Fear not, Earth! Be glad and celebrate! GOD has done great things. Fear not, wild animals! The fields and meadows are greening up. The trees are bearing fruit again: a bumper crop of fig trees and vines! Children of Zion, celebrate! Be glad in your GOD. He’s giving you a teacher to train you how to live right— Teaching, like rain out of heaven, showers of words to refresh and nourish your soul, just as he used to do. And plenty of food for your body—silos full of grain, casks of wine and barrels of olive oil. * * * “I’ll make up for the years of the locust, the great locust devastation— Locusts savage, locusts deadly, fierce locusts, locusts of doom, That great locust invasion I sent your way. You’ll eat your fill of good food. You’ll be full of praises to your GOD, The God who has set you back on your heels in wonder. Never again will my people be despised. You’ll know without question that I’m in the thick of life with Israel, That I’m your GOD, yes, your GOD, the one and only real God. Never again will my people be despised.

Joel is all about Jesus! This 3-day plan will walk you through the book of Joel by reading just a chapter or two a day. Each day is accompanied by a short devotional and video that explains what’s happening and shows you how each part of the story points to Jesus and his Gospel.
Joel’s prophetic work aimed to bring warning of God’s coming judgment over Israel. The book points towards a coming “day of the Lord” when God will judge all the earth. God invites his people to repent and return to Him, reminding them He is “gracious and merciful, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love” (Joel 2:13).

The principles of God’s kingdom defy human logic. In humbling ourselves, we are exalted. In giving, we gain. In dying, we live! Fasting is similar; physical hunger on earth allows us to experience greater spiritual fullness. In this plan, you will be challenged to see God’s kingdom advance in and throughout your life by practicing the discipline of fasting.
Fear is one of the most common emotions known to humankind. It is also the most debilitating feeling anyone could ever experience. It affects you spiritually and it can even impact you physically. In every situation, fear can hinder your pursuit of excellence. Fear can even shift your entire perspective on life. This plan unpacks the presence of fear, and the ways God would have us handle it.
