Personal Devotions: Prophetic Encouragement for the New Year!

Just wanted to wish all of my blog family a HAPPY NEW YEAR.

If anyone had a New Year’s resolution to read through the Bible in this year – here’s a resource that can help:  the Daily Audio Bible.  Brian (the leader of this community) reads through a different version of the Bible each week starting at Genesis and goes straight to Revelation.  It is a community with forums, chat rooms, a Facebook page; you can read along with a link to the equivalent Scripture on the Net… check it out!  It has really helped me, even although I haven’t been consistent last year.  I want to change that this year!

Like I said,  Happy NEW YEAR –  I speak resurrection and advancement for all of us this year!  Last year (ok, last night) as I was thinking of the struggles of the past year,  a prophetic word that was given to me a couple weeks ago came back strongly to me. One of my friends, Mary, one of the leaders of one of the house churches I link with, gave me this prophetic picture:  she saw a foot, shaking off sand.  She said that God was shaking what can be shaken, so that what is unshakable will remain.  This was taken straight from Scripture – Hebrews 12:26-27

²⁶At that time his voice shook the earth, but now he has promised, “Once more I will shake not only the earth but also the heavens.”^[a]27The words “once more” indicate the removing of what can be shaken—that is, created things—so that what cannot be shaken may remain.

So my prayer for this year is that what God has been shaking in our lives will shake off the things that can be shaken – sin, everything evil, the flesh – so that the unshakable – the KINGDOM OF GOD – will remain!  Check out the Daily Audio Bible, and be impacted with the Scripture in a whole new way: go here and click on the Listen Now link.
