1 Samuel 26-28, Proverbs 28:15-28

What God said to me – My ways are unsearchable.  No matter how close you are to Me or follow after Me, you will never be able to fully understand Me or My ways.  What you can do is trust Me – trust that “I AM” always good – trust that “I AM” always faithful – trust that I always only do what is right.  When you don’t understand, you must trust.  When you think what I do is contradictory, you must trust.  You must walk with me closely, always listening, always learning.  At those times when you see in a mirror darkly, trust that one day it will be clear.  Walk in faith and trust Me.  I will never violate who “I AM”.

1 Samuel 23-25, Proverbs 28:1-14

What God said to me – It is better to be in the most difficult circumstances ever and be crying out to Me for help and deliverance than to be in the best circumstances and not giving Me a thought.  Good or bad, hard or easy, focus is what matters.  Where is your focus?  Is it on Me no matter what your circumstances or is your focus on your circumstances?  It is just as bad to be focused on your circumstances in prosperous times as it is during difficult times.  You must learn to always set your eyes on things above – on Me – and not on earthly things.  That is how you find peace and contentment despite your circumstances.

1 Samuel 20-22, Proverbs 27:15-27

What God said to me – I have told you often and you know this to be true – that “I AM” carrying out My plan for your life and for the world.  In doing so I use many people who are totally unaware they are accomplishing My purposes.  It’s not just unbelievers, but believers also are used in ways they have no idea.  So, when you reflect on your life, don’t be discouraged when you feel like you have done so little for My kingdom.  You have no idea the things I have accomplished through a word or an act of kindness or a smile.  You continue to seek Me and walk with Me and let Me be responsible for the results.
