I found this most recent article by Emily Rose Lewis both inspiring AND challenging.
Have you felt confused by the "results" of your 2018? Were you expecting a different outcome than you recieved based on what you heard from God? Well take heart as Emily shares here:
I pray God releases fresh vision and understanding for you so you can walk into 2019 with vigor and excitement! (To Subscribe to the Elijah List subscribe here.)
Radical giving this month will pave a golden path into the New Year by raising profound expectations on the storehouse of Heaven to provide an overabundance of Kingdom provision in 2019. If you have been seeking keys to open doors that were locked in 2018, take heed of this word from the Lord.
If you have asked, knocked and sought the Lord, and wondered why the doors that led to the places He had promised to take you in 2018 have remained shut to you, there are simple principles, keys in His Word, that you may have overlooked. If you had hoped to be given a supernatural revelation that would swing open the doors of destiny that have been formerly sealed to you, but ignored the key principles that our Lord laid out as a road map for His heirs to activate His power and provision in their lives, then December is the month for you to turn things around and get set on the path to victory for 2019.
| "Want greater faith? Ask for the gift of faith, and grow your faith fruit." |
December is a pivotal month for the shifting of perspectives, and a transitional month for personal preparation in order to position you for promotion, provision and purposed progression in 2019.
We Posses Instructions on How to Power Up Under Pressure
God has not left His remnant without clear instructions on how to power up under the pressures of life while continuing to produce the fruitful goods.
God has written the program of life in concise code, a bug-free code that does not crash or catch the same viruses as those who are operating their lives on a program written in faulty code. God has designed specific inputs that will 100% of the time create specific outputs. Righteousness, peace, and joy and all else that is needed to live a victorious life in the Holy Spirit are for all of those who seek first the Kingdom and the righteousness of God.
"But be doers of the Word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. For if anyone is a hearer of the Word and not a doer, he is like a man observing his natural face in a mirror; for he observes himself, goes away, and immediately forgets what kind of man he was. But he who looks into the perfect law of liberty and continues in it, and is not a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work, THIS ONE WILL BE BLESSED IN WHAT HE DOES." (James 1:22-25 emphasis mine)
Greater Cultivation Brings Greater Balance
Those who have been pressing in with the Lord in 2018, sowing generously of their time, talent, tenderness and treasure, while only seeing small movement and growth in 2018, will be going into 2019 with an unprecedented momentum for their purposes' fulfillment. Many people have been cultivating some of the various fields of their lives: work fields, mission fields, family fields, community fields, financial fields, health fields, and so forth. For these people, 2019 will be a year of the various fields of their lives coming into a greater degree of balance. The addition of Heaven's resources that had been closed in 2018 will be opening up in 2019. (Photo via Unsplash)
The scales of justice have been weighed in the courts of Heaven, and things are...(continue reading)
