Dream With GOD

40-Day Devotional

Day 28 – Spiritual Endurance: God’s Redemptive Love During Hard Times:

Do you ever wish that you could just start over, hit the reset button, and receive a “do-over” in life? We can, if we yield our lives to our loving Father, we can receive a fresh start – every day. (Lamentations 3:22-23), declares that “ADONAI’s mercies are new every morning.” In Messiah we can experience redemption. Only Yeshua can put back the pieces of our shattered dreams and broken lives.”

I believe that New year 2021 will be a year of changes, recalibration, transitions, and movements. To recalibrate something is a term used in automation. When a mechanical object malfunctions, the system is recalibrated to the manufacturers’ original settings {to clear the system of errors} so that the object can properly function in the purpose in which it was created. Likewise, if we have experienced damage in our lives our Father our King, reigns over us. He can take us from a posture of weakness and failure and reposition us to a posture of strength and victory.

As we step into a New Year, there will be challenges that we will have to face, however, we can be comforted by these words: “A bruised reed he will not break, and a smoldering wick he will not snuff out…” {Isaiah 42:3a}

Our Father, our King is not out to hurt us or destroy us. He wants to make us better. He wants to bless us. He wants to delight in us. He wants to heal our wounds. He wants to make us whole again. He delights in our smiles and our laughter. We can enter this New Year with your HOPE RESTORED.”

“This is what God the LORD says– the Creator of the heavens, who stretches them out, who spreads out the earth with all that springs from it, who gives breath to its people, and life to those who walk on it…” (Isaiah 42:2). God wants to breath NEW LIFE into us. We can approach this New Year with confidence and with boldness because God is for us. He is not against us. We have a good-good Father.”

Strong Winds Are Blowing:

I heard a story not long ago, about a missionary who was on his way to preach and was abducted by local rebels. He was held captive for over 10 years. The missionary was finally returned to his family and was interviewed about his experience. When asked about his experience in prison, the missionary replied – IT WAS ROMANTIC. Just him and the Lord in a solitary place. His answer makes me question my resolve and my perception.

Strong winds are blowing this way, I believe that what we will see in the coming years is meant to reset our focus on Messiah and prepare the Church for the glorious coming of our King, Yeshua. Be not dismayed the Lord will return for His “spotless” Bride. The Church will be perfected. The Church will be made ready. He is preparing us for His coming. He is making us like Him. He is purifying us. He is changing us. He is perfecting us.

So, if you are ever wondering what God is up to in your life… Here it is… This is Abba’s ultimate goal is to to prepare us for eternity… “I, the LORD, have called you in righteousness; I will take hold of your hand. I will keep you and will make you to be a covenant for the people and a light for the Gentiles, to open eyes that are blind, to free captives from prison and to release from the dungeon those who sit in darkness.” {Isaiah 42:6}

I pray that 2021 will be our best year heretofore. However, there is something required of us if we want to experience joy in its purest form. We must lay down our expectations at the feet of Yeshua. Just Rest. Allow God to give you what He has for you. Just Trust Him. Our Father our King knows what we need before we even ask Him. He is a good-good Father. Don’t Strive – Just Trust. Just Rest. Let our roots go down deed this year so that when the wind blows our relationship with God is anchored and tethered to the ROCK – Jesus our Savior.

Scripture Meditation:

Isaiah 42:3-6:

“A bruised reed he will not break, and a smoldering wick he will not snuff out. In faithfulness he will bring forth justice; he will not falter or be discouraged till he establishes justice on earth. In his teaching the islands will put their hope. This is what God the LORD says– the Creator of the heavens, who stretches them out, who spreads out the earth with all that springs from it, who gives breath to its people, and life to those who walk on it: “I, the LORD, have called you in righteousness; I will take hold of your hand. I will keep you and will make you to be a covenant for the people and a light for the Gentiles, to open eyes that are blind, to free captives from prison and to release from the dungeon those who sit in darkness.”

Matthew 24:13:

“But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.”

Prayer:

Father I thank You for my friends.. We are preparing our bodies, mind and spirits to receive your direction, instruction and Abiding Presence. Please help us. We desire to bear greater fruit. More Fruit. Good Fruit. Abiding Fruit.

Show us what we need to see. Reveal Your purpose and intent in us. Use the past pains, setbacks, failures, disappointments, betrayals and misunderstandings to fertilize our ground. We are still here because You are willing to work with us one more time. One more year. Give us time to hear Your Voice and receive Your Instructions. We are ready to move forward and we won’t go without You. Send Your Presence with us. Give us the experience of Obed-Edom –The Favor that comes with Your Presence. Be Glorified in us this year.

Father, we repent for everything we have said or done that offended Your heart and the hearts of those around us. Lord, please create in us a clean heart and renew a right spirit in us. Father, deliver us by Your Holy Spirit from any besetting sins or habits that have been hard to break on our own. Set us free Father. Make us like You Father. Let not the enemy have any place in our lives. Father, destroy the works of the wicked one in our lives and let the wickedness of the wicked one come to an end. Father, deprogram all demonic programming that the enemy has planned for your children this year and onward and decree favorable events and circumstances for us this year.

Father, lastly I pray that you make us ONE, so much so, that the only differences you see is HOLY and UNHOLY. Lord, please bring us into Your FULLNESS. In Yeshua’s Name. Amen.
