I have loved you with an everlasting love, therefore I have drawn you with loving kindness. Jeremiah 31:3.
Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord; seeing that His divine power has granted to us everything pertaining to life and godliness, through the true knowledge of Him who called us by His own glory and excellence. 2 Peter 1:2-3
It will come about after this That I will pour out My Spirit on all mankind; and your sons and daughters will prophesy,Your old men will dream dreams,Your young men will see visions. Even on the male and female servants I will pour out My Spirit in those days. Joel 2:28-29
Dearly Beloved in Christ,
Happy New Year! And what better way to begin our journey than joining together in our 2020 Vision Meeting Workshop on January 19, 2020 from 1:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m., sharing God’s Word, vision, and provision in fellowship, teaching, preaching, prayer and worship together as we begin a new year of God’s everlasting love- another chance to live the Father’s great romance.
And come prepared for a good look at your life and where you are heading. What do you want for 2020? Think about it. It is the year of perfect vision with perfect provision. And the source is God’s everlasting love. But to have vision, you need focus. And you need to be specific, then you can focus your faith and connect to God’s power. God tells us to write our vision down and run with it.
Record the vision and inscribe it on tablets, That the one who reads it may run with it and proclaim it. For the vision is yet for the appointed time; It hastens toward the goal and it will not fail. Though it tarries, wait for it; For it will certainly come, it will not delay. Habakkuk 2:2-3
So come to our January New Year workshop meeting prepared. Write down your goals, small or great, nothing is too small for the LORD and nothing is too BIG for the LORD. And find your Scripture that lets you know what you are asking for is already yours, whether it be healing, provision, prosperity, a marketplace idea to profit for all, success for your projects, your education goals, or your business, and anything and everything! The LORD made huge things out of particles so tiny we cannot see them. And quantum physics is just beginning to delve into how God works with the things He placed in the earth for us, and how we should be working with them too! And remember, all life begins with a seed. Be specific and pray for the steps and the plan to implement what the LORD is putting on your heart. Come dream and imagine with Him because there is nothing too hard for Him. But with your vision you need a plan and for the plan you need provision for the vision. And God has it all for you.
But there are many of us who have given up dreams and visions and have no goals or projects other than to survive each day, but this is not what God planned for you when He blessed you and gave you dominion over the works of His hands! But if you feel like you are perishing, there is deliverance and, as with all things, you will find your answer in God’s Word.
There are two things that God tells us His people perish from: Lack of knowledge and lack of vision. Hosea 4:16; Proverbs 29:18. You may think you are having a faith problem but faith is based on knowledge. If you are having a problem with faith it is no more than a knowledge problem and that can be fixed. Faith comes from hearing and hearing the Word of God. Knowing God’s Word in Scripture will give you the knowledge of who you are and what you have in Christ. And when you have that knowledge, you can have a vision for your life, a vision of good health, healing, provision, renewal of youth, and great things beyond all you can ask or think! For once you have knowledge of what God has already freely given you in Christ, and how to pull it out of the spirit realm to manifest in the material realm, there is no limit to where your life can go. You will know the truth that will set you free from the constraints you have been bound with for far too long by walking in the flesh, that is by limiting yourself to what you see and feel with merely your five senses, to the realm of the Spirit, where the extraordinary becomes ordinary—where all creation is positioned to respond to the light of God’s Word and the voice of God’s Word, even in your mouth. Suddenly you are out of the law of sin and death, released by the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus, and this comes from seeing with the eyes of your heart. The apostle Paul never prayed that you would get more things from God, He has already given us EVERYTHING in His Son, instead he prayed that the eyes of your heart would be enlightened to know what you already have from God in Christ and pull it out of Him into your life in the world. You have already got what you are seeking. His inheritance is in you already. That is, if you have received Jesus as Lord so as to become a joint heir with Him.
The Year 2020! A time to resolve to fill your mouth with positive faith-filled words. Change what you are saying and you will change what you are seeing. Declare. God has given you power in words. He created all things that way and He holds things together that way, by His Words. If you want to go to a new level, then don’t complain, say what you want to see based on the truth of God’s Word and not what you do not want to see, and be thankful. The more gratitude you express, the more abundance you experience. Jesus thanked the Father for the five loaves and two fish and you know what happened. He also blessed them. You must begin blessing your things, your body, your life—don’t demean who you are and what you have. It will destroy you, those close to you, and your things.
So what do you want from 2020? The better question may be “what will you give to 2020 so that it can give back to you?” In the Kingdom of God you give to receive. You plant seed to have a harvest. Will you give others the gift of eternal life by leading them to Jesus as Lord? That is the most wonderful gift of all. Will you bring people out of pain to wholeness by laying your hands on the sick in Jesus’ Name, by praying for one another, by gathering together in His Name to bind on earth what is bound in Heaven and to loose on earth what is loosed in Heaven? Will you walk in love and truth with one another? Will you make the most of your time? Will you let God’s light shine in? Physicists have found it is releasing laser light onto the tiny particles that make up atoms that calms them down to close to absolute zero so that they become super conductors to electrical power. It is at that point that they offer no resistance and can hold an electric charge for years and distribute it at amazing speed. Do you see? No anxiety about anything, but in everything cast all your care on the Lord in prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, knowing He has already provided the solution and taken care of it before you even knew you had the problem, and His peace beyond all understanding will guard your heart and mind in Christ Jesus, and then His power will flow into you and through you with no resistance. And it is then you can do the works Jesus did and greater—like Peter, whose mere shadow conveyed that power onto the sick as he passed by so they were healed. No hindrance, no resistance. Do not let your heart be troubled, do not let it be afraid, you already have it all in Christ. No need to look for another, no need to beg for what you already own, God is not withholding anything from you, He has given you all He has in Christ, just connect by faith and let His power flood every part of your being till it overflows.

Have you ever thought about the Cross? A vertical and a horizontal bar that intersect at one shared point. It symbolizes love of God and love of neighbor. The vertical goes up to God where we are seated with Christ at God’s right hand, and on the Cross, the head is resting on the vertical bar so signifies that you set your mind above, on God’s love for you and receive His power and revelation into your life. The horizontal bar goes out to your neighbor has your hands on that to reach out to the world. And what is where the two intersect? The heart. The heart where God pours His love into us by the gift of the Holy Spirit which then flows out through our hands to heal and bless our fellow men and goes back up to God in loving, thankful praise. What a beautiful vision for our life. All summed up in one word: Love. And God is love, and as He is so also are we in this world. 1 John 4:16-17. May our vision all be lined up with His love, vertical and horizontal. Everlasting love. You are always welcome home to the delights of Father’s House, and no questions asked, except one, “What took you so long to come into His everlasting arms?”
Happy New Year! Come celebrate His everlasting Love and His Everlasting Covenant on January 19, 2020. The third Sunday of 2020.
“For I know the plans that I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans for your shalom and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.” Jeremiah 29:11.
