2 Kings 13-14, Psalms 129, John 13:12-38

What God said to me – I washed the feet of My disciples to give them a visible example of what true humility and having a servant attitude is all about.  Do you desire to please Me in your daily life?  Then look for opportunities to serve others.  The higher your standing and position the greater impression it makes when you are willing to humble yourself and serve others.  Knowing My word and being able to share it and teach it is good but the blessing comes when you actually do it.  People are tired of people preaching at them with no evidence in their lives that demonstrates they actually practice what they preach.  So called Christians actually hinder the spreading of My gospel because of their hypocritical lifestyle.  People long for someone who is genuine and lives out My word in their own life.  You be that person.

2 Kings 11-12, Psalms 128, John 13:1-17

What God said to me – “I AM” always at work in the lives of My children – teaching them through My word and transforming them into My image as they submit to Me in every circumstance.  When I was washing the feet of My disciples, Peter asked Me why I was washing his feet and I told him an important truth – that although he didn’t realize at the time what I was doing, later he would understand.  The same thing is true for many of the things “I AM” doing in your life.  Many times it is difficult to understand what “I AM” teaching you or changing in your life when you are in the midst of the lesson, but afterwards when you have made it through you can look back and see My hand and My faithfulness in working all things together for your good and My glory.

2 Kings 9-10, Psalms 127, John 12:20-50

What God said to me – When My Son, Jesus, was on the earth many rulers of the Jews believed in Him, but because of the pharisees they were not confessing Him publicly for fear they would be put out of the synagogue – they loved the approval of men rather than My approval.  So look at the society you live in today.  Do you hesitate to acknowledge Me publicly or fear of ridicule or of the negative reaction you would receive?  Do you hesitate to pray or to share about what “I AM” doing in your life or in the world or to take a stand against the abominations being committed in the name of “rights” or “love” or “privacy”?  Do you love Me but seek the approval of men also?  You can’t have it both ways.  If you truly love Me and acknowledge Me and stand against the evil in society you will be mocked and denigrated and persecuted by most of them.  Time is growing short – choose you this day whom you will serve.
