STARTING THE YEAR RIGHT

advertisement

s we entered the New Year, many people expected different things. Many expect prophecies from men of God, how the year will be, and many are running around hunting other people's destinies. Many are looking for someone to speak over their lives or prophesy to them for the year.

COMMAND YOUR YEAR

The Lord God has placed in you the power to determine and shape your destiny. That power is in your tongue. The treasure is in the word of God. The word of God says:

His divine power has granted to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of him who called us to his own glory and excellence, by which he has granted to us his precious and very great promises, so that through them you may become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped from the corruption that is in the world because of sinful desire (2 Peter 1:3-4).

This is the beginning of the year. It is a new beginning, and the mercies of God over every life is new every morning. Since this is the beginning of the year, it is the womb of the year. What you pregnant into your year is what it will give birth unto you. Don't let the enemy take your year from you. Learn to order your year. God said to Job: Hast thou commanded the morning since thy days; and caused the dayspring to know his place, (Job 38:12).

When you command your morning, when you set your morning in order, when you pregnant your morning: the dayspring, the braking of the day will be ordered according to your commands. Your day will give birth to what you put into it. The womb of the morning has ears and will receive everything you put therein, and give it back to you during the day. The angels of the Lord heed and perform the words of God in your mouth. So then, the head of the year is the womb of your year. What you put into it is what your year will bring forth. By pregnanting your days and year, your dayspring will shake the wicked out of its place.

I once watched a Nigerian movie and saw something that taught me a deep lesson. The leader of a cult who was also a leader in a Church, feigned sick and would not attend the Church night vigil that night. He went to bed and attended their occult meeting, but the night vigil ended too early in order to go and pray for him. He was deeply asleep, which scared the people that came to pray for him, but he was just presiding the meeting in their coven. They began to pray fervently for him, and because of the prayers, they could not get out of their meeting and return to their bodies. He asked everyone to remain seated and quiet. The prayer continued fervently on his behalf until daybreak. Before this prayer started, he wanted to dismiss the meeting very early so that the dayspring would not catch up with them. But unfortunately for them, the prayers caused the dayspring to catch up with them and they all died. They did not wake up again because they could not return to their bodies because of the prayers.

The word of God says that the dayspring will shake the wicked out of their place, when you command your morning. I will talk more on this on the book: Divine appointments and prayer watches.

The morning is the beginning of a thing in your life. January is the beginning of the year. God and everything that God created is expecting you to stand up and pregnant the womb of your year. The heavens are listening for you to pregnant your morning so that the element will assist you to fulfil divine purpose for your life.

And the earth shall hear the corn, and the wine, and the oil; and they shall hear Jezreel (Hosea 2: 21-22).

The Lord God said: I am the LORD thy God, who brought thee out of the land of Egypt. Open thy mouth wide, and I will fill it (Psalm 81: 10). Why mouth? Your destiny is controlled by your mouth. It is written:

A man's belly shall be satisfied with the fruit of his mouth; and with the increase of his lips shall he be filled. Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof (Proverbs 18: 20-21).

A man shall eat good by the fruit of his mouth: but the soul of the transgressors shall eat violence (Proverbs 13:2).

The source of your knowledge is the word of God, your treasures are all laid out there. Your covenant blessings are already purchased for you by the precious Blood of Jesus Christ. They are your inheritance in Him. Dedicate this month to the Lord through prayer and fasting. You can also give a first fruit offering to God, and watch Him fill your basket with increase, amen. As you spend quality time with God in the study of His word, devouring the word of God like delicious food, the Holy Spirit will begin to enlighten your understanding concerning God's plan for your year. As you see the plan of God for your life and your year, begin to align your life through prayer to your prophetic purpose. Tighten your belt, put on the whole armor of God, and begin to decree the word of God concerning those plans of God into your life. Determine that this year is a new beginning in your life. If you have suffered losses in the past, take back, take back. Declare over and over that the gates of Hell shall never prevail against the plan of God for you this year. Don't let the enemy rob this year from you. Command your morning, diligently invest the word of God and prayer into your year. If the Lord asks you to sow financial seed for the year, you do just that. This month is the month to download your success, your kingdom rights into your year and continue to enforce them each breaking of the morning until the purpose of God for your year is fulfilled.

As you do this, don't forget to carry your entire family along. What you sow into the lives of your children is what they will bring forth.

May the Lord grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with power through His Spirit in the inner man, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith;

… may you be rooted and grounded in the love of Christ which passes knowledge; His divine favor go with you this year as you diligently seek Him with all your heart to know and to abide in His will. You shall run and never grow weary, and walk and never faint even as you wait upon the Lord for your prophetic purpose in Jesus name.

You shall be the head and not the tail, and you shall be above only. As you continue to press into His presence with clean hands and pure hearts, the Lord will open unto you His good treasures and cause the rain to give you His increase in their seasons in Jesus name. Your seasons shall not be frustrated as you diligently seek and pursue Him for intimacy and deep knowledge of Him. His glory shall be your reward, and He shall surely fill your mouth with good things and satisfy you with the abundant goodness and the treasures of His house in Jesus name, amen.
