ABSENT

My servant Paul wrote that when we are home in the body, we are absent from the LORD.  My presence is always with you, but one day you will see Me face to face.

This is what Paul was writing. He sometimes wished that he could be absent from his body so that he could see me face to face.  However, he knew there was still work for him to do on earth.

You are not truly home until you are home with Me in heaven.  This is your destination, and from the time you were born, you are journeying to your true home.  In the meantime, keep doing My will on earth.

2 CORINTHIANS 5:6

UNITE

David prayed that I would unite His heart to fear My name. This is a good prayer for you to pray for My body on earth and for your country.

There has been such great division in families, in churches, and in your government.  The fruit of the anti-Christ spirit is division.  

Bind the anti-Christ spirit and loose My Holy Spirit to heal hearts and bring unity to families, churches, and your government..

PSALM 86:11 

REFRESHING

Shabbot is set aside as a time to focus on Me. It is a day of rest that I desire for all of My beloved to have so they can receive strength for the coming week.  

Shabbot is a day when you spend special times in My presence, in My Word, and in prayer. My presence is with you always, but I daily want you to take time to acknowledge My presence with you.

I desire for you to offer Me the spiritual sacrifices of thanksgiving, praise and worship throughout each day of the week.  When you faithfully do this, you will be refreshed both physically and spiritually.

ACTS 3:19

WAYS

My ways are much higher than your ways and My thoughts than your thoughts. However, I have given to you a way to understand My ways.

My psalmist, David, longed to understand the meaning of My ways so that he could walk faithfully in My ways and obey them.

When I was resurrected, I received from My Father the Promise of My Father.  That promise was the Holy Spirit who I called "the Comforter." I sent Him in power at Pentecost and at last My disciples began to understand My ways.  Ask My Spirit to lead and guide you to know My ways and He will do this.

ISAIAH 55:8

INQUIRE

It is so important that you enquire of Me.  James wrote that if any man lack wisdom, let him ask Me.  I delight when people ask Me for wisdom, and it is My joy to give wisdom to them.

I never upbraid you which means that I do not see your lack of wisdom as an opportunity to scold you over your failures. Instead, when you ask Me for wisdom, this gives Me the opportunity to overwhelm your failures with My generous grace.

All the victories that David won in battle happened because he first enquired of Me.  He asked Me for wisdom.  His failures in battle all resulted because he tried to figure things out himself.

JAMES 1:5; 2 SAMUEL 5:19 

SEALED

Paul wrote about the wonderful benefits that every believer has through Me.  All the promises of God in Me are "Yes and Amen."

Those who are redeemed by Me are also anointed and established by Me,  I want you daily to receive the fresh anointing I have for you.

I have given the earnest of the Spirit in the hearts of believers. Rejoice today as you remember all that I have done for you.

2 CORINTHIANS 1:20-22

SHOUT

Psalm 47 expresses what many who have prayed diligently for revival and awakening to come to your nation. I have heard your prayers for My light to shine upon the darkness in your nation.

Psalm 47:1: "O Clap your hands, all you people; shout unto God with the voice of triumph."  Psalm 47:5 : "God is gone up with a shout, the LORD with the sound of a trumpet."

Psalm 47:6-7: "Sing praises to God, sing praises: sing praises unto our King, sing praises. For God is the King of all the earth: sing you praises with understanding. Continue to pray diligently for I will hear.
