If you listen, you will hear the moving of my spirit over the earth. It is awakening and filling those who may respond. Understand the message He has for you.

Gideon replied, If you are truly going to help me, show me a sign to prove that it is really the Lord speaking to me. Don’t go away until I come back and bring my offering to you. He answered, I will stay here until you return. Gideon hurried home. He cooked a young goat, and with a basket of flour he baked some bread without yeast. Then, carrying the meat in a basket and the broth in a pot, he brought them out and presented them to the angel, who was under the great tree. The angel of God said to him, Place the meat and the unleavened bread on this rock, and pour the broth over it. And Gideon did as he was told. Then the angel of the Lord touched the meat and bread with the tip of the staff in his hand, and fire flamed up from the rock and consumed all he had brought.  And the angel of the Lord disappeared. ‭‭Judges‬ ‭6‬:‭17‬-‭21‬ ‭(NLT‬‬)

But he kept on looking around to see who had done it. Then the frightened woman, trembling at the realization of what had happened to her, came and fell to her knees in front of him and told him what she had done. And he said to her, Daughter, your faith has made you well. Go in peace. Your suffering is over. ‭‭Mark‬ ‭5‬:‭32‬-‭34‬ ‭(NLT‬‬) Push aside your anxiety and look for me. Allow my peace to wash over you. Stop allowing the enemy to interfere in your life. I am here. Be whole, not fractured. Allow my healing to reach into your broken areas.

Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you’ll learn to live freely and lightly. ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭11‬:‭28‬-‭30‬ ‭(MSG) Leave your anxieties and turn to me. Allow my direction to lead you. I will remove those empty feelings, replacing them with joy. I am what you need. Listen and I will lead you each day. I will protect you and supply your needs. Watch for me and I will be found. Don't run from those tough situations, but ask me to lead you through. I am the way. Come walk with me .

Later, Jesus appeared again to the disciples beside the Sea of Galilee. This is how it happened. Several of the disciples were there—Simon Peter, Thomas (nicknamed the Twin), Nathanael from Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zebedee, and two other disciples. Simon Peter said, “I’m going fishing.” “We’ll come, too,” they all said. So they went out in the boat, but they caught nothing all night. At dawn Jesus was standing on the beach, but the disciples couldn’t see who he was. He called out, “Fellows, have you caught any fish?” “No,” they replied. Then he said, “Throw out your net on the right-hand side of the boat, and you’ll get some!” So they did, and they couldn’t haul in the net because there were so many fish in it. Then the disciple Jesus loved said to Peter, “It’s the Lord!” When Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he put on his tunic (for he had stripped for work), jumped into the water, and headed to shore. The others stayed with the boat and pulled the loaded net to the shore,

Trust in the Lord with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take. ‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭3‬:‭5‬-‭6‬ (‭NLT‬‬) Put your trust in me. Do not allow what you see to become your guide. Yes, follow my ways or things can become a distraction. Feed upon my written word. Within it lies life.

Put aside those worries and fears the world would lay upon you. Come with me. I will direct you to the pathway I have for you. Listen for my voice as I will direct you. I have shown you what you need for now. Absorb my written word. It will expand as you need more. Learn obedience to my voice. Listen and walk with me. I will lead where you should be. I will supply your needs.

Now the Festival of Unleavened Bread arrived, when the Passover lamb is sacrificed. Jesus sent Peter and John ahead and said, “Go and prepare the Passover meal, so we can eat it together.” “Where do you want us to prepare it?” they asked him. He replied, “As soon as you enter Jerusalem, a man carrying a pitcher of water will meet you. Follow him. At the house he enters, say to the owner, ‘The Teacher asks: Where is the guest room where I can eat the Passover meal with my disciples?’ He will take you upstairs to a large room that is already set up. That is where you should prepare our meal.” They went off to the city and found everything just as Jesus had said, and they prepared the Passover meal there. ‭‭Luke‬ ‭22‬:‭7‬-‭13‬ ‭(NLT)

Happy are those who hear the joyful call to worship, for they will walk in the light of your presence, Lord. ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭89‬:‭15‬ ‭(NLT) Look ahead with anticipation. I am yet with you. I've never turned my eyes from you. Wash away any fear the enemy tries to place on you. You are mine walk secure with me. Look ahead. I am yet leading you into new ways and roles within my kingdom.

Happy are those who hear the joyful call to worship, for they will walk in the light of your presence, Lord. They rejoice all day long in your wonderful reputation. They exult in your righteousness. You are their glorious strength. It pleases you to make us strong. Yes, our protection comes from the Lord, and he, the Holy One of Israel, has given us our king. ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭89‬:‭15‬-‭18‬ ‭(NLT‬‬)
