The New Work that God is Doing

Isaiah 43: 18-21

Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past.
See, I am doing a new thing!
Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?
I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.
The wild animals honor me, the jackals and the owls,
because I provide water in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland,
to give drink to my people, my chosen, the people I formed for myself
that they may proclaim my praise.

Compared to the work of the past, the present work is the new work. In addition, compared to the work of the present, the work of the future is the new work.

God carries out new work at each time to fulfill His Will and to fulfill our hopes. New things bring hope and happiness to individuals, families, and nations. Therefore, do not dwell on the past but think of the new works that God is doing.

When establishing a new history, God proclaims the new Word through the Messiah. At the First Coming, Jesus introduced many new concepts and teachings that could not be found in the Old Testament. As such, although Jesus was surely doing God’s new work for the new history, he was scoffed at, rejected, beaten, slandered, persecuted, hated, and ultimately, even crucified. Despite the ignorance of human beings, God can only give the new Word and reveal the hidden things at the set time. So when that time comes, whether human beings realize it or not, the Holy Son certainly returns to complete the new work that God had planned.

Therefore, when it comes to God’s new work, we must recognize it, accept it, and carry it out without delay. In addition, we must correctly discern and do only what’s necessary. We must not just work blindly without thinking.

The important work that we must absolutely do at this time is to beautifully adorn our spirits and to become fundamentally transformed by taking action on the Word of God. The Holy Spirit will inspire us and guide us in the proper direction as we carry out God’s great new work. Therefore, boldly take action and advance the Will of God!
