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.

My name is Desiree, and I’m writing to you for some sort if help. From a young girl I always enjoyed been in GOD’S presence, I always felt an usual putting towords the things of GOD. I know stuff before it happens, I sometimes hear the voice of GOD telling what I should do. I’ve tried so hard to run away and not wanna know things because of the pain and the rejection I experience from been different. My life is in constant turmoil, sometimes I feel like a female JOB. I don’t know how to harness this gift, as much as I would love to enjoy this gift , I feel like it’s a curse. Where I’m from no one really knows how to help me harness this gift, so I’ve just given up. I can’t let anyone in cause I’m able to read their thoughts loudly, behind their false smiles. I kinda given up on the human race and I hate myself for it. Church don’t do it for me anymore. I find myself drifting into pratices I mabe shouldn’t be, like listening to meditation and trying to understand what the Buddhist know that I should know. Please help me. From a distraught me to you. I hope this reaches you. Love Desiree
I thank you so much for all the prayers you made for me and I really appreciate the present of God in your life. All the prophecy was accurate. I encountered the holy spirit last night it was so real. Thank you for everything may God continue to bless and increase you from glory to glory Grace to Grace

I am richly blessed and spirit lifted. Am so glad to be in this medium.
With love. Jafiada Hall
Thank you so much for these words. It literally saved me from lack of hope for something better to come. I’ve been struggled to keep my head over water in my life. I have kind of given up and been very very sad for a long time. I didnt want to believe good things for this year because of disappointments. But in a magic way (Gods spirit of course) I felt a hope coming up again, and in a special way when you mentioned the gold – I´ve got a prophetic word of a gold nugget from someone in 2018. And my name is Victoria so it hit me very much when I read “the historic goldmines of Victoria”. A confirmaiton of a gold nugget. I have written all these prophetic words down and read them every day now.
(Maybe it sounds a bit weird some of it – Im danish and dont write english perfect ;-))
