TWO STRONG THEMES FOR 2021

I was just thinking about the initial impressions I had for 2021. This was what I wrote in Dec. 

• Year of giving birth to new things (John 16:21), sorrow turned into great joy
• Acceleration, things moving fast all at once (Amos 9:13)
• This is when harvest time comes, hundredfold return (Mark 4:20)
• Avalanche of blessings began, floodgates of heaven open over us (Acts 10:11)
• Time of restoration and repayment (Joel 2:25)
• Good days ahead because we have been through the fire and water (Psalm 66:12), enemy overplayed his hand 

 

Recently I realised two very strong themes coming out from the messages I had been receiving. The first one was about victory. How we had won the battle. The walls of Jericho came down, the angels marching on the mulberry trees. The attack and battle is over. We shall have rest in our land. We have won. Victory will manifest itself this year. It is time to take the spoils. 

 

The other recurring theme was about harvest. Now is the set time for harvest. We can expect the hundredfold this year. There will be an avalanche of blessings because the heavens are open over us now. The time of waiting for our harvest is finally over. And when the blessings start pouring, they would all happen around the same time. 

 

These are years of pent up blessings so when they start coming, it would seem like a fury. Acceleration because God is making up for the lost time. It would seem like a time of great restoration and repayment for all the pain and trouble we had gone through. The sense that our joy will be turned into sorrow because we had sowed with tears, now we reap with joy.

 

God is also rewarding us for our labour of love and faithfulness to Him. In this new season we shall see much fruit coming out of our lives. The barrenness is over, replaced by fruitfulness and abundance. The drought-stricken areas of our lives will suddenly become fruitful. We shall see that we are like trees planted by the rivers of water. We bear fruit in every season. 

 

This year we shall testify to the goodness of the Lord and His faithfulness. We will say that we have seen the goodness of God in the land of the living. We will acknowledge that His word never returns to Him void. That He is not a man that He should lie, nor a son of man who should change His mind. He has spoken so He would act.
