Genesis 30-31:16, Matthew 10:1-23, Psalms12:1-8, Proverbs 3:13-15

What God said to me – I sent the twelve disciples out to the lost sheep of Israel with instructions to preach that the kingdom of God is at hand.  It was the same message My Father gave to Me and that I preached to those I encountered during My time on earth.  It was a time of great turmoil because the whole earth was on the verge of a monumental change – of My coming crucifixion and resurrection.  You live in a similar time in that the world is on the verge of a monumental change because “I AM” coming again to fulfill My promise and to establish My kingdom.  So, I give you similar instructions as I gave My disciples – preach the kingdom of God is at hand.  There are many people who are frightened because they sense a sea change that is coming in the world, and they sense that there has to be more to life than what they are experiencing.  You be alert and ready to share with them as My Spirit directs.  “I AM” calling My lost sheep so as I direct them to you, you be faithful to tell them to repent and believe so they can be saved.  My kingdom is at hand.

Genesis 28-29, Matthew 9:18-38, Psalms 11:1-7, Proverbs 3:11-12

What God said to me – “I AM” a faithful God and I always do what I say I will do.  I promised Jacob the land and to make his descendants like the dust of the earth.  Although he was leaving the land, I promised to bring him back.  He left alone with nothing, and I brought him back with wealth and a family.  Later he left the land again and took his family to Egypt during the great famine.  Four hundred and thirty years later, I brought his descendants back by My mighty hand and outstretched arm.  They went into Egypt as a family and came out as a great mass of people back to the land as I promised.  Because of their disobedience, I took them out of the land – in and out as they repented and sinned again.  They were finally dispersed throughout the nations, but I did not forget My promise to Jacob.  I have brought them back to the promised land by the millions, never to leave again and I will restore them to Me and create in them a new heart.  “I AM” a faithful God and I always do what I say I will do.  If you ever begin to doubt just look at Israel to see My faithfulness.

Genesis 26:17-35, 27, Matthew 9:1-17, Psalms 10:16-18, Proverbs 3:9-10

What God said to me – It is so easy to see something and to pass judgment because you think you know what is going on or the way something should be done when you truly don’t have all of the facts.  I said to be quick to hear and slow to speak for a reason.  I also said not to think more highly of yourself than you ought to think but to think so as to have sound judgment.  You would save yourself and others a lot of grief and angst if you just stopped and sought Me before you responded or stepped into a situation where you shouldn’t.  When the men brought the paralytic to Me, before I healed him, I met his most pressing need.  I told him, “Take courage, son; your sins are forgiven.”  But the scribes who observed the situation immediately began to judge even though they had no clue who “I AM” or what I came to do.  It’s easy to become like the scribes and to judge people who are not like you or who don’t do things the way you think they should be done.  Walking with Me is not living by a set of rules that are set in stone.  It is walking after Me and ministering as I direct.  To be able to do this, you must spend much time with Me so I can teach you and transform you.
