ESTHER 15:9-14, 5:3 (2026)

ESTHER 15:9-14, 5:3

9 “What is it, Esther?” he said. “I am your brother. Take heart. 10 You will not die, because our decree applies only to ordinary people. 11 Come, speak to me.” 12 He raised the golden scepter, touched her neck with it, then embraced her saying, “Speak to me.” 13 Esther spoke: “My lord, I saw you like an angel of God, and I trembled with fear before your majesty. 14 For you are admirable, my Lord, and your appearance is awesome although you are full of kindness.”

3 The king asked, “What is it, queen Esther? Tell me what you wish. Even if it is half of my kingdom, I will give it to you.”

---- my own,

Do not be afraid. Are you not espoused to Me? Am I not the Bridegroom of your soul? Do not fear to approach Me, for I have called you by your name. I know You, your name is carved on the palms of My hands. It was carved by the nails that pinned Me to the Cross for love of you. For you and for your salvation, I emptied Myself and poured My life into you. So once again I say to you, Do not tremble with fear even though your sins are like scarlet. Even though your sins are many, there can never be greater than My love for you.

Come to Me. Approach My throne of mercy with confidence. I AM here, I am waiting for you. I AM longing for you to tell Me everything that troubles you with childlike simplicity and confidence, certain that I will give you all that your heart longs for and so much more. es I AM God, yes, I AM the Son of the Living God, yes, I AM the ruler of the world, the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords, but I AM also the suffering Servant who filled a basin with water and washed the feet of My disciples. And you, too, I number among My followers. Come to Me, tell Me all. My ear is pressed to your lips. I give you My Breath so you may be filled with the life of My Spirit. All I have is gladly share with you. I have made you co-heir with Me to the Kingdom of My Father, so come boldly, speak confidently. for you have the ear of your King and God, who am the yes and the Amen of God, My Father and your Father as well.

EZEKIEL 34:30-31 (2026)

EZEKIEL 34:30-31

They shall know that I, the Lord their God, am with them, 

and that they, the house of Israel, are my people, says the Lord God. 

You are my sheep, the sheep of my pasture, 

and I am your God, says the Lord God.

---- my own,

You know that you are Mine and not just you, but every member of your family. I hear your prayers, and I answer you. I have commanded My angels to stand guard over each of you and to watch over you night and day. I have counted you among My flock. I know you by your name, and I will ensure that each time I call, you and they will hear My voice and answer Me. I will feed you with the finest wheat and fill your mouth with the sweetest honey, and you will have life in its abundance. I will lead you to pasture, I will give you rest when you are weary. Do not be afraid of anything but continue to make all your needs known to Me with prayers of praise and thanksgiving, for I AM God and there is no other. Do not be worried about what the people of the world will do to you, for no hand raised against any of you will prosper. I have spoken, and My Word is true. Come to Me. Rest in Me. Be nourished by My Word. Be filled with My Spirit, and I will be with you always as you journey from this life to the next to remain with Me eternally.

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.

MARK 8:14:17-21 (2026)

MARK 8:14:17-21

17 Aware of this, Jesus asked them, “Why are you talking about the loaves you are short of? Do you not see or understand? Are your minds closed? 18 Have you eyes that don’t see and ears that don’t hear? And do you not remember 19 when I broke the five loaves among five thousand? How many baskets full of leftovers did you collect?” They answered, “Twelve.” 20 “And having distributed seven loaves to the four thousand, how many wicker baskets of leftovers did you collect?” They answered, “Seven.” 21 Then Je sus said to them, “Do you still not understand?”

