May you revel in the great goodness of the Lord your God as you eat at His table to the full and are well-nourished with the diversity He provides, for He has given you possession of your soul, redeeming it from the power of death, filling your heart and mind with the good things of His Spirit, wells of living water springing up and overflowing, and the many fruits of His Spirit to bless others and show that the Lord, He is God.

As you partake in the spiritual bounty of Christ, eating and drinking the blessings of the Word and the Spirit, may you keep your heart focused on the Lord and the things of God, worshiping Him only, not distracted by the pleasures of the world; purifying your heart and mind, for to the pure, all things are pure; obeying the Lord in faith and trusting His Word, accepting His provision; exalting and worshiping the Lord with thanksgiving and praise, that you may walk in the newness of life that He brings. 1 Corinthians 10

May you be careful if you think you are standing firm, lest you fall, for when you are tempted, as is common to all people, God, in His faithfulness, will provide a way out, in due time, so that you can stand up under it, without which it would be more than you can bear. 1 Corinthians 10

Trust Me, My child, to bring victory out of defeat, and to bring joy out of sorrow. In faith, My love, day by day, moment by moment, submit in humility to Me as Lord, giving Me the reins of your life, trusting Me to steer and guide you safely through the obstacles you face and past the roadblocks that have hindered you.
Take joy in My presence, and give praise for My leading, even before you see the results, simply for My grace in your life. As you worship, you will see results as relationships change and circumstances shift, for when your ways are pleasing to Me, I make even your enemies to be at peace with you. I will bring you out into a spacious place, rescuing you because I delight in you.
