the FireCarrier

When evening came, Jesus arrived with the Twelve. And while they were reclining and eating, Jesus said, “Truly I tell you, one of you who is eating with Me will betray Me.” They began to be grieved and to ask Him one after another, “Surely not I?” He answered, “It is one of the Twelve— the one who is dipping his hand into the bowl with Me. The Son of Man will go just as it is written about Him, but woe to that man by whom He is betrayed! It would be better for him if he had not been born.” While they were eating, Jesus took bread, spoke a blessing and broke it, and gave it to the disciples, saying, “Take it; this is My body.” Then He took the cup, gave thanks, and gave it to them, and they all drank from it. He said to them, “This is My blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many. Truly I tell you, I will no longer drink of the fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it anew in the kingdom of God.” ‭‭Mark‬ ‭14‬:‭17‬-‭25‬ (‭BSB) Come. Sit with me. Receive the healing you n...

Then the Lord said to Moses, “Speak to Aaron and tell him: ‘When you set up the seven lamps, they are to light the area in front of the lampstand.’” And Aaron did so; he set up the lamps facing toward the front of the lampstand, just as the Lord had commanded Moses. This is how the lampstand was constructed: it was made of hammered gold from its base to its blossoms, fashioned according to the pattern the Lord had shown Moses.” ‭‭Numbers‬ ‭8‬:‭1‬-‭4‬ ‭(BSB) Turn about. Let your strength come from me. ‬‬I am there. Do not be reluctant, but use what I have supplied for you. Learn my names. Stand within them .

Then the Lord said to Moses, “Tell Aaron and his sons to bless the people of Israel with this special blessing: ‘May the Lord bless you and protect you. May the Lord smile on you and be gracious to you. May the Lord show you his favor and give you his peace.’ Whenever Aaron and his sons bless the people of Israel in my name, I myself will bless them.” ‭‭Numbers‬ ‭6‬:‭22‬-‭27‬ ‭(NLT‬‬)

Whenever Moses went into the Tabernacle to speak with the Lord, he heard the voice speaking to him from between the two cherubim above the Ark’s cover—the place of atonement—that rests on the Ark of the Covenant. The Lord spoke to him from there. ‭‭Numbers‬ ‭7‬:‭89‬ ‭(NLT‬‬) Yes, I am speaking to you. Follow the instructions I have given you, as simple as they may seem. My Words are life. Share them as they were shared with you. Walk forward. Receive my peace.

And the Holy Spirit helps us in our weakness. For example, we don’t know what God wants us to pray for. But the Holy Spirit prays for us with groanings that cannot be expressed in words. And the Father who knows all hearts knows what the Spirit is saying, for the Spirit pleads for us believers in harmony with God’s own will. ‭‭Romans‬ ‭8‬:‭26‬-‭27‬ ‭(NLT‬‬) Do not fear the approaching storms. Stand firm with me. Draw closer and stand beneath my wings. Pray. Call upon my name. I am the LORD almighty.

Jesus replied, I assure you, no one can enter the Kingdom of God without being born of water and the Spirit. Humans can reproduce only human life, but the Holy Spirit gives birth to spiritual life. So don’t be surprised when I say, ‘You must be born again.’ The wind blows wherever it wants. Just as you can hear the wind but can’t tell where it comes from or where it is going, so you can’t explain how people are born of the Spirit. ‭‭John‬ ‭3‬:‭5‬-‭8‬ ‭(NLT) Listen for my guiding voice in your walk this day. I have much to import to you. Follow my direction and receive my peace. I will bring change as it is needed for you to accomplish what I have for you. My peace is here. Follow my way .

The Israelites will camp according to their divisions, each man in his camp, and each man by his standard. But the Levites must camp around the tabernacle of the testimony, so that the Lord’s anger will not fall on the Israelite community. The Levites are responsible for the care of the tabernacle of the testimony. The Israelites did according to all that the Lord commanded Moses – that is what they did. ‭‭Numbers‬ ‭1‬:‭52‬-‭54‬ (‭NET)‬‬ You are mine. I have picked you out and washed you. Your sins are removed by His death and the resurrection. You have been washed and are called to  walk with me. Listen for my direction.

But in those days, after that suffering, the sun will be darkened and the moon will not give its light; the stars will be falling from heaven, and the powers in the heavens will be shaken. Then everyone will see the Son of Man arriving in the clouds with great power and glory. Then he will send angels and they will gather his elect from the four winds, from the ends of the earth to the ends of heaven. ‭‭Mark‬ ‭13‬:‭24‬-‭27‬ ‭(NET‬‬) Do not rush, but take time and listen for my answer. Allow my peace to blanket you. I will guide you safely along the journey.

Then Jesus looked around and said to his disciples, “How hard it is for the rich to enter the kingdom of God!” The disciples were astonished at these words. But again Jesus said to them, “Children, how hard it is to enter the kingdom of God! It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter the kingdom of God.” They were even more astonished and said to one another, “Then who can be saved?” Jesus looked at them and replied, “This is impossible for mere humans, but not for God; all things are possible for God.” ‭‭Mark‬ ‭10‬:‭23‬-‭27‬ ‭(NET‬‬) Rejoice and walk in the truth set before you. Turn the page. I have given you what is needed. Now go forth. Spread the good news of forgiveness. Turn off the inner noise and listen for me. Allow new ways to spring forth. Leave behind the inner fears and know my heart. I will reveal myself to you each day.

