“But now I am going away to him who sent me, and not one of you asks me, “Where are you going? ” Yet, because I have spoken these things to you, sorrow has filled your heart. Nevertheless, I am telling you the truth. It is for your benefit that I go away, because if I don’t go away the Counsellor will not come to you. If I go, I will send him to you. When he comes, he will convict the world about sin, righteousness, and judgement: ‭‭John‬ ‭16‬:‭5‬-‭8‬ ‭CSBA‬‬ Take shelter in me and the truth of my Word. Within it is life, Let it speak to you and fill you. Come to my altar. Let your offering of sacrifice be found there. My blood has paid the full price.

I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. Every branch in me that does not produce fruit he removes, and he prunes every branch that produces fruit so that it will produce more fruit. You are already clean because of the word I have spoken to you. Remain in me, and I in you. Just as a branch is unable to produce fruit by itself unless it remains on the vine, neither can you unless you remain in me. I am the vine; you are the branches. The one who remains in me and I in him produces much fruit, because you can do nothing without me. ‭‭John‬ ‭15‬:‭1‬-‭5‬ ‭CSBA‬‬ As you listen to the sounds around you know that I am there also. My spirit is there to guide you and to protect you from your bad decisions. I am there. Remain in me and grow mature.

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 Reach out to me and receive the truth of my Word. Recognize me and the truth of my Spirit. Share my heart with others. Recognize me and my ways. I am with you. Put aside your distractions and begin to follow what I have for you to be doing.

Blessed are those whose lives have integrity, those who follow the teachings of the Lord. Blessed are those who obey his written instructions. They wholeheartedly search for him. They do nothing wrong. They follow his directions. You have commanded that your guiding principles be carefully followed. I pray that my ways may become firmly established so that I can obey your laws. ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭119‬:‭1‬-‭5‬ ‭GW As your day moves on, find time with me. Close your eyes and wait. Allow the noise of your day to pass bye. This is a day of rest. Find yourself wrapped in my wholeness. Peace comes come being with me.

So when He had washed their feet, and taken His garments and reclined at the table again, He said to them, “Do you know what I have done to you? You call Me Teacher and Lord; and you are right, for so I am. If I then, the Lord and the Teacher, washed your feet, you also ought to wash one  another’s feet. For I gave you an example that  you also should do as I did to you.” ‭‭John‬ ‭13‬:‭12‬-‭15‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬ Do not become proud of your accomplishments, but follow my example. Find who you are in me and walk in the way I have for you. Learn to listen for my voice. I will direct you into the pathway to be going.

Jesus cried out, “He who believes in Me believes not only in Me, but in Him who sent Me. He who sees Me sees Him who sent Me. I have come as a light into the world, that whoever believes in Me should not remain in darkness. “If anyone hears My words and does not believe, I do not judge him. For I did not come to judge the world, but to save the world.” ‭‭John‬ ‭12‬:‭44‬-‭47‬ ‭MEV‬‬ Are you holding onto those things which you have already given to me? Release your grip and trust me. Allow my way to grow within you. Reach out and heal the sick.

Now the Lord was gracious to Sarah as he had said, and the Lord did for Sarah what he had promised. Sarah became pregnant and bore a son to Abraham in his old age, at the very time God had promised him. Abraham gave the name Isaac to the son Sarah bore him. When his son Isaac was eight days old, Abraham circumcised him, as God commanded him. Abraham was a hundred years old when his son Isaac was born to him.” ‭‭Genesis‬ ‭21‬:‭1‬-‭5‬ ‭NIV Do not walk in fear of the enemy. Ask believing that I will answer you. I have given what you need. Use them to be doing what I show you in your daily walk. Fill your day with my written word. It will feed you and open the truth. Allow me to guide you in your journey.

Jesus said to her, “Your brother will rise again.” Martha answered, “I know he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day.” Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die; and whoever lives by believing in me will never die. Do you believe this?” “Yes, Lord,” she replied, “I believe that you are the Messiah, the Son of God, who is to come into the world.” ‭‭John‬ ‭11‬:‭23‬-‭27‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Don't become overwhelmed or confused by the activities of the enemy. Keep your focus upon me. Follow the way I have whispered to you. I am unchanged. Learn my names. Become familiar and dependent upon them in your time of need, and also in those good days. I am there with you. I am what you need.

Then I called on the name of Yahweh: “Yahweh, save me! ” The Lord is gracious and righteous; our God is compassionate. The Lord guards the inexperienced; I was helpless, and He saved me. Return to your rest, my soul, for the Lord has been good to you. For You, Lord, rescued me from death, my eyes from tears, my feet from stumbling. I will walk before the Lord in the land of the living. ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭116‬:‭4‬-‭9‬ ‭HCSB‬‬ Do not be fearful nor be led by anger, but follow me. Receive my peace and wholeness. My word will guide you in the way you should go. Rest in the peace which only I can provide.

I tell you the solemn truth, the one who does not enter the sheepfold by the door, but climbs in some other way, is a thief and a robber. The one who enters by the door is the shepherd of the sheep. The doorkeeper opens the door for him, and the sheep hear his voice. He calls his own sheep by name and leads them out. When he has brought all his own sheep out, he goes ahead of them, and the sheep follow him because they recognize his voice.” ‭‭John‬ ‭10‬:‭1‬-‭4‬ ‭NET‬‬ Come and sit with me. Put aside your impatience and receive forgiveness. Look beyond today and into my forever love and guidance. Read my word. Pause and listen for it to speak to you. Do you hear me calling to you?

Not to us, O Lord, not to us! But to your name bring honor, for the sake of your loyal love and faithfulness. Why should the nations say, “Where is their God?” Our God is in heaven! He does whatever he pleases! Their idols are made of silver and gold – they are man-made. They have mouths, but cannot speak, eyes, but cannot see, ears, but cannot hear, noses, but cannot smell, hands, but cannot touch, feet, but cannot walk. They cannot even clear their throats. Those who make them will end up like them, as will everyone who trusts in them. O Israel, trust in the Lord! He is their deliverer and protector. ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭115‬:‭1‬-‭9‬ ‭NET‬‬

I have a lot more to tell you, but that would be too much for you now. When the Spirit of Truth comes, he will guide you into the full truth. He won’t speak on his own. He will speak what he hears and will tell you about things to come. He will give me glory, because he will tell you what I say. Everything the Father says is also what I say. That is why I said, ‘He will take what I say and tell it to you.’” ‭‭John‬ ‭16‬:‭12‬-‭15‬ ‭GW‬‬ Wash yourself. Be found reading my word. It is truth. My Spirit will guide you in the way for you to walk. Listen for me. It will come clearly to you. I will continue to guide you in your journey.

Jesus answered, “I’m not possessed. I honor my Father, but you dishonor me. I don’t want my own glory. But there is someone who wants it, and he is the judge. I can guarantee this truth: Whoever obeys what I say will never see death.” ‭‭John‬ ‭8‬:‭49‬-‭51‬ ‭GW‬‬ Don't be fearful, but call upon my name. Find yourself reading my Word. Allow it's truth to guide you. I am the way you need to rely upon. I am life. I remain the way you should be seeking. Follow me. I am life.

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 listen to the voices of distraction. Know me. Recognize my voice. Follow the way I have for you. You can find my peace and share me with those I bring into your pathway. Walk secure with me.

But blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord, whose confidence is in him. They will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by the stream. It does not fear when heat comes; its leaves are always green. It has no worries in a year of drought and never fails to bear fruit. ‭‭Jeremiah‬ ‭17‬:‭7‬-‭8‬ ‭NIV Bring your ears and needs to me. Release them from your grip. Place them upon my altar. Don't allow them to distract you from me. Wash yourself and put on my Spirit. I will lead you in the way you should go.

