Matthew 16:1-28

What God said to me – Who do you say that “I AM”?  That is a question you need to ask yourself often.  “I AM” the Christ, the Son of the living God.  “I AM” the Alpha and Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end.  “I AM” creator, redeemer, teacher, the all sufficient one.  “I AM” all you need.  You know that, but do you live like that?  That is why I say you must often ask yourself “who do you say that “I AM””.  Constantly remind yourself of who “I AM” so you will live in the light of that truth.  When there is so much to do, remember who “I AM”.  When you are sad, remember who “I AM”.  When you are tired, remember who “I AM”.  When you are frustrated, remember who “I AM”.  “I AM” all you need – turn to Me.

Matthew 14:1-15:39

What God said to me – Come alone with Me when you are tired, when you are grieving, when you are stressed and overwhelmed for I will comfort you and strengthen you.  There will be more storms coming and if you want to be able to make it through them, you must stop now and spend time with Me.  Come aside, even it it’s only for a few minutes and let Me minister to you for “I AM” able to help you gain perspective and to strengthen you so you can make it through.  When you put Me off because you are so overwhelmed by all you have to do that you think you don’t have time for Me, you will come to the place where you either implode or explode.  Don’t get to that place.  Stop!  Come alone with Me and let Me minister to you for “I AM” sufficient.

Matthew 11:1-13:58

What God said to me – The knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of heaven has been given to you and to all of My children.  However, in order to understand it, you must spend time with Me letting Me teach you and explain the truths to you.  I will reveal to you the deep things of the Father, but you must sit at My feet and listen . . . you must walk with Me and listen.  Ask questions and I will give you understanding.  Obey Me and you will see Me at work.  I will disciple you personally and open My word to you.  “I AM” the word and I will open your heart and mind to My truth when you willingly slip into My yoke.  Without even realizing it, you will be doing My work as we walk together for “I AM” your partner in the yoke.
