"Pennies From Heaven"

Oh, every time it rains
It rains
Pennies from heaven
Don't you know
Each cloud contains
Pennies from heaven

You'll find your fortune fallin'
All over town
Be sure that your umbrella
Is upside down

Trade them for a package of
Sunshine and flowers
If you want the things you love
You must have showers
So when you hear it thunder
Don't run under a tree
There'll be pennies from heaven
For you and me

That is a great song with much truth in it.  If you have been following the GOOD NEWS, we have shown in previous documents that “God poured His spirit upon all flesh”.  These holy spirits are teachers, guards and leaders He assigns to each human child planted in the flesh.  You also know that He led ancient Israel in the wilderness of Sin with a cloud by day and a fire by night to reflect that very truth.  The spiritual symbols of the angels are indeed “cloud” and “fire”.

Clouds have a wonderful task.  They form from moisture from the earth, they cover from the heat of the sun, and they make rain.

When God made man, He made us as tiny “cells” of Himself.  Thus mankind collectively is the Body of God walking around on the planet earth.  Since “our life” is a sharing of God’s sensory perception, He manages everything each man perceives and feels.  The scriptures refer to this truth by stating, “I will dwell in them and walk in them”.  It is also what Jesus meant in the parable, "Whatsoever you do or don’t do to the least of the children, you have also done to me”.  The point is our Father never left any of us.  He suffers directly with each offspring and what we feel is a sharing of His feelings and emotions.  Although God assigns angels to each of us, He is our first and primary Teacher, because He is each one of us.  This brings us to another parable.

A wealthy land owner went on a journey and gave each of his servants a penny.  Upon his return He took inventory of each one to see what that servant did with the lord’s money.  Now we have come full circle to our featured song.

Father Himself is one penny’s worth of wisdom, light, understanding and capability in whatever degree within each offspring.  No matter what nation, language, or ethnicity, or religion one is born in, Father doles out one penny to each of His human seed. Our cloudy friends assigned to us are eager to share what they know with us, but they must do battle with the demonic tares on our body determined to give us a wicked, negative experience.  Angels speak to us within our head and we perceive their words as thought or “my reasoning with my good angels”.  In the Book of the Revelation it is written, “A measure of wheat for a penny and three measures of barley for a penny.  Do not hurt the oils and wine”.  This is what they offer for sale to human students on earth.  We know they offer water, too.  And all life needs water to thrive and to survive.  Wheat and barley are nutrition substances one needs for spiritual growth. Wine is joy and happiness, and “oil” is the ability to take correction and reproof for one’s own good.  These are the kinds of things one can get from angels when they rain, water and more pennies.  So a man can grow and thrive and obtain wealth by gathering as many pennies as he can during his lifetime.

Going back to Jesus’ parable, after a certain time the householder returned to see how well his servants had done with his money.  One servant said, "I have gained two pennies with the one you gave me”!  Another said, “I gained five more with the penny you gave me”!  Still another said, “Lord I have gained ten bedside the one penny you gave me”.  Lastly another crept in slowly and said, “I knew you are a hard and austere man so I did not want to put my penny to risk.  So I hid it in the ground. Here is that penny that you gave me”.  You know the rest of the story.

Every one has at least one penny worth of faith.  You can believe your angels and follow their lead.  You will find a profitable life in doing so.  But if you reject your good angels and prefer the voices of your tares, you will find darkness and trouble.

There is something else about the clouds when it rains.  You can learn a great lesson about what God is doing.  When clouds rain they sometimes display a rainbow.  This is the symbol of life that God gave to humanity, that He will never destroy us by water.  Also, I have heard that there is a pot of golden pennies at the end of each rainbow.  This is the location of the treasure of light from which the angels get their pennies to share with us.  Blessed is the man who understands these things for he shall obtain peace, joy, and light!

Glorify God!

God did it!