---- my own,

You know all that I have done for you, and those you love in the past, yet you are no better than the disciples who constantly had to be reprimanded because they forgot the miracles I performed routinely and to which they were witnesses. I had to jog their memory to recall what I had done in feeding the 5000 and the 4000, and the leftovers that they collected in baskets. In the first instance, 12 baskets; in the second, 7, and yet they forgot so easily. Is your mind as dull as theirs? They can be excused, for they had not yet witnessed the whole of My life ending with My ascension into heaven. But you, ---- mine, with the hindsight of over 2000 years, the doctrinal teaching of the Church I founded, as well as your personal experience of Me, are just as dull and hard of understanding as they. This is what breaks My Heart: that you still lack faith, you still allow trials to sadden you, that you still do not pray with childlike faith, bringing all your needs to Me with conviction, absolutely certain that I will give you all you ask for according to the riches of My mercy, goodness, and love. Do not have Me say to you again, 'O you of little faith, do you not yet understand?' Rather let your prayer echo My Mother's and Mine; Hers always was, "I am the handmaid of the Lord, may it be done to me according to Your will." And Mine, "Not as I will, Father, but as you will." Do this, ---- my own, in all circumstances, let this be your attitude always, and you will experience the peace that I have left you, a peace that passes all human understanding, for it is My own peace that I give you. Be not afraid, it pleases My Father who is your Abba as well, to give you and all those you love and pray for every moment of the day, the Kingdom of Heaven. Rejoice and be glad always, for this is My will for you. Do this, and you will be happy in this life and eternally happy in the life to come.

SIRACH 34:16-17 (2026)

SIRACH 34:16-17

16 The eyes of the Lord are on those who love him.

For them he is powerful protection, strong support; 

shelter against scorching wind and the midday sun. 

He is a safeguard against stumbling 

and assurance against a fall. 

17 He lifts up the soul and gives a sparkle to the eyes; 

he gives healing, life and blessing.

---- my own,

As I have said to you so often, and I will say it over and over again anytime you need Me to, when you need reassurance of My love for you and those you love. I AM God, not man, I keep My Word to the thousandth generation. All that I have said I will do. Have you not seen it in the past?  Why worry, why doubt, why pray as if you are a beggar and not My bride and the daughter of the Most High? You are espoused to Me. Come to Me with confidence, boldly full of faith and conviction that all you ask of Me I will surely give. My eyes are always on you. I lean low over you. I not only hear your breathing, but I also breathe My Life and My Spirit in you; if I were to stop, you would die. I AM God, and you were created because you were willed. Not just you, 

---- mine, but all those you love were created in the heart and mind of God eternally for eternal life in the company of the angels and saints, beholding the God of love who created you in love. I desire not the death of the sinner but that all may live in the freedom that belongs to every child of God. You are redeemed, you are saved, you are adopted, you are Mine. Be not afraid, it pleases My heavenly Father to give you and those you love the Kingdom of Heaven. Rejoice and be glad always because I love you.

LUKE 19:9-10 (2026)

LUKE 19:9-10

9 Looking at Zaccheus Jesus said, 

“Salvation has come to this house today, 

for he is also a true son of Abraham. 

10 The Son of Man has come to seek 

and to save the lost.”

---- my own,

No one who repents, who is contrite, who makes reparation and restitution is lost. All who hear My invitation to return to My Father's house, I will forgive. My Sacrifice covers and redeems every soul who comes to Me and cries to Me, Lord, have mercy, I have sinned, and I beg pardon and healing. No sinner who comes to Me will ever be turned away. The truth is that I in fact pursue the lost, the sick, the discouraged, the lonely, the wayward, the persistent sheep who refuse to hear My call and come back to Me. Do not dismiss anyone as being beyond My mercy because no one is. You continue to pray, to fast, and to offer all your trials and suffering to Me. Unite your life to Mine and be faithful to all I ask you, and you will see great and mighty miracles in your own life and the lives of those for whom you are praying. Have faith ---- mine, it pleases My Father to give His children a share in My inheritance.

SIRACH 39:33-35 (2026)

SIRACH 39:33-35

All the works of the Lord are good 

and he will satisfy every need in due time. 

You must not say: This is less good than that, 

for in its time everything will serve a purpose. 

So now, with all your heart and in full voice, 

sing and bless the name of the Lord.

