Someone asked me what God was telling me or showing me for 2011. I honestly didn't have anything profound for them.A friend of mine said that he felt like God was telling him that 2011 was going to be just like 2010. Another person said that 2011 would be worse than 2010. Half of our government says that things are improving and the other half says it's not. The more I hear the more I know that I have to do my best to hear from God.
Every year I watch a spiritual landslide of "revelation" concerning the year we are entering into. It's as if God has more to say when our calendar rolls over than He does the rest of the year. I'm pretty sure that God is aware of things and is speaking to us all the time.
Hebrews 13:8 (NIV) Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.
God is not limited to or bound by our calendar. He is the same every day. In 2011 we can trust in the same God we trusted in 2010. He is just as powerful, just as merciful and just as involved in our lives as He ever has been or ever will be.
Take a moment and remember a time, any time, in your life where God met a specific need. He is just as able to do the same thing today. God is not limited in how He can bless us by who is in the White House or the State House. God is not restricted to work in your life because you are dealing with some illness. God is not crippled by the economy, Wall Street or the housing market. If God was able to supply your needs in the past He is still able to do so today...and tomorrow.
We are taking some extra time to hear from God this month. The God who spoke to Saul on the Damascus Road can speak to us today. He has not changed.
Jeremiah 33:3 (NIV) ‘Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know.’
Simple enough. Let's just do that every day.