Those who live in the shelter of the Most High will find rest in the shadow of the Almighty. This I declare about the Lord: He alone is my refuge, my place of safety; he is my God, and I trust him. For he will rescue you from every trap and protect you from deadly disease. He will cover you with his feathers. He will shelter you with his wings. His faithful promises are your armor and protection. ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭91‬:‭1‬-‭4‬ ‭(NLT‬‬) Whether you are looking forward or looking back, you will find me. I am there. My finger prints are there. As you listen to the sounds about you, now you can hear me. I am speaking my ways to you, granting you protection. Don't react in fear but seek me. Follow the way I have imprinted for you. I have implanted my ways within you. Be secure.

You can hear me clearly. Stop listening to those other voices which mislead you. They bring lies and accusations. They are loud and controlling. They are not from me. Believe those things I have spoken to you and over you in the past. Their truth is from me. I remain here for you.

As they were walking along, someone said to Jesus, “I will follow you wherever you go.” But Jesus replied, “Foxes have dens to live in, and birds have nests, but the Son of Man has no place even to lay his head.” He said to another person, “Come, follow me.” The man agreed, but he said, “Lord, first let me return home and bury my father.” But Jesus told him, “Let the spiritually dead bury their own dead! Your duty is to go and preach about the Kingdom of God.” Another said, “Yes, Lord, I will follow you, but first let me say good-bye to my family.” But Jesus told him, “Anyone who puts a hand to the plow and then looks back is not fit for the Kingdom of God.”” ‭‭Luke‬ ‭9‬:‭57‬-‭62‬ (‭NLT)‬‬ I speak in various ways to my people. Even now I am speaking my heart to you. Wait for me. Allow my Spirit to fill and guide you in your journey. Yes, you too have been called. Follow the way I have shown you to be going. I will bring redirection when it is time. Until then, walk secure with me.

Quiet yourself from the noises of your day. Allow me to reach in and release healing. I will touch those spots and bring wholeness. Do not tire. I am not done. Continue with me. Soak in the truth and direction of my words. Cry out to me believing I will answer.

One night the Lord spoke to Paul in a vision and told him, “Don’t be afraid! Speak out! Don’t be silent! For I am with you, and no one will attack and harm you, for many people in this city belong to me.” So Paul stayed there for the next year and a half, teaching the word of God. ‭‭Acts of the Apostles‬ ‭18‬:‭9‬-‭11‬ (‭NLT) Look back. See those places and faces I have placed along your journey. Yet there are more to come. There will be new faces and situations for you to come upon. Know I will be yet with you in those times. Walk forward. I am with you.

So Joseph got up and returned to the land of Israel with Jesus and his mother. But when he learned that the new ruler of Judea was Herod’s son Archelaus, he was afraid to go there. Then, after being warned in a dream, he left for the region of Galilee. So the family went and lived in a town called Nazareth. This fulfilled what the prophets had said: He will be called a Nazarene. ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭2‬:‭21‬-‭23‬ ‭(NLT) As you relook at things consider this, I have guided you and will continue to guide you and protect you. Walk with me. I have and will continue to open ways for you to walk with me. Put aside your fear and rejection. Come again and fly in the heavens. I will show you what you need to see, to grow in my way of love.

This is the meaning of the parable: The seed is God’s word. The seeds that fell on the footpath represent those who hear the message, only to have the devil come and take it away from their hearts and prevent them from believing and being saved. The seeds on the rocky soil represent those who hear the message and receive it with joy. But since they don’t have deep roots, they believe for a while, then they fall away when they face temptation. The seeds that fell among the thorns represent those who hear the message, but all too quickly the message is crowded out by the cares and riches and pleasures of this life. And so they never grow into maturity. And the seeds that fell on the good soil represent honest, good-hearted people who hear God’s word, cling to it, and patiently produce a huge harvest.” ‭‭Luke‬ ‭8‬:‭11‬-‭15‬ ‭(NLT) You were created in my image. Allow me to direct you in this maze of life. Step forth in faith, as it is time for you to participate with me. Be active in doing...

I decided, “I will watch what I say and make sure I do not sin with my tongue. I will put a muzzle over my mouth while in the presence of an evil man.” I was stone silent; I held back the urge to speak. My frustration grew; my anxiety intensified. As I thought about it, I became impatient. Finally I spoke these words: “O Lord, help me understand my mortality and the brevity of life! Let me realize how quickly my life will pass! Look, you make my days short-lived, and my life span is nothing from your perspective. Surely all people, even those who seem secure, are nothing but vapor. Surely people go through life as mere ghosts. Surely they accumulate worthless wealth without knowing who will eventually haul it away.” But now, O Lord, upon what am I relying? You are my only hope! Deliver me from all my sins of rebellion! Do not make me the object of fools’ insults! I am silent and cannot open my mouth because of what you have done. Please stop wounding me! You have almost beaten me to de...

Do you not know? Have you not heard? The Lord is an eternal God, the creator of the whole earth. He does not get tired or weary; there is no limit to his wisdom. He gives strength to those who are tired; to the ones who lack power, he gives renewed energy. Even youths get tired and weary; even strong young men clumsily stumble. But those who wait for the Lord’s help find renewed strength; they rise up as if they had eagles’ wings, they run without growing weary, they walk without getting tired. ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭40‬:‭28‬-‭31‬ ‭(NET) I speak peace and direction into your life. As you ask, believing what I tell you, more will be opened to you. It is time to fly again. Spread your wings and come upward to me.

I want you to walk with the expectation that I am there with you. Speak with my voice of love. Allow my covering to be a blanket of peace to those placed in your pathway.

