BE FILLED WITH MIGHT AND WISDOM FOR 2016 by Keith & Janet Miller

Hello! Many blessings to you, wonderful friends.
Here we are on the highway of time, making the turn into 2016. Incredible! It seems as if I was just writing this letter for 2015. This year has been a very active year. So much has happened, but at the same time, so much is still to be done. As we enter 2016, the Holy Spirit has shown me some very specific things to ask for and believe for in this season—not only for us as a ministry but also for all of our wonderful friends. The Lord has given me a powerful directive and anointing for 2016 to see the body of Christ live in a fresh empowerment of strength from the might of God and in the wisdom of the Lord. 
In our meetings, we will see incredible moments when the atmosphere will be flooded with the Spirit of might, accompanied by wisdom downloads. In this powerful atmosphere, the Holy Spirit will bring courage and strength to the God-inspired dreams within the hearts of the hearers. The presence of the Lord empowers and strengthens the desires He has placed in our hearts. Many times over the years, I have seen God come like this, and His presence always causes incredible depths of strength and courage to arise in people’s hearts. I have seen the roar of the Lord release His majestic glory to such an extent that everyone in attendance literally began to shout with a voice of triumph. 
In this season, as the Word is ministered and the room is filled with His presence, the Lord will activate greater levels of strength and power in the depths of the hearts of those who are there. We will see a people arise who know their God, who are strong, and who do great exploits (see Dan. 11:32).
What will be amazing will be the quality of the depth of the knowledge and wisdom of the Lord that will be revealed in those precious moments. People will encounter the majestic realm of the Lord. This will activate and establish them in the might, wisdom, and understanding of the seasons and times they are in, and as a result, they will know how to move forward into a season of advancement on destiny’s highway.
Weariness will be replaced with a fresh zeal that is fueled by the might of the Holy Spirit. Fear will be replaced with greater dimensions and depths of the knowledge of the love of Christ. This will cause our root system to grow. The living waters that nourish our roots will never run dry. Wisdom to understand what to do is being released.
When the Lord fills the atmosphere with the Spirit of might, miracles will break out all over. Faith will be ignited in people in a fresh way, and they will grab hold of the promises of the Lord for their lives! In a twinkling of an eye, years of hurt, delays, and opposition will be broken through, and their faces will glow with the Lord’s fresh oil.
Will this happen in every meeting? That is our hope and expectation. That is the atmosphere we will contend for in every meeting. I share this to build your expectation and belief for incredible new levels of the strength of God for your life! 
As we enter 2016, we will be praying several keys from Ephesians 3 over you:
For this reason I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, from whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man.
—Ephesians 3:14–16

