Exodus 17-18, Job 39, 2 Peter 3

What God said to me – When an athlete reaches peak conditioning as he prepares for an event, he doesn’t stop.  He continues to work diligently until the event is completed knowing that if he slacks off his condition will deteriorate and he won’t be prepared for the actual event.  In the same way you must continue diligently in your walk with Me, never slacking off but continuing to grow in grace and knowledge until the end.  Your goal is to be found by Me in peace, spotless and blameless at My coming.  You must constantly be on guard so you don’t fall away from your steadfastness and faithfulness in your walk with Me.  The only way you can do this is to cling to Me and to be faithful to this daily conversation.  I will encourage and prepare you as well as discipline and teach you so you can walk in a manner worthy of your calling and then you won’t be ashamed at My coming but will rejoice and celebrate.

Exodus 15-16, Job 38, 2 Peter 2

What God said to me – The world is succumbing to the delusion of the evil one.  Society is tumbling toward moral decay and they have no idea what is happening.  They are so deluded they think it is a good thing.  Nations are rising up against My people, Israel.  War is breaking out all over the world.  So much of it makes no sense, but their leaders have succumbed to the delusion.  Don’t be afraid.  Trust in My sovereignty and in My plan.  “I AM” orchestrating events to accomplish My purpose.  You can take comfort in the fact that I have never abandoned the righteous and I will even now deliver them.  I know how to rescue the godly and punish the unrighteous in the day of judgment.  As you see what is happening, know that My plan is unfolding perfectly.

Exodus 13-14, Job 37, 2 Peter 1

What God said to me – The world is becoming more and more corrupt.  It is spiraling toward complete destruction.  Because of this it is becoming more and more important that you apply all diligence in your walk.  Sin is so prevalent in every aspect of society that unless you are diligent in pursuing Me at all times, it is easy to slip away, to make excuses, to justify your sin.  If you want to be useful to Me in these last days you must diligently guard your heart and mind from the ungodly influences around you and you must pursue Me wholeheartedly.  Your peace and steadfastness and commitment will draw others to Me but these same characteristics will alienate others.  Your responsibility is to remain steadfast in your walk and to persevere in godliness.
