BP65: Prayers for Healing, Miracles, Consecration, and Divine Enablement

 

Holy Trinity…

In Your power, kill the devilish diseases within me; heal the wounds, injuries, and traumas I’ve sustained; dissolve or eliminate that which doesn’t belong; and raise to life or recreate that which is dead, damaged, or missing—or just asleep—but shouldn’t be.

Heal my heart-mind, body, and personhood miraculously. Do that or show me how to do so myself. Either way, I’ll be eternally grateful to You and for You.

O God…

There’s residual hurt in my soul from the traumas I’ve suffered throughout my life. My reactive personas—which I created (on-the-fly and very early in life) to protect me from future harm and to “secure,” in almost any way possible, my emotional happiness—is killing me. Accordingly, let’s work together…

1/To heal me of the emotional, physical, and psycho-physical injuries that have plagued me for so long now.

And…

2/To (when possible) heal and assimilate healthfully and healthily, or (when necessary) to dismantle, all such persona-constructs.

Holy Papa and Jesus…

May Your Spirit dwell within me richly. May He occupy and animate every cell in my body; course through every artery, capillary, and vein; inspire every thought and intention of my heart-mind; and move for, in, with, through, and (mysteriously unveiled) AS me in whatever ways and to whatever extents He desires.

Holy Spirit…

I give You free reign in my life. Do in me as You please, and give me the wisdom and gumption to, in complete freedom and faithfulness, do what I must do myself and for myself responsibly and responsively as My Papa’s Son [or Daughter] and as Jesus’ Baby Brother [or Sister].

I am Your Temple, O Holy, Glorious, and Gracious God. Raise me to fullness of life, light, love, as well as glory, goodness, and gladness; and move for, in, with, through, and (mysteriously unveiled) AS me to the praise of Your glory.

In Your Name, Lord Jesus, I ask for and declare all these things and no-things [life-giving expressions, generative creations]…

Amen, and AMEN!! O Living, Illuminating, and Loving God… MAY IT ALL BE SO!!

BP70 - As Think upon and Respond to the Words of Those Around Me

Jesus to me (as I think upon and respond to the words of those around me): “Dave… Those who are full of talk and themselves know nothing; Those Who Are Wise speak very little, and then only cautiously, candidly, frankly, humbly, respectfully, and reverently of the little they do know, being careful to hint at The Source of Their Wisdom. Live out The Gospel, Dave, kind-heartedly, happily, and freely; and do so far more often than you ever talk about it. It’s hard to ignore a kind-hearted, happy, and free person. A life lived in such a way will communicate volumes and quell—through stillness and tender-heartedness—the accusing and slandering voices of the entrapped, injured, and crippled; the explosively enraged; the arrogantly hateful; the inordinately driven; the deceitfully harsh; and the painstakingly ignorant.”

BP 32 - Self-knowledge, a meditation

Image
It’s been said that the highest form of human knowledge is self-knowledge. I both agree with and disagree with this statement. My disagreement lies, mostly, with the stopping of the argument at the general (and exquisitely broad) category of “self-knowledge.” To begin, what is self-knowledge? Is it knowledge? Certainly. Knowledge about oneself? Most assuredly. But it’s more—MUCH MORE!!—than just knowledge about oneself. Self-knowledge is knowledge about oneself that’s truly “lived” and “experienced.” In a word, self-knowledge is “wisdom;” and it’s real (that is, based in reality) and not abstract [considered apart from concrete existence; not applied or practical; theoretical; difficult to understand; abstruse]. Wisdom is knowledge of oneself (and of why one exists [which is rooted in belief]) lived out congruently and concretely—and lived out well [this is also the definition of goodness]. You say you know how to make your bed. Well… that’s all fine and good. The question

BP 41 - A Warrior, a Meditation

Image
A warrior practices everything. He [or she ] relinquishes his pride, he lays down his efforts to orchestrate his life, he cleans up his habits and rituals, he lets go of his attachments, he becomes increasingly mindful of his emotional states and of his connection to all things, and he takes responsibility—for his thoughts, feelings, actions, and life-outcomes—and nothing more than that. A warrior allows life to express itself through him in whatever forms it might take. He uses his mind and his body in ways few people have the courage to. He meditates in every action. He neither seeks nor runs from pain or adversity; when it comes, he embraces it and uses it to purify his soul. A warrior keeps death and his life’s purposes in the forefront of his mind. He’s genuine, authentically present, and open... to life, to God, and to those around him. A warrior is infinitely happy; he’s at peace with himself; he’s frugal—yet exceptionally generous; he’s a gentle and approachable soul—yet
