WHAT IS NEXT?


WHAT IS NEXT?








Dear children of God let us answer the question of what is next. We have come to the end of the yearbook and we have to prepare to face the new years. We have many anxious and many question about tomorrow. Whether we will have things better or not, and who will guide our ways? The great leader Moses had died the people of Israel stumbled and looked for a new leader to takeover charge to lead the people of Israel. People of Israel have come to the critical position to conquer the Promised Land, which flows milk and honey. The great task was laid ahead of them, because people of Israel stumbled upon what is next? But, after the death of Moses the servant of the Lord, the Lord said to Joshua the son of Nun, Moses assistant. Moses my servant is dead. Now therefore arise, go over this Jordan, you and this entire people, into the land that I am giving to them, to the people of Israel. Every place that the sole of your foot will tread upon I have given to you as I promised to Moses. Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your future and life. Today man is very anxiously waiting to face his future and the New Year. You might have faced failure and unavoidable circumstances in your life for the past years. So now you may have a question about your future and the New Year. What is next? But our God has the answer for your questions and doubt. This New Year will be a blessed one for you and your entire households. Only trust and obey God will take care of you and your households. God crowns the year with his bounty; and our wagon tracks overflow with abundance.






BLESSED PROMISE OF GOD: - No man shall able to stand before you all the days of your life. Just as I was with Moses, so I will be with you. I will not leave you nor forsake you. Our God says that he will not leave us nor forsake us. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age. Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing? Are you worried about your food and clothing? Are you worried about your employment? Are you worried about your children? Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap not gather into bans. And yet your heavenly father feeds them. He gives to the beasts their food. And to the young ravens that cry. Are you not of more value than they? And which of you by being anxious can add a single hour to his span of life? And why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they neither toil nor spin, yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which is today alive and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? Therefore do not be anxious, saying, what shall we eat? Or what shall we drink? Or what shall we wear? For the worldly people seek after all these things, and your heavenly father knows that you need them all. But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. The young lions suffer want and hunger; but those who seek the Lord lack no good things. So this New Year please claims the promise of God and he will be with you always and all the circumstances. And will provide you whatever you want and need? Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.





WALK IN THE PROMISE OF God:- Only be strong and very courageous, being careful to do according to all the law that Moses my servant commanded you. Do not turn from it to the right hand or to the left, that you may have good success wherever you go. The book of the law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall mediate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go. Blessed are those way is blameless, who walk in the law of the Lord. Blessed are those who keep his testimonies, who seek him with their whole heart. Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the wicked, nor stands in the way of sinners, nor sits in the seat of scoffers; but his delight is in the law of the lord, and on his law he meditates day and night. He is like a tree planted by streams of water that yields its fruit in its season, and its leaf does not wither. In all that he does, he prospers.




Dear friends, you may be anxious about what is next? Whether this New Year will bring good thing or bad; but Paul says that the Lord is at hand; do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.  Dear friends casting your anxieties on God, because he cares for you. Cast your burden on the Lord, and he will sustain you; he will never permit the righteous to be moved. What is next is to firmly believe on God’s promise and to obey and walk according to the God’s directions and you will be succeeded. If you are blessed by what is next?
