1 Chronicles 2:1-5:26

What God said to me – I have a name that is above all names and yet I know your name.  Your name is recorded in a long line of My children’s names.  You belong to Me.  Just as each one in the long list of genealogies served My purposes and fulfilled My plan, so I have a plan for you.  Read the names . . . see how I fulfilled My promise and preserved My people.  Know that I will do the same for you.  “I AM” a God who keeps promises.  It may seem bleak.  It may not seem possible but I always bring My children through the trials and restore them to the place I called them to be.  Trust Me.

2 Kings 25:1-30 1 Chronicles 1:1-50

What God said to me – I have a plan that “I AM” carrying out.  I can use anyone or anything to accomplish My purpose.  Nothing can thwart or stop Me.  “I AM” sovereign.  Never forget that one fact.  “I AM” sovereign.  “I AM” always in control whether you see it or not.  You must trust in that.  You must live in the light of that.  You must surrender yourself to be used by Me.  Don’t think of yourself as insignificant, think of yourself as one of Mine.  As you read name after name of people in My word, most you have no idea who they were or what they did and yet they were an important link in the chain of My plan. No one is insignificant to Me.  I know your name.

2 Kings 23:1-24:20

What God said to me – The way to please Me is to obey My word wholeheartedly.  Do not compromise.  Follow Me fully and completely.  Very few of My children are totally devoted to Me.  It is so easy to fall away.  The world is so enticing.  Look at the kings of Judah – even most of those who did what was right in My sight left the high places.  They wanted to be liked . . . to be popular . . . to fit in with the world rather than please Me fully.  Commit yourself to Me wholeheartedly.  Refuse to compromise.  To be constant you  must spend much time with Me.  Look at every situation, every word you speak through My eyes.  Let Me change your heart.
