God Wants To Bring Newness Into Your 2019

Isaiah 43:19 – "Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and the rivers, and the desert."

We are finally in 2019. I just want to encourage you, sons and daughters, to expect great things from God this year. The one thing about this year that stands out is newness. Expect God to bring newness into your lives.

In this year of newness, I want to talk about a few things you can bring into this year that will make newness your new normal. One thing to bring into this year is daily devotion to God's Word. Meditate on His Word day and night and stay attentive to His voice. If there are any distractions in your life, cut them out and move closer to Christ.

Also, try to incorporate fasting and prayer into your 2019. If you want this year to be about blooming, you must fast and pray. Not only does it bring you closer to God, but it also opens your eyes to see all that God is doing in your life. Often in hard seasons of life, we tend to leave God out and lose faith in the things that we cannot see. When you fast and pray, God opens you up to have hope in all that is to come.

Lastly, let go of the old. Whenever you enter a new year, God wants the old to pass away. The only way for that to happen is if we fully submit and surrender our past to God. Past sins should no longer be repeated. God can't bring in the new when we are living in the old.

So today, sons and daughters, focus on the God who wants to bring newness into your life. Learn to daily devote your life to Christ, incorporate fasting and prayer, and let go of all the old in your life. God wants to bring new marriages, opportunities, relationships, desires, and ministries into your life. Let go and let the new come in.
