When I used to think about the resurrection, my focus was very much on what Jesus did—overcoming death and defeating sin, and all of that. But as I’ve experienced more of what Jesus did, and my part in it, I’ve come to realise that I was included in it. So when Jesus died, I died. When he was buried, I was buried. When he was resurrected, I was resurrected.
I’m the same as the whole of mankind in receiving what happened at the resurrection. It wasn’t just an individual thing for people who would, in the future, accept what Jesus did on the cross and through the resurrection. It happened as Jesus was resurrected.
I am going to prepare a place for you
He promised to come back and bring people into a resurrection relationship with the Father. I think John 14 is the best illustration of that—Jesus promising that he was going to go away, go to the cross, come back and take them to be where he was. “Where I am,” he said, “you may be also.” Now, “I am” was not a physical location. It wasn’t a spiritual location either—it was a relational position.
In John 14, Jesus talks about “I am in the Father and the Father’s in me.” But people have taken John 14 to mean, “Oh, Jesus has gone into heaven, and one day he’s going to build a house there for us, so we can all go and live in that house—in our house in heaven. He’s going to come back and take us there.”
That teaching has placed what Jesus did in the resurrection solely in the future, after we die, when we get physically resurrected. So we expect death and resurrection in the future, based on what Jesus did. But actually, that’s a completely wrong understanding of that passage. The passage is really talking about the union of relationship we have within “I am.”
It was a union thing, because John 14:1–3 is a marriage statement. In the Hebrew marriage tradition, when a couple got betrothed, the bridegroom would go and build a house—usually attached to his father’s house. He would say, “I am going away to prepare a place for you,” to his future wife. And she would say, “When are you coming again to take me to yourself?”
Now, this was a well-known understanding at the time. But we often read John 14 in today’s culture and completely misunderstand it. Jesus was basically saying, “I am going to the cross, and through the cross I’m going to prepare you to be a place where I can dwell—where you will be in ‘I am’ just as I am in ‘I am’ with the Father.”
On that day
Later on in the chapter, he says, “On that day you will know that I am in you, and you are in me, and we’re in the Father.” On that day—that was the resurrection day. He literally came back, went into heaven, received the kingdom and then came to his disciples and breathed onto them, saying, “Receive the Holy Spirit.”
That was the moment where the disciples became representatives of the new man in Christ. Whereas Adam had been the representative of the old man when God breathed into him — everyone died in Adam. When Adam walked into death, everyone died in him. But everyone has been made alive in Christ.
So the whole of mankind was represented in Christ when he went into death, into the grave, and was resurrected. And when Jesus breathed onto the disciples, they experienced the Holy Spirit filling them, or coming into them. The whole of mankind had the Spirit come into them, but they didn’t know—because they didn’t have the relationship with Jesus or the Spirit that the disciples had.
The disciples already had a relational connection, which became very different, because God came to dwell in them. But God came to dwell in all mankind. Most of mankind has not come into a knowledge or experience of that, even though it’s true. But God is at work in everybody to reveal that truth.
Resurrection applies to everyone
So the power of the resurrection over physical death applies to everyone. If we embrace what Jesus did and partake of it, then we also don’t need to die. Jesus basically said, “If you eat my flesh and drink my blood”—in other words, if you partake of me—then you won’t die.
Immortality is a consequence of embracing the power of the resurrection. Jesus overcame death, and we were in him overcoming death. Now, to start with, you could say that was spiritual death, but it didn’t stay spiritual. Jesus’s death wasn’t just spiritual—his body died. That meant that when his body was resurrected, it was the firstfruits of our resurrection.
The teaching of the church over the last thousand or so years has lessened what Jesus said and made the power of the resurrection only really about salvation. It hasn’t applied it to wholeness, health or immortality. So the thinking has become: “Well, I get spiritual life. But I’m going to die again, and I’ll go to heaven, where the resurrection will take place for me.”
Whereas actually, it is designed to take place now. Jesus being transfigured before he went to the cross was an illustration of that—that we are to be transfigured and become who God intended us to be—as light, if you like, as God is light.

Another wrong interpretation of the Bible paints the picture of a God who is angry, full of wrath, and ready to torment and punish. But unconditional love does not fail or give up. It is faithful, persistent, and wins in the end. So, God has no reason to be angry. People often struggle with this concept, but the Bible clearly says that Jesus came to take away the sins of the world—in other words, our lost identity. He also nailed every accusation against us to the cross. They were defeated and finished. It also says that God was in Christ, in 2 Corinthians 5:19, reconciling the world to himself, not counting their sins against them—not counting their trespasses against them. So, if there’s nothing to hold against anyone, why would God be angry, and what wrath would he have to punish anyone with? He wouldn’t. He doesn’t. He hasn’t. Love keeps no record of wrongs.
Romans 5:8 in the NIV says: “But God demonstrates his own love toward us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” Which is absolutely true. Even when we were in our lost identity, Jesus died for us. He didn’t wait for us to recover our identity, sort ourselves out or be good enough. He died for us—as us. We died with him while we were still in that lost state. Then verse 9 says: “Much more then, having now been justified by his blood, we shall be saved from the wrath of God through him.”
So this is saying, quite correctly, that we’ve been justified by his blood… but how much more shall we be saved from God’s wrath through him? Jesus came to save us from his Father’s wrath? No. That isn’t the truth. In fact, this verse does not say that. If you look at the original Greek, it does not say we are saved from God’s wrath.
So what is the wrath we’ve been saved from?
Not God’s! Does God store up his wrath to pour out on his children? Absolutely not—because he has no wrath to pour out. So does “the wrath” here have a different meaning? Because it’s talking about the wrath—a very specific wrath. Does it come from another source? Yes—and we’re going to look at what it is.
(A clue to this is found in who Jesus says comes to rob, kill and destroy. The thief. The accuser. The devil. And who is it that desires to give us abundant life? Jesus—the Good Shepherd. That comes from John 10:10.)
Romans 5:9 does not actually mention anything about God’s wrath. In fact, there are two Bible versions that include the phrase “wrath of God”, but put of God in italics, admitting that it was not in the original Greek: it was added to help the reader understand (or so the translator thought) but it has actually created a deception. They assumed it meant God’s wrath, since they didn’t know the love of God. They assumed that’s what it meant—but it wasn’t there at all.
For example, the NASB says: “Much more then, having now been justified by his blood, we shall be saved from the wrath of God through him.” But “of God” is in italics—because it’s not in the original. It was added. The NTE doesn’t put it in italics. It says: “Much more, because we’ve now been declared righteous by his blood, we shall be saved through him from God’s wrath.” But it does put a note: “Greek: the wrath (referring to God’s wrath as in verse 10).” So, what does verse 10 actually say?
For if, while we were enemies, we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son, how much more, since we have been reconciled, shall we be saved by his life? (Romans 5:10).
Where does it mention “God’s wrath” there? We needed to be reconciled to God—God did not need to be reconciled to us. He has never, ever turned from us. It’s we who turned from him. It was our wrath that God in Christ endured—not God’s wrath waiting to crush us. Because God has no wrath and no desire to crush anyone. He is a loving, restoring God.
So what is the correct translation?
Well, in this case, the King James Version actually gets it right. It says: “Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.” It doesn’t add “God’s”—just “wrath”. The Young’s Literal Translation says: “Much more, then, having been declared righteous now in his blood, we shall be saved through him from the wrath.” That’s what it actually says.
If the wrath we’re saved from is not God’s, then whose is it?
Paul was using the Septuagint translation, which also included a book called The Wisdom of Solomon. That book was in all Christian Bibles until the 1500s, when it was removed from most. It’s still in some. The Wisdom of Solomon—which Paul would have known and read—gives us insight into the wrath, and whose wrath it is. In writing what he did, Paul would have known this verse:
So he overcame the destroyer, not with the strength of body nor force of arms, but with a subdued him that punished, alleging the oaths and covenants made with the fathers. For when the dead were now fallen down in heaps one upon another, standing between them, he stayed the wrath and diverted the way to the living. (Wisdom of Solomon 18:22-3).
In other words, this was describing what God was doing to the destroyer—the one who was punishing—so that the wrath would be stopped, and people wouldn’t be killed.
So what is “the wrath” that God’s servant overcomes? The wrath—another name for the destroyer—who, by this point, the Jews no longer associated with God, but with Satan. (Remember, they had previously had an undifferentiated view of God in which they thought ‘the destroyer’ was God even though Satan may have been doing the work.)
Jesus saves us—not from his loving Father—but is sent by the Father to save us from the wrath. The destroyer. The accuser. Satan. That has a totally different connotation.
Which translation should I trust?
