I greet and bless everyone in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord. The blessed word that God has given for you today, is from the book of Deuteronomy 11:11,12, ‘the land, whither ye go to possess it, is a land of hills and valleys, and drinks water of the rain of heaven: A land which the LORD thy God cares for the eyes of the LORD thy God are always upon it, from the beginning of the year even unto the end of the year.”
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, from the above passage we learn that God is about to take you into the New Year 2020, with all the blessings of God. May be in the bygone years you would have gone through many disappointments, loss and failures, but in the coming New Year God is taking you to a (land) filled with valleys and hills which means you are about to enter into a year of blessing. Because the Lord says, “’ I have come to seek that which was lost.” Hence He will recover all that you have lost in your life, in the New Year with a double portion of blessing for I know that Jesus Christ is one who does, what He says for God is the strength of Israel, who will not lie, nor relent.
Give thanks unto the Lord for the New Year that is to come. Try to hold on to Jesus and walk along with Him throughout this new year. And the Lord will be pleased with you if you walk along with Him. Many whom you trusted might have deserted you, but God will neither leave you nor forget you. So leaving behind all bad habits follow Jesus. The New Year will be like a land filled with hills and valleys with plenty of rain and water which indicates God’s blessing. The more the land is covered with mountains and hills the more you have the protection of God. In the New Year the protection of God will be upon you and your family as never before. The Hills are a symbol of freshness and greenery in your life. Just as Jerusalem is surrounded with mountains God’s
favour and mercy will surround you and your family in the coming year. The word of God says, For those who fear God, He will descend upon you and encamp around you, and will protect you. As a wall of fire until this day you would have incurred great loss and suffered many problems, in your life. But God who changes all situations will change all your sorrows into joy and comfort you on every side.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, The worldly security like, Black Cats, Z Security, may be temporary but Godly security will be eternal. Hold on to the Lord Jesus Christ who is the Rock, Fortress, Deliverer, Strength and Refuge for all those who trust Him. Enter into the New Year, holding on to Jesus for He says, “I will keep you in the cleft of the rock and cover you with my hands.”Yes Jesus will protect you from all danger and harm that is to come in the New Year. God promises to protect not only you, but also your children and grandchildren, wherever they may be placed. His arm embraces and protects. His hand wipes your tears. His righteous right hand will hold you and lead you all through the New Year. So move along with Him into the land you have inherited, with Hills and Valleys.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, Until this day, you might have lived in parched and sun scorched land. But hereafter you are going to possess a land with rich greenery. God will eradicate all your poverish state of life and will settle you in a large fertile land flowing with milk and honey. A river of prosperity will flow into your life, your house, and into your family. One who opens the door that no man can shut will open the rivers of blessing . So your house will be filled with new wine, oil, wealth income, anointing and all the barriers that stand as a blockade from flowing will be broken. All yoke will be torn apart. Just as the land of Canaan drew water from within and supplied water to all the territories, you will be able to save from your income, for you and your children. God is removing all poverty and there’s going to be plenteous in the
New Year. God will bless the work of your hand and you will lend to others and not borrow.
The Lord cares for you. Last year you were so worried that no one cared for you. But there is one who cares for you, and He is the Lord Jesus Christ. There was no one to inquire about your welfare, but this year God will provide people to inquire and console and comfort you. He is mindful of you and so he will set people for you. He met the man who sat beside the pool at Bethesda for someone to help him for 38 long years but Christ came forward to help him. He said, “’ Rise up and walk” and He immediately began to walk. God remembers to meet all your needs and reward you richly.
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, Finally God says, that His eyes are upon you from the beginning of the year to the end of the year. Just as the eyes of God were upon the people Israel, He will keep His eyes upon you and lead you in to the land flowing with milk and Honey. When His eyes are upon you then no satan can have a hold on you. You shall receive deliverance from all works of the evil spirit. This New Year will be a Year of Deliverance. Those who ran behind worldly things will in future run after God and His Glory.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank you for this blessed day. Lord we thank you for helping us enter into the New Year. Teach us to hold on to Jesus and follow His good steps. Keep us safe from all danger and harm. Help us to inherit the blessings of God. Thank you for leading us into the land of Hills and Valleys flowing with water and a land ever fresh and greenery.
In Jesus name we pray.
Amen.
