Greetings, dear friends and ministry partners.
This is such an exciting time to be alive and such a wonderful time to be in the Kingdom. I've recently finished my latest book The New Season is Coming, now available worldwide wherever books are sold, and in it I share a powerful revelation concerning this brand new season of your life. Life, like the seasons of nature, is filled with change. All too often though, when unexpected changes arise, we sometimes find ourselves caught off-guard and paralyzed with uncertainty, asking, "What's next?" "Where do I go from here?" In The New Season is Coming I share powerful and practical tips to help you face your brand new season head-on with boldness and with confidence.
Although change is often difficult, it doesn't have to paralyze us. It doesn't have to sweep the rug from underneath your feet. When you realize the power you've been given within the realm of the Kingdom – "the power which worketh in us," as Paul states – you cannot only guarantee success in your brand new season but can also ensure that your new season will be much greater than your last. As the Holy Spirit began to impress upon me the revelation contained within the brand new book, I found myself drawn to the twenty-third Psalm, imagining the valley of the shadow of death. The valley seasons, as you well know, can seem quite ominous and often frightening. It's an illusion, though. It's merely shadows. It's impossible to fully walk into the newness of life, stepping into your brand new season, if you're still "overshadowed" by what once was – overshadowed by your past. As I share within the book, our beliefs and our perception are everything within the Kingdom of Heaven. Jesus himself taught as much, saying that we will be given what we believe, according to the beliefs we hold. Do you know how often Jesus taught the Heavenly Law of Attraction? It's true! He called it "faith."
We All Want the New
To some degree, we all desire a greater, brighter future. We all want the "new." Deep down, regardless of our faiths, our beliefs, and our backgrounds, we all desire for the new to be better than the old. But did you know that it's actually possible to guarantee that your brand new season can be greater, grander, and more glorious than your last season? When you begin to shift your perception and let go of those old, limiting, self-defeating beliefs, you'll begin to realize just how much control you've truly always had in every season of life. The journey of your life is exactly what you believe it to be, as I've said for years. As a man thinks, so is he. For far, far too long, you've been weighed down by the shadows of the past and have held to old beliefs you've outgrown – beliefs that stopped serving you a long, long time ago. Just like the sweater in the closet, there are beliefs you've outgrown. There are old relationships you've outgrown. There are fears that should have been put away a long, long time ago. In this new season, it's time to put away fear and take control of your God-given destiny once and for all.
The business that you dreamed of last season can be yours in this brand new season, if you'll put away fear and take the bold move of faith you keep talking about. The new home that you envisioned last season – and the season before that – can be yours this season if you'll change the way you view your role within your own life. My friend and fellow seeker, I have to ask, why wait until next season to have the life you've always dreamed of? Why put off until next month or even next year the dreams and the desires for a more abundant life when you already possess the power to create and to re-create the life you've been given? When change comes, you don't have to be caught off-guard. This new season can be exactly what you've been promised it will be – but you have a role to play.
Your brand new season can begin the moment – the instant – that you begin to realize the power you've been given to create not only your life but also the entire world around you. For generations we've heard many prophecies of change – promises of a richer, fuller, more abundant life. All too often, though, the changes never came. For most, the "new" was simply more of the "old." My friend, that doesn't have to be the case. As you enter into this brand new year, become more determined than ever before to not only believe in change but also to enact the changes you desire. You've been given a divine and heavenly promise of an abundant life. It's yours for the taking, even now. All that you desire and all that you've been promised is waiting for you on the other side of all of those excuses you made last season. The New Season is Comingis now available worldwide, and, as always, we at Identity Network are here believing the very best for you. In this new season, my prayer is that you would begin to believe the very best about yourself.
The phrase "turn your swords into plowshares" is indeed a well-known quote from the Bible, specifically from the book of Isaiah 2:4. The verse reads, "And he shall judge among the nations, and shall rebuke many people: and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war anymore." The phrase is often used as a metaphor for the idea of transforming destructive tools of war into productive tools for agriculture, and by extension, promoting peace and prosperity. It is a call for people to lay down their weapons and seek peaceful solutions to conflicts, rather than resorting to violence.
Co-Creators: Creating Your Day is my newest book, and I'm so honored to announce that it is now available worldwide, wherever books are sold. As we came into this unprecedented year, the likes of which we've never seen before, I heard within my heart the voice of the Spirit saying, "It's time to awaken the Creators!" If you're reading these words, my prayer for you is that even now you would begin to feel that stirring within you to not only advance the Kingdom of God where you are but also to create the abundant life you've been called to enjoy.
Do you ever feel exhausted trying to find the positive in what seems like such a negative world? Do you feel that no matter what you do you just can't seem to find the good in life? Well, if so, I assure you there's a much better way forward. To my dear friends and ministry partners and to all who have a love for the things of the Spirit, I have exciting news! My newest book, Healing from Negative Energy is now available worldwide wherever books are sold.
