Enjoy a shared bit of wisdom for the new year from my wife, Doreen (wife, mother, grandmother, and great grandmother):
Is setting goals a Biblical concept; or is it a matter of age? Jesus said: “Take no thought for tomorrow”. Matthew 6:34. This year I have no goal, except to take each day gratefully and obediently, knowing that His grace is sufficient. I have never had less assurance about what lies ahead except what Jesus has promised. I see through a glass darkly, but I am promised a brilliant and eternal future… 2026? Who knows? HE knows! That is enough.
“And He said to me, ‘My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.’ Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. 2 Corinthians 12:9
“Let your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have. For He Himself has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.” Hebrews 13:5
“Be strong and of good courage, do not fear nor be afraid of them; for Yehovah your God, He is the One who goes with you. He will not leave you nor forsake you.” Deuteronomy 31:6
God originally gave this promise to Joshua and two verses later emphasized: “Do not fear nor be dismayed.” We are not to fear life and events, but only to fear the Lord. He is the one who goes before us and prepares the way for us to live. Doreen is right, HE knows. Trust Him!
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and especially for Gaza this week. PM Netanyahu returns to Israel today and reports say the Gaza/Egypt border may be opened after he returns home. All of this is evidence of our faithful God who keeps His promises to Israel and to each of us personally.

Why do I use God’s literal covenant Name: Yehovah? Here is a link to the explanation in my book: The Hebrew God Who Has No Name. And here is a link to a great visual from my friend Keith Johnson.

















































Decision Time
8 01 2026While Americans are consumed with news about Venezuela and Minnesota something profound is happening in Iran and Gaza. I believe the first two months of 2026 will witness major prophetic events. Of course the Western hemisphere is important, but let’s focus on the Middle East. The Egypt/Gaza border is about to open, releasing over a million Gaza civilians to flee the war zone for the first time. This will lead to Israel disarming and finally defeating Hamas. At the same time, Iran is on the brink and will finally have regime change. Demonstrations now involve over 130 cities and growing, with reports of even military and security forces defecting. Multiple sources are reporting that the Ayatollah has plans to escape to Russia. Decisions are being made in Jerusalem, Washington, Venezuela, Iran, and many places that will prove to be the fulfillment of God’s plan. It is exciting to be alive at this time to pray in agreement with God.
There have been specific times in history where Yehovah God Himself intervenes to fulfill His prophetic promises. I refer to those times as God “turning the page.” This is such a time. Above human events there is a Divine moment where God’s hand touches earth. Just as Peter recognized Pentecost as: “This is that” which was prophesied by Joel, we are in a “this is that” moment. Last Sunday I spoke at Grace Assembly of God in Wake Forest on the subject: “It’s Time to Turn the Page!” (Here is the video link. Scroll down halfway and the message starts at 37 min.) Don’t miss the time of God’s visitation. Do you see His hand, or are you fearfully only seeing man’s feeble rebellion? As the cliche goes: “I have read the end of the Book. We win!”
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and for the momentous decisions by nations, leaders, and by people.
