“Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?” They answered, “No,  we have not even heard that there is a Holy Spirit.” So Paul asked, “Then what baptism did you receive?” “John’s baptism,” they replied. Paul said, “John’s baptism  was a baptism of repentance. He told the people to believe in the one coming  after him, that is, in Jesus.” On hearing this, they  were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. When Paul placed his hands on them, the Holy Spirit came on them, and they spoke in tongues and prophesied. ‭‭Acts‬ ‭19‬:‭2‬-‭6‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Be honest and allow me into your life. You can't hide your fears or failures from me. I already know them and yet my love is ever-available for you. Come and sit with me. Learn of my ways. Allow my peace and healing to cover you. My Spirit is there. Follow the leading. My hands will guide you in my direction for your life.

Now Elisha had been suffering from the illness from which he died. Jehoash king of Israel went down to see him and wept over him. “My father! My father!” he cried. “The chariots and horsemen of Israel!” Elisha said, “Get a bow and some arrows,” and he did so. “Take the bow in your hands,” he said to the king of Israel. When he had taken it, Elisha put his hands on the king’s hands. “Open the east window,” he said, and he opened it. “Shoot!” Elisha said, and he shot. “The Lord’s arrow of victory, the arrow of victory over Aram!” Elisha declared. “You will completely destroy the Arameans at Aphek.” Then he said, “Take the arrows,” and the king took them. Elisha told him, “Strike the ground.” He struck it three times and stopped. The man of God was angry with him and said, “You should have struck the ground five or six times; then you would have defeated Aram and completely destroyed it. But now you will defeat it only three times.” Elisha died and was buried. ‭‭2 Kings‬ ‭13‬:‭14‬-‭20a‬ ‭...

And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭6‬:‭5‬-‭6‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Hear the sound of my voice and come with me. Listen to my leading you. Do not be fearful. That shows your focus is not upon me, but the circumstances. Extend yourself to others. Let my healing flow forth from your words. Help them see they are safe with me.

Lord, what is man, that You care for him, the son of man, that You think of him? Man is like a breath; his days are like a passing shadow. Lord, part Your heavens and come down. Touch the mountains, and they will smoke. Flash Your lightning and scatter the foe; shoot Your arrows and rout them. Reach down from heaven; rescue me from deep water, and set me free from the grasp of foreigners whose mouths speak lies, whose right hands are deceptive. ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭144‬:‭3‬-‭8‬ ‭HCSB‬‬ Look ahead and past the coming storms. You can find your security in me. Don't become distracted by those small things. Be focused upon me and my direction for your life. I give you freedom. Walk out your dreams. I have planted them within you. Now allow them to grow. Walk forward with me.

Be serious! Be alert! Your adversary the Devil Is prowling around like a roaring lion, looking for anyone he can devour. Resist him and be firm in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are being experienced by your fellow believers throughout the world. Now the God of all grace, who called you to His eternal glory in Christ Jesus, will personally restore, establish, strengthen, and support you after you have suffered a little. The dominion belongs to Him forever. Amen. ‭‭1 Peter‬ ‭5‬:‭8‬-‭11‬ ‭HCSB‬‬ Do not fear the darkness of the enemy. Speak life and walk securely in my way. I am there with you. I am the light. Get to know me and spend time with me. I will fill you with what you need. Ask, and I will continue to show you the way you should be going.

Now the sons of the prophets said to Elisha, “Behold now, the place before you where we are living is too limited for us. Please let us go to the Jordan and each of us take from there a beam, and let us make a place there for ourselves where we may live.” So he said, “Go.” Then one said, “Please be willing to go with your servants.” And he answered, “I shall go.” So he went with them; and when they came to the Jordan, they cut down trees. But as one was felling a beam, the axe head fell into the water; and he cried out and said, “Alas, my master! For it was borrowed.” Then the man of God said, “Where did it fall?” And when he showed him the place, he cut off a stick and threw it in there, and made the iron float. He said, “Take it up for yourself.” So he put out his hand and took it.” ‭‭2 Kings‬ ‭6‬:‭1‬-‭7‬ ‭NASB1995 Yes, I am calling to you. Come to the front. Stand and allow my light to come over you. Do not be guided by fear, but by my voice. I am the way, in me is the life. Share ...

A man came from Baal Shalishah, bringing the man of God twenty loaves of barley bread baked from the first ripe grain, along with some Heads of new grain. “Give it to the people to eat,” Elisha said. “How can I set this before a hundred men?” his servant asked. But Elisha answered, “Give it to the people to eat. For this is what the Lord says: ‘They will eat and have some left over.’ ” Then he set it before them, and they ate and had some left over, according to the word of the Lord. ‭‭2 Kings‬ ‭4‬:‭42‬-‭44‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Stop. Don't ignore them. Read the signs all about you. You are not alone. Ask for help. I am here for you. I can multiply to supply what you need. Look upward to me. Look into my eyes.
