Fulfilled

-
Jesus returned to Galilee in the power of the Spirit, and news about him spread through the whole countryside. He was teaching in their synagogues, and everyone praised him. He went to Nazareth, where he had been brought up, and on the Sabbath day he went into the synagogue, as was his custom. He stood up to read, and the scroll of the prophet Isaiah was handed to him. Unrolling it, he found the place where it is written: “The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to set the oppressed free, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.” Then he rolled up the scroll, gave it back to the attendant and sat down. The eyes of everyone in the synagogue were fastened on him. He began by saying to them, “Today this scripture is fulfilled in your hearing.”” ‭‭Luke‬ ‭4‬:‭14‬-‭21‬ ‭NIV ‬‬

Direction For Life

-
Jesus said to his disciples: “Things that cause people to stumble are bound to come, but woe to anyone through whom they come. It would be better for them to be thrown into the sea with a millstone tied around their neck than to cause one of these little ones to stumble. So watch yourselves. “If your brother or sister sins against you, rebuke them; and if they repent, forgive them. Even if they sin against you seven times in a day and seven times come back to you saying ‘I repent,’ you must forgive them.” ‭‭Luke‬ ‭17‬:‭1‬-‭4‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Seek me. Allow me to reach out and heal your heart. I will place my ways into your pathway so you may learn from me. Do not be discouraged. That is a ploy of the enemy. Be alert and listen. I will place challenges so you can grow stronger. I will show you opportunities to reach out and share my love and healing with others.

Be Filled

-
Jesus answered, “Even if I testify on my own behalf, my testimony is valid, for I know where I came From and where I am going. But you have no idea where I come from or where I am going. You judge by human standards; I pass judgment on no one. But if I do judge, my decisions are true, because I am not alone. I stand with the Father, who sent me. In your own Law it is written that the testimony of two witnesses is true. I am one who testifies for myself; my other witness is the Father, who sent me.” ‭‭John‬ ‭8‬:‭14‬-‭18‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Do not rush through your day. Put aside your schedule. Listen and await for me. Yes, I am there with you. I will speak to you. Are you ready? Be filled with my Spirit. Move secure in the direction we will lead you. I am the light. I will lead you where you should go.

My Caring

-
The Lord is good, a refuge in times of trouble. He cares for those who trust in him, but with an overwhelming flood he will make an end of Nineveh; he will pursue his foes into the realm of darkness. ‭‭Nahum‬ ‭1‬:‭7‬-‭8‬ ‭NIV‬‬ What do you see when you look about? All of nature is reaching up and out to me. It grows in the ways embedded within. You too are my creation. Within you is life. Reach out. Grow in the ways I have implanted for you. Listen for the sound of my voice as I direct you in your walk. I care for you .

The Rough Places

-
People’s hopes were rising as they all wondered whether John was the Messiah. John replied to all of them, “I baptize you with water. But the one who is more powerful than I is coming. I am not worthy to untie his sandal straps. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire. His winnowing shovel is in his hand to clean up his threshing floor. He will gather the wheat into his barn, but he will burn the husks in a fire that can never be put out.” ‭‭Luke‬ ‭3‬:‭15‬-‭17‬ ‭GW‬‬ As you go through your daily travels, look back to your stops and interruptions. See if I was there? Was it me who drew your attention to those places and faces? I am there with you. Now allow me to lead you through those rough places. Wait and listen for me.

Your Journey

-
Bind up this testimony of warning and seal up God’s instruction among my disciples. I will wait for the Lord, who is hiding his face from the descendants of Jacob. I will put my trust in him. Here am I, and the children the Lord has given me. We are signs and symbols in Israel from the Lord Almighty, who dwells on Mount Zion. ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭8‬:‭16‬-‭18‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Don't allow your imagination to mislead you. It would lead you on rabbit trails away from where I would lead you. It would tell you, you are unloved. That is not true. Don't believe those lies of the enemy. Put aside the noise and receive my peace. Trust me. Share my ways with those you will meet in your journey.

My Word

-
Elijah was a human being, even as we are. He prayed earnestly that it would not rain, and it did not rain on the land for three and a half years. Again he prayed, and the heavens gave rain, and the earth produced its crops. My brothers and sisters, if one of you should wander from the truth and someone should bring that person back, remember this: Whoever turns a sinner from the error of their way will save them from death and cover over a multitude of sins. ‭‭James‬ ‭5‬:‭17‬-‭20‬ ‭NIV‬‬ When you quiet yourself you can hear me. You will know I am there with you. You will sense me directing you in the way you should be going. Put aside your anger and anxiety. I am your provider. Follow after me as you feed upon my Word.

Announcing...

-
And Mary said: “My soul glorifies the Lord and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior, for he has been mindful of the humble state of his servant. From now on all generations will call me blessed, for the Mighty One has done great things for me — holy is his name. His mercy extends to those who fear him, from generation to generation. He has performed mighty deeds with his arm; he has scattered those who are proud in their inmost thoughts. He has brought down rulers from their thrones but has lifted up the humble. He has filled the hungry with good things but has sent the rich away empty. He has helped his servant Israel, remembering to be merciful to Abraham and his descendants forever, just as he promised our ancestors.” ‭‭Luke‬ ‭1‬:‭46‬-‭55‬ ‭NIV‬‬