---- my own,

You are praying unceasingly and bringing all your needs before My Father and Me. You implore My Mother as well as you importune many of the saints and your guardian angel to hear your petitions and grant you many favors for your spouse, your children, and all the members of your family. This is good. Some prayers I answer quickly, others I do not, for the time is not right. When that hour of grace arrives for you, and for them, I will give far more than you asked for or expected. Keep this in mind and do not lose hope when you pray and the answer seems long in coming. Keep your gaze unwaveringly on Me through all the difficulties, storms, and trials that assail you and those you love. Keep your eyes on Me, not on the storm, and you will not sink but will walk fearlessly to Me, and I will save and help you always. All that has happened to you and everyone you love from the moment you each of you was conceived was necessary; were it not, I would not have permitted it.

Everything is good, ---- mine, because I have the power to draw good from every situation for those who love Me. I AM God, and I AM good all the time, and I desire only good for those who are called by My Name, those grafted onto Me and are members of My Body. All life flows from Me to you and keeps you alive in My love. Fear nothing for it pleases My Father, it delights Him to pour out every good and perfect gift on each of His children and to give you a share in My inheritance. I died so you may live and live you will eternally in My Father's house. So until now and then let your whole life heart, mind, body, soul, and spirit resonate with praise to Him who loves you, died for you, gave up His life for you and makes His home in you and will one day come for you and present you to His Father as His bride never to be parted from the One who has loved you more than His life. Rejoice and be glad, for you are Mine now and forever.

PSALM 102:29 (2026)

PSALM 102:29

Your servants’ children will dwell secure; 

their posterity will endure without fail.

---- my own,

All that I have said I will do. I AM God, not man, and I always keep My Word from one generation to the next. You, on your part, remain faithful. Pray without ceasing. Pray with faith, hope, and joy, and do so with praise and thanksgiving, certain that I will bless just as I have assured you I will. I will bring your children home. They will return from all the places where they have wandered. I Myself will seek them and find them. I will bind their wounds, and I will bless and heal them, and they will rejoice in Me and thank Me. Never again will they depart from Me. They will acknowledge that I AM their God and that they are Mine. Your heart, too, will rejoice to see the goodness of the Lord while you are yet alive. Be still and know that I AM God and I keep every one of My promises. Have faith, and you will experience the power of God, the goodness of God, the mercy of God, and the favor of the Most High in your own life and in the lives that are dear to you.

PSALM 146:6-9 (2026)

PSALM 146:6-9

6 Maker of heaven and earth, the sea and all they contain. 

The Lord is forever faithful; 

7 he gives justice to the oppressed 

and gives food to the hungry. 

The Lord sets the prisoners free. 

8 The Lord gives sight to the blind; 

the Lord straightens the bent. 

9 The Lord protects the stranger; 

sustains the widow and the orphan.

---- my own,

Do you believe My Word to you today? Believe it! Make all these promises and assure your loved ones, for this is My Word to you today and always. I AM the Lord your God, Maker of all that is seen and unseen. I created you, too, and all those you love and cherish. Each of you is all Mine, and because you are Mine, because I purchased you at the price of My Blood and My Life, because you are My inheritance given to Me by My Father, I have made you children of My Abba as well. No hand raised against any of you will succeed. I have covered you in My Blood. I have given you Life in abundance. I have poured My Holy Spirit on you. You walk in the freedom of the sons and daughters of God. You share in My victory and in My triumph. I have set you free from the oppression of sin. It is I who gives you justice in a world that is unjust. I share with you all that is Mine, which is eternal life with Me . Ask, and you will receive. Seek, and you will find. Knock, and the door will be opened to you. No one who comes to Me goes away without receiving all they asked for and more. Have faith. Trust in My Word and in Me. I have called you by name, you are Mine now and forever. Rejoice and be glad for it pleases My Father to give you a share in My Kingdom.

