Whatever you are going through, I want to encourage you to take the time to ask God for His word on your situation.
What does this mean?
God has a word to get you through every challenge that comes your way. I recently testified that the Lord kept telling me not to fear because He has protected me. At the time, I had no idea why the Lord repeatedly told me this through various scriptures. However, the day came when my kids and I were involved in an active shooter situation at a mall. Knowing God's word kept me strengthened and in faith.
In 2023, the Lord instructed me to inform this group that everyone needed to sit by the well of living water. In that message, I noted that being at the well means we are well-positioned to draw and drink the living water that is Jesus Christ. This requires that we are already in right relationship with Jesus so that when life's challenges appear, we are already well-positioned to lean on Him for the solutions. That message further stated, "If, however, our walk with the Lord is lax, then when the problems arrive, we start scrambling to get right with God and His Son, Jesus Christ. We start listening to the devil's lie that 'it's been so long since you took the Lord seriously so He won't take you seriously.'"
Positioning ourselves at the well will also enable us to receive a revelation, holy rhema, or an on-time word from God. He may give us a Bible verse that we can hold on to. It could be a lyric from a worship song. It could be a solitary word that guides us as we face down every challenge. It could even be an image or series of images conveyed through a dream.
You want God's word on whatever you are going through. You want God's word NOW. And to get it, you must give Him what He wants. Pray, praise Him, and study the Bible knowing that it contains mysteries that only the Lord can unlock. Doing these things positions you at the well of living water.
I don't know what you're going through or how long it has been going on. But, don't you think it is time to discover what God says about the issue? Don't you think it is worth investing the time to seek God's face and receive His word? If you sincerely ask and wait to hear, God will surely reveal what you need to know. He has promised in Joel 2:32 that everyone who calls on Him will be saved. Across the scriptures, He covenanted to answer those who cry out to Him as long as they are not wicked. Today is the day to take Him up on His offer and prayerfully ask Him to give you the understanding you need about whatever challenge you are experiencing.
And once you get what you prayed for, you need to hold onto it as a shield against everything the devil flings your way. It builds your faith and can be used to "extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one" (Ephesians 6:16). That word becomes the sword you use to destroy every seed of fear the devil attempts to plant in your heart (Ephesians 6:17). Cling onto this gift and wield it always to resist the devil and stand as God's blessed child. Brother and sister in Christ, it is time to get yourself a revelation from God.
Join us at Noon EST when we'll take steps to position ourselves at the well to receive the blessings of the Lord. Then we will pray for His revelation on the issues we're facing.

If you didn't read the main message or have forgotten what it was about, please read what our sister @Jesus Is Real shared with us all today:
Let us seek God for a word over whatever issue we need insight on. It could be how to speak to someone at the office. Or, how to discipline one of your children. The matter could be big, such as a health problem or a financial challenge that is giving you sleepless nights. Nothing is too big or small to put at God's feet.
We've made our way to the well and taken our seats through our worship and prayers of intercession, now it is time to cry out to the God of compassion for His word. A word that will reassure us and guide us forward. Please make sure you are aware of what issue you want a word on before you pray.
God of compassion, thank You for Your loving mercy and kindness. Thank You for never forsaking us. We use this opportunity to raise the issues we are contending with. Lord, please step into the issue. Please give each of us a revelation about the situation. Your word says that we are to call on You and You will answer, telling us the unsearchable things (Jeremiah 33:3). We do this right now, and trust in You, our faithful Lord, to grant our petitions, IJMN, Amen.
ETA: Listen. Quiet your environment to hear what God says. Or, as you study the Bible this week, be expectant for what God has to say. You might hear Him speak to you as you pray or praise. Write what He said down. Search the Bible for what you've heard and give Him thanks.
