Him Who has Plans and a Future

MARTY GABLER—As the people of God assemble today may they look to Him Who has plans and a future for each of them. May they clearly see and understand that just because they may have a history of defeat and never-ending need, that the future Jehovah God is working on is one of hope and security in Him. Rom.15:4—“Whatever was written in the past was written for our instruction so that we could have hope through endurance and through the encouragement of the scriptures.”  Heb.10:23—“Let’s hold on to the confession of our hope without wavering, because the one who made the promises is reliable.”


Increase in This Year

Marty Gabler—I pray that the Lord bring to you and your household increase in this year. May the Lord increase mental acumen in the children that are unable to bring up their grade average. May the Lord increase the fruitfulness of the womb that is unable to bear children.  May the Lord increase love and care and affection among your family members. May the Lord increase your ability to discern those destructive forces that will attempt to divide your family and your church in order to destroy your synergy for His Kingdom. May the Lord increase your capacity for successful participation in His plan.  “May the Lord give you increase more and more, You and your children.” (Ps.115:14, NKJV)


What of the New Year?

Marty Gabler—What of the New Year? — Thoughts, Plans & Inventions —— The Psalmist declares he is aware that He is included in God’s thoughts. One of the meanings of “thoughts” (Jer.29:11) is “an invention.” God has a plan for you in 2025 and, if necessary, He will INVENT required elements to work together to get you to that goal that glorifies Him and serves His purposes. He is beneficent and He is creative.
“thoughts”: a device, a plan, a purpose, AN INVENTION (Thayer) “For I know the thoughts and plans that I have for you, says the Lord, thoughts and plans for welfare and peace and not for evil, to give you hope in your final outcome.” (Jer.29:11, Amp)

Getting to Promise

Kathy — As surely as Ishmael was a potential within the loins of Abraham, most of our “Ishmaels” are rooted WhichPlanMakewithin our own soul. An “Ishmael’s” strongest lure is usually that it is a logical or practical answer to a dilemma. An Ishmael represents a deceptive compromise or settlement or detour in our destiny. It is an effort to get to promise our way instead of God’s or in our time instead of His. Eccl.3:11, Amp — “He has made everything beautiful and appropriate in its time. He has also planted eternity [a sense of divine purpose] in the human heart [a mysterious longing which nothing under the sun can satisfy, except God]—yet man cannot find out (comprehend, grasp) what God has done (His overall plan) from the beginning to the end.”


Time Period the Lord has Made

2020 is the time period the Lord has made (Ps.118:24). We will rejoice because the futureLord has made it in keeping with His purposes and plans. It is a time period that we may not thoroughly understand nor have a complete grasp of. Yet, the times are in His hand (Ps.31:15). Throughout 2020 we will continue to rejoice because the all-wise God is not behind the times nor even trying to catch up. He has already stepped out into tomorrow and bids us come and partake in His worthy enterprise and we will engage His design with energy and expectation of the extraordinary. May the Lord grant you every enabling blessing for His Kingdom purposes in 2020.  “So shall you know skillful and godly Wisdom to be thus to your life; if you find it, then shall there be a future and a reward, and your hope and expectation shall not be cut off.” (Prov.24:14, Amp)


Great Year to be Alive

(Melissa Gabler) — What a great, great year to be alive! We GET to not only see the shift, we get to BE the shift. Yes, the glory of God is going to be not only seen, but known.  And it’s not because things just got that bad, it’s because things and people (this includes you) are now in place for undeniable God elements.  Get ready.


Desperate for Change

(Kathy Gabler)—Our Battles this last year may have been physical or financial or attacks from people or harassment in circumstances or a siege of constant pressure. Whatever the conflict, I think battle-weariness sets in at the point there seems to be no let up, no end. Changelessness is exhausting. It can make us too tired to muster hope, but like David, that’s the time to talk to God openly. In Psalm 55, David told the Lord that he just wanted some peace and quiet, a walk in the country and a cabin in the woods. He told Him his heart was desperate for change(MSG). When we come to God in exhausted desperateness, He does not meet us there as a stonewall of resistance. That place of meeting with Him is a threshold, a starting place, a second wind. Just breathe.

The Forming Of Tomorrow

Look aheadBy looking around us today, by looking at the recent past and even the distant past, how is it that we can decide what tomorrow is going to be?  There are things in the plans of God that have not yet been formed that will be our answer.  Elijah’s servant went down to the sea seven days in a row before he saw what had not been formed the day before or the previous five before that (1K.18:44).

“You have heard [these things foretold], now you see this fulfillment. And will you not bear witness to it? I show you specified new things from this time forth, even hidden things [kept in reserve] which you have not known.

7 They are created now [called into being by the prophetic word], and not long ago; and before today you have never heard of them, lest you should say, Behold, I knew them! (Isa.48:6-7, Amp)
