It's 2016, Where Will You Go From Here? Remembering It's A New Season, A New Day, and A New Year!

It’s 2016 and the year 2015 is now gone.   We have stepped over and into a new year.    What’s next?   Where will you go from here?   What goals do you have?   What aspirations?   What exactly is it that you are aspiring to do?   To aspire means to direct your hopes or ambitions toward achieving something.  What is it that you are trying to achieve?   Is it a closer walk with God or goals of self-achievement?   We have to understand, we are nothing and can do nothing without God.   He is the very air that we breathe.    It is in Him that we move, breathe, and have our being.    To try to achieve things without Him is futile.   When something is futile, it is incapable of producing any useful result and pointless.


Make every day of 2016 count.   Get before God.   Understand, He is beckoning you.   In other words, He is calling you to come closer to Him so that you can follow Him completely.        Remember, it’s a new season, a new day, and A NEW YEAR.   Let change take place.    If you weren’t completely faithful in 2015, let change take place and do all that is within you to serve God without compromise in 2016.   Do all that is within you to cast down doubt and fear and trust God completely in 2016.     Do all that is within you to MOVE FORWARD!    

SCRIPTURE MEDITATIONEphesians 5:1-10King James Version (KJV)
Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear children;
2 And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour.
3 But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints;
4 Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient: but rather giving of thanks.
5 For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.
6 Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience.
7 Be not ye therefore partakers with them.
8 For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light:
9 (For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth;)
10 Proving what is acceptable unto the Lord.
