April 16: The strength and power of the internal work that you have done will be revealed by your thoughts, actions, and the words of your mouth. There are areas in your life where self-control is still an issue. Victory can only be achieved as you yield to the work of My Spirit, says the Lord. 2 Corinthians 3:8 But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord.April 16, 2023: The strength and power of the internal work that you have done will be revealed by your thoughts, actions, and the words of your mouth.

April 17: Refuse to be overwhelmed by the challenges you face. When you get rattled, you must take an even strain, quiet your soul, and settle down. Ask for wisdom and without a doubt you will receive it. Do not allow fear to overcome your senses. Remember that you are strong and courageous. You are an overcomer. Ephesians 6:10-11 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

bluidkiti · 04-18-2023, 06:58 AM

April 18: Today is the day to tackle the tasks that you have not wanted to do. They will not go away; they will nag you until you get them done. You may not feel like you are ready to face that which is before you, but you are. You have not been given more than you can effectively handle. Rise up in strength and confidence, and take the next step. Philippians 4:13 I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.

April 19: You are always transitioning from the past to the future, and that may seem daunting at times, but it is life. You are well able to face the unknown as long as you stay spiritually connected. Set yourself in a position of faith that I always lead, guide, direct and protect you as long as you maintain a position of sweet communion with Me, says the Lord. Matthew 7:24-27 Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock: and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock. But everyone who hears these sayings of Mine, and does not do them, will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand: and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it fell. And great was its fall.

April 20: Worry does not change anything except your own health. Release your concerns to Me in prayer, and know that I hear and answer your prayer of faith according to My will and purposes, says the Lord. Quiet your mind and emotions and let me lead you out of this valley of fear and dread. Strengthen yourself in the truth of My Word. Psalm 23:4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.

bluidkiti · 04-21-2023, 07:34 AM

April 21: You can get overwhelmed when you look too far ahead of where you are. That is when you start to worry and give way to conjecture. Refuse to allow theory without proof to become part of your decision making process. Take each moment as it comes, and allow Me to direct your steps and give you the wisdom you need as your progress, says the Lord. Matthew 6:34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.

bluidkiti · 04-22-2023, 08:47 AM

April 22: When you are reminded of the past and all of the offences and indignities, it is for the purpose of forgiveness. You must sincerely forgive every person of every outrage if you want to be forgiven for what you have done. You are in a season of new beginnings, so begin with a clean slate and nothing within you that can keep you from being the best version of yourself you can be. Psalm 51:10-12 Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me. Do not cast me away from Your presence, and do not take Your Holy Spirit from me. Restore to me the joy of Your salvation, and uphold me by Your generous Spirit.

bluidkiti · 04-23-2023, 08:23 AM

April 23: Come into My presence with clean hands and a pure heart, and I will show you the way and give you the means to progress. Refuse to allow the work of the enemy against you to get you down. I will lift you up in strength and lead you in truth, says the Lord. Psalm 25:2-3 To You, O Lord, I lift up my soul. O my God, I trust in You; let me not be ashamed; let not my enemies triumph over me. Indeed, let no one who waits on You be ashamed; let those be ashamed who deal treacherously without cause.

bluidkiti · 04-24-2023, 08:17 AM

April 24: I am your place of refuge where you can find peace and safety. Come to Me and find rest for your soul. There is nothing too big for Me to handle, so you must stand strong in faith and trust that I am with you to guide you through even the most difficult of circumstances. Psalm 18:2-3 The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold. I will call upon the Lord, who is worthy to be praised; so shall I be saved from my enemies.

bluidkiti · 04-25-2023, 08:00 AM

April 25: Pay particular attention to the details of what you have been given to do. It is good to be able to see the big picture, but the details are what will trip you up if you are not careful. This is a time when being meticulous will pay off in the long run. Be methodical in your approach to your work, and pray for wisdom in the process. James 1:5 If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him.

bluidkiti · 04-26-2023, 06:51 AM

April 26: Regardless of what is going on in your life externally, do your best to settle your soul, and come into rest. Circumstances change and there will always be challenges to face, but you can find peace in My presence, says the Lord. I am always the same; I never change. I am your shelter from the storm and your safe haven. Psalm 4:8 I will both lie down in peace, and sleep; for You alone, O Lord, make me dwell in safety.

bluidkiti · 04-27-2023, 06:32 AM

April 27: I, the Lord, am making a way for you to get the help you have desired and needed. But, you must not refuse the support when it comes, even when it is from an unlikely source. This will be a key moment in your life that can bring constructive change or not . The outcome depends on your acceptance of the assistance provided. Psalm 72:12-13 For He will deliver the needy when he cries, the poor also, and him who has no helper. He will spare the poor and needy, and will save the souls of the needy.

bluidkiti · 04-28-2023, 07:37 AM

April 28: Transition is not always smooth; there will be things that you do not comprehend and obstacles that you have to navigate. But, there is no going back. You have made great progress regardless of the difficulties you faced. Gather your strength to continue on by the strength of hope and grace. 1 Corinthians 15:10 But by the grace of God I am what I am, and His grace toward me was not in vain; but I labored more abundantly than they all, yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.

bluidkiti · 04-29-2023, 08:05 AM

April 29: When you begin to worry about what lies ahead, remember that all of your fretting only leads to anxiety. Redirect your thoughts to be grateful that you serve and loving God, who will guide you through every dilemma. You are not alone or without help. All you have to do is take each step of progression as it comes and believe. Matthew 6:25 Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature?

April 30: You are entering a new realm of experience that is unfamiliar and will sometimes be difficult, but know that I am with you in every detail. Set your face like flint to achieve your purpose without wavering. There is much for you to learn that will aid in your spiritual growth and awareness. Isaiah 50:7 For the Lord God will help Me; therefore I will not be disgraced; therefore I have set My face like a flint, and I know that I will not be ashamed.
