Psalm 34:8 Happy are those who take refuge in [the Lord].

2 Corinthians 12:9 Each time He said, “My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness.” So now I am glad to boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ can work through me.

May God give you a mind that understands, eyes that see, and ears that hear, as He makes daily provision for you and cares for you in the small details of your life, so that you might know that He is the Lord your God. Deuteronomy 29

May you carefully follow the ways of the Lord and walk humbly as the Lord directs you so that you may prosper in everything you do, for each day you stand in the presence of the Lord your God Who desires to be your God and for you to be His own. Deuteronomy 29

May you always keep watch on your heart, daily letting the truth of the Word of God shine its light into your motives and the pure water of the Spirit of God wash the dust of the world from your daily walk so that your heart will stay true to God, not turning away to the distractions of the world, the appetites of the flesh, or the bitter roots of the enemy's poison. Deuteronomy 29

May you not persist in going your own way, thinking you will be safe in God's blessing, for the Lord will never be willing to forgive you, and His wrath and zeal will burn against you. Deuteronomy 29

May you follow all the words of the Lord, for the secret things belong to the Lord your God, but things revealed belong to you forever. Deuteronomy 29

May you take God's Word to heart and turn to the Lord your God and obey Him with all your heart and with all your soul according to everything you are commanded, for then the Lord your God will restore your fortunes and have compassion on you and gather you again from the powers and principalities that rule you, even if you have ended up in the most distant place possible from the Lord. Deuteronomy 30

May you desire the Lord and hunger for more of Him, desperate to know Him and anxious to obey Him, for then the Lord your God will circumcise your heart so that you may love Him with all that is within you, and live in obedience, prospering in all you do and blessed in all you have, as the Lord delights in you. Deuteronomy 30

May you love the Lord your God and walk in His ways and keep His commands, decrees and laws so that you will live and increase and the Lord your God will bless you in the land of your soul you are learning to possess. What you are commanded is not too difficult for you or beyond your reach, neither up in heaven nor beyond the sea, but the word is very near you, in your very mouth and in your heart so that you may obey it. Deuteronomy 30

May you choose life rather than death, so that you may live, and that you may love the Lord your God, listen to His voice and hold fast to Him, for the Lord is your life and He will give you many years in the land He swore to give you. Deuteronomy 30

My child, I am the key to understanding the Scriptures, for I am the Living Word. I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. Come unto Me. 

Seek after Me. I am hidden from the world, for they are blinded by the powers of spiritual wickedness and distracted by their own lusts. 

However, I am hidden for you, out of sight but within reach. Just stretch out your hands unto Me as I direct your heart, and you will find Me. 

I am close, My dear one; draw near to Me, for then I will draw near to you and be found of you.

May you not neglect the weightier things of God, His justice and His love, as you practice the smaller details of your walk with Him. Luke 11

May you speak in the dark what needs to be heard in the light, and may you whisper in the inner rooms what must be proclaimed from the rooftops, for there is nothing concealed that will not be disclosed, or hidden that will not be made known, and what you practice in private will prepare you to perform in public. Luke 12

May you fear Him Who, after the killing of the body has power to throw you into hell, yet know and understand, in reverence, that the very hairs of your head are all numbered, for you are worth much to God. Luke 12

May you believe in God and trust in His deliverance, rather than willfully put God to the test by demanding the things you desire as the Israelites did in the wilderness. Though He gave them His cloudy pillar for direction and shade, the column of fire for warmth and light, pulling water from the flinty rocks of the desert and raining the bread of angels made from the grain of heaven each day, they were a stubborn and rebellious generation whose hearts were not loyal to God and whose spirits were not faithful to the Lord. Psalm 78
