Experience Never Before(s) in 2009

Someone told me that 2009 is a year of "never before(s)" meaning things will happen this year that have not happened before in your life, possibly never before in history. The election of President Obama as the first black President of the United States is just one example of a "never before" which happened this year.

I have undertaken a major home improvement project for the first time in my life. The professional company I called quoted a $1500 price. Brother man from around the way quoted a $450 price. However, I was able to get the job done for roughly $3. The $3 was the cost of the Gatorade I drank while I did the project myself.

What caused me to shift my intent from paying someone to do a job for me to deciding to do the job myself? Someone suggested/hinted that I could accomplish the project myself. It was their belief in me that caused me to look at me and decide, I can do this. Though I have never done this before, I fixed my mind on God and spoke in faith, "Yes, I can".

Peter had never walked on water before. But one day he did. David had never killed a giant before. But one day he did. Jesus had never turned water into wine before. But one day he did.

These men were able to do these "never before" things because their minds were fixed on God. Who knows what you will accomplish this year? Impossible is a word that does not apply to the believer. With God, all things are possible. Fix your mind on God and make manifest your "never before".

If you have a "never before" you have accomplished or want to accomplish this year, please share in the comments section below.
