INSTRUCTION

Many in your culture today go to YouTube or the computer to find information on how to do some project or solve some problem. However, My Word has the information you need for living a fruitful life.

My servant Paul wrote to Timothy these words: "All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:

That the man of God may be  perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all  good works." Make sure to daily read and heed My Word.  When you do, you will receive the instructions for a joyful, fruitful life.

2 TIMOTHY 3:16-17

BELLY

On the last "Great Day" of the Feast of Tabernacles, I stood on the Temple steps and cried out loudly this invitation: "If any man thirst, let him come to me, and drink."

This invitation was for all those who believed on Me. Those who accepted this invitation to receive the living water of My Holy Spirit would receive rivers of living water.

That living water is available today for everyone who believes in Me.  My invitation is always open to all who want to receive the flow of My Spirit from their belly (the inner spirit).

JOHN 7:37-38

SUSTAIN

My servant David wrote, "I laid me down and slept; I awakened; for the LORD sustained me. I am the One Who sustains you daily.

I am the life and without Me, you would not have life.  I created you and when you were born I was there to breathe My breath into you.

Remember always that I have sustaining power.  I sustain the whole earth and I sustain every living thing in it.  Trust Me to sustain you each day and ask My Holy Spirit to breathe His fresh anointing into you.

PSALM 3:5 

ENLARGE

As you depend upon Me to guide and direct you, I will make sure that the next step of faith you take will lead to what I want you to do.

You never have to be anxious about missing the daily guidance I give you as you listen to My Holy Spirit and take the steps of faith that He wants you to take.

None of your steps of faith will fail because you will not slip down.  I enlarge those steps of faith by going before you and preparing the way.  I am the way.

PSALM 18:36

UNITED

 I desire for My body (the church on earth) to be united in the bond of peace.  I am now in the process of forming My remnant.

Not everyone who calls themselves Christians know Me.  There is a great falling away in the season you are experiencing now.

However, many who have just had the name Christian are turning to Me in true repentance.  Pray for this great harvest time when many will be convicted to turn to Me with their whole heart.

EPHESIANS 4:3

RESTORE

David prayed a prayer that you and all My beloved can pray daily.  He prayed: "Restore unto me the joy of Your salvation, and uphold me with Your free spirit."

David had just confessed and repented of the sins of murder and adultery.  His confession and repentance cleared the way for Me to minister to him and restore his joy.  I could uphold him with My free Spirit.

David did what I long for you and all My beloved to do.  When you try to hide your sins rather than confess and repent of your sins, you will have neither peace or joy.  Confess your sins quickly to Me.

PSALM 51:12

STRONG

 It is My joy that gives you strength.  The days ahead may be difficult, but I want you to be both strong in faith and strong in My strength.

Do not rely upon your own strength.  I am a mighty God Who loves to strengthen those who need strength.  

All you have to do is cry out to Me.  I will hear your cry and deliver you from you enemies.  I have armies of angels ready to fight for you.  Speak My Word out loud and they will come to your aid.

PSALM 103:20

STEWARDS

I am calling you and those in My body on earth to be good stewards of My Word.  I want you to know just how to feed My sheep.

My parable of the Good Steward speaks about how that steward knew just the right amount of meat to give to those he was serving.

When you share My Word with others, ask My Holy Spirit how to deliver My Word to the listener.  Sometimes people are not ready to receive a hard word or too much of My Word at one time.

MATTHEW 25:45-46

BREATHED

After I was resurrected I met with the disciples and I breathed My Spirit (the Holy Spirit) into them. I also gave them their priestly ministry.

I said, ""Whosesoever sins you remit, they are remitted to them, and whosesoever sins you retain, they are retained."

I wanted them to understand that they could confess the sins of others to Me and I would forgive them. This is a priestly role that every believer has.  Intercede for the people you know who have sinned.

JOHN 20:22-23

SUN

From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same the LORD's name is to be praised. I desire for you to praise me throughout your day.

When the sun comes up and when the sun goes down tomorrow, notice how the birds I created sing the loudest at those times.

The birds sing their praises to Me at sunrise and sunset.  I want you to sing along with them as you greet Me tomorrow and say good night to Me shortly after sunset.

PSALM 113:3

EXCELLENT

Paul exhorted the Philippian church to approve those things that are excellent. He had just shared what was the most excellent thing and it is love.

My greatest desire is that you not only love people, but also that you love My Word and you love doing My will.

My Word and My love are both excellent and eternal. When you see Me face to face, you will experience the height, depth, breadth, and length of My love.  Ask Me to help you understand how much I love you.

PHILIPPIANS 1:10

UTTERANCE

 Paul prayed for the church at Corinth to not come behind in any gift.  He knew that it was the grace that I gave the church that enabled them to use the gifts My Holy Spirit gave them.

He also prayed that they would be enriched by Me, and in in all utterance.  He was praying that My grace and and the knowledge of My Word would govern what they said to others.

As you study My Word, you will see that I spoke only the things My Father gave Me to speak.  Pray that My Holy Spirit will help you to only speak those things that will edify others and enrich them.

1 CORINTHIANS 1:4-7

STRIVE

As I went through the cities and villages around the Galilee, one person came and asked Me this question: LORD are there few that be saved?"

I responded, "Strive to enter in at the strait gate for many, I say to you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able."

No man will come to Me unless My Father draws them.  Pray for this harvest time that many will respond to My Father as He draws them to know Me.

LUKE 13:22-23

HUMBLE

Yom Kippur is a day to humble your soul.  It is your soul that needs to be changed.  Repentance is a change of your mind. True repentance means that you turn from and go towards something.

I desire for you to turn from all the distractions this world offers and turn your affections heavenward. I desire for you to turn from pleasuring yourself to pleasuring Me.

Tomorrow is the day after Yom Kippur.  Tomorrow offer your morning, your day, and even your evening to Me.  Commit your will, your way, and your works to Me.  Joy and peace will then be your reward. 

PSALM 37:5; PROVERBS 16:3

FIND

I said that whoever saves his life shall lose it; and whoever will lose his life for My sake, shall find it. Every day of your life you have a choice to die to your flesh and to live for Me.

Daily you need to reckon yourself dead to your flesh and live to please Me instead of living to please yourself (your flesh).

Tomorrow is a day of repentance for the Jewish people all over the world.  It is Yom Kippur.  Pray for the Jewish people to repent and turn to Me and live for Me instead of living for themselves.

MATTHEW 16:25

UNSPEAKABLE

My servant Peter wrote that even though you cannot see Me, you can rejoice with unspeakable joy because My Word reveals to you how much I love you.

Do not ever doubt My love for you or that I know you intimately.  I want you to grow in your intimacy with Me by spending time in My presence.  Take time to hear Me speak to you.

So many of My beloved are so busy, that they do not spend quality time with Me.  Pray for yourself and all those who you love to set aside a time every day that they can draw close to Me.

1 PETER 1:8

EVERLASTING

Isaiah prophesied centuries before I came to earth that there would be a time when the ransomed (redeemed) of the LORD would return and come to Zion with songs and everlasting joy upon them.

This prophecy was looking forward to My return.  Even though there will be a time of peace in Israel during the day you are living now, there will be no everlasting peace until I return to earth.

Look forward to My return.  In the meantime, pray diligently that the leaders of Israel and America and many other nations will sign a successful peace agreement that will usher in a temporary peace

ISAIAH 35:10

ACCEPTABLE

I came to earth as a flesh man.  I am God in the flesh.  My Father wanted Me, His only begotten Son, to  come to earth so that He could identify with the flesh people on earth.

I gave My body as the perfect sacrifice to redeem people on earth from their sins.  I won the victory on the cross when I defeated Satan. Those who are born again now are enforcing this victory on earth.

I also came to preach the acceptable year of the LORD.  Only My Father knows the day and hour I will return. Until then, I want you to preach the gospel of the kingdom and to glorify My Father in heaven.

LUKE 4:18-19

STRONG

You are living in the season of time when many are falling away from their faith.  This is why I want you to abide in My Word daily.

I am the bread of life and My Word is also your spiritual bread.  When you abide in Me, My Word, and My love, you will remain strong in faith.

Abraham remained strong in faith even though he had to wait many years before he received the son I promised him.  He did not stagger in his belief because he believed that what I promised, I would fulfill.

ROMANS 4:20

BITTERNESS

Paul exhorted the Ephesians church to let all bitterness and wrath and anger, and clamor and evil speaking be put away from you, with all malice.

Then Paul challenged the church in Ephesus to be kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake has forgiven them.

I want you to pray that there will be a sweep of revival in your cities, states, and nation that will produce My love and righteousness once again in your government and also in the church.

EPHESIANS 4:31-32

LONG SUFFERING

I am  long suffering, and I never give up pursuing people to tell them about My power to redeem those who have sinned. Today I live within you and all believers who now share the gospel of My Kingdom.

My long suffering was manifested just after I was crucified and resurrected. I went and preached the spirits who were in prison in a place called paradise. They had not lived to hear My plan of redemption.

I did not give up on those who had died in the flood.  I preached to them and gave them the opportunity to believe in Me. I told the thief on the cross next to Me that I would see him in paradise and I did.

1 PETER 3:18-20

GRACE

It was by grace that you were saved.  There are many definitions for grace.  Grace is the supernatural ability to do what is impossible in the natural.

It was the power of My Holy Spirit that gave great boldness to my disciples after My resurrection.  That boldness even increased after Stephen was martyred.

My Word records, "And with great power gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the LORD Jesus: and great grace was upon them all (Acts4:33).  Pray daily for My grace to operate through you.

EPHESIANS 2:8; ACTS 4:33

UNTIL

Until now, the tares and the wheat have been growing together. The tares represent those who are not true believers and the wheat represent true believers. 

