Gen 1:11 And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so.
On my walk I saw a tiny maple tree growing from the trunk of a mulberry tree. It had been planted in the wrong place. Now, are we some place where we are not growing to our potential that God has for us? It is a year of growth, of strength and moving forward in God's plans.
I started this new year with a morning walk and the beginning of reading through the Bible. Last night at church, people were giving short talks about their vision for the new year. Some of these I will share here.
Be bold to speak the word of God. Do not remain in the past, seek the Lord. Be aware of God's presence. Don't go to the past but do something new.
Act 4:29 And now, Lord, look upon their threatenings: and grant unto thy servants to speak thy word with all boldness,
Act 4:30 while thy stretchest forth thy hand to heal; and that signs and wonders may be done through the name of thy holy Servant Jesus.
Act 4:31 And when they had prayed, the place was shaken wherein they were gathered together; and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and they spake the word of God with boldness.
Arise, stand tall; God's army arise, put on your armour, move forward, Christ in you has supernatural power.
God speaks to ears that hear. Young Samuel learned to hear and answer God when he spoke to him. Many have lost loved ones this year. Strengthen what remains and move forward.
The church verse for 2018
Luke 17:21 neither shall they say, Lo, here! or, There! for lo, the kingdom of God is within you.
(Col 1:26 even the mystery which hath been hid for ages and generations: but now hath it been manifested to his saints,
Col 1:27 to whom God was pleased to make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory: )
