Ruth 1-4, Proverbs 23:1-18

What God said to me – Apply your heart to discipline and your ears to words of knowledge.  It takes effort to learn discipline and to accept discipline.  It is much easier to go your own way, but discipline is to be desired, not avoided or dreaded.  It is not easy to submit yourself to My discipline, but there is great reward in living a disciplined life.  Walk with Me and let Me disciple you, for that is what it means to walk with Me.  You become My disciple just as much as Peter or James or John.  You can become a part of My inner circle by devoting yourself to discipline.  As you walk after Me as My disciple, I will reveal Myself to you.

Romans 14-16, Proverbs 22:17-29

What God said to me – Incline your ear and hear My words.  Apply your mind to understand My teaching for “I AM” your teacher.  “I AM” the one who gives you understanding and reveals deep and hidden truths.  “I AM” the word so I alone can give you understanding.  Listen to Me and I will teach you.  Walk with Me and I will instruct you.  Many things in My word are not understood without spending much time in meditation and “wrestling” with Me to grasp them.  Commit yourself to spending that time and I will show you great and wondrous things that you do not know.

Romans 12-13, Proverbs 22:1-16

What God said to me – Do this – knowing the time.  Do what?  Whatever I instruct you to do.  Time is drawing short.  I know you feel it as do others.  Remember that I never do anything without revealing it to My children.  As you walk with Me always keep the time in the back of your mind like someone who has an appointment later in the day – working, but always keeping an eye on the clock.  Obey with a sense of urgency.  Walk with Me with a sense of desperation that causes you to cling to Me for fear of missing what “I AM” about to do.