EZEKIEL 34:27-31 (2026)

EZEKIEL 34:27-31

27 The trees of the field shall yield their fruit, and the earth shall yield its increase. They shall be secure on their soil; and they shall know that I am the Lord, when I break the bars of their yoke, and save them from the hands of those who enslaved them. 28 They shall no more be plunder for the nations, nor shall the animals of the land devour them; they shall live in safety, and no one shall make them afraid. 29 I will provide for them a splendid vegetation so that they shall no more be consumed with hunger in the land, and no longer suffer the insults of the nations. 30 They shall know that I, the Lord their God, am with them, and that they, the house of Israel, are my people, says the Lord God. 31 You are my sheep, the sheep of my pasture[a] and I am your God, says the Lord God.

---- my own,

Pay close attention to all that I say to you this morning. Engrave My promises on your heart, mind, and spirit. Do not go about with a long face, disconsolate because you act like you are both a widow and an orphan. This is not true, and you know it. From all your experiences in the past, you know that I love you, I AM the Bridegroom of your soul, I Am espoused to you. There has never been a single sorrow, no matter how great, that I have not ultimately revealed to you was necessary so I could draw from it a greater joy, an everlasting joy. So today, this morning, listen to My words of consolation, of healing, of restoration, of provision, of new beginnings, and of assurances that are eternal, not just for you but for everyone you pray for so earnestly all your waking hours. Be still and know that I AM God and that not a word spoken from My lips will ever return to My Father without accomplishing all that I desire it to. Continue to pray, but do so with complete confidence that all you ask of Me in prayer with tears and supplications entrusting to Me all your joys, hopes, sorrows, fears, regrets, and failures, I will transform into gladness and joy They will return, ---- mine, they will return with great joy and I will restore them to My flock, and I will lead them to pasture, and I will feed them and quench their thirst and never again will they depart from Me. Believe and rejoice.

BARUCH 5:1-7 (2026)

BARUCH 5:1-7

1 Jerusalem, put off your garment of mourning and unhappiness, put on the splendor and glory of God forever. 2 Wrap yourself in the mantle of holiness that comes from God, put on your head the crown of glory of the Eternal One. 3 For God will show your splendor to every being under heaven. 4 He will call your name forever, “peace in justice” and “glory in the fear of the Lord.” 5 Rise up, Jerusalem, stand on the heights. Look towards the east and see your children gathered together from the setting of the sun to its rising, by the voice of the Holy One, rejoicing because God has remembered them. 6 They left you on foot, taken away by the enemy. God will lead them back, carried gloriously like royal princes. 7 For God has resolved to bring low every high mountain and the everlasting hills, to fill up the valleys and level out the ground, in order that Israel may walk in safety under the glory of God.

---- my own,

The time is coming when your mourning will turn to dancing, your sorrow to joy, and your tears will be tears of gladness, for I have heard your prayers and I will bless you and all those you love and those you plead for before Me ceaselessly. The time is coming, the hour is almost near when I will bring them home. They departed from Me and wandered in the wilderness, but I will find them, bandage their wounds,  carry them home, heal them, and restore them to My flock. I will be their Shepherd, and they will be My sheep. I will call them by their name, and they will hear and answer Me. Do not be troubled, do not be anxious, do not be afraid. All that you ask for is all that I desire to give, and I desire to give so much more than you can ever ask for or think of. I AM God, and I desire that all those who are Mine shall prosper, living holy lives pleasing to My Father. Pray with confidence. Pray boldly. Ask in faith for all that you need. Make all your needs known to Me, and I will give all you ask for according to My endless and incomparable riches and glory, and you will be awestruck by the goodness and generosity of My love. Have faith. Do not doubt that all you ask for in faith will be given to you.

