For The One

New Year, Not A New Test


Listen Later

As we enter into another new year, I wanted to talk about how God has used specific words/themes over the last four years to invite me into deeper revelations, conversations and relationship with Him. I initially thought that after failing to "master" any one of these words that come New Years the following year, I wouldn't be given a new one, that I would need to "pass" one to move on to the next. Instead, in His kindness, God has done the exact opposite. He continues to bring me into each new year with a new word- one that is intimate and specific, like only one who formed my heart and knows it could draw up.

In partnership with the Holy Spirit, I like to hold a vision night in January, where I partner with the Lord in writing out prayers, personal, audacious and on behalf of others. I walk you through how I organize my category of prayers, my process in dating them and eventually one day moving (at least some) into the "answered prayer" jar. Holding the tension of disappointment in the prayers that were answered with a "no or a not yet," while rejoicing and praising God for His goodness in the ones answered with a "yes," is a practice I have come to admire.
