May the days of difficulty and the times of temptation in your life, when the Lord brings you through seasons of want and turns bitter in your belly that which you seek most readily, cause you to turn to the Lord with the same earnestness and trust with which you praised Him in the times of victory and blessing, casting your cares completely upon Him and pouring out your heart submissively unto Him, not falling away in fret, distrust, and murmuring against Him or each other. Exodus 15
May you listen carefully to the voice of the Lord your God and do what is right in His eyes, and may you pay attention to His commands and keep all His decrees, so that He will not bring on you any of the diseases He brought on the Egyptians, for He is the Lord Who heals you. Exodus 15
May you have the eyes to see the kindness, mercy, compassion and grace of the Lord in His deliverance, redemption, and rescue as He moves you away from the comfort which had captured you and kept you in bondage, preventing you from receiving His promise, and how God is using the wilderness He sets you in to remove the Egypt from you now that He has removed you from Egypt, and may you respond to Him during that time with praise, gratitude, and thanks, believing and trusting Him in all that He does. Exodus 16
May you know, as you minister the Word of God to others, that resistance and disagreement is not towards you, but to the Lord, Who is not frightened by it, or shaken concerning it, but will, Himself, respond befittingly, for He knows the heart, and will meet honest questions and doubt with grace and compassion, while giving rebuke to those with hardened hearts. Exodus 16
May you recognize that even in God's provision for you, He leaves you the need to work to gather, prepare, and distribute His blessings, that you may learn diligence, prudence, gratitude, and duty, acknowledging that which only God can accomplish, and completing that which you are called upon to do. Exodus 16
May you be accepting of what God provides, trusting of His wisdom and grace, not accepting lies or deceit from the enemy, but receiving with gratitude what God supplies, without comparisons to others, for the Lord gives each enough, and will not be so uncaring toward you as to give what you are not yet prepared to get. Exodus 16
May you learn from the wilderness that while the Lord provides and protects, He does not promise comfort and ease, or peace and serenity, for the wilderness is a time and place of effort and change, confrontation and battle, dealing with the challenges within and resisting the attacks from without, learning that the Lord, He is God, and His grace, not your strength, is sufficient. Exodus 17
Let My light shine, My child, on all that you encounter. Bring your acquaintances, fellow-workers, family members, new-found friends, long-time companions before Me that the light of My glory may touch their lives.
Dwell in My Presence, My love, and let the brilliance of My glory change your heart and your mind, burning off the built-up layers of wood, hay, and stubble that comes from the world and allowing the floating ashen remnants to drift away as the gleaming gold, silver, and precious gems of My nature and My spirit are brightened and cleansed in the radiance of My eternal holiness.
Know that the light of My righteousness will rise in your heart as you revere Me, and bring healing to your spirit and your life, as well as to the lives of those who fear My name with you, and bring the new strength of My joy to you each day.
See how the world and your circumstances, events and those involved in them, all change from hopeless impossibilities to glorious possibilities when you look at them in the light of My truth and power, My mercy and grace, My love and compassion rather than the shadow of your understanding and resources.
Humble yourself to acknowledge My glory and to seek My face, and see what I will do in My time.
