Exodus 2:11-3:22, Matthew 17:10-27, Psalms 22:1-18, Proverbs 5:7-14
What God said to me – You’ve heard of selective hearing where someone hears only the part of what you say but not the rest and later you say, “but I told you.” We’ve all done it or experienced it. Whether it’s because of busyness or self-centeredness or just lack of attention doesn’t matter – it happens, and you can miss important information or details. The disciples were like that. I told them that I was going to be delivered into the hands of men and they would kill Me, but that I would be raised on the third day. What was their response? They were deeply grieved. They focused on the part where I would be delivered up and killed and not on the part where I would be resurrected and because of it they missed the joy they could have experienced then and the peace they could have had during My trial and execution. Instead, they experienced grief and fear. So, as you experience difficulty and trials, keep your focus on My whole word – don’t focus on the present experience, but on My promises. I will never leave you or forsake you – I will work all things for your good because you are Mine. “I AM” faithful and true.
