Upon arriving home from our family's holiday activities, this morning I heard these words loudly in my spirit, “More in 24”.
Immediately I prayed, in my heart: "Lord, I don't want to be one of those that declare a rhyme for the time… in the flesh and not of your Holy Spirit… So, please tell me if this is from you, and tell me clearly what you mean by More in 24.”
Within seconds an old hymn I knew as a little girl came to my mind, and I knew that I was indeed hearing the Holy Spirit in this regard. The lyrics tell it all, and I will place them here, along with a recording of my singing them today, so you can follow along and sing them with me.

If you don't have sound to hear and sing the song linked above… still view or sing the lyrics for yourself, from the photo of the hymn that I have placed below, and then after that, read on. Better yet, print this out!
My excitement is so high right now, as I realize how wonderful 2024 will be! Not because conditions will be perfect, or situations ideal. Not because of material goods or circumstances being more. But because our God is going to reveal Himself to us in a greater measure! A measure beyond our knowing!
The scripture that has come to mind today is a familiar one to me, for it is within a song I wrote called “Ephesians 3”, and it is found in Ephesians 3:20-21, and reads:
“Now unto him that is ABLE to do EXCEEDING ABUNDANTLY ABOVE all we ask or think, according to the power THAT WORKETH IN US…unto Him be glory IN THE CHURCH by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.”
Read that again, please.
The bolded words exceedingly abundantly above mean “MORE”, don't they?
They sure do!!
More than we can even imagine… (i.e. ask or think!)
Now, Church, do not miss what comes next in the verse:
This “MORE” is going to be according to the power that WORKETH IN US!
And who is US?
THE CHURCH!!
You and Me, Brothers and Sisters!
It infers this with the words “be glory IN THE CHURCH” by Christ Jesus.
It is our time to shine, brothers and sisters in Christ!
Better said… “It is the time for Christ Jesus to shine IN US!”
Are you ready?
This song holds the KEY for what God is saying to YOU AND ME!
Go to the Link above and listen or sing each verse again.
Yes, please do this! It is not wasted time!
My prayer for you is that YOU
will realize
that drawing closer to the Lord YOURSELF
will put Him ON THE THRONE OF YOUR LIFE…
WHERE CHRIST CAN THEN REIGN SUPREME
and THEN accomplish greater and greater things
THROUGH His power that then works through you!
I am now going to say but ONE THING MORE! This, too, is from the Spirit of God.
MORE in 24 is yours… IF you will grasp the truth of this… and ALSO REALIZE the “simple truth” that LIFE is to be MORE ABOUT JESUS than you…
Yes, pause and think about what Holy Spirit just said. I just did.
Life is to be MORE ABOUT JESUS than you.
Then, you will see God's Word fulfilled This Year in YOUR LIFE.
In Jesus Name,
AMEN!
