Philippians 1-4

What God said to me – Very few are content today.  Are you content with where I have you?  The secret to contentment is knowing Me and trusting Me.  When you truly trust Me, you understand that whatever circumstances you find yourself in you know that “I AM” with you and “I AM” working out My plan for your life.  “I AM” training you and teaching you to walk by faith and not by sight.  “I AM” teaching you that true contentment and peace come not from favorable circumstances, but from My presence.  When you are discontent, either you are not where I want you to be, or you are not trusting My sovereignty in your life – either way you must repent and come back to Me in trust and faith that “I AM” at work in you for your good and My glory.

Ephesians 4-6

What God said to me – The world is being deluded by the enemy.  Because they have turned away from Me, they have opened the door.  You are in a battle but your battle is not against flesh and blood but is against powers and world forces that you cannot see or fully understand.  That is why you must stay close to Me and in My word.  Consciously put on My armor every day.  Ask for wisdom and discernment so you can understand how to respond when you face not only blatant sin but also the subtle things all around you that are actually rebellion against Me.  This outright flaunting of sin did not happen overnight.  It began with a subtle turning away. Be alert so you don’t succumb to the delusion.  Stay close to Me – it is the only way to keep from falling.

Ephesians 1-3

What God said to me – Do you want to be like Me?  Then be kind.  Kindness is probably not one of the attributes you think about when you think about Me, but I demonstrate kindness continually to My children.  It was because of My kindness that I predestined you to adoption as My child.  It was because of My kindness that I made known to you the mystery of My will.  It was because of My kindness that I sent My Son and extended My grace to you for salvation.  So as you walk with Me I want you to be kind to those you encounter.  Let your reputation among men be one of kindness.  When you are kind you show them what I look like.  People may not always accept your kindness – they didn’t accept Mine – but you can know that “I AM” pleased with you.
