Day 41 – A New Thing

Are You Tied To Yesterday’s Ashes?

Scripture: Isaiah 43:19 (KJV)
“Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert.”

Highlights:

You’ve stared long enough at dry places.
You’ve cried over what didn’t survive… over doors that closed without warning.

But here comes the word of the Lord:
“I will do a new thing… now it shall spring forth.”

God doesn’t wait for your perfect moment. He moves in power, even in the middle of your mess. Even when it feels too late. Even when all you see is desert.

In this episode, we’re shaking the dust off old expectations and stepping into the river of new beginnings.
Because God isn’t recycling the past…
He’s doing something brand new.

Are You Tied To Yesterday’s Ashes?

If you’ve ever asked, “Lord, when will it be my turn?”
This is your word. This is your day. This is your now.

Listen in… a new thing is already springing forth.

Key Power Points:

🔹 God doesn’t need your old season to bless your new one.
🔹 “Now” is the timing of the Spirit when obedience aligns with surrender.
🔹 Rivers don’t just appear in deserts… they come by divine decree.
🔹 Letting go is the gateway to receiving what’s next.
🔹 If God is doing something new — you can’t stay tied to something expired.


Today’s Prayer:

Lord, I don’t want to miss what You’re doing because I’m still holding on to what You’ve already released.
I give You full permission to break cycles, open new doors, and ignite fresh purpose.
Lead me through this wilderness. Flood my dry places.
Do a new thing in me… and let it begin now.
In Jesus’ name… amen.

Barbara Duffey Hammonds guides The Simple Walk-50 Days Of Light, a series created for those moments when the noise of daily life becomes overwhelming. This isn't about adding another task to your list; it's an invitation to step into a quieter space for a few minutes each day. Across fifty episodes, the podcast offers reflective thoughts that draw from spiritual wisdom, aiming to provide a sense of steadiness and perspective. You'll hear a voice of experience and compassion, focusing on themes of mercy, peace, and inner resilience that feel directly applicable to the complexities of modern living. The structure is deliberate-a manageable, daily companion rather than an indefinite commitment. It fits naturally into a morning routine or an evening wind-down, serving as a touchpoint for personal grounding. While rooted in a faith perspective, the reflections often connect to broader human experiences of doubt, hope, and community, making it relevant for anyone interested in a contemplative pause. The tone is consistently gentle and encouraging, avoiding prescriptive advice in favor of shared exploration. Listeners will find the episodes are concise, yet thoughtfully crafted to leave a lasting impression, encouraging a slower, more considered approach to the day ahead. By framing the journey as a walk, the podcast emphasizes progress over perfection, and light as something to both follow and embody. Barbara’s approach makes profound concepts feel accessible, turning each session into a practical resource for navigating personal and societal unrest with a clearer mind and a softer heart.
