FAITH IS MORE THAN CONFESSING THE WORD. IT IS BELIEVING AND ACTING UPON IT . SO IT IS NOT WHAT YOU CONFESS IT IS WHAT YOU BELIEVE, ACT ON AND RECEIVE. THE NEW LIFE IN THE NEW LAND. DEUTERONOMY: 11:8-32 DEUTERONOMY: 11:12 "FROM THE BEGINNING OF THE YEAR TO THE VERY END OF THE YEAR" THIS VERSE, WHICH ENDED THE OLD YEAR, IS ALSO IDEAL FOR STARTING OUT A NEW YEAR WITH EYES OF FAITH. THE WHOLE PASSAGE ASSURES GOD´S PEOPLE THAT HE CARES FORGod Bless you richely
THEIR SETTING, SURROUNDINGS, AND SITUATION IN A FATHERLY WAY. HE CARES FOR THEIR LAND. HIS EYES LOVINGLY AND WITH PROTECTIVE PURPOSE ARE ON THEM FROM
THE FIRST DAY OF THE YEAR TO THE LAST DAY OF THE YEAR. THIS IS A VERSE FOR US. IT ASSURES US THAT GOD´S WATCHFUL CARE CAN BE DEPENDED UPON...
FROM JANUARY 1ST. RIGHT THROUGH UNTIL DECEMBER 31ST., YEAR IN AND YEAR OUT. THE LORD IS TELLING US TODAY JUST WHAT HE TOLD THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL
IN THEIR DAY; "PS:121:4. "HE WHO KEEPS YOU NEITHER SLUMBERS NOR SLEEPS." SEE, OUR HEAVENLY FATHER DOES NOT TAKE DAYS OFF, NOR DOES HE TAKE A VACATION, HE DOES NOT TAKE SICK LEAVE OR LEAVES OF ABSENCE. HIS EYES ARE FOR EVER UPON US. HE CARES FOR US JUST A MUCH AS HE CARED FOR THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL. OUR LAND IS IN HIS FOCUS JUST AS MUCH AS THE LAND PROMISED
TO THE DESCENDANTS OF ABRAHAM. OUR LORD IS CONCERNED FOR OUR HOMES,OUR FAMILIES, OUR TRANSPORTATION,
OUR JOBS, OR PLACES OF WORSHIP, AND OUR SAFETY. NONE OF THESE THINGS ESCAPES HIS SIGHT. YOU AND I MAY HAVE A TENDENCY TO RATE CERTAIN DAYS ABOVE OTHERS. YOU MAY HAVE ALREADY MARKED OUT YOUR CALENDAR.. AND CIRCLED ALL THE SPECIAL EVENTS DURING THE COMING YEAR. BUT THIS PROMISE REASSURES US THAT AS BELIEVERS WE ARE SPECIAL TO GOD; HE KEEPS US IN SPECIAL CONSIDERATION EVERY DAY: "FROM THE BEGINNING OF THE YEAR TO THE VERY END OF THE YEAR"

Ephesians 6:12
For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.
Avoid Wicked Customs
Deuteronomy 18:9-14
9 "When you come into the land which the Lord your God is giving you, you shall not learn to follow the abominations of those nations. 10 There shall not be found among you anyone who makes his son or his daughter pass through the fire, or one who practices witchcraft, or a soothsayer, or one who interprets omens, or a sorcerer, 11 or one who conjures spells, or a medium, or a spiritist, or one who calls up the dead. 12 For all who do these things are an abomination to the Lord, and because of these abominations the Lord your God drives them out from before you. 13 You shall be blameless before the Lord your God. 14 For these nations which you will dispossess listened to soothsayers and diviners; but as for you, the Lord your God has not appointed such for you.
Humility Cures Worldliness
James 4:7-9
7 Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. 8 Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded. 9 Lament and mourn and weep! Let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy to gloom. 10 Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and He will lift you up.
