Isaiah 7:1-25

What God said to me – Be careful, keep calm, and don’t be afraid.  “I AM” and that is all you need.  The world may seem like it is falling apart, filled with evil and no desire for Me.  Your own life may seem uncertain.  You may encounter difficult circumstances or people who oppose you and speak against you.  Do not lose heart.  Don’t react out of anger or fear.  Be still and know that “I AM” God.  “I AM” your defender.  “I AM” your protector.  Trust in Me and I will take care of it all.  “I AM” your covenant God.  I will take care of you.  Trust me to do what I say.  Listen and do what I say.  Keep your focus on Me and not on people or circumstances, those things will pass away but “I AM forever.  Look past the temporal and set your mind on the eternal.

Isaiah 4:1-6:13

What God said to me – The world is becoming more and more like it was in the days of Noah when the intent of men’s hearts was only evil.  Men are calling evil good and good evil and they have no desire for Me.  But what they say and do does not change the fact that “I AM” high and lifted up.  “I AM” on My throne and in control.  I will show the world My holiness and be exalted by My justice.  You must look to Me.  You must stand firm and not waiver.  Guard your heart and mind with My word and My presence.  Don’t be corrupted by the things you see and hear and don’t desire to fit in.  Stay close to Me.  Stay right with Me.  Then you will hear My voice directing you, comforting you, and encouraging you.  The time is short – stay close.

Isaiah 2:1-3:26

What God said to me – Walk in My light each day.  Purpose each morning to walk with Me.  There is coming a day when I will reign on earth and My light will shine for all to see, but you don’t have to wait for that day.  You have Me now so let’s walk together.  I will show you where to go and what to do each day.  Listen to Me and I will tell you when to speak and when to keep quiet.  Take in stride each thing that comes up during the day for it is from Me.  Just say, “now what Lord” and go on as I direct you.  Don’t worry about all you had planned.  Trust Me to know what is important.  Don’t be overwhelmed by all you “think” needs to be done.  I’ll help you sort it out step by step.