So they took what Moses had commanded to the front of the Meeting Tent and the whole congregation presented them and stood before the Lord. Then Moses said, “This is what the Lord has commanded you to do so that the glory of the Lord may appear to you.” ‭‭Leviticus‬ ‭9‬:‭5‬-‭6‬ ‭(NET‬‬) As you sit where you are, I am there with you. My hand of protection covers over you. Do not compare yourself with others, but compare yourself with the example I have given. Don't rush, but seek what I have for you. Inhale deeply. Fill yourself with my ways. I am there. Seek me with your whole heart.

I am leaving you with a gift—peace of mind and heart. And the peace I give is a gift the world cannot give. So don’t be troubled or afraid. Remember what I told you: I am going away, but I will come back to you again. If you really loved me, you would be happy that I am going to the Father, who is greater than I am. I have told you these things before they happen so that when they do happen, you will believe. ‭‭John‬ ‭14‬:‭27‬-‭29‬ ‭(NLT‬‬) Learn who I am .

Jesus replied, “If you only knew the gift God has for you and who you are speaking to, you would ask me, and I would give you living water.” “But sir, you don’t have a rope or a bucket,” she said, “and this well is very deep. Where would you get this living water? And besides, do you think you’re greater than our ancestor Jacob, who gave us this well? How can you offer better water than he and his sons and his animals enjoyed?” Jesus replied, “Anyone who drinks this water will soon become thirsty again. But those who drink the water I give will never be thirsty again. It becomes a fresh, bubbling spring within them, giving them eternal life.” “Please, sir,” the woman said, “give me this water! Then I’ll never be thirsty again, and I won’t have to come here to get water.” ‭‭John‬ ‭4‬:‭10‬-‭15‬ ‭(NLT) It is all right to look back upon the past. You revisit the places I have taken you, those pathways and adventures. I have been your guide. I have allowed you to experience and taste them. ...

The next day there was a wedding celebration in the village of Cana in Galilee. Jesus’ mother was there, and Jesus and his disciples were also invited to the celebration. The wine supply ran out during the festivities, so Jesus’ mother told him, “They have no more wine.” “Dear woman, that’s not our problem,” Jesus replied. “My time has not yet come.” But his mother told the servants, “Do whatever he tells you.” ‭‭John‬ ‭2‬:‭1‬-‭5‬ ‭(NLT‬‬) Turn off the inner noise and repent. It is time to be joyful. Rejoyce in the freedom that I have provided. Be filled with the goodness which comes from above, Allow my joy to be seen flowing forth from you .

In the beginning the Word already existed. The Word was with God, and the Word was God. He existed in the beginning with God. God created everything through him, and nothing was created except through him. The Word gave life to everything that was created, and his life brought light to everyone. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness can never extinguish it. ‭‭John‬ ‭1‬:‭1‬-‭5‬ ‭(NLT) You too can share in the journey. Allow others to see your light. Do not allow your light to become extinguished. Refill yourself daily. Bathe in my truth. Consume it. It is light and life. Allow it to guide you. Open yourself to me. Become what I have given you.

In the beginning the Word already existed. The Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was already with God in the beginning. Everything came into existence through him. Not one thing that exists was made without him. He was the source of life, and that life was the light for humanity. The light shines in the dark, and the dark has never extinguished it. ‭‭John‬ ‭1‬:‭1‬-‭5‬ ‭(GW‬‬) Don't rush through your day, but take time and sit with me. Allow me to teach you and share with you. Become what I have planted within you. Allow my light to shine through you in your actions of the day. I will show you the way to be going. Walk secure in my ways.

And he set up the courtyard around the tabernacle and the altar, and put the curtain at the gate of the courtyard. So Moses finished the work. Then the cloud covered the tent of meeting, and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle. Moses was not able to enter the tent of meeting because the cloud settled on it and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle. But when the cloud was lifted up from the tabernacle, the Israelites would set out on all their journeys; but if the cloud was not lifted up, then they would not journey further until the day it was lifted up. For the cloud of the Lord was on the tabernacle by day, but fire would be on it at night, in plain view of all the house of Israel, throughout all their journeys. ‭‭Exodus‬ ‭40‬:‭33‬-‭38‬ ‭(NET‬‬)

The land you’re about to enter is a land with hills and valleys, watered by rain from the sky. ‭‭Deuteronomy‬ ‭11‬:‭11 ‬( ‭GW) Do you hear me? I am calling out to you. ‬‬It is time to come closer. It is time to receive so you might give to those in need. Carefully weigh your actions and your words. Do they align with me? Draw closer to me and my ways. Allow my healing to infiltrate your life. Allow my love to soak you. Now rise up in your day. Know that I will be with you. Be my light in the darkness.

And Jesus cried out again with a loud voice and yielded up his spirit. And behold, the curtain of the temple was torn in two, from top to bottom. And the earth shook, and the rocks were split. The tombs also were opened. And many bodies of the saints who had fallen asleep were raised, and coming out of the tombs after his resurrection they went into the holy city and appeared to many. ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭27‬:‭50‬-‭53‬ ‭(ESV) Look forward. Do not be caught in the traps of the past. I am with you now. Allow me to guide you in your daily adventures. Allow me to teach you those things which will be ever-lasting. Walk forward in my truth.

Wisdom has built her house; she has carved out its seven pillars. She has prepared her meat, she has mixed her wine; she also has arranged her table. She has sent out her female servants; she calls out on the highest places of the city. “Whoever is naive, let him turn in here,” she says to those who lack understanding. “Come, eat some of my food, and drink some of the wine I have mixed. Abandon your foolish ways so that you may live, and proceed in the way of understanding.” ‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭9‬:‭1‬-‭6‬ ‭(NET) Do not live in fear. Come to my table and become whom I already see within you. Walk in the wisdom of my  pathway, speaking my truth in love.

