Dear Lord, my God. How awesome is your Word! You are faithful beyond belief. I praise your name in the midst of my pain. I present my heart to you, dear Heavenly Father, asking all over again that you stand by me forever. The more I learn, the more I know that I cannot make it in this world without you. My days, my weeks, and even my months, LORD, are all rolling together…I realize how insignificant I am to your master plan for my life. I find myself looking at life events pass by knowing that I have no control. The only thing that I can do is trust you, Lord. How helpless are my hands! How weak are my limbs. My mind and thoughts are racing back and forth. When I try to hold on, I find that I am falling away! When I try to let go, I see you close by! What is this, Lord? How do I manage? Today I know, and tomorrow I wonder. How can all of this be? That which my eyes see, my mind cannot comprehend. O Lord, my God, how glorious are your teachings. Fear surrounds me and yet I will not stop. I remember all that you have said and done. I am considering you, LORD. This revelation alone holds me closely in your midst.
As I look through the lens of life that you have given me, I hurt so badly. Sometimes, Father, I hurt so deeply inside that I find myself helpless. Why, God, does it have to be? If we all know and love you the way we claim to know you, and love you, then why is the world…the Christian world in such a crisis? Why do we follow our own hearts and resist your precious Holy Spirit? As I read your Word, I see a Loving God that is always pleading for the created souls to return to you and accept your love. The world is so wrapped up in the natural things that are seen and have no clear eyes to see who you truly are! Please help us, Lord! Help me, Lord God. Let the Holy Ghost power of your Spirit possess my soul. Let Wisdom control my every thought. Mold me, Lord, into whatever you desire. Today, Lord, I rededicate my all to serving you. No matter how difficult the road, and how dark the way…I will follow! I will follow you to the end, as I absolutely surrender my heart to you! Help me, Lord, to hold on to your unchanging hand. I am strengthened by your presence and your love. No matter what I see, I know you will never leave me and for that I say thank you, LORD God Almighty. Amen, Amen, and AMEN.
God is LOVE. God knows all things. God is the creator of the universe. All nature and animals were created by God. The heavenlies, the sun, the moon, and even the stars were created by God Almighty! The birds in the air and the beasts that walk this earth had a beginning and were created by God. The fish in the sea were created by My God Almighty. If God created ALL things, and is a pure and Holy God, where did evil come from?
It stands to reason that “something or someone” that God created released evil upon the earth…and it was not God as He was not created and always has been. The bible tells us that Lucifer/Satan/Devil, or any other name you want to use, brought disobedience, also called sin, into the world. God created mankind to love and obey him. Jesus Christ in His love for us has given us a way to return to the love of God and claim our rightful place in the Kingdom of God. He has shown the world that all we have to do is LOVE HIM and HIM Alone. He tells us that He will not only be our Father and God, but that he will be our FRIEND! He only requires us to abandon ourselves to His will and “Abide” in Him. We do not need to have any prior training or knowledge. We just need to gather all that we think we know and come humbly to Him asking that He “Dissect” our souls! This act of absolute surrender will usher in LOVE. This will bring WISDOM who has the very heart of God. God will move heaven and earth for the promotion, protection, and safety of the Holy Ghost, which is WISDOM. Let all who have an ear to hear, hear what thus saith the LORD God Almighty. Surrender today so that you may “Receive ye the Holy Ghost!” Tomorrow is not promised. Amen.
Scriptures for Consecration: (Emphasis added where bold letters appear)
10 But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you. 11 To him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen. (1 Peter 5:10-11)
3 And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments. 4 He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. 5 But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in him. 6 He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked. (1 John 2:3-6)
23 Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him. 24 He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father’s which sent me. 25 These things have I spoken unto you, being yet present with you. 26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. (John 14:23-26)
1 I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. 2 Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit. 3 Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you. 4 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. 5 I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abidethin me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing. 6 If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned. 7 If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you. 8 Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples. 9 As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love. 10 If ye keep my commandments,ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father’s commandments, and abide in his love. 11 These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full. 12 This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you. 13 Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. 14 Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you. (John 15:1-14)
1 These words spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee: 2 As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him. 3 And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent. 4 I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do. 5 And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was. 6 I have manifested thy name unto the men which thou gavest me out of the world: thine they were, and thou gavest them me; and they have kept thy word. 7 Now they have known that all things whatsoever thou hast given me are of thee. 8 For I have given unto them the words which thou gavest me; and they have received them, and have known surely that I came out from thee, and they have believed that thou didst send me. 9 I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them which thou hast given me; for they are thine. 10 And all mine are thine, and thine are mine; and I am glorified in them. (John 17:1-10)

Men should always live for the opportunity to praise and worship God. To “shout” as most Christians think of it is to offer praise and worship to God. But, is it really? It can be…if sincere. To run, scream, and yell does not mean that true praise and worship are being offered. Lucifer, now called the devil, was once a Cherubim Angel and was responsible for leading other angels in praising and worshipping God. As an act of rebellion against God, whom he hates, he incites many Christians today to disturb church services with “false” audible praise that many accept as true praises to God. Fortunately, those with a genuine spiritual connection with God are not deceived and can discern the devil’s works. God has taught me the proper manner in which to offer Him praise and worship. I share these teachings with you below.
What is Praise?
