“So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.”. Isaiah 55:11 KJV
Good morning Divine Ones! We are working with the 6th Commandment, “Thou shalt not kill.” Exodus 20:13. Our passage today speaks of our words accomplishing what we send them out to do. Let’s break it down! “Things happen around you and even to you but if you allow them to get under your skin it is because you have permitted them to happen within you. To have an enemy is to have enmity (active hatred or ill-will). Your feelings of enmity frustrate the flow of love. If we are angry with someone, no matter what they have done, we reap the effects in our minds, bodies and affairs.” (Metamortality). We go into kill mode when we feel threatened by someone or something. The threat can be real or imagined. What we must realize is It’s not the threat that causes problems, it’s our reaction to the threat that is the issue. We try to destroy them on some level but we cannot because it’s not the threat it is our mistaken belief. “Jesus said “a man’s enemies are those of his own household...” Matthew 10:36, in other words those of his own mind. Yes sometimes there are real threats but most of the time we’ve added some spice to the situation on our own. For example, when people do or say things that are not kind should we give them a piece of our minds (kill them) or should we use temperance? And by the way, all of the anger and bad feelings have to come through us first When there are differences of opinion should we shout our opinion louder (kill) or should we quietly allow the opinions of others to be heard? Any time we shoot scud missiles at someone we are shooting those same missiles at ourselves. Anytime we ignore the feelings and opinions of another we are killing their voice (or so we think). Remember that the thoughts we think and the words that we speak can be like bullets from a gun sometimes. They can hurt and maim, others as well as ourselves. “Thou shall not kill is both a mental and emotional and physical commandment. Nothing exterior to us can harm or hinder unless we give it entrance into our minds. Here it becomes destructive. If it happens in us it is due to our reaction to it.” (Breaking the Ten Commandments). So Divine Ones, the words that we speak do not return to us void. They accomplish what we send them to accomplish. They prosper in the thing that were sent them to do. Sooo the question is what are we trying to accomplish? Hmmmm? More tomorrow! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
