Biblical Cento Poetry
Cento is a Latin word that means "patchwork" in English, so Biblical Cento Poetry is made of a mosaic of different Bible verses, organized in a way that they can be understood together.
On Earth As In Heaven: Dual Citizenship
Christ said He was still in heaven, even though His physical body was on Earth, as He spoke this to Nicodemus. The implication is that, as we are in Christ, we Spiritually share in this dual citizenship.
John 3:12-13 AMPC
12 "If I have told you of things that happen right here on the earth and yet none of you believes Me, how can you believe if I tell you of heavenly things?
13 And yet no one has ever gone up to heaven, but there is One Who has come down from heaven—The Son of Man, Who is in heaven." — JesusThis passage contains profound Theological concept: The phrase "The Son of Man, Who is in heaven" points to Jesus' divine omnipresence and His unbroken communion with The Father — even while His physical body was walking the earth and speaking to Nicodemus, He also stayed fully in heaven.
When we look at what Jesus says—contrasting Himself with the rest of humanity—"no one has ever gone up to heaven, but there is One Who has come down"—it carries several major implications for others:
- Absolute Dependence On Divine Revelation
By stating that "no one has ever gone up to heaven," Jesus implies that humanity is naturally earth-bound. Humans, through their own intellect, philosophy, mysticism, or moral striving, can't climb to heaven to discover the mind of God or bring down heavenly truths.
- The Implication: Humanity is entirely dependent on a one-way bridge. As we can't naturally go up, truth comes down to us. Jesus is presenting Himself as the exclusive source of firsthand heavenly knowledge. If anyone wants to truly know God or understand "heavenly things," they can't look to human wisdom; they must look entirely to Christ.
- Believer's Identity Shift (Dual Citizenship)
While people can't naturally be in two places at once, The New Testament reveals a profound mystery for those who place their trust in Christ: believers are invited to share in this dual Spiritual reality. As Jesus is on earth, through His Spirit and Church Body—as He is in heaven—those who are "in Christ" get Spiritual dual citizenship.
- Ephesians 2:6 AMPC states that God has "raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus."
- Philippians 3:20 AMPC reminds believers that "our citizenship is in heaven."
- The Implication: For those who accept Jesus, our physical bodies remain on earth, but our hearts, position, security, identity and perspective are already with Him in heaven.
Jesus stated He was in heaven, to Nicodemus, as He was on earth. This implies that those who are in Christ Spiritually share dual citizenship with Him.

The Heart Behind SPARK: The Aaronic Blessing, COVID-19 Opportunity and Possessing Reality
The heart behind SPARK is The Aaronic Blessing, from The Bible's book of Numbers, quoted below, this song, born out of an opportunity I took during COVID-19 lockdowns, and possessing reality with The Holy Spirit, as promised in The Bible.
Numbers 6:24-26 NIV
24 "The Lord bless you and keep you;
25 The Lord make His face shine on you and be gracious to you;
26 The Lord turn His face toward you and give you peace."
From the Textus Receptus, the Greek word Panta, which is translated into the English phrase "all things", is the same in John 14:26, where Jesus talks about The Holy Spirit teaching the same, and Revelation 21:7, where it speaks of inheriting it all.
One possible English meaning of Panta is reality, which has been substituted in the verses here below.
John 14:26 AMPC
But The Comforter (Counselor, Helper, Intercessor, Advocate, Strengthener, Standby), The Holy Spirit, Whom The Father will send in My name, He will teach you (reality). And He will cause you to recall everything I have told you.
Revelation 21:7 AMPC
He who is victorious shall inherit (reality), and I will be God to him and he shall be My son.
1 Corinthians 6:17 AMPC
But the person who is united to The Lord becomes one spirit with Him.
Matthew 23:37 AMPC
O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, murdering the prophets and stoning those who are sent to you! How often would I have gathered your children together as a mother fowl gathers her brood under her wings, and you refused!
The COVID-19 lockdowns were for closeness with God, which began the process of me making SPARK.
1 Corinthians 1:25-29 AMPC
25 [This is] because the foolish thing [that has its source in] God is wiser than men, and the weak thing from God is stronger than men.
26 For consider your own call, brethren; not many [of you were considered to be] wise according to human estimates and standards, not many influential and powerful, not many of high and noble birth.
27 [No] for God selected (deliberately chose) what in the world is foolish to put the wise to shame, and what the world calls weak to put the strong to shame.
28 And God also selected (deliberately chose) what in the world is lowborn and insignificant and branded and treated with contempt, even the things that are nothing, that He might depose and bring to nothing the things that are,
29 So that no mortal man should [have pretense for glorying and] boast in the presence of God.
God uses those things and people which are considered worthless, useless or bad, so that no creature can boast in His presence.
1 Corinthians 1:25-29 AMPC
25 [This is] because the foolish thing [that has its source in] God is wiser than men, and the weak thing from God is stronger than men.
26 For consider your own call, brethren; not many wise according to human estimates and standards, not many influential and powerful, not many of high and noble birth.
27 [No] for God selected (deliberately chose) what in the world is foolish to put the wise to shame, and what the world calls weak to put the strong to shame.
28 And God also selected (deliberately chose) what in the world is lowborn and insignificant and branded and treated with contempt, even the things that are nothing, that He might depose and bring to nothing the things that are,
29 So that no mortal man should [have pretense for glorying and] boast in the presence of God.
So, taken together, these mean The Holy Spirit allows us to understand reality in a way that lets us also inherit, or grasp, and possess it, at the same time, to shame selfish pride, so none can boast before Him.The Tree of Life
Genesis 2:9 NIV
The Lord God made all kinds of trees grow out of the ground—trees that were pleasing to the eye and good for food. In the middle of the garden were the tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
Genesis 2:16-17 NIV
16 And The Lord God commanded the man, "You are free to eat from any tree in the garden;
17 but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for when you eat from it you will certainly die."
1 Corinthians 1:28-30 NIV
28 God chose the lowly things of this world and the despised things—and the things that are not—to nullify the things that are,
29 so that no one may boast before Him.
30 It is because of Him that you are in Christ Jesus, who has become for us wisdom from God—that is, our righteousness, holiness and redemption.
Hebrews 5:13-14 NIV
13 Anyone who lives on milk, being still an infant, is not acquainted with the teaching about righteousness.
14 But solid food is for the mature, who by constant use have trained themselves to distinguish good from evil.
Proverbs 13:12 NIV
Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but a longing fulfilled is a tree of life.
Romans 8:6 NIV
The mind governed by the (old nature) is death, but the mind governed by The Spirit is life and peace.
My longing for Heaven on Earth is fulfilled, and I hope you get to share in this, too.Heaven's Overflow
Heaven's Overflow
Heaven's light flows in each breath we take,
Aligning every thought, our hearts do awake.Deeply perceiving where Godly truth resides,
Scripture whispers softly, within it abides.In every glance, God's holy presence behold,
All timeless visions of timely gifts unfold.The Spirit moving through every symbol seen,
He guides us all to where we're meant to be.Quantized bliss does shine through each eye,
Holy Bible leads all to look toward the sky.In step, God's holy wisdom lighting the way,
Eternal peace of promised renewal every day.Rest inside of God's love, eternal and true,
In every place, His holy presence we pursue.Found strength within faith, a guiding star,
Inside Heaven's vision eyes overflowing are.Firstfruits
Proverbs 3:9-10 NIV
9 Honour The Lord with your wealth, with the firstfruits of all your crops;
10 then your barns will be filled to overflowing, and your vats will brim over with new wine.Malachi 3:10 AMP
"Bring all the tithes (the tenth) into the storehouse, so that there may be food in My house, and test Me now in this," says The Lord of Hosts, "if I will not open for you the windows of heaven and pour out for you [so great] a blessing until there is no more room to receive it."Give your best to God, and you won't have enough room for all the overflowing blessings, that the world can't understand or take, but all can enjoy.
Transprayer
Transprayer
Transprayer is inspired by Vadim Zeland's Reality Transurfing, or No Big Deal method, but adapted for prayer.
The steps are as follows:
- Decide on a goal — anything that lines up with God's heart of loving-kindness.
- Pray, out loud or internally, something like "Dear Dad, I'd like [goal(s)], but as long as I have you, it's no big deal."
- Within 24 hours, do 1 task that brings you closer to your prayed goal(s), keeping the same no big deal attitude toward it or them.
- Stop ruminating; let your attention move to other, constructive things. Repeat for a week.
This is how I got The Father's Heart revelation — only a few days after Transpraying for all people to be saved.
The Father's Heart
The Father's Heart
Luke 17:20-21 AMPC
20 Asked by the Pharisees when The Kingdom of God would come, He, Jesus, replied to them by saying, The Kingdom of God does not come with signs to be observed or with visible display,
21 Nor will people say, Look! Here! or, See, there! For behold, The Kingdom of God is within you and among you.Belief doesn't cause salvation — it opens the eyes to it, as Jesus told the Pharisees that they are already in Heaven, even though they were against, and so couldn't believe Him yet.
Do you see the implications for all creatures, even those who've died? They're always in Heaven.
Matthew 5:3 NIV
"Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is The Kingdom of Heaven." — JesusGod wishes that none perish, He already has His way, and everything depends entirely on Him who has done far exceeding above all that we could ever ask for or imagine.
He's a good good Father.
Romans 14:17 AMPC
Romans 14:17 AMPC
The Kingdom of God is not a matter of food and drink, but instead it is righteousness and peace and joy in The Holy Spirit.Zechariah 4:6 NIV
Zechariah 4:6 NIV
So he said to me, "This is the word of The Lord to Zerubbabel: 'Not by might nor by power, but by my Spirit,' says The Lord Almighty.Revelation 21:7 NKJV; Romans 8:32 NIV
Revelation 21:7 NKJV
He who overcomes shall inherit all things, and I will be his God and he shall be My son.Romans 8:32 NIV
He who did not spare His own Son, but gave Him up for us all—how will He not also, along with Him, graciously give us all things?Galatians 2:20 ESV; Colossians 3:3 NIV
Galatians 2:20 ESV
I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in The Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.Colossians 3:3 NIV
For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God.All In All
Ephesians 1:15-23 KJV
15 ...I also, after I heard of your faith in The Lord Jesus, and love unto all the saints,
16 Cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers;
17 That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, The Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him:
18 The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that you may know what is the hope of His calling, and what the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints,
19 And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power,
20 Which He wrought in Christ, when He raised Him from the dead, and set Him at His own right hand in the heavenly places,
21 Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come:
22 And has put all things under His feet, and gave Him to be the head over all things to the church,
23 Which is His body, the fulness of Him that fills all in all.Romans 14:17 AMPC
The Kingdom of God is not a matter of food and drink, but instead it is righteousness (that state which makes a person acceptable to God) and peace and joy *in* The Holy Spirit.2 Corinthians 10:5 NIV
We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.Identity

