Joshua 1-3, Psalms 52

What God said to me – I always go before you to prepare the way.  You have no idea the lengths I go to so that My purpose is accomplished in your life.  Sometimes I reveal it to you and sometimes I don’t.  But you can always know this – I have a plan and “I AM” carrying it out.  You must learn to rejoice when the way is easy, knowing I made a smooth path for you.  You must also learn to rejoice when the way is difficult, knowing that I determined that way as well.  There are so many things that can only be learned on the difficult path.  You need to be extra alert and extra receptive during these times because “I AM” taking you down that road for a special reason.

James 3-5, Psalms 51

What God said to me – Live the life I give you today.  Don’t worry about the past or be anxious about the future.  The things I have for you today will prepare you for the future.  Spend time with Me in My word.  Go about your life – work – spend time with family.  Learn to be godly in the mundane things of everyday life.  You have no idea how this will prepare you and strengthen you for any difficult thing you may encounter in the future.  Discipline is a key to developing steadfastness and the ability to be content no matter your circumstances.  Daily discipline – both physical and spiritual.  Work hard today so you are prepared for tomorrow.

James 1-2, Psalms 50

What God said to me – Faithfulness to the end is not an easy thing to achieve.  You cannot persevere apart from Me.  “I AM” the one who gives you strength to carry on even when you don’t think it’s possible.  “I AM” faithful.  Cling to that.  Repeat it over and over.  Let this be your mantra when you have nothing else – “I AM” faithful.  Cling to me in the storm.  When you can’t go on, you must hold on.  When you’ve lost your faith, cry out to Me and I will give you faith.  In Me you live and move and have your being – I will not let go of you until you are safely home with Me.
