Luke 6:36 Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful.

Psalm 36:7-9 How precious is Thy lovingkindness, O God!

May you be encouraged in your assignment and strengthened in your work by God's promise to be your source for all you need, for your might will run out and your abilities will be exceeded, but His Spirit is eternally present and His anointing is daily renewed, so that the mountains you face can be conquered and the tasks that need doing will be completed, and all will know that you were sent by the Lord Almighty. Zechariah 4

May you rejoice in the day of small beginnings and the time required for standards to be established, for as the plumb line of the Lord is followed and your heart and mind are aligned with the will of God, all that He will do through you will be straight and true. Zechariah 4

May you walk in the honesty and integrity of the Lord so that you may be built up in Him and strengthened in the inner man, allowing the Spirit of God to purge from you the greed and self-protection of the fleshly nature, the craving and self-promotion of the world system, the arrogance and self-worship of the spirit of man, for those things draw the curse of God and cause it to remain where it will destroy the structure and fiber of your life. Zechariah 5

I am One; I am fully agreed within Myself. There are no divisions or dissensions within Me, no contradictions or conflicts, no internal warring or struggle.
That which you have not yet understood and cannot yet comprehend will be made clear to you as you trust My Word, rest on My promises, obey My commands, and grow into maturity with your spiritual senses of discernment exercised by reason of use.
I am the Lord of the night-time's darkness just as I am the Master of the day-time's brilliance – both are the same to Me for I use them equally for My purpose and My will. I guide you down paths that you may not agree with, and may find no pleasure in. I show you My love in ways you may not understand, but which will not stop you from finding joy in My presence, even as My Son has demonstrated.
Set down your opinions and release your understandings, humble yourself before Me and yield your will to Mine that our purposes may be One. Thus you will know the overcoming power of walking in agreement with Me and experience the victorious authority over self that you seek.

May you join with others from every nation, tribe, language and people to fear God and give Him glory, because the hour of His judgment is coming. Revelation 14

May you possess the patient endurance, along with the other saints, to obey God's commandments and remain faithful to Jesus. Revelation 14

May you cry aloud to the Lord, lifting your voice to the Lord for mercy as you pour out your complaint before Him, for when your spirit grows faint within, it is He Who knows your way and cares for you, providing refuge in His concern for your life. Psalm 142

May you cry to the Lord when you are in desperate need of rescue from those who pursue you, for they are too strong for you. The righteous will gather about you when the goodness of the Lord sets you free from your prison and you praise His name. Psalm 142
