Genesis 19:28 NLT “But God had listened to Abraham’s request and kept Lot safe, removing him from the disaster that engulfed the cities on the plain.
 
Many people say to Me “Lord, tell me what You want me to do and I will do it. Your Will be done.” And I want to thank you for this and also let you know a bit more about how the Kingdom works.
 
First, there is My Will, which is absolute, and it will happen. If one person doesn’t do what they need to do to fulfill My Will, I will do it through another.
 
Then, there are all the other things…that we get to do together. Things that do not change the course of eternity. As you read in Ecclesiastes, there are many things that “do not matter” (Ecclesiastes 1:14) or “have already been done” (Ecclesiastes 1:9) or do not have eternal impact. These are the areas we get to simply do work together, enjoy each other’s presence and they do not impact eternity specifically because of what you have done (Ecclesiastes 5:19-20). Instead, what is happening is you are becoming more (or less) like Me, mad in My image, based on the choices you make.
 
This is the “playing field” and it develops your character and leads you to operate in the fruits of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22-23) if you welcome the Holy Spirit into your life. As you see here in today’s verse, Abraham made a request that had a long-lasting impact, and I honored it. If I had not honored the request, it would mean that his will contradicted My Will and then I would do My Will.
 
As you live your life, I am happy to honor your requests or if you really prefer to simply do what I know best, that is fine too. The important thing is that we do this life together and we get to begin to live eternity at this very moment because we are walking in the garden in the cool of the day together (Genesis 3:8)

​Matthew 9:21 NLT “…for she thought,” If I can just touch His robe, I will be healed.”
 
Do you believe you will be healed?
 
Or do you pray and ask for healing, hoping I will “prove Myself” and heal?
 
When Jesus called someone to the front of the synagogue with a withered hand, fully intending to show His power and authority so that people would believe in who He is..do you think He thought – “I wonder if God will back Me up and heal this man’s arm?” (Mark 3:1-5)
 
No!
 
He created a high intensity situation so that He could show Himself to the world.
 
If you don’t see miraculous healings, is it because you do not believe and then your half faith attempts at healing confirm that I don’t heal? Is it possible that you attempt to heal for the wrong reasons?
 
 The whole reason why Jesus healed was to back up His claim that He is the Son of God, the Savior, the One whom I sent. Without miracles and healing why would anyone believe Him?
 
They wouldn’t!
 
Do you want miracles and healing for the sake of miracles and healings, or do you want them so that people (yourself and the recipient) will know that I am God and I love them, and they should turn their lives around and follow Jesus?
 
Know what you are truly asking for before praying for a miracle and check your heart to determine your true “goal”.
 
Do you want people to know Me and
 
“[Praise] God for giving humans such authority.” Matthew 9:8 NLT
 
Or…do you want them to feel personally and intensely that I love them:
 
John 3:16 NLT “For this is how God loved the world; He gave His One and only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish but have eternal life.”
 
Or…do you want to experience healings and miracles so you will experience Me personally and intensely and experience first-hand the power and authority Jesus died and was resurrected for so He could give it to you?
 
Or…are you trying to prove yourself, justify your value or hope that there is something special about you…looking for approval?
 
If the last one is true I have already approved of you, you are immensely valuable to Me – Jesus died for you and this proves your value! The first 2 reasons are the post powerful. The third is a natural result.
 
Seek Me and My Kingdom first (Matthew 6:33).
 
Of course, I love that you are praying for healing and miracles and may just do the healing anyway even if it is for the wrong reason so…keep trying! Just check in with Me and continue on your own path of healing as you explore!

Ecclesiastes 2:17 NLT “So I came to hate life because everything done here under the sun is so troubling. Everything is meaningless—like chasing the wind.”
 
Please don’t be discouraged by this verse. If you understand how it fits into everything it makes more sense.
 
The whole of what is learned by Ecclesiastes is this…
 
This world is temporary. Eternal life is forever, so live now and enjoy yourself but don’t expect it to satisfy that incredible desire for heaven, perfection, and all eternity that lives within you. It never will.
 
This is why I gave you this commandment…
 
Exodus 20:4 NLT “You must not make for yourself an idol of any kind or an image of anything in the heavens or on the earth or in the sea.”
 