Revealing these differences in translation—where some words have been mistranslated—can cause confusion. People often ask: “Which translation should I read? Which should I trust?”
The answer, really, is to trust the Good Shepherd—Jesus—the Way, the Truth, and the Life—who said we can hear his voice and follow him. Follow Jesus. Don’t follow your interpretation of what you think the Bible might say. Yes, the Holy Spirit can bring us revelation of truth. But it’s difficult when we’ve already been programmed to believe we know what the truth is. We’re all confirmationally biased, which means it’s really hard to be deconstructed.
For me, it was such a hard process for God to deconstruct my mind from the things I thought were true—things I had never really questioned. I had some struggles, but I hadn’t questioned deeply enough to seek the real answer. It took experiences of unconditional love to bring that change. I believe we can use unconditional love as the plumb line to discern what is true. The gospel is good news—not bad news. If we know the true good news, we’ll be free from the deceptions that misrepresent God, misrepresent us, and misrepresent how God treats and loves us.
An “unbiased translator” is an oxymoron. In reality, everyone is biased by something. The question is: are you biased by love or by theology? Take the Mirror Bible, for instance—translated by Francois du Toit. His bias is love. He sees God as a mirror of who we are. I don’t mind that bias. But I struggle with a bias that translates things through a belief that God is angry and will punish his children forever.
Your ability to judge a translation doesn’t come from your linguistic skills or academic credentials—some people have those and some don’t. It comes from your personal knowledge of who Jesus is—the nature of God as revealed by him—and the gospel of unconditional love that he preached.
Unconditional love is the reality. God loves us in such an unconditional way that he continually seeks us out to reveal we have been saved from our lostness. In the YouTube video, The Gospel of the Chairs, by Brad Jersak, which I’d encourage everyone to watch, God never turns away from us—he always turns towards us—so that we can be restored to relationship.
God’s love is so unconditional that he designed us to be immortal—to have a continual, unbroken relationship with him. Death was the result of Adam—representing mankind—walking in independence, away from life. Jesus came to undo what Adam did, and undo the consequences brought by the enemy, including death—by taking back the keys of death and Hades, and revealing what was hidden—who we really are.

We have immortal life energy flowing within us through the Merkabah. As we saw last time, the Merkabah can help regenerate the soul and physical body. The energy it focuses aids healing as it interacts with a person’s subtle energy fields, such as the unified energy field, promoting healing by raising frequency. Much illness stems from low emotional and mental frequencies because thoughts of fear, worry and anxiety lower our frequency, making us more susceptible to sickness.
When we live in abundant health, we cultivate an energy field within us that raises our frequency, aligning us with the frequency of health. This is why focusing our thoughts and emotions on love, joy, peace and other positive states promotes health. Our entire immune system is designed to function optimally when we maintain an attitude of gratitude and thanksgiving. The Merkabah’s healing effects help prolong life, but true connection to the unified quantum field brings abundant life and immortality by drawing from God’s life force.
This process works as we focus our intentions and align our frequencies with love, joy and peace, bringing rest and accessing God’s abundant life energy within us. As explored last time, this is like drinking from the eternal source described in John 4 and John 7, where rivers of living water flow from the core of our being, symbolising spirit, life, energy and light. The living light energy flows to the Merkabah, where it is focused and distributed through our seven energy gates, providing limitless energy and abundant life. This process is also connected to the Sephiroth or the Tree of Life, whose geometric shape links to the energy gates and is designed to balance spirit and soul, bringing wholeness to our body.
It is not enough to function solely in the spirit without manifestation in the soul, nor to operate only in the soul without spiritual grounding. We need a harmonious balance of both, embodying the principle of ‘on earth as it is in heaven’, to bring our body into the wholeness experienced by our spirit and soul.
Merkabah truth revealed
The Father has revealed much truth about the Merkabah to me. When he first spoke to me about this, I didn’t fully understand, and to be honest, I still don’t grasp it all. However, I believe the truth of what he said and recognise it as a journey of discovery. As I share these insights, I invite you to embrace them and seek the Father for your own revelation.
The Merkabah has multiple levels of revelation and application that will unfold with the maturity of sonship. As we mature, we will gain a deeper understanding of and ability to function within this truth. For many, the first level is as the chariot of Ezekiel, which moves heavenly thrones dimensionally. You can read about this chariot—the word Merkabah—and how it moves things in the heavens.
Another level involves the application of energy linked to gateways, sometimes called chakras, and entering through portals as gateways. These are dimensions of revelation to be experienced. When the Father first spoke to me about these concepts, I wasn’t aware I could enter portals inwardly. While I was doing so, I didn’t understand how or that I could consciously choose to do it.
There is also a connection to the governmental positions within the Tree of Life and Metatron’s Cube in light. Initially, I didn’t understand this, prompting me to explore the Tree of Life and its relationship to my seven energy gates and the Merkabah within me. As I engaged with this revelation, the Father helped me understand that the Tree of Life is meant to unify spirit and soul with the body, bringing balance and wholeness.
Metatron’s Cube, which is central to the Merkabah’s sacred geometric shape, is a whole topic on its own. I have explored some aspects of it, but I know there is much more to learn. Using limitless grace energy to create and choose reality by drawing from the unified quantum field is not a common revelation but will become clearer with expanded consciousness.
When God first spoke to me about the unified quantum field, I had no idea what it meant. I didn’t understand how to choose reality from an energy field I couldn’t comprehend. However, the Father was teaching me to align with his heart, expanding my consciousness and shifting my perspective. Quantum physics suggests that the observer chooses reality, meaning reality responds to our observation or choice.
As I learned to apply this, I saw many instances where choosing a reality aligned with the Father’s heart produced what some might call miracles. In truth, it was simply aligning with his reality rather than my own or others’ expectations.
Activating our energy gates and fields through intentionality is crucial. We must deliberately choose and focus—this doesn’t happen randomly. Intentionality is the first step towards generating and directing energy as frequency. Everything is made up of energy and frequency, which we perceive as matter when it vibrates at certain frequencies.
The Father taught me that by activating my energy gates and the surrounding energy field, I could create a flow of living water from my innermost being. This flow extends out through the gateways of my body, creating energy fields where I can live in peace, rest, life and abundance. This is a state of frequency.
The sacred geometric image
Son, look deeper into the sacred geometric image and use this knowledge to increase your thought energy and creative ability. When the Father said this, I had no idea what he meant. I recognised the image, as I had it behind me in my previous office. It was a large picture on the wall, and I would often find myself looking into it, wondering what I was seeing, what it meant and how it related to me and my thoughts. The more I did this, the more the Father began to show me that this knowledge of dimensional connections and portals within the Merkabah meant I could use my thought energy in a creative way.
God then took me on a journey, showing me how I could operate within what he called the Cradle of Life, a place within his heart where I could come into resonant agreement with him. Through this process, I could become his voice, and as I creatively spoke, light would begin to respond to me. At the time, I didn’t understand any of this, but I set my heart on it. I pondered it, treasured it, and held it close, even though I had no real clue what it meant. This treasuring, this incubation—being pregnant with something—allowed it to grow. As it grew within me, it began to manifest and be birthed.
The unified quantum field can be the connection between your consciousness and creation through the Elementals, which are connected to the living light strings of our grace. I know that’s a lot to take in. I remember thinking: unified quantum field, consciousness, creation, Elementals, living light strings of grace… it was a lot to process.
Elementals
The Elementals are beings that God created for us to connect with creation. We often think of them as earth, fire, air and water, but there is also the ether, which is the field we can engage with. We can learn to interact with all of them, connecting with them so that life begins to outwork in our lives towards creation.
Son, engage the Elementals through the Merkabah by your consciousness, not just in physical locations. This way, you can connect to all dimensions or realities to restore hope. At the time, I was on a journey to engage things dimensionally, and this helped me realise there are Elementals in the dimensions as well as on earth.
You can connect to the elements, to the trees, the earth, the plants and all living things. I’ve done a lot of this over the past year, particularly through gardening. I’ve spent a lot of time looking after the garden, tending and cultivating the trees, growing things and connecting my conscious choices to them for favour, blessing and bounty. As a result, I’ve enjoyed bountiful harvests from what I’ve planted, as I’ve engaged at an Elemental level in a sentient way with creation and my thinking.
We have a large cherry tree at the front of the house. When I asked if we got cherries from it, the answer was, “Not many, and the blackbirds eat most of those.” So, I set my heart on engaging with the tree. I communed with it through the Elementals, connecting with it so I could communicate my desire for it to produce an abundance of cherries—enough for all our needs and more, enough for every good deed. I wanted enough for the neighbours, for the blackbirds and for us too.
