PSALM 107:20, 29-31 (2026)

PSALM 107:20, 29-31


28 Then they cried to the Lord in anguish; and he rescued them from their distress. 
29 He stilled the storm to a gentle breeze and hushed the billows, to silent waves. 
30 How glad they were! He brought them safe and sound to the port where they were bound. 
31 Let them thank the Lord for his love and wondrous deeds for humans. 32 Let them extol him in the congregation, praise him in the assembly of the people.

---- my own,

My Father, My Abba, sent Me, His Eternal Word, His only beloved Son, into the world, not to condemn it but to redeem it. For He loved the world so much that He gave Me up to death so you could live through the power of My Resurrection. I took on Myself the guilt, the burden of sin, and the punishment of the whole world. I lay down My life for you, so do not be discouraged, afraid, anxious, or sad and fearful about anything. It has pleased My Father, My Father, and yours, to give you all that Adam and Eve lost and so much more. Come to when you are troubled, when you are heartbroken, when grief and sorrow crush you, when sin and the sins of those you love have stolen your joy and your peace. Come and speak to Me heart to heart, for I desire to know all, I desire to console you, show you My mercy and compassion, touch and heal all the broken places in your heart, mind, body, soul, and spirit, and make you and those you love whole again. 
I AM the one who commands the waves and the seas, I AM the one who commands all the storms and upheavals in your life. All I need to say is, 'Hush now, be still,' and all will be serene and tranquil again. So trust in Me, come to Me, cry out to Me, for I hear you, I always hear you. Have confidence in Me and run to Me as a child to its dad, and I will put My arms around you, hold you close to My Heart, and reassure you that you have nothing to be afraid of, for you are Mine and those you love are Mine.  Nothing pleases My Father and the Holy Spirit more than to make you co-heirs with Me in the Kingdom of God. You on your part stay close to the Church I founded and offer to God the Sacrifice of praise and thanksgiving, the one, holy, and perfect sacrifice that is most pleasing to Him and as the prayers of God's new people rises like incense to the highest heavens, He will rain down showers of blessings on you, those you love, and the world. Be of good cheer, ---- mine, for I have conquered the world, and I delight in giving you and yours a share in My victory.

ZEPHANIAH 3:19-20 (2026)

ZEPHANIAH 3:19-20

On that day, I will face your oppressors; 
I will save the lame sheep and bring the lost back into the fold. 
I will give them renown and honor 
in all the lands where humiliation was your lot. 
On that day, I will be good to you; and gather you, 
to make you famous and honorable, 
among all the peoples of the earth, 
when I bring back the captives before your eyes,
— this is the Lord's word.

---- my own,

Once again, as I have so very often in the past, I say to you that I AM the Lord who heals you, provides for you, answers all your prayers, binds all your wounds, restores you, strengthens you, empowers you, and enables you to begin anew. I take you and those you pray for daily, by the hand, and steady you. Should you stumble, I will keep a firm hold on you. Should you fall, I will pick you up. If you are lost, I will come and seek you no matter how far you have wandered in the ways where danger abounds. I came to seek and save the lost. This is My mission, this is why My Abba sent Me into the world. I came for you, and I came for all those you cry out to Me ceaselessly to redeem and save.  And I will. Do not be afraid, ---- mine, nothing pleases My Abba more than to pour out upon each of His children mercy, pardon, and restoration, for this is precisely why He sent Me into the world. I paid the price for the sins of every person, no matter how grievously they sin. Come to Me with a contrite, repentant, humble heart, and though your sins be as scarlet, I will wash them away, and your soul will be white as wool again. Continue to pray, to fast, and to unite and offer to My Abba and yours, all your suffering, so that you may all one day come to that place in My Father's House that was prepared for you even before He laid the foundations of the world. Be of good cheer, for I came not to condemn the world but to redeem it and to reveal to the whole world the love of My Father. It is a love that saves and restores to repentant sinners all that they had lost through sin.
