1) Come into 2014 "thirsty" like never before! Come as though you have just completed a difficult trek through the Sahara Desert. Make Father's love the only well you drink from in 2014! If you do; Father's love will trump any and everything in your life this New Year! Count on it, believe it and receive it! Present yourself to 2014 with an unquenchable thirst for the cool and refreshing love of Jesus.
"Like cold water to a person faint from thirst is good news from a distant land." (Prov. 25:25 NAS)
"For I will saturate [the] thirst of [the] weary, and every person [who] languishes I will replenish." (Jer. 31:25 LEB)
"I'm thirsty for God-alive. I wonder, "Will I ever make it - arrive and drink in God's presence?" (Ps. 42:2 Msg)
"The scorched land will become a pool And the thirsty ground springs of water..."(Isaiah 35:7 NAS)
"If you believe in me, come and drink! For the Scriptures declare that rivers of living water will flow out from within."(John 7:38 NLT)
2) Having quenched your soul with the 'living water' of Father's love; spill over to all you encounter this New Year. "Rivers of living water will brim and spill out of the depths of anyone who believes in me..." The world desperately needs "Love Ambassadors" commissioned by Father in 2014! Will you allow His loving heart to beat to overflowing through your life? Love is the Royal Law that fulfills and trumps all other laws and all religiously imposed performance standards. Don't allow any other voice to drown out loves passionate cry in your heart. Present yourself to 2014 with an unquenchable thirst for the cool and refreshing love of Jesus.
"If you are thirsty, come! If you want life-giving water, come and take it. It's free." (Rev. 22:17 CEV)
"Each of us is now a part of His resurrection body, (a community of love) refreshed and sustained at one fountain--his Spirit--where we all come to drink." (1 Cor. 12:13)
3) Don't settle for anything less than Unity in 2014! "When one suffers all suffer and when one rejoices all rejoice." Consider the following story. An anthropologist proposed a game to the kids in an African tribe. He put a basket full of fruit near a tree and told the kids that who ever got there first won the sweet fruits. When he told them to run they all took each others hands and ran together, then sat together enjoying their treats. When he asked them why they had run like that as one could have had all the fruits for himself they said: ''UBUNTU, how can one of us be happy if all the other ones are sad?'' 'UBUNTU' in the Xhosa culture means: "I am because we are."
