September 1: You can make your plans for the days ahead, but you must hold them loosely with an open hand because you do not know exactly what the future holds for you. Focus instead on maintaining honest and unfailing relationship with Me, says the Lord. And, trust that I will reveal all that you need to know when it is time. Do your best with where you are and what you know about today. Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.

September 2: I am releasing a new wave of creativity for those who possess a sensitivity to nuance. Some of you have put away your gifting because you did not deem it to be worthy or worthwhile. Now is the time to pick it up again and use your creativity as a form of worship instead of a form of personal satisfaction, says the Lord. Ephesians 2:10 For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.

September 3: Take a moment to reflect on how your life changed in the last season, and realize that you not only survived; you are beginning to thrive. You are in a better position to take the next step in fulfilling your destiny. You have had supernatural help in what you have accomplished. Be glad and rejoice. Psalm 77:14 You are the God who does wonders; You have declared Your strength among the peoples.

September 4: Last evening I looked out our west window to behold a stunningly beautiful sunset that lit up the bottom of the clouds like rows of glowing coals. I hurried to get my iPad to take a picture and in those few moments the colors had already begun to fade. And, I believe this was a sign that when a golden opportunity arises, we must not take it for granted or tarry. Get it while the getting is good. Ecclesiastes 9:11 I returned and saw under the sun that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, nor bread to the wise, nor riches to men of understanding, nor favor to men of skill; but time and chance happen to them all.

September 5: Set your heart, mind and determination to treat everyone with the same respect that you desire for yourself. Be sure to reflect My character and nature in everything you do, says the Lord. Release yourself from prejudice and judging others from your place of strength to their position of weakness. Proverbs 16:18-19 Pride goes before destruction and a haughty spirit before a fall. Better to be of a humble spirit with the lowly, than to divide the spoil with the proud.

bluidkiti · 09-06-2023, 08:32 AM

September 6: You cannot advance spiritually or naturally when you continue to feel sorry for yourself. It is like being stuck in the mud. Rise up and set new obtainable goals. Even if you have to take small steps, every step will strengthen your resolve to extricate yourself from this dark place. Psalm 37:23-24: The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord, and He delights in his way. Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down.

bluidkiti · 09-07-2023, 06:38 AM

September 7: Allow Me to lead you in the way you should go, and do not allow divisions to come between you and others because of race, creed, color, physical appearance, politics, or religious affiliation. Rather live and walk in the Spirit and let your love flow for everyone. Superiority and hatred have no place in My kingdom, says the Lord. Acts 10:34-35 Then Peter opened his mouth and said: In truth I perceive that God shows no partiality. But in every nation whoever fears Him and works righteousness is accepted by Him.

bluidkiti · 09-08-2023, 07:10 AM

September 8: Establish yourself in unwavering faith so that you can transcend your flesh and carnal nature. It is through righteousness and by the power of My Spirit that you overcome the works of darkness. You must walk in the light to get free and stay free, says the Lord. Romans 8:5-6 For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit. For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.

bluidkiti · 09-09-2023, 06:39 AM

September 9: When you are feeling lost and discombobulated, stop and take the time to get reoriented. Take inventory of who you are, what you are doing, where you are going and see that your relationships with others are clear of criticism, judgment or misunderstandings. Let your love shine with a pure heart. 1 Timothy 1:5-6 Now the purpose of the commandment is love from a pure heart, from a good conscience, and from sincere faith, from which some, having strayed, have turned aside to idle talk.

bluidkiti · 09-10-2023, 08:38 AM

September 10: I heard in my spirit the phrase patient continuance. And the Lord said: Stay on course. Do not deviate from your purpose in My kingdom. Distractions will come that would cause you to lose focus and drift, but you must remain steadfast and immovable. Deliberately choose to be loyal and faithful to Me. 1 Corinthians 15:58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.

bluidkiti · 09-11-2023, 07:05 AM

September 11: When you feel as though you do not belong you must remember that you belong to Me, says the Lord. You belong in My eternal kingdom. You are not an outcast where it really counts. You are precious in My sight and loved beyond your ability to imagine. Rise above all thoughts of being unloved or not cared for; you are Mine and I am yours. 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 Or do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own? For you were bought at a price; therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God's.

bluidkiti · 09-12-2023, 07:16 AM

September 12: When you reflect back on your life, do not just remember the challenges, difficulties and failures; remember the times of overcoming, being triumphant, and succeeding. Your life has not been just one or the other. You have had highs and lows. The high points have given you courage, and the low points have brought instruction and correction. Be thankful in all things. 1 Thessalonians 5:16-19 Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. Do not quench the Spirit.

bluidkiti · 09-13-2023, 08:03 AM

September 13: Do not waste your time worrying about what the future holds and what you would have to do to accommodate what is coming. You have today and this moment. You can make your plans, but be sure to hold them loosely because it is certain that what lies ahead of you will not be what you envisioned. The best you can do is trust Me, says the Lord, to lead, guide, direct and protect you. Matthew 6:34 Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.”

bluidkiti · 09-14-2023, 07:25 AM

September 14: Rise up and receive all that I have for you, says the Lord. I have a plan and a future for you, so do not despair when you find yourself in difficult circumstances. You have the ability to overcome and become all that I have called and chosen you to be. Be done with the mundane and arise to your spiritual position. Psalm 104:31 May the glory of the Lord endure forever; may the Lord rejoice in His works.

September 15: Choose peace. Be at peace with yourself and others, and make this day one of tranquility instead of turmoil. Come into My rest and allow Me to establish you in quiet contemplation as you reflect on all things good and noble. Seek sanctuary in My presence and be refreshed, renewed and restored, says the Lord. Psalm 107:28-30 Then they cry out to the Lord in their trouble, and He brings them out of their distresses. He calms the storm, so that its waves are still. Then they are glad because they are quiet; so He guides them to their desired haven.