ISAIAH 43:5-7, 18-19 (2026)

ISAIAH 43:3-7, 18-19

3 For I am your savior, I, the Lord, your God, the Holy One of Israel. I give Egypt for your ransom, Ethiopia and Seba in exchange for you. 4 Since you are precious in my sight, and important—for I have loved you, I give people in exchange for you and nations in return for your life. 5 Fear not, for I am with you: I will bring your children from the east and gather you from the west. 6 I will say to the north, “Give them up!” and to the south, “Do not hold them!” Bring back my sons from afar, my daughters from the ends of the earth, 7 all those called by my name all I have created for my glory.
18 But do not dwell on the past, or remember the things of old. 19 Look, I am doing a new thing: now it springs forth. Do you not see? I am opening up a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.

---- my own,

These are My promises and My assurances to you today. Take heart. Lift up your head. Dry your tears. Cease your sighing. All that I have said I will do, I WILL DO. I AM God and not man, I always keep My promises. I have called each of you by My Name. I have anointed and consecrated you. I have grafted you to My Body. All those who have strayed far away I will seek, and I will carry them home. Be not afraid for the salvation of those you pray for without ceasing. I have heard your prayers. I will seek and save. Pray with faith, hope, and trust that I, who have said, 'Trust in God, trust also in Me,' have said so because I desire you to place all your trust in Me and My Word. Have I ever made a promise to you and failed to keep it? In all your experiences of Me have I failed to do just what I said I would? Be not afraid, ---- mine, but watch out for how I AM going to surprise and delight you as I show favor upon favor to you and those you love. Your heart will rejoice and exult, and you will sing endless praises to Me, to My Father and the Holy Spirit. Give thanks now, praise now, even before you see the blessings bestowed on you and your loved ones, for I have given you My Word and My Word is true.

LUKE 4:38-39 (2026)

LUKE 4:38-39

38 Leaving the synagogue, Jesus went to the house of Simon. 

His mother-in-law was suffering from high fever, 

and they asked him to do something for her. 

39 Bending over her, he rebuked the fever, 

and it left her. Immediately, she got up and waited on them.

---- my own,

Come to Me. Tell Me all that is troubling you, just as I was approached to do something for Peter's sick mother-in-law. Bring all your troubles, sorrows, disappointments, regrets, weaknesses, failures, including all that makes you joyful. Tell Me everything. I delight in being your confidante. I love having you share everything that happens to you throughout the day with Me. This is why I desire you to walk in My Presence, be aware that I AM watching over you and nothing happens to you without Me being aware of it, permitting it if it is for your good, or preventing it if it will cause you harm. I AM always bending over you just as I bent over her. I stoop low over you always lovingly, tenderly, with great compassion. God delights in you, — mine. Know this and take joy in this knowledge. I created you for joy and for intimacy with Me. Come to Me, rest in Me, confide in Me, and remain in Me, and I will remain in you. Be still and know that I AM God and that I will never leave you, never forsake you. I have declared before heaven and earth that you are Mine and not a hair of your head shall be harmed. Trust Me, and you will walk through life in perfect serenity. Rest in Me and let My Holy Spirit lead you, guide you, and you must be attentive to Him. Do all that He inspires you to do, and you will live in joy and peace despite every trial and difficult circumstance that you will experience until I call you home to Myself to remain with Me eternally.

PROVERBS 9:5-6 (2026)

PROVERBS 9:5-6

“Come, eat and drink of the bread and wine I have prepared. 

Give up your foolishness and you will live; 

take the straight path of discernment.”

