Reach Down

-

That night Jacob got up and took his two wives,
his two female servants and his eleven sons and
crossed the ford of the Jabbok.
After he had sent them across the stream,
he sent over all his possessions.
So Jacob was left alone, and a man wrestled
with him till daybreak. When the man saw
that he could not overpower him,
he touched the socket of Jacob’s hip
so that his hip was wrenched as he wrestled
with the man. Then the man said,
“Let me go, for it is daybreak.”
But Jacob replied,
“I will not let you go unless you bless me.”
The man asked him, “What is your name?”
“Jacob,” he answered.
Then the man said, “Your name will no longer be Jacob,
but Israel, because you have struggled with God
and with humans and have overcome.”
Jacob said, “Please tell me your name.”
But he replied, “Why do you ask my name?”
Then he blessed him there.
‭‭Genesis‬ ‭32‬:‭22‬-‭29‬ ‭NIV‬‬



I have not forgotten the changes I have
placed before you. You reached over and
picked them up from the ground. Again I
release reminders of my love and direction
for your life.

Reach down. Yes, it is me. I am yet guiding
you in your journey.

My Reflection

Then Simon Peter came along behind him and went straight into the tomb. He saw the strips of linen lying there, as well as the cloth that had been wrapped around Jesus’ head. The cloth was still lying in its place, separate from the linen. Finally the other disciple, who had reached the tomb  first, also went inside. He saw and believed. (They still did not understand from Scripture that Jesus had to rise from the dead.) Then  the disciples went back to where they were staying. ‭‭John‬ ‭20‬:‭6‬-‭10‬ ‭(NIV‬‬) I am alive and remain unchanged. Come sit with me. Allow my healing to flow over and through you. Allow my wisdom to guide and direct you in the way you should walk. I am your example. Grow, share and reflect me to others.

My Peace and Healing

-
When you pray, don’t be like the hypocrites who love to pray publicly on street corners and in the synagogues where everyone can see them. I tell you the truth, that is all the reward they will ever get. But when you pray, go away by yourself, shut the door behind you, and pray to your Father in private. Then your Father, who sees everything, will reward you. ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭6‬:‭5‬-‭6‬ ‭(NLT) Don't be surprised when I send people to you for prayer. Allow me to reach out through you to touch them.‬‬ I will give you the words which they need. I will work my ways through you. Speak my peace and healing into their lives.

Walk With Me

Now as Jesus was passing by, he saw a man who had been blind from birth. His disciples asked him, “Rabbi, who committed the sin that caused him to be born blind, this man or his parents?” Jesus answered, “Neither this man nor his parents sinned, but he was born blind so that the acts of God may be revealed through what happens to him. We must perform the deeds of the one who sent me as long as it is daytime. Night is coming when no one can work. As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.” Having said this, he spat on the ground and made some mud with the saliva. He smeared the mud on the blind man’s eyes and said to him, “Go wash in the pool of Siloam” (which is translated “sent”). So the blind man went away and washed, and came back seeing.” ‭‭John‬ ‭9‬:‭1‬-‭7‬ ‭(NET‬‬) I am your strength. I am your shelter. Yes, I am all which you need. Allow me to guide you in the journey. Learn to walk secure with me. Don't be surprised nor discouraged by the enemy sets for you....
