"In the beginning God created the Heaven and the earth. And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. And God said, Let there be light: and there was light." (Gen 1:1-3, KJV) It is a new year and a new beginning. To be precise it the 20th day of the first month in the year of the Lord, two thousand and eighteen. And with this new year have come a lot of changes - positive and negative which is making it difficult for a lot of persons to cope or find their feet in this new year. I have the strongest feeling in my spirit that so many persons are yet to get settled and get started for the new year. A lot of persons have had their wonderful plans for the new year shattered by bad news or unexpected changes in political and economic status. As a matter of fact, a lot of persons are having a terrible rough start. To some people, the year 2018 is like a terrible nightmare which they are waiting to wake up from. But I have a message from the Lord for you today. Are you having a rough start? I am going to show you a formula for turning your rough start into a glorious result. .
Just like you, when God set out to create the heavens and the earth, He had a very rough start. The earth was without form and void. In other words, the earth was shapeless, empty, undirected and seemingly good for nothing. And not just that, the whole surface was covered with darkness.
It is hard to imagine that anything begun by God will be covered by darkness. But that was the reality at that time. What did God do? God got to work ... using His word. He started by declaring His word, "Let there be light!", and the Bible said, "And there was light". Today, I don't know the rough start that you are having, if you can believe God and declare His word over that situation, you will experience a great and miraculous turn around. We all know the rest of the story of creation in Genesis. It reads like a monologue of "And God said". God kept declarng His word over each situation and they kept changing until we got this beautiful world we all live in today. You too can do the same. Are you having a rough start? Start by declaring God's word over your situation! Visualize the result you want, and call them forth in faith using God's word.