You are now experiencing the beginning of the last great harvest when I will first gather the tares, and bind them in bundles and burn them. Later I will gather the wheat into My barn.

This separation is taking place now as you see many falling away from their faith in Me. Pray for many to come to believe in Me during this harvest time.

MATTHEW 13:30

MINISTER

I came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give My life as a ransom for many. There were those who did minister to Me while I walked on Earth, and I was ever so grateful for their ministry to Me.

I gave My life so that you might have life.  After you received Me as LORD of your life, I then was able to minister to others through you by the anointing of My Holy Spirit.

There is a way that you can minister to Me daily.  Whenever you surrender your day, your way, and your will to Me in prayer, you are ministering to Me.  Just spending quality time with Me ministers to Me also.

MARK 10:45 

FIND

 Early in My ministry on earth I gave these three promises. "For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, it shall be opened.

Ask, Seek, Knock is what is required to come into an intimate relationship with Me.  Pray for the unsaved to ASK Me to come into their hearts. Pray for them to SEEK Me with all their hearts.

Pray that they will KNOCK on the door that will reveal My love to them.  The promise is that when you pray this prayer believing and receiving with faith for the unsaved, they will FIND ME. 

MATTHEW 7:8

ENDURES

My Word makes it clear that two things endure forever.  My Word which is the Word of Truth and My mercy will endure forever.

There are only a few things that you can take to heaven with you when you leave this earth.  You will be able to take My Word  that you have studied into heaven and that study will continue.

Pray for those who have never read My Word.  My Word is the text book on how to live a fruitful life.  Pray that because of My mercy, many on earth will once again value My Word and study it.

PSALM 100:5

SIFT

 Many are asking what will happen with the war in Israel. My Word tells you what is happening. The prophet Amos spoke of how I would sift Israel. This is what is happening now.

"For, lo, I will command, and I will sift the house of Israel among all nations, like as  corn is sifted in a sieve, yet shall not the least grain fall upon the earth (Amos (9:9)."

This is harvest time.  Amos said, "Behold, the days come, says the LORD, that the plowman shall overtake the reaper...." Take heart and do not be discouraged.  I am doing a short work in the earth.

AMOS 9:9, 13-15

JUSTICE

I judge the hearts of men and I do justice. I also am merciful. David wrote: "Justice and judgment are the habitation of My throne: mercy and truth shall go before My face."

I always mete My judgments with mercy.  Only I can see the hearts of men.  You cannot.  However, you can judge a person by their godly fruits.

I would that none perish, but that all would come to repentance.  Pray for the salvation of those who have yet to be born again. Pray that they receive My salvation so that they can bear much fruit before they die.

PSALM 89:14

DISCIPLINE

The word, "discipline" has the beginning of the word, "disciple."  If you want to disciple others, you must be disciplined. The good news is that you can ask My Holy Spirit to help you discipline yourself.

It truly takes the help of My Holy Spirit to discipline yourself because your flesh resists even the word, "discipline."  I want you to discipline yourself to abide in Me, My Word, and My love.

If you truly want to disciple others, ask My Holy Spirit help you to daily read, memorize, meditate and obey My Word.  Ask Him to place My love in your heart.  Ask Him to form My character in you.

ROMANS 8:26

DEEDS

The day will come when I will render to every man according to his deeds.  To those who know Me, the deeds that have been done through Me will be rewarded.

The works and deeds that I desired for you to do were written in your Book of Life before you were born. They were written even before the foundation of the earth.

There are works that I designed for you to accomplish in your life on earth.  You are My workmanship created in Me to do good works.  Ask My Holy Spirit daily to help you accomplish these works.

ROMANS 2:6;  EPHESIANS 2:10

RECEIVE

Your responsibility is to share the truths of My gospel - the gospel of the kingdom of God with others. Whether they receive what you share is not your responsibility.  It is Mine.

My beloved cousin was told that many were coming to Me.  John made it clear that he was not the Messiah. Then he said, "A man can receive nothing, except it be given him from heaven."

No man will come to Me unless My Father draws him.  Pray that My Father will draw those you love to receive Me as their LORD and SAVIOR.

JOHN 3:27

SHORT

There is no question that you are in the last days now.  Have I not said that I will do a short work in these dark days?  Yes, I am true to My Word.

I am saving a remnant of true believers in all nations.  This includes Gentile and Jewish true believers.

Isaiah prophesied this about Israel.  He spoke: "For He (Me) will finish the work, and cut it short in righteousness: because a short work will the LORD make upon the earth."

ROMANS 9:27-33

HEARTS

I am the only One Who can change men's hearts.  I can soften hearts and I can harden hearts.  I want you to pray for your enemies.  

I know how very hard it is for you to pray for your enemies, but understand that I want them to come to know Me also.  

Lift the hearts of your enemies up to Me and ask Me to place My love in their hearts.  My Holy Spirit can do this. When you pray for your enemies, you are praying according to My will and I hear you.

ROMANS 5:5

EXHORTATION

The gift of exhortation is a gift of My Holy Spirit that all of the church needs during these dark end times.  So much evil is being exposed that sometimes I know it is hard to comprehend such wickedness.

I want to exhort you during these times when it seems the whole world is falling apart to keep your eyes upon Me.  I am Your hope and that hope will help anchor your soul from wavering with doubt.

Barnabas, one of My beloved disciples, was a great exhorter.  When he reached Antioch, he exhorted the church to: "with purpose of heart to cleave to Me."  Cleave to Me during these times.

ACTS 11:22-23

PRINCIPALITIES

Daily you are in a battle.  Satan's army includes principalities, powers, rulers of darkness, and wickedness in high places. Principalities are the demonic princes over cities, countries, and nations.  

The good news is that I have won the victory over all of Satan's army.  My Word says this: "And having spoiled principalities and powers, He made a show of them openly, triumphing over them in it."

As a soldier in My army, you are called to enforce the victory daily by using My keys to the kingdom and warfare prayer.  You are seated with Me far above those principalities.  You have authority over them.

COLOSSIANS 2:15; EPHESIANS 6:12

CONTINUE

My servant Paul exhorted the Colossian church to continue in the faith grounded and settled.  He warned them not to be moved away from the hope of the gospel.

This is also My prayer and exhortation for you.  Hold on to the faith that you were given to believe that I am the Christ, the Son of the living God.

I gave you the faith to believe in Me, and now it is up to you to continue in faith, always believing in the hope that is the anchor to your soul.  Continue in faith, and you will be presented unblameable in My sight.

COLOSSIANS 1:22-23

IMMEDIATELY

My beloved Mark recorded many of My journeys when I was on earth.  As he wrote in his journal about those journeys, he included the word, "immediately."

When you have time re-read the gospel of Mark and count how many times he says "immediately." Mark was aware that this gospel he wrote had to have an immediate impact upon those who read it.

He felt that My return would be immediate.  This is why not even I know the day of My return.  Only My Father knows.  However, I want you to know and prepare yourself for my immediate return every day.

MARK 6:50

SEARCH

Pray for those you know and love who have  yet to understand the value of My Word.  They do not realize that the only way they can resist Satan is by speaking My Word (the Sword of the Spirit) out loud.

Pray that My Holy Spirit will give them a hunger for My Word.  Pray for My Holy Spirit to open the eyes of their understanding. Some may have a knowledge of My Word, but they lack understanding.

Pray that they will search for Me with all their hearts.  Pray that they will begin to search My Scriptures. My promise is that when they search for Me with all their hearts, they will find Me.

JEREMIAH 29:11-14

HAUGHTY

My beloved David confessed that  his heart was not haughty.  He wrote: "LORD, my heart is not haughty, nor mine eyes lofty, neither do I exercise myself in great matters, or in things too high for me."

David expressed My desire for every heart of those who believe in Me.  The world you live in today has so many distractions and so many directions that will pull your heart away from Me.

Pray today and every day that My Holy Spirit will  help you to place your affections on things above the earth instead of things in this world.  When you focus on Me, you will have peace and quiet in your soul.

PSALM 131:1; COLOSSIANS 3:2

ENDURES

"Blessed is the man who endures temptation for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which is promised to those who love Him.

It is no sin to be tempted.  You will be tempted to sin until your last breath is taken.  Satan and his demonic forces never give up.  This is why I told you exactly what to do when temptation comes to you.

The moment you hear the tempting suggestion by My enemy to give in to one of your lusts, take that thought captive immediately and give it to Me.  I will do battle for you, and you will endure temptation.

JOHN 1:12; 2 CORINTHIANS 10:3-6

GROW

Paul prayed: "That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive.

But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into Him in all things, who is the head, even Christ: 

You are My children and I do pray in agreement with Paul's prayer for all My beloved to grow up.  I have no greater joy than to see My beloved mature and become more like Me daily.

EPHESIANS 4:14-15

NAME

My name is above every name that is named on earth.  Whenever you are praying about an ailment you may have, put My name above it.

Whenever you have a problem with a name such as a financial problem, a relationship problem, or a job problem, put My name in prayer above that problem.

My name spoken will take away all fear.  My name spoken will interfere with the devil's plans.  My name spoken out loud will cause all of your anxiety to leave.  Lift up My name daily, and peace will come.

EPHESIANS 1:21

EVENTIDE

When I was on earth My disciples loved to go to Bethany where we often would find a place not only to eat, but also a place to rest when eventide came. We enjoyed fellowshipping with Lazarus and his sisters.

Even though we were all weary, I told My disciples that "I  must work the works of Him who sent Me, while it is day, the night comes, when no man can work." 

I say those same words to you and all my beloved on earth.  The eventide is coming very soon when you will no longer be able to work.  Pray that you will finish the assignments I give to you daily by eventide.