---- my own,

Every morning for so the whole of your life, ever since you first received Me in the Holy Eucharist, I have invited you to come to the table and share the Banquet of Love that I prepare for you. You have responded to My invitation, and morning after morning you come to Me and partake of the Banquet of Love, which is My own Flesh under the appearance of mere bread and My own Blood in the appearance of wine. You eat and are filled with spiritual nourishment and strength for the journey that will take you from this life to the next. At every Holy Communion, I fill you with every grace and blessing that you need to help you as you sojourn in this valley of tears. You have troubles, you have sorrow, and you are anxious about many things. The health of your spouse, the troubles of your children, and these weigh your spirit down, and you lose awareness of My Presence in you and all My gifts and My promises to you. This is why your spirit is sad, and joy escapes you, and peace is far from you. How foolish you are, ---- mine, peace is My gift to you as it is to all who follow Me closely and are grafted onto Me. Peace I leave you, My own peace do I give you not as the world gives it, which is not peace at all, for it is like the morning mist in the sun that disappears at the first sign of testing. My peace is an abiding peace. It is a peace that remains unwavering and unshakeable, no matter what storms rise up to rob you of it. The waves may be high, the winds may scream and toss you about, but nothing will shake you or disturb you, for you know with conviction that nothing can shake that I AM in the eye of the storm with you, and My Peace, which is in you, enables you to sail serenely and joyfully through the stormiest seas. Contemplate often this truth: My peace is with you; it abides in you. Do not let anyone or anything rob you of this peace, which is My gift to you.

MARK 16:6-7 (2026)

MARK 16:6-7

6 But he said to them, 

“Do not be alarmed; you are looking for Jesus of Nazareth, 

who was crucified. He has been raised; he is not here. 

Look, there is the place they laid him. 

But go, tell his disciples and Peter 

that he is going ahead of you to Galilee; 

there you will see him, just as he told you.”

---- my own,

This is what heaven and I say to you constantly. Do not be alarmed, do not be anxious, do not be afraid, do not allow anything or anyone to steal your peace. I AM GOD, and I AM with you always till the end of time. The tomb is empty. Do not seek the living among the dead. I AM alive, and I AM with you. All that I have I now share with you. I share My Kingdom, My glory, My victory, My triumph over sin, the flesh, the world, and the devil. You do not fight these alone. I fight alongside you, and you will always win because I fight for you. Do not look for Me in places where you will not find Me. I AM alive, I have risen. You will find Me if you walk the way that I walked. You will be saved if you embrace the Truth that I personify, and you will live with Me, in Me, and through Me, because I AM Life. So do not seek the living among the dead. I live, and you too will live if you remain in Me and My Word remains with you. 

MARK 10:49-52 (2026)

MARK 10:49-52

49 Jesus stopped and said, “Call him.” So they called the blind man, saying, “Take heart! Get up, he is calling you!” 50 He immediately threw aside his cloak, jumped up and went to Jesus. 51 Then Jesus asked him, “What do you want me to do for you?” The blind man said, “Master, let me see again!” 52 And Jesus said to him, “Go your way, your faith has made you well.” And, immediately, he could see, and he followed Jesus along the road.

---- my own,

In your blindness, in your groping, even though it appears to you that all hope is lost and you think Me far away from the sound of your voice, you believe Me to be unreachable and unmoved by the sorrow and the overwhelming anxiety that is crushing you. Nothing can be further away from the truth. Pay close attention to what I say to you today because all that I said to Bartimaeus then, I say to all who approach Me with faith. He placed himself on the road to Jericho, knowing I was to pass that way. He recognized that he had nothing; all he had was hope in Me and faith that I would do for him what I had done for so many others. He did not doubt. He heard Me approaching and the crowd coming nearer. He raised his voice and cried out persistently, hoping his cry would somehow rise over the clamor of the crowd and reach My ears. He did not allow doubt to douse his faith and hope. Instead, the louder the crowd tried to shush him, the louder he cried out to Me, and lo, I heard him. I stopped. The crowd halted, and Bartimaeus heard Me saying, 'Call him.' He did not need a second invitation. The crowd confirmed that I was calling him, leaving his cloak behind, his only necessary but meagre possession, he jumped up and ran to Me. I saw him as no one had seen him thus far, and I asked him, 'What do you want Me to do for you?' He replied from the very depths of his anguished soul,  “Master, let me see again!”  Immediately, I restored his sight, and he rejoiced with exultant praise and followed Me. To follow Me, ---- mine, means that you must pick up your cross daily, joyfully, and stay close to Me, for where I AM is life, hope, joy, and peace.

TOBIT 7:17

17 “Have courage, my child, 

the God of heaven and earth will change your sorrow into joy. 

