Title: New Year's Wishes (Psalm 37:3-6)
If you say that you have welcomed the new year and do not have any wishes in your heart, then you are not qualified to welcome the new year. Blessing is to receive as much as the size of your wish. In other words, blessing is a vessel for wishing. The psalmist said, “Open your mouth wide, and I will fill it” (Psalm 81:10). A person who does not have a wish cannot receive God's blessings. Each of us must start the new year with a wish. Because only those who have dreams and wishes can succeed. Who, then, can fulfill these dreams and visions? The prophet Joel said, “After that I will pour out my Spirit on all people, and your sons and your daughters will prophesy, your old men will dream dreams, your young men will see visions, and at that time I will also I will pour out my spirit on male and female servants, and I will perform wonders in heaven and on earth: blood and fire and pillars of smoke” (Joel 2:28-30).
We can get the assurance of salvation and peace of mind through faith in Jesus. After that, if we receive the filling of the Holy Spirit, we will have desires in our hearts. Also, we can live a successful life when we use the talents and gifts we have received from God and live faithfully. should
First, you must trust God.
The psalmist David said, "Trust in the Lord to do good; dwell in the earth, and let his faithfulness be food" (Psalm 37:3). Also, Jesus said [Do not let your hearts be troubled, because you believe in God, believe also in me] (John 14:1). Anyone who does not believe in God cannot believe.
However, those who trust and believe in God will not be harmed by believing and trusting anyone. Trusting God is the only way to make our wishes come true. The reason we must trust God is because God is the Creator of all things. The Bible says [In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth] (Genesis 1:1). ). God is the Creator of all things, my savior, and the Lord of my life who walks with the Holy Spirit even now.
Therefore, those who believe, confess, and trust that God is the Lord of their lives can live their lives with success without failing.
Also, “living centered on God” means living centered on worship and the Word. Those who live centered on worship and the Word become a life full of faith, hope, and love, so they can become people who live in gratitude to God because they also overflow with love in their lives.
In order to make this wish come true, we must set a goal and pray. Because the Bible says, “It is God who works in you, so that you may set your wishes and do them for his good pleasure” (Philippians 2:13). because you said
We need to set specific goals and pray with a heart that believes in God. This is because prayer is an answer when we pray and it is to make our wishes known to God. Paul said, [Faithful is he who calls you, and he will also do it] (1 Thessalonians 5:24). Because God is faithful and always fulfills His promises, if we hope for Him and trust Him, He will answer our prayers.
Second, we must rejoice in the Lord.
The psalmist David said, [Rejoice in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart] (Psalm 37:4). The meaning of the phrase [Rejoice in the Lord] means to rejoice in the Lord. Believe in God and believe in God. It means to enjoy all the results of living depending on it. In other words, you must know how to be satisfied with God alone. It is to enjoy being a child of God, having fun being God's people, having fellowship with God, worshiping God, and praising God. The result is surely God's satisfaction.
The secret to fulfilling your wishes is not to be greedy. The Bible says [Therefore, put to death your members on the earth: fornication, uncleanness, lust, evil lust and covetousness, which is idolatry] (Colossians 3:5). Therefore, in order to make all our wishes come true in the new year of 1995, we have to dream big, but we have to start with small things.
Third, we must entrust our lives to God.
The Bible says, “Commit your way to the Lord, trust in him, and he will do it, and he will make your righteousness shine like the light of the day, and your justice like the noonday light” (Psalm 37:5-6). By believing in God and praying If you have worked hard with your mission, you must now entrust all the results to God. Trusting God is trust.
If we put our trust in God, we should really entrust our lives to God. Jesus said [Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden] (Matthew 11:28). We rest from God. If we get it, we are truly blessed. The Bible says of this [Therefore, I say to you, whatever you ask in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours [(Mark 11:24)].
A person who trusts in God and rejoices in only God becomes a person who can trust God and wait for Him. To entrust is to wait and to believe in God's faithfulness. It is also to have faith that God will bring the best results. The Apostle Paul said, [We know that God gives us good things. All things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose” (Romans 8:28).
In a life that is entrusted to God, we can live with success without failure. However, there is a part of life that should not be excluded at all. It is a fact that we have to work hard and sweat hard.
God will lead you to blessings on it.
In this way, God will surely reward those who trust in God and entrust them with their work. To do this, we must trust God completely and have faith in God first. When we do that, God will answer all your wishes, and 1995 will be a successful year and your wishes. I hope you believe that this will happen.
-Prayer- Heavenly Father, thank you for giving us a wish in the new year of 1995.
Lead us to always trust in God, rejoice in You, and entrust our entire life to Him. I pray in the name of Jesus. Amen