MARK 11:11; JOHN 9:4

FOUNDATION

I was with My Father even before the foundation of the world was created.  I prayed to My Father that I desired that all those My Father had given Me would also be with Me in heaven.

I prayed that those who believed in Me on earth might behold the same glory that My Father gave Me. I want you to know that you will be with Me in heaven and that you will see My glory.

While you are on earth, however, I want you to show forth the glory that I have already given you to all those you are with. My glory is My manifest presence on earth and you can manifest My presence daily.

JOHN 17

THANKS

I want you to never be anxious about anything.  Instead, I want you to pray about everything.  The moment you are anxious, begin to pray.

Pray about what you are anxious about, but pray with thanksgiving as you make your requests to Me. When you pray giving thanks to Me, you are demonstrating that you believe I will answer your request.

When you are going through trials, it is human nature to become anxious about your situation.  I want you to give Me thanks in everything even in your trials. This demonstrates your faith in Me to help you.

PHILIPPIANS 4:6; 1 THESSALONIANS 5:18

DESIRE

Most people desire to have a long life.  My beloved David the psalmist shared what is required to live a long life and to see many good days. 

The requirements are for you to keep your tongue from evil, your lips from speaking guile, depart from evil, do good, seek peace and pursue it.

Pray for all those you love to be filled with My Holy Spirit Who will help them to meet these requirements to live a long good life.

PSALM 34:12-14

STRETCH

My hand is not so short that it cannot save.  When My early disciples began to be persecuted, they cried out to Me to stretch forth My hand.

They prayed that I would give them boldness to speak My Word. By stretching forth My hand to heal, and that signs  and wonders may be done in My name.

After they prayed this prayer, the whole house was shaken where they were assembled together; and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and they spoke My Word with boldness.

ACTS 4: 29-31

STAND

You will only be able to stand against My enemy if you have your loins girded about with My truth. My adversary tempts you often to doubt My Word.

When My servant Paul described the armor you must wear daily, he listed those pieces of armor that were necessary to win every battle against Satan.  He said having done all, then you must stand for My truth.

My truth is your offensive weapon against My enemy.  The Helmet of Salvation is your defensive weapon. The mind is the devil's playground.  Do not open the gate of your mind to Satan when he tempts you.

EPHESIANS 6

ENTRANCE

My servant Peter gave a great list of those things that I desired for you to add to your faith.  They were virtue, knowledge, temperance, patience, godliness, brotherly kindness, and love.

He also exhorted believers to make their calling and election sure.  He said that if you add to your faith all these things he listed, you will have an abundant entrance into My everlasting kingdom..

He exhorted every believer to be diligent to do these things.  Ask the Holy Spirit daily to help you accomplish this list. My Spirit will enable you.  All you have to do is surrender your will to My will.

2 PETER 1

TESTIMONY

You are in the last days.  When My disciples asked what would be the sign of My coming again, I shared  with them that there would be great earth quakes, famines, and pestilences. You have seen this.

There also will be great persecutions.  I told them that they would be delivered up and put in prison and even brought before kings.  I told them that their persecutions would turn for them a testimony.

I told them not to think about what they might say to their adversaries.  I said that I would fill their mouths with such wisdom that even their adversaries would not be able to resist them. Pray for the persecuted.

LUKE 21:10-13

POWER

Sometimes you may feel powerless to help others, but I want you to always remember that I have given you the Spirit of power and that Spirit is My Holy Spirit.

I have sent "The Helper." My Holy Spirit is able to help you when you feel helpless.  My Spirit can give you wisdom and understanding, knowledge and the fear of the LORD, counsel and might.

Never hesitate to ask My Spirit of Power to empower you whenever you are facing difficult times or difficult people.  It is My joy to empower you.  You are never powerless.

2 TIMOTHY 1:7; ISAIAH 11:2

PURPOSE

When My servant Barnabas had the gift of exhortation.  He exhorted the believers in Antioch to with purpose of heart to cling to the LORD.

I give you and all my beloved the same exhortation today.  Cleave to Me with the purpose in your heart to do My will every day.

My purpose for all My believers is that they shine as lights in this dark world.  Let Your light so shine before men that they may see your good works and glorify My Father in heaven.

ACTS 11:23; MATTHEW 5:16

EYES

My eyes are always watching the righteous and My ears are always open to their prayers.  My face, however, is against evil.

Take comfort in these truths.  Nothing goes past My sight.  This is why people are not successful when they hide their sins from Me.  I want you and all My righteous ones to confess their sins to Me.

When you confess your sins, I am able to cleanse you from those sins and, of course, I have already forgiven you of your sins (past, present, and future) when I died to forgive the sins of the world.

1 PETER 3:12; PSALM 34:15

OPEN

 I want you always to have confidence that I hear your prayers and also that I am watching over you daily. Peter walked with Me while I was on earth and he knew me well.  He wrote the following about Me.

"For the eyes of the LORD are over the righteous, and His ears are open to their prayers: but the face of the LORD is against those who do evil."

It is now possible through My shed blood to come boldly to My throne of grace and find help in your times of need.  I always welcome your prayers, Come to Me daily with all of your concerns.

1 PETER 3:12; HEBREWS 4:16

SIGHT

Two people were on the road to Emmaus where they lived. They were discussing the things that they had heard about My crucifixion and My resurrection.

Their eyes were closed to these truths and they felt they were just idle tales.  Suddenly, I joined them and walked with them.

When we were close to their home, they invited Me to have dinner with them. As I broke the bread, suddenly their eyes were opened and they saw Me.  Pray for many to have their eyes opened to know Me.

STRANGERS

I made it possible for you to be a part of My family.  My servant Paul wrote this about Me. "For by Him we have access by one Spirit to the Father.

Now therefore we are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints and of the household of God: (Ephesians 2:18-19)"

When you were born again, you were born into My family and you became a citizen in My eternal household.  Rejoice today because you will never be alone or a stranger.

EPHESIANS 2:18-19

SAFETY

My beloved psalmist David had great confidence in My ability to keep him safe.  He wrote:  "I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep for You LORD, only are able to make me dwell in safety.

There are so many who are fearful in these dark times during these end days. Radical Muslims are killing anyone who does not believe as they do.

Pray for My firewall of angels to surround those who have been threatened by radical Muslims and terrorists.  Pray that they will know ahead of time before they are attacked. Pray for peace.

PSALM 4:8

CONFIDENT

I  desire that you put all of your confidence in Me.  When you do this you can be confident that when you die, you will be in My presence for all eternity.

You can also be confident that when you pray anything according to My will that I will hear you and that I will also grant your requests.

When you put your confidence in Me, you can be confident of this one thing, that when I begin a good work in you, I will perform it until I return.

2 CORINTHIANS; 1 JOHN 5:14-15; PHILIPPIANS 1:6

COURSE

Life is a journey. When you choose the right course for your life's journey, you will safely arrive at your destination. I desire for you to choose the course that will lead you to spend eternity with Me.

John the Baptist chose the right course.  His course was fulfilled when he prepared the way for My coming. Many who heard him chose the right course and repented from their evil ways. 

When you share the gospel of My kingdom with others,  you are fulfilling the same course John the Baptist had.  You are preparing people to repent from their sins and receive My life within them.

ACTS 13:24-25

TRY

The day will come when every man's work will be manifest because I will reveal it by fire. The fire will try every man's work to discover what sort of work it is.

If any man's work survives the fire, he will receive a reward.  If any man's work is burned, he shall be saved, but he will lose his reward.

Pray every morning that you will accomplish all the works I have written in your book of life for that day.  Then ask Me to give you the will and the way to accomplish those works by the power of My Holy Spirit.

1 CORINTHIANS 3:14-15

TRIUMPHING

My servant Paul wrote these words to the Colossian church: "And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a show of them openly, triumphing over them in it.'

You are in My army on earth, and I have given you all power and authority over Satan. You can now bind those principalities and powers and send them to My footstool where I will deal with them.

I am your mighty Captain who has gone before you to defeat Satan and his demons when I shed My blood on the cross. Use your authority daily to come against Satan and his demons.

COLOSSIANS 2:15

FINISH

I said that there would be wars and rumors of wars.  I know so many are praying for the war in Israel to be finished and also the war in Ukraine to be over.

More than a thousand years ago Isaiah was asking the same question.  He heard that I would finish the work concerning Israel, and cut it short in righteousness, because a short work will I make upon the earth.

As you pray for these wars to end, remember that My timing is not your timing.  Rest assured, however, that I always finish the works on earth. I am also the author and finisher of your faith.  Keep praying.

ROMANS 9:28

SIMPLE

My servant Paul wrote that there are things that we are to have wisdom about and things that we are to be simple about.  

He wrote: "For your obedience is come abroad to all men.  I am glad therefore on your behalf: but yet, I would have you wise to that which is good and simple concerning evil (Romans 16:18)."

I encourage you to focus on the good things.  Godly things are always good things. Do not put your focus on evil things because those things are worldly and will pull you down.

ROMANS 16:18

AFFORD

 As you pray prayers for this and the next generation and generations to come if I tarry,  your prayers will afford much.  David prayed and sang the following in Psalm 144:11-15:

"Rid me, and deliver me from the hand of strange children, whose mouth speaks vanity, and their right hand is a right hand of falsehood: That our sons may be as plants grown up in their youth; that our

daughters may be as corner stones, polished after the likeness of a palace, that our garners may be full, affording all manner of store...."  I want you to pray this prayer for your children and for Israel.

Psalm 144:11-13

CONFIDENCE

I want you to always put your confidence in Me.  When you put your confidence in your own flesh, you will never enter the rest, quietness, and strength that I want to give you.

My joy is your strength, and you will enter the joy that is promised in My kingdom on earth when you release every burden to Me and trust Me to carry those burdens.

