GO ON NOW
Today's reading:  Genesis 44-47

"I am God, the voice said, the God of your father.  Do not be afraid to go down to Egypt, for I will see to it that you become a great nation there."  Genesis 46:3 NLT

God was speaking to Jacob about moving his family to Egypt, but I believe He's also talking to me about my day ahead...

Do not be afraid.  Go ahead and head off into the world.  It's a tough place.  It's a dark place.  It's a hard place to live when you're a foreigner, but I am there with you.

Do not be afraid.  Go ahead and mention My name in your conversations today.  Some folks need to be set straight as to where you stand.  Some people you'll come in contact with need to know you're a believer and can get hold of Me on their behalf.

Do not be afraid.  Go ahead and write that tithe check for a little more than usual.

Do not be afraid.  Go ahead and say what I tell you.  No more, no less!

Do not be afraid.  Go ahead and trust me for the big stuff--and the little things.

Do not be afraid.  Go ahead and type up what I speak to your heart.  Hit the 'send' button.  Publish it to be used My way in the place I determine.

I'm not going to Egypt today, but where I am going I'll need Him as much as Jacob did.  Maybe, no probably, you will, too.