In your prayer time wait for me. Do not rush through, but quiet your busy mind. Allow me to wash you from the dirt of your day. I will refresh and refill you with purpose and direction. Believe the words I have placed within you. Walk in my renewing.

Therefore, let all the godly pray to you while there is still time, that they may not drown in the floodwaters of judgment. For you are my hiding place; you protect me from trouble. You surround me with songs of victory. ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭32‬:‭6‬-‭7‬ (‭NLT) My word never changes. I remain the I AM. I am watching over you. My shield of protection is available to you. Call upon my name. The victory is yours as you follow my way.

So Elijah went and found Elisha son of Shaphat plowing a field. There were twelve teams of oxen in the field, and Elisha was plowing with the twelfth team. Elijah went over to him and threw his cloak across his shoulders and then walked away. Elisha left the oxen standing there, ran after Elijah, and said to him, “First let me go and kiss my father and mother good-bye, and then I will go with you!” Elijah replied, “Go on back, but think about what I have done to you.” So Elisha returned to his oxen and slaughtered them. He used the wood from the plow to build a fire to roast their flesh. He passed around the meat to the townspeople, and they all ate. Then he went with Elijah as his assistant. ‭‭1 Kings‬ ‭19‬:‭19‬-‭21‬ ‭(NLT‬‬)

Then, with great skill and care, make a chestpiece to be worn for seeking a decision from God. Make it to match the ephod, using finely woven linen embroidered with gold and with blue, purple, and scarlet thread. Make the chestpiece of a single piece of cloth folded to form a pouch nine inches square. Mount four rows of gemstones on it. The first row will contain a red carnelian, a pale-green peridot, and an emerald. The second row will contain a turquoise, a blue lapis lazuli, and a white moonstone. The third row will contain an orange jacinth, an agate, and a purple amethyst. The fourth row will contain a blue-green beryl, an onyx, and a green jasper. All these stones will be set in gold filigree. Each stone will represent one of the twelve sons of Israel, and the name of that tribe will be engraved on it like a seal. To attach the chestpiece to the ephod, make braided cords of pure gold thread. ‭‭Exodus‬ ‭28‬:‭15‬-‭22‬ ‭(NLT‬‬) Stop. Examine what you are doing and handover your frus...

Peter and the others had fallen asleep. When they woke up, they saw Jesus’ glory and the two men standing with him. As Moses and Elijah were starting to leave, Peter, not even knowing what he was saying, blurted out, “Master, it’s wonderful for us to be here! Let’s make three shelters as memorials— one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.” But even as he was saying this, a cloud overshadowed them, and terror gripped them as the cloud covered them. Then a voice from the cloud said, “This is my Son, my Chosen One. Listen to him.” When the voice finished, Jesus was there alone. They didn’t tell anyone at that time what they had seen. ‭‭Luke‬ ‭9‬:‭32‬-‭36‬ ‭(NLT) Reach out for me and not the missing or broken pieces of your past. I am with you. Reach for me in each part of your day. Within me you will find the wholeness you are searching for.

Out of the stump of David’s family will grow a shoot— yes, a new Branch bearing fruit from the old root. And the Spirit of the Lord will rest on him— the Spirit of wisdom and understanding, the Spirit of counsel and might, the Spirit of knowledge and the fear of the Lord. ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭11‬:‭1‬-‭2‬ ‭(NLT) As you look up and outward imagine me looking at you. Yes, I am smiling. My gaze is upon you throughout each day of your journey. Leave your fears and anxiety upon my altar. Become secure in me. I have paid the price. Come and walk upon the water with me.

After his baptism, as Jesus came up out of the water, the heavens were opened and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and settling on him. And a voice from heaven said, “This is my dearly loved Son, who brings me great joy.” ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭3‬:‭16‬-‭17‬ ‭(NLT‬‬) Listen for my words, my direction, as you move throughout your day. Don't hesitate, but become responsive. Allow my healing to fill you with what you need. My light will show you the way to go. Follow me.

Moses told the elders, “Stay here and wait for us until we come back. Aaron and Hur are here with you. If anyone has a dispute while I am gone, consult with them.” Then Moses climbed up the mountain, and the cloud covered it. And the glory of the Lord settled down on Mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it for six days. On the seventh day the Lord called to Moses from inside the cloud. To the Israelites at the foot of the mountain, the glory of the Lord appeared at the summit like a consuming fire. Then Moses disappeared into the cloud as he climbed higher up the mountain. He remained on the mountain forty days and forty nights. ‭‭Exodus‬ ‭24‬:‭14‬-‭18‬ ‭(NLT )

Put aside the distractions and excuses. At this very location I am here for you. Draw closer. Learn my heart. Identify in my love for you. Grow deeper in my Word. Within it you will find life and the answers you need. My protection is available. My direction will lead you on the pathway .

All the people were seeing the thundering and the lightning, and heard the sound of the horn, and saw the mountain smoking – and when the people saw it they trembled with fear and kept their distance. They said to Moses, “You speak to us and we will listen, but do not let God speak with us, lest we die.” Moses said to the people, “Do not fear, for God has come to test you, that the fear of him may be before you so that you do not sin.” The people kept their distance, but Moses drew near the thick darkness where God was. ‭‭Exodus‬ ‭20‬:‭18‬-‭21‬ ‭(NET‬‬) Do not fear. but draw near to me. You are forgiven and washed in the blood of my son. I have come so you would know my love. Recognize me and walk in the light of my pathway. Draw nearer. The price has been paid.

