Increase my capacity!  Increase my capacity to receive!

In several moments of my life, and I’ve probably said it once or twice, I’ve heard that you have to ‘get’ rid of this (whatever this is) in order to receive.  Once more this morning, the Holy Spirit refreshed me again in that receiving is not gotten by ‘getting’ or “getting rid of.”  Rather, it is gotten by giving.  SELAH!  As this chant (Increase my capacity!  Increase my capacity to receive!) lived in my soul at daylight, I heard my spirit self, my true self, searching for ways to give so that my capacity to receive is increased.

These thoughts elicited an exaltation of thankfulness.  A gratefulness that I couldn’t utter with words.  Keenly, I heard the voice of the LORD riding and abiding (walking in the garden).  A humble praise welled up in me and erupted.  I!  I worship (respect and love) Elohim.  Him, Whom I BElieve in.  The sheer thought of “giving” resulted in a freedom in my soul, sown in tears of humility.

Many names scrolled across my face as I declared into the air, concerning them: “INCREASE THEIR CAPACITY TO RECEIVE!”

In essence, this means that they must give.  If we stop giving, we compress our capacity to receive.  Receiving and giving are flowing through the same veins.  If our blood stops flowing, it will begin to clot.  What was liquidly flowing, smooth and fluent, is now lumpy.  Something within has stopped giving, stopped circulating in our life, resulting in something within not receiving.

Don’t clot your capacity to receive!  SELAH!

You may ask, “Give what?”  And I say to you, give thanks, give a hug, give someone a meal, give them a job, give someone your undivided attention; give a compliment, give honor and respect, give compassion, give mercy and kindness, give cheerfully, give Pure Divine Love.  Give yourself!

It’s been said that a man (meaning a human) can’t make you happy.  That is an absolute untruth.  If that were true, a man can’t, on the same scope, make you sad or angry or mad.  The truth is, and I can guarantee you, that the moment a man “gives” cheerfully to you something you’ve desired, gives you a surprise, or gives you a gift that you didn’t expect you are happy!  We should always give what will bring happiness.

As I fortify myself to remain a giver, I encourage you:  LET us make daily decisions to give to everyone that we come in contact with.  This manner of giving increases our capacity to receive everything that we ask for.
