2007- What's ahead for you and I

We are living at a time when the armies of the world are gathering...gathering in two camps: for Israel and against Israel. The wars and rumors of wars are upon us. Many of our former allies are slowly succumbing to the deceptions of extremists, and slipping away from America. And our nation is seriously divided. In 2007, you will see that problem increase.

Many of the major prophets are speaking of coming disasters: everything from volcanic eruptions to earthquakes,economic upheaval, to political dangers. "Business as usual" won't cut it- we will need to have faith and relationship to the Lord more than ever before.

AND there is great news in the midst of battles:

We have come to a time of decision. (Multitudes in the valley of decision- sound familiar?) Making decisions is tough on some people, and that is almost always due to fear of making the wrong choice. In 2007, the changes God wants us to make will require decisions. It will cause us to move from comfort to trust, from fear to faith.

If I have one word for you for 2007, it is change. Step into the change and don't hold back. Hear the Holy Spirit say "Come" and move forward. He has a very soft voice, but there is a distinct feeling in our hearts when we hear Him.  Destiny awaits us this year, but we have to actually move into it.

One of the most prolific words in the Bible is the word "go." It means to move on. Move on in 2007. Leave what hasn't borne fruit and do what brings life. It is our Psalm 23 experience- from the valley of the shadow to the banqueting table. Can't wait to see what wonders await us all!  Love, Faye and Myron

"The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want. He makes lie down in green pastures, He leads me beside the still waters. He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness for His name's sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies: You anoint my head with oil, my cup runs over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever." Psalm 23.

"Be persuaded,that neither death with its voice of fear,nor life with its many cares,  nor the attacks of the enemy which falsely accuse you, nor things present with their pressing claims, nor things to come with their dark shadows, nor the height of any mountains that stand in your way, nor the depths of any great trial that you may walk through,nor any person or circumstance which tries to quench your joy or rob you of peace shall be able to move you away, one single inch, from the love of God that covers and guards your life." Romans 8:38-39 paraphrase (from The Joys of Friendship and Love by Roy Lessin and Heather Solum)
