Do not be led astray, my beloved brothers. Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom is no change or shadow of turning. Of His own will He brought us forth with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of His creatures. ‭‭James‬ ‭1‬:‭16‬-‭18‬ ‭(MEV‬‬) It is time to remove wrong thinking and junk from your life. It blinds you, keeping you from your time with me. Watch for me reaching out to you. I will steady you. Refill yourself with me. Find the answers you need within my written word.

When Jesus returned, the crowd gladly received Him, for they were all waiting for Him. Then a man named Jairus, who was a ruler of the synagogue, came and fell down at Jesus’ feet, and begged Him to come to his house, for he had an only daughter, about twelve years of age, and she was dying. As He went, the people crowded Him... But when Jesus heard it, He answered him, “Do not fear. Only believe, and she will be made well.” When He came into the house, He permitted no one to go in except Peter, John and James, and the father and mother of the girl. All wept and mourned for her. But He said, “Do not weep. She is not dead but sleeping.” They laughed at Him, knowing that she was dead. But He put them all outside and took her by the hand and called, saying, “Little girl, arise.” Her spirit returned, and she arose immediately. And He told them to give her food. Her parents were astonished, but He commanded them to tell no one what had happened. ‭‭Luke‬ ‭8‬:‭40‬-‭42‬, ‭50‬-‭56‬ (‭MEV)

If a prophet or a dreamer of dreams arises among you and gives you a sign or a wonder, and the sign or the wonder comes to pass concerning that which he spoke to you, saying, “Let us go after other gods,” which you have not known, “and let us serve them,” you must not listen to the words of that prophet or that dreamer of dreams, for the Lord your God is testing you, to know whether you love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul. You must follow after the Lord your God, fear Him, and keep His commandments, obey His voice, and you must serve Him, and cling to Him. ‭‭Deuter­­onomy‬ ‭13‬:‭1‬-‭4‬ ‭(MEV‬‬) Listen to the words I have had others give to you. They contain guidance and encouragement. This is not the time to be timid or self-reflective. Stand firm. It is time to be growing deeper with me. Speak truth in love. Become more aware of me. I will lead you in my way.

As they sailed across, Jesus settled down for a nap. But soon a fierce storm came down on the lake. The boat was filling with water, and they were in real danger. The disciples went and woke him up, shouting, “Master, Master, we’re going to drown!” When Jesus woke up, he rebuked the wind and the raging waves. Suddenly the storm stopped and all was calm. Then he asked them, “Where is your faith?” The disciples were terrified and amazed. Who is this man? they asked each other. When he gives a command, even the wind and waves obey him! ‭‭Luke‬ ‭8‬:‭23‬-‭25‬ ‭(NLT) As you look about, do not feel lost or overwhelmed by circumstances. Follow what I have last placed within you. I am still leading you. Grow strong in my Word. Let it continually feed you with my purpose and direction. It will lead you in the direction you should go.

Now, Israel, what does the Lord your God require of you except to revere him, to obey all his commandments, to love him, to serve him with all your mind and being, and to keep the Lord’s commandments and statutes that I am giving you today for your own good? The heavens – indeed the highest heavens – belong to the Lord your God, as does the earth and everything in it. ‭‭Deuteronomy‬ ‭10‬:‭12‬-‭14‬ (‭NET) Take a few minutes and review your memories. What comes to mind? How does it yet cause you to feel? Healing is available. Allow forgiveness to flow from you, just as I have forgiven you.

I am the Lord, and I do not change. That is why you descendants of Jacob are not already destroyed. ‭‭Malachi‬ ‭3‬:‭6‬ ‭(NLT) Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away. ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭24‬:‭35‬ (‭NET)‬‬ Do not be impatient, but wait expectantly for me to answer. I am your unchanging answer. I will continue to guide and guard you in your journey.

Shut down the internal noise and distractions. Ignore the noise from the accuser and close your eyes. Receive from me. I will paint new pictures for you. They are to enlighten the frightened and those lost. It will show them their way to find me. Receive my joy. Grow further in the ways I have planted within you.