On the last and greatest day of the festival, Jesus stood and said in a loud voice, “Let anyone who is thirsty come to me and drink. Whoever believes in me, as Scripture has said, rivers of living water will flow from within them.” ‭‭John‬ ‭7‬:‭37‬-‭38‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Put way from busyness and sit quietly with me. Close your wandering eyes and listen. Await my presence. Be filled with my spirit. I will guide you and wash the feelings of failure out of you. I will refresh you with the living water.

For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live as children of light (for the fruit of the light consists in all goodness, righteousness and truth) and find out what pleases the Lord. Have nothing to do with the fruitless deeds of darkness, but rather expose them. It is shameful even to mention what the disobedient do in secret. But everything exposed by the light becomes visible—and everything that is illuminated becomes a light. ‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭5‬:‭8‬-‭13‬ ‭NIV‬‬ I am with you. Listen for my voice. I will direct you in your journey. I will walk with you along the way and be your protection. Learn my word. Allow it to fill you with truth. Share me with others.

When Samuel caught sight of Saul, the Lord said to him, “This is the man I spoke to you about; he will govern my people.” Saul approached Samuel in the gateway and asked, “Would you please tell me where the seer’s house is?” “I am the seer,” Samuel replied. “Go up ahead of me to the high place, for today you are to eat with me, and in the morning I will send you on your way and will tell you all that is in your heart. As for the donkeys you lost three days ago, do not worry about them; they have been found. And to whom is all the desire of Israel turned, if not to you and your whole family line?”” ‭‭1 Samuel‬ ‭9‬:‭17‬-‭20‬ ‭NIV‬‬ My ways continue. Listen for me and the sound of my voice to direct you. Weigh your reactions carefully. Become whom you were called to be. I will be there to guide you along your way.

Jesus told them, “I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never become hungry, And whoever believes in me will never become thirsty. I’ve told you that you have seen me. However, you don’t believe in me. Everyone whom the Father gives me will come to me. I will never turn away anyone who comes to me. I haven’t come from heaven to do what I want to do. I’ve come to do what the one who sent me wants me to do.” ‭‭John‬ ‭6‬:‭35‬-‭38‬ ‭GW‬‬ Go back and reread my gospel stories. See the heart and life of my son. He is your example. Follow Him. Allow his ways to become your ways. Believe in Him. Reach others through what he demonstrates to you.

When evening came, His disciples went down to the sea, got into a boat, and started across the sea to Capernaum. Darkness had already set in, but Jesus had not yet come to them. Then a high wind arose, and the sea began to churn. After they had rowed about three or four miles, they saw Jesus walking on the sea. He was coming near the boat, and they were afraid. But He said to them, “It is I. Don’t be afraid! ” Then they were willing to take Him on board, and at once the boat was at the shore where they were heading. ‭‭John‬ ‭6‬:‭16‬-‭21‬ ‭HCSB‬‬ Listen to the sounds of nature. Each set of birds has it's own song. It does not try to mimic others. Learn your song. Be found singing what has been given to you. It identifies you as mine. Yes, listen and follow after me. There you will find the inner satisfaction.

One man was there who had been sick for 38 years. When Jesus saw him lying there and knew he had already been there a long time, He said to him, “Do you want to get well? ” “Sir,” the sick man answered, “I don’t have a man to put me into the pool when the water is stirred up, but while I’m coming, someone goes down ahead of me.” “Get up,” Jesus told him, “pick up your mat and walk! ” Instantly the man got well, picked up his mat, and started to walk. Now that day was the Sabbath, ‭‭John‬ ‭5‬:‭5‬-‭9‬ ‭HCSB ‬‬

Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not rely on your own understanding; think about Him in all your ways, and He will guide you on the right paths. Don’t consider yourself to be wise; fear the Lord and turn away from evil. ‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭3‬:‭5‬-‭7‬ ‭HCSB‬‬ Trust me in your daily walk. Recognize my leading you away from the familiar and into what I have prepared for you. Put away the fears. With me there is no failure. I am there with you. Open your eyes to the new opportunities and responsibilities.

So Samuel told him everything and did not hide anything from him. Eli responded, “He is the Lord. He will do what He thinks is good.” Samuel grew, and the Lord was with him, and He fulfilled everything Samuel prophesied. All Israel from Dan to Beer-sheba knew that Samuel was a confirmed prophet of the Lord. The Lord continued to appear in Shiloh, because there He revealed Himself to Samuel by His word. ‭‭1 Samuel‬ ‭3‬:‭18‬-‭21‬ ‭HCSB‬‬ I am with you each day. Whether you realize it or not I am there to guide you. Listen for my voice. Allow me to speak healing into you and your situations. Draw closer. Learn my names. Call upon me, expecting I will answer you.

Peter said to her, “How is it that you have agreed together to test the Spirit of the Lord? Behold, the feet of those who have buried your husband are at the door, and they will carry you out.” At once she fell down at his feet and died. Upon entering, the young men found her dead and carried her out and buried her beside her husband. Great fear came on the entire church and on all those who heard these things. ‭‭Acts‬ ‭5‬:‭9‬-‭11‬ ‭MEV‬‬ It is time to make the corrections. Listen for my guidance. I will give you the directions for you to make. They will keep you on the right track you should be going. Don't follow others. Walk with me.

Jesus said to her, Everyone who drinks of this water will thirst again, but whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him will never thirst. Indeed, the water that I shall give him will become in him a well of water springing up into eternal life. ‭‭John‬ ‭4‬:‭13‬-‭14‬ ‭MEV‬‬ I am yet the savior of the world. My words of truth release healing. Forgiveness is available to those who ask rightly. Draw near to me. Drink from my well. Allow my healing to flow through you.

You yourselves are my witnesses that I said, ‘I am not the Christ,’ but, ‘I have been sent ahead of Him.’ He who has the bride is the bridegroom; but the friend of the bridegroom, who stands and hears him, rejoices greatly because of the bridegroom’s voice. So this joy of mine has been made full. He must increase, but I must decrease.” ‭‭John‬ ‭3‬:‭28‬-‭30‬ ‭NASB1995 What do you hear as you sit beneath the shadows? What might you expect to hear or to experience? Look for me, as I am there with my guidance. Do not sense my correction as punishment. It is my love.

The sheep that are My own hear and are listening to My voice; and I know them, and they follow Me. And I give them eternal life, and they shall never lose it or perish throughout the ages. [To all eternity they shall never by any means be destroyed.] And no one is able to snatch them out of My hand. ‭‭John‬ ‭10‬:‭27‬-‭28‬ ‭AMPC‬‬ It's time to listen for me. Take the time away from your usual activity and listen. Hear the breeze as it moves through the tree branches. They respond by going the direction of my voice. You too can go with me. Do not be frightened, but walk with me. Go where I will show you.

Follow God’s example, therefore, as dearly loved children and walk in the way of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God. ‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭5‬:‭1‬-‭2‬ ‭NIV Don't be in a rush, but take time to stop and look/listen for me. Allow my correction to keep you on the right pathway. I will show you things you've not yet seen. My love will overflow you. Fill yourself with my written word. Don't rush through it. Allow it's stories and truth to show my way.

Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit. ‭‭Galatians‬ ‭5‬:‭24‬-‭25‬ ‭NIV Don't be rushed ahead or be delayed by what you see. Listen for me. I will direct you. I will show you when it is time to move forward. I am what you need. I am the way to life. Put your trust in me.

