When Martin Luther was dealing with The Black Death plague, he wrote these wise words that can help inform the way we approach things happening in our world right now...

“I shall ask God mercifully to protect us. Then I shall fumigate, help purify the air, administer medicine and take it. I shall avoid places and persons where my presence is not needed in order not to become contaminated and thus perchance inflict and pollute others and so cause their death as a result of my negligence. If God should wish to take me, he will surely find me and I have done what he has expected of me and so I am not responsible for either my own death or the death of others. If my neighbor needs me however I shall not avoid place or person but will go freely as stated above. See this is such a God-fearing faith because it is neither brash nor foolhardy and does not tempt God."

Luther's Works Volume 43 pg 132 the letter "Whether one may flee from a Deadly Plague" written to Rev. Dr. John Hess

What The Lord Is Saying Today

July 10, 2017.

Job well done. Take some time to enjoy your victory and include some time to praise Me. Take your time. Let Me know how grateful you are about what we did together. Don't jump into something else too quickly. There is another direction for you to go. There are other things I have for you. You will need to be rested to take them on. Rest is good, you will need restoration of your mind and body.

2 Corinthians 2:14 (NLT) "But thank God! He has made us his captives and continues to lead us along in Christ's triumphal procession. Now he uses us to spread the knowledge of Christ everywhere, like a sweet perfume." Bev Robinson

SMALL STRAWS IN A SOFT WIND by MARSHA BURNS:

Your recent experiences were a departure from your normal routine and expectations, which made it more difficult than ever to stay on track spiritually. You will need to make a deliberate effort to get connected with Me again, says the Lord. Be one with Me, and I will give you keener insights into what I have in store for you.

John 16:13

"However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth; for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak; and He will tell you things to come."

God's Word For Today

I am moving you up into a higher realm. You will be able to see more clearly from My perspective. Events will not be as close up as they have been. You will see more from My point of view. There are two things that have already happened, causing you to suspect a change. You don't know exactly what they mean, just that they mean something. You have been being established. Now you will see more clearly.

Proverbs 15:24 (MSG)

"Life ascends to the heights for the thoughtful- it's a clean about-face from descent into hell." Bev Robinson

SMALL STRAWS IN A SOFT WIND by MARSHA BURNS:

Some of you will receive a "blast from the past" as a reminder of things left undone. This is a time when you can take care of unfinished business. Put aside your emotions and let Me lead you by My Spirit, says the Lord. I will take you to unexpected places both spiritually and naturally that will be a catalyst to putting the past behind you. Trust Me!

Colossians 3:17

"And whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him."
