Word for 2021 - Remain - Stay.

I ended 2020 by deciding to end the blog. 10 years felt like enough. But with God, one must expect that what is planned can be changed by a word from him.

On January 2nd I started watching a conference from a church in Texas and the first message was titled “Remain in a leaving culture.” Well … it got me thinking.

Was it an answer to the prayer about the blog? And that quickly?

The words “remain and stay” kept coming back so  finally I changed my mind and went back to the blog but with a different approach; There will be more teaching of the Word and maybe less music videos. It all depends on how the Holy Spirit leads.

 First music video 2021 was “Nearer my God to thee”.

When I think back on it now, the song agrees with the words that became the start of 2021 

“Remain –Stay”. 

You might be in a position where you have to decide about your life and your faith. You have many questions. You are tired of opposition. You are in a place where you had never ever thought you would be and you want to get away from it all. What to do?

Here is my word for you in 2021:

Remain in Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior.

Stay closer to God. Cling to him even more.

Read the Word – the Bible!

Ask the Holy Spirit to open upp the Word to you and give you guidance.

 No matter what storms you will go through this year;

Get closer to God!

That is the only safe place to be.

 Here is the link to the message. It starts at 29:51

I wish you all the best for 2021.

And most off all a steadfast faith in God the Father; God the Son and God the Holy Spirit.

Sincerely yours 

Ida
