“Walking in the Tracks of the One Who Has Gone Before Us” – 03-17-24
Psalms 17:1 Hear the right (my righteous cause), O Lord; listen to my shrill, piercing cry! Give ear to my prayer, that comes from unfeigned and guileless lips. 2 Let my sentence of vindication come from You! May Your eyes behold the things that are just and upright. 3 You have proved my heart; You have visited me in the night; You have tried me and find nothing [no evil purpose in me]; I have purposed that my mouth shall not transgress. 4 Concerning the works of men, by the word of Your lips I have avoided the ways of the violent (the paths of the destroyer). 5 My steps have held closely to Your paths [to the tracks of the One Who has gone on before]; my feet have not slipped. 8 Keep and guard me as the pupil of Your eye; hide me in the shadow of Your wings 9 From the wicked who despoil and oppress me, my deadly adversaries who surround me. 15 As for me, I will continue beholding Your face in righteousness (rightness, justice, and right standing with You); I shall be fully satisfied, when I awake [to find myself] beholding Your form [and having sweet communion with You].
TPT: Psalms 17:3-5 For in a visitation of the night you inspected my heart and refined my soul in fire until nothing vile was found in me. I will not sin with my words. Following your word has kept me from wrong. Your ways have molded my footsteps, keeping me from going down the paths of the violent. My steps follow in the tracks of your chariot wheels, always staying in their path, never straying from your way. 15 As for me, because I am innocent, I will see your face until I see you for who you really are. I will be satisfied in an awakening of your likeness in me!

After I got home from the meeting, I felt the Father calling me from Heaven and I went and laid down. Jacob my angel came to bring me to the Father. I stood before Him in His Study and there was such a radiance that I could barely see Him, but I could see His hands.
He said, “I have something for you Sue. It is time to show you your footprints. When I called you and I chose you to be born into the earth for My purposes, I wrote everything about your earthly role into your scroll. I also kept a record of your birth here in heaven with Me, before I ever sent you, for I chose you from the very beginning. Each one of my children are sent just like you. I have kept their footprints too. All of My Children are watched over by Me. Your lives are Mine. Just as earthly parents do special things to remember the moments of a childs’ birth, such as taking finger prints, foot prints, and photos. I also keep you in My remembrance here in Heaven. I am a good Father. Come closer, I want to show you something I have kept of your life.”
The Father reached for something beside Him, and I saw that He brought forth a small beautiful wooden box. He held it out to me, and I saw Him open it. Inside were two small footprints impressed in a mold! He had stamped my two feet, which represents my walk, as His own, before I was ever sent!
The Father then said, “You belong to Me, and I have watched over your life, and I have guided your steps as you have sought Me throughout your life. As I am showing you this, I want My people to know that they also have a Father that watches over them, and that hears their cries, and I also answer them when they seek Me in prayer. I keep each of you in My Treasure box close to Me. Every one of My Children are ever before Me and they are My Treasures.”
“Just as you spoke of in your message last night, I have set your feet in My molds, even from the beginning, and I want to remind all of you that today- that you can still walk in them, for your path is laid out in My plans. Just keep following Me. Trust in Me. Depend on Me. I’m a good Father, Sue, and I will always watch over you in My care. Stay true to what I have given you to do, keep your hearts clear and allow My love to continue to flow through your life to others. You will see My feet in your feet, and others will see Me too, through you.”
I held the box for awhile in amazement and thankfulness, and I looked at my little feet in those heavenly molds. My heart was so thankful to the Lord because He surely does go before us each day, cleaning things out of our way, and His Chariot Wheels do leave the tracks throughout our life for us to walk in as we follow His lead!

My message outline of my notes from last night's meeting:
Building the Kingdom within men hearts and minds- the Reservoirs of His Light and Life!
