Behold, God is Doing a New Thing ISAIAH 43:18-19, “DO
NOT REMEMBER THE FORMER THINGS, NOR CONSIDER THE THINGS OF OLD. BEHOLD, I WILL DO A NEW THING, NOW IT SHALL SPRING FORTH; SHALL YOU NOT KNOW IT? I WILL EVEN MAKE A ROAD IN THE WILDERNESS AND RIVERS IN THE DESERT. (EMPHASIS MINE, NKJV) God is always working out His good plans in the lives of individuals, families, communities, and nations. Jesus, after doing a miracle, responded to some Jews by saying, “My Father has been working until now [He has never ceased working], and I too am working.” (John 5:17, AMP) The context of this response had to do with Jesus healing a man who was suffering from a deep-seated and lingering disorder for thirtyeight years. The man nor the religious leaders could not discern when the Lord was doing a new thing. The Jews missed God´s visitation and the man experienced delay to his healing amongst other reasons. Jesus, however, walking in tune to a heavenly frequency could see what His heavenly Father was doing and released a divine solution in a situation that needed heavenly intervention. God has been at work, is at work, and will never cease working out His good and perfect will in the lives of His children and in the nations.
Ephesians 2:20 and 21 says, “Now to Him Who, by (in consequence of) the [action of His] power that is at work within us, is able to [carry out His purpose and] do superabundantly, far over and above all that we [dare] ask or think [infinitely beyond our highest prayers, desires, thoughts, hopes, or dreams] - To Him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations forever and ever. Amen (so be it).” (Emphasis mine, AMPC) Yes, God is more than able to WORKOUT His purposes in and through our lives. So, expect God to work in your life and through your life in this new season. As we navigate through the new year and season and continue to live life intentionally. Isaiah unpacks some important Kingdom principles we can employ in the new year to keep experiencing God’s goodness.
1. Do not ponder on or remember the former things. One of the strategies of the enemy is to make people focus on things that have not worked or are not working. Refuse to agree with any voice trying to remind you of things not working, or challenging God´s integrity because His promises seem not to have come to pass. Choose to keep trusting in God´s goodness and character because He has the power to give you strategies that will make things work or work things out according to His power at work in you and for you. Have a STUBBORN FAITH like the patriarch of faith, Abraham. Romans 4:18, “Against all odds, when it looked hopeless, Abraham believed the promise and expected God to fulfill it. He took God at his word, and as a result, he became the father of many nations.” (Emphasis mine, TPT).
2. Behold or see what God is doing or listen carefully to what God is saying. One of the weapons God has given His children to live and experience heaven on earth is their ability to see in the spirit or hear God’s voice. In situations of impossibilities or difficulties, or when faced with problems, God seeks to paint a different picture in our minds from His own reality that is full of possibilities and divine solutions. So, for the believer or child of God, it is important for us to adopt the mind of Christ in such situations and EXPECT to hear from God and receive Words of life that will empower us to keep believing in God´s goodness and experience our miracle. When the enemy tries to paint His reality in your mind, be like Jesus and release GOVERNMENTAL DECREES that unlock heaven´s reality. Matthew 4:3, “Now when the tempter came to Him, he said, “If You are the Son of God, command that these stones become bread.” 4 But He answered and said, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.” (Emphasis mine, NKJV)
