LOOK UP AND EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED

Look up, I say, look up! See and step into a new level, into a new standard of living. Do only what you see in My Word and say only what you hear Me say. I did only what I saw My Father do and I said only what My Father said.  I kept My eyes on My Father and looked up.  That is where all your blessings are, so look up.

Look up and fear not. Do not be concerned about tomorrow. Reverence Me and imitate that which you know in your heart to be the truth. I have surely empowered you to know right from wrong and to live in righteousness and holiness. It’s time to move in a new direction, closer than ever to My heart. Come with a willful and purposed determination, refusing the lies of the enemy, and embracing the truth.

Look up, I say, and make new daily decrees about your position in Me. You are not defined by what the world says about you, nor are you defined by what the past has said about you or what you’ve done. You look at your failings in the past, but I look at things differently. What looks to you as your biggest failure, I took as a stepping stone for you to higher ground. I see it as something that motivates you to get closer to Me and to become more dependent on Me!

It’s a new day filled with My new mercies. You are defined by that which My Word has always said about you. Indeed, you are the apple of My eye. You are holy and acceptable in My sight. You have been loved since before all creation came into being, and I have always been at your side.

Look up and see Me smiling at you, every morning, every afternoon, every evening. Look up, I say. Look up, and step into a new level. Step into a new standard of living, doing only what you read in My Word and saying only what you hear Me say. Look up I say, Look up!  A brighter day awaits you.  Shake off the garments of heaviness and adorn yourself in the garments of praise and look up.

 Read and Meditate on His Word:

My voice You shall hear in the morning, O LORD; In the morning I will direct it to You,
And I will look up. Psalms 5:3

Mine eyes are ever toward the LORD; for he shall pluck my feet out of the net. Psa. 25:15 

You will also declare a thing, And it will be established for you; So light will shine on your ways. Job 22:28

Therefore, do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble. Mat. 6:34

I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. My help cometh from the LORD, which made heaven and earth. Psa. 121:1-2 

Through the LORD’s mercies, we are not consumed, Because His compassions fail not. They are new every morning; Great is Your faithfulness. Lam. 3:22-23

To give them beauty for ashes, The oil of joy for mourning, The garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; Isaiah 61:3
