Spiritual Reflections 01.12.26
Good Morning Crossroad Family,
There’s a verse in the book of Job that reflects on the power of one’s words and their faith and belief in those words. Job 22:28 says, “You will also declare a thing, and it will be established for you; so light will shine on your ways.”
What a powerful and impactful declaration to start a new year. We are bombarded with so much negative information and negative stimuli that it can affect one’s outlook on life if allowed. This verse offers hope in unhopeful and contrary conditions. When we learn to speak confidently and align ourselves with God’s will and His word, our desires may come to pass. We can have guidance and illumination in our lives. We can therefore see from a broader perspective and outlook. We can see out of the lenses of God Himself. Things will look a lot different when we see from God’s point of view. When we combine our faith with positive proclamations, we can be assured of God’s divine support.
This year, I challenge you; if you don’t like what you see- learn to change what you say! Jeremiah 1:12 says, “God watches over His word to perform it." God looks intently and listens closely for those that speak His words over situations. It’s a promise that God’s spoken word won’t return void but will accomplish His purpose in our lives.
Make it a great day!
Grace & Peace,
Chap. Darryl Anderson