5 God decided in advance to adopt us into his own family by bringing us to Himself through Jesus Christ. This is what he wanted to do, and it gave him great pleasure.
6 So we praise God for the glorious grace he has poured out on us who belong to his dear Son.
7 He is so rich in kindness and grace that he purchased our freedom with the blood of his Son and forgave our sins.
8 He has showered his kindness on us, along with all wisdom and understanding.
9 God has now revealed to us his mysterious will regarding Christ - which is to fulfill his own good plan.
10 And this is the plan: At the right time he will bring everything together under the authority of Christ - everything in heaven and on earth.
11 Furthermore, because we are united with Christ, we have received an inheritance from God, for he chose us in advance, and he makes everything work out according to his plan.

God's ways are higher than the old nature's ways, and eternity is placed in the hearts of men, so they cannot tell what God has done from the beginning to the end, but these things are revealed by The Spirit, who reveals Jesus, The Beginning and The End.

Come As You Are To The Marriage Supper of The Lamb
Come As You Are To The Marriage Supper of The Lamb
Intro
I received the following from The Holy Spirit, one morning, in March of 2023, which is the fulfillment of what I wanted and prayed for the most.
Message
He, The Holy Spirit, is The Spirit and heart of God, contains all and feeds, fills and overflows us with His spiritual "milk" for the young and the "water of life" and "bread of life" for all, "strong meat" and "new wine" for the mature, then the sweet "fruit of The Spirit" for dessert, as we dine at "the marriage supper of The Lamb", Jesus. All are invited, already in God's heart of hearts, so "come up here" and see how you're "seated in heavenly places", at His "banqueting table." ☺
The following scriptures are found through keyword searching, I find them very encouraging, and I hope you do too ☺ If you are reading and wondering what it means, feel free to contact me, I'd be happy to try and explain.
1 Corinthians 2:11-13 TPT
After all, who can really see into a person's heart and know his hidden impulses except for that person's spirit? So it is with God. His thoughts and secrets are only fully understood by His Spirit, The Spirit of God. For we did not receive the spirit of this world system but The Spirit of God, so that we might come to understand and experience all that grace has lavished upon us. And we articulate these realities with the words imparted to us by The Spirit and not with the words taught by human wisdom. We join together Spirit-revealed truths with Spirit-revealed words.
The Holy Spirit is God's heart, He knows God's innermost thoughts, and we have him, so we can understand God's heart, too.
Acts 17:22-31 TPT
22 So Paul stood in the middle of the leadership council and said "Respected leaders of Athens, it is clear to me how extravagant you are in your worship of idols.
23 For as I walked your city, I was captivated by the many shrines and objects of your worship. I even found an inscription on one altar that read 'To the unknown God.' I have come to introduce to you this God whom you worship without even knowing anything about him.
24 The true God is The Creator of all things. He is the owner and Lord of the heavenly realm and the earthly realm, and he doesn't live in man-made temples.
25 He supplies life and breath and all things to every living being. He doesn't lack a thing that we mortals could supply him, for he has all things and everything he needs.
26 From one man, Adam, he made every man and woman and every race of humanity, and he spread us over all the earth. He sets the boundaries of people and nations, determining their appointed times in history.
27 He has done this so that every person would long for God, feel their way to him, and find him - for he is the God who is easy to discover!
28 It is through him that we live and function and have our identity; just as your own poets have said, 'Our lineage comes from him.'
29 Since our lineage can be traced back to God, how could we even think that the divine image could be compared to something made of gold, silver, or stone, sculpted by man's artwork and clever imagination?
30 In the past God tolerated our ignorance of these things, but now the time of deception has passed away. He commands us all to repent and turn to God.
31 For the appointed day has risen, in which he is going to judge the world in righteousness by the man he has designated. And the proof given to the world that God has chosen this man is this: he resurrected him from among the dead!"
We have a righteous identity in Christ, and God contains all.
Isaiah 28:9-12 AMPC
9 To whom will He teach knowledge? And whom will He make to understand the message? Those who are babies just weaned from the milk and taken from the breasts?
10 For it is: precept upon precept, precept upon precept, rule upon rule, rule upon rule; here a little, there a little.
11 No, but by men with stammering lips and another tongue will He speak to this people.
12 To these had said, This is the true rest that you shall give to the weary, and, This is the refreshing - yet they would not listen.
God uses those that normally have difficulty communicating to teach his way.
Revelation 7:17 AMPC
For The Lamb Who is in the midst of the throne will be their Shepherd, and He will guide them to the springs of the waters of life, and God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.
Revelation 21:6 AMPC
And He said to me, "It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To the thirsty, I will give water without price from the fountain (springs) of the water of Life."
John 6:35 AMPC
Jesus replied, "I am The Bread of Life. He who comes to Me will never be hungry, and he who believes in and cleaves to and trusts in and relies on Me will never thirst any more (at any time)."
Hebrews 5:14 TPT
But solid food is for the mature, whose spiritual senses perceive heavenly matters. And they have been adequately trained by what they've experienced to emerge with an understanding of the difference between what is truly excellent and what is evil and harmful.
True nourishment is found in relating with Jesus via his Holy Spirit.
Ezekiel 36:26 AMPC
A new heart will I give you and a new spirit will I put within you, and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh and give you a heart of flesh.
Matthew 9:16-17 AMPC
16 And no one puts a piece of cloth that has not been shrunk on an old garment, for that patch tears away from the garment and a worse rent (tear) is made.
17 Neither is new wine put in old wineskins; for if it is, the skins burst and are torn in pieces, and the wine is spilled and the skins are ruined. But new wine is put into fresh wineskins, and so both are preserved.
The new wine, or joy of The Holy Spirit, is put in new hearts, so both are preserved.
Acts 2:1-8 TPT
On the day Pentecost was being fulfilled, all the disciples were gathered in one place. Suddenly they heard the sound of a violent blast of wind rushing into the house from out of the heavenly realm. The roar of the wind was so overpowering it was all anyone could bear! Then all at once a pillar of fire appeared before their eyes. It separated into tongues of fire that engulfed each one of them. They were all filled and equipped with the Holy Spirit and were inspired to speak in tongues - empowered by The Spirit to speak in languages they had never learned! Now, at that time there were Jewish worshipers who had emigrated from many different lands to live in Jerusalem. When the people of the city heard the roaring sound, crowds came running to where it was coming from, stunned over what was happening, because each one could hear the disciples speaking in his or her own language. Bewildered, they said to one another, "Aren't these all Galileans? So how is it that we hear them speaking in our own languages?"