That year, we had an amazing harvest of cherries. I believe we are designed to connect with creation, just as Adam and Eve were placed in the garden to tend and cultivate it, receiving a bounty through cooperation rather than exploitation. God wants to show us how to connect with creation in a positive way, broadcasting messages of hope and light.
Broadcast messages of hope
Son, the Merkabah can connect to dimensions and also broadcast intentional thought energy to the Babel-like towers you have seen. When the Tower of Babel existed on Earth, it served as a communication system to connect to the heavens and alter dimensions. However, what it broadcast was the negative frequency of our lost identity out to those dimensions.
As God opened those dimensions for me to visit and engage with, I encountered beings who wanted help. When I engaged with them, they wanted to know how they could find freedom and restoration. Why? Because they were feeling our energy—the energy of sonship—and were drawn to it. As they began to reach out, God opened the door to connect with them. When I visited several of their dimensional places, I saw Babel-like towers in each of them, created to connect to our dimensional reality for communication. I disrupted that communication, instead broadcasting into those dimensions the truth of God’s love, freedom and the true frequencies of our full identity as sons of God, counteracting the negative frequencies of our lost identity.
This has been a journey and a process to come into this type of reality. The Father said, ‘Son, use this ability to send love letters as messages of hope and freedom dimensionally.’ I’ve been doing this by engaging the Earth shield and the dimensions as part of who I am, to communicate God’s love not just on Earth but into every dimensional reality.
Frequency of the Oracles
Creation does not distinguish between the frequency of sound produced by the voice, a bowl or your mind as you think the sound. I had already experimented with crystal bowls and using their frequencies with intention, seeing healing and other results. The Father showed me—and will show all of us—that creation does not differentiate between those sounds. Whether we speak, produce a frequency and release an intention, or simply think, the frequency functions just like sound. At a quantum level, all frequency-generating methods have the same effect, where photonic strings of grace and living light respond to our sonship mandate.
I’ve learned this over time. Initially, I didn’t understand, but as I continued to pursue this, I began to learn how to use my mind and intention to focus my thinking and engage. The Father said, ‘Son, this is the function of oracles and legislators. Remember the four faces of God in regard to the order of Melchizedek: man, lion, ox, eagle—priest, king, oracle, legislator.’
When we are an oracle—when we speak from the heart of God with the voice of God—we can legislate, bringing that authority into manifestation. I don’t want to be an oracle of my own thoughts or a legislator of my own ideas. I want to resonate with the Father’s heart, with the oracles of his heart, with his passion, burning desire, overwhelming love, deep compassion and intense joy. Those are the oracles of his heart. I want to resonate with them, be motivated by them and embody them when I engage with creation, dimensions, fallen beings and people. My desire is to reflect the Father’s heart, resonating with it and carrying that essence of love.
The hearts of sons produce pentatonic energy fields, designed to generate the oracle frequencies to connect with creation. When I first heard this, I thought, ‘What on earth does that mean?’ I’m not a musician and had no understanding of pentatonic scales or pentatonic energy fields. But I treasured this revelation and pursued it. I researched and learned that pentatonic musical scales—five notes—are always harmonious.
For someone who isn’t a musician, this meant I could use five crystal bowls to play harmonious sounds. I then asked the Father, ‘What are the frequencies of the oracles of your heart? What are they, really?’ The Father showed me those frequencies. I played the five notes on my crystal bowls, recorded them and tuned them to match the frequencies he showed me. By doing this, I could play those notes with the power to bring about the manifestation of the oracles of his heart, demonstrating his passion, burning desire and the amazing ways he sees, thinks about and interacts with us.
Guard your heart
The Father continued,
This is why the pure of heart can see beyond and why life flows from the heart. The heart here is not the physical organ or the soul; it is the union of soul and spirit—our innermost being. When our hearts are pure, life flows freely.
“Son, this ability to choose and create reality has been limited to the unconscious and subconscious, which means we keep creating the realities in which we were birthed and experienced in the past. It has mostly been lost to the conscious mind, but it is being restored. We will soon be able to choose a different reality from the one we are programmed to live in by our past. If we continue to operate from the memory of past experiences, we will keep creating the same reality, repeating the same cycles over and over again. However, when we begin to choose new creation realities, we will find our ability restored, enabling us to live in a completely different dimensional way.
“A heart motivated by the selfishness of the do-it-yourself tree path, the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, will only create more chaos if it accesses these abilities. This is why we lost these bandwidth abilities in the past—because we were using them for our own gain, whether good or bad, which is ultimately selfish. Only as our hearts are renewed, restored, and made whole, and as we begin to operate from the heart of God, will the fullness of these abilities be released to us. That is why we need to mature.
“A pure, undivided heart resonating with love’s oracles is the only way to bring about restoration at a creational and dimensional level. Son, guard your heart and focus on developing the pentatonic frequencies and energy fields around your being and spheres.”
When he spoke of spheres, he meant areas of authority that I hold. I began to learn how to engage my heart with the pentatonic frequencies. I played them on the crystal bowls, engaging them intentionally and creating energy fields around me from what was developing. These energy fields were the oracles of the Father’s heart.
I want people around me to feel God’s passion for them—his burning desire for a relationship with them, his intense joy when he thinks of them, his deep compassion, and his overwhelming love.
Matthew 12:34: “For the mouth speaks out of that which fills the heart.” We need to ensure that what fills our hearts is good.
Matthew 5:8: “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.” We must look at our hearts, ensuring they are being restored, healed, and able to focus and choose the right intentions.
Proverbs 4:20: “My son, give attention to my words; incline your ear to my sayings. Do not let them depart from your sight; keep them in the midst of your heart.”
When we engage with the heart of the Father—face to face, heart to heart, mind to mind—when we engage the cradle of life and his thoughts and intentions, they begin to shape us. If we keep them within the heart as the centre of our motivation for what we think, feel, and do, they will bring life to those who find them and health to their whole body. This is a statement of immortality.
We need the reality and truth of God’s heart in our own hearts. That truth, when at the core of our being, will bring life and health.
“Watch over your heart with all diligence, for from it flow the springs of life.”
Immortal life flows from the core of our heart, which is the centre of the energy gates connected to the Merkabah, flowing with energy from Heaven through us. This energy is then dissipated into our body, energising us for life.
It is crucial to keep our heart—our spirit and soul—in union and oneness with the Father, Son, and Spirit, not separated, so that life can flow.
We need to focus and give attention to what God says and reveals—not just through the Bible but through his words to us directly. Jesus said, “My sheep will hear my voice, and they will follow me.” We must ensure we focus on what God has said to us.
Becoming godlike
As we mature and ascend higher, we will discover creative abilities far beyond what we could have ever imagined. We have the ability to live multi-dimensionally—not just in the angelic realms of heaven and earth—but to engage and travel dimensionally and through time. All of this is part of the eternal aspect of our life as sons of God—our immortal and eternal life.
We need to embrace this truth and come into the fullness of it. I encourage you to be open to a completely different framework of thinking, to be unlimited by time and space.
It is truly amazing. I remain in awe of the things God has spoken to me about. Even though I do not understand everything, I treasure these revelations and believe this reality will manifest as I fully embrace them. Ultimately, I believe we are all in a creative process. God is taking us Beyond Human, as Justin would say—restoring humanity from a lost identity back into mankind made in God’s creative image. We are becoming godlike, as sons of our heavenly Father, who is limitless. Our experiences of this truth will challenge and transform our view of life, our mindsets, and our belief systems.
