May you serve those who have less than you in order to honor Him Who has served you. 1 Corinthians 11

What person among men can stand before Me on an equal basis, My child? All flesh is dust and, as the flower of the field, withers in the heat of the day. Fear no man, My dear one, nor be anxious about their opinion, but love them from My heart, and minister to them as I do, for the sun and the rain fall equally on the just and unjust alike. All are created in My image and are worthy of respect, courtesy, and acknowledgment as My creation, and as a soul for whom I died, even as for you.
What power in the world, that men recognize as greater than themselves, will not obey when I speak to it? The winds blow, tornadoes whirl, hurricanes turn, yet when I say “halt,” they do not go beyond My boundaries; when fire ravages the countryside, those that I choose to protect, for My purpose and My praise, are not touched. Do not fear the powers of creation, My love, for I hold them in My hand, and they obey My word as servants, acknowledging My will as theirs, even as you do.
What authorities in the heavens, that men align themselves with in rejection of Me, have not been conquered and defeated by Me? Though they skulk and scurry through My creation seeking to resist My purpose and entice My own to turn from Me, they are only gathering the tares to be bundled and burned. My love continues to be shed abroad and all who are My Father's respond to My love.
It is to them that I send you, My dedicated one, to places you have not seen, and in ways you had not imagined. You are My hands to lift up the branches of the vine fallen in the mud, unable to bear fruit. I send you to lift them up, not cut them off; to walk with them as I clean them, encourage them to reach for Me into the light, and rejoice as the life of the True Vine causes them to flower and they bear much fruit to My glory.

May you give thanks to the Lord in the great assembly and among throngs of people praise Him, for He rescues your life from the ravages of the lions seeking to devour you. Psalm 35

May the Lord be close to you when those who hate you without reason come against you with slander as you live quietly in the land, for He will contend for you and rise to your defense, vindicating you in His righteousness. Psalm 35

May your tongue speak of God's righteousness and His praises all day long, for all who gloat over your distress shall be put to shame and confusion while those who always exalt the Lord will shout for joy and delight in your vindication. Psalm 35

May the respectful awe and reverential obedience to the Lord, which is the beginning of wisdom, prompt you to store up choice food and oil to exercise hospitality, enabling you to restrain your appetites lest you devour all God gives you like a foolish person. Proverbs 21:20