Take time to be quiet and still tomorrow when you meet with Me in the morning, and then cast all of Your cares upon Me because you are confident that I will take your cares and then you will find rest for your soul.

ISAIAH 30:15; ROMANS 14:17

TASTE

 My psalmist David wrote the longest psalm in the Bible.  He shared how much My Word meant to him.  He loved My statutes, commandments, precepts, and promises.

David expressed his love for My Word in this Psalm.  He wrote: "How sweet are Your words to my taste! Yes, sweeter than honey to my mouth!'

David loved to read all that was written in My Word.  He only had the Torah (the first five books of the Bible) to read, but he loved to digest My Word daily.  I desire for you to digest My Word daily also.

PSALM 119:103

SHOWERS

The day will come when all the kings of the earth will fall down before Me. I came first as the suffering servant to bear the sins of the world when I died on the cross. I will return as conquering king.

I will come in the clouds. "I will come down like rain upon the mown grass: as showers that water the earth."

I will come to judge all nations, but I will also redeem the earth and the souls of many will come to Me.  Look forward to that day.

PSALM 72 

DILIGENT

My friend Peter exhorted those who believe in Me to make their calling and election sure.  He shared those things that we should be diligent to do.

Peter exhorted believers to add to our faith virtue, knowledge, temperance, patience, godliness, brotherly kindness, and love or charity.

Ask My Holy Spirit daily to help you to be diligent in your faith walk with Me.  As you abide in Me, My Word, and My love daily, you will add these character qualities listed to your faith.

2 PETER 1:5-10

HANDS

There are works that I have designed for you to do even before you were born.  Moses wrote only one psalm. He concluded the psalm he wrote with a prayer that I desire for you to pray daily.

He prayed: "And let the beauty of the LORD our God be upon us: and establish the work of our hands upon us, yes, the work of our hands establish it (Psalm 90:17)."

Daily commit your works to Me and I will establish your thoughts. Listen carefully to My Spirit within you as I lead you to do the next thing. I will strengthen you to complete every assignment I give you.

PSALM 90:17

FLOODS

Isaiah prophesied a prophecy for Jacob who became Israel. This promise was for Israel and it is still being fulfilled. Every believer in Me are sons and daughters of Abraham.

Isaiah 44:3: " For I will poor water upon him who is thirsty, and floods upon the dry ground. I will pour my spirit upon your seed, and my blessing upon your offspring.

Speak this promise over Israel, your children, and your grandchildren and generations to come if I tarry. Pray for Israel and this generation to become thirsty for My Word. I will fill the thirsty.

ISAIAH 44:3

PLEASANT

David wrote: "The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places, yes, I have a goodly heritage." David did have a good heritage.  He came from the tribe of Judah, and he knew that he had a good heritage.

David's heritage was good because he had a spiritual heritage. David knew Me and called Me his LORD.  David wrote: "The LORD said to My Lord, Sit at My right hand, until I make Your enemies Your footstool (Psalm 110:1)."

David knew Me by My Holy Spirit Who anointed him so that he could call Me his Lord even before I was born on earth.  Your heritage is also pleasant.  Since you were born again, you are a joint heir with Me.

PSALM 16:6; 110:1

LEAST

I shared that when I return to the earth in all My glory, I will gather the nations before Me. I will divide the sheep from the goats. I will put the sheep on My right hand and the goats on My left.

I will bless the sheep nations on My right because they fed Me, gave me drink, took Me in and clothed Me. The goat nations on My left will ask when did they see Me in such a condition.

I will tell them that inasmuch as you have done this unto one of the least of My brethren, you have done this unto Me. My brethren are the Jews.  Nations will be judged by their treatment to the Jews.

MATTHEW 25:31-40

DECLARE

No man has not seen My Father.  I came to declare Him.  I came to reveal to the world the character of My Father. 

Moses asked My Father to show him His glory.  Moses stood on a rock and My Father passed by him. Moses could only see the back of My Father, but My Father gave a character sketch of Himself.

My Father declared that He was forgiving, merciful, longsuffering, kind,  good, true and just.  All of My actions on earth declared the wonderful character of My Father. Daily seek to know Me better.

EXODUS 34:6

SUBSTANCE

The writer of Hebrews wrote: "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." Your prayers travel a highway of faith that is paved with the substance called hope.

You cannot see faith, but you can receive the substance of things hoped for when you read and hear My Word. I want you always to read My Word out loud because when you do, your faith will grow.

Faith comes by hearing and hearing by My Word. When you read My Word out loud, both your physical ears and spiritual ears will receive the seed of My Word in your heart (your inner man).

HEBREWS 11:1; ROMANS 10:17

LITTLE

Both the Old Covenant and the New Covenant speak about how a little leaven leavens the  whole lump. Sin is often referred to as leaven.

The sins of the whole world were laid upon Me when I died on the tree to forgive the sins of the world. Sin is sin.  There is no such thing as big or little sins.  One sin can destroy a life.

I experienced on the cross the destruction that comes from sin.  My body of flesh was torn and My blood was shed to redeem the world from sin. Thank Me daily for My delivering you from sin.

GALATIANS 5:9

REDEEMED

I want you to celebrate today and remember every day My Father's redemptive plan that was even before the earth was formed. He knows the future and as God in the flesh, so do I.

My Father knew that mankind would sin, and this is why I was the lamb slain from the foundation of the earth to provide the perfect sacrifice that would reconcile sinful man to My Father.

This is a mystery that many do not understand, but it was only My perfect blood that I shed on the cross that could provide the way of faith for mankind to receive My sacrifice to atone for their sins.

1 PETER 1:18-23

SORROWS

The disciples asked Me what would be the sign of My coming.  I said, "And you shall hear of wars and rumors of wars: see that you be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet."

I added that nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earth quakes in divers places.  All of these are the beginning of sorrows.

I said that there would be persecution.  You are seeing this now in the world.  The end, however, will not come until the gospel of the kingdom is preached to every nation.  Pray for laborers for this last harvest.

MATTHEW 24:6-8

UNTIL

There are many prophecies in the Old Covenant that speak of My coming and even of My resurrection. The psalmist David wrote one of these prophecies and it is repeated in the Book of Acts.

David wrote: "The LORD said to My LORD, Sit at My right hand, until I make Your enemies Your footstool." Luke repeated this verse when he wrote: 

"For David is not ascended into the heavens: but he said himself, 'The LORD said to my LORD, Sit on my right hand until I make Your  foes Your footstool." Share Psalm 110:1 with your Jewish friends.

PSALM 110:1; ACTS 2:34-35

AGREEMENT

I have promised that where two or three are gathered in My name, I will be in the midst of them. 

I have also promised that if two agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of My Father Who is in heaven.

It is the agreement in prayer that is so important.  Always first ask that your prayers be in agreement with what I am praying about your request and then agree with others about that request.

MATTHEW 18:19-20

SHARP

Solomon warned his sons to be careful about the words that they spoke.  He compared the tongue to a sharp arrow or sword.

Solomon wrote: "A man who bears false witness against his neighbor is a maul, and a sword, and a sharp arrow." David also warned his son Solomon about the power that words have.

David wrote about evil men: "They have sharpened their tongues like a serpent, adders poison is under their lips." Pray that the words of your mouth, and the meditation of your heart are acceptable to Me.

PROVERBS 25:18; PSALM 140:3, 19:14

BORROW

When I gave My sermon on the mountain, I exhorted people to give to others.  Many of those present did not know that I was the only begotten son of God who came to give My life to save them.

The sacrificial system that was created by My Father required the shedding of blood for the remission of sins.  Many today do not know that I shed My blood to redeem them from Satan's grip of sin.

My Father is not a taker and I am not either.  I am a giver, and I taught the people to give to those who asked them, and to not turn away those who want to borrow from them.

MATTHEW 5:42

SHELTER

Many all over the world are seeking shelter not just from the storms that are numerous during this season, but also from the storms of the wars  that are occurring world wide. 

Pray for those who are seeking to shelter their families from the persecution of believers all over the world. Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and for the persecuted church world wide.

My servant David wrote, "For You have been a shelter for me, and a strong tower from the enemy." Make this declaration over all those who are fleeing persecution today.

PSALM 61:3 

OBSERVE

I created mankind with the ability to observe all that I have created.  It seems that the age that you now live in is filled with so many distractions, that few people take time to observe the beauty of nature.

I desire for you to take time every day to just sit still and observe My handy work. The beauty even of a sunset is a reminder of My desire to let you observe beauty at the end of the day.

Tomorrow I challenge you to also observe the variety of treasures I have created. People are My treasures, and I want you not to be partial in your judgments of them. They are all precious in My sight.

1 TIMOTHY 5:21

PROTECTION

It seems that the stark difference between good and evil is being revealed throughout the world as there are so many wars and rumors of wars.

I shared that the time that you are experiencing in the world today is called the beginning of sorrows. You can make a difference when you pray for the innocent to be protected from the evil of this age.

Pray the prayer I prayed so many years ago for those who believe in Me. I prayed: "I pray not that  You should take them out of the world, but that you should keep them from the evil."

MARK 13:8; JOHN 17:15

CERTAINTY

You live in an age where there is great uncertainty because there is great deception and delusion that has invaded the minds of many in every country. This is the work of My enemy, Satan.

There are so many lies and false news that many are asking, "How will I know for certain what is true and what is not true?"

There is only one way to know with certainty what is true.  My Holy Spirit is the Spirit of truth and My Word is true.  I am the way, the TRUTH, and the life.  Seek Me and My Word and you will know the truth.

LUKE 1:4

ABLE

I am able to meet all of your needs according to My riches in glory.  I am also able to do exceedingly, abundantly above all that you ask or think, according to the power that works within you.

