New things happens for you today...!

See, I will do a new thing. 

Now it will spring forth. 

Do you not know it? 

I will even make a way 

in the wilderness, 

and rivers in the desert. 

Isaiah 43:19



 In the Bible, several figures reached moments where they believed their lives or missions had effectively ended, only for God to intervene and establish a "new thing" (Isaiah 43:19).

Key Biblical Figures and References 


After losing his children, wealth, and health,  
Job 
reached a state of "raw, honest, and deep anguish," even cursing the day of his birth (Job 3:1-26). He believed his life was over, yet God eventually restored his fortunes, giving him twice as much as he had before (Job 42:10-16). 

: Overwhelmed by exhaustion and threats from Queen Jezebel,  sat under a broom tree and prayed that he might die, saying, "I have had enough, Lord... Take my life" (1 Kings 19:4). God instead provided him with food, rest, and a renewed commission to anoint future kings and his successor, 
Elisha
 (
1 Kings 19:5-16).

: Following the death of her husband and two sons in Moab,  returned to Bethlehem "empty" and asked to be called "Mara" (meaning bitter), believing the Almighty had brought calamity upon her (Ruth 1:20-21). God restored her joy and legacy through her daughter-in-law  and the birth of her grandson,  (Ruth 4:13-17). 

: Sold into slavery and later falsely imprisoned, 's life seemed destined for ruin (Genesis 37-39). However, God promoted him to second-in-command of Egypt to save many lives, later declaring that what was meant for evil, God intended for good (Genesis 50:20).

Paul (formerly Saul)
:
 's original life as a persecutor of Christians ended abruptly when he encountered  on the road to Damascus (Acts 9). This "end" was the beginning of his new identity as an apostle, teaching that anyone in Christ is a "new creation" (2 Corinthians 5:17).

: After denying  three times, 's sense of failure was profound (Luke 22:31-34). Despite this,  specifically prayed for his faith and later restored him to lead the early church (John 21).

Core Themes
The Bible often portrays these moments of "ends" as transitions where God's "mercies are new every morning" (Lamentations 3:22-23) and where "all things work together for good" for those who love Him (Romans 8:28). 


So don't worry, your end is started... leave it God's hands, and you will see His new mercies.

…and whosoever believeth in Him…

You made the earth, the moon and the stars,
You created the sun, Jupiter, Mars,
Your hands created all that I see,
From the whale to the tiny bumble bee.

You gave us a mind so we can think,
You created water for us to drink,
You presence is shown in so many ways,
Even in our week having seven days.

You say you love me and I know it’s true,
Now you tell me to you’re there
And I believe you care.

Why am I convinced there’s something more,
Than just my belief that You’re the Lord,
Then God came to me and said,
In a still small voice inside my head,
“In my book I gave you a path,
But you’re afraid of this world’s wrath.

You say you can’t tithe for today,
For you only have enough for bills you pay.
Trust me my child and you shall see,
I have a plan, a place for you shelf,
Open it now and see for yourself,

My will for you is written in there,
Follow it without question or fear,
For I created all that you see,
Can your life be too much for me,
Faith is not something you say with your mouth,

You must follow me without any doubt,
And then you can say you believe.
For then you will safe in my merciful hand.

This is how I make your faith grow,
As you claim my promises, miracles I’ll bestow”
- James Corwin
