PSALM 94:14-22 (2026)

PSALM 94:14-22

For the Lord will not forsake his people;
he will not abandon his heritage;
15 for justice will return to the righteous,
and all the upright in heart will follow it.
16 Who rises up for me against the wicked?
Who stands up for me against evildoers?
17 If the Lord had not been my help,
my soul would soon have lived in the land of silence.
18 When I thought, “My foot is slipping,”
your steadfast love, O Lord, held me up.

19 When the cares of my heart are many,
your consolations cheer my soul.
20 Can wicked rulers be allied with you,
those who contrive mischief by statute?
21 They band together against the life of the righteous, and condemn the innocent to death.
22 But the Lord has become my stronghold,
and my God the rock of my refuge.
23 He will repay them for their iniquity
and wipe them out for their wickedness;
the Lord our God will wipe them out.


---- my own,

Never for an instant think that I, who am God, ever take My gaze off you. You are always in My sight and in My Presence. I know and am aware of every breath you take, were I not you would die. I love you with a love that is not just everlasting, but is greater than anything you can ever comprehend in this life. You get some idea of the height, depth, breadth, and width of my love when you look at the Cross on which I took your place. Never doubt my love for you or for those you love. For I love them far more than you ever could. Every soul fashioned by God has an eternal and glorious destiny which is eternal life with My Father and I and the Holy Spirit together with all the angels and saints. This world is the valley of tears on which you must now walk with the cup of suffering always at your lips. Do not brush it aside. I  prayed to My Father to take away the Cup during my own agony, not once but three times, yet I knew that if He answered my prayers, each one of you would have been lost forever. Love made it impossible for My Father to answer My prayer, and love made it possible to conquer My fear. I gladly embraced the Cross when I said to Him, 'Yet, not as I will but as you will.' And this must be your attitude to suffering as well. The cross is the sure means to heaven. Ask for help, ask for grace, ask for courage, and remember that I AM yoked to you. I carry your cross with you, and I AM with you every step of the way. Have faith, ---- my own, the enemy's days are short, and the Cross is triumphant. Victory belongs to the children of God, the same victory that I won for every son and daughter of the Most High God. You are adopted by Him because you are grafted to Me. Be of good cheer, I have conquered the world.

ISAIAH 25:4a,b,c, 8-9 (2026)

ISAIAH 25:4a,b,c, 8-9

4 For you have been a refuge to the
poor, a haven to the needy in time
of distress, a harbor in the storm, a
shade from the heat.

8 and death will be no more. The Lord
God will wipe away the tears from
all cheeks and eyes; he will take away
the humiliation of his people all over
the world: for the Lord has spoken.

9 On that day you will say: This is
our God. We have waited for him to
save us, let us be glad and rejoice in
his salvation. 

---- my own,

I AM your refuge, your hope, and your strength. Take courage, I AM with you always. Do not be anxious about anything, do not give way to sadness, rather reflect on how I have saved you in the past, how I have rescued you and those you love from grave situations, and how you have praised and thanked Me and given Me all the glory. Continue to do so as you see My Hand at work. You cannot see it all right now, but I am revealing what I am doing one step at a time. I give you enough light to walk in faith and confidence. That's all you need, light enough for the next step, confident that with your hand securely in Mine, you do not need anything more.  I have wiped away your tears in the past, and I will continue to do so. Remember in this life you will have trials and tribulations these are necessary to perfect you, purify you, and to increase your faith and your hope in Me and ultimately to allow faith, hope, and love to grow in you so you will be so deeply rooted in each of these virtues that nothing can shake your confidence in Me, the God of Love, who laid down My life to save you and the world. The day is coming, ---- mine, when you will recognize, as you have done so often in the past, that it was by My mighty hand and holy arm that I worked and rescued each one of you. It will be the same this time as well, and always. I AM God, and I save. Believe, and your heart will rejoice and be glad.