You have not because you ask not.  I want you to daily ask, seek, and knock because I promise to open doors for you.

As you seek Me with all of your heart and ask Me for your daily needs, the door will be open for you to receive what I know you need. Ask for a daily anointing of the power of My Spirit.

EPHESIANS 3:20 

WARM

One of your ministries as My beloved is to help people stay warm and filled.  I do not mean just physically warmed and filled.

I have called you to minister the warmth of My love to others.  I want you to reach out to those who feel empty spiritually because they have not received the food I provide through My Word.

Many people throughout the world have no physical food and no warm clothes.  Pray for their physical needs. Also pray for them to be warmed by My love and filled with My Spirit.

JAMES 2:16

DELIGHT

You live in a culture where there is so much to think about.  I know when you were a child, there was not a lot to think about. You did not have all the technology and inventions that may need repair.

I want you to focus on Me in the morning.  Be faithful to do this because if you do not, your thoughts will cloud your mind and Satan also will have a chance to give you his thoughts.

David wrote: "In the multitude of my thoughts within me Your comforts delight my soul." I want to comfort and delight your soul every day.  I will see  you in the morning.

PSALM 94:19 

I will miss two weeks doing my blog because I will not have a computer.  Don't give up.  I'll be back.

WORTHY

My psalmist David said, "I will call upon the LORD, Who is worthy to be praised so shall I be saved from mine enemies.

You are in the world, but you are not of world.  Because you are in the world, you will experience many trials and hard times. Israel is surrounded by many enemies right now.  

Pray that many in My land will cry out to Me and recognize that I am worthy to be praised and that I can save them from all of their enemies. I can also save you from all your enemies. Pray for the peace of Jerusalem.

PSALM 18:3

MIDST

Keep praying for the peace of Jerusalem.  When you pray for the peace of Jerusalem, you are praying for My return.

There will be no lasting peace in Jerusalem until My return.  However, I have done battle and My angel Michael who is My angel over Israel have won a great battle to bring a season of peace in Israel.

I have sent the rod of My strength out of Zion: to rule in the midst of Israel's enemies.  Praise Me for this time of peace and take every opportunity to share the gospel of My kingdom with others.

PSALM 110:2

EVIDENCE

You face trials every day.  Many trials are allowed by Me to test your faith.  In worldly trials, evidence is presented. However, no evidence is presented in the tests of faith I give you in a trial.

You will go through every trial victoriously if you persistently pray with thanksgiving and belief that I hear your prayers. Shut your eyes to the evidence you see in the circumstances around you.

Open your eyes to My Word and hear My Word. Faith comes by hearing and hearing by My Word.

Faith is not built by having many trials.  Faith is built through hearing and obeying My Word.

HEBREWS 11:1

DELIVERED

All things are delivered to Me of My Father, and no man knows Me, but the Father; neither  does any man know the Father, save Me, and to whoever I will reveal Him.

I cam to earth to show mankind who My Father is.  As you read My Word, pray for continual revelation knowledge so that you will grow closer and closer to My Father as I reveal Him to you.

Give thanks to Me daily for My Spirit Who was given to you to guide you into all truth.  As you listen to His guidance and instructions daily, you will draw closer and closer to both Me and My Father.

MATTHEW 11:27.

CORRECTION

Few people like to be corrected.  However, My Father desires to correct His children before they get into trouble. He has chosen two ways that He can correct those who believe in Him.

My Father wants to first correct us through His Word.  Paul wrote, "All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:"

If we do not obey God's Word, then God will allow circumstances to come that will cause us to obey His Word. My Word is given as a rod of correction.  Choose to receive that rod, so you will stay out of trouble.

2 TIMOTHY 3:16

APPEAR

The day will come when every believer will appear before My judgment seat.  You will be judged there for the things done in your body, whether good or bad.

That judgment will be for reward.  I desire for you to accomplish every work that I have prepared for you from the foundation of the earth.

Every day ask My Holy Spirit to help you not to miss any work I prepared for you that day.  Listen carefully for the Comforter to guide and help you accomplish the works for that day.

2 CORINTHIANS 5:10

FRIENDS

Solomon wrote "A man who has friends must show himself friendly: and there is a friend that sticks closer than a brother." I am that friend because a brother protects, loves, and provides

Many elder brothers inherit their father's business and also are executor's of their father's will.  Solomon wrote these words centuries before I was born. I am your elder brother who never leaves or forsakes you.

I have been given a great inheritance and you are a joint heir with Me. My Father's business is to save mankind from sin.  Be about your Father's business today and every day and enjoy being in My family.

PROVERBS 18:24

FIGHT

Many in the age you are living are fighting for survival.  I prophesied that there would be wars and rumors of wars in the last days.

I also said, "I must work the works of Him who sent me while it is day: the night comes, when no man can work."

Listen to the exhortation Paul gave to Timothy. "Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal live, where you are called...." It is your prayer of faith that can bring peace in the middle of war.

MATTHEW 14:6; JOHN 9:4;1 TIMOTHY 6:12; 

ASIDE

Peter wrote that there were certain things that we should lay aside. We should lay aside all malice, and all guile, and hypocrisies, and envies, and all evil speaking.

He exhorted the new believers to desire the sincere milk of God's Word because it is only the Word of God that will help believers grow.

Many are being born again in this last great harvest.  Pray that these new born babes will find places where they and be discipled so that they can grow in My Word and share My Word with others.

1 PETER 2:1-2

EXTEND

The prophet Isaiah centuries ago shared what I will extend to both Jews and Gentiles. Memorize this scripture and you will receive both hope and faith every time you speak it out loud.

Isaiah 66:12: "For thus says the LORD, Behold, I will extend peace to her (Jerusalem) like a river, and the glory of the Gentiles like a flowing stream: then shall you suck, you shall be born upon her sides, and be dandled upon her knees."

The question I asked before I spoke these prophetic words through Isaiah was, "Can a nation be born in a day?" I was referencing the birth of Israel when My chosen at last received their promised land forever.

ISAIAH 66:8, 12

UNDERSTANDING

My Holy Spirit has the power to give My beloved understanding of My Word and to give unbelievers understanding in their hearts.

Many of those who do not yet understand why I came or who I really am have had their hearts blinded. Pray for the hearts of the unsaved.  

Bind the spirits of darkness and blindness and loose the power of My Spirit Who can open the eyes of their understanding.

EPHESIANS 4:18

EXALT

I am exalted above the heavens.  This means that I am above all things that I have created.  I created you and I am above you.  However, I have seated you next to Me in the heavens.

Just as I am with you, you are with Me in the Spirit. It thrills Me when you lift up your voice to Me to exalt Me through your praise and worship.

I look forward to this every morning. 

PSALM 97:9

RECOMPENSE

I am a God of recompense.  I  am a righteous God Who always recompenses tribulation on all those who trouble the righteous.

As you see the wars that are caused by evil people, understand that their evil will be delivered back to them.  Those unrighteous, haughty makers of war will be destroyed at the end day.

You can have hope now that I defend the righteous and I avenge any evil that has been done to them. Have no fear, I see all and I know all.  I have hosts of angels that are ready to defend the righteous.

2 THESSALONIANS 1:6

ADMIRED

My servant Paul talked about the day when I will return and how all My saints will admire Me. I know that you and all of My beloved are looking forward to that day when they will see Me face to face.

Paul continued to talk about that day and then he prayed that on that day, God would count the saints worthy of their calling.

He continued and prayed that they would fulfill all the good pleasure of My goodness, and finish the work of faith with power so that My name would be glorified in them all. I am praying this for you also.

2 THESSALONIANS 1:10-12

BETWEEN

My servant Paul wrote to Timothy these words: "For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus(1 Timothy 2;5)."

I had to become a man.  I am both God and man.  I am both divine and human.  I had to come to earth and live and die as a human.  In order to be the perfect sacrifice I had to have a body.

Because of My sacrifice, I can now reconcile people to My Father. I died for the remission of their sins. All who believe in Me can receive My gift of salvation.  You can now call My Father "your Father."  

1 TIMOTHY 2:5

EXPECTATION

My servant Paul's earnest expectation was that when he saw Me face to fact that he would not be ashamed about anything. His hope was that I would be magnified in his body as long as he lived on earth.

Paul exhorted every believer to offer their bodies daily as living sacrifices.  When My beloved do this every morning, I rejoice.

Paul fulfilled his mission on earth, and I was magnified in his life on earth.  I know your prayer also and the prayer of many of My beloved is that they also will magnify Me daily until I call them home.

PHILIPPIANS 1:20

REFINE

When I return, I will be a refiner's fire to purify and to cleanse.  Every man will have to give an account for the things they did in their bodies.

I want all My beloved to daily allow Me by the power of My Holy Spirit to refine their souls.  Those who believe in Me and My atonement are already refined in their spirit because they have My Spirit within.

The soul is what needs refining.  Every day I want you to surrender your mind, will, and emotions to Me and ask My Holy Spirit to refine those areas that need to be refined.  I am conforming you to My image.

MALACHI 3:2

RENEW

Only My Word has the power to renew your mind and change your heart.  Paul wrote: "Be not conformed to this world: but be you transformed by the renewing of your mind...."

My Word is living and has the "power to divide your soul and spirit...." It is your soul (mind, will, and emotions) that desires worldliness rather than godliness.

My Word can give you godly thoughts instead of worldly thoughts.  My Word can give you godly desires rather than willful desires, and My Word can anchor your emotions with My hope.

ROMANS 12:1-2; HEBREWS 4:12 

ACCEPTED

 It is such a blessing to be accepted by others.  Most everyone want to be accepted.  Those who have experienced much rejection long for acceptance.

