He can restore to you what the devil has stolen. He can bring you out of lack and into prosperity. He can heal your body, minister to your family and solve problems that look totally unsolvable. That's why He's called "the God of peace." In Hebrew the word peace is shalom. It means "whole, undamaged, and intact, with nothing missing and nothing broken." And it describes what God can do for you. When you put your faith in Him, He will bring His peace, wholeness and BLESSING to every part of your life. When you give Him the opportunity, "The God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet" (Romans 16:20, New Living Translation). I can conˆrm this from personal experience because He's done it for me. I remember one year in particular, for instance, when our ministry went through some prolonged ˆnancial diŠculties. They dragged on for a number of months and showed no signs of letting up. We knew the devil was behind the situation, so when it continued through one year and threatened to stretch into the next, we took our stand on the Word of God. By faith we started declaring that things were going to change. We started saying that we would see a ˆnancial turnaround and it would be a year of ˆnancial freedom. We didn't stop there, either. We also set our faith on having a big year in other ways. I started calling it a year of fullness, health and a fresh anointing. I declared it would be a year in which Ken and I, and all our ministry Partners, would step into more of what God has called us to do. Sure enough, those things came to pass. God did exactly what we believed for and confessed, not because we are more special than anyone else but because, according to the Bible: "Whosoever shall say…and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith." (Mark 11:23) "Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof." (Proverbs 18:21) "So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it." (Isaiah 55:11) Those verses will work for anyone who will Did you, like many others, make New Year's resolutions with every intention of seeing great change in your life? Or are you still trying to decide what kind of year you want this to be? If so, I have a suggestion for you: Why don't you stir up your faith and believe God for this to be a turnaround year—a year when everything in your life that's not right gets turned around to be right! You can have that kind of year, you know. No matter how impossible it might appear to be right now, no matter how massive the problems you're facing might seem, with God all things are possible. He is a big God and He is well able to work miracles in your life this year. A Supernatural by Gloria Copeland What are you expecting this new year to be like? Turnaround Year bonus article