He was not seen by all the people, but by witnesses whom God had already chosen— by us who ate and drank with him after he rose from the dead. He commanded us to preach to the people and to testify that he is the one whom God appointed as judge of the living and the dead. All the prophets testify about him that everyone who believes in him receives forgiveness of sins through his name. ‭‭Acts‬ ‭10‬:‭41‬-‭43‬ ‭NIV Come nearer. My forgiveness is available. Allow me to wash you. Come to me. It is time to reach down and pick up more change. I will place it in your pathway. Ready yourself, be filled with my Word. It contains the life for you to share.

The true light that gives light to everyone was coming into the world. He was in the world, and though the world was made through him, the world did not recognize him. He came to that which was his own, but his own did not receive him. Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God. ‭‭John‬ ‭1‬:‭9‬-‭12‬ ‭NIV‬‬ My words are unchanged. They remain true. Let them reach into the broken places and bring your healing. Come, wash in my forgiveness. Wash away your guilt and be refreshed. Learn my heart. Share it with others.

It was now about noon, and darkness came over the whole land until three in the afternoon, for the sun stopped shining. And the curtain of the temple was torn in two. Jesus called out with a loud voice, “Father, into your hands I commit my spirit.” When he had said this, he breathed his last. The centurion, seeing what had happened, praised God and said, “Surely this was a righteous man.” ‭‭Luke‬ ‭23‬:‭44‬-‭47‬ ‭NIV Shut off your inner noise and listen for me. Hear me clearly, I will guide you. I will show you my way. Don't be fearful, but follow me. Become my reflection. Allow me to show myself through you.

You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven. ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭5‬:‭14‬-‭16‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Do not give into the way of the enemy. You are my light. Let your walk be straight and firm with me. I will continue to guide you. Follow me. I am here for you in your journey.

Come, let us bow down in worship, let us kneel before the Lord our Maker; for he is our God and we are the people of his pasture, the flock under his care. Today, if only you would hear his voice ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭95‬:‭6‬-‭7‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Don't run away, but come back to me. Come back to the places where we last spoke, where my healing words reached out and touched you. I am yet there. I remain the healer. My love remains.

It is true that some preach Christ out of envy and rivalry, but others out of goodwill. The latter do so out of love, knowing that I am put here for the defense of the gospel. The former preach Christ out of selfish ambition, not sincerely, supposing that they can stir up trouble for me while I am in chains. But what does it matter? The important thing is that in every way, whether from false motives or true, Christ is preached. And because of this I rejoice. Yes, and I will continue to rejoice. ‭‭Philippians‬ ‭1‬:‭15‬-‭18‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Hear my words. Allow them to guide you and bring healing. Within them is life. Do not become confused. I am the way. Seek my heart. Follow me .

When the hour came, Jesus and his apostles reclined at the table. And he said to them, “I have eagerly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer. For I tell you, I will not eat it again until it finds fulfillment in the kingdom of God.” After taking the cup, he gave thanks and said, “Take this and divide it among you. For I tell you I will not drink again from the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God comes.” And he took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, “This is my body given for you; do this in remembrance of me.” In the same way, after the supper he took the cup, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which is poured out for you.” Luke 22:14-20 NIV Don't allow distractions to keep you from me. I am there. I am with you. Find yourself in me. Become what I already see. I have provided what you need, Now share my love with others.

If you say, “The Lord is my refuge,” and you make the Most High your dwelling, no harm will overtake you, no disaster will come near your tent. For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways; they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone. You will tread on the lion and the cobra; you will trample the great lion and the serpent. “Because he loves me,” says the Lord, “I will rescue him; I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name. He will call on me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him. With long life I will satisfy him and show him my salvation.” ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭91‬:‭9‬-‭16‬ ‭NIV ‬‬

He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say to the Lord, “My refuge and my fortress, My God, in whom I trust!” For it is He who delivers you from the snare of the trapper And from the deadly pestilence. He will cover you with His pinions, and under His wings you may seek refuge; His faithfulness is a shield and bulwark. You will not be afraid of the terror by night, or of the arrow that flies by day; ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭91‬:‭1‬-‭5‬ ‭NASB1995 I am with you throughout your day. Go to those places where you have found me before. Don't be in a hurry, but offer your thanks in the quiet. Allow my forgiveness to cleanse and  protect you. Sit in peace with me.  

I am now going the way of all the earth, And you know with all your heart and all your soul that none of the good promises the Lord your God made to you has failed. Everything was fulfilled for you; not one promise has failed. Since every good thing the Lord your God promised you has come about, so He will bring on you every bad thing until He has annihilated you from this good Land the Lord your God has given you. If you break the covenant of the Lord your God, which He commanded you, and go and worship other gods, and bow down to them, the Lord’s anger will burn against you, and You will quickly disappear from this good land He has given you. Joshua 23:14-16 HCSB Like the blue sky, you too can be washed. You can be cleansed through my Word. Allow it's truth to guide you into my ways. Believe what my Word says. It is truth and life. It will direct you in the way of my son. He is my image. Seek him, expecting his direction.

Be very strong and continue obeying all that is written in the book of the law of Moses, so that you do not turn from it to the right or left and so that you do not associate with these nations remaining among you. Do not call on the names of their gods or make an oath to them; do not worship them or bow down to them. Instead, remain faithful to the Lord your God, as you have done to this day. Joshua 23:6-8 HCSB Do not be in a rush, but spend time with me. Sit quietly. Listen and allow me to speak with you. Tell me what is upon your heart.

We know that we have come to know him if we keep his commands. Whoever says, “I know him,” but does not do what he commands is a liar, and the truth is not in that person. But if anyone obeys his word, love for God is truly made complete in them. This is how we know we are in him: Whoever claims to live in him must live as Jesus did. ‭‭1 John‬ ‭2‬:‭3‬-‭6‬ ‭NIV ‬‬

Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:6-7 NIV I am the peace which you need each day. Come closer and sit with me. Allow my healing peace to reach you. Become filled with me and see the wonder of my creation. Reach out to me.

Against all hope, Abraham in hope believed and so became the father of many nations, just as it had been said to him, “So shall your offspring be.” Without weakening in his faith, he faced the fact that his body was as good as dead— since he was about a hundred years old— and that Sarah’s womb was also dead. Yet he did not waver through unbelief regarding the promise of God, but was strengthened in his faith and gave glory to God, being fully persuaded that God had power to do what he had promised. This is why “it was credited to him as righteousness.” ‭‭Romans‬ ‭4‬:‭18‬-‭22‬ ‭NIV Are you listening for me to speak with you? Do you know me, or recognize my voice? Can you sense me directing you? Are you responding or are you pretending not to hear me? Allow my peace to come upon you. My Spirit is life and peace. Follow the way I direct you.

As the rain and the snow come down from heaven, and do not return to it without watering the earth and making it bud and flourish, so that it yields seed for the sower and bread for the eater, so is my word that goes out from my mouth: It will not return to me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it.” ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭55‬:‭10‬-‭11‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Learn to recognize what is important. Find yourself satisfied and knowing more of my word. It is me. Allow my peace to cover your life. Let others see the love I have for them. Seek me each part of your day. I love you. I am there with you. Walk forward with me. I am what you need.

Those who heard this asked, “Who then can be saved?” Jesus replied, “What is impossible with man is possible with God.” Peter said to him, “We have left all we had to follow you!” “Truly I tell you,” Jesus said to them, “no one who has left home or wife or brothers or sisters or parents or children for the sake of the kingdom of God will fail to receive many times as much in this age, and in the age to come eternal life.” ‭‭Luke‬ ‭18‬:‭26‬-‭30‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Learn to recognize what is important. Find yourself satisfied and knowing more of me. Allow my peace to cover your life. Let others see the love I have for them. Seek me in each part of your day. I have you where you are to be, and I am there with you. Walk forward with me. I am what you need.

