John Hagee Devotional 1st January 2026, Thursday Message
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE
Behold, I will do a new thing, now it shall spring forth; shall you not know it? I will even make a road in the wilderness and rivers in the desert. Isaiah 43:19
TODAY’S MESSAGE
Happy New Year! Stretching out before us are 365 days of bright promise and divine potential. How will we fill them up?
By diving in! Some approach the shallow end of the pool, hold onto the handrail, and ease into the water. Others run straight at the deep end, shrieking with joy, and cannonball in to splash up a massive tidal wave.
DIVE IN to 2026! Keep your head up and your eyes on Him, take a giant leap of faith (hold your nose if you must!), and anticipate the splash.
DIVE IN to Prayer! The Bible is crowded with people who needed Someone bigger than themselves, and it made them bold. Ask, seek, knock, and receive. Be audacious in prayer.
DIVE IN to God’s Word! This is the key way that He speaks to us. Discover Him and His will in those pages. He will show you great and mighty things.
DIVE IN to Service! You were designed to serve others, created with good works in mind. If the world will know us by our love, how is His love demonstrated in your life?
Experience refreshing joy and messy freedom. Everyone around you will get soaked, and your exuberance will encourage them to leap too. DIVE IN! The water is fine!
BLESSING
Heavenly Father, no more standing on the edge for me! Make me brave! May 2026 be the year I take the leap of faith and grow in grace and the knowledge of the Lord Jesus. I offer up my life again as a living sacrifice to You. I am diving in! In Jesus’ name…amen.