The good news is that you are accepted by Me. According to My will, you were predestined to be adopted as My Father's child by Me.  Sadly many do not know this good news.

I want you to share My gospel with those who have never received My gift of salvation.  Once they believe in Me and receive Me as their Savior, they are immediately accepted in My beloved family.

EPHESIANS 1:5-6

KEEP

My servant David made a promise to Me that I desire for you and all My beloved to promise.  He said, "I will take heed to my ways, that I sin not with my tongue: I will keep my mouth with a bridle, while the wicked is before me."

Death and life are in the power of the tongue.  What you speak daily can edify others or harm them. There is no way that you can train your tongue to say the words that are acceptable to Me.

The words you speak come from your heart. I want you to daily pray this prayer:  "Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in Your sight." I will then be able to keep your mouth.

PSALM 139:1, 19:14

REMISSION

At My last Passover with My disciples after dinner, I lifted the cup of wine and said, "This is the blood of the new covenant shed for many for the remission of their sins."

The word, "remission," in English means forgiveness, a pardon of sins and crimes, and a a release from debt. When I shed My blood and forgave your sins at My crucifixion, I paid the debt that you owed.

At last, you could choose to walk out of the prison of unforgiveness by receiving My gift of salvation offered to you because of the remission of your sins. 

MATTHEW 26:28 

OFTEN

I want you to take communion often.  Many churches only do this once every three months.  However, it delights Me when people daily have their own private communion with Me.

I told My disciples at my last Passover with them that as often as they eat the bread and drink the cup, they remember My death until I come.

When I shed My blood, I atoned for the sins of the world.  That atonement was also for healing. When I died, I took your infirmities and bore your sicknesses.  Honor Me by remembering My sacrifice often.

1 CORINTHIANS 11:26; MATTHEW 8:17

VALUE

You are worth to Me more than many sparrows, and I place a high value on sparrows.  In fact, I see when a sparrow falls. I attend the funeral of every sparrow, and I even number the hairs on your head.

I am the One Who created you, and I was present at your conception.  It was at your conception that My light shined upon you.  I am the One Who lights every man who comes into the world.

Pray for those who do not yet know Me. I know each one of them, and I desire to fellowship with them. See every person as I see them. I see every person as My valuable treasures.

LUKE 12:7; JOHN 1:9

PASSED

You are a new creature in Me.  The old things are passed away and all things are new. I was the perfect sacrifice that made it possible for you to be reconciled to My Father.

You are now an ambassador for Me, and I have also given you the ministry of reconciliation.  The people who believe that I died, was buried, and was raised from the dead can have their sins forgiven.

This is the good news that I want you to share. Those who receive Me as their Savior and LORD can also become new creatures in Me. Look for opportunities to share this ministry of reconciliation with others.

2 CORINTHIANS 5:17

HIGH

My servant Paul warned believers to not mind high things.  He encourage them to be  of one mind toward each other.

We are not to be wise in our own conceits. This is pride.  I invited all who believe in Me to come to Me and learn meekness and lowliness of  heart.  Meekness is strength under control.

Pray for those believers you know to have godly wisdom, and to not set their affections on high earthly things, but the high things that are eternal. Paul exhorted believers to set their affections on things above.

ROMANS 12:16

PRIZE

You are My prized possession.  I paid to possess you with My own shed blood when I became the perfect sacrifice that My Father accepted.  You are now reconciled to My Father by the blood I shed on the tree.

I knew you before you were born.  You are mine and I am yours.  I dwell within you by My Spirit and with My strength I know you are going to run the race of life well.

Paul wrote that he pressed toward the mark for the prize of the high calling that I gave him. As you trust in Me, you will fulfill the high calling I have given you and you will receive your prize.

PHILIPPIANS 3:14

HEIRS

I want you to think about the inheritance that you have in Me. I own the cattle on 1,000 hills, and I am able to meet all your needs according to My riches.

You are My child, and this makes you an heir of God and a joint-heir with Me. I have justified you by My grace. You received My inheritance when you were born again and this inheritance is eternal.

You are surrounded by a whole host of angels who have been sent to minister to all the heirs of salvation.  All I have is yours. Enjoy your inheritance daily right now and for all eternity.

ROMANS 8:17; HEBREWS 1:14

EXCEEDING

My servant Paul experienced the exceeding abundance of My power that worked through him after His Damascus Road experience.

He was able to do exceedingly great things because he yielded to My Holy Spirit within him.  He knew that he was not the one who was able to do great things.  It was My Spirit working in him.

Paul daily yielded his body to Me as a living sacrifice and then he listened carefully to the voice of My Spirit Who taught him and guided him. I want you to follow his example, and do it daily.

EPHESIANS 3:20. 

TRIED

Every time you are tempted, you are on trial.  I ever live to make intercession for you, and My prayer for you when you are tempted is that you will say no to that temptation.

You can always win over temptation when you take those tempting thoughts captive and then send them to Me.  Ask Me then to send you a righteous thought.

It is no sin to have a tempting thought.  Satan is sending those thoughts to you daily.  Know that I am praying for you, and I have made it possible for you to win. You are more than a conqueror through Me.

JAMES 1:12; 2 CORINTHIANS 10:3-6; ROMANS 8:37

WEARY

My servant Paul wrote many letters to the various churches he planted. He exhorted most of those churches to not grow weary in well doing.

He added that if they did not faint and grow weary, they would in due season reap what they had sown. Remember that My Father is in charge of the seasons of planting and sowing.

One of the main tactics of My enemy in these last days is to cause the saints to give up.  He tries to block the fruits of the labor of the saints, but if every laborer is faithful to keep sowing, they will see the fruit.

GALATIANS 6:9; 2 THESSALONIANS 3:13

MERRY

The benefits of a merry heart are great.  Those who look to Me to give them joy will have merry hearts.  At My last Passover meal with My disciples I told them how they could receive My joy.

I told them three  things that they could do in order to receive My joy and have My joy remain in them. Those three things were ABIDE IN ME, MY WORD, AND MY LOVE.

When you daily receive My joy, you will have strength and a continual merry heart.  You will have health because a merry heart is good medicine and you will have a continual feast and a cheerful countenance.

JOHN 15; PROVERBS 13, 15, 17

INSTANT

I desire for you to be instant in doing two things daily.  This means that you are to prepare yourself to instantly obey My Holy Spirit when He guides you to share the gospel and pray with others 

Be ready to stop everything you are doing when you are led by My Spirit to pray. Your quick response to My call for you to pray could even save a life that is in danger.

Paul exhorted Timothy to always be prepared to share My gospel of the kingdom both in season and out of season.  Daily watch for opportunities to share My good news with others.

ROMANS 12:12; 2 TIMOTHY 4:2

PATH

My cousin John came preaching the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins.  He was preparing the way for My coming.

John was that voice in the wilderness crying, "Prepare you the way of the LORD, make His paths straight."  Isaiah prophesied that all flesh would see the salvation of God.

When I came and gave Myself as the perfect sacrifice, I made it possible for you to be put on the straight path of My righteousness. I am also your Good Shepherd Who will keep you on that path.

LUKE 3:4-6; PSALM 23

LIGHT

I gave this invitation to all who believe in Me.  I invite you and every believer to come to Me and take My yoke upon them and learn of Me meekness and lowliness of heart.

Then I said that My yoke is easy and My burden is light. My yoke is the Holy Spirit, and I want you daily to be yoked with My Holy Spirit because He can give you the strength and guidance you need daily.

My burden is light in weight because when you give Me your cares and burdens, I share that burden with My Father. Then We pray for you.  I am Your care taker and giver. I give your cares to My Father.

MATTHEW 11:28-30

JOIN

My servant Paul exhorted the churches he wrote to be of one mind and one Spirit.  In order to be of one Spirit, you must be joined to Me in truth and love.

My adversary always tries to divide.  He hates unity because he knows that a house divided against itself cannot stand.  This is why he causes division in families, countries, and even My body on earth.

Be alert to Satan's strategy to divide.  He uses the very mouths of people to speak his language of accusatory, critical, judgmental words.  Watch  and pray so that he will never use you to speak his words.

1 CORINTHIANS 1:10

SINCERE

My servant Paul prayed a beautiful prayer for the church in Philippi.  He prayed that they might approve those things that were excellent and that they might be sincere and without offence until the day of Christ.

This is a great prayer for you to pray for all those you love.  He also prayed for the believers to be filled with the fruits of righteousness that are from Me.

Every morning ask Me to fill you with a fresh anointing so that you will be able to express the fruits of My Spirit to all those you talk to each day.

PHILIPPIANS 1:10-11

SUBMIT

The word "submit" means in English "to present or to refer to others for consideration or decision." This means that a person who submits usually wants another person to help them make a decision.

The Greek word, "submit: means "to be under obedience." You are to obey My commandment to love others as I have loved you. I want you to first submit yourself to Me.

Paul encouraged believers to submit themselves one to one another in the fear of God. This means that you are to submit to others with love in your heart for others because you are to love others as I love them.

EPHESIANS 5:21  

CONTENTION

There were contentions often between My disciples.  Later after Paul was converted, the contentions between him and Barnabas was so sharp that they had to separate.

Barnabas wanted to take Mark with them on their travels to minister, but Paul did not want to take Mark since Mark had left the work of the ministry for a season.

Contention happens when two people are not content with their circumstances.  Paul said that godliness with contentment is great gain.  Pray that you will be content no matter what your circumstances are.

ACTS 15:35-39; 1 TIMOTHY 6:6

PRESERVE

There are two things that will preserve you throughout your life.  David listed these two things in a Psalm he wrote.

A verse in this Psalm was a prayer that David often prayed.  He prayed: "Withhold not Your tender mercies from me, O LORD: let Your lovingkindness and Your truth continually preserve me."