Soon afterward Jesus went to a town called Nain, and his disciples and a large crowd went with him. As he approached the town gate, a man who had died was being carried out, the only son of his mother (who was a widow), and a large crowd from the town was with her. When the Lord saw her, he had compassion for her and said to her, “Do not weep.” Then he came up and touched the bier, and those who carried it stood still. He said, “Young man, I say to you, get up!” So the dead man sat up and began to speak, and Jesus gave him back to his mother. ‭‭Luke‬ ‭7‬:‭11‬-‭15‬ ‭(NET‬‬) Do not be fearful. Bring me your failures. Leave them for me to bring back to life. I will direct you to the pathway of life and ways for you to begin your journey. Get up and walk with me .

Now it was during this time that Jesus went out to the mountain to pray, and he spent all night in prayer to God. When morning came, he called his disciples and chose twelve of them, whom he also named apostles ‭‭Luke‬ ‭6‬:‭12‬-‭13‬ ‭(NET‬) Do not be hesitant. bur ask me. I will make the matter clear. Move forward with the answer I provided for you. Become whom I already see within you. ‬

After Jesus called the twelve together, he gave them power and authority over all demons and to cure diseases, and he sent them out to proclaim the kingdom of God and to heal the sick. ‭‭Luke‬ ‭9‬:‭1‬-‭2‬ ‭(NET‬‬) Find yourself where you belong. Find yourself with me. I will guide you in the journey. I will instruct you in what my ways look like. You are to be my reflection for the world.

While they were camped near the Jordan River on the plains of Moab opposite Jericho, the Lord said to Moses, “Give the following instructions to the people of Israel: When you cross the Jordan River into the land of Canaan, you must drive out all the people living there. You must destroy all their carved and molten images and demolish all their pagan shrines. Take possession of the land and settle in it, because I have given it to you to occupy." ‭‭Numbers‬ ‭33‬:‭50‬-‭53‬ ‭(NLT‬‬) Come. Sit with me. Receive the healing you need. Allow my truth to grow within you. Allow me to expose self-serving untruths which have been buried beneath the years. Watch for me, for I am with you. I have more for you to explore as you grower stronger with me.

Then Jesus went to Capernaum, a town in Galilee, and taught there in the synagogue every Sabbath day. There, too, the people were amazed at his teaching, for he spoke with authority. ‭‭Luke‬ ‭4‬:‭31‬-‭32‬ ‭(NLT‬‬) You can stop your internal complaining.  I can  hear you. Release your tensions and frustration;  trust in me. My ways never change.  My spoken and written word remains true.  I am that same person.

Jesus came and told his disciples, “I have been given all authority in heaven and on earth. Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands I have given you. And be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭28‬:‭18‬-‭20‬ ‭(NLT) I am there with you. Observe those persons and things I place in your pathway. Reach out to them. Allow me to heal their wounds. speak life into the air. I will carry it far, reaching hidden places deep within you. Let there be no doubt. I am there ever-with you. Call-out to me and I will answer you. Are you ready?

What have you learned about how you respond to situations? How do you react to them? Does it bring tension or have you learned to release them to me? Grow in my ways. Listen for me to direct you.

One day Jesus called together his twelve disciples and gave them power and authority to cast out all demons and to heal all diseases. Then he sent them out to tell everyone about the Kingdom of God and to heal the sick. ‭‭Luke‬ ‭9‬:‭1‬-‭2‬ ‭(NLT‬‬) If you wish to receive a prophetic word, why not come to the source? Ask me today. I can and will provide. I speak truth and life. Today is that day you have been awaiting. Recognize this opportunity and step forward in the faith planted within you.

One day when the crowds were being baptized, Jesus himself was baptized. As he was praying, the heavens opened, and the Holy Spirit, in bodily form, descended on him like a dove. And a voice from heaven said, “You are my dearly loved Son, and you bring me great joy.” ‭‭Luke‬ ‭3‬:‭21‬-‭22‬ ‭(NLT)

So if you ignore the least commandment and teach others to do the same, you will be called the least in the Kingdom of Heaven. But anyone who obeys God’s laws and teaches them will be called great in the Kingdom of Heaven. “But I warn you— unless your righteousness is better than the righteousness of the teachers of religious law and the Pharisees, you will never enter the Kingdom of Heaven!” ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭5‬:‭19‬-‭20‬ ‭(NLT‬‬) Reach outward and finish the small change. Do not be hesitant. You will recognize what need be done. Follow what you sense I am directing you to be doing. Walk in my joy as you move across your day.