So again, I just encourage you to close your eyes
And as you close your eyes
Just begin to relax
Get into a comfortable position
Into rest
Start focusing your thinking
On the Father
On the Son
On the Holy Spirit
Start to breathe very slowly
Breathe in
And breathe out very, very slowly
And as you’re breathing in
Consciously focus on breathing in
The unconditional love of the Father
Just breathe it in
Hold it
Let it energise you
Let it fill you
Let it flow through you
And breathe out
Breathe in unconditional love
So you can truly know who God is as love
Embrace it
Slowly dial everything down
To that place of rest
Focus on Father, Son and Spirit within you
Choose to open the gateways of your spirit, soul and body
As you choose, open that gateway of first love
To embrace Father, Son and Spirit
Consciously choose to drink from the source
Drink from the fountain
Drink, drawing from the life of Jesus
The Way, the Truth, the Life
Drink deeply into your innermost being
So that rivers of living water
Rivers of life
Rivers of light energy
Start to flow through the gateways
Of your spirit, soul and body
That river flows to your innermost being
To your core
The union of Father, Son and Spirit
And your body, soul and spirit
Where it meets within the Merkabah
And is focused
Let that river begin to focus
And build and energise
And then see that river flowing
To your seven energy gates
And begin to activate your crown
Activate each of those energy gates
Let it activate your heart
And let each one be energised with life
Feel—if you need insight
If you need to be able to see
In the realm of spiritual things—
That it would open that gateway
The eyes of your heart will be enlightened
If you need to speak wisdom, truth, love
That your voice gate will be activated with energy
causing you to speak life
Each of your gateways
Energised
With life
Abundance
And as you’re filled to capacity
Then see that river flowing
From your energy gates outwards
Creating fields of energy around you
Fields of life
That wherever you go
You have life in abundance
That your shadow can heal
That you can focus that energy to bring life
It will turn salt water fresh
You’re creating life around you
Flowing
Energising each of the spheres
You have been called and chosen to engage
Those spheres of family
Those spheres of work
Maybe those spheres of church
Those spheres of different aspects of your life
That you’re creating energy and life for those fields
Energising them
You can live in that bubble of energy
Of life and abundance
Just begin to rest in that energy
In that love
In that life
Filled and flowing
With amazing, living, flowing life energy
From the source of life
Who is light, and love, and spirit
Be filled

Be energised.

A mandate from God is relational. I used to ask God for a daily mandate, but He led me away from that approach and now I focus on spending time with Him heart to heart. When I align with His heart, I naturally sense His guidance throughout the day and in different situations. Knowing the Father’s heart gives me the freedom to express it creatively through who I am, so I no longer need to seek mandates directly; I engage with His heart and follow the desires He reveals.
You cannot force someone else to follow God’s will because God does not work that way. The key is creating an environment where people can discover God’s desire for themselves; it’s not about telling them what to do but encouraging them to find their own identity and path in God. Love is central to this—showing unconditional love helps people connect with God more easily.
Understanding God’s heart is the foundation of a mandate, which essentially grants permission to carry out His will. And a blueprint—a pattern for what God wants to build—may not arrive fully formed. Timing matters—just because God shows you something does not mean you should act on it immediately: preparation and personal growth are often necessary first.
Love is not passive; it sometimes requires speaking truth, even when that is difficult. I once helped two couples seeking to establish an ekklesia: they had received the same vision but interpreted it differently, and their misalignment ultimately meant they were unable to work together. Clear communication and alignment are essential at the beginning of any such joint venture: if you are working with others on a blueprint, you need a solid foundation based on relationship and shared understanding. If one group wants to build a car on a production line and another wants to craft it by hand, conflict is inevitable unless the approach is agreed upon from the start. Blueprints often involve multiple people because God rarely intends for us to work alone: though the spiritual side may be clear, the practical side can be complicated, because people are involved!
Unity, not uniformity
I tend to avoid elitist thinking. Ideas like being part of a special group or achieving a higher level of spirituality do not resonate with me. God loves us all equally and even if he has different roles for us, no one is more valuable than another. We are all on a journey, and different perspectives are best respected, not treated as inferior – so if a group starts excluding others based on beliefs or perceived superiority, that is a warning sign.
Love is the standard for measuring any group or movement. Love is unconditional, inclusive, and honours differences rather than creating divisions. A group focused on money or controlled by a dominating personality is another red flag. True leadership fosters accountability and allows people to express their beliefs without pressure to conform.
Even when we disagree
God’s desire is for unity, not uniformity. We are all part of one family, even if some people do not yet recognise it. Differences are to be valued, not erased: God’s design is multifaceted, and diversity reflects His nature. It is not about agreement on doctrines but about honouring relationship above needing to be right. True maturity means maintaining connection even when we disagree, because relationship matters far more than winning an argument or proving a point.
Of course, God can transform us when there are things in our lives that cause harm, but acceptance of one another is not dependent on agreeing with certain doctrines or creeds. God’s covenant with Abraham, fulfilled through Jesus, was to bless all families of the earth—not just some. We need to treat everyone as family, even when we disagree.
Too often, people are treated as enemies over minor disagreements. Most major doctrinal issues were settled long ago, yet divisions continue over relatively small matters. Unity is the priority. Jesus said the world would recognise His followers by their love for one another, not their theological accuracy. Again, unity does not mean uniformity—it means valuing relationship over being right.
Revelation of the Merkabah
On my journey, I learned about the functions of my spirit, soul and body, but they initially felt separate. Over time, I discovered that at the core of my being there are portals that connect me to where I am in the spirit and to where God is in the spirit. This connection transcends dimensions and physical locations—wherever I am, I am instantly connected because my spirit, soul and body are entangled together. This quantum entanglement means that even if there are dimensional shifts, there is no actual distance. I am one and whole wherever I am, never separated from God or creation.
This understanding unfolded through the revelation of the Merkabah—not as a literal ‘chariot’ (though that is an accurate translation of the word), but as a symbol of a state of being that carries me into different dimensions, identities and positions. It is no longer about travelling externally to reach heaven but realising that I am already connected within. And it is my state of consciousness, awareness and identity that fosters that connection, not anything external.
God’s kingdom is filling the earth
This ties into the restoration of all things. Our normal view of life is in linear time, but I view it rather as a continuum where God’s kingdom has been expanding and filling the earth since Jesus established it. Like leaven working through dough, you do not see the rise at first, but the process is underway. God has been at work throughout history, even if the fullness is only becoming visible now.
Sons of God have been revealed throughout history, often labelled ‘mystics’, and known to us or unknown. Their connection to creation has helped keep things steady, even when the world seemed chaotic. We are now at a point where the leaven has begun to rise more visibly, but this is a continuation, not a sudden breakthrough. The responsibility we have is to engage with this revelation and steward it faithfully.
Our role is to respond to creation’s groaning by bringing it into greater freedom. This requires change and transformation—a process guided by Jesus as our High Priest. The fire of God’s loving presence is not destructive but refining and purifying, transforming us and shaping us into maturity. There is nothing to fear from this fire; it is a blessing that brings us into wholeness and deeper alignment with God’s heart and purpose.

Our spirit itself is not damaged or impure; it is simply not connected. Our spirit has never truly been disconnected from God, but our soul has been. When we realise that God is within us and we open that first love gate in our spirit, we allow God to flow into us, engaging spirit, soul and body. This marks the start of a relational engagement with God, helping us find our true identity.
Most people derive their identity from what they do in the world or from past experiences, rather than from who God says they are. Our spirit already knows who we are because our origin has always been in God. The spirit existed before our body and soul; it pre-existed before coming into the body, but entered into a state of disconnection when it did.
Into union
God desires to reveal himself in a way that reconnects us, making us whole and bringing us into union with him—spirit, soul and body. When this union occurs, life flows like rivers of living water, an abundant life from the inside out. Instead of allowing external experiences to shape our inner life, our inner life should shape our external experience. This is God’s intention for us.
We can cultivate our spirit and increase our spiritual capacity by focusing on our spiritual senses rather than our physical and soul senses. This is a meditative practice—meditating on the spirit, its abilities and senses. As we do this, our spiritual senses grow and develop, allowing us to operate intuitively in the spirit rather than relying solely on cognitive processing.
Through practice
Some may believe that the spirit can be damaged, but I do not. I believe the spirit has never been damaged or occupied by anything other than God. However, this does not mean we automatically function through the spirit, as we often lack the training and understanding to do so. Hebrews teaches us that through practice, we can train our senses to discern. This applies to both our physical and soul senses, aligning them with our spiritual senses and prioritising spiritual understanding over cognitive processes.
When we engage in the spirit, it acts as a filter for external influences, offering insight before the soul interprets them. Our goal is to discern through the spirit rather than relying solely on memory, logic, reason or cognitive understanding. Developing this spiritual discernment takes time, as we have often lived with the soul as the dominant force in determining how we act, think and feel.
To shift this, we must cultivate a new framework of thinking and acting from our spiritual senses rather than allowing our physical and soul senses to take the lead. This process requires patience and practice, but the transformation is profound, enabling us to live in abundance and alignment with God’s purpose for us.

Romans 8:11 says, “If the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you—which he does, and in all mankind—he who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit who dwells in you.” It is the life of the Spirit within us that begins to energise our mortal bodies so that they operate in immortality. The Spirit gives life, light and energy to our mortal bodies. It is through that spiritual life—the breath of God, the rivers of living water that we drink, figuratively—that this flow of life moves within us. It just needs to be focused.
