THE FAVORABLE YEAR OF THE LORD.

In this New Year we must dedicate, consecrate, consult, and put the Lord first in everything.
Give thanks for the gift of life and eternal life that we can have in Him. That all the things we have as health, family, work, friendships even the smallest things are results that our Father loves us and that we are important to Him.
The word says in Proverbs 16: 3: "Commit your plans to the Lord and your thoughts and works will be affirmed." Other versions say: "Put your acts in the hands of the Lord and your plans will be realized".  This tells us that we must take it into account.

Clearly the Word tells us in Proverbs 3: 5-8. That we trust in God that means we trust in Him, that we walk in Faith, that we act in His Word, that we do not lean on our intelligence because He sees beyond, his plans are much more prosperous and wise. Jeremiah 29:11 "...plans for peace and well-being" ! And it says "... in order to give you a future and a hope": Our year is assured in God!

Going back to Proverbs 3: 6: "Recognize him in all your ways..."  He says in all your ways, all the decisions, and projects, plans, questions, everything we should leave to Him.
Also in the same chapter verse 7 says: Do not be wise in your own opinion, that we respect it and turn away from evil.

¿What is to turn away from evil? It is to turn away from everything that goes against the Word of God, anything that distract us, in life, everything that wants to stop the manifestation of the Holy Spirit, then in verse 8 tells us the result: Because it will be medicine to your body and refreshment for your bones".

Proverbs 3: 9: "Honor the Lord with your wealth And with the first fruits of all your crops (income)" as we have delivered our year into his hands, let all we do be for the benefit of the kingdom.
Glory to God for this year.

The Lord said in Luke 4:18: “The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me (the Messiah),
Because He has anointed Me to preach the good news to the poor. (which means that the poor do not have to be poor in any area not only economic) ... He has sent Me to announce release (pardon, forgiveness) to the captives, And recovery of sight to the blind, To set free those who are oppressed (downtrodden, bruised, crushed by tragedy), (He speaks of restoring destroyed lives broken hearts ... Broken by circumstances, betrayals, lawsuits, marital separations, broken relationships with children, problems at work or just having no God in their lives, our Lord came to restore the spiritual separation we had with Him).
Therefore with loving-kindness I have drawn you and continued My faithfulness to you.


In Luke 4:19: to proclaim the favorable year of the Lord [the day when salvation and the favor of God abound greatly].” Glory to God our Lord who brought us the gifts of just mere life but his Spirit within us, we are not alone.
We can be supplied with his Grace and his power through Faith.
Jeremiah 31: 3 “...I have loved you with an everlasting love;
May we dedicate this year entirely to the Lord. Blessings!

What God says about Borders and Boundaries?

For the most part, Christians have asked me questions about what is happening on the border between Mexico and the United States; my perspective is this. We, as believers and Christians must see what the Word of God says, not what secular media or people with certain ideas think. In social networks it is very common for people to give their opinions - and - everyone has an opinion, but we must base ourselves on what the Word of God says. For this reason I clarify that this message is for Word of Faith Ministries’ Faith Partners; for people who connect with us and already know that we are a teaching Ministry. This is not for outsiders to comment on or share their opinion upon. If you disagree, then this message is simply not for you. This message is exclusively for the people, Partners of our Ministry, who are Christian believers, who believe in the Word of God and the Bible. If you do not believe in the Bible then this is not for you. Don’t waste your time writing comments express

Lift Your Head Up Although there are "crushers" in life, there are also "lifters". In Psalm 3: 1-3, the Psalmist says that in spite of his distressing situation, he does not despair or begins to become depressed, because his trust is in the Lord, who raises his head. When we are depressed, it seems that everything around us collapses. We lose strength; our heads, hands and hearts begin to lower. Even our eyes and our voices are low. We become weary because we are looking at our problems instead of the Lord.   Whatever it is that causes us to despair, the Lord encourages us with his Word to raise our heads and our hands and look at Him. We find one of those many examples in Genesis 13:14, when God tells Abraham, when he had been defrauded by his nephew Lot, to "lift" his eyes and looked around him in all directions, because he would give him as his inheritance all the lands as far as his gaze could reach. In Psalm 24: 7, the psalmist says:

---Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.    Words spoken by the Apostle Paul to the Philippians, which continue to be full of wisdom, true, and still active for the Body of Christ today.        Our mind is the battleground where the Devil comes against us. Here is where he brings thoughts contrary to the Word of God. Thoughts, which later drive us to speak against what God says about us.    Each word that comes out of our mouth was first a thought. In other words, our thoughts can become words if we give those thoughts enough attention, be it for our benefit or detriment.    Philippians 4:8 says:   Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever  things are just
