Listen to the sounds all about you. Each one unique, identifiable to me. You too carry my uniqueness, created in my likeness. Follow the clues I leave for you. They will help lead you into your pathway of my direction.

The purpose of my instruction is that all believers would be filled with love that comes from a pure heart, a clear conscience, and genuine faith. 1 Timothy 1:5 (NLT)

In his grace, God has given us different gifts for doing certain things well. So if God has given you the ability to prophesy, speak out with as much faith as God has given you. If your gift is serving others, serve them well. If you are a teacher, teach well. If your gift is to encourage others, be encouraging. If it is giving, give generously. If God has given you leadership ability, take the responsibility seriously. And if you have a gift for showing kindness to others, do it gladly. ‭‭Romans‬ ‭12:6-8‬ ‭(NLT‬‬)

Let the oppressed eat and be filled! Let those who seek his help praise the Lord! May you live forever! Let all the people of the earth acknowledge the Lord and turn to him! Let all the nations worship you! For the Lord is king and rules over the nations. All of the thriving people of the earth will join the celebration and worship; all those who are descending into the grave will bow before him, including those who cannot preserve their lives. ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭22:26-29‬ ‭(NET)

Awaken your inner self, know the seasons and the times. It is not a time for fear, but of moving when I prompt you. I will place the words within your mouth. I will direct you as you follow after my ways. My protection will shield you from the lies and arrows of the enemy. Then in the midst of the assembly, the Lord’s Spirit came upon Jachaziel son of Zechariah, son of Benaiah, son of Jeiel, son of Mattaniah, a Levite and descendant of Asaph. He said: “Pay attention, all you people of Judah, residents of Jerusalem, and King Jehoshaphat! This is what the Lord says to you: ‘Don’t be afraid and don’t panic  because of this huge army! For the battle is not yours, but God’s. ‭‭2 Chronicles‬ ‭20:14-15‬ ‭(NET)

May the Lord answer you when you are in trouble; may the God of Jacob make you secure! May he send you help from his temple; from Zion may he give you support! May he take notice of your offerings; may he accept your burnt sacrifice! (Selah) May he grant your heart’s desire; may he bring all your plans to pass! Then we will shout for joy over your victory; we will rejoice in the name of our God! May the Lord grant all your requests! Now I am sure that the Lord will deliver his chosen king; he will intervene for him from his holy heavenly temple, and display his mighty ability to deliver. Some trust in chariots and others in horses, but we depend on the Lord our God. They will fall down, but we will stand firm. The Lord will deliver the king; he will answer us when we call to him for help! ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭20:1-9‬ ‭(NET‬‬)

Awaken yourself. Don’t be caught in the distractions. Take the time to listen for me. Learn the ways I am communicating with you. Feel the reality of my presence. Taste the sweetness of my smile. I am ever-present. Recognize my gentle wooing.

Here is a reminder from July 2011 The words I have spoken are unchanged. They are as my name, unchangeable. I have written my ways into your being. They are inscribed upon your heart before you were known by others. They will come to pass as you continue to walk in my light. Within you is a great light. It is a light to affect the world, dispelling darkness where you go. You shall speak my truth in love and it will liberate the captives. Healing and wholeness will appear where once was only desperation and fear. You are my people, created in my image. Go in peace, setting free those held in bondage. For I am the Lord your God, Who stirs up the sea so that its waves roar and Who by rebuke restrains it—the Lord of hosts is His name. And I have put My words in your mouth and have covered you with the shadow of My hand, that I may fix the [new] heavens as a tabernacle and lay the foundations of a [new] earth and say to Zion, You are My people. Isaiah 51:15-16 (AMP )

I have known you from the beginning. Each day I await you to seek me. I hide in plain site so as not to discourage your seeking. Look for me. Come closer and I’ll bless you with my presence. My wisdom and love flows over you, softening you.

But there is nothing [so carefully] concealed that it will not be revealed, nor so hidden that it will not be made known. For that reason, whatever you have said in the dark will be heard in the light, and what you have whispered behind closed doors will be proclaimed on the housetops. ‭‭Luke‬ ‭12:2-3‬ (‭AMP)

Learn to distinguish my voice from the others. Know without a doubt My way and follow my leading. Fear not, but walk in faith as I guide you. Ask and I will show you the way.

