Today’s Reading:
Isaiah 43
Isaiah 51
Galatians 6
“Stop dwelling on the past. Don’t even remember these former things. I am doing something brand new, something unheard of. Even now it sprouts and grows and matures. Don’t you perceive it? I will make a way in the wilderness and open up flowing streams in the desert.
Isaiah 43:18-19 TPT
I heard the Spirit of the Living God say,
I’m making a way where there seems to be no way. I’m making streams in the desert. I’m taking you on a path you’ve never known I’m leading you out into a a lush place. You haven’t been this way before. I’m calling you out of the wilderness. I’m giving you reprieve from the fog of war, so you can experience and discern this new path upon which I have placed your feet. It’s taking you to a higher place.
“Listen to me, you who chase after righteousness, you who passionately pursue the Lord. Look back to Abraham, the rock from which you were cut, to Sarah, the quarry from which you were dug, and remember what I did for them. Yes, look to Abraham your father and to Sarah, who bore you. For when I called Abraham, he was but one person, but I blessed him greatly so that one became many.” Indeed, Yahweh will comfort Zion, restore her, and comfort all her broken places. He will transform her wilderness into the garden of Bliss, her desert into the garden of Yahweh. Joy and laughter will fill the air with thanksgiving and joyous melodies.”
Isaiah 51:1-3 TPT
I Am bringing you to a new path that leads you higher and gives you a great vantage point over the field, over the landscape, over the cities and towns and villages below. This vantage point is the place of vision and provision. You will see from My perspective up here. You will see immense potential of people and places from up here. And I will give you the key you need for the provision to access and build the vision. You thought your time of building was done. It is not. This is a time of building. You will continue to build on what you have built and established, and you will build some new things that have not yet even entered your mind. It’s time to build afresh from a fresh perspective that’s open to new ways, new materials, new partners and that lead to new outcomes.
Let everyone be devoted to fulfill the work God has given them to do with excellence, and their joy will be in doing what’s right and being themselves, and not in being affirmed by others.
Galatians 6:4 TPT
Building to show yourself approved is a test you have now passed. You will now build to prosper. Your faithfulness will not be an end unto itself. It will not be a test unto itself. It will produce now. It will flourish now. It will multiply now. Forget the former outcomes, the former structures that seemed to take you nowhere and seemed to accomplish nothing — even though you know with all that is within you that I called you to build it. That was the time of the former testing. That was the apprenticeship of early building. Now is the time to build for growth. Now is the time to build and prosper. Now is the time that building brings easy, fruitful multiplication. Do not say, “last time I built, I got little return for my effort.” Those were the early models, those were the practice rounds. Some of those were the foundations. Now the building that I invite you, instruct you and call you to do will be established, and it will prosper.
How to Respond
- Pray, Holy Spirit thank You that You are moving me forward, and You have set my feet on a new path. Help me to be one whose faith soars for the new things You are calling me to build and those You will call me to build. Bring the resources, the alignments, the vision and the provision to accomplish it all for Your purposes. Help me to stay in faith and not look back in doubt, regret or worry.
- Declare, And don’t allow yourselves to be weary in planting good seeds, for the season of reaping the wonderful harvest you’ve planted is coming!
Galatians 6:9 TPT - Declare, I will move forward to this new place on the new path upon which the Lord has set my feet. I will enjoy this new vantage point that releases His vision for people and places, and He will give me provision to build the vision. These are not like the former days and the former things He called me to build. What He will call me to build from this new place, new path and new vision will be established, will prosper, will grow, flourish and multiply.
