 DIVINE INTELLIGENCE

"He who abides in me, and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit."  
John 15:5

Say aloud, this prayer, "I abide in the presence of God today. I am
receptive to God's Divine intelligence."

As we contemplate this spiritual truth that is contained in our prayer, we
ask ourselves the question: is this true about us?

Do we abide in the presence of God?

Are we quiet enough, patient enough, trusting enough to be receptive to
Divine intelligence?

These are questions that we alone can answer.

How do you abide in the presence of God? To spend time each day in prayer
and meditation brings us closer in thought to God, and makes us aware of
God's presence that is always with us. I invite you to spend 20 minutes,
this morning, and 20 minutes, tonight, sitting in the silence of prayer,
listening to God. Keeping your thoughts centered on God allows you to
draw on Divine intelligence into the very midst of problems. When you are
faced with making decisions, when you must choose your words, or the way
that you are to go, you go to God first. Quietly knowing the truth of
today's prayer brings inner peace. As you plant and nurture such positive
thoughts, you are open, perceptive, and obedient to God Spirit, and your
understanding of the truth is deepened.

Every day, we pray with people that have lost their way. For one reason
or another, they have gone a long time without prayer or without feeling a
connection to God. People need a connection to God as much as a lamp
needs a connection to the wall socket that provides the electricity that
allows it to come alive. Unplugged, the lamp does not live up to its
potential, and is certainly not demonstrating its purpose.

Human beings cannot do it alone. Every day, I remind myself that God is
doing the work - not Chris Chenoweth. If I think it is Chris Chenoweth
alone, it is mediocre at best, or if I am trying to do it alone - I fail.

I have a lot of good ideas in my life, but none of them have been my own. 
All the good ideas have been from God. And when I am wise enough, in
human mind, to follow those ideas, great things have happened.

God can make you a huge success if you will take the time to actively
listen. Sitting in quiet prayer is difficult for the human mind, because
we think that it is not working. We are addicted the busyness of life,
and yet life itself comes out of the stillness. To hear the still small
voice is to connect again to your source.

It has been said that prayer is mightier than the sword. Prayer is the
most powerful force that can be used by a human being on earth.

Divine intelligence, when used correctly, should always reassure you that
there is a way.

Should it seem that there is no way to meet some pressing need or problem,
through Divine intelligence you will be reassured that, with God, there is
a way. You may not see the way, but there is a way. In God, there is no
lack of anything. In God, there is no limitation. There is a way with
God for every need to be met. That way is revealed to you, today, as you
take time to receive the Divine ideas.

If you long for your circumstances to change, or for the conditions of
your life to improve -- with God, there is a way.

You attune yourself with God's perfect plan of good for your life. You
began where you are, in the circumstances in which you find yourself, to
change your thoughts and feelings, through active direct communication
with God.

Instead of looking to problems, you look for and praise the present good,
and you also have faith that with God, there is a way for new
opportunities to open to you. God can show you the way for your goals and
dreams to be reached.

Through Divine intelligence, you will be shown the way out of darkness or
unhappiness. The pathway of God's life is the pathway to freedom and the
pathway of happiness, as that pathway of unfolding God-good stretches out
before you. Through Divine intelligence, your eyes will be open to the
truth and you will see the way.
