See, I am doing a new thing! — Isaiah 43:19
Happy New Year!
Since October 31, 2002 Discoveries Devotional / Inspiration in Your Inbox has been provided daily to readers like yourself throughout the world. For the past several months, I believe the Lord has been telling me that the time has come to make changes. That doesn’t necessarily mean that these daily devotionals are going away; it just means that we will soon be making changes. God told Abram to leave his father’s house and his own country and go to a land God would show him. That would be something like God saying to you: Get in your car and start driving (or get on your bicycle and start pedaling); I’ll tell you where you’re going once you start moving. That’s where I’m at right now.
Change requires foundation. If our foundation in life isn’t strong, then we aren’t in a position to weather storms, to grow, or to adapt to new situations. And where is our foundation? Our foundation rests on the rock solid reality of who God is. This is where we must start. This is the bedrock of life. And that is why so much of our daily devotional has been pointed at the question: What kind of God do we serve?
The next layer – the footings of our lives if you will – is understanding who we really are. We need to get this figured out at a deep, deep level to be the people of God in this generation.
I plan to revisit these questions over the next few days as we prepare for whatever changes God leads us to take here.
Be encouraged!
Dwight
What happens when you partner with Dwight Clough Ministries?
Victims of violent crimes and survivors of abuse are finding peace,
wholeness, the power to forgive and the strength to set boundaries.
Those ensnared by addictions are finding freedom. Marriages are being
restored. Families are strengthened. Christian brothers and sisters in
restricted lands who face persecution are finding strength and
encouragement. Young believers are learning how to walk with the Lord,
and people are coming into the faith for the first time. None of this
happens as a result of one person’s efforts, but rather this is God’s
work as He blesses the sacrifice of many people including yourself. We
partner with you, with other ministries, and, most significantly, with
the Lord. That’s how the supernatural happens.
