HAPPY New Year, everyone!
WHAT a year it has BEEN! I don’t know about you all, but the last four months or so were “nail-biting”—not knowing what the LORD God was going to allow the United States to go through—another four years of hell, sending us into a depression (we ARE in a recession NOW), or, would He have an extra dose of MERCY on the U.S, and allow a true leader who cares for our country, to finally (once again) take over?
No one really knew what to think for a while. But thankfully, many people made the right decision on November 5th, and in a few weeks, this nation will be in the hands of President Donald J. Trump once again, with First Lady Melania Trump at his side. Honestly, most of us in this nation (including many who never thought they’d vote for him, but they did because they love this country and the freedoms we have here!) will breath a BIG sigh of relief once the Trumps move back into 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue!
As far as what has been going on SPIRITUALLY, in my short almost-60 years here on this planet, I have NEVER seen so much demonic activity as I have in these last four years!! What an uptick it has been since the time of the “lockdown” in 2020. When you deal with the supernatural as much as I do, you cannot help but notice those type of things. Some exorcists I follow online (FB, YT) have said the same thing—evil has definitely increased, and just because there will be a new “sheriff” in town at the White House, doesn’t mean that those who are propagating that evil, will take a few steps back and cool their jets. Unfortunately, it most likely will be the opposite that happens.
But nevertheless, the LORD GOD MOST HIGH is, and always been, ON His Throne, with His Son, the Lord Jesus at His right Hand, and the Holy Spirit dwelling in His true believers—those who have accepted Him as their Savior and Lord, and allow HIS SPIRIT to rule in and through them.
For those who walk in that “newness of life” in Christ (see pic), we know that ultimately it is HE-the HOLY SPIRIT Who not only reigns IN us, but works THROUGH us (Jn. 16:13; Rom. 8:9; 1 Cor. 3:16; 6:16,19; Gal. 4:6; 2 Tim. 1:14) in many different ways. It is THROUGH US, God’s children, that He works, to get His Word out there to the lost and dying evil world system that has engulfed humanity to the point of the evil ones seeking, killing and destroying (Jn. 10:10) every last one of us, IF those demonic entities could go so far. Thankfully, they cannot, because of the restraining power of the Holy Spirit (2 Thess. 2:6-8) that currently is in this world, UNTIL the “man of sin”—the AntiChrist, is allowed by the LORD God to rule for a short time at the End of Days.
The ONE main thing we children of God must remember on this, the first day of 2025 and going forward into this year, is what the Apostle Paul stated in the above verse from Romans 6:4. Christ’s death on the Cross led to Him being RESURRECTED, so that WE who are His (Ephesians 2:9-10; John 1:12; Galatians 3:26), have also been born again spiritually, (Jn. 3:3,5,7), made into a new creation in Christ (2 Corinthians 5:17), and have His Spirit AND His Word IN us, in order TO keep us from sinning (1Jn. 2:1; Gal. 5:16; Ps. 19:12-13; 119:9-11). THEN, as we grow IN the Lord and have the Holy Spirit rule and reign within us, we WILL be victorious in walking IN that “newness of LIFE” that has been made alive in us by belief and FAITH in the Lord Jesus Christ and His 📖Word!❤️
I pray that 2025 will be a renewed time of grace, mercy, peace, health, and prosperity for each and every one of you. And for those who have yet to seek the Lord Jesus out, my prayer for you is that you SEEK and FIND Him TODAY, because when you DO diligently SEEK Him out, you WILL find Him (Deut. 4:29; 1 Chron. 16:11; Ps. 9:10; Jeremiah 29:13; Matt. 6:33; Heb. 11:6). Remember, as it is WRITTEN, “The LORD is GOOD to those who WAIT for Him, to the soul who SEEKS Him” (Lamentations 3:25). It is WHEN we truly SEEK Him we FIND Him, and only then when we will finally walk in that NEWNESS of LIFE in Him here, and for all ✨Eternity✨. 🙏🏼❤️📖✝️
