Here are some verses for this message: Romans 4 Abraham Justified by Faith 4 What then can we say that Abraham, our physical ancestor,[a] has found? 2 If Abraham was justified[b] by works, he has something to brag about—but not before God.[c] 3 For what does the Scripture say? Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him for righteousness.[d] 4 Now to the one who works, pay is not considered as a gift, but as something owed. 5 But to the one who does not work, but believes on Him who declares the ungodly to be righteous,[e] his faith is credited for righteousness. David Celebrating the Same Truth 6 Likewise, David also speaks of the blessing of the man God credits righteousness to apart from works: 7 How joyful are those whose lawless acts are forgiven and whose sins are covered! 8 How joyful is the man the Lord will never charge with sin![f] The Promise Granted through Faith 13 For the promise to Abraham or to his descendants that he would inherit the world was not through the law, but through the righteousness that comes by faith.[i] 14 If those who are of the law are heirs, faith is made empty and the promise is canceled. 15 For the law produces wrath. And where there is no law, there is no transgression. 16 This is why the promise is by faith, so that it may be according to grace, to guarantee it to all the descendants—not only to those who are of the law[j] but also to those who are of Abraham’s faith. He is the father of us all 17 in God’s sight. As it is written: I have made you the father of many nations.[k] He believed in God, who gives life to the dead and calls things into existence that do not exist. 18 He believed, hoping against hope, so that he became the father of many nations[l] according to what had been spoken: So will your descendants be.[m] 19 He considered[n] his own body to be already dead (since he was about 100 years old) and also considered the deadness of Sarah’s womb, without weakening in the faith. 20 He did not waver in unbelief at God’s promise but was strengthened in his faith and gave glory to God, 21 because he was fully convinced that what He had promised He was also able to perform. 22 Therefore, it was credited to him for righteousness.[o] 23 Now it was credited to him was not written for Abraham alone, 24 but also for us. It will be credited to us who believe in Him who raised Jesus our Lord from the dead. 25 He was delivered up for[p] our trespasses and raised for[q] our justification.[r] His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue, by which have been given to us exceedingly great and precious promises, that through these you may be partakers of the divine nature. 2 Peter 1:3–4 If you are ever in Bay City, TX, make sure to check out High Five Church.

In this message Caleb will preach on three 20:21 verses in the Bible John 20:21 (Peace) Exodus 20:21 (Close to God) and 2 Chronicles 20:21 (Victory through worship). Do you have to make a New Year’s Resolution before New Year’s? Well perhaps that is true, but I believe that this is still important to make a goal even if it is January already. In fact, today by the end of this video I want to you have written down three goals. These can be three goals that you want to do this year. For me I believe that it is not too late to start a New Years goal. ​John Maxwell once said, “A great leader's courage to fulfill his vision comes from passion, not position.” What are you passionate about? Whenever we see a need for something, we need to see an opportunity. This can be God using us to be His hands and feet. ​Say this out loud, under your breath, I want a vision from God. When we seek God, we will find Him. When you seek the Lord, He will guide you. You may say, well I’m just not sure what God wants me to do this year. Well just do something until you figure it out. If you don’t know where to work, just work on getting a job or work at a temporary job. Later you can move to a different and better company. ​Proverbs 29:18 tells us, “18 Where there is no vision, the people are unrestrained, But happy is one who keeps the Law.”Another translation says, “the people perish” without a vision. Make a goal to read the Bible in a year. Whenever I read the Scriptures, I am filled with joy. It is also important to write things down. When we see things written down, we are able to remember them better. Some of the best people that shop at H-E-B are the ones who take a photo of their fridge and pantry. They can zoom in and remember what they need. Having a list will help us keep the vision on our mind. ​Having a fresh vision is important. I recently order a box of Wheaties to place in the upstairs game room at our church. I figured it would look really cool. I found one with Michael Jordan on it. It was perfect. It was from 1990 and is now 30 years old. When I got it, I noticed it was making some sound when I shook it. Yes it still contained the cereal on the inside. The owner had kept the food in the box. It was never opened. If I were to get a bowl and eat that cereal, It would probably taste horrible. This is a reminder for me that just as we need fresh food, we need fresh vision. ​This is a Biblical principle as well because this is what happened with the Israelites were given manna. God sent bread from the skies and they would only keep what they needed for the day. In the same way God has grace for us every day. Let us wake up and acknowledge the supply of the Lord. ​Success does not always happen immediately. It happens through habit and the work of God. When we are with God, we do not have to be afraid. We can enjoy the Lord and how good He is. ​So begin today to decide that the first week in January will not be the only time that you follow your goal. Take time today to write out three goals. Keep them reasonable, avoid general goals, and make them specific. If you are ever in Bay City, TX, make sure to check out High Five Church. We are a grace-based non-denominational church.

​When starting the New Year, some choose to read the Bible as their New Years resolution. Yet some books can be hard to understand. When we read through the Bible we will come across things are relevant for our lives today even if we do not realize it. Leviticus is a difficult Book to read. It doesn’t have any heroic stories like David, Esther, or Daniel. It lists many laws for the Israelites under the law. One amazing part of the book of Leviticus is what is called the year of Jubilee. ​When is the year of Jubilee? It happens in the fiftieth year. Numbers are important to God. Five is the number of grace. God created the Earth, and then on the Seventh day He rests. God institutes a law for everyone to rest on the seventh day. They take seven times seven, this equals 49, then on the fiftieth year they rest. This year is a year of three things rest, restoration, and freedom. ​This was a time where the land would rest. Land would be restored to the owner. All debts were forgive and all labor was to stop for one year. Slaves could rejoice because they would be set free. This is all an image of our Savior. Jesus is our Jubilee. He is the one who sets the captives free and gives life to the world. Today as Christians we can be thankful that our sin debt has been paid. We are forever forgiven. ​This was also a time of celebration. In Leviticus 25:9 says, “You shall then sound a ram’s horn abroad on the tenth day of the seventh month; on the Day of Atonement you shall sound a horn all through your land.” This word for, “rams horn” in the Hebrew is the word, “teruw`ah” which is, “of the Jubile”. The rams horn is a picture of Jesus. Typically to get a ram’s horn, the animal must have died. In the same way, Jesus is the ram that died for us. Because of His death, the death of the ram, we are able to hear the sound of the Shofar. When this trumpet plays ​I am believing that this year will be a year where we are refilled and refueled. Hear the Shofar in the air and praise the Lord for our rest, restoration, and freedom. May we all pray to have a year of Jubilee. When we are placing our trust in God we will have a happy New Year!