What do we do to put on immortality? How do we generate or focus the energy within us? There are gateways of our spirit, soul and body; we also have energy gates within us. So we need to learn to focus that flow of life energy—from heaven, from within us—to flow around us. There is a flow that comes from heaven into our spirit, into where our first love is. As we open our first love gate, it flows out into our spirit, fills our spirit, flows out into our soul, fills our soul, and then flows out to touch our body. We become one in spirit, soul and body, and this is where the energy is focused—in the point of union between spirit, soul and body. Jesus described this as our innermost being.
The river of living water is not literal H2O but a figurative illustration of life and energy. It helps us picture something real. It helped me, and I use that living water imagery in my own way to focus this life-giving flow. The river of living water becomes a well or a fountain of life within us, producing immortality. It is in us, but we need to engage it in us so it can be focused within us.
According to Jesus in John 4, living water flows in us when we drink and reconnect to the Spirit as the source of immortality. We need to drink—it is not enough to be passive: there has to be action on our part to embrace this. John 4:14 says, “Whoever drinks of the water that I will give him shall never thirst, but the water that I will give him will become in him a well of water springing up to eternal life.” In us is the source of eternal life and immortality. It is like a well or a fountain of water springing up.
Introducing the Merkabah
This fountain and river flow to the core of our being. At this core is something known as the Merkabah. Now, this is where it might get a bit strange for some people. If you look up ‘Merkabah’ online, you will find diagrams or pictures of sacred geometric shapes, which are a description of the matrix of energy focused within us. I did not fully understand the Merkabah when I first saw rivers flowing from my innermost being. It was not until I saw how they focused, how they were brought together and energised within our union, that I understood how this energy could then flow out from that focus and distribute through the seven energy gates or seals within us. This essentially gives us access to limitless energy, light and life.
As this river flows into the very core of our being, it is focused within the Merkabah. If the term ‘Merkabah’ feels uncomfortable or unclear, do not let it stop you. Just think of it as a flow of energy and life to where our spirit, soul and body are joined in union—our innermost being. It is then distributed as rivers of living water. However, we need to drink from this heavenly source. This source could be described as the River of Life, which flows through the Tree of Life. It all comes from God’s throne and from God himself.
I see my innermost being as the place where this energising union happens. Rivers of living water flow with energy. I find imagery helpful— so I see it figuratively as like a hydroelectric turbine. Imagine a large dam with a lake of water, which is then focused into small channels to drive a turbine. The energy of the flowing water produces electricity. Similarly, this river of life focuses in the Merkabah at our core, then distributes energy and life to our energy gates, forming a field of energy around us. A frequency of energy surrounds us because the rivers are meant to flow out, not just remain within, and so create a field of life around us. This energy field is what brought healing when Peter’s shadow healed people.
The living light energy within us concentrates in the Merkabah, giving us access to eternal life and enabling us to communicate with and access multi-dimensional realities through inner portals. These portals of energy within the Merkabah focus and allow us to travel and receive communication within our innermost being—in our ‘knower’.
Our consciousness expands as our mind is renewed to the truth of our immortality. We begin to believe the reality of what is true, and our ability to live from that state of being greatly increases. 1 Thessalonians 5:23 says, “Now may the God of peace himself sanctify you entirely, and may your spirit, soul and body be preserved complete, without blame, in the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ.” Being preserved means we are not destined to die. This verse offers powerful promises, but many English versions say “at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ,” which puts it off to the future. But the word parousia means ‘presence,’ not ‘coming.’ He is already present in us – and his presence within us will cause us to be entirely preserved, complete and without blame. The presence of life within us produces life and energy from the Spirit.
There are many systems within the physical body—blood, nervous, lymph, hormonal—so why not an energy system too? I believe it is completely logical that God created us with an energy system to create all the energy we need for ourselves and to engage with creation as sons when we learn to embrace it.
We are all connected to a quantum energy field. When I first went into heaven in 2010, God gave me a lesson on quantum physics—energy, string theory, vibration, frequency, harmony. It was mind-blowing. I did not understand it fully at the time, but it set me on a quest to understand what he was saying. There is a unified quantum field in which everything exists, providing the energy that fuels everything. This field contains vibrating strings of living light energy. I engage with these living light beings within a place called the Chamber of Creation. The Father showed me how these living light energy beings—which he also described as grace—function and how I could engage and embrace them.
Quantum Lumens: living light beings
When I was engaging in the Chamber of Creation, I was with a few others, including Justin Abraham, Nancy Coen, Lindy Strong and a few more. God said, ‘I want you to name those living light beings.’ I had no idea what to name them, but Nancy Coen came up with a fitting name: Quantum Lumens. I believe Quantum Lumens are the smallest particles that exist—the building blocks of all matter, vibrating strings of energy and light. We can engage with them and draw on that energy to produce in us all the energy we need, including immortality.
Sound and light are forms of energy on the same spectrum, with vast differences within that spectrum, but they are all electromagnetic energy, the creative spirit of life. Sound and light are used as biblical metaphors for living energy—rivers of living water, energy, abundant life. These vibrating strings are the voice of His power that energises and holds all things together.
Colossians 1:17 says, ‘He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together,’ referring to Jesus. Hebrews 1:3 adds, ‘He is the radiance of His glory, the exact representation of His nature, and upholds all things by the word of His power.’
All of this is connected. What scientists are discovering now is what the Bible has been trying to describe in non-scientific language. When you really look at it, it aligns remarkably well with quantum physics, string theory and related concepts about energy.
The grace of God, or vibrating strings of light energy, are the still-vibrating words that spoke creation into being. These energy strings, the smallest particles of energy, are the building blocks of all matter. When we speak with the authority of the voice of God as oracles, living light responds to us creatively. This is a process we can learn. How do we speak with the authority of God’s voice? God showed me a process where I embrace and engage His heart in a place He described as the Cradle of Life.
When I sit within His heart in the Cradle of Life, His thoughts, heart and intentions are revealed to me. I come into agreement and resonate with those thoughts and intentions. I literally become a frequency, a sound, a voice of God. As an oracle, I can speak creatively, and light responds to me, to form reality around me.
This energy field is often called Zero Point Energy. It is named this because technically, nothing should exist in a vacuum. When scientists created a vacuum and measured it, they found energy within it. When they froze it to absolute zero, where nothing should be moving and no energy should remain, they still detected energy—hence the term Zero Point Energy. This energy fuels the physical realm from a non-local quantum field. We can draw energy from this field and focus it in our innermost being. All matter, all energy particles—from atoms to nuclei and electrons—are constantly blinking in and out of this quantum or spiritual realm, this quantum field. They do so at an incredibly fast rate (at Planck’s constant, which is 12 thousand billionths of a second), so you are engaging in a realm and picking up energy that is designed to effectively mean that you have a limitless supply of energy. You’re never going to know that some of your cells are in that realm and then coming out of that realm energised — you’re not going to know it, other than God telling you it’s true.
Scientists say this energy is so powerful and limitless that a sugar-cube-sized amount of zero-point energy could power 400 billion galaxies. It does not take something the size of a single grain of sugar to power our galaxy. This immense power is part of God’s creation, enabling the universe to operate within this field. Some researchers are working on harnessing zero-point energy for space travel, engines and other technologies. You may have seen it referenced in science fiction, like in the Stargate series, where it powered gateways and wormholes to travel between planets and dimensions. I believe there is truth in this, as I have experienced travelling through such portals.
We have access to this power source, but how do we open the seals or portals to engage this energy? How do we activate and release this limitless energy?
The Merkabah is figuratively described in the Bible as a chariot, giving us access to open these portals. We all have gateways within our spirit, soul and body. There are energy gates within us, gateways between heaven and earth, portals to under the earth and gateways between dimensions. There are north, south, east and west gates, everlasting doors or gateways from heaven into the earth. We can access all these gateways, but we have to learn how to navigate and use them correctly, as improper use has caused problems on earth.
The sons of God are beginning to administrate these gateways—between the solar system, planets, dimensions—to bring about the restoration of all things and creation’s freedom.
Our body, heart and consciousness all produce energy fields. The heart’s energy field extends around 10 feet (3 metres), while the brain’s field is only around 10 to 12 inches (30cm). Our body also emits energy fields and frequencies. These fields interact with the quantum unified energy field throughout creation.
By learning to activate our senses, we can engage with creation, feel and sense it. We can access portals or intersections between dimensions, be energised and travel through them. These are now being revealed and are part of what we are beginning to do as sons of God.
There are seven energy gateways within each of us, embedded in our physical being. Health and immortality come when these fields are balanced, vibrating at the correct frequency and energised. Portals or energy gates within us maintain this energy balance when they are open and flowing. This is why we need to embrace and learn how to focus living light—rivers of living water—to energise our whole being.
Exponential increase
Now, heaven and our consciousness operate on a logarithmic exponential increase scale, meaning an increase of 10 to the power of an exponent. This is not mere addition or multiplication but an exponential progression—far beyond simply 1 + 1 or 2 × 2.
