What's the Word?

Soon our pastors and television evangelist will announce a catchy phrase; a statement of faith for the year of 2010. Remember 2007 was the year of New Beginnings. Then again, other ministers preached that 2008 was The Year of New Beginnings. At the start of 2009, I heard a few saints say – It's mine in 09.

I am willing believe that God has put something good in your spirit. If you had a spot on TBN or AM 1390 radio, what would you say? If you had the platform to speak for the body of Christ, what word would you speak? I say 2010 is the Year of the Harvest. I have been sowing in good ground. I have been planting seeds over the years. I have shouted and danced over the sight of the buds. I have cried during the time of pruning. Those that sow in tears will reap in joy. Now I anticipate a great harvest. I will be blessed in a greater measure. I will sing and dance as the Lord blesses me through the former and the later rain. Now, I want to hear from you. What would you say is the theme for 2010?

Change is coming

New Year's Day is on the way. Over the next few days, men and women will gather around water coolers on the job and announce their New Year’s resolutions. Some have already shared desires for a better life while sipping coffee among friends. The topic of many emails outlines an individual’s intention to change and to grow in 2010. I expect to hear people commit to making better choices concerning their health by exercising, dieting, or to even quit smoking. Others will insist on the need for a greater prayer life and more church attendance to build the faith to pursue their dreams. What areas in your life are you looking to change in 2010?
