Just as the love of God was shown to the Israelites by His gift to them of Solomon, who ruled in wisdom and whose kingdom brought peace and richness of life to them, so may you begin to understand the depth of the value He places on His people by giving His Son, Jesus, to redeem them from the enemy and establish them in His kingdom with all the wisdom and power of His Spirit, the strength and truth of His Word, and riches of all spiritual gifts in the heavenlies that His will may be established on earth as it is in heaven. 2 Chronicles 2

The goal of those in the world is pleasure, My child. Some seek to achieve it through power, some through riches, some through skills and talents, others simply through experiences and circumstances; but all desire to know the joys and delights that the soul of man hungers for. Each one struggles to gain self-satisfaction and to feel self-sufficient, but the sweetness turns bitter in their throat as soon as they achieve what they sought.
The ruler of this world has lied to them, making them believe that what appeals to the flesh and to the natural mind will satisfy the inner man, when in truth, that which is taken from others, by stealth, force, fear and coercion is only ashes and dust, leaving the receiver in greater hunger and despair than before.
Be not of the world, My child, even as I am not of the world. I was anointed by the Father with the Holy Ghost and power for the work I was assigned and predestined to do, and I went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil.
When My work at Calvary was completed, having defeated death, hell, and the grave, I became your advocate, your high priest, pure, blameless, undefiled by all I had passed through, even though I was despised and forsaken by men, a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief.
Be wise, My child, and understand that the way to receive lasting joy is through giving, not hoarding, and through laying down, not picking up. Though it is not what your experience in the world has shown you, it is the enduring principle of My kingdom. Simply by walking in obedience to My leading and humbly accepting My nature, you will see this change take place in your heart toward others.
Your study of My Word will begin to open your eyes to see in eternity. Learn that it is in service that you will be exalted, and it is in obedience that you learn authority. When you realize the depth and extent of your dependence on Me, even to the next breath and for each heartbeat, then praise will be your response to My grace, and worship will pour forth from your heart.
As you see how devastatingly immense your need is, you will find how incomprehensibly abundant My willing provision is. It is in your boasting of Me, My child, that you will find My joy in you.
May you take refuge in the Lord, Who will keep you safe, for apart from Him you have no good thing. Psalm 16
May the godly people in the land be the heroes you admire and in whom you take great delight, for those who lead holy lives on earth are the nobles ones who fill you with joy. Psalm 16

May you praise the Lord, Who counsels you and instructs your heart, even at night, because you have set the Lord always before you and you will not be shaken since He is at your right hand. Psalm 16
May your heart be glad and your tongue rejoice, allowing your body to rest secure since you know that God will not abandon you to the power of the grave nor will He leave you in the power of death. Psalm 16
May you be filled with joyful abundance in the presence of God, finding the sweetness of victory and eternal pleasures at His right hand, for He has shown you the path of life. Psalm 16
May you get godly advice and receive loving instruction so you may walk safely in the wisdom of the Lord. Proverbs 19:20
