Psalm 65:11-13 (AMP): "You crown the year with Your bounty, and Your paths overflow. I have felt for weeks now the Lord's invitation into a Psalm 65:11-13 reality. Then in the 18th century, it became an English word used to describe GENEROSITY DUE TO SOMEONE'S GOODNESS. It then morphed into the old French word "bonté," which means GOODNESS. Bounty, in the context of generosity, comes from the Latin word "bonus," which means GOOD. ![]() Oddly, though there are many modern-day definitions of this word that do not seem to fit what I felt the Lord was speaking to my spirit regarding this word "bounty," I was thrilled to look at the origin of the word. The word "bounty," when googled, means "something that occurs in plenty or is given in generous amounts." The Father spoke the word "bounty" to me from Psalm 65. If we learn now to stand and position ourselves in that place in Him, nothing will cause us to fall in 2024 or beyond. ![]() (Ephesians 2:6 says that we are seated WITH HIM in these high places.) He is asking us to ARISE AND TO ENDURE in an upright position, our gaze fixed firmly upon His, so that when the evil days approach the 2024 calendar year, we will not be moved. He is calling us to find the reality of high places with Him. He is teaching us to STAND and to display His goodness, no matter what. HOWEVER, praise be to Jesus alone, it can still be a GOOD year, even if it is a challenging year. The Lord has shown me (and others) some very specific things that will occur in the coming years that will not be easy to swallow. Side note: I do not believe that 2024 will be an easy year. In this place, we get to display His glory and honor!Įphesians 6:13 says, "Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand." Here's what I feel the Lord is saying regarding this word "stand": The Lord is teaching us, through His presence (ascension), to maintain an upright position in order to endure and be firmly established in Him. The word "stand" in Psalm 24:3 ("Who shall ascend the hill of the Lord? Who shall stand in His holy place?") is the Hebrew word "qûm" (Strong's h6965), which actually means "to arise," "to raise oneself," "endure," and "to be established." The definition of stand is to "have or maintain an upright position, supported by one's feet" but it also means to "be situated in a particular place or position." Another apt definition is "a rack, base, or piece of furniture for holding, supporting, or displaying something." I googled the definition of both words and gained more understanding of what the Lord was trying to say for 2024. I see that both of these words tie into the true meaning of "ascend" in Psalm 24, and I felt the Lord wanting to take me on an adventure with Him to find more of the fullness of what He is speaking over this next year, especially in the context of standing and bounty. The two words that I heard the Lord speak for 2024 are the words 1) "STAND" and 2) "BOUNTY." Although these clearly mean something to me personally, I also believe that they are what He is saying over the Body of Christ. I love this word, and I absolutely adore Psalm 24! This year, the word that seems to be on many people's lips for 2024 is the word "ascend," which comes from Psalm 24. Every 12 months that we cross into the new calendar year, there is always excitement in having a word for the upcoming year.