Amalek came and attacked Israel in Rephidim. So Moses said to Joshua, “Choose some of our men and go out, fight against Amalek. Tomorrow I will stand on top of the hill with the staff of God in my hand.” So Joshua fought against Amalek just as Moses had instructed him; and Moses and Aaron and Hur went up to the top of the hill. Whenever Moses would raise his hands, then Israel prevailed, but whenever he would rest his hands, then Amalek prevailed. When the hands of Moses became heavy, they took a stone and put it under him, and Aaron and Hur held up his hands, one on one side and one on the other, and so his hands were steady until the sun went down. So Joshua destroyed Amalek and his army with the sword. The Lord said to Moses, “Write this as a memorial in the book, and rehearse it in Joshua’s hearing; for I will surely wipe out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven. Moses built an altar, and he called it “The Lord is my Banner,” for he said, “For a hand was lifted up to the thr...

Don’t believe the lies you already sense this morning. Come. Seek me. I am there right in front of you, waiting for you to follow me. I have a message for you. Are you ready to get up and seek it? My truth and light remain. They are available to you. Follow me I will lead you into the adventure.

Jesus answered them, “I tell you the truth, if you have faith and do not doubt, not only will you do what was done to the fig tree, but even if you say to this mountain, ‘Be lifted up and thrown into the sea,’ it will happen. And whatever you ask in prayer, if you believe, you will receive.” ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭21‬:‭21‬-‭22‬ ‭(NET) Do not rush through your day, but find time and sit with me. Unload your apprehensions and fears. Allow me to wash over you, cleansing the dirt of your day. Focus upon me. I will be there with you. I am the security you need.

As they were leaving Jericho, a large crowd followed them. Two blind men were sitting by the road. When they heard that Jesus was passing by, they shouted, “Have mercy on us, Lord, Son of David!” The crowd scolded them to get them to be quiet. But they shouted even more loudly, “Lord, have mercy on us, Son of David!” Jesus stopped, called them, and said, “What do you want me to do for you?” They said to him, “Lord, let our eyes be opened.” Moved with compassion, Jesus touched their eyes. Immediately they received their sight and followed him. ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭20‬:‭29‬-‭34‬ ‭(NET) You too should be moved with compassion. Reach outward and release my healing. Touch others with the compassion I have shared with you. Grow in my likeness. Move forward with me.

Then Moses called all the elders of Israel together and said to them, “Go, pick out a lamb or young goat for each of your families, and slaughter the Passover animal. Drain the blood into a basin. Then take a bundle of hyssop branches and dip it into the blood. Brush the hyssop across the top and sides of the doorframes of your houses. And no one may go out through the door until morning. For the Lord will pass through the land to strike down the Egyptians. But when he sees the blood on the top and sides of the doorframe, the Lord will pass over your home. He will not permit his death angel to enter your house and strike you down. Remember, these instructions are a permanent law that you and your descendants must observe forever. When you enter the land the Lord has promised to give you, you will continue to observe this ceremony. ‭‭Exodus‬ ‭12‬:‭21‬-‭25‬ ‭(NLT) In whatever direction you may look, or situation you may find yourself, rely upon me. I am watching over you. I am drawin...

Then Noah built an altar to the Lord, and there he sacrificed as burnt offerings the animals and birds that had been approved for that purpose. And the Lord was pleased with the aroma of the sacrifice and said to himself, “I will never again curse the ground because of the human race, even though everything they think or imagine is bent toward evil from childhood. I will never again destroy all living things. ‭‭Genesis‬ ‭8‬:‭20‬-‭21‬ ‭(NLT)

Meanwhile, the fire on the altar must be kept burning; it must never go out. Each morning the priest will add fresh wood to the fire and arrange the burnt offering on it. He will then burn the fat of the peace offerings on it. Remember, the fire must be kept burning on the altar at all times. It must never go out. ‭‭Leviticus‬ ‭6‬:‭12‬-‭13‬ ‭(NLT‬‬) Come and sit with me. Leave you fears and frustrations upon my altar. Think back at the times I was there for you. My word is unchanged. Continue to walk in my way. Allow me to reopen your closed pathways, Come again and fly with me.

The Lord says, I will rescue those who love me. I will protect those who trust in my name. When they call on me, I will answer; I will be with them in trouble. I will rescue and honor them. I will reward them with a long life and give them my salvation. ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭91‬:‭14‬-‭16‬ ‭(NLT‬‬) As you sit where you are, close your eyes and receive my peace. Call out to me. Allow my healing to overflow you and your thoughts. Grow deeper in my Word. Learn of the truths it contains. Learn how to express them in your life and contact with others. Trust in me. I have paid the price. I am your protection.

He called a little child and had him stand among them. Then he said to them, “I can guarantee this truth: Unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Whoever becomes like this little child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. And whoever welcomes a child like this in my name welcomes me. ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭18‬:‭2‬-‭5‬ ‭(GW‬‬) What do you see when you look about? Do not be frightened, but learn to put your trust in me and the truth which I speak. I will wash you. My blood has paid the cost for all. Now bring them to me. Allow my love to cover them.

