DCLM Daily Manna 29 December 2021 — God has something new for you
DCLM Daily Manna 29 December 2021 Devotional by Pastor W. F. Kumuyi — God has something new for you
TOPIC: GOD HAS SOMETHING NEW FOR YOU
TEXT: Isaiah 43:18-21
18 Remember ye not the former things, neither consider the things of old.
19 Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert.
20 The beast of the field shall honour me, the dragons and the owls: because I give waters in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert, to give drink to my people, my chosen.
21 This people have I formed for myself; they shall shew forth my praise.
KEY VERSE:
“Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert.” – (Isaiah 43:19)
The people of the world are used to unbelief. They have cornered themselves into a cosmos that deny them the bright prospects of knowing the God who specialises in what man calls impossibilities. Their worldview is littered with statements such as ‘there is nothing new under the sun’ and ‘can something new come from this aged planet about to die?’. Yet, over and over again, the Bible echoes and re-echoes: God is able to do all things.
Also, Read Bible Doctrine
In the book of Exodus, God parted the roaring waves of the Red Sea and converted its depths into a highway as an escape route for His people. Surely, that was humanly impossible. But with the Lord it became possible. From the text, our great God again said He will do something new. He said He would “even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert”. This goes beyond human knowledge and reasoning. It means there is nothing impossible with God.
Also read Open Heaven Devotionals
Our Lord always moves into new grounds to manifest Himself to the works of His Hands. He does so to tell us that we can trust Him to turn the impossibilities of our lives into possibilities.
Therefore, as the believer moves into the day today, he is assured of something new from the Lord. The condition to receiving it is to have faith in God. However, the unbeliever is barred from these new things until he is saved.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: The new life in Christ attracts new blessings from heaven all year-round.
THE BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Revelation 15-17

1. Admit that you are a sinner. "For all [humans] have sinned, and comes short of the glory of God....[and] the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" (Romans 3:23)
2. Repent now. "Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out ...[for] if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness " (Acts 3:19, 1 John 1:9)
3. Believe that God loves you and Jesus died for you. "God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet Sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8)
4. Invite Jesus into your life through prayer of faith. Jesus says, "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me" (Revelation 3:20)