I know, fully, that nothing on his earth will ever satisfy that deep need you feel each day, pulling you toward peace, satisfaction and fulfillment. This can only come from Me and the perfection of living with Me in the Garden, which will be restored at the proper time.
 
It is good for you to hate anything that lies to you telling you it will satisfy you including:

• Work
• A spouse
• A family
• Possessions
• Success
• Financial freedom
• Beauty
• Weight

 
Yes, I want you to enjoy all of these things.
 
Ecclesiastes 5:18-20 NLT says “Even so, I have noticed one thing, at least, that is good. It is good for people to eat, drink, and enjoy their work under the sun during the short life God has given them, and to accept their lot in life.  And it is a good thing to receive wealth from God and the good health to enjoy it. To enjoy your work and accept your lot in life—this is indeed a gift from God. God keeps such people so busy enjoying life that they take no time to brood over the past.”
All these things are good, and you are welcome to seek them out, but they will not satisfy you! Only I will satisfy you and you will only be fully and truly satisfied when all is restores…but you will experience some of it here on earth and so enjoy that and don’t be distracted by the deceitfulness of wealth (mark 4:19). Instead, know that I am fully satisfying and give you all you need (Matthew 6:33) and do as the teacher shares with you as his final conclusion:
 
Ecclesiastes 12:13 NLT “Fear God and obey His commands for this is everyone’s duty.”
 
I don’t tell you this because I need to be feared and obeyed but because I know that when you do this you will find your greatest satisfaction and experience ethe fruits of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22-23)

Mark 3:19 NLT “Judas Iscariot (who later betrayed Him)”
 
As she writes this, of course Sherri is wondering if she heard Me wrong for today’s verse (and you may be also…). This is when Jesus is choosing the disciples, and this verse again shows a lot about My character.
 
You might ask…why would I have selected Judas as one of the disciples when I knew it would put him in the very position necessary for him to betray Jesus. It’s a good question…
 
Some think the answer is a predestination which would mean the betrayal was inevitable so he had to be on the team of disciples so that his “destiny” could be reveals.
 
Others say that I knew Jesus needed to be betrayed and that Judas would do it so I put him in the team of 12 disciples, but neither of these are correct.
 
The truth is that I do anything and everything possible to bring My children home to Me. I have them born at the time they are born. I put them in families, neighborhoods, countries, so that they, specifically, will be set up for the greatest likelihood of meeting Me and knowing Me. This was true for Judas also. I knew his heart, his makeup, the way he thought, even his need for control and ability to figure out the “best” way to achieve his goals. He had very specific ideas of what My Kingdom would look like and how it would come about but he could never have foreseen what actually would happen unless…he read the scriptures diligently and studied them and was very close to Jesus to see, hear, and discern how I planned to bring My Kingdom to earth. I put him on the 12-disciple team because that was the path of greatest probability of him actually understanding My plan so he could also be saved.
 
Remember, there were plenty of people who wanted Jesus killed. I didn’t need Judas to betray Him in order for the Scriptures to be fulfilled. My desire was for him to know Jesus intimately and lay down his views on how to achieve My plans which involved traditional views on power and money as the primary influencers so that he could see and experience My supernatural power and resources.
 
Please, don’t make this same mistake. I have shown many of you My plans for your life or this world, but if you try to accomplish these plans your own way or traditional ways it will go badly. A better way is to draw near to Me, submit control and belief of what you think I am doing, and let Me lead the way. I have put you in this place, time, and location for specific reasons!

​Psalm 19:2 NLT “Day after day they continue to speak; night after night they make Him known.”
 
This verse talks of the heavens proclaiming My glory, but I have a question for you…
 
Do you realize that when you allow yourself to be who I created…when you don’t try to change yourself or be someone else…when you allow yourself to “shine” like the stars or “move through the sky” like the planets or constellations, do you realize that you, also, speak of Me and make Me known?
 
Sometimes it is through your words.
 
Other times it is simply by being who you are…a “slice” of Me, made in My image. The stars don’t even know how beautiful they are. They don’t even know that people study them and watch their movement through the sky…they simply “be” in the place in the heavens where I place them and move where it is natural for them to move.
 
