THE UPWARD PATH
     Do the internal work so God can lead you to the upward path!
     I want you to know that you’re in that condition where you still are trying to do it by yourself, for yourself, and I tell you, you’re not going to make it. You are not going to make it, but you don’t know that yet. But I want you to be in a state of complete agreement you’re not going to make it the way you’ve been trying. Then something else can happen.
     I’m telling you, you don’t have to do it and you’d better not do it, or you’ll never make it if you rely on yourself. What you have to do is stop trying to climb the mountain in your own wisdom and arrogance. Just stop! You have to stop doing what you’re doing!
     Here is the alternative: What you have to do is pass along the base of the mountain and go through a storm that is even worse than the one you’re living in now. And if you’ll go through this superstorm ten miles long, on the other side of the storm you will find the path. The path you will find has already been prepared. “In my Father’s house are many mansions.” It will always be there! You can’t climb of yourself, but you have to do the internal work that is necessary for you to find the cleared way.
     From storm valley, you now go through a deeper storm, a different kind of storm. It consists of you, what you are now. No one else is the storm; you’re the storm. We’re talking about passing through the storm along the base of the mountain where you come into a clearing where the path begins upward. That’s the same thing as a new nature for you. You can’t do it on your own and you never will.
     You have to ponder how you can stop being what you are, and what you are doing.
     Spiritual knowledge is everything. Fight hard to get rid of your present existence so that God can lead you to the upward path.

NOTHING IS STRONGER THAN GOD
     You must never acknowledge that anything is stronger than God. You can build a new nature which is strength and wisdom and right action. You will be taken over by something you should be taken over by, which has nothing to do with your old nature, or anyone else’s nature. And it operates through you, and here’s what it says internally, silently, and with a 100% pure success. Something happens to make you feel angry, despondent, and you want to strike back and get revenge. You now have 100% power to say to that and all other weaknesses and evils, “THERE IS SOMETHING IN ME THAT DOES NOT SUBMIT TO THAT. IT IS SUPERIOR TO EVERYTHING.”
     Never acknowledge that anything is stronger than Truth, than God.
