Psalms 126-132

What God said to me – Don’t ever forget that while you may sow in tears, you will reap in joy.  This life – this walk with Me is not easy.  I could spare you all heart ache and grief, but your faith would never grow, and you would never mature.  You would also never be able to minister to those around you who are hurting because it’s as you come along side those who are experiencing difficulty and grief that you share My faithfulness to see you through it.  It is why you can intercede for them effectively – because you have been there also.  It is why I took on humanity.  I intercede for you now because I know what it is to suffer and struggle.  Walk faithfully with Me each day trusting that all I take you through has a purpose that is for your good and My glory.  The day is coming when you will reap in joy.

Psalms 120-125

What God said to me – “I AM” not just your help in time of trouble but “I AM” also your keeper.  Once you belong to Me, you are Mine forever.  “I AM’ the keeper of your soul and nothing can take you out of My hand.  My desire for you is to walk with Me each day, seeking My will and allowing Me to fulfill My plan in and for you.  But if you slip away – know this – I will come for you.  I will discipline you to bring you back to Me because you are now and always My child.  I will never let you go no matter what you do.  I love you now and always and I will not change My mind.

Psalms 119

What God said to me – Do you want to walk in a manner worthy of your calling?  Then you must be in My word regularly.  Do you want to please Me and love and serve Me with all of your heart, strength, mind, and soul?  Then you must be in My word regularly.  My word has inherent power to change your heart.  For the most part it is how I speak to My children.  When you don’t know what to do or which way to go, you must prayerfully turn to My word to seek My direction.  Cry out to Me and I will speak to you.  I long to hear from you and to speak to you.  One of the main reasons My children don’t hear Me speak is that they neglect My word.  You will never truly worship Me in spirit and in truth apart from My word because My word is that which produces reverence for Me in you.  “I AM” the word so when you neglect the word, you are neglecting Me.