Praise, as God has taught me, is to be thankful. When we praise God, we express our gratitude for His response to our prayers and His protection of us in all matters. His loving arms are forever outstretched to fight our enemies for our survival. He does the things that we cannot do for ourselves, and for that, we should be grateful and thankful. We praise with a loud voice; we exclaim His joy everlasting, we dance as David danced, and we might even hold up holy hands. All of these things are acts of visible praise that others might see. God searches the heart as we praise Him to see if we are truly praising Him or creating a “show” for others to see. God cannot be fooled. Our praise must be genuine. The scriptures below are only a few that support the act of giving proper praise to God:
35 And she conceived again, and bare a son: and she said, Now will I praise the Lord: therefore she called his name Judah; and left bearing. (Gen 29:35)
2 Praise ye the Lord for the avenging of Israel, when the people willingly offered themselves. 3 Hear, O ye kings; give ear, O ye princes; I, even I, will sing unto the Lord; I will sing praise to the Lord God of Israel. (Judges 5:2-3)
6 And the priests waited on their offices: the Levites also with instruments of musick of the Lord, which David the king had made to praise the Lord, because his mercy endureth for ever, when David praised by their ministry; and the priests sounded trumpets before them, and all Israel stood. (2 Chron 7:5-6)
What is Worship?
To worship God is to absolutely adore Him! When we worship Him, we must “humble” ourselves in His presence. Who are we to stand upright before the Lord God? In true worship, we automatically fall on our knees, hide our faces, bow our heads, etc. God is too great for us to stand upright in His presence if we truly worship Him! The “surrendered” human spirit of man worships God, and an abandoned spirit already knows how to worship the LORD God Almighty! The scriptures below support what God has taught me about worship. True worship cannot be faked. However, Satan will mock true worshipers. His goal is to pull such a worshiper into false praise and loud outbursts, to pull them out of truly humbling themselves before the LORD. This does not mean worship is always silent, but it does mean it is NOT disruptive. God only reads the heart and knows the true intent of the heart. Make sure you are not guilty of allowing the enemy to move you into false worship.
During “true” worship given to God, the surrendered human spirit ignores the natural surroundings as the worshiper fixates on the Spirit and Presence of God Almighty! Search the scriptures and see what is said about “worship.” A few significant scriptures are listed below:
5 And the Lord descended in the cloud, and stood with him there, and proclaimed the name of the Lord. 6 And the Lord passed by before him, and proclaimed, The Lord, The Lord God, merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abundant in goodness and truth, 7 Keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, and that will by no means clear the guilty; visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the children’s children, unto the third and to the fourth generation. 8 And Moses made haste, and bowed his head toward the earth, and worshipped. (Ex 34:5-8)
23 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. 24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth. (John 4:23-24)
26 And the man bowed down his head, and worshipped the Lord. 27 And he said, Blessed be the Lord God of my master Abraham, who hath not left destitute my master of his mercy and his truth: I being in the way, the Lord led me to the house of my master’s brethren. (Gen 24:26-27)
48 I bowed down my head, and worshipped the Lord, and blessed the Lord God of my master Abraham, which had led me in the right way to take my master’s brother’s daughter unto his son. (Gen 24:48)
31 And the people believed: and when they heard that the Lord had visited the children of Israel, and that he had looked upon their affliction, then they bowed their heads and worshipped. (Ex 4:31)

Dear Heavenly Father, O how I love you, Lord God! The deeper my love for you becomes, the more I realize that I do not know you…not ALL of you! You are more than a mind can ever imagine. Continue to stretch my understanding and my love for you on every level, my LORD. With every revelation of who you are, the more I realize the vastness of your being. Only a God that is God can be so multifaceted. There is nothing common about you. With every round of glory exposed, there is yet 100 more rounds to go! How awesome you are, Dear LORD. Thank you for your teachings and presence in my life. When I am with you at the start of each day, I want nothing but to stay in your presence forever and worship you as God. How great is the sweet savor of your breath and the all-blinding glow of your righteousness. When you push me away to begin my day, it is always with the assurance that you will remain present every second and guide me as I go. I leave “drunk” from your holy presence and find that it takes time to gather myself to visually see and understand where I am! Worshipping you, LORD, reaches deep into my Soul! O Lord, Dissect My Soul. I offer this prayer, Lord, for all those that read it and especially for those that accept the words in their hearts as their own prayer to you. Amen.
I pray, Heavenly Father, that the students received the wisdom that you provided yesterday as revealed from the book of Deuteronomy. I have read this book so many times, but never received it as I did yesterday. Thank you, Lord, for always knowing what we need at specific times in our lives. I surrender my heart and soul to you this day and accept you all over again as the greatest love of my life. Have mercy on me, Father God.
Continue to bless the disciples of Dissect My Soul Ministries and all its followers and students. Particularly bless the people that have joined our “Love Jesus” Movement. Help us, LORD, and guide us in uniting the whole world in loving you completely. Teach us to worship you in truth and in spirit as you have commanded. It is your requirement that we love you in this way, Father, since you are Spirit! The words of the Holy Scriptures prove that this demand is critical to developing an intimate relationship with you since you communicate with us ONLY by Spirit to spirit. When our spirit communicates with your Spirit, we then become one with you, Lord. Thank you, Father, that there is no other way. Thank you that the way to you has been made available for all people. The race, color, or gender does not matter. Every created soul can find you if it chooses to, and every soul can fall in love with you, if such a one is willing to succumb to your perfect will! Thank you for the assurance that you are willing to be the God of all that are willing to “be your people.” Keep me as your people, LORD, and please remain as My GOD! Amen, Amen and AMEN.