They will never believe me or listen to me!” Moses protested. “They will say, ‘The Lord didn’t appear to you.’ ” Then the Lord asked him, “What’s that in your hand?” He answered, “A shepherd’s staff.” The Lord said, “Throw it on the ground.” When Moses threw it on the ground, it became a snake, and he ran away from it. Then the Lord said to Moses, “Reach out and grab the snake by its tail.” He reached out and grabbed it, and it turned back into a staff as he held it. The Lord explained, “This is to convince the people that the Lord God of their ancestors, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, appeared to you.” The Lord said to him, “Put your hand inside your shirt.” So Moses did this, and when he took his hand out, it had a skin disease. It looked as flaky as snow. “Now put your hand back inside your shirt,” the Lord said. Moses put it back, and when he took it out this time, it was healthy again like the rest of his body. Then the Lord said, “If they won’t believe you or pay attention...

Jesus said to them, “I watched Satan fall from heaven like lightning. I have given you the authority to trample snakes and scorpions and to destroy the enemy’s power. Nothing will hurt you. However, don’t be happy that evil spirits obey you. Be happy that your names are written in heaven.” ‭‭Luke‬ ‭10‬:‭18‬-‭20‬ ‭(GW‬‬) Stop what you are doing and be listening. Yes, listen for the sounds of my approaching. I am drawing you closer to me and my ways. Learn to understand and walk in my ways. You are under my shroud of protection. Walk with me. Speak life in my authority.

It is time for you to again reach out to me. Be outstretched so I may wash over you. I will cleanse you and place you on the pathway. Be refilled with me and walk forward. I will whisper my directions to you. Be on the course I have shown you in your night dreams. They will guide you as you continue in my ways. Feed yourself with my word. Allow my refreshing and refilling to strengthen you.

After leaving Lebanon, Jesus went to Lake Galilee and climbed a hill nearby and sat down. Then huge crowds of people streamed up the hill, bringing with them the lame, blind, deformed, mute, and many others in need of healing. They laid them at Jesus’ feet and he healed them all. And the crowds marveled with amazement, astounded over the things they were witnessing with their own eyes! The lame were walking, the mute were speaking, the crippled were made well, and the blind could see. For three days everyone celebrated the miracles as they exalted and praised the God of Israel! ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭15‬:‭29‬-‭31‬ ‭(TPT‬‬) You too can come to me and receive your healing. Turn off the noise of your everyday life and listen for my guiding. Don't hesitate, but seek me. I am speaking to your heart. I am placing clear direction for you. Trust me. Move forward in what you hear me directing you. Be bold n my love. Speak my message to those you will meet.

So Israel began his journey, taking with him all that he had. When he came to Beer Sheba he offered sacrifices to the God of his father Isaac. God spoke to Israel in a vision during the night and said, “Jacob, Jacob!” He replied, “Here I am!” He said, “I am God, the God of your father. Do not be afraid to go down to Egypt, for I will make you into a great nation there. I will go down with you to Egypt and I myself will certainly bring you back from there. Joseph will close your eyes. ‭‭Genesis‬ ‭46‬:‭1‬-‭4‬ ‭(NET‬‬) Follow me where I will lead you. If you listen you will hear my specific instructions. Continue in your journey. You will be surrounded by me. I will be there before and behind you. Continue to follow. Be on the trail of the last directions left for you.

On hearing this, Jesus slipped away privately by boat to be alone. But when the crowds discovered he had sailed away, they emerged from all the nearby towns and followed him on foot. So when Jesus landed he had a huge crowd waiting for him. Seeing so many  people, his heart was deeply moved with compassion  toward them, so he healed all the sick who were  in the crowd.       ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭14‬:‭13‬-‭14‬ ‭(TPT‬‬) Come and sit with me. Feel my compassion for the poor and the lost ones. Reach out to them in my name and release healing. Allow them to know my love and caring remains. Allow my compassion to be seem through your life and actions. Be active with me guiding you. I will continue to supply what is needed.

Each time he said, “My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness.” So now I am glad to boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ can work through me. ‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭12‬:‭9‬ ‭(NLT‬‬) Set aside time and spend it with me. Don't be care-distracted, but sit with your eyes closed and see if I don't present myself. Allow me to wash away the stain of your day. Learn to seek me each part of your day. I will be there with you. I will speak healing and direction. I am all you need. Spend your time with me. Receive what I have for you.

As Jesus went on a little farther, he saw James and John, the sons of Zebedee. They were in a boat preparing their nets to go fishing. He immediately called them, and they left their father Zebedee and the hired men in the boat and followed Jesus. ‭‭Mark‬ ‭1‬:‭19‬-‭20‬ ‭(GW‬‬) I called them, just as I called you to follow me. Do not be discouraged, but continue following me. Put aside the distractions and listen. Feed upon my Word. Grow strong in it. I will guide you in the journey.

Timothy, my child, I’m giving you this order about the prophecies that are still coming to you: Use these prophecies in faith and with a clear conscience to fight this noble war. Some have refused to let their faith guide their conscience and their faith has been destroyed like a wrecked ship. ‭‭1 Timothy‬ ‭1‬:‭18‬-‭19‬ ‭(GW‬‬) Set aside the distractions which would keep you from seeking me. Listen for my guiding to be with you. The enemy will give you lies of failure. I am truth. I am the only way to life. I have a plan for you, things for you to be doing. Learn to walk securely in the way I have for you.

All of your people will be godly; they will possess the land permanently. I will plant them like a shoot; they will be the product of my labor, through whom I reveal my splendor. The least of you will multiply into a thousand; the smallest of you will become a large nation. When the right time comes, I the Lord will quickly do this! ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭60‬:‭21‬-‭22‬ ‭(NET) What have I spoken to you? Bring forth those thoughts and truths I have implanted. It is time. Let them come out for their purpose. Look up. I am here with you. Reach beyond what you see with your natural eyes and look into my time and space.

