May you be pleasing to the Lord, blameless and upright, fearing God and shunning evil. Job 1
May you develop a regular custom of devotional time and seeking God for yourself and for others. Job 1
When you are in the midst of troubles and sorrow, may you not sin by charging God with wrongdoing, but remain steadfast in your knowledge of His goodness and cling to Him as your unchanging Rock, maintaining your integrity before Him. Job 1
May the expression of malice from the enemy of your soul render all the more precious to you the gift of love and life from the Savior of your soul as He comforts you in your troubles, for in order to obtain your redemption, Jesus suffered far more from the enemy than we can understand. Job 1
When you are surrounded by the ashes of your circumstances with only broken pieces of your dreams remaining, sad of mind, heavy of heart, sick of body, may your faith remain unshaken and your words reflect the truth of heaven. Job 2
May you know and accept the truth that you are blessed beyond deserving, granted grace in abundance, and surrounded by mercy past measuring, all of which does away with any factual basis for complaints, much less boasting. Job 2
May the effect of circumstances, the washing of the Word, and the work of the Spirit in breaking, cleansing, and refining your heart and mind, release you from the bonds of fear and the constraints of carnality, polishing and purifying the eternal treasure of the glory of God which He has placed in you that you may stand unencumbered in the fire and shine brightest when the affliction is the greatest. Job 2
May the bitterness of hard thoughts and shaken confidence, the inward suffering which is more difficult than the sharpest physical affliction, not overcome or overwhelm the sweet sense of the love and presence of God in your heart and mind. Job 3
My child, hear My voice. Turn your heart and incline the ear of your spirit to Me so that you may catch the word of life which I have for you.
There are many voices speaking to you on many levels, My dear one, but they speak many things and are not in agreement with each other. Just as at My trial before the high priest, there were many willing to speak against Me, but they could not come in agreement with each other, with each one speaking their own lie and delusion.
I speak to you, My love, in many ways, and they each bear witness to the other. Some are easier to discern than others, and some require spiritual growth and maturity to learn to recognize and focus on. But My Word will always agree with My Spirit, and bring glory to My name.
Do not judge the message by the messenger, My precious one, for I will also send you at times to bear My message, and you will be evaluated as you have evaluated others.
Do not despise the message another conveys if it differs from yours in style or presentation, My caring one. Remember, they are bringing that message because you are not.
I have many sheep in many places with many needs. Some are young, some are infirm, some have special needs, but all are treasured. I have given you the message needed by the ones I send you to, but I also have servants who are willing to take a different message needed by others who will never hear the words I have given you. Encourage one another as fellow-laborers in My work, pray for one another, and walk in love toward each other
May you relentlessly pursue the way of love and be emulous of spiritual giftings, desiring earnestly that you may speak clear edification, strong encouragement, persistent strengthening, and deep comfort to others from God’s heart. 1 Corinthians 14
May you be reassured, when the wicked plot against you by preparing their weapons and readying their intrigues to attack you, that the Lord will laugh and have them in derision, knowing their day is coming when they will be taken and destroyed by their own artifices. Psalm 37
May you be content with the small portion of this world’s goods that the righteous have, and not desire or envy the wealth amassed by the wicked, for the power by which they gather it shall be broken, but the Lord will uphold the godly. Psalm 37
May you be confident that the days of the blameless are known to the Lord, and their inheritance will endure forever; therefore in times of disaster you will not wither and in days of famine you will enjoy plenty. Psalm 37
May your ways delight the Lord, for He will make your steps firm; though you stumble, you will not fall, for the Lord upholds you with His hand Psalm 37
May you know that the righteous are never forsaken by the Lord, nor are their children ever forced to beg bread; rather, they are always generous and lend freely and their children will be blessed. Psalm 37
May you shun evil and do good, for then you will dwell in the land forever, since the Lord loves the just and will not forsake His faithful ones, who will be protected forever while the offspring of the wicked will be cut off. Psalm 37
