Those who are wise will shine as bright as the sky, and those who lead many to righteousness will shine like the stars forever.
But at that time every one of your people whose name is written in the book will be rescued.
Many will be purified, cleansed, and refined by these trials. But the wicked will continue in their wickedness, and none of them will understand. Only those who are wise will know what it means.
Because my house lies in ruins, says the Lord of Heaven’s Armies, while all of you are busy building your own fine houses.
Lord God my Father,
Quiet my thoughts so I can hear you. Give me obedience without my thoughts holding me back. Help me to be restored to your plan and away from my limits. Give me courage and strength to live your will alone.
In Jesus name I pray,
Amen