For this is how God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life. God sent his Son into the world not to judge the world, but to save the world through him. ‭‭John‬ ‭3‬:‭16‬-‭17‬ ‭(NLT‬‬) Don't allow shame or misconceptions to keep you from me. Come back into right relationship. You are forgiven. Now be refilled with purpose and expectation.

Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they don’t know what they are doing.” And the soldiers gambled for his clothes by throwing dice.” ‭‭Luke‬ ‭23‬:‭34‬ ‭(NLT‬‬) Do not walk in fear. Allow me to become Your guide. I am ever with you. Give me those things which gnaw at you, taking your direction from me. I am what you need. You can rely upon me. Consume my written word. It is truth. Listen for my voice throughout your day.

Pause in your day. Listen for the sounds  about you. Don't allow your situations to  cause you fear or anxiety. Release them to me. Speak to your storms of life. Turn them away.

Have mercy on me, O God! Have mercy on me! For in you I have taken shelter. In the shadow of your wings I take shelter until trouble passes. I cry out for help to the sovereign God, to the God who vindicates me. May he send help from heaven and deliver me from my enemies who hurl insults! (Selah) May God send his loyal love and faithfulness! I am surrounded by lions; I lie down among those who want to devour me; men whose teeth are spears and arrows, whose tongues are a sharp sword. Rise up above the sky, O God! May your splendor cover the whole earth! They have prepared a net to trap me; I am discouraged. They have dug a pit for me. They will fall into it! (Selah) I am determined, O God! I am determined! I will sing and praise you! Awake, my soul! Awake, O stringed instrument and harp! I will wake up at dawn! I will give you thanks before the nations, O Master! I will sing praises to you before foreigners! For your loyal love extends beyond the sky, and your faithfulness reaches the c...

It was now about the sixth hour, and darkness came over all the land until the ninth hour. The sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was torn down the middle. Then Jesus called out in a loud voice, “Father, into Your hands I commit My Spirit.” And when He had said this, He breathed His last. ‭‭Luke‬ ‭23‬:‭44‬-‭46‬ ‭(BSB) Listen for me. Learn to recognize my voice when I am leading you. Take time away from those usual distractions and seek me. Hear my leading you. Release those troubling times and‬‬ situations. I will be there. I will direct your pathway. Do not fear but rely upon me.

The more you respond to me, the more you can see the direction I have for you to be travelling. Explore your dreams. Within them you will begin to see more. Put aside fear. Become stronger in me. Consume my word for it is truth. Within it is life ever-lasting.

Look for me with expectation and I will reveal myself in new ways. I will lead you into the way of truth/ I will guide you to righteous ways and adventures in me. Allow my cleansing to come upon you. Be washed by my Spirit. There is more ahead for you to accomplish with me.

So now I pray, may the power of my Lord be magnified, just as You have declared: ‘The Lord is slow to anger and abounding in loving devotion, forgiving iniquity and transgression. Yet He will by no means leave the guilty unpunished; He will visit the iniquity of the fathers upon their children to the third and fourth generation.’ Pardon, I pray, the iniquity of this people, in keeping with the greatness of Your loving devotion, just as You have forgiven them ever since they left Egypt.” “I have pardoned them as you requested,” the Lord replied. ‭‭Numbers‬ ‭14‬:‭17‬-‭20‬ ‭(BSB‬‬) It is time for you to move up. Allow who you are meant to be to now be shown. Be strong in my love. Don't go off-course. Allow my words to resonate through your life into others and their situations. Move with me. I will show you the way.

Give ear to my words, O Lord; consider my groaning. Attend to the sound of my cry, my King and my God, for to You I pray. In the morning, O Lord, You hear my voice; at daybreak I lay my plea before You and wait in expectation. For You are not a God who delights in wickedness; no evil can dwell with You. The boastful cannot stand in Your presence; You hate all workers of iniquity. You destroy those who tell lies; the Lord abhors the man of bloodshed and deceit. But I will enter Your house by the abundance of Your loving devotion; in reverence I will bow down toward Your holy temple. Lead me, O Lord, in Your righteousness because of my enemies; make straight Your way before me. ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭5‬:‭1‬-‭8‬ ‭(BSB)‬‬ What are your expectations? Do not be in a rush, but become filled with me. Allow me to show the way for you to be going. Yes, I am the way. In my pathway is truth. There you will prosper and grow.

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.