Protect me, O God, because I take refuge in you. I said to the Lord, “You are my Lord. Without you, I have nothing good.” Those who lead holy lives on earth are the noble ones who fill me with joy. Those who quickly chase after other gods multiply their sorrows. I will not pour out their sacrificial offerings of blood or use my lips to speak their names. The Lord is my inheritance and my cup. You are the one who determines my destiny. Your boundary lines mark out pleasant places for me. Indeed, my inheritance is something beautiful. I will praise the Lord, who advises me. My conscience warns me at night. I always keep the Lord in front of me. When he is by my side, I cannot be moved. That is why my heart is glad and my soul rejoices. My body rests securely because you do not abandon my soul to the grave or allow your holy one to decay. You make the path of life known to me. Complete joy is in your presence. Pleasures are by your side forever. ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭16‬:‭1‬-‭11‬ ‭(GW‬‬)

God appeared to Jacob again after he returned from Paddan Aram and blessed him. God said to him, “Your name is Jacob, but your name will no longer be called Jacob; Israel will be your name.” So God named him Israel. Then God said to him, “I am the sovereign God. Be fruitful and multiply! A nation – even a company of nations – will descend from you; kings will be among your descendants! The land I gave to Abraham and Isaac I will give to you. To your descendants I will also give this land.” Then God went up from the place where he spoke with him. So Jacob set up a sacred stone pillar in the place where God spoke with him. He poured out a drink offering on it, and then he poured oil on it. Jacob named the place where God spoke with him Bethel. ‭‭Genesis‬ ‭35‬:‭9‬-‭15‬ ‭(NET) It is time for you to re-open your spiritual eyes. Allow me to take you places and show you things. Yes, come fly with me again. Set aside your fear and be with me. It is time for you to be re-established in me and m...

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was fully God. The Word was with God in the beginning. All things were created by him, and apart from him not one thing was created that has been created. In him was life, and the life was the light of mankind. And the light shines on in the darkness, but the darkness has not mastered it. ‭‭John‬ ‭1‬:‭1‬-‭5‬ ‭(NET‬‬) Spend yourself with me. Do not be in a hurry, but sit in my presence. Allow my forgiveness to cover you. My healing is available Soak in my love. Leave your impatience in the past. Look forward. I am there awaiting. I will show you what you need. I am your provision. Spend time with me.

I am sending you out like sheep surrounded by wolves, so be wise as serpents and innocent as doves. ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭10‬:‭16‬ (‭NET)‬‬ Despite what seems all about, you are not powerless when you remain with me. My ruth remains. Follow me in the pathway of life. Learn to speak in love. Heal those hurting and in need of me. Show them what I have shown you. I am life.

Whenever they hand you over for trial, do not worry about how to speak or what to say, for what you should say will be given to you at that time. For it is not you speaking, but the Spirit of your Father speaking through you. Brother will hand over brother to death, and a father his child. Children will rise against parents and have them put to death. And you will be hated by everyone because of my name. But the one who endures to the end will be saved. ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭10‬:‭19‬-‭22‬ ‭(NET‬‬) Pause your usual activity and turn your heart to me. Listen quietly for my Spirit. He will quench the noise. Do not fear but be filled. Be bold and courageous in walking out the plans I have placed for you to achieve. Follow my ways, enduring in truth and my light .

As Jesus went on from there, two blind men followed him, shouting, “Have mercy on us, Son of David!” When he went into the house, the blind men came to him. Jesus said to them, “Do you believe that I am able to do this?” They said to him, “Yes, Lord.” Then he touched their eyes saying, “Let it be done for you according to your faith.” And their eyes were opened. Then Jesus sternly warned them, “See that no one knows about this.” But they went out and spread the news about him throughout that entire region. ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭9‬:‭27‬-‭31‬ ‭(NET) Learn from me. I am life. Consume my written word. Within it is liberty. Be moving ever-nearer to me. Believe in me and become active in what I have for you to be doing. Consume my written Word. Allow its' truth to become your standard .

Then Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan River and was led by the Spirit in the wilderness, where for forty days he endured temptations from the devil. He ate nothing during those days, and when they were completed, he was famished. ‭‭Luke‬ ‭4‬:‭1‬-‭2‬ (‭NET)‬‬ Sit quietly and listen. I will communicate with you. I will prepare your heart. Don't be in a rush, but spend time with me. Allow my mercy to cover you and healing to come upon you. In these times you will learn what is important. I will teach you what you should be doing.

The Lord owns the earth and all it contains, the world and all who live in it. For he set its foundation upon the seas, and established it upon the ocean currents. Who is allowed to ascend the mountain of the Lord? Who may go up to his holy dwelling place? The one whose deeds are blameless and whose motives are pure, who does not lie, or make promises with no intention of keeping them. Such godly people are rewarded by the Lord, and vindicated by the God who delivers them. Such purity characterizes the people who seek his favor, Jacob’s descendants, who pray to him. (Selah) Look up, you gates! Rise up, you eternal doors! Then the majestic king will enter! Who is this majestic king? The Lord who is strong and mighty! The Lord who is mighty in battle! Look up, you gates! Rise up, you eternal doors! Then the majestic king will enter! Who is this majestic king? The Lord who commands armies! He is the majestic king! (Selah) ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭24‬:‭1‬-‭10‬ ‭(NET‬)‬

As he got into the boat, his disciples followed him. And a great storm developed on the sea so that the waves began to swamp the boat. But he was asleep. So they came and woke him up saying, “Lord, save us! We are about to die!” But he said to them, “Why are you cowardly, you people of little faith?” Then he got up and rebuked the winds and the sea, and it was dead calm. And the men were amazed and said, “What sort of person is this? Even the winds and the sea obey him!” ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭8‬:‭23‬-‭27‬ ‭(NET‬‬) Come with me wherever I would call you to be going. Do not be influenced by fear, but stay with me. Be ready for the testing. It can strengthen you and grant you direction. Don't allow yourself to be influenced by the oncoming waves, but allow my influence to become your strength and direction. Yes, come with me even this day.

