Words from Cindy Jacobs for 2009


Words from Cindy Jacobs' website for year 2009:

Dear Friend,



As I have been seeking the Lord for a word for you for 2009 one seems to leap out to me in my spirit. It is the word transition. This is a season where we are going from the old to the new—from old wine to new wine. What do I mean by new wine? From what doesn't work to what does work or from the non-productive to the productive.

It seems as I am sharing with Christians around the world there is a frustration with the old. People know that what they are doing isn't producing the results they want to see but they don't know what to do.


This is what I am sensing: God is forming a new wineskin for your life that is a good fit. In order to do so, you are being pressed into the new. No one likes that feeling. It is uncomfortable and, at times, stressful. Stress can actually be productive.. It is when we get into (dis)stress that it becomes non-productive.

One of the most difficult things to do in the midst of pressure is to still your spirit so God can speak to you. At times, when we are in that condition, God will use the prophetic voice to come alongside you in your distress to comfort you and help you.

This is what I am hearing God say for you, "You are coming into the most creative time of your life. The Holy Spirit, the Creator of the world, is going to fill you with His Spirit in a way beyond your understanding to help you go to a new level of anointing. He is going to fill you with His new wine to overflowing. Do not let fear paralyze you and stop up the flow He is wanting to release within you."



Here is a strategy to get to the new places God wants you to go:

1. Pray with others
Take time to surround yourself with friends who will corporately press into the new places that God has for you through prayer. The Bible says that the new wine is found in the cluster (Isaiah 65:8). Revelation is found as you pray with others.

2. Search the Word
God wants you to have fresh bread for a new season. God is going to feed you with wisdom and revelation to give you strength to go through your transition.

3. Don't panic!
Satan is hitting your panic button and having a good time doing so! Stand up to him and resist his game. Hit the faith walk instead of panic.

4. Trust God
Speak God's promises out loud to still your soul from panic. Tell your mind that it will not control your spirit with thoughts of fear and desperation (Proverbs 3:5-6).

The truth is this: The only thing that can negate the will of God for your life is listening to Satan and following his "panic advice" rather than God's word..
