October 1: In a vision I saw a fork in the road where a traveler would have to choose which way to go, and the Lord said: You are coming to an intersection in life where you must choose the direction that your life will take. The choices will be clear, and you will be able to distinguish between the two. One path will draw you closer to Me, and the other path will take you further down the road of worldliness and self-interest. Choose wisely. 1 Corinthians 6:19 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?

October 2: When you feel overwhelmed, do not take yourself too seriously. Get quiet and examine the situations that make you feel threatened, and be reminded that this is momentary. It is your emotional response to being uncertain of the outcome. This is a time to be strong in faith and trust that I, the Lord, am with you to bring you through. You are in My hands. 2 Corinthians 4:16-18 Therefore we do not lose heart. Even though our outward man is perishing, yet the inward man is being renewed day by day. For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, is working for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory, while we do not look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporary, but the things which are not seen are eternal.

October 3: There is so much uncertainty and negativity in the world around you that it sometimes seems beyond your ability to cope. Take time and put forth the effort to see the positive and to be reminded that you are standing on the solid rock of Jesus Christ. Establish yourself in the certainty of the power of the Holy Spirit to protect you. Psalm 18:2 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.

October 4: Rise up out of the dung heap of self-pity, and put your trust in Me, says the Lord. I am able to do what you cannot. But, you must pledge your allegiance to Me instead of allowing the enemy of your soul to drag you through the mud. Set your will to be strong and resolute. Ephesians 6:10-12 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. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.

October 5: You are entering a new chapter in your life. You know your story so far, but it is time to embrace the future as it unfolds before you. Set your heart and mind to live each day with the grace and strength that I provide, says the Lord. I am your fortress, your high tower, and your place of refuge. Psalm 18:2 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.

October 6: When you are going through difficult times, do not stop. Keep pressing on until you find the peace that surpasses all understanding. It might not be easy, but you will look back on these days as being a time of enlightenment and spiritual growth. Stay the course. Philippians 4:6-7 Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

October 7: There are situations that require clarity. You will have to quiet your soul so that you can receive My instruction, says the lord. Panic will only lead to confusion. Stay calm in order to hear My voice and move forward with assurance that you are following My leading. You just need to settle down. Isaiah 30:15a This is what the Sovereign Lord, the Holy One of Israel, says: Only in returning to me and resting in me will you be saved. In quietness and confidence is your strength.

October 8: In a vision I saw a man navigating a minefield. Every step was calculated and deliberate as he searched the landscape for even the slightest or most subtle signs of danger. His senses were heightened so that nothing would escape his attention. I watched this man as he followed an invisible path through difficult terrain, and I heard the Lord say: Even though you are making your way through what seems to be ominous circumstances, I am with you to direct every step and bring you through to victory. Do not be afraid. Proverbs 3:6 In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths.

October 9: Release yourself from your past along with all regrets, embarrassment, and disgust. You can do nothing to change what was, but you can make a difference today by doing your best to be righteous and steadfast. You are no longer that person. You have a clean slate and a new future ahead of you. Be glad and rejoice, says the Lord. 2 Corinthians 5:15-17 He died for everyone so that those who receive his new life will no longer live for themselves. Instead, they will live for Christ, who died and was raised for them. So we have stopped evaluating others from a human point of view. At one time we thought of Christ merely from a human point of view. How differently we know him now! This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun!

October 10: Look to the horizon; there is a new day dawning. It is a day that gives you the opportunity to choose how you respond. It will either be positive or negative. You can either rise to new heights or plunge to lower depths. You can allow Me to be part of your day or not, says the Lord. Choose wisely. Romans 6:16 Do you not realize that you become the slave of whatever you choose to obey? You can be a slave to sin, which leads to death, or you can choose to obey God, which leads to righteous living.

bluidkiti · 10-11-2023, 07:36 AM

October 11: You will have the opportunity to simplify your life and circumstances. However, it will not be immediate. It will be one step at a time and one thing at a time as you move into the next phase of your existence. Be alert and stay present with Me, says the Lord, as I direct your steps. Isaiah 52:12 But you will not leave in haste or go in flight; for the Lord will go before you, the God of Israel will be your rear guard.

bluidkiti · 10-12-2023, 07:47 AM

October 12: Resist the temptation to be frustrated because of things that are out of your control. Take a deep breath and relax. Be patient and trust that everything will work out without you having to worry. I am with you and for you, says the Lord, and I will bring you through even the most difficult of circumstances. 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; for the Lord upholds him with His hand.

bluidkiti · 10-13-2023, 06:54 AM

October 13: This is a time to evaluate where you are in life and what you do. Change is just around the corner, and you would do well to make the necessary adjustments as you progress. I have already imparted the wisdom you need for the transition to be smooth, says the Lord. Put your priorities in order. Isaiah 58:8 Then your salvation will come like the dawn, and your wounds will quickly heal. Your godliness will lead you forward, and the glory of the Lord will protect you from behind.

bluidkiti · 10-14-2023, 06:06 AM

October 14: Do not worry about what has been or might be. There are enough issues today to deal with. Stay focused and walk in the Spirit so that your spiritual connection is sure. Live each moment as it comes with your faith intact. I will never leave you nor forsake you, says the Lord. Deuteronomy 31:8 Do not be afraid or discouraged, for the Lord will personally go ahead of you. He will be with you; he will neither fail you nor abandon you.

October 15: You are living in perilous times, and you often think that the peril is outside, in the world and in external circumstances. However, the most peril is found in the condition of your will to go on or not. Remember that discouragement destroys faith. Hebrews 10:36 For you have need of endurance, so that after you have done the will of God, you may receive the promise.
