Ephesians 3:17-19 …that ye, being rooted and grounded in love, 18 may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth and height; 19 and to know the love of Christ…

May you be aware that as God gives you a concept or an idea, an impression or a vision of His plan and direction for you, others will not always understand or accept it as valid, but even their dismissal, rejection, and attacks will provide a basis for what God has declared for you, for His will is greater than any other, and His voice will be heard over every other, even if it does not come about as you expected, as only the Lord will receive the glory. Genesis 37
May you rejoice that out of chaos, the Lord can bring order, and out of dysfunction, the Lord can bring salvation, for through the line of Judah, whose sons were so evil that God destroyed them, and from the union of Judah in prostitution with his daughter-in-law came the line of the Savior. No situation is beyond the redemptive reach of the Lord, if there is a willingness at some point to receive Him. Genesis 38
May you rejoice that, although the kingdoms of this world are divided against themselves until the enemy of God unites them to stand against His people, they will be defeated by the Spirit of God, because the kingdom of God has come to you. Matthew 12
May you stand with the Lord, obedient and yielded, humble and submitted, determined and dedicated, as a co-laborer gathering the grain and as an under-shepherd collecting the scattered sheep, for those who do not are the ones against Him, trampling the grain and scattering the sheep. Matthew 12
May you store up the Word of God in your spirit that from your heart, good things can come forth for others, for careless words will be given an account of when the day of judging comes. Matthew 12
Will you follow Me in the path I have laid for you, as I walk with you along the way? Or will you choose the path laid by some other which you feel is simpler to understand and easier to see? How long will you halt between two choices, for even putting off the choice is merely trusting in your own abilities and strengths which you have inherited from your father Adam.
Choose, My child, and do not delay. You know enough to make a wise choice. There is One Creator, and all else, all others, have been created. There is One Redeemer, but many destroyers. There is One Source of Love and Light, and all of those who choose to submit and be controlled by that One will walk through the darkness of hate and envy shining brighter and brighter. In that One Source, they will overcome the shadows and bring the light of Truth to the captives, dispelling the hate by the Love that overflows from the heart of the One Father in heaven.
Choose rightly, My child, for though the way I lead you in is hard, My steadfast love never ceases; though you endure times of silence when My voice is not heard, My mercies never come to an end. Though you do not possess the benefits of the world which surround you, you have your inheritance in Me and My promises will not fail.
Follow Me in the work I assign and see the marvelous unfolding of My plan. Watch the glorious process of My will being established in the hearts of all who receive Me. Join Me in the harvest field of the market-place, wherever I place you, and rejoice over the victories that My wisdom brings about. Enter into the rest that your choice will bring as you yield to Me.
May you take refuge in God for safety as you confess that He is your Lord, for apart from Him you have no good thing, and your delight is in the glorious saints of God, who are your heroes in the faith. Psalm 16
May you not take up the names of other gods on your lips or behave in the way of those who do, for their sorrows will run deep and increase as they run them. Psalm 16
May you confess that the Lord has assigned you your portion and your cup, making your lot secure, and may you testify to how pleasant the place is that your boundary lines have given you for a delightful inheritance. Psalm 16
May you praise the Lord Who counsels you, even at night when He speaks to your heart, since you have set the Lord before you at all time, keeping His Word at your right hand so that you will not be shaken. Psalm 16
May your heart be glad and your tongue rejoice, allowing your body to rest secure, knowing that the Lord will not abandon you to the grave, but keep you with His Holy One, far from decay, with eternal pleasures at His right hand, as you walk in the path of life He shows you and receive His in-filling presence with joy. Psalm 16
May you not withhold good from those who deserve it, when it is in your power to act, or say to your neighbor, “Come back tomorrow,” when you have it with you now. Proverbs 3:27-28
May you not envy a violent man or choose any of his ways for the Lord detests a perverse man but takes the upright into His confidence. Proverbs 3:32