Let the name of God be praised forever and ever, for wisdom and power belong to him. He changes times and seasons, deposing some kings and establishing others. He gives wisdom to the wise; he imparts knowledge to those with understanding; he reveals deep and hidden things. He knows what is in the darkness, and light resides with him. ‭‭Daniel‬ ‭2‬:‭20‬-‭22‬ (‭NET)

When you seek me in prayer and worship, you will find me available to you. If you seek me with all your heart and soul, ‭‭Jeremiah‬ ‭29‬:‭13‬ ‭(NET‬‬) Don't be too busy. Recognize me and my ways. I am here with you. Stop and receive what I have for you. It is time for you to open your night-dreams and dwell in their message. Look across the landscape. What do you see? There are pathways for you to take. There are situations yet for you to conquer. Remember to look for me and I will show myself.

Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened for you. For everyone who asks receives, and the one who seeks finds, and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened. ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭7‬:‭7‬-‭9‬ (‭NET) What are you asking for? Does it align with my heart for others? Does it reflect my way? Show me those broken and hurting. Follow the examples of my life. Walk along-side me and reach the ones I will show you. Speak life to them and share my heart.‬‬ Open the doors. Be who I've called you  to become.

Those who are victorious will sit with me on my throne, just as I was victorious and sat with my Father on his throne. ‭‭Revelation‬ ‭3‬:‭21‬ ‭(NLT‬‬) Come and sit with me. Allow my presence to warm and change you. I will wash off the dirt clouding your past. I will provide the clear vision you need. Allow my ways to become the markers for where you should be. I am ever-present for you, if you seek me.

Now this is the basis for judging: that the light has come into the world and people loved the darkness rather than the light, because their deeds were evil. For everyone who does evil deeds hates the light and does not come to the light, so that their deeds will not be exposed. But the one who practices the truth comes to the light, so that it may be plainly evident that his deeds have been done in God. ‭‭John‬ ‭3‬:‭19‬-‭21‬ ‭(NET) Quiet yourself and listen for me. Do not allow the noise of the enemy to become your guide. Continue to follow me. I am life and the satisfaction you are seeking. I am not disappointed with you. I look at your heart and I still smile. You stand tall with me.

After Lot had gone, the Lord said to Abram, “Look as far as you can see in every direction— north and south, east and west. I am giving all this land, as far as you can see, to you and your descendants as a permanent possession. And I will give you so many descendants that, like the dust of the earth, they cannot be counted! Go and walk through the land in every direction, for I am giving it to you.” So Abram moved his camp to Hebron and settled near the oak grove belonging to Mamre. There he built another altar to the Lord. ‭‭Genesis‬ ‭13‬:‭14‬-‭18‬ ‭(NLT‬‬) Look for me. I will speak to your heart with my written word. My truth will direct and protect you. Move forward in the faith planted within you. My word will sustain you in good times and bad. Grow bold.

Nevertheless, that time of darkness and despair will not go on forever. The land of Zebulun and Naphtali will be humbled, but there will be a time in the future when Galilee of the Gentiles, which lies along the road that runs between the Jordan and the sea, will be filled with glory. The people who walk in darkness will see a great light. For those who live in a land of deep darkness, a light will shine. ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭9‬:‭1‬-‭2‬ ‭(NLT‬‬) Take time. Consider the day you met me, As you gave your life to me. I blessed you then and I bless you now, My word of life is yet here for you. Take the next step forward, believing I am yet with you. Go to the spot I have prepared for you and be busy in what I told you. Do not move on without my direction. Grow firm and true in what I have placed within you. My word is life.

Simon Peter told them, “I am going fishing.” “We will go with you,” they said. So they went out and got into the boat, but caught nothing that night.” ‭‭John‬ ‭21‬:‭3‬ ‭(BSB) Follow me. It's a simple, yet life changing direction for you, Follow Me. I will show  you the way. I am the way you see things. Allow my truth to lead you as you follow me.

Be where I would have you be. I will show you things I would have you see. I will open the eyes of your heart. My understanding will flow to you. Silence the sounds and voices within your mind. Learn to recognize my voice of inner direction. I am with you. Learn to take time to listen for me.

Do not call to mind the former things; pay no attention to the things of old. Behold, I am about to do something new; even now it is coming. Do you not see it? Indeed, I will make a way in the wilderness and streams in the desert. ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭43‬:‭18‬-‭19‬ ‭(BSB‬‬) Yes, today as you read this you will clearly hear me. You will become increasingly aware of my ways for you. Leave behind the anger and fear the enemy has planted to taint you. I am talking with you. I will open the ways which were meant for you to go. I will show you my heart and direction .

For the Lord watches over the path of the godly, but the path of the wicked leads to destruction. ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭1‬:‭6‬ ‭(NLT) Through me you have the opportunity for new beginnings. A time to restart, leaving the past behind you. Those past failures were but steppingstones for growth into what you were created to become. Step forward with me. I am watching-over you.