Acts 2:12-18 TPT
They all stood there, dumbfounded and astonished, saying to one another, "What is this phenomenon?" But others poked fun at them and said, "They're just drunk on new wine." Peter stood up with the eleven apostles and shouted to the crowd. "Listen carefully, my fellow Jews and residents of Jerusalem. You need to clearly understand what's happening here. These people are not drunk like you think they are, for it is only nine o'clock in the morning. This is the fulfillment of what was prophesied through the prophet Joel, for God says: 'This is what I will do in the last days - I will pour out my Spirit on everybody and cause your sons and daughters to prophesy, and your young men will see visions, and your old men will experience dreams from God. The Holy Spirit will come upon all my servants, men and women alike, and they will prophesy.'"
We are in the last days, ever since The Holy Spirit came down on Pentecost, when God poured out his spirit on all flesh.
Galatians 5:22-23 TPT
...The fruit produced by The Holy Spirit within you is divine love in all its varied expressions: joy that overflows, peace that subdues, patience that endures, kindness in action, a life full of virtue, faith that prevails, gentleness of heart, and strength of spirit. Never set the law above these qualities, for they are meant to be limitless.
Revelation 19:9 AMPC
Then said to me, Write this down: Blessed (happy, to be envied) are those who are summoned (invited, called) to the marriage supper of The Lamb. And he said to me, These are the true words (the genuine and exact declarations) of God.
Everyone is invited to this supper, and blessed.
Revelation 4:1 AMPC
After this I looked, and behold, a door standing open in heaven! And the first voice which I had heard addressing me like a war trumpet said, Come up here, and I will show you what must take place in the future.
Revelation 11:11-12 AMPC
11 But after three and a half days, by God's gift the breath of life again entered into them, and they rose up on their feet, and great dread and terror fell on those who watched them.
12 Then [the two witnesses] heard a strong voice from heaven calling to them, Come up here! And before the very eyes of their enemies, they ascended into heaven in a cloud.
Ephesians 2:4-9 AMPC
4 But God - so rich is He in His mercy! Because of and in order to satisfy the great and wonderful and intense love with which He loved us,
5 Even when we were dead (slain) by shortcomings and trespasses, He made us alive together in fellowship and in union with Christ; it is by grace (His favour and mercy which you did not deserve) that you are saved (delivered from judgment and made partakers of Christ's salvation).
6 And He raised us up together with Him and made us sit down together in the heavenly sphere in Christ Jesus (The Messiah, The Anointed One).
7 He did this that He might clearly demonstrate through the ages to come the immeasurable (limitless, surpassing) riches of His free grace (His unmerited favour) in kindness and goodness of heart toward us in Christ Jesus.
8 For it is by free grace (God's unmerited favour) that you are saved (delivered from judgment and made partakers of Christ's salvation) through faith. And this is not of yourselves, but it is the gift of God;
9 Not because of works, lest any man should boast.
Believers of Christ already ascended to God's level, because they are in Christ, who ascended.
Luke 14:12-24 AMPC
12 Jesus also said to the man who had invited Him, When you give a dinner or a supper, do not invite your friends or your brothers or your relatives or your wealthy neighbours, lest perhaps they also invite you in return, and so you are paid back.
13 But when you give a banquet or a reception, invite the poor, the disabled, the lame, and the blind.
14 Then you will be blessed (happy, fortunate, and to be envied), because they have no way of repaying you, and you will be recompensed at the resurrection of the just (upright).
15 When one of those who reclined with Him heard this, he said to Him, Blessed (happy, fortunate, and to be envied) is he who shall eat bread in The Kingdom of God!
16 But Jesus said to him, A man was once giving a great supper and invited many;
17 And at the hour for the supper he sent his servant to say to those who had been invited, Come, for all is now ready.
18 But they all alike began to make excuses and to beg off. The first said to him, I have bought a piece of land and have to go out and see it; I beg you, have me excused.
19 And another said, I have bought five yokes of oxen, and I am going to examine and put my approval on them; I beg you, have me excused.
20 And another said, I have married a wife, and because of this I am unable to come.
21 So the servant came and reported these to his master. Then the master of the house said in wrath to his servant, Go quickly into the great streets and the city's small streets and bring in here the poor and the disabled and the blind and the lame.
22 And the servant said, Sir, what you have commanded me to do has been done, and yet there is room.
23 Then the master said to the servant, Go out into the highways and hedges and urge and constrain [them] to yield and come in, so that my house may be filled.
24 For I tell you, not one of those who were invited shall taste my supper.
Invite the needy, because they know they need God.
Luke 10:38-42 MSG
38-40 As they continued their travel, Jesus entered a village. A woman by the name of Martha welcomed him and made him feel quite at home. She had a sister, Mary, who sat before The Master, hanging on every word he said. But Martha was pulled away by all she had to do in the kitchen. Later, she stepped in, interrupting them. "Master, don't you care that my sister has abandoned the kitchen to me? Tell her to lend me a hand."
41-42 The Master said, "Martha, dear Martha, you're fussing far too much and getting yourself worked up over nothing. One thing only is essential, and Mary has chosen it - it's the main course, and won't be taken from her."
If you're in a Holy Spirit relationship with Jesus, the main course, it will never be taken from you.
Hebrews 9:28 b NLT
...He was offered once and for all time as a sacrifice to take away the sins of many people. He will come again, not to deal with our sins, but to bring salvation to all who are eagerly waiting for him.
Jesus will visit those who eagerly wait for him, to bring salvation.
Revelation 11:15 TPT
Then the seventh angel sounded his trumpet, and a loud voice broke forth in heaven, saying: "The kingdom of the world has become The Kingdom of our God and of his Anointed One! He will reign supreme for an eternity of eternities!"
Romans 14:17 TPT, Paraphrased
For The Kingdom of God is not a matter of [physical] food and drink, but is in the realm of The Holy Spirit, filled with righteousness, peace, and joy.
The Kingdom of Heaven is The Holy Spirit and we enjoy the fruit of Him.
1 Samuel 3:21 AMPC
And The Lord continued to appear in Shiloh, for The Lord revealed Himself to Samuel in Shiloh through the word of The Lord.
Ecclesiastes 8:4 AMPC
For the word of a king is authority and power, and who can say to him, What are you doing?
Hebrews 1:3 TPT
The Son is the dazzling radiance of God's splendour, the exact expression of God's true nature - his mirror image! He holds the universe together and expands it by the mighty power of his spoken word. He accomplished for us the complete cleansing of sins and then took his seat on the highest throne at the right hand of the majestic One.
The Lord just powerfully appeared to you through Godsword.Rapturous Bliss

