Philemon 1, Psalms 85

What God said to me – Restoration is at the heart of who “I AM”.  There is no one who has not failed and fallen away from Me.  My heart’s desire is to restore them to fellowship.  Remember this when you stumble – when you sin and fall away.  Don’t hesitate to return.  Don’t put it off for a moment.  I long to forgive the repentant and restore them to a right relationship with Me.  Each moment you put it off due to shame or embarrassment just adds to the divide and makes it more difficult for you to surmount and return.

Jonah 1-4, Psalms 84

What God said to me – There is blessing in walking with Me.  That is not to say there will never be trials or difficult circumstances.  After all of this you are still swayed by the misconception that that those who walk with Me have happy, easy lives and those who don’t have trials and tribulations.  The blessing in walking with Me is not that things are always easy or worry free – the blessing is in walking “with Me”!  “I AM” the blessing because “I AM” there to guide you and teach you and comfort you and transform your life.  Don’t look to circumstances to find blessing – look to Me.

1 Kings 20-22, Psalms 83

What God said to me – Do you see – things have not changed so much.  From the beginning My enemies have sought to destroy My people.  I have been patient, but I will not be patient for much longer. My name will be glorified in all the earth.  I will put My enemies under My feet, and I will establish My people as I have promised.  The end is approaching quickly.  Live in such a way that you will not be ashamed at My coming.  Live with urgency.  Don’t be lazy or complacent.  Be wholly devoted to Me.
