Hear Me

-
I am sending you out like sheep among wolves. Therefore be as shrewd as snakes and as innocent as doves. Be on your guard; you will be handed over to the local councils and be flogged in the synagogues. On my account you will be brought before governors and kings as witnesses to them and to the Gentiles. But when they arrest you, do not worry about what to say or how to say it. At that time you will be given what to say, for it will not be you speaking, but the Spirit of your Father speaking through you. ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭10‬:‭16‬-‭20‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Don't turn back, but keep moving forward in the direction I have placed within you. I have made you unique, different from others, yet in my lineage. Listen, and you will hear me encouraging you. I am leading you  in the direction to be going.

Looking Ahead

-
Therefore Jesus said again, Very truly I tell you, I am the gate for the sheep. All who have come before me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep have not listened to them. I am the gate; whoever enters through me will be saved. They will come in and go out, and find pasture. The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full. I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. ‭‭John‬ ‭10‬:‭7‬-‭11‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Look ahead. See through the tangled messes and missed dreams. Learn my Word and the direction it holds for you. I was there before the beginning and will yet be there after the worldly end. Do not fear but continue to follow me. Look ahead, I am there to protect and lead you.

With You

-
LORD, I know that people’s lives are not their own; it is not for them to direct their steps. Discipline me, LORD, but only in due measure— not in your anger, or you will reduce me to nothing. Pour out your wrath on the nations that do not acknowledge you, on the peoples who do not call on your name. For they have devoured Jacob; they have devoured him completely and destroyed his homeland. ‭‭Jeremiah‬ ‭10‬:‭23‬-‭25‬ ‭NIV Look for me and you will find me. I am there ever-with you. Failures are in the past. Now move forward. I am with you. I will guide you in the way I have created for you.

My Power

-
Let the message of Christ dwell among you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom through psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit, singing to God with gratitude in your hearts. And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him. ‭‭Colossians‬ ‭3‬:‭16‬-‭17‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Don't become complacent, thinking you know me nor what I wish to be doing. You will miss me. You will not hear my directions for you. I am there, within your every day. Bring me your broken past. Place it upon my altar, releasing it. Reach forward to me. My power will again surge through you.

Your Speaking

-
If I speak with human eloquence and angelic ecstasy but don’t love, I’m nothing but the creaking of a rusty gate. ‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭13‬:‭1‬‬ ‭MSG‬‬ Read my word. It is life. It reflects my love and direction for you. It is through your life that others can find my love for them. Be kind to them as I am kind to you.

Your Message?

-
Is this the message others receive from you? Let the message of Christ dwell among you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom through psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit, singing to God with gratitude in your hearts. And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him. ‭‭Colossians‬ ‭3‬:‭16‬-‭17‬ ‭NIV‬‬

The Light

-
Since you were brought back to life with Christ, focus on the things that are above— where Christ holds the honored position— the one next to God the Father on the heavenly throne. Keep your mind on things above, not on worldly things. You have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. Christ is your life. When he appears, then you, too, will appear with him in glory. ‭‭Colossians‬ ‭3‬:‭1‬-‭4‬ ‭GW I am there. Listen quietly, as I am with you. Trust the directions I have whispered for you to hear. Do not allow the enemy to cause fear to obstruct in your way. I am the light. Follow after me.

Your Attention

-
This is what the LORD says: Stand at the crossroads and look. Ask which paths are the old, reliable paths. Ask which way leads to blessings. Live that way, and find a resting place for yourselves. But you said that you wouldn’t live that way. I posted watchmen over you. Pay attention to the sound of the ram’s horn. But you said that you wouldn’t pay attention. ‭‭Jeremiah‬ ‭6‬:‭16‬-‭17‬ ‭GW‬‬ Do not rush through you day, but stop and look around you at my creation. Put aside the hurry which too often leads to anger or frustration. The trees reach upward to me. How about you? Can you learn from their leading?