You, Lord, showed favor to your land; you restored the fortunes of Jacob. You forgave the iniquity of your people and covered all their sins. You set aside all your wrath and turned from your fierce anger. Restore us again, God our Savior, and put away your displeasure toward us. Will you be angry with us forever? Will you prolong your anger through all generations? Will you not revive us again, that your people may rejoice in you? Show us your unfailing love, Lord, and grant us your salvation. I will listen to what God the Lord says; he promises peace to his people, his faithful servants— but let them not turn to folly. Surely his salvation is near those who fear him, that his glory may dwell in our land. ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭85‬:‭1‬-‭9‬ ‭NIV‬‬ My word and my way are never changing. They remain true and righteous. They will guide you into the light of life. Seek their understanding and practice the life they carry.

Jesus left there and went to his hometown, accompanied by his disciples. When the Sabbath came, he began to teach in the synagogue, and many who heard him were amazed. “Where did this man get these things?” they asked. “What’s this wisdom that has been given him? What are these remarkable miracles he is performing?” ‭‭Mark‬ ‭6‬:‭1‬-‭2‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Remember where you are. Have you been here before? Have you walked through the entanglements or did you avoid them? Find me within your life. I am there to guide you where you should be going. My way is truth. Only through me is the life you need.

But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our guilt and iniquities; the chastisement [needful to obtain] peace and well-being for us was upon Him, and with the stripes [that wounded] Him we are healed and made whole. All we like sheep have gone astray, we have turned every one to his own way; and the Lord has made to light upon Him the guilt and iniquity of us all. ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭53‬:‭5‬-‭6‬ ‭AMPC‬‬ I am there. I've never left you alone. I  provide what you need to grow in my ways. There are opportunities yet in front of you. See the supernatural show itself.  Learn to listen for my leading. I am calling you to walk along in my way.

If you really keep the royal law found in Scripture, “Love your neighbor as yourself,” you are doing right. But if you show favoritism, you sin and are convicted by the law as lawbreakers. For whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles at just one point is guilty of breaking all of it. For he who said, “You shall not commit adultery,” also said, “You shall not murder.” If you do not commit adultery but do commit murder, you have become a lawbreaker.” James 2:8-11 NIV Why are you sitting and worrying? Have you shared your feelings with me? I am here with you. Reach forward and listen to what I am saying. Listen for me. Learn the way I communicate with my heart. Keep my ways in your life.

The Son is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For in him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him. He is before all things, and in him all things hold together. And he is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything he might have the supremacy. ‭‭Colossians‬ ‭1‬:‭15‬-‭18‬ ‭NIV‬‬ See their faces. Notice the pain in their hearts as they move through their days unaware of me or my love for them. I have not changed. What of you? Are you changing into my image for your life? Are you performing my ways, expressing my love to them?

Moses was a hundred and twenty years old when he died, yet his eyes were not weak nor his strength gone. The Israelites grieved for Moses in the plains of Moab thirty days, until the time of weeping and mourning was over. Now Joshua son of Nun was filled with the spirit of wisdom because Moses had laid his hands on him. So the Israelites listened to him and did what the Lord had commanded Moses. Since then, no prophet has risen in Israel like Moses, whom the Lord knew face to face, who did all those signs and wonders the Lord sent him to do in Egypt—to Pharaoh and to all his officials and to his whole land. For no one has ever shown the mighty power or performed the awesome deeds that Moses did in the sight of all Israel. Deuteronomy 34:7-12 NIV Do not be in a rush, but quiet yourself. Listen for me. I have places for you to be going in your time with me. There are lives to be healed and reached. Go forth as I show you. Become whom you were created to become.

Then the Lord replied: “Write down the revelation and make it plain on tablets so that a herald may run with it. For the revelation awaits an appointed time; it speaks of the end and will not prove false. Though it linger, wait for it; it will certainly come and will not delay. The Lord is in his holy temple;  let all the earth be silent before him. ‭‭Habakkuk‬ ‭2‬:‭2‬-‭3‬, ‭20‬ ‭NIV

Anxiety weighs down the heart, but a kind word cheers it up. Proverbs 12:25 NIV Listen for the sounds about you. They are of my creation. Each of their songs is unique. They sing out declaring what I have given them. Allow others to learn of me. Show them the truth through your life. Become who you were born to be in my kingdom. Be my reflection.

Then he told this parable: “A man had a fig tree growing in his vineyard, and he went to look for fruit on it but did not find any. So he said to the man who took care of the vineyard, ‘For three years now I’ve been coming to look for fruit on this fig tree and haven’t found any. Cut it down! Why should it use up the soil?’ “  ‘Sir,’ the man replied, ‘leave it alone for one more year, and I’ll dig around it and fertilize it. If it bears fruit next year, fine! If not, then cut it down.’ ”” ‭‭Luke‬ ‭13‬:‭6‬-‭9‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Come and sit with me. Give me your attention. Allow my ways and healing to flow through you. Bare my fruit. My spirit is there with you now, whether you realize it or not. You are not alone. Walk your way with me. I will provide the guiding you may need.

Like servants waiting for their master to return from a wedding banquet, so that when he comes and knocks they can immediately open the door for him. It will be good for those servants whose master finds them watching when he comes. Truly I tell you, he will dress himself to serve, will have them recline at the table and will come and wait on them. It will be good for those servants whose master finds them ready, even if he comes in the middle of the night or toward daybreak.” ‭‭Luke‬ ‭12‬:‭36‬-‭38‬ ‭NIV‬‬ You should not only see the signs before you, but to recognize and follow them. Allow me to keep you safe. It is not the time to turn. My light will show you when you can turn to the right. Don't hurry through, but rest in my word. Allow it to feed and direct you.

Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Then Moses summoned Joshua and said to him in the presence of all Israel, “Be strong and courageous, for you must go with this people into the land that the Lord swore to their ancestors to give them, and you must divide it among them as their inheritance. The Lord himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged. ‭‭Deuteronomy‬ ‭31‬:‭6‬-‭8‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Sit quietly with me. Pause and listen. Can you hear my thoughts? They are there. Don't hesitate to ask of me. Know that you are loved and there is a plan for you. I am the Lord creator God. I have made all things. Put your trust in me. Learn who you are within my ways.

Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him. For we know that since Christ was raised from the dead, he cannot die again; death no longer has mastery over him. The death he died, he died to sin once for all; but the life he lives, he lives to God. In the same way, count yourselves dead to sin but alive to God in Christ Jesus. ‭‭Romans‬ ‭6‬:‭8‬-‭11‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Sit with me and be healed. Quiet your inner mind of those accusations of failure. You are whole with me. The price has been paid. Look outward, for I have places for you to be going. There are lives awaiting the smile and truth as it comes forth from you.

No one lights a lamp and puts it in a place where it will be hidden, or under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, so that those who come in may see the light. Your eye is the lamp of your body. When your eyes are healthy, your whole body also is full of light. But when they are unhealthy, your body also is full of darkness. See to it, then, that the light within you is not darkness. Therefore, if your whole body is full of light, and no part of it dark, it will be just as full of light as when a lamp shines its light on you. ‭‭Luke‬ ‭11‬:‭33‬-‭36‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Don't hurry through your day. Look for me. I am there with you. Identify my ways of reaching out to you and become filled with life. Allow my written Word to become a guide for those things happening about you.

The nations you will dispossess listen to those who practice sorcery or divination. But as for you, the Lord Your God has not permitted you to do so. The Lord your God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among you, from your fellow Israelites. You must listen to him. For this is what you asked of the Lord your God at Horeb on the day of the assembly when you said, “Let us not hear the voice of the Lord our God nor see this great fire anymore, or we will die.” ‭‭Deuteronomy‬ ‭18‬:‭14‬-‭16‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Listen to the words your actions speak when others see you. Are they what I have placed within you? Do they represent my loving direction? Fear not the evil one, as I have paid the price. Walk with me. Learn my ways in truth and love. Listen for me and I will speak to you. I will show you the way for you to be going.