How To See God and Love
If you want to see God, look at kindness—someone holding a door, a quiet hug, a smile across the room. These are not accidents; they are glimpses of The Holy Spirit working through ordinary people. Scripture tells us that God made us from earth (Genesis 2:7 NIV), that love comes from God (1 John 4:7-8 NIV), and that The Kingdom of God is righteousness, peace and joy in God's heart, The Holy Spirit (Romans 14:17 NIV). When you notice these moments, you are witnessing Heaven on earth.
At Pentecost God poured out His Spirit on people from every nation (Acts 2 NIV). That outpouring meant God's heart was being given to humanity. Even those who haven't yet named Him can still feel that heart—an unexpected comfort, an act of mercy, a sudden peace. Paul writes about the hidden wisdom and illumination God gives (1 Corinthians 2 NIV; 2 Corinthians 4:6-7 NIV). Look for that light.
But be aware: the enemy is non-physical. He comes to steal the seed of The Word before it can grow (Matthew 13:18-23 NIV). Our task is simple and urgent: spread the seed and support its growth. Meet people with patience, encourage one another, gather together, and tend one another's hearts (Hebrews 10:23-25 NIV).
When we do this, love grows—quietly, powerfully, inevitably—making everything new, like an oak tree growing out of the dead stump of our old, sinful nature (Matthew 13:31-32 NIV). That is how God is seen. I cherish kindness and sometimes cry with joy when I notice or think on God's heart. 🙂
Love conquers all (1 Corinthians 13:7 NIV).This has been edited by ChatGPT for clarity and flow, but the scriptural references and their deep ideas and connections were given to me by The Holy Spirit.

Selected Biblical Cento Poetry Readings
Luke 17:20-21 AMPC
20 Asked by the Pharisees when The Kingdom of God would come, He, Jesus, replied to them by saying, "The Kingdom of God does not come with signs to be observed or with visible display,
21 Nor will people say, Look! Here! or, See, there! For behold, The Kingdom of God is within you and among you."
The Kingdom of Heaven is not physical.
Acts 2:1-17 AMPC
1 And when the day of Pentecost had fully come, they were all assembled together in one place,
2 When suddenly there came a sound from heaven like the rushing of a violent tempest blast, and it filled the whole house in which they were sitting.
3 And there appeared to them tongues resembling fire, which were separated and distributed and which settled on each one of them.
4 And they were all filled with The Holy Spirit and began to speak in other languages, as The Spirit kept giving them clear and loud expression.
5 Now there were then residing in Jerusalem Jews, devout and God-fearing men from every country under heaven.
6 And when this sound was heard, the multitude came together and they were astonished and bewildered, because each one heard them [the apostles] speaking in his own dialect.
7 And they were beside themselves with amazement, saying, Are not all these who are talking Galileans?
8 Then how is it that we hear, each of us, in our own dialect to which we were born?
9 Parthians and Medes and Elamites and inhabitants of Mesopotamia, Judea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia,
10 Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya about Cyrene, and the transient residents from Rome, both Jews and the proselytes,
11 Cretans and Arabians too—we all hear them speaking in our own native tongues the mighty works of God!
12 And all were beside themselves with amazement and were puzzled and bewildered, saying one to another, What can this mean?
13 But others made a joke of it and derisively said, They are simply drunk and full of sweet wine.
14 But Peter, standing with the eleven, raised his voice and addressed them: You Jews and all you residents of Jerusalem, let this be to you so that you will know and understand; listen closely to what I have to say.
15 For these men are not drunk, as you imagine, for it is the third hour (about 9:00 a.m.) of the day;
16 But this is what was spoken through the prophet Joel:
17 And it shall come to pass in the last days, God declares, that I will pour out of My Spirit upon all mankind, and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams.
The Spirit has been given to all humanity.
Psalm 139:7-12 AMPC
7 Where could I go from Your Spirit? Or where could I flee from Your presence?
8 If I ascend up into heaven, You are there; if I make my bed in Sheol (the place of the dead), behold, You are there.
9 If I take the wings of the morning or dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea,
10 Even there shall Your hand lead me, and Your right hand shall hold me.
11 If I say, Surely the darkness shall cover me and the night shall be light about me,
12 Even the darkness hides nothing from You, but the night shines as the day; the darkness and the light are both alike to You.
God's heart is everywhere.
John 3:1-16 AMPC
1 Now there was a certain man among the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler among the Jews,
2 Who came to Jesus at night and said to Him, Rabbi, we know and are certain that You have come from God a Teacher; for no one can do these signs that You do unless God is with him.
3 Jesus answered him, I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, that unless a person is born again, he cannot ever see The Kingdom of God.
4 Nicodemus said to Him, How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter his mother's womb again and be born?
5 Jesus answered, I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, unless a man is born of water and The Spirit, he cannot enter The Kingdom of God.
6 What is born of the flesh is flesh; and what is born of The Spirit is spirit.
7 Marvel not at My telling you, You must all be born anew.
8 The wind blows where it wills; and though you hear its sound, yet you neither know where it comes from nor where it is going. So it is with everyone who is born of The Spirit.
9 Nicodemus answered by asking, How can all this be possible?
10 Jesus replied, Are you the teacher of Israel, and yet do not know nor understand these things?
11 I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, We speak only of what we know; we have actually seen what we are testifying to. And still you do not receive our testimony.
12 If I have told you of things that happen right here on the earth and yet none of you believes Me, how can you believe if I tell you of heavenly things?
13 And yet no one has ever gone up to heaven, but there is One Who has come down from heaven—The Son of Man, Who is in heaven.
14 And just as Moses lifted up the serpent in the desert, so must The Son of Man be lifted up,
15 In order that everyone who believes in Him may not perish, but have eternal life and live forever!
16 For God so greatly loved and dearly prized the world that He gave up His only begotten Son, so that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.
The Kingdom of Heaven is not physically detectable.
Proverbs 16:32 AMPC
He who is slow to anger is better than the mighty, he who rules his spirit than he who takes a city.
God rules his own heart and Kingdom.
2 Corinthians 3:17 AMPC
Now The Lord is The Spirit, and where The Spirit of The Lord is, there is liberty (emancipation from bondage, freedom).
Jesus and The Spirit are one, so when The Spirit came down, it was also Christ returning.
Galatians 5:22-23 AMPC
22 But the fruit of The Holy Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,
23 Gentleness, self-control. Against such things there is no law.
Anyone feeling the fruit of The Spirit is experiencing Heaven on Earth.
Closing Question
Why should I water this message down, when there are those that benefit from the thoughtless, propaganda-echoed narrative that Heaven isn't on Earth?