Luke 17:21 Nor will people say, Look! Here [it is]! or, See, [it is] there! For behold, the kingdom of God is within you [in your hearts] and among you [surrounding you]. AMPC
Psalms 84:1 How lovely are Your tabernacles, O Lord of hosts! 2 My soul yearns, yes, even pines and is homesick for the courts of the Lord; my heart and my flesh cry out and sing for joy to the living God. 3 Yes, the sparrow has found a house, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may lay her young—even Your altars, O Lord of hosts, my King and my God. 4 Blessed (happy, fortunate, to be envied) are those who dwell in Your house and Your presence; they will be singing Your praises all the day long. Selah [pause, and calmly think of that]! 5 Blessed (happy, fortunate, to be envied) is the man whose strength is in You, in whose heart are the highways to Zion. 6 Passing through the Valley of Weeping (Baca), they make it a place of springs; the early rain also fills [the pools] with blessings. 7 They go from strength to strength [increasing in victorious power]; each of them appears before God in Zion. AMPC
The role of God’s Thoughts, Dreams, and Visions in our lives:
The Pathways of His Rest are for our Hearts, Minds, and Bodies
Psalms 16:5 The Lord is my chosen and assigned portion, my cup; You hold and maintain my lot. 6 The lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; yes, I have a good heritage. 7 I will bless the Lord, Who has given me counsel; yes, my heart instructs me in the night seasons. 8 I have set the Lord continually before me; because He is at my right hand, I shall not be moved. 9 Therefore my heart is glad and my glory [my inner self] rejoices; my body too shall rest and confidently dwell in safety, 10 For You will not abandon me to Sheol (the place of the dead), neither will You suffer Your holy one [Holy One] to see corruption. 11 You will show me the path of life; in Your presence is fullness of joy, at Your right hand there are pleasures forevermore. AMPC
TPT: Psalms 16:7-11 The way you counsel me makes me praise you more, for your whispers in the night give me wisdom, showing me what to do next. Because I set you, Yahweh , always close to me, my confidence will never be weakened, for I experience your wraparound presence every moment. My heart and soul explode with joy—full of glory! Even my body will rest confident and secure. For you will not abandon me to the realm of death, nor will you allow your Faithful One to experience corruption. Because of you, I know the path of life, as I taste the fullness of joy in your presence. At your right side I experience divine pleasures forevermore!
The Fight is Darkness and Light – Clearing out the Clutter, Confusion, and Fear!
Colossians 1:13 [The Father] has delivered and drawn us to Himself out of the control and the dominion of darkness and has transferred us into the kingdom of the Son of His love, AMPC
The role of Gods Words sown in our hearts and minds, which directs our thoughts, our words, and our walks:
Mark 4:14 The sower sows the Word. 15 The ones along the path are those who have the Word sown [in their hearts], but when they hear, Satan comes at once and [by force] takes away the message which is sown in them. 16 And in the same way the ones sown upon stony ground are those who, when they hear the Word, at once receive and accept and welcome it with joy; 17 And they have no real root in themselves, and so they endure for a little while; then when trouble or persecution arises on account of the Word, they immediately are offended (become displeased, indignant, resentful) and they stumble and fall away. 18 And the ones sown among the thorns are others who hear the Word; 19 Then the cares and anxieties of the world and distractions of the age, and the pleasure and delight and false glamour and deceitfulness of riches, and the craving and passionate desire for other things creep in and choke and suffocate the Word, and it becomes fruitless. 20 And those sown on the good (well-adapted) soil are the ones who hear the Word and receive and accept and welcome it and bear fruit—some thirty times as much as was sown, some sixty times as much, and some [even] a hundred times as much.
Clearing out the Pathways in our hearts and minds:
Hebrews 12:1 Therefore then, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses [who have borne testimony to the Truth], let us strip off and throw aside every encumbrance (unnecessary weight) and that sin which so readily (deftly and cleverly) clings to and entangles us, and let us run with patient endurance and steady and active persistence the appointed course of the race that is set before us, 2 Looking away [from all that will distract] to Jesus, Who is the Leader and the Source of our faith [giving the first incentive for our belief] and is also its Finisher [bringing it to maturity and perfection]. He, for the joy [of obtaining the prize] that was set before Him, endured the cross, despising and ignoring the shame, and is now seated at the right hand of the throne of God. 3 Just think of Him Who endured from sinners such grievous opposition and bitter hostility against Himself [reckon up and consider it all in comparison with your trials], so that you may not grow weary or exhausted, losing heart and relaxing and fainting in your minds.
Our paths are marked out by the Lord to walk in:
Psalms 17:1 Hear the right (my righteous cause), O Lord; listen to my shrill, piercing cry! Give ear to my prayer, that comes from unfeigned and guileless lips. 2 Let my sentence of vindication come from You! May Your eyes behold the things that are just and upright. 3 You have proved my heart; You have visited me in the night; You have tried me and find nothing [no evil purpose in me]; I have purposed that my mouth shall not transgress. 4 Concerning the works of men, by the word of Your lips I have avoided the ways of the violent (the paths of the destroyer). 5 My steps have held closely to Your paths [to the tracks of the One Who has gone on before]; my feet have not slipped. 8 Keep and guard me as the pupil of Your eye; hide me in the shadow of Your wings 9 From the wicked who despoil and oppress me, my deadly adversaries who surround me. 15 As for me, I will continue beholding Your face in righteousness (rightness, justice, and right standing with You); I shall be fully satisfied, when I awake [to find myself] beholding Your form [and having sweet communion with You].
TPT: Psalms 17:3-5 For in a visitation of the night you inspected my heart and refined my soul in fire until nothing vile was found in me. I will not sin with my words. Following your word has kept me from wrong. Your ways have molded my footsteps, keeping me from going down the paths of the violent. My steps follow in the tracks of your chariot wheels, always staying in their path, never straying from your way. 15 As for me, because I am innocent, I will see your face until I see you for who you really are. I will be satisfied in an awakening of your likeness in me!
