PLANS

It is good for you to plan ahead, but when you walk in My Spirit, it is a moment by moment walk.
Hold loosely your future plans and embrace the moments I give you.  Be alert to the opportunities I give you during the minutes of each day.

The walk in My Spirit is an unfolding walk that flows from one divine appointment to another.  Recognize that whoever is in the moment besides you is someone who needs a word of encouragement and exhortation.  As the days draws nigh to My coming, things in the world will become more difficult for everyone.

Take every opportunity to sow My Word into the hearts of those you see or talk with during each day.  My Word has sustaining power, and it also is the foundation that your faith is based upon.
Review My promises and hold tightly to them in the days ahead.

EPHESIANS 5:15-16

SABBATH REST

There is a Sabbath rest that I desire for all who believe in Me to keep.  When you rest every care upon Me, and believe with all of your heart that I will help you with those cares, you then enter that "Sabbath Rest."

As long as you try to work out things on your own without My help, you will experience frustration and tension.  The "Sabbath Rest" only occurs in your life when you cease from your own works and strivings to accomplish My will, and instead ask the "Helper" I sent you to help you.

The Children of Israel never entered the "Sabbath Rest" because of their unbelief.  Today release every care to Me and believe that I not only will hear your prayers, but I also will answer them.  Believe that I am able to perfect everything that is a concern to you, and freely ask My Holy Spirit to help you throughout the day.

HEBREWS 3:19; PSALM 138:8

RETIREMENT

I have no retirement program.  The moment you accepted Me as your LORD and SAVIOR, you entered the program of My kingdom.  My kingdom is eternal, and as you live out your days, keep in mind that living in My kingdom offers no pay, but it does offer blessings upon blessings.

Your job description is "Doing the will of My Father."  It is My Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom, but your part is to receive the instructions of My Spirit as He leads you to do and say what is My Father's will.  When you trust and obey Me, you will have a joy-filled life no matter how many trials you may experience.

Commit your day and your way to My Holy Spirit in the morning, and at the end of the day you will see how I have been able to share My kingdom with others.  My kingdom is not meat or drink, but it is righteousness, peace, and joy in My Holy Spirit.  Enjoy walking in My Kingdom today, and allow My Holy Spirit to re-fire you with My anointing.

ROMANS 14:17; LUKE 12:32

DESIGNATE

I know that at times you feel like you just aimlessly go through a day without much of a plan.  However, when you pray every morning that I will direct your path and put you in the right place at the right time, you can be confident that I will answer that prayer.

I have a designated assignment for you daily.  To tune into that assignment, all you have to do is listen to the gentle promptings of My Holy Spirit.  My Spirit will give you the direction you need because daily you do have a designated design for your life.

Remember that your life is not your own.  You were bought with the precious price of My own blood.  Therefore, My life within you will be demonstrated in what you do and say as you depend upon My Spirit moment by moment.

1 CORINTHIANS 6:20

AUDIENCE

I do not want to make you uncomfortable, but I do want you to know that you have an audience that observes you each moment of the day.  I and My Father and My Holy Spirit observe you and there are angels who also observe you.  Be on the alert because there are also demonic spirits who observe you.

Father, My Holy Spirit, and I observe you to help you through the day.  My angels also stand ready to give you assistance throughout each moment of the day.  My angels hearken to the voice of My Word and the sound of My name. Whenever you speak My Word or call out My name, they come to attention and stand ready to give you aid. Angels are ministering spirits sent to assist all those who believe in Me.

The demonic spirits cannot read your mind, but they observe your actions and they hear what you say.  They constantly look for weaknesses in your flesh so that they can oppress and harass you.  Remember always that you do have an audience.  However, you are not a performer.  You live and move and have your being in Me.  Your actions and what you say should always reflect and demonstrate Who I am in you.

PSALM 103:20; HEBREWS 1:14;ACTS 17:28

TREAT

I know that your goal is to treat others as you would like them to treat you.  However, sometimes in a moment of weakness, your flesh wins over your spirit and others may be hurt by what you say or do.

To overcome the tendency to give in to your fleshly emotions and thoughts, you have to depend upon My Holy Spirit moment by moment.  Pray quietly when someone is rude to you.  Those few moments in silent prayer will enable you to respond in love rather than react in your flesh.

Know with great assurance that I sent you My Helper, My Holy Spirit, to be on duty night and day in your life.  However, your part is to depend upon Him and to be conscious of His presence with you all during the day.  Offer your body to Me daily and ask Me to use you as an instrument of My righteousness, peace, love, and joy.  When you do this in the morning, you will be ready to respond in love every moment of the day.

ROMANS 12:1-2

GOING

I have heard you many times say, "I am going to do that."  Often you do not do what you were going to do."  Instead of thinking about what you are going to do later, I want you to live in the moment.

Moments are very precious and faith can only work in the present moment.  I want you to treasure each moment I give you, and I want you to be sensitive to My Spirit as He leads you to say or do something in that moment that will glorify Me.

Take every moment as an opportunity to share My love and My words with others.

HEBREWS 11:1
