A Message From The Publisher
“Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart: for I am called by thy name, O LORD God of hosts.—Jeremiah 15:16 KJV

What if our nation could agree on one resolution? This resolution is defined as a pronouncement to do something or to conduct one’s self in a particular positive behavior.
This act would have to come to fruition because of a great resolve from people who acted with selfishness in wanting to serve others some Soul Food. He starved you, and then he gave you manna, a type of foodstuff that you and your ancestors knew nothing about. It was a lesson from the Lord to show us that we need more than groceries to survive — we need the written and spoken Word of God.
Soul Food is more than every seed-bearing plant and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. It’s about shelter when the storms of life rage. In those days Soul Food would keep you safe in His dwelling; it will dwelling; it will cover you in the shelter of His protection and carry you through all hurt, harm and danger.
You will even be clothed in your right mind with the proper Soul Food. There won’t be any need to long for anybody’s belongings.
Even those who no one cares for: the outcast and broken hearted, the poor and misfortune, the sick and shut-in can be restored to good health and wounds can be healed with just the right quantity of Soul Food.
Signs of a diet from the lack of Soul Food are: there will be enormous underground eruptions, food shortages and deadly diseases in an assortment of places, and terrified events will be seen everywhere.
When Soul Food is shared, new leadership abounds that people respect all around the world. People will eagerly comfort others because they have known comfort themselves.
It is true that “man does not live by bread alone.” Jesus answered, “The Scriptures say: `No one can live only on food. People need every word that God has spoken.’ “
Our New Year’s Resolution is that we share some Soul Food, not just collard greens and corn bread or chitterlings and rice. Not even a brisket surrounded with carrots and potatoes in a pot lined with thickly sliced onions broken up into rings. It’s not that kind of Soul Food I’m talking about; it’s Soul Food from heaven.
A lot of people who love scriptures oftentimes quote 2 Chronicles 7:14 “If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land.” However, they seem to forget the verse before that which is the reason for the prayer and the orders to follow: “When I shut up the heavens so that there is no rain, or command locusts to devour the land or send a plague among my people, 2 Chronicles 7:13 NIV
This New Year let us not wait to seek God’s presence. Surely while we are in His presence, peace will abound in All circumstances.
“Dear God in the name of Jesus. Allow us to recognize the calm of your existence while in the storms of life and make us privileged to Your all consuming Love. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
A NEW YEAR IS GOD’S GRACE EVERYDAY
