12:38: “End of the year. This end leads to many New Beginnings. Beginnings and newness created by Me long ago. The angels are shouting over this one. They love to see what I create and know I have much planned for earth this coming year. My angels stand ready to assist. They wonder if you, My People, are ready. I have assured them you are. Over the past five years I have brought you through hardships turned into blessing, for I have used many plans of your enemy as means to prepare you for what is now to come.

“At this time of year many of you practice what you call New Year’s Resolutions. Hear Me now in My Resolutions for you and My creation.

“I RESOLVE to AWE you. Awe means wonder. I will show you wondrous things, pageants for your eyes that will touch your soul and make it vibrate with awe of Me. Look to My creation for things you have not seen. PAY ATTENTION. Set aside your tendency to call sequence or concurrence of note as ‘coincidence.’ Am I a God of coincidence? Does anything happen in My creation that surprises Me? That is random to Me? Do you not see the foolishness of labeling wondrous events set up by Me as happenstance? Look beyond this earthbound tendency of yours and ask yourself – What is God saying?

“I RESOLVE to draw you closer to Me. This, too – as with all My invitations – requires your responsiveness, your yes.

“I RESOLVE to bring down evil. You will see this play out through My exposure of hidden lies and schemes. The Truth that emerges will cause you to wonder – at the depth of deception woven by mankind, some of whom you trusted, and at your own gullibility at readily believing. Revelation carries that quality of newly opened eyes marveling that they could ever have been closed, for the Truth now seen shines so intensely.

“I RESOLVE to raise up My People in new and wondrous ways. What have I prepared you for? In each of you I have intricately designed a purpose in My Kingdom that will now shine forth. You will surprise others, particularly those who know you. You will surprise yourself. When your yes meets My plan of the ages, power and grit will spark within your soul. Courage and single-mindedness will prevail. Doubt flees, and Trust shoots up. My gifting within you will come forth as never before. Remember this as My gifts within you surprise even you – My gifts are NOT FOR YOU. They are for the good of others – to lead them to Me – and the advancing of My Kingdom. You are merely the carrier, the messenger, the mouth and hands and feet of My creativity. Do not become puffed up with pride over My supernatural works through you. My gifts start and end with, are all about, ME. They require humility to steward properly. Stay on your knees before Me as My gifts within you expand, and delight, and make demons flee.

“I RESOLVE to bless you and your family as you work for My Kingdom. I will shower favor upon you in unexpected and uncanny ways. In this, too, cast off ‘coincidence.’ There is nothing coincidental in My timing over you.

“I RESOLVE to let loose My Spirit over you, your family and church, city and nation. My Spirit falling on people brings them to sudden revelation of My Glory and Love for them. My Spirit brings sudden change of heart as knees fold in repentance and awe before Me. Your prayers for many lost ones will be answered. My Spirit will hover in tangible ways – in mist and cloud, in air so vibrant with My presence that you will not be able to stand. How do I change a nation? I CHANGE HEARTS. I will heal and deliver. I will set souls imprisoned free.

“I RESOLVE to provide you with all the strength and wisdom you need as you stand strong and war for My Kingdom. My endurance does not run out. My strength only builds, does not falter. When you become weary – PRAISE ME. Praise is your greatest weapon, for devils flee before it. Demons and Satan cannot remain in the presence of praise. Praise physically hurts them, rattles their brains. Think of Jehoshaphat’s army, who did not need to fight their innumerable enemy, but were required to go to battle, their singers and musicians IN FRONT. Why did I command such a tactic? IT WAS THEIR PRAISE THAT CAUSED THEM TO NOT HAVE TO FIGHT. Their praise chased demons away from their own army and to the armies that rose against them. The demons turned their itch to fight against the armies who had amassed to fight My People – and they fought and killed EACH OTHER. PRAISE became the weapon.

“I RESOLVE to change the earth. My Kingdom on earth now rises, and all must change before it. Life Abundant for My People and My Harvest – for they shall join My ranks. Judgment for those who stubbornly conceal their sin and refuse repentance.

“AWE and WONDER await you, My People. Stand strong against opposition. Above all, TRUST ME. My Word is Gold. It will not lose its value and will not fail. Trust is required when you cannot see your way ahead. I see it. I AM all you need.

“All praise and honor to the Glorious One who sits on the throne. All praise and honor to the Father, Son, and Spirit. Amen.”
