Believing and confessing God's promise for this New Year!

1John 1:9  If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
Romans 10:9  That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
Romans 8:32  He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?

Happy New Year 2013

A new year, a new beginning
New hope, a fresh start
I claim the Lord's promise
Of renewing my heart!

Days of failure and backsliding
Double mindedness and lukewarmness
Confessed and forsaken
In the assurance of forgiveness!

I press on to the upward goal
Seeking Him who makes me whole
By faith I take hold of the riches in store
Pressing on body, spirit and soul!

This then my confidence
On this rock I stand
"He wants it so, He wants it so
More than I can ever want!"

-- A New Year Message --

May the Lord help us to demonstrate the glory of His salvation through our daily life. Our Father is more eager to do this for us than all of us put together ... Praise God!