Deflective Grace🥋
Intro
This is an internal adaptation of what Kevin Zadai and Creflo Dollar teach on dealing with evil influences. My version can be done silently, within the heart and mind.
Description- God views you with love - He believes the best of you.
- Negative possibilities, thoughts and/or emotions? They're not yours. They come from the enemy, who wants to put its misery onto, into and through you.
- When you feel something dark, accusing or tempting, recognize it: that's an evil spirit trying to get you to think, act and feel like it does - corrupt, hopeless, anxious and ashamed.
- You don't have to accept it. Like a boat stays afloat by keeping water out, you can stay above by keeping negativity out. Let those thoughts and feelings slide off you like water off a duck's back.
- Marcus Aurelius: If you are distressed by anything external, the pain is not due to the thing itself, but to your estimate of it; and this you have the power to revoke at any moment.
- 1 Corinthians 3:16 NIV: Don't you know that you yourselves are God's temple and that God's Spirit dwells in your midst?
- Revelation 21:27 AMPC: ...Nothing impure will ever enter [The New Jerusalem], nor anyone who does what is shameful or deceitful, but only those whose names are written in The Lamb's Book of Life.
- Romans 14:17 NIV: For The Kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of righteousness, peace and joy in The Holy Spirit.
- 1 Peter 2:9-10 NIV
- 9 ...You are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God's special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.
- 10 Once you were not a people, but now you are the people of God; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy.
- 1 Corinthians 2:14-16 NIV
- 14 The person without The Spirit does not accept the things that come from The Spirit of God but considers them foolishness, and cannot understand them because they are discerned only through The Spirit.
- 15 The person with The Spirit makes judgments about all things, but such a person is not subject to merely human judgments,
- 16 for, "Who has known the mind of The Lord so as to instruct him?" But we have the mind of Christ.
Conclusion
Believers are royalty and The Temple of God, in The New Jerusalem, in The Spirit, and so can remind themselves of this when tempted to be discouraged or make bad decisions. We have the mind of Christ and are royalty - reject all thinking, attitudes and temptations that aren't from Him - live out of your new and true identity.Gratitude + State Management
Because thoughts, emotions and body language form a feedback loop, meaning that each affects the other, you can use your thoughts and posture to change how you feel.
Simply practice being thankful for what you have, along with smiling with an open and relaxed body posture when you notice it closing in for no good reason, or when feeling low, and, over time, you will become more relaxed and positive by default.
For example, if you start to frown, bend or curl your body inward, close your limbs and/or feel sad, fearful, tense or angry without a good reason, or you want to improve your mood, simply consciously decide to do the opposite of that - think of something to be thankful for, smile, open your limbs and spread them out.
Once while on a bus, I coached someone in psychosis to relax to the point of falling asleep in 5 Minutes, who was previously unable to stop twitching - it's that powerful!
The more you practice this, the better you will feel emotionally and mentally.SPARK Message

Proverbs 9:1-12 AMPC
1 WISDOM HAS built her house; she has hewn out and set up her seven pillars.
2 She has killed her beasts, she has mixed her [spiritual] wine; she has also set her table. [Matt. 22:2-4.]
3 She has sent out her maids to cry from the highest places of the town:
4 Whoever is simple (easily led astray and wavering), let him turn in here! As for him who lacks understanding, [God's] Wisdom says to him,
5 Come, eat of my [spiritual] bread and drink of the [spiritual] wine which I have mixed. [Isa. 55:1; John 6:27.]
6 Leave off, simple ones [forsake the foolish and simpleminded] and live! And walk in the way of insight and understanding.
7 He who rebukes a despiser heaps upon himself abuse, and he who reproves a wicked man gets for himself bruises.
8 Reprove not a despiser, lest he hate you; reprove a wise man, and he will love you. [Ps. 141:5.]
9 Give instruction to a wise man and he will be yet wiser; teach a righteous man (one upright and in right standing with God) and he will increase in learning.
10 The reverent and worshipful fear (awe) of The Lord is the beginning (the chief and choice part) of Wisdom, and the knowledge of The Holy One is insight and understanding.
11 For by me [Wisdom from God] your days shall be multiplied, and the years of your life shall be increased.
12 If you are wise, you are wise for yourself; if you despise, you alone will bear it and pay the penalty.
God's wisdom is Spiritual food and drink.
Matthew 7:15-20 NLT
15 "Beware of false prophets who come disguised as harmless sheep but are really vicious wolves.
16 You can identify them by their fruit. Can you pick grapes from thornbushes, or figs from thistles?
17 A good tree produces good fruit, and a bad tree produces bad fruit.
18 A good tree can't produce bad fruit, and a bad tree can't produce good fruit.
19 So every tree that does not produce good fruit is chopped down and thrown into the fire.
20 Yes, just as you can identify a tree by its fruit, so you can identify people by theirs." — Jesus
James 3:17 NLT
But the wisdom from above is first of all pure. It is also peace loving, gentle at all times, and willing to yield to others. It is full of mercy and good fruit. It shows no favouritism and is always sincere.
Mark 4:30-32 NIV
30 Again he, Jesus, said, "What shall we say The Kingdom of God is like, or what parable shall we use to describe it?
31 It is like a mustard seed, which is the smallest of all seeds on earth.
32 Yet when planted, it grows and becomes the largest of all garden plants, with such big branches that the birds can perch in its shade."
Galatians 5:22-23 NLT
22 But The Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,
23 gentleness, and self-control. There is no law against these things!
Divine wisdom expresses the fruit of love.
Romans 6:4-5 AMPC
4 We were buried therefore with Him by the baptism into death, so that just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glorious of The Father, so we too might live and behave in newness of life.
5 For if we have become one with Him by sharing a death like His, we shall also be His resurrection.
When we believe in Jesus, we share in His death and resurrection, allowing us to live in a new way.
Colossians 3:1-4 AMPC
1 If then you have been raised with Christ, aim at and seek the [rich, eternal treasures] that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God.
2 And set your minds and keep them set on what is above, not on the things that are on the earth.
3 For you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God.
4 When Christ, Who is our life, appears, then you also will appear with Him in glory.
Look for good things in heaven where Jesus is, because our true life is found in Him.
Genesis 2:7 AMPC
Then The Lord God formed man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath or spirit of life, and man became a living being.
God breathed life into us, showing we are meant to live with His spirit.
1 Corinthians 12:27 AMPC
Now you are Christ's body and you are members of it, each part severally and distinct.
1 Corinthians 13:12 AMPC
For now we are looking in a mirror that gives only a dim (blurred) reflection, but then we shall see in reality and face to face! Now I know in part, but then I shall know and understand fully and clearly, even in the same manner as I have been fully and clearly known and understood.

