This is part III in a series of Prophetic Nuggets from “Daily Downloads from Heaven” by Meghan Williams that are connected by scripture / theme and were birthed over an 18-month period. It is a set of Prophetic Nuggets based on Proverbs 3 (the Wisdom chapter) separated into six parts and 29 downloads.
PART III is based on Proverbs 3:9-12 (VOICE):
“Pay tribute to the Eternal in all of your affairs. Honor Him with the best of what you make. That way you will prosper to the fullest and have plenty of food to eat and wine to drink. My son, do not ignore the Eternal’s instruction or lose heart when He steps in to correct you; Because the Eternal proves His love by caring enough to discipline you, just as a father does his child, his pride and joy.”
The first Prophetic Nugget is called “Positioned to Receive {Moments with God}.”
Proverbs 3:9 (VOICE) Pay tribute to the Eternal in all of your affairs. Honor Him with the best of what you make.
{Speaking to God} I want to honor You with all that I have. It all comes from You anyway, so I owe all I have to You. But to give You my first and my best, seems like a small way to give thanks and honor for the abundance of love and grace You have for me. It also helps me resist the urge to be in fear that you’ll suddenly reject me and be mindful of my needs. So I choose to honor You first because You are worthy.
{He smiles as He replies} I receive your heartfelt offering, for I know you give it with joy. I receive the honor you’re bestowing on Me, and I value the trust you place in Me. You are My beloved, and I love to lavish you with goodness, so I love that you are intentional to keep your heart rightly positioned to receive.
The second Prophetic Nugget is called “Positioned for Blessing.”
Proverbs 3:10 (VOICE) That way you will prosper to the fullest and have plenty of food to eat and wine to drink.
Beloved, I desire that you would prosper in every good thing. In making Me your focus, and in trusting your needs and desires to Me, you are positioned for blessing. For if your focus is on your earthly desires or on your sense of lack, it blocks the very blessing that you want and that I long to give you.
Be intentional to stay rooted in Me and in gratitude for all you’ve been given. Then trust that I will bring to you what you need when you need it and more besides. For I love to take care of My children, so yield your heart to Me.
The third Prophetic Nugget is called “Implement the Instructions.”
Proverbs 3:11 (VOICE) My son, do not ignore the Eternal’s instruction or lose heart when He steps in to correct you;
Beloved, be intentional to keep your heart tender, and be open to truth – even when it challenges you. For My Spirit is with you to guide and correct you, so be open to the flow. I’m never cruel to My children, nor do I do things to frustrate them. So in the moments you hear correction, know it comes from a heart of love.
Refuse to be like Adam and Eve who chose to hide themselves from Me – naked and ashamed – rather than face Me and allow Me to bring them back into alignment. Trust that when I give correction, it is for your good and because I love you too much to let you harm yourself wandering off track. So listen and receive, then implement the instructions you are given.
The fourth Prophetic Nugget is called “Be Contrite {Moments with God}.”
Proverbs 3:12 (VOICE) Because the Eternal proves His love by caring enough to discipline you, just as a father does his child, his pride and joy.
{From a heart of gratitude} Thank You, Papa God, for caring about me enough to correct me in love. You know my heart because you know me intimately, so You know just how to tell me things – even hard things. As long as my heart is open to correction, You always say the hard things in a way I can receive.
{Praying} May my heart be ever tender, and may my heart be ever true. May I listen intently to all You tell me I should do. For I know You aren’t controlling, nor do You act on whims. So if You’re bothering to tell me, it must be something I need. May I always be contrite, and may my heart be fixed on You.
