Good Morning. Psalm 118:24 says: "This is the day that that Lord has made we will rejoice and be glad in it". Notice that the scripture does not state to rejoice if you feel like it. Rejoice if things are going well. This scripture instructs us to rejoice just because the Lord has made another day. As you get started today you may be facing some obstacles and you may not be feeling your best. Just remember that it is our reasonable service to rejoice and be thankful just because the Lord has given us another day of life.

Here we are being invited by our dear Lord to come into another year. Coming into a new year may be exciting or we may be coming into the new year in the midst of a trial or tribulation. Just remember the same Lord who got us through 2019 will be with us on our journey in 2020. There is a song that says, “Don’t worry be happy”. Praise the Lord for He reassures us that we don’t have to worry about the future. “ For I know the thoughts that I think towards you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you future and a hope” Jeremiah 29:11.

When a New Year comes in we often feel the need to make some changes. We may even wonder if it is even possible to have an opportunity to leave the old behind and to obtain a fresh start. Well, you can stop wondering and doubting because we serve a mighty God who specializes in “fresh starts”. The Lord tells us in Isaiah 43:18-19 “(18) Do not remember the former things, nor consider the things of old. (19) Behold, I will do a new thing, Now it shall spring forth; Shall you not know it? I will even make a road in the wilderness and rivers in the desert”.
