The story in the Bible at Luke 4 is the story of Jesus’ 40-days and 40-nights in the desert. Jesus went into the desert to purify from lower vibrations, namely false beliefs, fears, desires and conditioning.
NTI Luke 4 is the beginning of the purification process for the reader. From this point forward, NTI takes the role of spiritual teacher and guides the reader through purification. However, NTI cannot do this alone. You must choose to follow the guidance of NTI in your daily life. If you make that choice, NTI becomes your guide. When NTI becomes your guide, it is more than written words on the page. It is also your inner guide, meaning it will be with you as inner spiritual intuition whether the book is with you or not.
Today’s reading says, “Jesus came out of the desert a teacher, but the one who taught through him was the Holy Spirit. This is the same one that teaches you now, so that no time has elapsed since Jesus seemed to teach until the time that I am teaching you now.”
In other words, that which led Jesus into the desert for purification, that which taught through him after purification, that which speaks through NTI and your spiritual intuition are all the same one. It has been called by many names, including the Holy Spirit and the Voice for God. It is the knowingness of pure consciousness. Today’s reading is an invitation to let this Voice be your guide.
The reading says, “… you will not have to look far to find doubt within your mind.”
It’s helpful to admit that we have doubts, and then move forward trusting inner intuition to the best of our ability anyway. If doubt holds us back, no movement occurs. Doubt can keep us at a lower vibrational level.
Maybe you aren’t sure that you intuit spiritual intuition. That’s okay. It really doesn’t matter at this point whether you do or not. You have access to conscience—everyone has access to conscience—and you have spiritual intuition through NTI, so start there.
NTI Luke 1 said:
Each one comes to the awareness of truth from where he is, so where he is, is where he must begin to learn. There is no shame in his starting point, wherever that starting point seems to be.
Keep things simple. Our goal now is to raise our vibrational level by choosing to follow the highest vibration currently available to us. By doing that, higher vibrations become available. So, that is all you have to do.
If you are worried that you won’t recognize the highest vibration, you can put that worry aside. Worry is a lower vibration. Remember what NTI Luke 2 said:
The birth of Jesus represents the birth of willingness, humble at first, but promising within it all of the glory of Heaven. Mary pondered this promise in her heart, not with the worrisome thoughts of the ego, but in her heart where the Holy Spirit is.
Instead of worrying, simply be willing to take one step at a time. NTI has promised to guide you, and it will. NTI gives very specific guidance—clear and easy-to-follow guidance.
Our guidance begins in tomorrow’s reading. Today, contemplate your willingness to follow NTI’s guidance.
Thoughts of Awakening # 64
You are misled,
because you believe
that you need
that which is hurting you
the most.
Lay aside your old way of thinking.
It is not your truth.
It is an obstacle to truth.
~From our Holy Spirit