The seven seals or gateways release exponential energy as they are activated from heaven, producing increasing amounts of energy. I have learned to dissipate this energy into a field around me to avoid being overwhelmed. These energy gates can be understood as follows:
Gate 1: 1 × 2 = 2
Gate 2: 2 × 2 = 4
Gate 3: 4 × 4 = 16
Gate 4: 16 × 16 = 256
Whilst this seems a modest increase, the progression accelerates significantly:
Gate 5: 256 × 256 = 65,536
Gate 6: 65,536 × 65,536 = 4,294,967,296
This is a tremendous leap. Imagine the energy unleashed when the seventh gate is fully activated, with 4 billion multiplied by 4 billion. The resulting number is so vast it has no standard name: 1.8447 × 10¹⁹. This represents an unimaginable and virtually limitless energy source.
As we activate and increase the energy within our core, this energy can be distributed throughout our being, providing all we need. Our consciousness also operates logarithmically. For instance, a consciousness level of 1,000 could represent the mind of Christ. In comparison, a lower consciousness level of 80 is minimal. Remarkably, just a few individuals operating at a consciousness level of 400 could equate to five billion individuals at a level of 80.
This concept aligns with the biblical idea that ‘one can put a thousand to flight; two, ten thousand’. It is an exponential principle, which is why agreement, union and unity are crucial. When we (spirit, soul and body) are joined to the Lord—Father, Son and Spirit—we become one spirit with him. Our consciousness and zero-point energy function logarithmically, leading to limitless creative energy, enabling us to live immortally.
The Merkabah is a sacred geometric shape, connected to concepts like Metatron’s Cube and the Tree of Life. Learning to activate the Merkabah practically allows God’s glory (the weight of his presence within us) and his light to flow from within us—through our spirit, soul and body gates—energising and activating all our energy gates. This ensures we always have the energy needed to accomplish all that we see the Father doing.
To activate this flow, I suggest you visualise opening the Gateway of First Love, allowing the river of life to flow as described in Ezekiel. The river, which flows from under the temple’s East Gate, deepens from ankle deep to knee deep, to waist deep, until it becomes a river that cannot be crossed—bringing life wherever it goes. As we are the temple of the Holy Spirit, God’s presence within us can flow as a river of living water, filling and energising us.
By opening this gate and embracing this life energy—love, joy and peace—the presence of the Father, Son and Spirit in us begins to flow like a river. We drink of it, partake in it, let it fill us and flow through us. This living spiritual energy then flows through our spirit, soul and body, activating energy gates and wheels within wheels—imagery associated with the spinning discs of the Merkabah. In some traditions, these internal gateways are also known as chakras—a Sanskrit term for ‘spinning discs of light energy’. This powerful flow of life force within the body energises the Merkabah, activating it like a hydroelectric turbine and distributing energy throughout our being, enabling us to live as sons of God.
I would just encourage you to close your eyes
Come to a place of rest
Where you begin to feel and sense
That you are loved
You’re accepted
You are approved of
He unconditionally loves you
Just begin to slow down your mind
Slow down, relax your body
Begin to breathe deeply
Slow down your breathing
You’re breathing in the unconditional love of God
Breathing in life
You’re being energised
Be still
Come to that place of stillness
Picture Jesus knocking on the door within you
Knocking on your first love gate
Open that door
And as you open that door
Beyond the door is a well and a fountain
And that water begins to flow
And you can drink
Drink living water
Drink, receive that energy
Drink it in, partake of it
Drink deeply
You’re engaging Father, Son and Spirit
And their life
Their abundant life
That river flows through you
A river of life
It’s flowing energy
Filling your spirit
Flowing through your spiritual gateways
Go with the flow
It’s gone beyond ankle deep, knee deep, waist deep
And it’s flowing
Bringing life wherever it goes
And you’re flowing with it
You’re just flowing with the stream
And it’s flowing through your spirit
Flowing through your soul
Touching your soul, your mind, your emotion, your will
Touching every part of you
Your imagination, your choice
And it’s beginning to engage together
In your innermost being
And it comes and flows where you are in union
Spirit, soul and body
With Father, Son and Spirit
In oneness
To that place where there is light
There is the Merkabah
There is this inner source
And it begins to activate
And it begins to energise
That energy generates rivers flowing
They flow to each of your seven energy gates
From top to bottom
And each gate is beginning to energise
To begin with, it’s energised partially
Giving you just enough energy that you can handle
But as you learn to generate and focus
And intentionally engage that flow
It can activate all of the spiritual connection you need
In the spirit
To be able to see and discern and engage
It can flow through your words
As living words of power
As an oracle
It can flow out from the different energy gates
From your heart
From each of those seven gates
Until you begin to feel activated
Draw on that immortal living energy
To touch the cells of your body
Just see those rivers flowing
Touching every cell
Touching every aspect of your physical being
Energising it
Bringing life
Bringing health
Bringing wholeness
And as that energy is forming an energy field
Let it flow around you
Let it create a field of living energy
Which will touch other people with life
Which will touch other people with healing and health and power
Live every day within an energy field of immortality
Of abundant life
Living light energy
Illuminating your mind
Activating every aspect of your being
Bringing you to that place now
Of oneness of wholeness of union
Embraced in the perichoresis of Father, Son and Spirit
Who are around you
You are in the circle of their life and light
Drawing from that unified field of energy
Drawing from life
Living abundantly
I encourage you, you can stay there, stay in that place. Practise training your senses so that you can discern. Practise opening that gate every day. Practise flowing, flowing with it.
It may start off ankle deep. You may produce a small amount of energy in you. But as you flow with it, as you learn to generate and practise it, to drink deeply, to be flowing; it will increase to knee deep. It will increase to waist deep. It will increase until it is flowing – and you are flowing, filled with living energy.
I did the same thing when I was on my journey. I found that whenever I was in a setting where I could just let go—usually in a worship setting or something similar at the time—I would notice my hand just drawing this sign. And I remember thinking, “What am I doing?” It felt a bit strange, but I just went with it because I didn’t really care what anyone else thought. I decided to just go with it.
Eventually, God began to show me that I was connecting with something, and He was unveiling an understanding of where I was in the beginning—the origin of my identity in Him—then bringing that into the present and outworking it in the present to create the future. It’s a continual pathway, drawing from where we are in relationship with God in the eternal now, living in intimacy with Him, and outworking that in the present, which then brings the future into place. What I do today becomes history, so today I can establish my future for tomorrow. Tomorrow is going to come, but what I do today can prepare for it out of what was in the eternal now—what was, what is, and what will be.
From doing to being
Sometimes people talk about the end and beginning of a circle, saying the end of one thing is always the beginning of another, which is true in a sense. But actually, God told me, “No, it’s not a circle; it’s this sign, the sign of my eternal covenant with man.” We were predestined to return to face-to-face relationship with Him, and that relationship enables us to outwork who we are in that state of being—what was, what is. I can just be.
I had always been very active because I’m quite an active person. I like to do things. So I was always focused on what I was doing today and how I was outworking things. It became a lot of activity. But God pulled me back from that place and showed me that it’s not about what I’m doing today—it’s about who I am today. My state of being has a greater impact than just what I do. Because what I do can sometimes come from a need, a desire, or something that isn’t necessarily from the heart of God. But if I’m flowing from what was and always is—because God is always in that eternal state—then I can simply be.
I started off doing and eventually became someone who could be. And that was really liberating because it meant I only needed to be in relationship with the Father, connected to His heart. That connection would inspire and motivate me to outwork His heart every day. But I didn’t have to keep asking, “What should I do today?” or “What needs to be done?” I just needed to be me. Because if I am me, that naturally creates space for the outworking of who I am in any situation. I could be more relaxed, at peace, at rest, without always wondering, “What should I be doing?” or “God, what are you doing?” It became a heart-to-heart relationship instead of a list of tasks.
In the beginning, God did give me lists because He met me where I was. But He didn’t leave me there. One day, He just stopped giving me anything to do and simply embraced me. And I remember struggling with that because I thought, “I’m not doing anything!” But He was showing me that being in that oneness was far more important than what I thought I needed to do. Being enabled a flow rather than duty, obligation, or what I thought I should be doing.
Just because I know how to do something doesn’t mean I need to do it.
Just because I know how to do something doesn’t mean I need to do it. And God demonstrated that to me over and over again. There were times when things were happening, and I’d go to God and ask, “Can I do something here?” And He’d say, “No, it’s all right. I’ve got it covered.” Someone else was doing something, and later on, I would find out who those people were. And that was great, because then I realised God was already at work in them. He didn’t need me, but if he did ask me to do something, that would be good. But I knew it would be coming out of a place where I was feeling his heart about it.