David's life was one of fight and flight.  This was a prayer that he often prayed to Me.  He knew that I was merciful, and he counted on my kindness and truth to continually preserve him.

PSALM 40:11

TOGETHER

You are a co-laborer with Me.  I am always with you, and I desire for you to pray together with the body of Christ.

There is such power in agreement, and most of all I want you to be in agreement as I intercede for your family, friends, and even nations.

I ever live to make intercession for you and all those who believe in Me.  When you do not know what to pray, ask Me to reveal what I am praying concerning people and circumstances. I will help you pray.

HEBREWS 7:25

SHINE

As you abide in Me, My Word, and My love, your path will grow brighter and brighter.  I am the light of the world, and when you were born again, I lit your spirit with My light.

The world seems to be getting darker and darker, but My beloved will shine brighter in this darkness. Day by day, ask for a fresh anointing so that My Spirit within you will shine outward to those you meet.

Solomon wrote this: "But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shines more and more unto the perfect day." As you spend more time with Me, your countenance will shine brighter and brighter.

PROVERBS 4:18

CANDLE

The spirit of man is My candle that searches the inner parts of a human being.  You are a spirit being.  You have a soul and you live in a body. This is how I created you.

Only when I light the candle of the spirit of man are they born again of My Spirit.  My psalmist David wrote: For thou will light my candle: the LORD my God will enlighten my darkness.

During this last great harvest, I am lighting the candle of many of the prodigals who have rebelled against Me and who have been walking in darkness.  Pray that My light will pierce those dark hearts.

PROVERBS 20:27: PSALM 18:28

STILL

You are the planting of the LORD.  You are a tree of righteousness.  Every believer in Me can rejoice in these truths.

My servant David wrote a psalm about how these plantings grow and mature. He wrote: "The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree, he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon."

They shall still bring forth fruit in old age; they shall be fat a flourishing. This is a promise that every believer who is aging can claim.  Rejoice that even in your last years on earth, you will be fruitful.

PSALM 92:12, 14

FALLING

You daily pray for those who have problems walking.  You pray that I will set My angels around them to keep them from falling.

I am able to keep you from falling not only physically, but also spiritually.  I am able to keep you from falling and to present you faultless before presence of My Father.

You have always received this promise with thanksgiving: "Now unto Him Who is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy (Jude 1:24)"

JUDE 1:24

LOVELY

You are living in the last days when I prophesied that there would be wars and rumors of wars.  The earth seems to be filled with darkness.

Fill your mind with thoughts that are lovely, honest, true, pure, just, and of good report. These are the things that My servant Paul wrote that you should think about.

What thoughts you embrace in your mind will either cause you to be embraced with My peace or embraced with anxiety and fear. 

PHILIPPIANS 4:8

FRIENDS

Friendships are based on trust.  A true friend is one with whom you can share your most intimate thoughts. After I got to know the disciples I had chosen, I told them that they were My friends.

I said, "Henceforth I call you not servants, for the servant knows not what his lord does, but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of My Father I have made known to you."

Every morning when you wake up, I want to have a friend to friend conversation with you. Ask Me questions and then wait for Me to answer you with a heart to heart talk.

JOHN 15:15

ABOVE

I want you to seek and set your affection on things that are above, not things on this earth.  There are so many distractions on earth that draw you away from thinking of Me.

As soon as you arise from sleep, read one of the Psalms.  Then write some things down that you want to thank Me for that happened yesterday. This will draw your attention to Me. 

When you enter My courts with thanksgiving, you will be led into praise, and finally worship. Now you are in the Holy of Holies where I will meet you there. My glory light will make things on earth grow dim.

COLOSSIANS 3:2

TENDER

My mercy endures forever and I am a God of tender mercies.  I watch over you with tender mercy because I know you are flesh and that you may give in to the temptations My adversary sends you.

When you are tempted, remember that I am watching and I want to tenderly rescue from Satan's grip.  This is why I came.  I came to liberate you from Satan by forgiving you and redeeming you.

Yes, whenever you are tempted, take your thoughts captive and give them to Me immediately.  Then I will give you a righteous thought that will counter those attacks from Satan.  

LUKE 1:71-80

CARE

There has always been a measure of division in My body on earth.  However, these divisions are caused by those members of the body who are not abiding in my love or by Satan who seeks to divide. 

I desire that there should be no schism in the body; but that the members should have the same care one for another. 

Division occurs in My body on earth simply because someone or many are abiding in their flesh instead of abiding in My love and My Word. Pray for My body on earth to be one even as My Father and I are one.

1 CORINTHIANS 12:25

THIRST

When I met the woman at the well, I told her that I had water to give her that would satisfy her thirst and that the water I have to give will become a well of water that will spring up into everlasting life.

On the last day of the Feast of Tabernacles just after the priests had finished their water ceremony, I said these words, "If any man thirst, let him come to Me, and drink. 

He who believes on Me, as the scripture has said out of His belly shall flow rivers of living water." The living water is My Holy Spirit.  Pray for the living water to fill you each day and you will be satisfied.

JOJN 4:14; JOHN 7:37-38

AGAINST

My servant Paul had many enemies against him.  However, he was very secure in My love for and acceptance of him.

He wrote: "What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?  Paul wrote this just after he confessed that the main enemy the had was his own flesh with its lusts.

You and all My beloved will always have a battle to overcome their fleshly lusts.  However, you can rest assured that I am for you. I have overcome the world and I can help you win over your flesh.

ROMANS 8:31

KNOW

There are many in the world who do not know God.  This is why it is so important to pray for more laborers to share My gospel of the kingdom throughout the world.

My beloved John shared how you will know whether or not a person knows Me or does not know Me.  He said, "He who loves not knows not God; for God is love (1 John 1:8)."

I exhort you to have keen discernment to know whether or not a person is born again. The person who is born of God loves not only My Father, but also loves Me, and loves others.

1 JOHN 1:6-8

 

CHASTENING

There is much in My word about chastening.  Good parents will chasten their children.  You chasten others when you correct them or rebuke them. You chasten your children when they misbehave.

You are one of My children, and there will be times when I chasten you.  I will correct you or My Holy Spirit will convict you whenever you are not obeying My Word.

My word was given to you for instruction, reproof and correction.  This is why it is necessary for you abide in My Word so that you will not ever veer off the path of righteousness that I have prepared for you.

2 TIMOTHY 3:16

PLANT

It is harvest time.  Pray for laborers for the harvest. Some laborers will plant and others will water, but I am the LORD of the harvest, and I am the one who gives the increase.

Pray for the soil of the hearts of people to be fertile and ready to receive.  The kingdom of God is what I preached when I was on earth, and it is what everyone is looking for now. 

The kingdom of God is righteousness (right standing with God), peace ( a peace that only I can give) and joy ( a joy that only My Holy Spirit can give). To enter this kingdom, you must receive Me as your King.

1 CORINTHIANS 3:7: ROMANS 14:17

INSTRUMENTS

I want you to daily offer the members of your body to be used as instruments of My righteousness, joy, peace and love.

I created the members of your body when you were in your mother's womb, and I knew you before the world began.

I created you to reveal My glory (My presence) to all those you meet in life.  I have promised that just as truly as I live, all the earth will one day be filled with My glory.  Until that day, reveal My glory to people.

ROMANS 6:13

DIRECT

There are so many wars going on in your world right not and the leaders of many countries are seeking what direction to take as they make decisions that will affect the world.

You must remember that you are not of this world, but you are in this world.  You now live in the Kingdom of God.

There is only one direction that I want you to take as a member of My kingdom.  Paul prayed this prayer: "And the LORD direct your hearts into the love of God, and into the patient waiting for Christ."

2 THESSALONIANS 3:5

SEARCH

Search engines are a part of your present technical culture.  With the invention of the computer, you can now search for anything you have questions about and quickly find the answers.

There is a search that I want all people to do.  That search is to search for Me.  I have promised that if you search for Me with all your heart, you will find Me.

If you will seek Me, you will find Me.  If you will search for me with all your heart.  Than I will be found by you.  Pray for many who you know to begin to search for Me as the harvest time is now.

JEREMIAH 29:11-14

ROLLED

Just before the women arrived at the tomb where I was placed after My crucifixion, there was a great earthquake, and an angel descended from heaven and rolled the stone away. He then sat upon the stone.

The angel told the women to not be afraid, but to go and tell the disciples that I was risen. I rose on the day of first fruits which happens the day after the last day of Feast of Unleavened Bread.

I do not want you to ever be fearful to go and tell people that I am a living Savior who can redeem those who are bound by strongholds.  I can roll those strongholds away and resurrection life can come to them.

MATTHEW 28:1-8

RISEN

Today you just celebrated My resurrection.  You celebrate this every year, but I long for peoples of all nations to celebrate that miraculous day when I was the first fruit of all those who will believe in Me.

Except a seed is buried in the ground, it cannot spring forth and bear fruit.  I was buried after I was crucified to redeem mankind from the grips of sin.  

I was the perfect sacrifice that made it possible for you to know My heavenly Father as your father (your Abba) also.  I exchanged your unrighteous sin for My righteousness.  Spread this good news everywhere.

MATTHEW 28:6

RULERS

There are rulers of darkness in the physical realm and also the spiritual realm.  You have experienced in these past few years much darkness in the world.

My light is able to penetrate all darkness.  You are the light of the world, and I have given you all authority to penetrate all darkness.  You can do this by using the keys to the kingdom to bind and to loose.

Today you can bind the spirits of darkness and blindness and release My light (the light of My Holy Spirit) to unveil every dark spot of sin and strongholds in the hearts of those you know. and love.

