1 Samuel 28-29, Psalms 106:1-27, Romans 10

What God said to me – What do you do when you live in the midst of an ungodly nation who has forgotten or denied all of the ways I have blessed them in the past?  How are you to live in a society that has rejected Me and gone their own way and so is on the verge of total destruction?  Look at the example of Moses.  He did not give up on his people or withdraw from them.  He stood in the breach and prayed.  He prayed for their repentance. He prayed for their return to Me.  He prayed for My grace and mercy.  He called out their sin and warned them of the coming judgment.  So rather than be overwhelmed at all that is happening in society and the hateful rhetoric and ungodliness that is being applauded, you stand in the gap and pray.  Quit looking to those who are running for office to save your nation and turn your focus to Me.  Pray for My will to be done and trust that whatever happens “I AM” in control and working out My plan.

1 Samuel 26-27, Psalms 105:23-45, Romans 9:6-33

What God said to me – During Moses time My people were trapped in an ungodly, idolatrous society with ungodly, idolatrous leaders and they cried out to Me for deliverance.   As My deliverance grew closer, their circumstances worsened – Pharaoh blamed them for the plagues and cracked down on them even more.  In hindsight they saw how the plagues eventually brought about their deliverance but when they were in the midst of them, they didn’t see or understand how I could use these bad things for their good.  My people are once again beginning to cry out to Me for deliverance as they are trapped in a society that is becoming more and more ungodly and idolatrous.  You need to be prepared for things to get worse as My deliverance approaches so when you see disease running rampant and natural disasters bringing so much destruction and wars and division abounding don’t be afraid but cry out to Me.  Deliverance is coming not from an election or world leader, but from Me.

1 Samuel 25, Psalms 105:1-24, Romans 9:1-24

What God said to me – I chose you to be My child not because of who you are or because of anything you have done or will do, but because of who “I AM”.  I chose to have mercy on you and to extend My grace to you so you might become My child because I love you and I have a plan for your life.  Never forget this truth but meditate on it and let the awe-filled wonder of it fill your heart and mind.  This should drive you to worship.  This should fill you with gratitude and wonder that I would choose one and not another and that “one” is you.  Not only did I choose you, but I want to spend time with you and teach you and transform you and use you as you submit to Me in obedience.  Approach this time with awe-filled wonder as I reveal Myself to you.
