1 Samuel 21:1-25:44

What God said to me – Stay still until you learn what I will do for you.  Don’t try to fix things yourself or manipulate people or circumstances to come out the way you want them to.  Stop. Talk to Me.  Listen to Me.  Seek My direction.  Let Me take action on your behalf.  I have a plan that “I AM” carrying out.  Don’t interfere.  You must learn to listen to Me and cooperate with Me.  When I Say stop, you must stop.  When I say proceed, you must do exactly as I direct.  When I say to be silent, don’t utter a word.  Learn this lesson and you will see first hand how I accomplish My purpose in your life and those around you.

1 Samuel 18:1-20:42

What God said to me – Don’t worry no matter what difficulties or trials you may encounter.  “I AM” your God and I have cut covenant with you.  All that I have is yours.  “I AM” your defender.  “I AM” your champion.  Do not be afraid for the battle is mine.  You must not go by appearances or feelings for that will only discourage you.  You must trust Me by faith that I will carry out all I have promised.  Wait and watch expectantly to see My hand at work.  Don’t let others discourage you.  You walk with Me.  Stay close to Me.  I will not only deliver as I promised, I will encourage you so you don’t lose faith in the process.  “I AM” here.  Trust Me.

1 Samuel 16:1-17:58

What God said to me – I look into your heart.  I see what is there.  Don’t try to hide from Me.  I’ve seen into your heart and I love you anyway.  The one who truly loves Me opens his heart to Me to search, to cleanse, to reveal to him what is truly there.  Open your heart willingly so I can search it’s deepest parts.  I already know what’s there – let Me reveal it to you so you can allow Me to deal with it . . . cleanse it.  Yes, sometimes it’s painful but you must trust that I will lovingly show you the truth of who you are so you might be purified . . . so you might be holy.  I love you.
