Here are 3 prophetic words for 2019 to meditate on, as you stand on the threshold of a New Year.
From the outset, I believe the Lord is encouraging us to focus on His perspective—the Bible says our Father’s heart and intent towards us is good (Jer 29:11).
God is for you; He is not against you.
He is with you; you are not alone.
Your Father knows the path that you take and He has prepared His provision for you ahead of time.
Perhaps you have some challenges ahead, as you face 2019.
As you stand on the brink of your New Year, don’t look at circumstances ahead as a problem to solve. Look beyond them:
- See a gift from your Heavenly Father to unwrap.
3 Prophetic Words for 2019
Prophetic Word #1: 2019 is a Year of Discovery
‘Discovery’ means something is already waiting—it already exists and is awaiting you.
2019 is going to be a year characterized by discovery of the ‘more’ God has made available for you.
Discoveries lead to breakthroughs, inventions and innovations. Discovery leads to progress. During a season of discovery, you may find that you are out of your comfort zone.
- You may feel as though you have marched ‘off the map’, like explorers of old
But God knows your location.
And there is something of great value your Father has prepared for you to discover.
You Will Discover the Richness of What God Has for You
When we visited the historic goldfields of Victoria, I was reminded that gold cannot be created:
- Gold can only be discovered
People have tried over the centuries to discover some secret formula to create gold—to no avail.
The amount of gold on the earth is limited. But the amount of gold in Heaven is endless.
- Gold represents that which is eternal; gold is seen in the streets and building materials of Heaven!
- Gold is compared to that which is most valuable: Scripture. Your faith. Wisdom.
- And gold is found in God’s intimate Presence, the place of His glory and holiness
Discovery means that in 2019, God has more revelation for you. He has made Heavenly resources and encounters available to you.
Your Father cares for your needs, great and small.
He is immensely practical. As 2019 dawns, place every physical need in the hand of your King.
Hear your Father say, ‘I am the source of all you need. I am releasing you from the fear of lack of supply!’ (Psalm 23:1)
Prophetic Word #2: 2019 is a Year of Release
“Do not remember the former things, Nor consider the things of old. Behold, I will do a new thing, Now it shall spring forth; Shall you not know it?” (Isaiah 43:18-19, NKJV)
2019 is a year of release from past pain and outdated, limiting definitions that have held you back.
In Genesis 26, Isaac was on his own voyage of discovery.
Just as gold in the earth is limited, so is groundwater.
- And Isaac’s servants discovered water in the land, only to have the wells contended for by locals
Isaac could have camped in that place of dispute—he could have continued to contest for his rights—but he chose to release it and move on.
It’s time to release the past! God has new wells of replenishment, favor and supply for you to discover.
Isaac was able to release and move on because He trusted God: ‘And he moved from there and dug another well, and they did not quarrel over it. So he called its name Rehoboth, because he said,
“For now the Lord has made room for us, and we shall be fruitful in the land.”’ (Gen 26:22, NKJV)
2019 is a year in which you will know, ‘God has made room for me here’. He is opening new wells of opportunity and provision.
As you start 2019, forgive and bless those who have wounded you.
- Be released from the unkindness of those who have not believed in you.
Declare, “My God, You are sufficient for me! You are my Father and you are also the Righteous Judge! I ask you to move on my behalf. I praise You now, that You are working on my behalf to bring restoration.”
Prophetic Word #3: 2019 is a Year of a Turning Point
A ‘turning point’ is a moment or season in time when a significant change takes place—one that leads to new and greater things.
In Deuteronomy, we learn of a time in which Israel were doing a lot of ‘turning’, yet they were not making progress.
They were not discovering new horizons.
But that was set to change.
‘Then we turned and journeyed into the wilderness of the Way of the Red Sea, as the Lord spoke to me, and we skirted Mount Seir for many days. “And the Lord spoke to me, saying: You have skirted this mountain long enough; turn northward.”’ (Deut 2:1-2, NKJV)
‘You have circled this mountain long enough!’ (NASB)
The big picture was that the Israelites had been traveling in the wilderness for 38 years. But in verse 1, Moses describes it as ‘many days’.
- Both for the short and the longer term, the nation had been stuck in a holding pattern
Anticipate areas that have frustrated you for a long period of time, being resolved.
As you come ‘around the mountain’ for the last time, you discover a horizon that wasn’t available to you before.
Trials of the past are bearing fruit. Your discernment and insight has been clarified and sharpened.
And in 2019, Jesus will be the only explanation for what people see taking place in and through you.
Prophetic Activation for the New Year
If this word has resonated with you, I encourage you to time to pray about and meditate on these words (especially the Scriptures) along with other things the Lord is speaking to you. The 3 words can be considered separately, over 3 days or 3 weeks.
Bible References for ‘Year of Discovery’:
Be inspired by those who went on a voyage of discovery in Scripture, including Abraham (Gen 12:1) and Naomi and Ruth (Ruth 1).

Helen, these prophetic words are exactly what I needed and correspond with what God has been telling me! I’ve been a pastor for 25 years, and I’m planting a new church. I’m super excited. Thank you for listening to God!
Hi Terry, that’s awesome!
I’ve been listening to Pastor Martin Steel’s series on Kingdom Culture and the verse in Genesis 2:11 really popped out at me. The names (meanings in the Hebrew) of the rivers and the treasure waiting in the land… very inspiring and just came to mind as I read your comment.
Hi Helen,
I looked up the Hebrew for the rivers in Genesis 2. WOW! I believe you mentioning that was prophetic concerning my planting this new church (KING JESUS CHURCH). Thank you for your obedience in operating in your gifts. I will be taking your 3 courses starting in January. Super excited!

All 3 of these prophetic words are for me. I’m encouraged that 2019 is a year of Discovery, Release and Turning point for me. All the pain and hurt will be released and I will walk in my prosperity in 2019. There will be no more lack and all of my needs will be met and overflow will be encountered. Hallelujah
Beautiful…I praise God with you Dorothy, may joy be your portion as you enter 2019 with a sense of expectancy
Helen you are always spot on for the season. I am in the Hall of Tranistion and will continue to stand a seek his Face. Thank you for the encouragement!
Amen Robin, believing with you for greater clarity in the discovery of what Father has for you in 2019 and beyond
Thanks Helen your prophetic message has recalled a dream I had the other night where myself and another were called into a meeting to receive an inheritance, there would be no usual delays as the son had given permission for the inheritance to be released. I am seeking God as to the significance of the dream, your prophetic messages speak into this. Thank you, God bless
Wow that’s very significant Jacki! Even on a general basis of entering more fully into your inheritance in Christ… ‘If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.’ (Gal 3:29)
A few days ago I had a dream of me looking for the horizon. I was desperate to see it, and all I could see was mountains. I wondered if this dream was from God or not, but now you have confirmed it. I can only hope that I will get to see it this year. It has indeed been a very hard and confusing season for me.Thank you, Hellen! For your faithfulness to God and sharing the fruits with us.
That’s awesome Daniela! New day, fresh vision.
