There Is Nothing New Under The Sun

I share with you a few scriptures we should consider as we enter the NEW year of 2008. Several years ago, a revelation came to me regarding these and also other portions of scripture. What may be NEW to you or NEW to me is not actually something that is new to someone else.

Whatever we do, has been done in some form or fashion in the past. For example. Consider Isaiah 43:19 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.

God had already made a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert in the past. But He was saying to a people through Isaiah (and also to us now), that although it may be NEW to you or me, He has done it before and He will do it again. Please read the scriptures I share in this Post and allow Holy Spirit to speak to you regarding NEW things.

Is God your source of Provision? Consider that whatever you need, God has already made provision. He has provided this for others. He has no respect of persons. He will provide for you. Also,whatever you set out to do may be NEW to you, but consider that someone else has already done it before you. God is just requiring that it be done again as the scriptures below reveal.

The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be;
and that which is done is that which shall be done:
and there is no new thing under the sun.
Ecclesiastes 1:9

And I turned myself to behold wisdom, and madness,
and folly: for what can the man do that cometh after
the king? even that which hath already been done.
Ecclesiastes 2:12

That which has been is now; and that which is to be
hath already been; and God requireth that which is past.
Ecclesiastes 3:15

ALL Of HIM and None Of Me (Or You)!

And Behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me,

to give every man according as his work shall be.

I am Alpha and Omega,

the beginning and the end, the first and the last.

Revelation 22:12, 13

It's Not About You! And It's Not About Me!

Our King is coming soon! We must be up and about our Father's business. We must keep the MAIN thing the MAIN thing! Sharing the good news of the gospel of the Kingdom of GOD and winning souls is GOD'S agenda, not ours. Helping others to attain "changed lives" with fruit that remains, is also on HIS agenda.

When all that we do is all about HIM, we are on the shiny path leading to success and the added benefits of perfect peace, joy unspeakable, health and wealth. HOWEVER, if it is all about us, the path leads to failure and misery.

GOD sets before us life and death. HE gives us liberty to choose the path we take. There are consequences for every choice and decision we make. HIS way is the ONLY WAY that leads to LIFE.

As we choose to get ourselves out of the way, we provide GOD an opportunity to work HIS perfect work and to accomplish HIS purpose "in' us, 'to' us and 'through' us for HIS Honor, HIS glory and HIS praise.

A More Sure Word Of Prophecy

HOLD FAST TO THE WORD OF GOD!

We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in our hearts: Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation: for the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost. 2 Peter 19-21