Surely he took up our pain and bore our suffering, yet we considered him punished by God, stricken by him, and afflicted. But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds we are healed. We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to our own way; and the Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all. ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭53‬:‭4‬-‭6‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Do not allow this to be a day of distraction. Keep focused upon me. I will continue to be the light in the darkness. Follow my light. I will lead you in the pathway you are to be moving. Reach out and bring prayer for those I bring to you. Don't be surprised when they are healed. Set them upon the road so they to may reach others in my name.

Thomas said to him, “Lord, we don’t know where you are going, so how can we know the way?” Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. If you really know me, you will know my Father as well. From now on, you do know him and have seen him.” John 14:5-7 NIV

The Son is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For in him all Things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers Or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him. He is before all things, and in him all things hold together. And he is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything he might have the supremacy. ‭‭Colossians‬ ‭1‬:‭15‬-‭18‬ ‭NIV‬‬ I am there. I've not left you, except to help you grow stronger in the way for you to grow. Depend upon me. Put aside your business. Come closer, sit with me. Remove the blinders and allow me to cleanse your heart.

Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you. But when you ask, you must believe and not doubt, because the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. ‭‭James‬ ‭1‬:‭2‬-‭6‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Come to the spot where we meet, that place where you can unload your failures and receive healing. Come and sit with me. Don't rush through our time, but listen for me. Hear the words of direction I place within you. Feel the weight of my presence. Look to me and you will find me.

But Moses said to God, “Suppose I go to Bnei-Yisrael and say to them, ‘The God of your fathers has sent me to you,’ and they ask me, ‘What is His Name?’ What should I say to them?” God answered Moses, “I AM WHO I AM. ” Then He said, “You are to say to Bnei-Yisrael, ‘I AM’ has sent me to you.” God also said to Moses: “You are to say to  Bnei-Yisrael, Adonai, the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, has sent me to you. This is My Name forever, and the Name by which I should be remembered from generation to generation." ‭‭Exodus‬ ‭3‬:‭13‬-‭15‬ ‭TLV‬‬ I am with you. Quiet the inner noise and impatience. Continue in the direction I've shown you. It will become clear when it will be the time to change directions. Seek me. Fill yourself with my written word. There you will be refreshed. With it you will see my face.

Suppose a prophet or one who foretells by dreams should appear among you and show you a sign or wonder, and the sign or wonder should come to pass concerning what he said to you, namely, “Let us follow other gods” – gods whom you have not previously known – “and let us serve them.” You must not listen to the words of that prophet or dreamer, for the Lord your God will be testing you to see if you love him with all your mind and being. You must follow the Lord your God and revere only him; and you must observe his commandments, obey him, serve him, and remain loyal to him. ‭‭Deuteronomy‬ ‭13‬:‭1‬-‭4‬ ‭NET My ways continue to release life. Within them you will find truth and purpose. Reach out and share what I have given you. Let it grow. Become a reflection of my love. Do not be guided by fear, but come to me believing. I will share what they need so they too may grow. Release life.

For if you are careful to keep all this commandment which I am commanding you to do, to love the Lord your God, to walk in all His ways and hold fast to Him, then the Lord will drive out all these nations from before you, and you will dispossess nations greater and mightier than you. Every place on which the sole of your foot treads shall be yours; your border will be from the wilderness to Lebanon, and from the river, the river Euphrates, as far as the western sea. No man will be able to stand before you; the Lord your God will lay the dread of you and the fear of you on all the land on which you set foot, as He has spoken to you. ‭‭Deuteronomy‬ ‭11‬:‭22‬-‭25‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬ Are you changing into my image? Are our thoughts merging such that you are now following what I've spoken to you? You say you wish to grow, so exercise my ways in your daily life. Find where it seems I am and proceed there. Allow me to guide you along the way. Don't be fearful in your walk with me.

They went away and found a colt tied at the door, outside in the street; and they untied it. Some of the bystanders were saying to them, “What are you doing, untying the colt?” They spoke to them just as Jesus had told them, and they gave them permission. They brought the colt to Jesus and put their coats on it; and He sat on it. And many spread their coats in the road, and others spread leafy branches which they had cut from the fields. Those who went in front and those who followed were shouting: “Hosanna! Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord; Blessed is the coming kingdom of our father David; Hosanna in the highest!” Jesus entered Jerusalem and came into the temple; and after looking around at everything, He left for Bethany with the twelve, since it was already late. ‭‭Mark‬ ‭11‬:‭4‬-‭11‬ ‭NASB199 5‬‬

Love never fails; but if there are gifts of prophecy, they will be done away; if there are tongues, they will cease; if there is knowledge, it will be done away. For we know in part and we prophesy in part; but when the perfect comes, the partial will be done away. ‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭13‬:‭8‬-‭10‬‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬ Settle yourself and put aside your anxiety for wherever you go I will go with you. Look about and see my creation, each tree similar, yet varied, so are my ways among my children, yet you are all mine. Grow in the ways I have for you. Reach out and become what you were intended to become.

Jesus replied to Nicodemus, “I can guarantee this truth: No one can see God’s kingdom without being born from above.” Nicodemus asked him, “How can anyone be born when he’s an old man? He can’t go back inside his mother a second time to be born, can he?” Jesus answered Nicodemus, “I can guarantee this truth: No one can enter God’s kingdom without being born of water and the Spirit. Flesh and blood give birth to flesh and blood, but the Spirit gives birth to things that are spiritual. Don’t be surprised when I tell you that all of you must be born from above. The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you don’t know where the wind comes from or where it’s going. That’s the way it is with everyone born of the Spirit.” ‭‭John‬ ‭3‬:‭3‬-‭8‬ ‭GW Look past your initial impression and see the conditions of their heart. Recognize the pain and hopelessness. They need me. Reach out and acknowledge their existence. You once were in that condition. You too still need me. I am here ...

O God, save me by your name, and defend me with your might. O God, hear my prayer, and open your ears to the words from my mouth. Strangers have attacked me. Ruthless people seek my life. They do not think about God. Selah God is my helper! The Lord is the provider for my life. My enemies spy on me. Pay them back with evil. Destroy them with your truth! I will make a sacrifice to you along with a freewill offering. I will give thanks to your good name, O Lord. Your name rescues me from every trouble. My eyes will gloat over my enemies. ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭54‬:‭1‬-‭7‬ ‭GW ‬‬

When they came near Jerusalem and had reached Bethphage on the Mount of Olives, Jesus sent two disciples ahead of him. He said to them, “Go into the village ahead of you. You will find a donkey tied there and a colt with it. Untie them, and bring them to me. If anyone says anything to you, tell him that the Lord needs them. That person will send them at once.” This happened so that what the prophet had said came true: “Tell the people of Zion, Your king is coming to you. He’s gentle, riding on a donkey, on a colt, a young pack animal. ” ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭21‬:‭1‬-‭5‬ ‭GW Look forward. What do you see? What am I doing now? Do not be frightened, but walk with me. Listen for me as I whisper directions for you. I am life. I am reaching out to the unloved. They need to know my heart, not what they see from others. Yes, walk forward. Walk with me in my love.

So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live your lives in him, rooted and built up in him, strengthened in the faith as you were taught, and overflowing with thankfulness. See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends on human tradition and the elemental spiritual forces of this world rather than on Christ. ‭‭Colossians‬ ‭2‬:‭6‬-‭8‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Recognize who you are in me. My ways will grant safety, providing you safety and protection. Don't become confused by the accusations of the enemy. His ways are death. Follow me. I am life. I am the only way of truth. In me you can have freedom.

Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable— if anything is excellent or praiseworthy— think about such things. Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you. ‭‭Philippians‬ ‭4‬:‭6‬-‭9‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Look where I have taken you over the years. You can see the changes of your ideas of me. I have not changed. I remain who I've declared myself to be. I am there now. Allow me to continue to lead you in the way of inner peace. Seek me. Find me in the written Word and in your daily life. I do not change.

Praise awaits you, our God, in Zion; to you our vows will be fulfilled. You who answer prayer, to you all people will come. When we were overwhelmed by sins, you forgave our transgressions. Blessed are those you choose and bring near to live in your courts! We are filled with the good things of your house, of your holy temple. ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭65‬:‭1‬-‭4‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Watch and listen. You will discover more of me. You will find what I have for you to share. There you will find the purpose you've been searching. Don't look past the obvious. I am there, leading you.

When he had finished speaking, he said to Simon, “Put out into deep water, and let down the nets for a catch.” Simon answered, “Master, we’ve worked hard all night and haven’t caught anything. But because you say so, I will let down the nets.” When they had done so, they caught such a large number of fish that their nets began to break. So they signaled their partners in the other boat to come and help them, and they came and filled both boats so full that they began to sink. When Simon Peter saw this, he fell at Jesus’ knees and said, “Go away from me, Lord; I am a sinful man!” ‭‭Luke‬ ‭5‬:‭4‬-‭8‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Do not be frightened. Still your inner self. You are beneath my light. I am with you. I am your protector. Slow your walk and follow the way I show you .

Truly I tell you,” he continued, “no prophet is accepted in his hometown. I assure you that there were many widows in Israel in Elijah’s time, when the sky was shut for three and a half years and there was a severe famine throughout the land. Yet Elijah was not sent to any of them, but to a widow in Zarephath in the region of Sidon. And there were many in Israel with leprosy in the time of Elisha the prophet, yet not one of them was cleansed—only Naaman the Syrian.” ‭‭Luke‬ ‭4‬:‭24‬-‭27‬ ‭NIV Are you distracted? Are you in need of direction? Do you need healing? I am the answer. I will lead you to the way of wholeness. There is no other way. My ways have not changed. Are you aligned with them?

Jesus returned to Galilee in the power of the Spirit, and news about him spread through the whole countryside. He was teaching in their synagogues, and everyone praised him. He went to Nazareth, where he had been brought up, and on the Sabbath day he went into the synagogue, as was his custom. He stood up to read, and the scroll of the prophet Isaiah was handed to him. Unrolling it, he found the place where it is written: “The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to set the oppressed free, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.” Then he rolled up the scroll, gave it back to the attendant and sat down. The eyes of everyone in the synagogue were fastened on him. He began by saying to them, “Today this scripture is fulfilled in your hearing.”” ‭‭Luke‬ ‭4‬:‭14‬-‭21‬ ‭NIV ‬‬

Jesus said to his disciples: “Things that cause people to stumble are bound to come, but woe to anyone through whom they come. It would be better for them to be thrown into the sea with a millstone tied around their neck than to cause one of these little ones to stumble. So watch yourselves. “If your brother or sister sins against you, rebuke them; and if they repent, forgive them. Even if they sin against you seven times in a day and seven times come back to you saying ‘I repent,’ you must forgive them.” ‭‭Luke‬ ‭17‬:‭1‬-‭4‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Seek me. Allow me to reach out and heal your heart. I will place my ways into your pathway so you may learn from me. Do not be discouraged. That is a ploy of the enemy. Be alert and listen. I will place challenges so you can grow stronger. I will show you opportunities to reach out and share my love and healing with others.

Jesus answered, “Even if I testify on my own behalf, my testimony is valid, for I know where I came From and where I am going. But you have no idea where I come from or where I am going. You judge by human standards; I pass judgment on no one. But if I do judge, my decisions are true, because I am not alone. I stand with the Father, who sent me. In your own Law it is written that the testimony of two witnesses is true. I am one who testifies for myself; my other witness is the Father, who sent me.” ‭‭John‬ ‭8‬:‭14‬-‭18‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Do not rush through your day. Put aside your schedule. Listen and await for me. Yes, I am there with you. I will speak to you. Are you ready? Be filled with my Spirit. Move secure in the direction we will lead you. I am the light. I will lead you where you should go.

The Lord is good, a refuge in times of trouble. He cares for those who trust in him, but with an overwhelming flood he will make an end of Nineveh; he will pursue his foes into the realm of darkness. ‭‭Nahum‬ ‭1‬:‭7‬-‭8‬ ‭NIV‬‬ What do you see when you look about? All of nature is reaching up and out to me. It grows in the ways embedded within. You too are my creation. Within you is life. Reach out. Grow in the ways I have implanted for you. Listen for the sound of my voice as I direct you in your walk. I care for you .

People’s hopes were rising as they all wondered whether John was the Messiah. John replied to all of them, “I baptize you with water. But the one who is more powerful than I is coming. I am not worthy to untie his sandal straps. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire. His winnowing shovel is in his hand to clean up his threshing floor. He will gather the wheat into his barn, but he will burn the husks in a fire that can never be put out.” ‭‭Luke‬ ‭3‬:‭15‬-‭17‬ ‭GW‬‬ As you go through your daily travels, look back to your stops and interruptions. See if I was there? Was it me who drew your attention to those places and faces? I am there with you. Now allow me to lead you through those rough places. Wait and listen for me.

Bind up this testimony of warning and seal up God’s instruction among my disciples. I will wait for the Lord, who is hiding his face from the descendants of Jacob. I will put my trust in him. Here am I, and the children the Lord has given me. We are signs and symbols in Israel from the Lord Almighty, who dwells on Mount Zion. ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭8‬:‭16‬-‭18‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Don't allow your imagination to mislead you. It would lead you on rabbit trails away from where I would lead you. It would tell you, you are unloved. That is not true. Don't believe those lies of the enemy. Put aside the noise and receive my peace. Trust me. Share my ways with those you will meet in your journey.

Elijah was a human being, even as we are. He prayed earnestly that it would not rain, and it did not rain on the land for three and a half years. Again he prayed, and the heavens gave rain, and the earth produced its crops. My brothers and sisters, if one of you should wander from the truth and someone should bring that person back, remember this: Whoever turns a sinner from the error of their way will save them from death and cover over a multitude of sins. ‭‭James‬ ‭5‬:‭17‬-‭20‬ ‭NIV‬‬ When you quiet yourself you can hear me. You will know I am there with you. You will sense me directing you in the way you should be going. Put aside your anger and anxiety. I am your provider. Follow after me as you feed upon my Word.

And Mary said: “My soul glorifies the Lord and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior, for he has been mindful of the humble state of his servant. From now on all generations will call me blessed, for the Mighty One has done great things for me — holy is his name. His mercy extends to those who fear him, from generation to generation. He has performed mighty deeds with his arm; he has scattered those who are proud in their inmost thoughts. He has brought down rulers from their thrones but has lifted up the humble. He has filled the hungry with good things but has sent the rich away empty. He has helped his servant Israel, remembering to be merciful to Abraham and his descendants forever, just as he promised our ancestors.” ‭‭Luke‬ ‭1‬:‭46‬-‭55‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Have mercy on me, my God, have mercy on me, for in you I take refuge. I will take refuge in the shadow of your wings until the disaster has passed. I cry out to God Most High, to God, who vindicates me. He sends from heaven and saves me, rebuking those who hotly pursue me— God sends forth his love and his faithfulness. ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭57‬:‭1‬-‭3‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Set aside your ideas and complaints. Come sit with me. Allow healing to flow over you as you learn who I am. Be filled with goodness and mercy. I am the LORD God. All life comes from me. Come and be washed in what I have for you from my son. I speak mercy into your life.

