Happy New Year
I don’t know about you but as for me, I am resolute more than ever to trust and wholly depend on God. I refuse to lean on my own understanding. I've been there done that and struggled through it.
In 2024, you're really going to have to exercise your faith muscle. If you don’t have one, prepare to grow a pair. He will do all this to show Himself faithful, strong, mighty,
Here are 7 things you can do to stay grounded and successful throughout the year:
1) Commit to spending time with the Lord in the secret place. Pray about everything. Don’t be too busy for God. In His presence you will find rest, peace, protection and refuge from perilous tough times ahead ( Exodus 33:14, Zephaniah 3:17, Psalm 91, Proverbs 15:3, Proverbs 30:5)
2) Study your bible. The Word of God will instruct, guide and direct you (Job 23:12, Psalm 119:105, 2 Timothy 3:16).
3) Take a moment to plan your year out with God. You can't afford to move outside His will of without revelation from Him on how to discern and maneuver the times and seasons ( Ecclesiastes 1:9, Daniel 2:21)
4) Obey the instructions the Lord gives you QUICKLY (Jeremiah 29:11). This will ensure that you show up and stay ready for the doors that open up in 2024. Faith without preparation is dead.
5) Focus by fixing your eyes on Jesus. He is your anchor and firm foundation. Be courageous because the Lord is with you even as you step into your promised land, perform the assignment, go through trials, see perilous times (Joshua 1:6-9, Isaiah 41:10, Isaiah 43:2-3, Psalm 56:3-4)
6) Praise and worship your Maker because as He inhabits your praise and His glory descends, you will experience, deliverance, joy and freedom.
7) Entreat the Lord to marvelously help you through the Holy Spirit, angels, by way of blue prints and ideas from His sanctuary and divine connections, so that you may profit and make right decisions (Psalm 20:2. Isaiah 48:17)