Paul, by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, is being very specific about why he is praying. This a specific prayer, and it is to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, so we know it applies to our lives. This is an eternal prayer that carries with it power to impart and activate in whatever era of time it is read and applied. Here, Paul prays for every believer in the Lord Jesus that a specific gift would be released and understood. This gift from the Father is the strengthening of His might by His Spirit in the inner person. And it is measured according to the riches of His glory. When a gift is given, it can only be as good as that which is backing it. I could give you access to my personal checking account to draw out all that you need exactly when you need it. But when my 500 dollars runs out, so does the gift. The gift is only as good as what is backing it. Here Paul says that we can be strengthened by might according to the riches of His glory. In other words, this gift will not run out but will, in fact, increase. What an incredible gift!
It would be like going to the ocean and getting a big bucket of ocean water. Yes, you would have the ocean; yes the bucket would be full; but what is a bucket compared to the entire ocean? The whole ocean is waiting.  In the same way, we can live in perpetual and increasing strength in our inner person according to the riches of His glory. As we go into 2016, I am praying for you to know this perpetual and increasing strength of God according to the riches of His glory.
We are entering 2016 with great expectation for advancement in mighty ways. As we move forward in this season, we are going to take new ground. We must stay fresh in the anointing, which will keep us fresh in inner strength, which will keep us strong in the Lord and His mighty power. As we stay fresh in the strength of the Lord by the might of the Holy Spirit, we will maintain high levels of faith, joy, and confidence. This is vital for us as we begin taking new ground.
We must stay strong in faith in this new season, because as we advance in new levels of destiny we will face obstacles. But as we are strengthened by the might of the Holy Spirit, we will rise up against all obstacles, limitations, and fears. The Lord strengthens us and enables us to rise up against unbelievable odds. The fresh oil or dunmanis of the Lord will also empower us have greater faith and to see the impossible become possible!    
I declare this over you: You will succeed and have great advancement and progress in your divine destiny in 2016! In the words of Paul:
Now to Him who is able to [carry out His purpose and] do superabundantly more than all that we dare ask or think [infinitely beyond our greatest prayers, hopes, or dreams], according to His power that is at work within us.—Ephesians 3:20 AMP  
As you go into the new year, we pray and decree the following faith declarations over you:
·         This strength will empower you to walk out divine destiny.
·         This strength will empower you to believe the impossible is possible
·         This strength will empower you to become who God created you to be and do what He created you to do.
·         This strength will empower you to walk through the open door of your now and let the past be gone.
·         This strength will empower you to say no to every resistance of the enemy against you and your family.
·         This strength will empower you to stay the course and persevere in the perfect plan and purpose of the Father for 2016.
·         This strength will empower you to release courage to others in this coming season.
·         This strength will empower you to be fresh in your spirit and fresh in your walk with the Lord.
·         This strength will empower you to receive fresh inspiration, joy, and confidence from the Lord.
·         This strength will empower you to run and not grow weary.
As we close this year, I would like to ask you to sow your best gift into the work of the Lord. You will be sowing into agreement with the things we have listed for you, but also for the work of the Lord that we will be doing in 2016.  
As a thank you, we will send you a five-CD set of messages, plus a brand new signed Journal of Breakthrough (mailed on January 20, 2016).
The world around us is experiencing increasing uncertainty and unrest. But as believers in Christ, we can be steadfast and ever growing in His love, peace, and joy. The Lord is giving prophetic insight and greater increase of power to see new levels and sustainable breakthroughs in people’s lives, families, churches, businesses, communities, cities, and regions.
As you sow into the ministry, you will also be impacting thousands of lives in 2016. You will be sowing to see Kingdom impact in the following ways: 
·         To see people become born again
·         To see people become equipped, empowered, and activated for advancement in their divine destiny
·         To see people become empowered by the anointing of the Holy Spirit
·         To see families find restoration, reconciliation, and establishment in Him
·         To see people flourish from living in fresh oil on a daily basis
·         To see the raising up of hundreds who are functioning in the breaker anointing
·         To see the manifold wisdom of God released in cities and regions to bring a breakthrough in the heavenlies—so that cities will experience  hundreds getting born again and set free from demonic bondages
·         To see groups and churches flourish and be set ablaze in the glory so that thousands will be born again in their  neighbourhoods and communities throughout the nation
·         To see believers in Jesus live in the  strength of God—the Spirit of might—and experience an increase of faith for the impossible to become possible
·         To train up leaders to function and flow in the river of the Holy Spirit
In our gatherings, our purpose is to bring messages from the Word that empower, equip, and activate people to live in Christ, fully functioning in and by the Holy Spirit so that they will see demonstrations of evidence of the power of God in and through their lives—
·         Evidence of the attributes of Christ in their lives,
·         Evidence of the fruit of the Spirit in their lives, and
·         Evidence of priestly and kingly living in their everyday lives.
As we close out this year, I’m asking you to sow your best gift into the ministry of Stand Firm World Ministries. As we end this year and go into 2016, we really need a big push forward.  Thank you for being part of all of this with us!
 I will close with the words of Jude: “I am writing to all who have been called by God the Father, who loves you and keeps you safe in the care of Jesus Christ. May God give you more and more mercy, peace, and love” (Jude 1:1–2).
As you enter this New Year know that our prayers go with you,
Richest Glory Blessings to you,
 
Keith & Janet