Cast your cares on the Lord and he will sustain you; he will never let the righteous be shaken. But you, God, will bring down the wicked into the pit of decay; the bloodthirsty and deceitful will not live out half their days. But as for me, I trust in you. ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭55‬:‭22‬-‭23‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Hear the roars of the moving winds, Yet do not fear. Move within the safety of my shelter. I am your protector. I am all which you need.

Therefore if you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if any comfort from his love, if any common sharing in the Spirit, if any tenderness and compassion, then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and of one mind. Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others. ‭‭Philippians‬ ‭2‬:‭1‬-‭4‬ ‭NIV‬‬ This is a new day. Recognize it as you walk through it. It is a time for you to reach out for me. Find what I have for you to be doing within my kingdom. Don't add to my words, but become their reflection of my love.

Cast your cares on the Lord and he will sustain you; he will never let the righteous be shaken. But you, God, will bring down the wicked into the pit of decay; the bloodthirsty and deceitful will not live out half their days. But as for me, I trust in you. ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭55‬:‭22‬-‭23‬ ‭NIV

Then they brought Him to the place Golgotha, which is translated, Place of a Skull. They tried to give Him wine mixed with myrrh; but He did not take it. And they crucified Him, and divided up His garments among themselves, casting lots for them to decide what each man should take. It was the third hour when they crucified Him. The inscription of the charge against Him read, “THE KING OF THE JEWS.” ‭‭Mark‬ ‭15‬:‭22‬-‭26‬ ‭NASB1995 Don't become distracted by the coming storms. Stay safe with me. I will be your security. I am all that you need. Yes, trust my words. Within them is truth and life. I have paid the price so you can have fullness and safety.

While they were eating, He took some bread, and after a blessing He broke it, and gave it to them, and said, “Take it; this is My body.” And when He had taken a cup and given thanks, He gave it to them, and they all drank from it. And He said to them, “This is My blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many. Truly I say to you, I will never again drink of the fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it new in the kingdom of God.” ‭‭Mark‬ ‭14‬:‭22‬-‭25‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬ Watch for me in the journey of your day. Expect me to be there, placing opportunity in your pathway. Listen for me to direct you from location to location, repeating so you miss not what is important. Talk with me. Allow my healing conversation to flow. Wholeness is larger than you now perceive it .

In the beginning was the Word. The Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. All things were made through Him, and apart from Him nothing was made that has come into being. In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. ‭‭John‬ ‭1‬:‭1‬-‭4‬ ‭TLV‬‬ Watch your reactions. Stop and listen for there is a message for you this day as you read it. Allow me access. Let me be your covering. Come to those places where you last heard from me. What did you learn there? Now move along. I will provide what you need.

On the twentieth day of the second month of the second year, the cloud lifted from above the tabernacle of the covenant law. Then the Israelites set out from the Desert of Sinai and traveled from place to place until the cloud came to rest in the Desert of Paran. They set out, this first time, at the Lord’s command through Moses. ‭‭Numbers‬ ‭10‬:‭11‬-‭13‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Yes, this is a time for you. Wash yourself with my forgiveness and draw nearer to me. Don't allow distractions to keep you away. Be doing what I've shown you. Walk in the pathway in love. Follow my light. I will lead where you should go.

Let me put this question to you: How did your new life begin? Was it by working your heads off to please God? Or was it by responding to God’s Message to you? Are you going to continue this craziness? For only crazy people would think they could complete by their own efforts what was begun by God. If you weren’t smart enough or strong enough to begin it, how do you suppose you could perfect it? Did you go through this whole painful learning process for nothing? It is not yet a total loss, but it certainly will be if you keep this up! Galatians 3:2-4 Allow me to open your eyes. See beyond the clouds of this rainy morning. All that is there is my creation. I have given life by my spoken word. Carry my word within you. Allow it to bring your healing. Speak forth, believing what I tell you, all  in love.

The Mighty One, God, the Lord, speaks and summons the earth from the rising of the sun to where it sets. From Zion, perfect in beauty, God shines forth. Our God comes and will not be silent; a fire devours before him, and around him a tempest rages. He summons the heavens above, and the earth, that he may judge his people: “Gather to me this consecrated people, who made a covenant with me by sacrifice.” And the heavens proclaim his righteousness, for he is a God of justice. ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭50‬:‭1‬-‭6‬ ‭NIV‬‬

So, because Jesus was doing these things on the Sabbath, the Jewish leaders began to persecute him. In his defense Jesus said to them, “My Father is always at his work to this very day, and I too am working.” For this reason they tried all the more to kill him; not only was he breaking the Sabbath, but he was even calling God his own Father, making himself equal with God. ‭‭John‬ ‭5‬:‭16‬-‭18‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Rest in me. Don't allow the enemy to cause you to become distracted. He would lead you on the way to everlasting death. He would take your focus away from the way for you to be going. Seek me. Consume my written word. Within it is the pathway for life. I am the healer which you need.

One who was there had been an invalid for thirty-eight years. When Jesus saw him lying there and learned that he had been in this condition for a long time, he asked him, “Do you want to get well?” “Sir,” the invalid replied, “I have no one to help me into the pool when the water is stirred. While I am trying to get in, someone else goes down ahead of me.” Then Jesus said to him, “Get up! Pick up your mat and walk.” At once the man was cured; he picked up his mat and walked. The day on which this took place was a Sabbath, ‭‭John‬ ‭5‬:‭5‬-‭9‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Pick up the pieces from your life and give them to me. Leave your anxiety covered in my peace. Become sure of me. I have more for you. Are you ready to see with my vision? You will see the results as you respond in faith.

He says, “Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.” The Lord Almighty is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress. ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭46‬:‭10‬-‭11‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Learn the power of your speech. Those words carry life or death. They affect you and those others you are around. Let them reflect my heart. Learn my voice. Become who I have created you to become. Listen for my guiding you throughout your day.

The Lord will fight for you while you keep silent. ‭‭Exodus‬ ‭14‬:‭14‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬ Allow me to wash and refresh you. My grace remains. It is a covering for you. Come and sit with me. My protection is the healing you need. Allow me to fight your battles.

When Jesus came down from the mountain, large crowds followed Him. And a leper came to Him and bowed down before Him, and said, “Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean.” Jesus stretched out His hand and touched him, saying, “I am willing; be cleansed.” And immediately his leprosy was cleansed. And Jesus said to him, “See that you tell no one; but go, show yourself to the priest and present the offering that Moses commanded, as a testimony to them.” ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭8‬:‭1‬-‭4‬ ‭NASB1995 Set aside the stress and racket of your day. Allow me to reach inside of you and give you peace. I am willing to release wholeness and healing into your life. Are you ready? Will you receive what is yours? Come and sit with me. My peace is here for you.

At that time the Feast of the Dedication took place at Jerusalem; it was winter, and Jesus was walking in the temple in the portico of Solomon. The Jews then gathered around Him, and were saying to Him, “How long will You keep us in suspense? If You are the Christ, tell us plainly.” Jesus answered them, “I told you, and you do not believe; the works that I do in My Father’s name, these testify of Me. But you do not believe because you are not of My sheep My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me; and I give eternal life to them, and they will never perish; and no one will snatch them out of My hand. My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of the Father’s hand. I and the Father are one.” ‭‭John‬ ‭10‬:‭22‬-‭30‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬ Be ready for more. I am reopening areas in your life which have been closed. There are things which once flowed fresh and strong, then simple dried up. My sheep listen to my voice. They know and...

