NEHEMIAH 9:11-12, 15 (2025)

NEHEMIAH 9:11-12, 15

You divided the sea before our ancestors 

who passed through the midst of the sea 

without their feet getting wet. 

You cast their pursuers into the depths of the sea, 

as stones fall into the deep waters. 

You guided them by day with a pillar of cloud, 

and by night with a pillar of fire, 

to light for them the way they should follow. 

You gave them bread from heaven 

and told them to satisfy their hunger. 

You made water gush forth from the rock 

to quench their thirst; 

and commanded them to go and take possession 

of the land which you had sworn to give them.

---- mine,

You want to know all about God's faithfulness, ponder these words and all the Sacred Texts all throughout salvation history, and you will see for yourself how the mighty hand of God is always with His people. You are the new people of God. Your house is the House of God that stands invincible and glorious on Mount Zion; it is the New Jerusalem that comes down from God. It is the City of God where your God dwells in fullness, in beauty, in truth. You have no cause for worry, anxiety, or fear. The God of the Old Testament, who worked mighty signs and wonders for the Israelites and walked with them in the wilderness for 40 years, is the same God who abides in you, lives and breathes in you through Me and through My Holy Spirit. How can you live as if you are powerless, friendless, an orphan, and a widow when God Himself has declared that you are His in time and in eternity? I AM with you always. I feed you with My own flesh and blood. I quench your thirst with Living Water that flows from My open side. ----, my own, you belong to Me, we are bound as one. I have made a Covenant with you in My Blood. You have a home in My Sacred Heart. Why are you tormented, why are you cast down, don't you know by now that the Triune God is on your side and is fighting for you just as I did in the past for the Israelites? I AM the pillar of fire of God's love that goes before you, and I AM the Cloud of God's Presence that covers you. Day or night, it matters not, I AM always with you. Be still and be aware always that I AM God and I AM with you always, and the inheritance I have sworn to give you is the Kingdom of Heaven.

ISAIAH 41:10,13, 14B (2025)

ISAIAH 41:10,13, 14A, B

Fear not, for I am with you; 

be not dismayed, for I am your God. 

I will give you strength, I will bring you help, 

I will uphold you with the right hand of my justice. 

For I, the Lord, your God, 

take hold of your right hand and say to you: 

“Fear not, I am your assistance.” 

Fear not, I am your redeemer, 

says the Lord, the Holy One of Israel, your helper.

---- mine,

Be not afraid. Fear nothing but sin, which will separate you from Me eternally. Fear nothing, for the evil one uses fear to fill your mind with doubt and anxiety. Fear makes you weak and disturbs the peace that I give you. I have assured you time and time again that all your prayers have been heard and answered. Nothing delights Me more than to fill your mouth with the finest wheat and the sweetest honey. It is I who strengthens you. My Word will fill you with courage, and all that I have done for you in the past assures you that I AM the Lord, your God, and nothing is too difficult for Me. Do not allow the world to distract you. Do not permit the circumstances of your life to cause you to falter and stumble. Remember that I have taken hold of your right hand, I hold you fast. You are safe, and your loved ones are safe. Be still and know that I AM God and that by the power of My Name I save. You call Me your Spouse, and the Beloved of your soul, and so I AM. I love you. I have declared you to be Mine, and no one and nothing can or will snatch what belongs to Me, what is Mine, from Me.
