This will give you joy and confidence!

In this new year, instead of worrying about how we are going to get our needs met, let’s daily decree His word over our lives.  2 Corinthians 9:8 says: “God is able to make all grace abound toward you, that you, always having all sufficiency in all things, may have an abundance for every good work.”

His Word is His promise. It is his bond. If He said it, He will do it. This means that we can serve the Lord this year with gladness of heart, knowing that He meets all of our needs according to His riches in Glory by Christ Jesus. All grace is abounding toward us, so we can rejoice and confidently say, this is the day that the Lord hath made. I will rejoice and be glad in it (Psalm 118:24)!

This is sweet and healing like honey!

We have heard that there is power in our words. Well, we can actually promote healing to the body and spirit, and release sweetness to our souls. Proverbs 16:24 (TPT) “Nothing is more appealing than speaking beautiful, life-giving words. For they release sweetness to our souls and inner healing to our spirits”. The Amplified Bible states it this way: “Pleasant words are like a honeycomb, Sweet and delightful to the soul and healing to the body.” We know that honey is a superfood. It is also a healing and anti-bacterial in nature. The Proverbist compared pleasant words to honey. Did you know this? This is vital because we have access to family, friends, neighbors and co-laborers. We can choose to be healers by disciplining the words we speak so that others will hear words of life and healing. Let your words release grace, love and pleasant, life-giving words in your sphere of influence. Remember: Jesus said: I came to give life, and life in abundance. Be an extension of His love. This generation desperately needs this!
