The New
Years ago, at the beginning of a new year, I wrote a prayer asking for various new things to manifest in my life. The words are powerful which have led me to divine encounters and holy whispers for the manifestations that are a part of my testimony of the goodness of God.
The list is long and encompasses several things that may or may not have been thought of are even repeats. But some of the repeats that have manifested and I ask for the increase because it is a new year and a new level. In the last year, or previous I may not have been prepared to handle the fullness of the divine deposit.
Three things on the list that was spoken have manifested so far. As an author, of course I will ask for new books. Well, as soon as I published a book in December 2024, another one was released. I had designed the cover two years ago, but was not released to begin. Everything is in His timing and I have learned to wait on Him. Then He released another book to the book that was just published. I was like ‘Lord, am I writing two books at the same time?’
Asking for new thoughts or new ways of thinking also produced revelation. There are things that you may have learned in the previous years of time that can be building blocks for formation. But then there are some that need to be discarded because of error. Transformation will occur as one constantly is seeking to have their mind renewed desiring the mind of Christ.
Have you ever asked for a new song to sing to the Lord? Well, I got one that is in my spirit constantly. But the irony is that I got the song in the latter part of 2024. It is a worship song that I heard one time and have been singing constantly. The song lists six names of God. Even though I began singing the song last year, I was led to look up the meanings this year. Then I remembered that I wrote a book, ‘The Names of God’.
The title of the song is ‘Yahweh Will Manifest Himself.’ Yahweh is "I am, "He That Is, "He brings into existence whatever exists. Rapha is "The Lord who heals". Elohim- means “supreme one” or “mighty one.” Shaddai - Almighty God, the All Sufficient One, God who is More Than Enough. Jireh, The Lord provides everything that we need to exist in the natural and the spirit. Adonai means Lord, Master, and Ruler. The significance of the name reveals the sovereignty of God. It expresses His power, dominion and authority as He is the complete owner of everything. The name Adonai gives the character role of God in our lives. He is Master. As you call upon Him using that name, you are submitting yourself to Him completely with the understanding of His sovereignty.
What a song to sing! This song brings me into a place of intimacy in my worship that allows me to release the perfume of my heart with a burning fragrance that enters into the throne room, so that the Lord will see, smell and be pleased.
Abba, I thank you for wanting me to know you more intimately and in the many different ways that cone with your names. I thank you that you are revealing yourself to me as my Healer. There nothing about me that you cannot heal. Your healing goes past my physical body. You heal my spirit, my mind, and even my emotions. Father, when I speak your name El Shaddai, I am saying that you are Almighty in any situation, you are More Than Enough. For you are More Than I can imagine and you do More Than I can imagine.
Father, I thank you that you have provided everything that I need for my existence. You have provided for my past, my present and my future. I do not take for granted your provisions. You are the source of everything, even that which may be simple and overlooked. Holy Spirit help me to not miss anything that the Lord has provided. It is important to Him that I have what I need and I must acknowledge that everything comes from Him.
Lord, you are great, powerful and mighty. There is no one who can compare to you. I humble myself before you. You are all knowing, all seeing and all powerful. There is nothing that has occurred in my life that you are not aware of. I submit myself totally unto you, my mind, my heart and my spirit. I desire to serve and please you in the ways I know not, but I will trust you because you know what is best for me. I thank you lord for you manifesting yourself in ways that are unexpected, but are in time according to your plan. Holy Spirit have your way! AMEN!
Watch closely: I am preparing something new; it’s happening now, even as I speak,
and you’re about to see it. I am preparing a way through the desert;
Waters will flow where there had been none.
Isaiah 43:19 The Voice
O sing unto the Lord a new song: sing unto the Lord, all the earth.
Psalm 96:1 KJV
For we are the sweet fragrance of Christ which ascends to God, discernible both among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing.
