At the beginning of the year, I heard several things about the new year while I was praying to God for other things. I wrote them down and I thought to share them in the mid-year season, praying it's an incredible blessing to you even in your mid-year journey of life.
PART A: ABUNDANT BLESSINGS1. He will bless them that fear the Lord , both small and great. The Lord shall increase you more and more, you and your children. Ye are blessed of the Lord which made heaven and earth. Psalm 115:13-15 KJVYes! He will bless his devoted lovers who bow before him,no matter who they are. God himself will fill you with more. Blessings upon blessings will be heaped upon you and upon your children from the maker of heaven and earth,the very God who made you! (Other translation)PART B: GOD WILL AVENGE2. For the day of vengeance is in mine heart, and the year of my redeemed is come. Isaiah 63:4 KJVI decided that the time to save my people had come; it was time to punish their enemies. (Other translation)3. To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord , and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn; Isaiah 61:2 KJVHe has sent me to proclaim That the time has come When the Lord will save his people And defeat their enemies. He has sent me to comfort all who mourn,(Other translation)4. To me belongeth vengeance, and recompence; their foot shall slide in due time: for the day of their calamity is at hand, and the things that shall come upon them make haste. Deuteronomy 32:35 KJVI will take revenge; I will pay them back. In due time their feet will slip. Their day of disaster will arrive, and their destiny will overtake them. (Other translation)5. For it is the day of the Lord's vengeance, and the year of recompences for the controversy of Zion. Isaiah 34:8 KJVThis will happen because the Lord has chosen a time for punishment. He has chosen a year when people must pay for the wrong they did to Zion.(Other translation)6. Say to them that are of a fearful heart, Be strong, fear not: behold, your God will come with vengeance, even God with a recompence; he will come and save you. Isaiah 35:3-4 KJVPeople are afraid and confused. Say to them, “Be strong! Don’t be afraid!” Look, your God will come and punish your enemies. He will come and give you your reward. He will save you.(Other translation)PART C : BOUNTIFUL RESTORATION7. And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpiller, and the palmerworm, my great army which I sent among you. And ye shall eat in plenty, and be satisfied, and praise the name of the LORD your God, that hath dealt wondrously with you: and my people shall never be ashamed. Joel 2:25-26 KJVI’ll make up for the years of the locust,the great locust devastation—Locusts savage, locusts deadly,fierce locusts, locusts of doom,That greatl locust invasionI sent your way. You’ll eat your fill of good food. You’ll be full of praises to your God, The God who has set you back on your heels in wonder. Never again will my people be despised. You’ll know without question that I’m in the thick of life with Israel,That I’m your God, yes, your God,the one and only real God. Never again will my people be despised.(Other translation)8. But if he be found, he shall restore sevenfold; He shall give all the substance of his house. Prov 6:31 KJVBut if he’s caught, he still has to pay back what he stole sevenfold; his punishment and fine will cost him greatly. (Other translation)