Connected in the spirit
And actually, sometimes feeling his heart about a situation but not having any sense that I should do something doesn’t mean I have to be passive, because I can still be encouraging others who God has assigned to do it. In a sense, when we’re connected in the spirit—because we’re all one in the spirit—then my encouragement can help somebody else feel secure in what they’re doing. So my heart wouldn’t be, “Oh, I wish I was doing that,” but rather, “How can I help encourage whoever is doing that so they are able to do it in the way God would want them to?”
My thoughts are always that way—I’m part of the whole, and God has many different ways of doing things. And of course, we can be doing things in the spirit without necessarily needing to know what we’re doing cognitively. I’m doing that all the time. That’s a state of being multi-dimensional, doing things in many different places without needing to be there in a conscious way, because my spirit is there. All our spirits are seated in heavenly places with Christ; we just haven’t mostly learned how to engage with it. But we’re there, so our spirit is active even if we’re not aware of what we’re doing. But we can become more aware as our soul and spirit begin to learn how to engage—until we don’t need to consciously engage because it’s just happening.
I can engage right now with whatever I might be doing in the spirit realm, but most of the time, I don’t need to, because that actually gives me more time to be here in a way that enables me to be at peace and at rest. It allows me to be a demonstration of that and to live it out with a more creational perspective. Before, I was so focused on what I was doing in the spirit realm that the earthly realm almost seemed secondary. But God really showed me the value of this realm—of living here and outworking who we are there, here: “on earth as it is in heaven“—in a way that made me much more connected to creation. I had more time to feel and sense what was going on around me, whereas before, my focus was so much on what I was doing in heaven that earthly things seemed less important. But actually, it’s creation that is waiting for the revealing of the sons of God, longing to be set free.
The groan of creation
There is an aspect of our sonship that is very much about the restoration of how God intended things to be here. And I found that having a more relaxed way of living with creation around me enabled me to tune into that more—to feel that groan and sense what was going on. Sometimes, even the earth groans at what we do to it and what we do to ourselves. You often see physical events happening in the world when significant things happen with people. There’s a kind of disturbance that we can bring peace into. We don’t want so-called natural disasters to follow human disasters—if we can bring peace so that the earth doesn’t react to what’s happening among people.
Reconcile the earth
There’s a lot going on in the world right now—many places where things are unfolding. I believe that, as sons of God, we have the ability to bring peace into these situations. Even if external peace isn’t happening between people, we can still reconcile the earth itself so that there isn’t a reaction from creation to what’s going on. I think that’s really important—that we are peacemakers. It would be great if we could bring peace into every environment; but at the very least we can bring peace between the earth, the creation we are part of, and anything negative that is going on.

All who dwell on the earth will worship him, whose names have not been written in the Book of Life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world. (Revelation 13:8 NKJV).
Before the foundation of the world, Jesus did not physically die; rather, he offered himself in identification with humanity, should we fall into a state of perceived separation from God. His self-offering was not about death itself but about fully embracing our condition so that we could ultimately live. The phrase “the Lamb slain before the foundation of the world” speaks to this identification. However, since God never desired sacrifices or offerings, he did not orchestrate Jesus’ death in a punitive sense. Instead, Jesus willingly gave himself so that we would always be restored.
Jesus came as a man to redefine our understanding of God. To accomplish this, he had to fully identify with us in the flesh, living as we do. By experiencing our humanity, he took on our death, not as a punishment from God but as an act of love. Humanity, not God, put Jesus to death. Yet, through his death, he overcame its power, bringing about the resurrection that includes us all. His coming was essential—not to appease divine wrath but to restore our lost identity and reunite us with the Father. While he did not die before the foundation of the world, he committed himself to our redemption from the very beginning, ensuring that no matter what, we would always be restored to relationship with God. Ephesians 1:4 (Mirror Bible) affirms this, stating that God’s plan has always been to restore us to face-to-face innocence.
So some are excluded?
However, you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. But if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Him. (Romans 8:9).
The passage in Romans 8:9 must be understood in context. It speaks of the mind and spirit and our choice to identify with either life in Christ or the law of sin and death. If our mindset remains focused on sin and death, we live as if we do not belong to Christ. When Jesus said, “Depart from me, I never knew you,” it was not about literal ignorance but covenantal relationship. If people continued living under the old covenant, refusing the relationship Jesus offered in the new, they remained unknown to him in that sense. The passage does not imply that some are excluded from Christ, but rather that those who think and live according to the old ways act as if they are outside of him. In reality, the Spirit is in all, breathed into humanity just as he was into the disciples, making all people part of the new creation. The issue is not whether we belong to him, but whether we recognise and live in that truth.
The issue is not whether we belong to him, but whether we recognise and live in that truth.
As Proverbs states, “As a man thinks in his heart, so is he.” If our thinking remains rooted in the law of sin and death, we experience separation—not because Christ is absent, but because our mindset does not align with the truth of who we are in him. We are not cut off from God; rather, we live as if we are. The passage emphasises the importance of shifting our perspective, rejecting the old covenant mindset, and embracing the truth of life in the Spirit. When we do, we experience the reality that Christ is in us, and we are fully his.
Lost?
Being lost does not mean being disowned. The parables of the lost sheep, the lost coin, and the prodigal son illustrate this truth. The lost sheep still belonged to the shepherd; the lost coin was still owned by the woman, though it was temporarily out of reach; and the prodigal son remained a son, even though he had distanced himself from his father. The problem was never one of ownership but of connection. Likewise, all people belong to Christ, but those who do not recognise their identity in him live as if they are lost. The solution is simply to awaken to the truth and return to that place of belonging.
The key is to remain in a place of rest—resting in the knowledge that there is no condemnation for those in Christ Jesus. We have been set free from the law of sin and death, and we are called to live in the fullness of that freedom. Rather than striving or struggling, we are invited to abide in this truth, resting in the life Christ has already secured for us.

The difficulty with what the Western world exported to Africa and beyond is that it was a mixture. We brought an evangelical gospel that wasn’t truly biblical, along with legalism, Victorian morality, and cultural traditions—things like formal Sunday attire and denominational structures. This mixture meant that alongside introducing people to Jesus, we also imposed religious systems and doctrines that were never part of the gospel.
Having spoken in Africa, I’ve personally apologised for this, recognising how British culture became entangled with the message of Christ, creating a rigid, legalistic system of religion. So I understand why people are challenging it—because I am too. I’ve been deconstructing my own beliefs, reassessing what I was taught, and recognising how much of it was shaped by religious programming rather than the truth.
But I’m not afraid of people questioning, because Jesus is the truth. He is the light, and he reveals himself. He has made himself known to people in places untouched by Western Christianity, even where his name was never spoken. Many missionary stories recount tribes saying, “We know him. He has visited us.” This proves that encountering Jesus is not confined to any one culture’s presentation of the gospel.
Religious baggage
So if people throw off religious baggage, I don’t fear they will lose their way. Truth and light always reveal who God truly is. And it doesn’t matter whether Jesus is seen as Black, White, Middle Eastern, or any other representation. Paul himself said he became all things to all people, and Jesus does the same—meeting people in ways they can relate to. Dr. O, for example, speaks of encountering Jesus as a Black man, which makes perfect sense in his context. Christ identified with all of humanity, taking on every identity to redeem us all.
Ultimately, these are external matters. Our true identity isn’t in race, culture, or background—it’s in being sons of God. When we fully know who we are, those externals no longer define us. It’s not wrong to celebrate them, but they don’t determine our worth. Who we are is the person God created, shaped and formed in his vast thoughts. That identity frees us from comparison, superiority or inferiority—we simply are who God made us to be.
Truth that transcends
God is restoring lost identity. Religion—and any system that tries to shape identity—inevitably distorts it into its own image. We must be shaped in God’s image, not by man-made constructs. Many seek their destiny, wanting to understand God’s plan for their lives. But your destiny scroll is simple: it’s you. Knowing who you are allows you to live out your purpose in any situation. There’s not just one predetermined path—many paths align with God’s heart, as long as they flow from true identity.
People want a detailed list of what they should be doing, because they are afraid of getting it wrong. They think God will be angry or disappointed with them, but he never is. He loves us and wants us to know and walk in the truth, living in daily relationship with him. That’s where our purpose unfolds—simply being who we are as sons, in union with the Father.