Ephesians 2:5-6 AMPC
5 Even when we were dead (slain) by shortcomings and trespasses, He made us alive together in fellowship and in union with Christ; it is by grace that you are saved.
6 And He raised us up together with Him and made us sit down together in the heavenly sphere in Christ Jesus.
We make up Jesus' body, with each person having a special role to help others.
John 3:3-8 AMPC
3 Jesus answered him, I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, that unless a person is born again, he cannot ever see The Kingdom of God.

5 Jesus answered, I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, unless a man is born of water and The Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.
6 What is born of the flesh is flesh; and what is born of The Spirit is spirit.
7 Marvel not [do not be surprised, astonished] at My telling you, You must all be born anew.
8 The wind blows (breathes) where it wills; and though you hear its sound, yet you neither know where it comes from nor where it is going. So it is with everyone who is born of The Spirit.
We must be born again by God's spirit to enter His Kingdom.
1 Corinthians 6:17 AMPC
But the person who is united to The Lord becomes one spirit with Him.
2 Peter 1:3-4 AMPC
3 For His divine power has bestowed upon us all things that to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him Who called us by and to His own glory and excellence.
4 By means of these He has bestowed on us His precious and exceedingly great promises, so that through them you may escape from the moral decay that is in the world because of covetousness (lust and greed), and become sharers of the divine nature.
When joined with Jesus, we are one spirit with Him, participating in His nature.
John 11:25-26 AMPC
25 Jesus said to her, I am The Resurrection and The Life. Whoever believes in Me, although he may die, yet he shall live;
26 And whoever continues to live and believes in Me shall never die at all. Do you believe this?
Jesus is The Resurrection and The Life, whether believed or not.
John 17:20-23 AMPC
20 Neither for these alone do I pray, but also for all those who will ever come to believe in (trust in, cling to, rely on) Me through their word and teaching,
21 That they all may be one, as You, Father, are in Me and I in You, that they also may be one in Us, so that the world may believe and be convinced that You have sent Me.
22 I have given to them the glory and honour which You have given Me, that they may be one as We are one:
23 I in them and You in Me, in order that they may become one and perfectly united, that the world may know and recognize that You sent Me and that You have loved them as You have loved Me.
Revelation 21:1-5 AMPC
1 Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the former sky and the former earth had passed away, and there no longer existed any sea.
2 And I saw the holy city, the new Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God, all arrayed like a bride beautified and adorned for her husband;
3 Then I heard a mighty voice from the throne and I perceived its distinct words, saying, See! The abode of God is with men, and He will live (encamp, tent) among them; and they shall be His people, and God shall personally be with them and be their God.
4 God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; and death shall be no more, neither shall there be anguish (sorrow and mourning) nor grief nor pain any more, for the old conditions and the former order of things have passed away.
5 And He Who is seated on the throne said, See! I make all things new. Also He said, Record this, for these sayings are faithful (accurate, incorruptible, and trustworthy) and true (genuine).
Revelation 21:22 AMPC
I saw no temple in the city, for The Lord God Omnipotent and The Lamb (Jesus) are its temple.

25 For [Christ] must be King and reign until He has put all enemies under His feet.
Ephesians 1:17-23 AMPC
17 [For I always pray to] The God of our Lord Jesus Christ, The Father of glory, that He may grant you a spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him,
18 By having the eyes of your heart flooded with light, so that you can know and understand the hope to which He has called you, and how rich is His glorious inheritance in the saints,
19 And what is the immeasurable and unlimited and surpassing greatness of His power in and for us who believe, as demonstrated in the working of His mighty strength,
20 Which He exerted in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly [places],
21 Far above all rule and authority and power and dominion and every name that is named, not only in this age and in this world, but also in the age and the world which are to come.
22 And He has put all things under His feet and has appointed Him the universal and supreme Head of the church,
23 Which is His body, the fullness of Him Who fills all in all.

Move through each SPARK collapsible title slowly, then, whenever you think of, notice or recall what its title is, with a smile, hand on heart, music lifting you, inhaling for 4 Seconds with your nose, exhaling for 6 through your mouth, breathing like that throughout, feeling your feet or breath, recognizing stillness, let the verses under that title flow back into memory. Your heart already knows about this, if you're familiar with the Bible, as Jesus explained Heaven with everyday imagery. The key is understanding that this is bringing Heaven down to Earth and from your heart, into your mind.
Practice builds power: more joy, sharper recall, stronger flow.
This is how you see with The Spirit… how your world strengthens you… how you grasp everything without taking anything—only Heaven's riches—only Him.
Share these triggers, and you pull Heaven down for others too.
And nothing can steal this from you—because The Holy Spirit is the One firing the reminders, God's Word glowing inside your heart.

Ephesians 4:10-16 NIV
10 He who descended is the very one who ascended higher than all the heavens, in order to fill the whole universe.
11 So Christ himself gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the pastors and teachers,
12 to equip his people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up
13 until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of The Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ.
14 Then we will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of people in their deceitful scheming.
15 Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will grow to become in every respect the mature body of him who is the head, that is, Christ.

3 You are cleansed and pruned already, because of the word which I have given you.
4 Dwell in Me, and I will dwell in you. Just as no branch can bear fruit of itself without abiding in (being vitally united to) the vine, neither can you bear fruit unless you abide in Me.
5 I am the Vine; you are the branches. Whoever lives in Me and I in him bears much (abundant) fruit. However, apart from Me, you can do nothing.
6 If a person does not dwell in Me, he is thrown out like a branch, and withers; such branches are gathered up and thrown into the fire, and they are burned.
7 If you live in Me and My words remain in you and continue to live in your hearts, ask whatever you will, and it shall be done for you.
8 When you bear (produce) much fruit, My Father is honoured and glorified, and you show and prove yourselves to be true followers of Mine.
9 I have loved you, as The Father has loved Me; abide in My love.
10 If you keep My commandments, you will abide in My love and live on in it, just as I have obeyed My Father's commandments and live on in His love.
11 I have told you these things, that My joy and delight may be in you, and that your joy and gladness may be of full measure and complete and overflowing.

31 Therefore do not worry or be anxious (perpetually uneasy, distracted), saying, 'What are we going to eat?' or 'What are we going to drink?' or 'What are we going to wear?'
32 For the Gentiles eagerly seek all these things; for your heavenly Father knows that you need them.
33 But first and most importantly seek (aim at, strive after) The Kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be given to you also.
34 So do not worry about tomorrow; for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own." — Jesus

13 Therefore put on God's complete armour, that you may be able to resist and stand your ground on the evil day, and, having done all, to stand.
14 Stand therefore, having tightened the belt of truth around your loins and having put on the breastplate of integrity and of moral rectitude and right standing with God,

16 Lift up over all the shield of saving faith, upon which you can quench all the flaming missiles of the wicked.
17 And take the helmet of salvation and the sword that The Spirit wields, which is The Word of God.

