We Are the New Thing

 “Behold, I will do a new thing, Now it shall spring forth; Shall you not know it? I will even make a road in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.” (Isaiah 43:19)

God always does new things, or “He makes all things new” (Rev 21:5). He never changes, but as He reveals deeper and deeper layers of the truth, His people experience aspects of Him and His salvation in brand new ways and depths. If you want to know how to say yes to something more, you must know how to say no to something you are already doing! God wants to do a ‘New Thing’ with His Church, and His Church is you and me.

To realize God’s plan and purpose for our lives and get to where God wants us to be, we should not do what we are not called to do; we should not be doing some of the things we are doing even now. Also, in trying to do what we are not called to do, the thing that is most important to God for us to do is not getting adequate attention, or any attention at all.

It is our turn to do the new thing that God is doing on the Earth. The new thing that God is doing is not technology, it is not politics, it is us and our desire to do God’s will. He wants us to walk in ways that we have never walked, talk in ways that we have never talked. He wants us to be His disciples and to make disciples (Matthew 28:19-20).

It is our turn to believe that we can do something different in the world. God is changing our focus from success to souls; to be still in His presence and listen to the prompting; from a listener and a learner to a Leader.

When we start operating in our gifts and God’s calling, they will make room for us. They will not only give us favor with God but with man 

also. They will give us a spirit of ease in doing what God has called us to do, and the confidence to say no to those things that keep us from His purpose and plan for our lives. We will then be able to do exploits, to bind what needs to be bound on the Earth so that God can loose what we need from Heaven.

Let us allow God to do a new thing with us, His Church. Say to God, “Here I am LORD, use me”, and then experience the ignition of our spirits with God’s Fresh Fire in such a way, that our zeal and interest in God and His service will be renewed in beautiful, magnificent, and excitingly new ways! Shall you not know and experience His Power here on earth. Be Blessed. Be a Blessing, and Be that new thing that God is unveiling on the Earth.
