Do you think it's ok to still be blowing our New Year horns 17 days after the official Calendar day celebration?
It's really ok! God blows His horn of celebration all year long!
The shofar (שופר) is a Jewish instrument most often made from a ram’s horn, though it can also be made from the horn of a sheep or goat. It makes a trumpet-like sound and is traditionally blown on Rosh HaShanah, the Jewish New Year
God is really up to celebrating the NEW on a regular basis
Learn to BLOW YOUR HORN this year!
I like how the verse says NOW IT SPRINGS UP!
We will all have a "NOW" season all through the year. We need to be alert and wise so we may perceive this NOW thing springing up!
I believe God is good and He will allow us to learn how to TRACE our plans along side of him.
Only if we follow Him and make a commitment to Him in 2014. He has plans for your health, ministry, gifting, children, marriage, finances and much more.
I want to perceive those blessings this year, how about you?
PERCEIVE:
TO BECOME AWARE OR CONSCIOUS OF SOMETHING, TO COME TO REALIZE OR UNDERSTAND SOMETHING. TO LOOK IN A PARTICULAR WAY ON SOMEONE OR SOMETHING!
My first goal for 2014 will be to try harder to create better habits when it comes to looking upon Jesus in a particular way.
Jesus is the word and He became TRUTH and now dwells among us.
Lets look upon the WORD and realize something NEW together throughout 2014.
I personally want the word to CHANGE me.
I desire to become aware of my personal surroundings so that I may PERCEIVE the NEW sketches that God is beginning to TRACE in my life and those around me.
I want to notice his presence faster and become aware of His happenings.
May we together: BEHOLD
DISCERN
DISCOVER
DISTINGUISH THE DIVINE
FEEL
GRASP
LOOK and MARK OUT
OBSERVE AND SEIZE
RECOGIZE
SPOT AND SPY
TAKE
What will be NEW here for 2014 to help you GRAB hold and perceive?
My goal is to create a virtual community in which we come together and commune over Gods word. Unpacking the TRUTH taught that day so we may become aware and discover all the
" NEWS" in 2014.

This plan has a bible reading from old testament and new testament for you each day of the week all through 2014. Please grab a journal and make notes on what the Word is saying to you. God will make words jump off the page and He has a way of making you observe the truth, recognizing and distinguishing a divine truth meant for you and the plans you need to grasp and discover. The word is the way you begin to trace and perceive the DIVINE in your life.
My brightest and most glorious months, days and years have been when I was the most committed to studying the word. Its easy to get sloppy in life... this will have to be another topic for a blog this year!
Each WEDNESDAY I will be writing a devotion and unpacking the truths for that days verses. I hope you join me and also share what the word has spoken to you on that WEDNESDAY or anytime during that week. Place your thoughts in the comment section at the end of the post or by emailing me at Heather@hbministries.com .
I would love to share in the following post how others are beholding and perceiving Gods word!
When we mix GOD + FRIENDS = COMMUNITY
LOOK WHAT ELSE IS NEW:
In the FALL of 2014 my first book/ workbook study called "RUN" will be launched~
The #RUNPROJECT will be amazing, so fresh and well "NEW." It will be launched for the fall studies at my home church Northridge. I am grateful for the leaders and friends within my church that God has placed in my pathway to help get this project running is Gods direction.
I pray God opens doors for RUN to be apart of other churchs!
I would love to come and encourage your ladies to RUN IN SUCH A WAY and leave you with a great 7 week study with 7 DVD teachings!
Hey lets plan a Conference or a retreat for 2015!
See God is always up to NEW and exciting things!
May our divine paths cross as we study and perceive Gods word together.
Lastly, I would love to share something else NEW with you!