23 Gentleness (meekness, humility), self-control (self-restraint, continence). Against such things there is no law.

Roads
Isaiah 35:8 AMPC

Matthew 13 AMPC
1 That same day Jesus went out of the house and was sitting beside the sea.
2 But such great crowds gathered about Him that He got into a boat and remained sitting there, while all the throng stood on the shore.
3 And He told them many things in parables (stories by way of illustration and comparison), saying, "A sower went out to sow.
4 And as he sowed, some seeds fell by the roadside, and the birds came and ate them up.
5 Other seeds fell on rocky ground, where they had not much soil; and at once they sprang up, because they had no depth of soil.
6 But when the sun rose, they were scorched, and because they had no root, they dried up and withered away.
7 Other seeds fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up and choked them out.
8 Other seeds fell on good soil, and yielded grain - some a hundred fold as much as was sown, some sixty fold as much, and some thirty.
9 He who has ears, let him be listening and let him consider and perceive and comprehend by hearing."
10 Then the disciples came to Him and said, "Why do You speak to them in parables?"
11 And He replied to them, "To you it has been given to know the secrets and mysteries of The Kingdom of heaven, but to them it has not been given.
12 For whoever has, to him will more be given and he will be furnished richly so that he will have abundance; but from him who has not, even what he has will be taken away.
13 This is the reason that I speak to them in parables: because having the power of seeing, they do not see; and having the power of hearing, they do not hear, nor do they grasp and understand.
14 In them indeed is the process of fulfillment of the prophecy of Isaiah, which says: 'You shall indeed hear and hear but never grasp and understand; and you shall indeed look and look but never see and perceive.
15 For this nation's heart has grown gross (fat and dull), and their ears heavy and difficult of hearing, and their eyes they have tightly closed, lest they see and perceive with their eyes, and hear and comprehend the sense with their ears, and grasp and understand with their heart, and turn and I should heal them.'
16 But blessed (happy, fortunate, and to be envied) are your eyes because they do see, and your ears because they do hear.
17 Truly I tell you, many prophets and righteous men yearned to see what you see, and did not see it, and to hear what you hear, and did not hear it.
18 Listen then to the parable of the sower:
19 While anyone is hearing The Word of The Kingdom and does not grasp and comprehend it, the evil one comes and snatches away what was sown in his heart. This is what was sown along the roadside.
20 As for what was sown on thin (rocky) soil, this is he who hears The Word and at once welcomes and accepts it with joy;
21 Yet it has no real root in him, but is temporary (inconstant, lasts but a little while); and when affliction or trouble or persecution comes on account of The Word, at once he is caused to stumble and he falls away.
22 As for what was sown among thorns, this is he who hears The Word, but the cares of the world and the pleasure and delight and glamour and deceitfulness of riches choke and suffocate The Word, and it yields no fruit.
23 As for what was sown on good soil, this is he who hears The Word and grasps and comprehends it; he indeed bears fruit and yields in one case a hundred fold as much as was sown, in another sixty fold as much, and in another thirty.
Genesis 2:7 AMPC
Then The Lord God formed man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath or spirit of life, and man became a living being.Clothing

If you put on Christ, is it Heaven on Earth, or Heaven on earth? God is the Armour of God, Jesus himself, protecting humans, who are made of earth.
John 15:1-2 AMPC
1 "I am the True Vine, and My Father is the Vinedresser.
2 Any branch in Me that does not bear fruit He cuts away (trims off, takes away); and He cleanses and repeatedly prunes every branch that continues to bear fruit, to make it bear more and richer and more excellent fruit." — Jesus
Galatians 5:1 AMPC
In freedom Christ has made us free; stand fast then, and do not be hampered and held ensnared and submit again to a yoke of slavery.
Galatians 5:22-23 AMPC
22 But the fruit of The [Holy] Spirit is love, joy (gladness), peace, patience (an even temper, forbearance), kindness, goodness (benevolence), faithfulness,
23 Gentleness (meekness, humility), self-control (self-restraint, continence). Against such things there is no law.
Matthew 7:15-20 AMPC
15 "Beware of false prophets, who come to you dressed as sheep, but inside they are devouring wolves.
16 You will fully recognize them by their fruits. Do people pick grapes from thorns, or figs from thistles?
17 Even so, every healthy (sound) tree bears good fruit, but the sickly (decaying, worthless) tree bears bad (worthless) fruit.
18 A good (healthy) tree cannot bear bad (worthless) fruit, nor can a bad (diseased) tree bear excellent fruit.
19 Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and cast into the fire.
20 Therefore, you will fully know them by their fruits." — Jesus
1 Peter 3:10-11 AMPC
10 For let him who wants to enjoy life and see good days keep his tongue free from evil and his lips from guile (treachery, deceit).
11 Let him turn away from wickedness and shun it, and let him do right. Let him search for peace (harmony; undisturbedness from fears, agitating passions, and moral conflicts) and seek it eagerly.
Psalm 34:14 AMPC
Depart from evil and do good; seek, inquire for, and crave peace and pursue (go after) it!

Colossians 3:12 AMPC
Clothe yourselves therefore, as God's own chosen ones (His own picked representatives), purified and holy and well-beloved tenderhearted pity and mercy, kind feeling, a lowly opinion of yourselves, gentle ways, [and] patience.
Ephesians 6:10-18 AMPC
10 In conclusion, be strong in The Lord.
11 Put on God's whole armour, that you may be able successfully to stand up against the strategies and the deceits of the devil.
12 For we are not wrestling with flesh and blood, but against the despotisms, against the powers, against the world rulers of this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly (supernatural) sphere.
13 Therefore put on God's complete armour, that you may be able to resist and stand your ground on the evil day, and, having done all, to stand.
14 Stand therefore, having tightened the belt of truth around your loins and having put on the breastplate of integrity and of moral rectitude and right standing with God,
15 And having shod your feet in preparation of the Gospel of peace.
16 Lift up over all the shield of saving faith, upon which you can quench all the flaming missiles of the wicked.
17 And take the helmet of salvation and the sword that The Spirit wields, which is The Word of God.
18 Pray at all times (on every occasion, in every season) in The Spirit, with all prayer and entreaty. To that end keep alert and watch with strong purpose and perseverance, interceding on behalf of all the saints (God's consecrated people).
Proverbs 1:20 AMPC
Wisdom cries aloud in the street, she raises her voice in the markets;

15 And saying, "The time is fulfilled (completed), and The Kingdom of God is at hand; repent (have a change of mind which issues in regret for past sins and in change of conduct for the better) and believe (trust in, rely on, and adhere to) the good news (the Gospel)."
Proverbs 1:23 AMPC
If you will turn (repent) and give heed to my reproof, behold, I [Wisdom] will pour out my spirit upon you, I will make my words known to you.
Psalm 91:4 NLT

