Kingdom Revelator Australia – Issue 84
A new year is the time for a new beginning. We are a generation affected by the pandemic. Yet the Lord in His infinite mercy has created us for this time, so that we can look forward to the future with hope, not withstanding the difficulties the pandemic has caused. With complete trust in the Lord, we can make a difference in our lives and in the lives of many others. As the author of the universe, He knows what lies ahead for mankind. Trusting in His mercy we step into another year full of possibilities and dreams.
“For we are the aroma of Christ to God among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing” (2 Corinthians 2:15). Let us be the light in the lives of many who have lost all hope and are in despair. Those who do not know Christ, let’s bring them into the light through our words and actions. Let’s not be demotivated by the setbacks but surge ahead with firm hope in Christ. “Hope does not disappoint us, because God’s love has been poured into our hearts
through the Holy Spirit that has been given to us” (Romans 5:5).
When Christ died on the cross, the disciples thought it was the end of their ministry. But when they met the risen Lord their lives took a new direction. So
too for us in these times, we are called to be light-bearers. When we trust in Christ, we will be able to believe that this too will pass. We have a merciful
friend in Christ and if we strive to follow the Lord’s commandments, our future will once again be bright and beautiful. As we move ahead, let us pray with
the psalmist, “your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path” (Psalm 119:105).
