Devotion for Wednesday
January 2
Topic: A New Thing For You
Text: Isaiah 43:16
– 21
The
Lord has promised to do a new thing for you because it is His desire to do new
things for us. The new thing will not be delayed because it shall ‘spring forth
now.’ 2 Peter 3:9 say that the “Lord is not slack concerning His promises” and
Isaiah 40:8 confirms that “God’s
word will stand forever.” A new thing from God goes with a new song; new title,
new office, new privileges, new blessings, new joy, new victory and many more.
When you are promoted, your level changes. However, a new thing from God can be
positive or negative depending on which divide you belong.
In
Exodus 14:21 -28, when God parted the Red Sea, it was a new thing. The
Israelites experienced this as a way of freedom. But to Pharaoh and his men, it
was a way of total destruction. When God says to His children that He will do a
new thing, it means that He will move them to a level of freedom they have
never known before. It also means that God is about to surprise their enemies
beyond recovery. Get ready; it is your season for a new thing that will lead to
a new song (Psalm 40:3) in your life, family, business and ministry in this New
Year in
Beloved
in Christ, before you hold on to a promise, you should first get to know who
made the promise with the terms and conditions attached to it. The one who is
making this promise to you and I is the one called Jehovah El-Shaddai – the God
that is more than enough, the Almighty (Genesis 17:1). Have you known and
accepted Him as your Lord and Saviour? Do you actually want to experience a new
thing in this New Year? Then you have to prepare yourself and rededicate your
life again to Him. If you have not accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord and
Saviour, do something now so you could enjoy the new thing packaged for you
this season and beyond.
Food for Thought: 2 Corinthians 5:17
Memory verse: Isaiah 43:19
Prayer: Lord God, do a new thing in my life that will
lead to a new song this month and always in Jesus name. Amen.
