2 Chronicles 11-13, Romans 8:26-39, Psalms 18:37-50, Proverbs 19:27-29

What God said to me – The worst thing that can happen in a person’s life is not sickness or disease or disability or poverty or persecution or trials or tribulation or even death – the worst thing that can ever happen to anyone is to be separated from Me.  I realize it is not the answer you would get if you asked people, and yet it is true.  All of the other things are temporal, but a relationship with Me is eternal  To be My child – to know Me – is a blessing beyond measure – it should be a daily cause of awe and wonder and worship that I chose you and called you and saved you and am sanctifying you as you walk with Me knowing that there is nothing that can ever separate you from Me or from My Presence.  You are Mine.  I chose you.  I saved you. I love you.  “I AM” at work in you to sanctify you.  “I AM” preparing a place for you.  “I AM” coming for you that where “I AM” there you may be also.  I will never leave you or forsake you.  Absolutely nothing can ever separate you from Me.  Hallelujah!

2 Chronicles 8:11-10:19, Romans 8:9-25, Psalms 18:16-36, Proverbs 19 :26

What God said to me – It seems the older you get and the worse the world gets, the more you long for My coming and the more you look forward to the day when you will be in heaven with Me.  Those who don’t know Me say that’s just “pie in the sky” – while it sounds wonderful, it’s not reality, it’s just a pipe dream.  However, My plans for you are for a future and a hope.  I have given you My Spirit as a pledge and a guarantee that I will fulfill My promise to you.  My Spirit Himself testifies with your spirit that you are My child and as My child you are fellow heir with My Son, Jesus Christ.  So, while you groan because of the difficulties and darkness you experience in this world, remember the sufferings of this present time can’t compare with the glory that is to come.  Keep your eyes set on things above – on Me – so that you walk in the Spirit and in a manner worthy of your calling.  “I AM” your Abba Father – keep your eyes on Me.

2 Chronicles 6:12-8:10, Romans 7:14-8:8, Psalms 18:1-15, Proverbs 19:24-25

What God said to me – Sometimes the greatest battle you face as a Christian is the battle within – walking in the Spirit or walking in the flesh.  It is a constant struggle because you live in an ungodly world and you are surrounded by and bombarded with ungodly images and culture from television and movies to just walking down the street and ungodly behavior is touted as normal.  So, what are you as My child to do so you can walk in a manner worthy of your calling?  There is an old Sitting Bull quote about having an evil dog and a good dog inside of him who are constantly fighting – when asked which one wins out, he replied, “the one I feed the most.”  The same is true for you – I have given you everything you need for life and godliness. I have even put My Spirit in you, so you are without excuse when you choose sin over walking with Me.  The more you feed on My word and seeking Me in prayer and fellowship, the less you will find yourself choosing to follow the flesh.  I will make you holy and sanctify you as you walk with Me moment by moment.  Let Me do My perfect work in you.