When you “be” who you are and when you naturally flow in the daily pattern of life you declare My glory and make Me known.
 
You are made in My image.
 
You look like Me.
 
How can others, all those people and loved ones you so deeply want to know Me…all those strangers on the street you wis you could reach for Me…how can the not see Me when they look at you. You are a walking and talking miracle – an image of God.
 
All you have to do is let yourself shine and don’t hide the very things about you that are different or unique. This is what I mean by:
 
Matthew 5:14-16 ESV “You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do people light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.”
 
Many read this to mean they need to go out and do good works so that they will give Me glory, but I say…you are a good work – made in M y image. Allow yourself to share! If you are hiding under a basket, take it off and be like the stars in the heavens, doing what they naturally do…and it will bring Me great glory!
 
Believe Me! This is true!

Habakuk 3:17 Message “Though the cherry trees don’t blossom and the strawberries don’t ripen, though the apples are worm eaten and the wheat fields stunted, though the sheep pens are sheepless and the cattle barns empty, I’m singing joyful praise to God. I’m turning cartwheels of joy to my Savior God. Counting on God’s rule to prevail, I take heart and gain strength. I run like a deer. I feel like I’m king of the mountain.”

I know what you need. I really do. And sometimes I show you that you actually need Me more than anything else. You have to admit that I have provided very generously for very many people. Look at the nations in the world. Affluence exceeds poverty and yet people doubt Me because of the few who are truly struggling. I know it seems like a lot of people, but you have to look at the details and the stories behind the struggling also to get a real picture of what is going on. Talking in generalities simply does not work in this case.
 
Why, oh why, do people look to what is not rather than to what is? It is like choosing to look into a dark hole instead of a beautiful landscape or a lush and vibrant forest or the skies at night filled with stars.
 
It is a choice what you look at…lack or abundance.
 
I am not asking you to ignore anything.
 
But I am asking you to focus on what is good (Philippians 4:8) and, just as Habakuk relayed to you, find significant joy and thanksgiving no matter what circumstances exist.
 
Circumstances come and go.
I bring good out of everything.
Your experience of life will be much more enjoyable if you find joy in Me no matter what…if you praise Me in all circumstances and if you recognize you are a king in the Kingdom of God.
 
Try that on for size!
 
Thank Me in the midst of your deepest problems and find My joy…My joy is your strength (Nehemiah 8:10) that gets you through. Of course you don’t like the circumstances!
 
Praise Me and see what happens.

Psalm 109:2 NLT “…while the wicked slander me and tell lies about me.”
 
These daily messages are pointing out that there are a lot of verses in the Bible that are important to Me that are not the uplifting “print on a shirt or mug” verses.
 
When people come to Me they often believe their lives will get easier and will turn out just right and be so much better. They / you are right. Your life will be so much better, but it will not be easier. You will find more opposition and the wicked will actively attempt to slander you, and you will discover people make assumptions about you that are often lies, simply because you dedicate your life to Me.
 
The more you are dedicated to Me, the more satan will come against you, your family and your friends because you are now a threat to him but this does not need to concern you at all and you can keep taking steps toward Me in confidence, knowing that I am more powerful than satan, which was clearly shown when he opposed Jesus and was defeated.
 
If you accept the challenge, knowing this journey with Me will be the best thing you have ever done and the hardest – it will be so much easier.
 
If the journey is easy and doesn’t require you to “exercise” the fruits of the Spirit like patience, love, joy, and kindness – then you probably aren’t a threat to the enemy. Of course, every day doesn’t have to feel like a desert, a valley of the shadow of death (Psalm 23:4) or like being behind enemy lines but expecting those times in your life will make it easier to deal with them because they won’t surprise you or catch you off guard.
 
How can you prepare yourself?
 
The armor of God is powerful protection (Ephesians 6)
 
Seek My guidance in every aspect of your life (1 Thessalonians 5:17)
 
Communion and “ingesting” Jesus into your life.
 
Expect miracles and “coincidences” and look for them.
 
Simply know you are in a battle and behave accordingly. Be watchful. Be prepared. Don’t be blindsided by challenges and difficulties. Instead pray and know that prayer is powerful and always causes change.
