(Kathy Gabler)—We should always ask God for wisdom concerning a dream or vision. Constantine was so locked in awe of his vision of a cross in the sky that he evidently thought it was a spiritual experience that affirmed his spirituality and made him a spiritual guru. He then presumed to take his nation to church but instead, he took them into the Dark Ages. After asking for wisdom, wait until God gives it so that misinterpretation does not make you miss the point of the dream or vision. Remember your safety net for dreams and visions is relationship with God so you know His voice, His nature and His character, and relationship with the Body of Christ so that you can get perspective on your dreams and visions beyond your own.

Replies That Impart Life
May the Lord give His people effectual replies to remarks and inquiries which they are confronted with. May those replies His people give impart life, truth and resolve in every situation. “A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in settings of silver.” (Prov.25:11)
When Considering a Dream
(Kathy Gabler)—When considering a dream or vision, always ask God for wisdom. You can be confident He will give it abundantly (James 1:5). The biggest challenge can be to be ready to hear and receive His input because there are times this isn’t a quick process. Sometimes, you have to leave a dream on the burner until you are able to hear His wisdom. One reason for that is because fear or uneasiness or apprehension or atmosphere from a dream can lock us down and lock His input out. Lock-down can happen also if we are too intense and keep rehearsing the details and coming to the same dead end or if we are in any type of “shock and awe” because of what we experienced.

On to Victories
As the people of God assemble today may those whose hearts are heavy from failures, defeats and grief of the past year lift their heads, get a deep breath and realize that they are part of the family of God and that they have strength and fellowship through Christ our Lord and the family of God to go on to victories in the coming year. “But You, O Lord, are a shield for me, my glory, and the lifter of my head. 4 With my voice I cry to the Lord, and He hears and answers me out of His holy hill. Selah [pause, and calmly think of that]! (Ps.3:3-4, Amp)
Awesome Reports
In 2019 I am praying to see a lot of posts that start with:
“Hey, you guys, you’re not gonna believe this awesome report. . . !!!!!”
Call on Jesus
Call on the name of Jesus throughout the year. Let His name be upon your lips. You will invoke His Name and see Him heal, see Him deliver others out of impossible strongholds of bondage and strongholds of fear. You will invoke His Name and see how marvelously He delivers you from the threat of harm, from bullies, from a violent spouse or parent or other relative. You will see God deliver elderly people from abuse by their children and others. You will invoke the Name of Jesus and the atmosphere will change.
Present Tense and Awesome
(Kathy Gabler) What “used to be” is not the witness that will impact a community or a region for the Kingdom. I AM is being misrepresented if He is not present tense and awesome. If we refuse to allow pride or fear to keep us from fresh and timely obedience, sons of God will be redefined and repositioned as needed and we will flow into a momentum that causes the good plans of God to manifest. The groaning (Rom.8:19) communities and regions will reel with the supernatural results and exponential harvest that He has planned.

Deep Roots
As we go forward in the new year may we build our lives on the Lord God and His unfailing Word and promises so that we may become stronger and stronger, as the year progresses, for the sake of our families and nation. ”Keep your roots deep in him, build your lives on him, and become stronger in your faith, as you were taught. And be filled with thanksgiving.” (Col.2:7, GNT)

Heavenly Change Agent
(Melissa Gabler)—Yes, it has come to this: Be vigilant – keenly watchful to detect danger; ever awake and alert; sleeplessly watchful. Let me go ahead and say, this is not a “you deserve a spanking for allowing the world to go down 
the toilet” post. Rather this post is aimed at being an alarm clock to wake up God’s sleeping giants to war! Is that you? Well, you’re the one reading this right now, and that is NO COINCIDENCE! So, here’s your wake up call, you beautiful heavenly-Change-Agent, you! What is a heavenly Change-Agent? It’s one who makes a difference wherever they are because they carry Heaven in them. When I say Heaven, I mean one who carries the original intent of God wherever they go. What is God’s original intent? Heaven on earth, a Kingdom without end (Luke 1:31-33). The difference between our Change-Agents and the ones making the news right now is that we cause life, healing, peace, hope, restoration—not death and destruction!
The Coming Year Totally Different
May the coming year look totally different as we look back on it than any year prior has looked. May we say that it had the look of answers, resolve and fulfillment. “From now on I’m the one who answers and satisfies him. I am like a luxuriant fruit tree. Everything you need is to be found in me.” (Hos.14:8b, Msg)
