Exodus 19-20, Job 40, Luke 1:1-45

What God said to me – I called Israel to be My own possession among all the peoples of the earth.  I called them to be a kingdom of priests and a holy nation.  Their responsibility was to live for Me and serve Me and worship Me and in doing so they would lead the world to Me.  As a whole they failed miserably but there were a few who were faithful, some of whom saw and recognized the coming of My Son.  Then I called My church to be a people of My own possession.  I called them to be a kingdom of priests and a holy nation.  Their responsibility was also to live for Me and serve Me and worship Me and in doing so lead the world to Me.  You, My child, are part of My church.  So how are you doing in living up to your responsibility?  Are you living for Me and serving Me and worshipping Me?  Time is running out.  Faithfulness in your calling is necessary if you want to hear Me say “well done”.

Exodus 17-18, Job 39, 2 Peter 3

What God said to me – When an athlete reaches peak conditioning as he prepares for an event, he doesn’t stop.  He continues to work diligently until the event is completed knowing that if he slacks off his condition will deteriorate and he won’t be prepared for the actual event.  In the same way you must continue diligently in your walk with Me, never slacking off but continuing to grow in grace and knowledge until the end.  Your goal is to be found by Me in peace, spotless and blameless at My coming.  You must constantly be on guard so you don’t fall away from your steadfastness and faithfulness in your walk with Me.  The only way you can do this is to cling to Me and to be faithful to this daily conversation.  I will encourage and prepare you as well as discipline and teach you so you can walk in a manner worthy of your calling and then you won’t be ashamed at My coming but will rejoice and celebrate.

Exodus 15-16, Job 38, 2 Peter 2

What God said to me – The world is succumbing to the delusion of the evil one.  Society is tumbling toward moral decay and they have no idea what is happening.  They are so deluded they think it is a good thing.  Nations are rising up against My people, Israel.  War is breaking out all over the world.  So much of it makes no sense, but their leaders have succumbed to the delusion.  Don’t be afraid.  Trust in My sovereignty and in My plan.  “I AM” orchestrating events to accomplish My purpose.  You can take comfort in the fact that I have never abandoned the righteous and I will even now deliver them.  I know how to rescue the godly and punish the unrighteous in the day of judgment.  As you see what is happening, know that My plan is unfolding perfectly.
