2 Timothy 1-4, Psalms 119:129-144

What God said to me – The unfolding of My word gives light and understanding.  To unfold My word takes time and commitment.  There are many layers and hidden depths in My word that are not easily discovered.  As you spend time with Me reading, studying, listening, asking questions, wrestling through the difficult truths, the light becomes brighter.  Only those who are truly diligent will discover the deepest and most profound truths.  These are the ones who will come to know Me intimately and deeply.  Are you one of those?

Esther 8-10, Psalms 119:113-128

What God said to me – My word is the heart of My revelation of Myself.  It is I who gives understanding of My word to those who seek Me.  Reading it regularly is not enough for it is easy for that to become the fulfillment of a duty rather than actually hearing from Me.  You must seek Me through study and diligence.  You must cry out to Me for wisdom and understanding.  You must earnestly desire to know Me and what I have to say.  This is so much more than reading or even memorizing My word.  It is a relationship.  It is conversation.  It is devotion.  You cannot fully know Me apart from My word.

Esther 4-7, Psalms 119:97-112

What God said to me – “I AM” not dependent on anyone to carry out My plan.  I can accomplish My purposes through those who are willing as well as those who are not.  You must decide if you are a willing participant in My plan or an unwilling one.  The end will be the same, but the process will be different.  When you choose to walk with Me, seeking My will and direction and cooperate with Me in all I wish to do through you, you will have joy and peace and a relationship with Me that you never imagined.  I, Myself will teach you and guide you.  You don’t need to fear that you might lose your way for My word will be a lamp to your feet and a light to your path.
