I – “The other disciples therefore said to him, “We have seen the Lord.” So he said to them, “Unless I see in His hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the print of the nails, and put my hand into His side, I will not believe.” (John 20:25 – NIV)

____________________________________

II – “Then I saw Heaven open wide—and oh! a white horse and its Rider. The Rider, named Faithful and True, judges and makes war in pure righteousness. His eyes are a blaze of fire, on his head many crowns. He has a Name inscribed that’s known only to himself.” (Revelation 19:11, 12 – The Message)

_____________________________________

III – ‘Crown Him with Many Crowns’ (1851) Written by Matthew Bridges

1 – Crown him with many crowns, the Lamb upon his throne. Hark! how the heavenly anthem drowns all music but its own. Awake, my soul, and sing of him who died for thee, and hail him as thy matchless king through all eternity.

2 – Crown him the Lord of life, who triumphed o’er the grave, and rose victorious in the strife for those he came to save; his glories now we sing who died and rose on high, who died eternal life to bring, and lives that death may die.

3 – Crown him the Lord of love; BEHOLD HIS HANDS AND SIDE, RICH WOUNDS, YET VISIBLE ABOVE, IN BEAUTY GLORIFIED; no angels in the sky can fully bear that sight, but downward bends their burning eye at mysteries so bright.

4 – Crown him the Lord of years, the potentate of time, creator of the rolling spheres, ineffably sublime. All hail, Redeemer, hail! for thou hast died for me; thy praise shall never, never fail throughout eternity.

I – “Welcome with open arms fellow believers who don’t see things the way you do. And don’t jump all over them every time they do or say something you don’t agree with—even when it seems that they are strong on opinions but weak in the faith department. Remember, they have their own history to deal with. Treat them gently.”
(Romans 14:1 – The Message)
___________________________
II – “Cultivate your own relationship with God, but don’t impose it on others. You’re fortunate if your behavior and your belief are coherent. But if you’re not sure, if you notice that you are acting in ways inconsistent with what you believe—some days trying to impose your opinions on others, other days just trying to please them—then you know that you’re out of line. If the way you live isn’t consistent with what you believe, then it’s wrong.”
(Romans 14:22, 23 – The Message)
_____________________________
III – “Very truly I tell you, when you were younger you dressed yourself and went where you wanted; but when you are old you will stretch out your hands, and someone else will dress you and lead you where you do not want to go.” Jesus said this to indicate the kind of death by which Peter would glorify God.Then he said to him, “Follow me!” Peter turned and saw that the disciple whom Jesus loved was following them. (This was the one who had leaned back against Jesus at the supper and had said, “Lord, who is going to betray you?”) When Peter saw him, he asked, “Lord, what about him?” Jesus answered, “If I want him to remain alive until I return, what is that to you? You must follow me.”
(John 21:18-22 – NIV)
________________________________
VII – I’m going be very bossy here, and just tell you what you need to do…now that I’m a year older (thanks again for the birthday greetings), I’m leaning in, harder than ever, to the Seasoned Elder/Oracle/Wise Man vibe, so I don’t want any back talk about this…
So here it is (and these aren’t suggestions)…stop apologizing for who you are…you’re awesome, even with your flaws (you’re “flawsome”!) just the way you are…for goodness sakes, forgive yourself already for whatever you did, and let it go…you’re thinking about it WAY MORE than anyone else is, and it’s probably much bigger in your mind that it actually was…stop wasting your time over-explaining yourself…just live your authentic life, and allow the people that you affect to adjust to you unapologetically living your truth…and if they can’t, it’s not the end of the world…stop trying to micro-manage everybody else, and convert them to your way of thinking…some people in your orbit are never, ever, ever, ever going to come around to your way of thinking, so you just need to accept it like you do the changing of the seasons…and if by chance they ever do come around to your viewpoint, it won’t be because you nagged or shamed them into it…you can influence people, but it’s also true that you can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make him drink…either they get it or they don’t…if you think they’re idiotic for seeing the world the way they do, then go for the “Let him who is ignorant be ignorant still” concept, and move it along…free yourself…say what you want to say without hesitation, post what you want to post, hold fast to your beliefs, but stop letting yourself get so frustrated over and over again when other people don’t embrace those beliefs…it doesn’t matter…live and let live…
Be happy, and follow your bliss, every single day…do what brings you joy, and if it doesn’t bring your joy, cut it out of your life…who cares if other people get it or not?!…your joy matters…your sense of well-being matters…your freedom matters…and if there’s something hard or unpleasant that you have to do that’s not avoidable, then do what you have to do to make the thing as tolerable and workable as it can be, and get through it without compromising who you are…
Remember that loving people and being a people pleaser are not at all the same thing…loving people is empowering…living only to please other people is sad and pathetic…you can love people and still tell them no if you need to (depends on your relationship with them)…boundaries are perfectly compatible with unconditional love, so don’t get it twisted, or allow someone to manipulate you…
Go the extra mile, and but don’t forget to advocate for yourself when you’ve done enough, and there’s nothing left to give…take care of yourself FIRST…period (in the words of Forrest Gump, “And that’s all I have to say about that”)…
Stop wasting your time waiting for the apology that’s never coming…you’ve given that person enough of your power…learn from it, and keep moving…
And once again, if it makes you happy, and you’re not intentionally hurting anyone by doing it, THEN DO IT…whatever you do with your time and with your money is YOUR BUSINESS alone…when other people have judgments or opinions about the way you live, or with what you wear, or with what you spend, or about what you believe, etc, DO NOT HESITATE TO REMIND THEM THAT YOU ARE NOT ACCOUNTABLE TO THEM (“Owe no man anything but to love him”)…
Protect the life that you’ve curated, and celebrate it…don’t compare it with anyone else’s…
Remember you are an ORIGINAL, so be willing to pay the price for nonconformity…it’s TOTALLY worth it!
I could say a lot more, but you just need to work on these things for right now…I’ll be back when you need some more…

