Jeremiah 19-20, Psalms 147, 1 Corinthians 3:10-23 to 4

What God said to me – For those who are Mine, “I AM” the foundation of their lives, their savior, and their hope for a future and eternal life.  It’s easy to say and see in your “spiritual” life as you go to church and serve and minister to others, but what about other areas of your life?  Am I the foundation in your business life?  Do you do your work diligently as unto Me?  Do you make your business decisions based on biblical principles?  What about in your family – am I the foundation of your family?  Do you pray and share and worship together?  I should even be the foundation of the times you relax and play – are you known for being My child and for being fair and encouraging to others?  I want to be the foundation of your WHOLE life – of everything you think and do.

Jeremiah 17-18, Psalms 146, 1 Corinthians 3

What God said to me – Where is your hope for the future?  Is it in political parties or candidates to turn your nation around and to have a prosperous future?  You know it’s not.  You know your hope is in Me alone.  You know that “I AM” in control and working out My plan for your good and My glory.  So where are you devoting your time – to Me in My word and prayer or listening to the news and latest polls and worrying about the future?  That’s not to say that you should live in a spiritual bubble and be uninformed about the world around you.  You should take a stand for what is right and godly.  You should be able to articulate your beliefs based on My word and not based on your politics.  Know that leaders come and go based on My sovereign plan so trust Me to save the world, not them.

Jeremiah 15-16, Psalms 145, 1 Corinthians 1:18-32 to 2

What God said to me – You live in an age where society is overwhelmed with contention and animosity – where tolerance and peace are preached by means of intolerance and violence.  I know it is frustrating for you as My child because you can see the truth clearly, but you must understand that you cannot convince the world of the truth – only I can.  Man apart from Me does not accept Me or My word because it is foolishness to him.  He cannot understand truth because these things are spiritually appraised and impossible to grasp apart from My Spirit actively revealing them.  So quit arguing and pray.  Be faithful to present the truth and then back off and let Me work.  You must understand that from the beginning I have used ungodly and corrupt people to accomplish My purposes and I will continue to do so.  Trust Me.
