A FEW YEARS BACK I CAME ACROSS A TELEVISION NETWORK SPECIFICALLY DESIGNATED FOR GOOD OLE BACK IN THE DAY TV SHOWS THAT ARE NO LONGER AIRING. I WAS SO EXCITED TO SEE SOME OF MY FAVORITES FROM WHEN I WAS A CHILD. SOME OF THESE SHOWS WERE CANCELLED DUE TO LOW RATINGS AND SOME JUST FINISHED OUT THEIR SEASON CONTRACT.
ALL IN ALL NO MATTER WHAT THE REASON FOR THE SHOW TO NO LONGER AIR, THE RERUNS BROUGHT BACK GOOD MEMORIES AND KEPT THE SHOW ALIVE. RERUNS ARE SPECIAL. THEY KEEP THE CHARACTERS IN FRONT OF YOU. EVEN TO THE NEXT GENERATION WHO MAY NOT HAVE EVEN BEEN BORN WHEN THESE SHOWS WERE AIRING, RERUNS INTRODUCE AND KEEP THE SHOWS FRESH.
THIS MADE ME THINK ABOUT HOW RERUNS CAN BE VERY SIMILAR TO THE TIMES WE THINK OF GOD’S GOODNESS AND HIS FAITHFULNESS IN OUR LIVES. I KNOW I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE THAT CAN TESTIFY THAT HE HAS DONE SO MANY WONDERFUL THINGS THIS YEAR ALONE NOT EVEN COUNTING DOWN THROUGH THE YEARS.
IN GOD’S KINGDOM THERE WILL ALWAYS BE GOOD OLE RERUN MEMORIES IF YOU TAKE A MINUTE AND REFLECT ON WHAT HE HAS DONE AND WHO HE IS. GOD’S CHARACTER IS CONSISTENT AND HE WILL NEVER CANCEL HIMSELF OUT OF YOUR LIFE. HIS SEASONAL CONTRACT NEVER ENDS…IT MAY LOOK DIFFERENT FROM SEASON TO SEASON, BUT IT IS ETERNAL AND HE IS THE SAME GOD. THERE WILL ALWAYS BE A NEXT IN GOD BECAUSE HE IS A PROGRESSIVE GOD WHO WANTS THE BEST FOR US. ANOTHER THING I LOVE IS THAT HE IS NOT PUTTING ON A SHOW FOR US, HIS RELATIONSHIP IS TRUE…IT IS REAL…IT IS SURE….IT IS PURE LOVE.
SO AS WE CLOSE OUT ANOTHER CALENDAR YEAR AND AS WE ARE PLANNING AND LOOKING FORWARD TO MOVING INTO THE NEXT GOD HAS FOR US IN THE NEW YEAR, LET’S NOT FORGET WHAT HE HAS ALREADY DONE. LET’S NOT FORGET HIS GOOD CHARACTER IN WHO HE IS. TAP INTO HEAVEN’S NETWORK CHANNEL AND KEEP RERUNNING WHO HE HAS BEEN TO YOU THIS YEAR THROUGH EVERY TRANSITION AND EVERY SEASON. WE CAN CELEBRATE AND BE THANKFUL THAT HE HAS REMAINED OUR FAITHFUL GOD. RERUN HIM SO MUCH THAT THE NEXT GENERATION WILL COME TO KNOW WHO HE IS AND WHAT HE HAS DONE SO THEY MAY FALL IN LOVE TOO.
I ENCOURAGE YOU AGAIN THAT WHILE YOU WAIT TO MOVE INTO THE NEW THING GOD IS DOING, GO AHEAD AND LIVE OFF THE RERUNS….WORSHIP HIM……THANK HIM.
PRAYER: GOD YOU ARE TOO GOOD. YOU ARE SO WONDERFUL AND I GIVE YOU THE GLORY TODAY. THANK YOU FOR BRINGING ME INTO THE END OF A YEAR OF BLESSINGS AND FAVOR. I KNOW I LOST SOME THINGS AND SOME PEOPLE…BUT THROUGH IT ALL YOU HAVE BEEN A FAITHFUL GOD AND THROUGH IT ALL YOU HAVE REMAINED. I WILL CONTINUE TO BLESS YOU AS I PREPARE AND WAIT FOR THE NEW THING YOU ARE DOING IN MY LIFE IN THIS UPCOMING YEAR. I AM EXCITED AND I AM READY. YOUR PROMISES ARE SURE THEY ARE YES AND AMEN. I WILL NOT ALLOW DISCOURAGEMENT TO TAKE HOLD OF ME, I WILL RERUN AND RECALL THE GOOD THINGS THE PURE THINGS THE THINGS THAT I KNOW TO BE TRUE, HONEST, AND OF A GOOD REPORT…BECAUSE I TRUST YOU. IN JESUS NAME…AMEN.