I – “Make Your reign and kingdom come. Make Your will (the effect of Your intent and purpose) come into existence (happen; come to be; be birthed) – as within heaven (or the atmosphere), so also upon earth.” (Matthew 6:10 – JMNT

______________________

II – “I will continue giving to you the keys [means of locking or unlocking] which have their origin and source in the reign and activities of the heavens(…which belong to the sovereignty from the atmospheres…the keys which are the sovereign reign of the heavens). And so, whatever you can bind upon the earth will continue being something having been bound, and still remaining bound, within the midst of the heavens (or in the atmospheres). Also, whatever you can loose upon the earth will continue being something having been loosed (unbound; untied), and remaining free of bonds, within the midst of the heavens (in the atmospheres).” (Matthew 16:19 – JMNT)

___________________________

III – “It is true…Whatsoever things you can at some point bind or should tie upon the earth will continue being things having already been tied or bound within heaven (or in your atmosphere). Also, as many things as you would loose or untie upon the earth will continue being things having already been loosed and untied within heaven (or in your atmosphere). (Mattew 18:18 – JMNT)

______________________________

IV – “One of the Hebrew meanings of the word ‘serpent’ (Strongs #5172) is: To learn by one’s own experience. This is what the woman did as she partook of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil/bad. She ignored her own inner intuition and chose that which appealed to her senses, including her outer facilities. She gave power to that which had no power. She failed to YIELD her intellect, reason, logic, senses and emotions (in and of themselves), but rather gravitated toward that which ‘appeared’ before her and ‘appealed’ to her. Whether we call it devil, satan, serpent, adversary or enemy, we must realize that there is only One Power. Nothing in and of itself has any power, except the power we give it, by believing that it is/has a power. The ‘enemy’ mentioned in Romans 8:7 is connected with carnal/fleshly thinking, rather than a spirit being outside of ourselves. Also, the term ‘devil’ is defined as a traducing, slandering and accusing mentality, rather than an external entity. Many today refer to a ‘big devil’ and a ‘little God’. More attention is wasted on talking about how much power a devil has than in showing forth the power and praises of Father/God. Why is this so? Because people are taught to judge by ‘appearances’ exactly as the woman did in the garden. She LOOKED and SAW that the fruit was good for food—All of this took place in the outer senses, facilities and emotions. She learned by her OWN EXPERIENCE (meaning of serpent), rather than yielding her facilities, turning within while consulting her spirit.” – Kay Fairchild

V – “Blessed are the flexible, for change is inevitable. To fulfill our true destiny as spiritual beings we must trust in our divine power to adapt.” ― Anthon St. Maarten

________________________

VI – “To get godly powers, you must have godly qualities. For the human mind, the easiest godly quality to acquire is ‘Infinite Patience’. That means, you should be able to wait infinitely for the results. In other words, you should not expect results. Those who can wait infinitely get it instantly.” ― Shunya

Notes Below Created by AI Based Off Of The Transcript Of The Video.

In the latest Metron Live, Jim Swilley takes us on a transformative journey, exploring the power of rest, vulnerability, and the creative force of our words.

Discovering Your Metron

Metron, a Greek word meaning “sphere of influence,” serves as a reminder that each of us has a unique space to thrive. Jim encourages us to live our best life by embracing who we truly are.

The Affirmation of Wholeness

He leads a series of affirmations, declaring:
✔️ I am blessed. I am a blessing.
✔️ I am whole. I am wellness.
✔️ I am peace. I am serenity.
Speaking these truths over our lives shifts our mindset, helping us step into alignment with the life we desire.

Laboring to Enter Rest

Drawing from Hebrews 4, Jim unpacks the paradox: rest requires effort. He explains that finding peace and flow in life doesn’t happen automatically—it requires conscious intention, self-work, and surrender.