So I’m not concerned about cultural shifts or temporary changes. God is shaking man-made systems—religious, political, and otherwise—so that people stop placing their trust in them. The only unshakable thing is his kingdom, his rule, which is a rule of love. Seeing from a spiritual reality—God’s perspective—means embracing truth that transcends human constructs. And that truth will always challenge the perspectives we previously held.
Summary of the remainder of the video
True identity
We often define ourselves by circumstances or achievements, but our true identity is found in him. Transformation isn’t about striving—it’s about being. As we embrace intimacy with the Father, he reshapes us into who we were always meant to be. His thoughts lift us above earthly limitations, aligning us with his truth.
Romans 12 warns against being pressed into the world’s mould—letting external opinions and circumstances shape us. Instead, we are called to transformation (metamorphosis), like a caterpillar becoming a butterfly. We are not meant to stay bound in the cocoon; we are meant to fly. We are called to live from our true identity, fully aligned in spirit, soul and body.
Transformation isn’t about striving but embracing the Father’s revelation of who we are. God gently reshapes our thinking, freeing us from past mindsets and religious distortions.
I don’t want to be shaped by a religious mould any more than I want to be shaped by a worldly mould – I want to be shaped by what God says and by what his intention was for me.
As his presence dwells in us, we manifest his love on earth. We were made to bring heaven to Earth, not shaped by the world or religion but by God’s original design. I don’t want to be shaped by a religious mould any more than I want to be shaped by a worldly mould – I want to be shaped by what God says and by what his intention was for me. When we live in intimacy with him, we reflect his heart and purpose in all we do.
No separation
Our identity is key—when we embrace it, we align with God’s original design, living in wholeness, free from sickness and limitation. Instead of striving to believe, we rest in heavenly truth, allowing it to transform our reality. True transformation comes from intimacy with God, from aligning with the Father’s heart, feeling what he feels, and acting from that place. Jesus fully embraced emotion—he laughed, cried, and was moved with compassion. We are called to do the same, not suppressing our feelings or allowing them to control us, but being guided by them as they flow in harmony with God’s love.
Oneness with God means there is no separation between his thoughts and ours. We don’t act independently but in complete union, embodying his love and reflecting his nature. As we embrace this reality, we become true ambassadors of his love, prioritising others above ourselves and living in the fullness of our divine identity.
Unconditional love
Loving unconditionally in this way is difficult for us because we are conditioned by our experience of relationships that come with expectations. God loves us unconditionally, allowing us to make choices, even wrong ones, without control or condemnation. He always seeks to bring good from our failures, never standing over us saying, “I told you so.” In human relationships, our love is tested when mistakes are made. Do we choose grace and understanding, or pride and the need to be right? True love prioritises relationship over being proven correct. The more we experience God’s love, the more we can reflect it—just as Jesus intended.
God seeks relationship
Sin is lost identity, not wrong behaviour. Religion emphasises behaviour, insisting that change is necessary to be accepted by God. As a result, many who don’t conform are excluded from our churches, not because they are unacceptable to God, but because they don’t fit denominational or cultural expectations. God requires nothing—he simply invites us to come as we are, and transformation follows in relationship with him.
Religion focuses on actions, but the deeper issue is separation from God. Adam and Eve chose independence, losing their sense of who they were. Ever since, humanity has struggled with shame and the illusion of separation, though God has never turned away.
God seeks relationship, not behaviour modification
God’s love invites us to return, not by fixing ourselves, but by embracing the identity he has already restored. Religion seeks to control through fear; but God seeks relationship, not behaviour modification. Living in our true identity frees us from sin-consciousness, and transforms how we live.

Jesus prepared his disciples for what was coming and the challenges they would face in the generation leading up to the final end of the Old Covenant. He warned them and prepared them for their sonship in the New Covenant, saying, “Beware the leaven of Herod and the Pharisees”—the political and religious spirit, or the mediatorial control and conformity that would try to influence them.
‘The slippery slope away from orthodoxy’
The Father began to speak to me about these things, challenging me. He said, “Do not worry. Do not be afraid. Trust that because we are in you, if you ask for something good—experiential truth or revelation—we will not allow deception or delusion.”
Now, why did the Father say that? Because the truth was, I was afraid to trust. He was trying to help me see that it was okay, that I wasn’t going down some wild path. I remember someone saying to me, “You’re on a slippery slope away from orthodoxy.” And I remember thinking at that moment, Yep, and I’m going to ski down that slope as fast as I can, because I did not want to be stuck in evangelical orthodoxy, which was not what the early church believed at all.

Going ‘beyond beyond’
Then the Father went on. He said, “Those who have been deceived were leaning to their own understanding and never learned to hear our voice or know our heart. What we could not reveal to those first disciples has been continually released over the centuries to those mystics who took the time to listen for our voice.”
You can all go ‘beyond beyond‘, to find and fulfil your destiny without fear. Don’t be held back by fear. Perfect love casts out fear. Let God, as perfect love, cast all fear out of you so you can walk into the future with excitement, with joy, and with peace—and not be afraid.
Walking with the Father will take you beyond your comfort zones to explore the dimensions of your position within the very fabric of creation. There is no limit. You are going to go beyond. There is no need to fear deception when you know the Father’s love.
Sonship and heavenly authority
Again, the Father said to me, “Son, a new day is dawning, where so many more of my children will truly know me as a loving Father. I am revealing myself to those who are willing to look and seek first of all. But I am relentless in my pursuit, and I will never stop.”
And I love that about God—his relentless pursuit of us in love. He will never stop. His love will never fail.
The Father went on, “There is nowhere I will not go. My love is unrelenting and unstoppable. There is nothing anyone can do to stop me from loving them. They put me on the cross, but I chose to forgive them and used their own rejection and punishment to facilitate their reconciliation. I created all things for relationship. I have always had relationship with all things, but the time is coming for all things to know me. I gave myself as an offering for all who have become lost and independent—from before the foundation and fall of all created things.
“I cannot and will not be changed by anything or anyone. I am that I am—Spirit, Love, and Light. My precepts, statutes and principles are the immovable foundation that cannot be shaken or moved. I am the same yesterday, today and forever. I am love’s purest expression, and my deepest desire is that all my children—past, present, and future—will choose to accept my love and know me, so they can truly know themselves.”
That is what God is saying today. That is what he wants us to embrace.
Standing in the realms of heaven
We need that personal, intimate relationship with him to experience all that his name unveils and to be transformed so we can know our true sonship identity. Our governmental position and authority will reveal where we are seated in heavenly places—if we just keep following.
Zechariah 3:7 says: “If you walk in my ways and perform my service, then you will both govern my house and be in charge of my courts, and I will grant you free access among these who are standing here.”
And they were standing in the realms of heaven, in the assemblies of God.
This describes our function as sons of God in heavenly places. But we need to know God as Father by personal experience if we are to mature as sons—to learn to rule his house, take charge of his courts, and stand in the assemblies and councils of God. That is our destiny as sons of God. But we must be prepared for this level of transformation so that we can embrace who we really are.
When we truly know we are accepted and loved, fear dissolves. We become free—to know and to be known. In this freedom, there is a fellowship and a sharing so honest, open and real that those involved dwell in one another. He dwells in us, and we dwell in him. There is union—without loss of individual identity—where hearts are shared, and we become one spirit when we are joined with him.
Summary of the remaining message of the video:
A New Season of Grace
Heaven’s cycles—judgment, justice, grace, mercy, rest—are shifting. Angelic orders assist in this transformation. As seasons change, our authority increases. The sons of God must arise, clearing the atmosphere to manifest heaven on earth. God is calling his sons to embrace their destiny.
I was led to re-energise the supernatural ‘blue light call’ from 2013 for sonship and heavenly authority, to which many have have already responded, engaging with their divine purpose.
Declarations of Sonship
Inspired by God’s decree, I spoke declarations that still vibrate with power.
Receive them, let them resonate, and rise to your calling.
Our Identity in God’s Name
Proverbs 18:10 says, “The name of the Lord is a strong tower; the righteous run into it and are safe.” Within the four faces of God, we are in the name of God, carrying His power of attorney; to be identified with the order of Melchizedek, identified with that name to govern, legislate and administrate in His name.
This is our call—to arise, embrace our destiny and step into the fullness of our true identity and origin as sons. I believe God is reaffirming this call today. Will you respond?
Activation – Atmosphere of Love
Close your eyes.
Be still.
Breathe in the Father’s love. Let it surround and fill you.
Step out, sink into his love, and meet him face to face.
Follow where he leads, without fear.
Stand in his name, in the four faces of God—
Man/Priest, Lion/King, Ox/Oracle, Eagle/Legislator.
See through his eyes.
Embrace your true sonship and authority.
Remain in this place of love and intimacy for as long as you want.