Have confidence, my daughter!”

---- my own,

Take to heart the promise I make to you this day. Write it on your heart. Embed it in your spirit. I AM God, I AM the eternal Word of the Living God, and I always keep My promises. Take heed to what I AM saying to you today, it is what I have been saying to you for a while, and yet you have allowed gloom, doom, and sadness to cast a weary pall over your soul and your spirit. You have lost your joy andyour peace because you refuse to take Me at My Word. Have confidence! Have courage! Have faith! I AM the Lord your God who has called you from darkness into My own marvelous light. I have declared you to be Mine. I have carved your name on the palm of My Hand. I have rescued you from the snares of the enemy. I have set your feet on solid ground. I hear all your prayers. I have heard your sighs, I have collected your tears. I desire what you desire as well. Justice and peace for your children and their salvation. Continue to pray, but do so with joy and peace, with faith and confidence, with the certainty that God, your Abba, who loves you, will give you all that your heart desires, and you will rejoice with Me as a young bride rejoices in her bridegroom.

PSALM 144:11-12 (2026)

PSALM 144:11-12

Rescue me from the evil sword and from the hands of foreigners, whose mouths speak falsehood, whose words are full of deceit. 

May our sons be like plants well-nurtured and full grown; and our daughters, like pillars that adorn the corners of the temple.

---- my own,

Trust Me! When you pray, pray with faith. Perservere in prayer. Do not give up even though you have been praying for the same intentions - the conversion of your children, for years, and nothing seems to be happening. Nothing changes. This is what the evil one is whispering into your ear. I hear you. I always hear you. At a time of My choosing, I will answer, and you will praise and glorify Me. Have faith! It pleases My Father that you do not give up asking. Keep knocking, keep seeking, keep asking, and your prayers will all be answered. I desire what you ask for your children even more than you do. I want them to be saved and to come to the knowledge of truth, and they will. Be patient. I AM at work for good in all things. While you wait for an answer, be joyful. Let praise and thanksgiving fill your heart in advance for the wonderful things that I AM about to do. Above all, you must not become despondent when your prayers are not answered in the time and manner that you desire. I AM God, and I know all, I see all. I know when and how to give you all that your heart desires. You stay faithful, stay hopeful, and remain always in My love.

PSALM 38:10 (2026)

PSALM 38:10

All my longing, O Lord, is known to you; 

my sighing is not hidden from you.

---- my own,

Yes, I hear every sigh. I feel the heaviness of your heart. Everything that has been happening to those you love weighs heavily on you, and you feel oppressed. Joy seems to have fled, and you believe that the light from your life has vanished. You plead with Me to come to you, to touch you, and to let you feel My Presence. I know all. I see all. So this is what I want to say to you this morning. Have I not answered your prayers in the past? Have I not brought healing to those you love? Have I not sent My angels to console and help those you love in their sorrow and sadness? Have I been distant and unapproachable to those nearest, dearest, and closest to you, including t yourself? What is it that you want from Me, apart from Me being wholly present in the storm, in every difficulty, in every disappointment? Do you not know by now that it is in the cross alone that those who are called by My Name are purified, strengthened, made holy, and formed in My image and likeness? Only in the crucible of suffering, in the fiery furnace, can the dross and impurities in your heart be burned away, purifying your soul. You know that there is no other way to the Kingdom of God except through Golgotha.

Kiss and embrace every cross that is laid on you, for without the cross you will never understand the miracle of love that was wrought on it for you and for those you love. In the cross alone will you find meaning and purpose. In the cross alone you must make your boast, for in embracing the cross you embrace the work of salvation that saved the world. In your own personal Golgotha in union with Mine, you will ultimately experience the joy of My Resurrection. Share My passion with Me, and you will share in My Resurrection. Have faith! Persevere! I AM with you, and My Sacred Heart has triumphed, for I have won the victory for you and the world. Have faith, have hope, for love has conquered all.
