During this holiday season, when it appears to be a time of great challenge in our world with our economic system in chaos and the word "recession" (the act of withdrawing), being spoken over our nation, and stress levels being higher than its norm, there is a Word from the Lord,"I will open rivers in high places, and fountains in the midst of the valleys: I will make the wilderness a pool of water, and the dry land springs of water." Isaiah 41:18.
 
This is a GREAT time of expectation for the Kingdom of God, expect God to move anywhere and at any moment in your life to do the impossible, the supernatural, and incredible! As the waters shall spring forth out of dry places, as Matthew 1:21 states, And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins. We are His people, and the sheep of His pasture, according to Psalm 100:3.
 
Be Blessed, pray, and wait with great expectation of the things that God will do for us in this season and the new year.
