YHWH Springs Forth New Rivers in Desert | 3,650 Minutes of Prayer

This is Day Fifty-Four of 3650 Minutes of Prayer. Today was a day of powerful interceding focused on the revelation that we serve YHWH, the God of new beginnings who creates ways where there are no ways and makes rivers flow in the desert. We centered our hearts on Isaiah 43:18–20, where the Lord instructs us not to remember the former things or consider the things of old. We recognized that when we focus too much on the past—our old struggles, our old sins, or even being too familiar with how God used to work—we are unable to recognize the new thing He is starting right now.The essence of our interceding was a call to return to a place of awe, as Moses knew the ways of the Lord yet beheld His glory afresh (Exodus 33:13, 34:29-30). We prayed against the spirit of familiarity, reminding ourselves that YHWH is not bound by the past, for "we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory" (2 Corinthians 3:18). We interceded for a fresh start and a new look at our Father—the same way we looked at Him when we first gave our lives to Christ and knew He was every single thing we needed.We affirmed our identity as new creatures (2 Corinthians 5:17), a royal priesthood (1 Peter 2:9), the temple of the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 6:19), seated with Christ in heavenly places (Ephesians 2:6), and children of God testified by the Spirit of God (Romans 8:16).We now yield to the new beginnings YHWH is bringing forth in our lives. We are interceding for the Lord to start doing things that no man has ever done, creating streams in the dry places of our journey (Isaiah 43:20-21). We declare that we will not lose our wonder but will look to Him with fresh eyes, believing that He has given us all things that pertain to life and godliness (2 Peter 1:3). We pray that as He does these new things, our lives shall be a praise that confesses Jesus is God.Interceding & Revelation Scriptures (NKJV)Isaiah 43:18–20 "Do not remember the former things, nor consider the things of old. 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. The beast of the field will honor Me..."2 Corinthians 5:17–18 "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new. Now all things are of God..."1 Peter 2:9 "But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people..."2 Peter 1:3 "as His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness..."Ephesians 2:6 "...and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus."1 Corinthians 3:16 "Do you not know that you are the temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwells in you?"Romans 8:16 "The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God."There is One true God, the Creator of all things, revealed in three persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. There is One God and One Spirit Who has redeemed us all. I am Mathew Sekanjako, a believer in Christ Jesus (Y’shua HaMashiach), the one Son of God. I serve and confess God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. This interceding is offered in faith, in obedience, and in love, for all who will listen.
