Look for the new doors of opportunities and open entryways that I have prepared for you.  I will go before you and make crooked places straight and rough places smooth. This is a time of advancement and it doesn't come with a spirit of complacency. Move up to the plate--this is your season but you must reach out to attain what is before you. Do not allow yourself to let road blocks along the way to hinder or stop you. Pray and advance, praise and advance, keep the enemy at bay--some of your most significant "spiritual warfare" will be that of advancement and don't allow yourself to get stuck with "Little Foxes" issues.


 


Taking the High Road


 


Take the high road in major and minor confrontations. It's not important to be right but make righteous choices in handling matters. These coming weeks you will see suddenlies and your discernment must be finely tuned. Look to me, your Father in order to weed through that which is important and avoid unnecessary brush fires. Be ready, keep your ears alert to hear My voice clearly and move with quick obedience--what you do now is preparing you for the next steps ahead.


 


Start new disciplines, sharpen yourself spiritually. It is the order of the day for your life. Don't yield to the flesh but establish a strong spiritual beach head. Keep your armor on and stay in a place of readiness. Be active in prayer, sharp in your word, carrying your sword and your shield. Walk in faith; allow key adjustments to take place. No matter what trouble you may see remember keep moving forward, keep advancing. Be reachable and teachable, says the Lord.
