Judges 1:1-2:23

What God said to me – “I AM” always watching.  “I AM” always with you.  Stay close to Me.  Listen to Me.  Respond in obedience when I speak.  Moving away from Me happens one step at a time.  When I speak to you . . . when I warn you . . . when I chastise you – listen to Me.  Turn quickly back to Me or you will find yourself quickly falling away.  Before you realize what has happened, you will be going your own way . . . no longer seeking Me . . . no longer serving Me but serving your own desires.  Don’t let that happen.   Stay close to Me.  Grasp on to every word I say.  “I AM” here and I will not leave you.  In your weakness, cling to Me and I will make you strong.

Joshua 15:1-24:33

What God said to me – “I AM” faithful.  “I AM” a God who keeps His promises.  There has never been one thing I have said that I have not done or will not do.  Nothing can thwart My way or My will.  “I AM” your God and you are My child.  Walk after Me with all your heart.  I will show you My plan, step by step.  Walk with Me.  Serve Me with all of your heart and mind and soul and strength.  I will direct you in the way you should go.  I will open your eyes to see My work.  I will open your ears to hear My voice.  I will open your heart to feel My presence as we fellowship together.  I long for this – do you?

Joshua 11:1-14:15

What God said to me – I will accomplish My purposes in the world and in your life.  Don’t be worried about obstacles . . . don’t be worried about people.  “I AM” in control.  I know from your limited perspective sometimes things seem unfair.  I took the land from one people and gave it to another . . . at My instruction they killed every living person.  What you must never forget is that “I AM” God.  “I AM” righteous.  “I AM” holy.  “I AM” love.  There is nothing that I do that is outside of who “I AM”.  When you can’t see it . . .  when you don’t understand, you must hold on to that truth.  You must trust Me.  In the end, you will see and understand.
