0:39 Gifta International. Welcome to Fuel for the Soul with John Gifta. Hello everyone,

0:54 It's wonderful for me to join each one of you today as we step

0:58 into the new here. I just want to take this time to wish you

1:00 and your family are very blessed and a christ directed twenty twenty four as well.

1:06 I just want to share a word that's has been in my heart concerning

1:08 twenty twenty four, and I just want to share that with each one of

1:11 you under the sound of my voice. I believe that you know I ask

1:14 you are led by the Lord to take this word for yourself, and I

1:17 believe that there's a principle from God's word, and I pray that you'll take

1:21 this promise for yourself. It's it's a verse from Osaia, chapter two,

1:26 verse twenty three, and I'm reading to you from the Good News Translation because

1:30 I believe this is going to be the cornerstone word for this year that the

1:34 Lord has been putting in my heart for this year from my life and for

1:40 the ministry and everybody connected with the ministry. And this is what God has

1:44 been speaking in my heart about twenty twenty four being the year of establishment.

1:48 Twenty twenty four is going to be the hear God is going to establish you.

1:52 And the Good News Word Translations is like this, I will establish my

1:56 people in the land and make them prosper. Isn't that awesome? Or is

2:01 saying I will establish my people in the land and make them prosper. And

2:07 it goes on to say, I will show loud to those who are called

2:13 unloud, and to those who are called not my people, I will say

2:16 you are my people, and they will answer you are our God. Isn't

2:21 that awesome. I'm going to talk about the second part maybe in the coming

2:24 days, but today I want to just give you this word of encouragement where

2:29 God is saying, you know what, I will establish you. I will

2:31 establish you in the land, and I will make them prosper. You know,

2:37 I want you to understand this that you know sometimes we say, you

2:39 know, I need to get settled, I need to be established, I

2:42 need to this, I need that. But this was a word that a

2:45 lot was speaking and saying, you know what, You're not the one running

2:47 your life, A very familiar line that I keep saying because I believe this

2:52 is something I want to get into each and every one of our lives,

2:55 where we know, without without even thinking, you know that you know we're

3:00 not the one running our life. It's not your hard work that's running your

3:02 life. I'm not saying don't work hard. I'm not saying and not don't

3:07 have a spirit of excellence, and I know all of that place at l

3:09 But what I'm saying is sometimes we think that it's our hard work that keeps

3:14 us going. We think that we're the ones who are keeping on going.

3:17 It's ours, it's us. We think it's all about us, and we

3:21 put our confidence on our flesh. But I want to remind you that it's

3:24 nothing but the grace of God. Apart from God, you can do nothing.

3:28 You know, you can't work hard if not for God's grace. You

3:30 know, you won't have the strength, you won't have the mental capability,

3:35 you won't be able to you know, have the you know, the health

3:38 that you need. All that is nothing but the hand of God. It's

3:43 the grace of God. So God is the one running your life. And

3:46 God is saying, I will establish my people. I will establish you.

3:52 You don't have to think about how I'm going to get established. You're not

3:53 the one to established shoeing yourself. It is God who's establishing you. And

3:59 God is I will do it. It's my responsibility and I'm going to do

4:02 it. I will make you prosper I will establish you in the land.

4:08 Today you may be saying, John, I'm not established in this area of

4:11 my life. Maybe with regard to your career, maybe with regard to a

4:14 business setting, a ministry, or with regard to your dreams, your goal,

4:17 your ambitions, or maybe a relationship or marriage. It could be any

4:20 area where you're saying I'm not saying that. But today the Lord is encouraging

4:26 you and reminding you you're not the one who's trying to make it happen.

4:29 I will make it happen. I will do it for you. I will

4:32 establish you, and I will make you prosper. You're going to experience that

4:38 abundance of God that's going to help you live the overflowing life so that you

4:43 can be a greater blessing in this year. When you take this word and

4:46 say, you know what, I'm going to take this word for myself and

4:48 I'm going to say, God, you know what. I'm not going to

4:50 try to make things happen, but I'm going to just heal to you.

4:55 I'm going to just let the Holy Spirit lead me and guide me. And

4:58 when I just surrendered to his villa and his plan all my life, I

5:01 believe that he's going to establish me. He's going to help me prosper.

5:05 And twenty twenty four is going to be my hero of establishment. If you

5:11 believe it to receive it. In Jesus' name, God bless you. You've