Transparency and Freedom

Hebrews 4:12 describes how the Word of God exposes our innermost self, not to shame us but to set us free. Jim emphasizes:
💡 God already knows you—your strengths, struggles, and secrets—and He loves you as you are.
💡 The truth makes you free, and the more we embrace it, the bolder we become.

The Role of Goodness and Mercy

Jim beautifully describes how goodness and mercy follow us, acting as a divine “fixer” that cleans up our past mistakes and helps us move forward. Instead of living in fear, regret, or judgment, we are invited to walk confidently, knowing that grace covers us.

Manifesting the Kingdom

Instead of waiting for heaven, Jim calls us to bring heaven to earth by speaking life into our circumstances. He reminds us:
🔹 Our words shape our reality.
🔹 Our mindset determines our experience.
🔹 Love, grace, and empathy are the essence of true spirituality.

As Jim wraps up, he encourages us to step into boldness, transparency, and rest, knowing that our best days are still ahead.

I – “I form the light and create darkness, I make peace [national well-being] and I create [physical] evil (calamity); I am the Lord, Who does all these things.” (Isaiah 45:7 – AMPC)

____________________________

II – Satan/The Anger of the Lord “SATAN rose up against Israel and incited David to take a census of Israel.” (I Chronicles 21:1 – NIV) ” And the ANGER OF THE LORD burned against Israel, and he incited David against them, saying, “Go and take a census of Israel and Judah.” (II Samuel 24:1 – NIV)

________________________________

III – The Tempter/His Own Temptations “Now when THE TEMPTER came to Him, he said, “If You are the Son of God, command that these stones become bread.” (Matthew 4:3 – NKJV) “…and then came HIS OWN TEMPTATIONS and said to Him, “if you are the Son of God (Alaha) say to these stones to become bread…” (Matthew 4:3 – Khaboris Manuscript)

_________________________________

IV – The Devil/Uprightness “Then the devil took Him up into the holy city, set Him on the pinnacle of the temple…” (Matthew 4:5 – NKJV) “Then UPRIGHTNESS carried Him to a holy city and stood Him upon the pinnacle of the temple…” (Matthew 4:5 – Khaboris Manuscipt)

___________________________________

V – “Then a spirit came forward and stood before the Lord, and said, ‘I will persuade him.’ The Lord said to him, ‘In what way?’ So he said, ‘I will go out and be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets.’ And the Lord said, ‘You shall persuade him, and also prevail. Go out and do so.’ Therefore look! The Lord has put a lying spirit in the mouth of all these prophets of yours, and the Lord has declared disaster against you.” (1 Kings 22:21-23 – NKJV)

____________________________________

VI – “It is wonderful how much time good people spend fighting the devil. If they would only expend the same amount of energy loving their fellow men, the devil would die in his own tracks of ennui.” Helen Keller

__________________________________

VII – “Do not curse the devil, but instead speak the name of God.” The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) explained that when you focus on cursing the devil, you give him too much weight and space. He grows in pride knowing that he has disturbed you. Instead speak the name of God and seek refuge in him (ie. Bismillah), and the devil will shrink to the size of a fly. Evil only occupies what we let it occupy. Satan is weak and can only whisper. Evil thrives on idleness and insecurity. Do not give space to anyone who wishes you harm, not in your thoughts nor in your hearts. Those that slander, those that deceive, those that seek to divert you, and those that seek to lead you astray. Focus on Your Lord and on busying yourself with good, and evil will despair in the face of devotion. – Shaykh Omar Suleiman

I – “For if our HEART condemn us, God is greater than our HEART, and knoweth all things. Beloved, if our HEART condemn us not, then have we confidence toward God. And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him…” (I John 3:20-22 – KJV)

_________________________

II – “because, even if our HEART may continually condemn (censure; know-down by experience), God is constantly greater than our HEART, and He knows all mankind, (all people; or: everything; all things) by intimate experience. Beloved ones…if our HEART should not be constantly condemning or censuring (or: would not repeatedly experience negative insights or habitually have knowledge which leads us down), we constantly have confident freedom in speaking (boldness from our citizenship) toward and face to face with God, and whatever we may continuously ask (or habitually request), we keep on progressively receiving from Him…” (I John 3:20-22 – JMNT)

_______________________

III – “For with the HEART man believeth unto righteousness…” (Romans 10:10 – KJV)

_________________________

IV – “We accept the love we think we deserve.” -Stephen Chbosky

_________________________

VII – “And hearing are they the sound of Yahweh Elohim walking in the garden in the windy part of the day. And hiding themselves are the human and his wife from the face of Yahweh Elohim, in the midst of a tree of the garden.” And calling is Yahweh Elohim to the human, and He is saying to him, “Adam! Where are you? And saying is he to Him, “The sound of You walking hear I in the garden, and fearful am I, for naked am I, and I am hiding. And saying is He to him, “Did anyone tell you that you are naked? From the tree of which alone I instruct you to avoid eating, from it did you eat? (Genesis 3:8-11 – CLV)
