me just the same, and if I were busy all day, He wouldn’t love me any more.
My identity comes from being in Him, not from what I do. No matter who you are or what you do, God sees you as He created you to be. He wants us to discover our true selves, freeing us from the sense of duty and religious obligation. God doesn’t want us to do things for Him; He wants us to do things with Him. Living in that place of rest, in partnership with God, is a completely different way of being.
