New year - new expressions

New year - new expressions
We are living in a day of new expressions of life. We are living in a day of refreshing and new anointing. We are living in a day of outpouring of the Holy Spirit upon all people. The new year makes no difference in this matter. What the Lord has already started, he will continue to do. He will accomplish the good work he has begun!
We are living under the influence of the Branch! In fact, we have his life in us, and he will be branching out through us in a rich variety of ways. We will see the Word of the Lord come true:
The Sovereign Lord will show his justice to the nations of the world. Everyone will praise him! His righteousness will be like a garden in early spring, filled with young plants springing up everywhere. (Holy Bible : New Living Translation. 1997 (Is 61:10). Wheaton, Ill.: Tyndale House).
It is God's purpose to show his wisdom in all its rich variety to all the rulers and authorities. Therefore he gives gifts to each one of us from his great variety of spiritual gifts. We need to mange them well so that God's generosity can flow through us. Each new day is a day of new expressions of grace. Each day is a day of new life. Each day is different the other day. It is already spring. The covenant community is like a garden, filled with a great variety of young plants springing up everywhere.
