Son, people of integrity will follow My instructions and not compromise with evil. They ponder the direction of their life, and only walk on My path. They are just and fair to all, and do what is right and good. They know I am coming soon, and that I am watching them.
Lord, You made me; now give me the sense to follow Your commands. Open my eyes to the wonderful truths in Your word. Help me to understand the meaning of Your word so that I am encouraged. Keep me from lying to myself; by giving me an eagerness for Your word in place of an eagerness for money. Turn my eyes from worthless things, and give me life through Your word. Then I can walk in freedom. With all my heart I want Your blessings! My eyes are straining to see Your promises come true.
Son, come to Me with your ears wide open and listen. Seek and call on Me, for I am near. Remember, just as the heavens are higher than the earth, My ways are higher than your ways and My thoughts higher than your thoughts. When I send My word out it always produces fruit. It will accomplish all I want it to, and My word will prosper everywhere I send it. I will bless you when you choose to do what My word says, to live your life by My word. I do not waver between yes and no; I always do what I said. I have placed My Holy Spirit in your heart as the first installment that guarantees everything I have promised you.
Lord, I know that the more I suffer for You, the more You will shower me with Your comfort. Sometimes I feel overwhelmed beyond my ability to endure, and think it will never end. Looking back on these times I realized that I learned to stop relying on myself and learned to rely only on You. My suffering was good for me, for it taught me to pay attention to Your word. Oh, that my actions would consistently reflect Your word! I am trying to hide Your word in my heart so that I will not sin against You. Now use me to spread the knowledge of You everywhere.