He came to Jesus one night and said to him, “Rabbi, we know that God has sent you as a teacher. No one can perform the miracles you perform unless God is with him.” Jesus replied to Nicodemus, “I can guarantee this truth: No one can see God’s kingdom without being born from above.” ‭‭John‬ ‭3‬:‭2‬-‭3‬ ‭GW‬‬ Don't rush, but wait there where you are. Listen for my guidance. I will draw you to me. Be settled with me; learn my ways. Close out the noise of your day. Allow my peace to work within your life. It is time to begin a new chapter. It is time to begin again, fully dependent upon me and the words I have shared with you. Now walk forward.

After six days Jesus took Peter, James and John with him and led them up a high mountain, where they were all alone. There he was transfigured before them. His clothes became dazzling white, whiter than anyone in the world could bleach them. And there appeared before them Elijah and Moses, who were talking with Jesus. Peter said to Jesus, “Rabbi, it is good for us to be here. Let us put up three shelters—one for you, one for Moses and one for Elijah.” (He did not know what to say, they were so frightened.) Then a cloud appeared and covered them, and a voice came from the cloud: “This is my Son, whom I love. Listen to him!” Suddenly, when they looked around, they no longer saw anyone with them except Jesus. ‭‭Mark‬ ‭9‬:‭2‬-‭8‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Move over. Get into your correct lane so I can take you where you should be going. You can become what I already see within you. Draw nearer and reflect my glory. In the proper time you will sprout. My seed is within you. Re ready for what I have for you. W...

The Lord spoke to Moses: ‘Speak to the Israelites and tell them: I am the Lord your God. Do not follow the practices of the land of Egypt, where you used to live, or follow the practices of the land of Canaan, where I am bringing you. You must not follow their customs. You are to practice my ordinances and you are to keep my statutes by following them; I am the Lord your God. Keep my statutes and ordinances; a person will live if he does them. I am the Lord. ‭‭Leviticus‬ ‭18‬:‭1‬-‭5‬ ‭CSBA‬‬ ‬‬ Sit where you are and listen. All about you is my creation. It calls out to me. You can join in with it, as you too are mine. I have redeemed you. Don't rush through your day. Listen for me to lead you. My word is alive. Consume it each day. Become filled with me and satisfied. Learn my voice. I am yet speaking to you.

I will stand at my guard post and station myself on the lookout tower. I will watch to see what he will say to me and what I should reply about my complaint. The Lord answered me: Write down this vision; clearly inscribe it on tablets so that one may easily read it. For the vision is yet for the appointed time; it testifies about the end and will not lie. Though it delays, wait for it, since it will certainly come and not be late. Look, his ego is inflated; he is without integrity. But the righteous one will live by his faith. ‭‭Habakkuk‬ ‭2‬:‭1‬-‭4‬ ‭CSBA

While he was in Jerusalem during the Passover Festival, many believed in his name when they saw the signs he was doing. Jesus, however, would not entrust himself to them, since he knew them all and because he did not need anyone to testify about man; for he himself knew what was in man. ‭‭John‬ ‭2‬:‭23‬-‭25‬ ‭CSBA‬‬ Stop what you are doing. Don't allow the enemy to distract you. He would draw attention to those things which do not matter. He is a destroyer. Close your eyes and await for me. Let your spirit listen for what I have for you. Walk with me throughout your day. Become whole. Reach out to me. Give me your anxieties and failures. Allow me to share with you a cover of peace which comes from me.

Now there was a man in Jerusalem whose name was Simeon, and this man was righteous and devout, waiting for the consolation of Israel, and the Holy Spirit was upon him. It was revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he would not die before he had seen the Lord’s Christ. Led by the Spirit, he came into the temple. And when the parents brought in the Child Jesus, to do for Him according to the custom of the law, he received Him in his arms and blessed God and said: “Lord, now let Your servant depart in peace, according to Your word; for my eyes have seen Your salvation which You have prepared in the sight of all people, a light for revelation to the Gentiles, and the glory of Your people Israel.” ‭‭Luke‬ ‭2‬:‭25‬-‭32‬ ‭MEV‬‬ Wherever you find yourself, I am there. You do not need to hide your feelings, but rely upon me. Sit in the quiet with me. I remain the I AM. Come within my safety. Come with me and walk the pathway I have for you. Remove the distractions and hear me clearly. Yes, I a...

Then he instructed them to organize the crowd and have them sit down in groups on the grass. So they had them sit down in groups of hundreds and fifties. Then Jesus took the five loaves and two fish, gazed into heaven, and gave thanks to God. He broke the bread and the two fish and distributed them to his disciples to serve the people— and the food was multiplied in front of their eyes! Everyone had plenty to eat and was fully satisfied. Then the twelve disciples picked up what remained, and each of them ended up with a basket full of leftovers! Altogether, five thousand families were fed that day!” ‭‭Mark‬ ‭6‬:‭39‬-‭44‬ ‭TPT‬‬ Come closer. I am waiting here to bless you. Reach out to me and believe. See my heart move for those yet lost, those who do not know my son. I am your Father. I wish to bless you. Walk in my way of life.

When God created the heavens and the earth, the earth was completely formless and empty, with nothing but darkness draped over the deep. God’s Spirit hovered over the face of the waters. And then God announced, “Let there be light,” and light burst forth! And God saw the light as pleasing and beautiful; he used the light to dispel the darkness. ‭‭Genesis‬ ‭1‬:‭1‬-‭4‬ ‭TPT‬‬ Allow me to dispel the darkness in your life. The enemy seeks to wrap you tightly in his dark ways. I am the light which you seek. I am yet the way to life. Walk with me and find the pathway. I am there. Continue forward. Consume my written word.

Jesus again crossed to the other side of the Sea of Galilee in a boat. A large crowd gathered around him by the seashore. A synagogue leader named Jairus also arrived. When he saw Jesus, he quickly bowed down in front of him. He begged Jesus, “My little daughter is dying. Come, lay your hands on her so that she may get well and live.” Jesus went with the man. ‭‭Mark‬ ‭5‬:‭21‬-‭24a‬ ‭GW‬‬ Come to me. Bring your needs, leaving them for me. Your faith in me allows me to release what is needed. I remain the healer. In me is life everlasting. Come boldly before me. I will impart to you what is needed. It can grow as you walk in my way, reaching out to others.

This is the meaning of the parable: The seed is the word of God. Those along the path are the ones who hear, and then the devil comes and takes away the word from their hearts, so that they may not believe and be saved. Those on the rocky ground are the ones who receive the word with joy when they hear it, but they have no root. They believe for a while, but in the time of testing they fall away. The seed that fell among thorns stands for those who hear, but as they go on their way they are choked by life’s worries, riches and pleasures, and they do not mature. But the seed on good soil stands for those with a noble and good heart, who hear the word, retain it, and by persevering produce a crop. ‭‭Luke‬ ‭8‬:‭11‬-‭15‬ ‭NIV Don't rush through your day, but enjoy the sites I bring before you. Watch and expect me to talk with you. See the creation through the eyes I have given you. I am there. Learn to trust in me. Walk in the way I have given you.

Follow the way of love and eagerly desire gifts of the Spirit, especially prophecy. For anyone who speaks in a tongue does not speak to people but to God. Indeed, no one understands them; they utter mysteries by the Spirit. But the one who prophesies speaks to people for their strengthening, encouraging and comfort. ‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭14‬:‭1‬-‭3‬ ‭NIV‬‬ Don't rush ahead, but use the days to prepare. Become whom you are to become. Allow me to develop you into my image. Watch for my hand of direction. Move that way with me. You will hear me clearly if you listen.
