My word for this year is FAITH. Unless your FAITH is firm, I cannot make you stand firm. Isaiah 7:9b NLT My word for 2014 was TRUST. The definition of FAITH is complete trust or confidence in someone or something. So FAITH is the same as trust... I admit, I was offended! I always pray and ask God to give me a word that I can cling to for the entire coming year, a word that is going to define me and grow my relationship with my King. Why would God give me practically the same word two years in a row!? Did I not trust you enough last year God?! As 2015 started Satan wasted no time in carrying over his non-sense attacks from last year on our family. As I began to meditate on Isaiah 7:9, I began to look at my FAITH. What exactly does God mean when He says he cannot make me stand firm unless my FAITH is firm? I read my Bible everyday, I pray every day. How is my FAITH not firm?! Recently our family was hit hard, possibly the hardest we have ever been hit so far. My FAITH ...
I'll pour water over you and scrub you clean. I'll give you a new heart, put a new spirit in you. I'll remove the stone heart from your body and replace it with a heart that's God-willed, not self-willed. I'll put my Spirit within you and make it possible for you to do what I tell you and live by my commands. You'll once again live in the land I gave your ancestors. You'll be my people! I'll be your God! Ezekiel 36: 25-28 MSG
