Day 104
What's not lining up in your life? Are there kinks? Are there cramped places? Are there crooked, thorn-covered paths? Is there rough terrain with potholes and sinkholes? Quicksand? Dust storms? Swamps and muck? Are you having trouble navigating through?
You must find out if these are manifestations of your not being in obedience to Me. How can you know this? There are some pockets of it that you already know about. Are you asking for my grace to be increased in you so that you can completely obey Me? Are you humbled before Me?
There are some pockets of disobedience in you that you are not conscious of. How will you see them? They are darkness. You need more light. I am the light of the world. I can light up everything that is worldly and give you sight. You must step into the light and remain there until your vision has adjusted and you see what I am saying to you. Don't shrink back from my light.
The way of the sluggard is overgrown with thorns [it pricks, lacerates, and entangles him], but the way of the righteous is plain and raised like a highway. -- Proverbs 15:19 [AMP]
In those days John the Baptist came, preaching in the Desert of Judea and saying, "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is near." A voice of one calling: "In the desert prepare the way for the Lord; make straight in the wilderness a highway for our God. Every valley shall be raised up, every mountain and hill made low; the rough ground shall become level, the rugged places a plain. And the glory of the Lord will be revealed, and all mankind together will see it. For the mouth of the Lord has spoken." -- Matthew 3:1-2; Isaiah 40:3-6
To the faithful you show yourself faithful, to the blameless you show yourself blameless, to the pure you show yourself pure, but to the crooked you show yourself shrewd. You save the humble, but your eyes are on the haughty to bring them low. You are my lamp, O Lord; the Lord turns my darkness into light. -- 2 Samuel 22:26-29
But my righteous one will live by faith. And if he shrinks back, I will not be pleased with him. But we are not of those who shrink back and are destroyed, but of those who believe and are saved. -- Hebrews 10:39
