Year of Lengths and Widths

When 2009 entered, Gen asked me what declaration I have for the year. I was caught off guard. I only always declare that every year is the Year of the Lord! Tama naman dba?

Nonetheless, he encouraged me to declare one word or phrase that would be the highlight of the year (given that even the smallest details of the time is God's). These were our declarations:
2009 - Higher Ground (Gen)
2009 - Conquest (Rej)
2010 - Breakthrough (Gen)
2010 - God-Displays (Rej)
2011 - Beaulah / Isaiah 62 (Gen + Rej)

God has been truly gracious this year. We married (and more). We can testify of purity and grace. We have received so much blessing. We had growing cells and disciples. We are having financial breakthrough (the breakthrough part is in the giving actually). We traveled. And we continue to believe. Who knows what God has prepared for us to give and do.

For 2012, we received this Word:
¹⁴ And the LORD said to Abram, after Lot had separated from him: “Lift your eyes now and look from the place where you are—northward, southward, eastward, and westward; ¹⁵ for all the land which you see I give to you and your descendants^[b] forever. ¹⁶ And I will make your descendants as the dust of the earth; so that if a man could number the dust of the earth, then your descendants also could be numbered. ¹⁷ Arise, walk in the land through its length and its width, for I give it to you.” Genesis 13:14-17 NKJV

We have dreams. We are expectant. We will fully obey. And we only believe in the Lord Almighty to do His work in and through us. To Him be all the glory already!
