"Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert." — Isaiah 43:19 KJV
Good Morning Agape Family — Happy Anniversary Eve! 31 is not an ending, it is a new thing beginning. God is not doing a repeat, He is doing a new thing. Yesterday's water kept us, but today He is making rivers in desert places. Get ready, Agape — what springs forth now has never been seen in this house before. The best is not behind you, it is BEFORE you.
1. BEHOLD — hinneh - God demands your attention for the new Behold! God is interrupting nostalgia to announce the new. Don't be so busy celebrating yesterday that you miss the new He is birthing today. Look up!
2. NEW THING — chadash (brand new, never existed before) Chadesh is not a renovated thing, it is a new thing. Chadash means no one in Agape has seen this before. New souls, new building, new influence in Plainfield. God is not recycling, He is creating.
3. NOW IT SHALL SPRING FORTH — tsamach (to sprout, bud, break out now) Now. Not next year, now. The seed of 31 years is sprouting. What was underground — prayers, tears, fasting — is breaking ground this anniversary. Shall ye not know it? Perceive it!
4. RIVERS IN THE DESERT — nahar (flowing, abundant provision where there was none) God will make a WAY where Plainfield says there is no way, and rivers where Agape felt dry. Wilderness seasons become watered testimonies. Your desert becomes your display of God's river.
Prophetic Word For You Today
The Lord says to Agape on the eve of 31: I am anointing you for the next. I am pouring fresh oil on old wine skins that stayed soft. I am not calling you to remember only, I am calling you to re-enter with new oil. This Sunday is not just anniversary, it is commissioning. I commission you to Plainfield again — but with rivers, not just buckets. Go tell them there is a family that has lasted 31 years because I never left. And tell them if I kept Agape, I can keep them too. THIS IS YOUR NEW THING SEASON.
Today’s Declaration
Say this out loud three times: Behold! God is doing a new thing at Agape! Now it springs forth — rivers, roads, revival — our next 31 will be greater than our last 31!
I love you, I'm praying for you.