EPHESIANS 6:12

FIRSTFRUITS

This Sunday you will celebrate the day I was resurrected from the dead.  I was raised from the dead on the day of "First Fruits." This year of 2025 both celebrations are on the very same day.

You and all My beloved are the firstfruits of the Spirit and you are eagerly awaiting the resurrection of your body when I return.

Rejoice this Sunday and celebrate the fact that when I died, you died. When I was raised, you were raised to newness of life.  When I ascended, you ascended and you are now seated on My right hand in the Spirit.

ROMANS 8:23

SAFE

I know that you often pray for your family members to arrive "safe and sound" after they travel to another location. You are always relieved when you hear that they arrived safely.

Did you know that the expression "Safe and Sound" is in one of the passages of My Word? The father of the prodigal son killed the fatted calf  to celebrate that his son returned home "safe and sound."

Pray for all the prodigals to return to Me. Many have walked away from Me. I love them and I want them to arrive at My Father's house "safe and sound." Pray they will experience My redeeming power.

LUKE 15:27

REVERENCE

The fear of the LORD is mentioned often in My Word.  To fear Me does not mean that you have to be afraid of Me.  It means that you show reverence to Me and obey My Word.

Wives, you are also exhorted to reverence your husband.  You reverence another person when you show honor to them.  

Now that you are in My kingdom that cannot be moved, and you have received My grace and My mercy and My power, you can serve Me acceptably with reverence and godly fear.

HEBREWS 12:28

REDEMPTION

When I spent My last Passover with My disciples, I lifted up the cup of wine at the end of our dinner.  It was the cup of Redemption that I held up to them.

When I held the cup up, I told them that it represented My blood of the New Covenant that was shed for many for the remission of their sins. They did not understand at that time what I meant.

My blood had to be shed to redeem the world of sin.  Those who will believe in Me and My sacrifice and resurrection will drink the fruit of the vine with Me at the marriage supper of the Lamb.

MATTHEW 26:28

BEHIND

My servant Paul knew the secret to living a fruitful life in My Kingdom on earth.  He wrote that he had not apprehended all that I wanted him to accomplish, but he did not look behind at those things.

He went on to say: "forgetting whose things that are behind, and reaching forth to those things that are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

Paul did not dwell on the past. Instead, he kept moving forward to complete his high calling in Me. Paul did complete those works I planned for him, and you will also as you keep moving forward in My power.

PHILIPPIANS 3:13-14

PRINCIPALITIES

My servant wrote that we are not fighting a fleshly war.  We are fighting a war with principalities, powers, against rulers of darkness of this world, and against spiritual wickedness in high places.

You do have a battle daily with your own flesh.  Since Adam and Eve disobeyed My Father in the Garden of Eden, the prince of this world was able to cause fleshly lusts to be formed in every human being.

Everyone born was born in sin and that is why you have to be born again in order to win the battle you have with your own lusts (the lust of the flesh, the eye, and the pride of life).  

ROMANS 8:38; 1 JOHN 2:15-17

PAVILION

It is hard for you to find a place when you are out in the market place where there is not a lot of noise. You hear so many conversations that include words that you were taught never to speak.

James wrote about how powerful the tongue is.  He said the tongue was like a destroying fire, the rudder of a ship, bits in a horses mouth because those things are hard to tame, and so is your tongue.

Words are containers that can deliver strife, peace, or love. Your tongue is the most powerful weapon Satan can use to hurt others.  I have prepared a pavilion where you can hide from the strife of tongues.

JAMES 3: PSALM 31:20

COMPARE

Paul wrote the church at Corinth that it was unwise to compare themselves with others.  Each person is unique, and those who have surrendered their lives to Me have different assignments.

Those assignments are written in your Book of Life.  Your goal should be to fulfill all the assignments that are written in your Book of Life.  My Holy Spirit will lead you to your next assignment.

Pray every day that My Holy Spirit will help you finish your assignments for that day.  When this is your focus, your focus will be on Me and My work in you.  You then will not compare yourself with others.

2 CORINTHIANS 10:12

KINGDOM

My beloved Paul wrote two letters to Timothy.  Paul felt that I would return soon, and Paul warned Timothy that many would leave the faith and believe in doctrines of devils just before I returned.  

You are today experiencing what Paul warned Timothy about. I clearly told My disciples that the end would not come until the gospel of the kingdom was preached throughout the world.  

Pray for a great harvest, and be alert to share about My kingdom with others.  Many are looking for answers. My gospel is good news because when you are in My Kingdom, you will have peace and joy.

ROMANS 14:17

FORTH

I created you to bring forth much fruit.  I told My disciples that they did not choose Me, but I chose them and ordained them to go and bring forth lasting fruit that would remain always.

Even before the world began, I wrote about the fruit you would bring forth in your lifetime.  When you see Me face to face, you will see all the fruit you have brought forth.

I pray for all believers to bring forth much fruit for My kingdom on earth.  Join Me in that intercession, and pray for your family, your church, and your nation to bring forth much fruit for My kingdom. 

JOHN 15:16

PARTAKERS

My beloved Peter learned so much from My teachings.  He came to understand all of those teachings after I sent the Promise of My Father upon Him at Pentecost.

Peter had already received My Spirit within him when I breathed My Spirit into all My disciples.  This was their born again experience

At Pentecost My Spirit anointed Peter to teach. He taught that believers can be partakers of the My divine nature through the promises of God.  Meditate and memorize these promises daily.

JOHN 20:22; 2 PETER 1:4

READY

In the last letter that Paul wrote Timothy, he said that he was ready to be offered, and that the time of his departure was at hand. I also knew when the time of my departure was at hand.

When I rode into Jerusalem,  I knew that I would soon be crucified.  I was able to face dying for the sins of the world because I knew the joy that would come at My resurrection.

As I took My last breath, I prayed, "Father, forgive them for they know not what they do." Pray for those who do not know how their sins can be forgiven. Pray for a great harvest time of souls.

2 TIMOTHY 4:6; LUKE 15:7

CLEAN

When I walked on earth I healed several lepers.  A leper came to Me and worshipped Me, saying LORD, if  You will, You can make me clean.  

When I put forth my hand and touched him, I said "I will; be clean.  And immediately his leprosy was cleansed.

I am still stretching forth My hand to those who need cleansing in their bodies, souls and spirits.  Pray for those who are bound by unclean spirits.  Bind those unclean spirits and loose My healing to them.

MATTHEW 8:2-3

JUSTICE

I am both just and merciful.  The psalmist wrote: "Justice and judgment are the habitation of thy throne: mercy and truth shall go before thy face (Psalm 89:14)."

Solomon wrote: "To do justice and judgment is more acceptable to the LORD than sacrifice. There are three things that I require of you and they are that you do justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with Me.

Pray for those in government in your country, counties, and cities and in nations worldwide to do justly. Pray for them to humble themselves and ask for My wisdom. Pray that they will come to know Me.

PSALM 89:14; MICAH 6:8

REFRESHING

Just after Pentecost, My servant Peter spoke to all those who were gathered from every nation.  He gave them a message that had a great impact upon the crowds. Three thousand people were saved.

He told them that it was not too late for them to repent and be converted. He promised that if they accepted Jesus as their savior and redeemer, that His presence would bring them times of refreshing.

This is the message I want you to share with others.  So many have lost hope because they are trying to find hope in the world. Refreshing times of hope can only be found in My presence.

ACTS 3:19

ENTER

You often see the sign, "Do not enter."  I desire that all know how to enter My kingdom.  I told Nicodemus that unless he became as a little child and was born again that he could not enter My kingdom.

I told the multitudes that followed me that they must enter in the straight gate. I told them that I could help them enter that straight gate.

There are so many in your culture today who do not know how to even find the straight gate or how they can enter My kingdom. Pray for opportunities daily to share how they can enter into My kingdom.

JOHN 3:5; MATTHEW 7:13-14 

BREAD

When Satan tempted Me, he said, "If You are the Son of God, command these stones to be made into bread." I answered, "Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God."

My Word is your spiritual food. Yet, so many now in this generation do not partake of this spiritual bread. I am the living Word of God and I am the bread of life. Those who believe in Me shall never hunger.

Tomorrow when you break bread with your family, think of  Me.  I have the power to fill all the empty places in your life, and I can fulfill your hunger for peace, joy, and love.

MATTHEW 4:3-4; JOHN 6:35

SUPPLICATION

My servant Paul exhorted believers in Me not to be anxious about anything.  Instead, he told them to pray about everything

He told them to make their requests known to Me by prayer and supplication.  Supplication means loud crying.  Paul was urging believers to cry out to Me whenever they needed help.

My psalmist David wrote Psalm 107 that demonstrates how I will answer your prayers when you cry out to me for deliverance.  Read this psalm sometime today and see how I always hear your cries for help.

PHILIPPIANS 4:6-7; PSALM 107

JOURNEY

I went through many cities and villages in Israel, but I knew that my journey would end in Jerusalem where I was crucified and later resurrected.

I was willing to go to Jerusalem to endure the cross for the joy that was set before Me. I knew that My journey did not end when I was crucified nor did it end when I was resurrected.

Just before I ascended into heaven, I told My disciples that I would return in the same way that I left. I look forward to the journey to receive My bride. On that day you will journey with Me into eternity.

HEBREWS 12:2 (I will resume the blog in one week)

DECLARE

No man has ever seen My Father, but I came to declare My Father on earth. I am God in the flesh and everything that I said on earth came from My Father.

I only said what My Father gave Me to say and I only did what I saw My Father do. I provided the voice on earth that declared all that My Father wanted people on earth to hear.

The teachings I gave were the very words of My Father. When you read My Word, you are reading what My Father wants you to know. I am still speaking to you through My Word and through the Holy Spirit. 

JOHN 1:18