Deuteronomy 11:18-21 KJV
18 Therefore shall you lay up these my words in your heart and in your soul, and bind them for a sign upon your hand, that they may be as bands between your eyes.
19 And you shall teach them your children, speaking of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, when you lie down, and when you rise up.
20 And you shall write them upon the door posts of your house, and upon your gates:
21 That your days may be multiplied, and the days of your children, in the land which The Lord swore unto your fathers to give them, as the days of heaven upon the earth.
Philippians 4:6-9 AMPC
6 Do not worry or have any anxiety about anything, but in every circumstance and in everything, by prayer and petition (definite requests), with thanksgiving, continue to make your wants known to God.
7 And God's peace which transcends all understanding shall garrison and mount guard over your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.
8 For the rest, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is worthy of reverence and is honourable and seemly, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely and lovable, whatever is kind and winsome and gracious, if there is any virtue and excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think on and weigh and take account of these things.
9 Practice what you have learned and received and heard and seen in me, and model your way of living on it, and the God of peace (of untroubled, undisturbed well-being) will be with you.Windows

"The eye is the lamp of your body. When your eye is clear. But when it is bad, your body also is full of darkness." — Jesus
Hebrews 12:1-2 AMP
1 Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, stripping off every unnecessary weight and the sin which so easily and cleverly entangles us, let us run with endurance and active persistence the race that is set before us,
2 focusing our eyes on Jesus, who is The Author and Perfecter of faith, who for the joy set before Him endured the cross, disregarding the shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
Malachi 3:10 AMP
"Bring all the tithes (the tenth) into the storehouse, so that there may be food in My house, and test Me now in this," says The Lord of Hosts, "if I will not open for you the windows of heaven and pour out for you [so great] a blessing until there is no more room to receive it."
Luke 8:11-15 AMPC
11 "Now the meaning of the parable is this: The seed is The Word of God.
12 Those along the travelled road are the people who have heard; then the devil comes and carries away the message out of their hearts, that they may not believe (acknowledge Me as their Savior and devote themselves to Me) and be saved.
13 And those upon the rock who, when they hear, receive and welcome it with joy; but these have no root. They believe for a while, and in time of trial and temptation fall away (withdraw and stand aloof).
14 And as for what fell among the thorns, these are who hear, but as they go on their way they are choked and suffocated with the anxieties and cares and riches and pleasures of life, and their fruit does not ripen (come to maturity and perfection)
15 But as for that [seed] in the good soil, these are who, hearing The Word, hold it fast in a just (noble, virtuous) and worthy heart, and steadily bring forth fruit with patience." — JesusDone

Intro
God's ways are higher than the old nature's ways, and eternity is placed in the hearts of men, so they cannot tell what God has done from the beginning to the end, but these things are revealed by The Spirit, who reveals Jesus, The Beginning and The End.
To show the ideas about Heaven that I was taught by The Holy Spirit are true, I've included the results of a Bible study, using the NIV and Strong's Concordance, below.
Luke 4:21 AMPC
And He began to speak to them: "Today this Scripture has been fulfilled in your hearing and in your presence."
Here, Jesus confirms that He is the fulfillment of the prophecy found in Isaiah 61:1-2, which speaks of the coming of The Messiah to bring good news to the poor and proclaim the year of The Lord's favour.
John 19:30 AMPC
When Jesus received the sour wine, He said, "It is finished!" And He bowed His head and gave up His spirit.
These words of Jesus on the cross signify the completion of His mission on earth, which was to atone for the sins of humanity through His sacrifice.
Colossians 1:19-20 AMPC
19 For it has pleased [The Father] that all the divine fullness (the sum total of the divine perfection, powers, and attributes) should dwell in Him permanently.
20 And God purposed that through (by the service, the intervention of) Him all things should be completely reconciled back to Himself, whether on earth or in heaven, as through Him, made peace by means of the blood of His cross.
These verses emphasize that Jesus, The Son of God, is the only means by which all things were reconciled back to God, both on earth and in heaven.
Hebrews 1:1-2 AMPC
1 In many separate revelations and in different ways God spoke of old to forefathers in and by the prophets,
2 in the last of these days He has spoken to us in Son, Whom He appointed Heir and lawful Owner of all things, also by and through Whom He created the worlds and the reaches of space and the ages of time.
These verses confirm that Jesus is the culmination of God's revelation to humanity, as He is the Son through whom God created all things and speaks to us today.
Revelation 21:6 AMPC
And He said to me, "It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To the thirsty I will give water without price from the fountain (springs) of the water of Life."
These words from the book of Revelation signify the completion of God's plan for humanity, with Jesus as the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the one who fulfilled all things.
Colossians 1:17 TPT
He existed before anything was made, and *now* everything finds completion in him.
Galatians 2:20 TPT
My old identity has been co-crucified with Christ and no longer lives. And now the essence of this new life is no longer mine, for The Anointed One lives his life through me - we live in union as one! My new life is empowered by the faith of The Son of God who loves me so much that he gave himself for me, dispensing his life into mine!
Hebrews 10:14 TPT
...By his one perfect sacrifice He, Jesus, made us perfectly holy and complete for all time!
Colossians 2:8-10 NIV
8 See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends on human tradition and the elemental spiritual forces of this world rather than on Christ.
9 For in Christ all the fullness of The Deity lives in bodily form,
10 and in Christ you have been brought to fullness. He is the head over every power and authority.
Here, the Bible explains that, in Christ, all things are already complete.
1 Corinthians 2:8-16 AMPC
8 None of the rulers of this age or world perceived and recognized and understood this, for if they had, they would never have crucified The Lord of Glory.
9 But, on the contrary, as the Scripture says, "What eye has not seen and ear has not heard and has not entered into the heart of man, God has prepared (made and keeps ready) for those who love Him."
10 Yet to us God has unveiled and revealed them by and through His Spirit, for The [Holy] Spirit searches diligently, exploring and examining everything, even sounding the profound and bottomless things of God.
11 For what person perceives (knows and understands) what passes through a man's thoughts except the man's own spirit within him? Just so no one discerns (comes to know and comprehend) the thoughts of God except The Spirit of God.
12 Now we have not received the spirit [that belongs to] the world, but The [Holy] Spirit Who is from God, that we might realize and comprehend and appreciate the gifts bestowed on us by God.
13 And we are setting these truths forth in words not taught by human wisdom but taught by The [Holy] Spirit, combining and interpreting spiritual truths with spiritual language.
14 But the natural, nonspiritual man does not accept or welcome or admit into his heart the gifts and teachings and revelations of The Spirit of God, for they are folly (meaningless nonsense) to him; and he is incapable of knowing them because they are spiritually discerned and estimated and appreciated.
15 But the spiritual man tries all things, yet is himself to be put on trial and judged by no one.
16 For who has known or understood the mind (the counsels and purposes) of The Lord so as to guide and instruct Him and give Him knowledge? But we have the mind of Christ (The Messiah) and do hold the thoughts (feelings and purposes) of His heart.
Luke 18:27 TPT
Jesus responded, "What appears humanly impossible is more than possible with God. For God can do what man cannot."
Acts 16:31 TPT
They answered, "Believe in The Lord Jesus and you will be saved - you and all your family."
Jeremiah 29:11 AMPC
"For I know the thoughts and plans that I have for you," says The Lord, "thoughts and plans for welfare and peace and not for evil, to give you hope in your final outcome."
In summary, the Bible presents multiple verses that emphasize the completion of God's plan through Jesus, from His fulfillment of prophecy to His sacrifice on the cross to His role in reconciling all things back to God. The book of Hebrews confirms that Jesus is the culmination of God's revelation to humanity, and the book of Revelation signifies the completion of God's plan for humanity. Through these verses, it is clear that Jesus has already fulfilled all of the Bible, God's plan, and prophecy found in it.