When Solomon had finished praying, fire came down from heaven and consumed the burnt offering and the sacrifices, and the glory of the Lord filled the temple. The priests were unable to enter the house of the Lord, because the glory of the Lord had filled it. When all the Israelites saw the fire coming down and the glory of the Lord above the temple, they bowed down on the pavement with their faces to the ground, and they worshiped and gave thanks to the Lord: For He is good; His loving devotion endures forever. ‭‭2 Chronicles‬ ‭7:1-3‬ ‭(BSB) ‬‬

Prayer of Solomon as Ark brought into the Temple Now, my God, may Your eyes be open and Your ears attentive to the prayer offered in this place. Now therefore, arise, O Lord God, and enter Your resting place, You and the ark of Your might. May Your priests, O Lord God, be clothed with salvation, and may Your godly ones rejoice in goodness. O Lord God, do not reject Your anointed one. Remember Your loving devotion to Your servant David. 2 Chronicles 6:40-42 (BSB)

Awaken yourself and begin to use your cents/senses. I will draw you into the places for you to grow and flourish. I will open new areas for you to learn and explore. Let there be no fear, but new boldness as you speak my name and what I give you to say.

Learn to trust in me. Move forward in what I am saying to you. And God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] said unto Moshe [He Who Draws Out Of The Waters]: Ehyeh Asher Ehyeh [I am/will be what I am/will be] and he said, “Thus shall youi say unto the people of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God]: ‘Ehyeh [I Am or I Will Be] …has sent me unto you.”” ‭‭Exodus‬ ‭3:14‬ ‭(New Messianic Version‬‬) God said to Moses, “I AM WHO I AM. This is what you are to say to the Israelites: ‘I AM has sent me to you.’” God also told Moses, “Say to the Israelites, ‘The Lord, the God of your fathers —the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob—has sent me to you.’ This is My name forever, and this is how I am to be remembered in every generation. Go, assemble the elders of Israel and say to them, ‘The Lord, the God of your fathers —the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob—has appeared to me and said: I have surely attended to you and have seen what has been done to you in Egypt. And I...

If you love Me, you will keep My commandments. I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may be with you forever; that is the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it does not see Him or know Him, but you know Him because He abides with you and will be in you. I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you. ‭‭John‬ ‭14:15-18‬ ‭(NASB)

Ask for directions and be ready to receive them. Follow-through with what you are given. Don’t hesitate.

So it was not by obeying the laws in Moses’ Teachings that Abraham or his descendants received the promise that he would inherit the world. Rather, he received this promise through God’s approval that comes by faith. If those who obey Moses’ Teachings are the heirs, then faith is useless and the promise is worthless. The laws in Moses’ Teachings bring about anger. But where those laws don’t exist, they can’t be broken. Therefore, the promise is based on faith so that it can be a gift. Consequently, the promise is guaranteed for every descendant, not only for those who are descendants by obeying Moses’ Teachings but also for those who are descendants by believing as Abraham did. He is the father of all of us, ‭‭Romans‬ ‭4:13-16a‬ ‭(GW)

But as for us, Yahweh is our God, and we have not forsaken him. We have priests serving Yahweh, the sons of Aaron, and the Levites in their work; and they burn to Yahweh every morning and every evening burnt offerings and sweet incense. They also set the show bread in order on the pure table; a nd the lamp stand of gold with its lamps, to burn every evening; for we keep the instruction of Yahweh our God, but you have forsaken him. Behold, God is with us at our head, and his priests with the trumpets of alarm to sound an alarm against you. Children of Israel, don’t fight against Yahweh, the God of your fathers; for you will not prosper. ‭‭2 Chronicles‬ ‭13:10-12‬ ‭(WEB‬‬)

Be my voice and allow my ways to guide you. Walk in the ways I show you. Reach out in truth and kindness. Learn my strength and be strong in me, my reflection. Let me guide you through the pathways and avoid the traps my enemy has set for you. Proclaim my truth in love.
