As we step into the month of March, we are reminded that every new month carries the breath of new beginnings. God, in His faithfulness has brought us into another season, not by accident but by purpose. March arrives as a gentle reminder that even after seasons of waiting, disappointment or uncertainty hope can still grow.

You may be entering this month with great expectations or perhaps with quiet prayers and unspoken concerns. Either way, God meets you exactly where you are. March is an invitation to become deeply rooted in hope, not a fragile hope based on circumstances but a steadfast hope grounded in God’s promises.

No matter what the previous months held, this month calls you to stand firm, believe again and trust that God is still working behind the scenes.

What It Means to Be Rooted in Hope

1. Hope anchors your heart in God’s promises

Being rooted in hope means choosing to believe God’s Word even when life feels uncertain. Hope is not denial of reality; it is confidence that God’s promises remain true regardless of circumstances.

“May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in Him.” Romans 15:13

When your hope is rooted in God, discouragement cannot easily shake you. Situations may change, but God’s faithfulness remains constant. This month, let hope anchor your thoughts and expectations.

2. Hope renews your strength

When hope is alive within you, strength begins to rise again. Weariness loses its grip, and courage returns.

“But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength.” Isaiah 40:31

Perhaps the past months drained your energy emotionally or spiritually. March comes with renewal. As you place your hope in God daily, He will restore your strength step by step.

3. Hope shifts your perspective

Hope allows you to see beyond present challenges. It reminds you that what you see now is not the final outcome.

“For we walk by faith, not by sight.” 2 Corinthians 5:7

This month, refuse to let temporary situations define your expectations. God is able to turn situations around in ways you cannot yet see. Hope opens your eyes to possibilities beyond your current reality.

What We Should Be Sure Of This Month

1. God is working even when you cannot see it

Just because something has not happened yet does not mean God is absent. Often, He is working quietly behind the scenes, aligning things in your favor.

“And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him.” Romans 8:28

This month, trust that God is working on your behalf, even in silence.

2. Your waiting is not wasted

Some prayers may still feel unanswered. Some expectations may still feel delayed. But waiting with God is never wasted time.

“They that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength.” Isaiah 40:31

God uses waiting seasons to prepare, strengthen, and position you. What feels like delay is often divine preparation.

3. New growth is beginning

March marks a shift. Just as spring begins to emerge, new spiritual growth will begin to appear in your life. Seeds planted in prayer, faith, and obedience will begin to sprout.

“See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?” Isaiah 43:19.

Expect new opportunities, new insights and renewed motivation. Growth may begin quietly but it will become visible in time.

God Has Not Forgotten You

If you entered this month carrying silent concerns or personal battles, take comfort in knowing that God sees and cares deeply about every detail of your life.

“The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.” Psalm 34:18.

Nothing about your life is hidden from Him. Every prayer whispered, every tear shed, and every moment of faith is seen. God has not forgotten you, and He has not abandoned His plans for you. Your story is still unfolding. What feels unfinished is still being written by God’s faithful hand.

Walking Daily Rooted in Hope. This month choose:

- Hope over discouragement

- Faith over doubt

- Patience over frustration

- Gratitude over complaint

- Trust over worry

Let hope shape your words, your prayers, and your expectations. When hope leads your heart, peace will follow.

Word of Instruction for March

Guard your thoughts carefully. Speak positively about your future. Pray consistently, even when answers seem delayed. Surround yourself with encouragement. Expect good things from God. Do not allow negative expectations to take root. Where hope is planted, miracles grow.

Prayer for the Month

Heavenly Father, thank You for bringing us into the month of March. Plant fresh hope in our hearts and renew our strength. Help us to trust Your promises and believe in Your faithfulness. Remove discouragement and replace it with confidence in You. Let this month bring growth, peace, and positive change. Guide our steps, order our decisions, and fill our hearts with unshakable hope.

In Jesus Name, Amen.

Declaration for March

This month of March, I am rooted in hope. My heart is steady and my faith is strong.

God is working all things for my good. I will not be discouraged or afraid. March will bring growth, peace, and testimony. My hope will not be shaken.

Amen.

Closing Exhortation

As you move through this month, stay rooted in hope. Do not let temporary challenges weaken your expectation of God’s goodness. Every day you remain hopeful is a declaration of trust in God’s faithfulness.

Hold on to hope when answers seem slow.

Hold on to hope when progress feels small.

Hold on to hope because God is still working.

Walk through March with confidence and expectation. What God has promised, He is able to fulfill. Stay rooted, stay hopeful, and keep moving forward.

As we step into a new month, we are reminded that time is not just passing, it is being entrusted to us.

Psalm 90:12- So teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.

Every new month arrives carrying fresh mercy, divine instructions, and God-ordained opportunities wrapped inside ordinary days.

Lamentations 3:22–23- It is of the Lord’s mercies that we are not consumed, because His compassions fail not. They are new every morning.

The past month may have held unanswered prayers, unexpected delays or lessons you did not ask for. But here you are still standing, still breathing, still becoming. That alone is evidence that God is not finished with you.

Philippians 1:6- Being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it.

Understanding the Grace of God

Grace is more than kindness. Grace is God’s power working on your behalf when you do not qualify by effort alone.

Ephesians 2:8- For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God.

Grace means:

- You are carried when you feel weak

- You are covered when you fall short

- You are enabled to move forward even when the road is unclear

This new month is not asking you to be perfect. It is inviting you to be:

- Present enough to notice small blessings

- Obedient enough to move when God nudges

- Open enough to receive help, correction, and growth

2 Corinthians 12:9- My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.

5 Anchors for This New Month: Stepping Forward With Grace

1. Grace Goes Before You

You are not stepping into this month alone. God has already gone ahead.

Deuteronomy 31:8- The Lord, He is the One who goes before you.”

What feels uncertain to you is already known to God.

2. Grace Sustains You

Grace is not only for beginnings, it is for endurance.

Isaiah 40:31- But those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength.

You will not burn out this month. You will be sustained.

3. Grace Teaches You

Grace trains you, not just blesses you.

Titus 2:11–12- The grace of God… teaches us to say no to ungodliness.”

This month, grace will give you wisdom to choose well.

4. Grace Opens Doors You Cannot Force

What effort cannot achieve, grace unlocks.

1 Corinthians 16:9- For a great and effective door has opened to me.

You will not struggle for access, grace will speak.

5. Grace Prepares You Quietly

Some seasons feel silent because God is building roots.

Ecclesiastes 3:11- He makes everything beautiful in its time.

Do not rush what God is forming deeply.

Watchword for the Month

GRACE-FORWARD

Hebrews 4:16- Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need. This month, you are not moving forward by pressure, you are moving forward by grace.

New Month Prayer

Lord, as this new month begins, we receive Your grace afresh. Order our steps and align our hearts with Your will. Give us discernment to choose wisely, courage to act faithfully and peace to rest in what we cannot yet understand. Let grace speak for us where words fail. Let grace strengthen us where we feel weak. Let this month yield progress, clarity, divine connections and undeniable testimonies. We step forward not by might, not by power, but by Your Spirit. In Jesus Name, Amen.

Psalm 45:6 - Your throne, O God, will last forever and ever; a scepter of justice will be the scepter of your kingdom.

As we step into a brand new year, I welcome you to 2026 - The Year of the Lord. This is more than a theme; it is a divine invitation to surrender, to align, and to walk intentionally with God throughout the days ahead.

Watchwords for the Year 2026:

2026 is the Year of the Lord. His throne stands forever, His justice rules over our lives and His will orders our steps. We surrender our days, our dreams, and our future, choosing to move only at His calling and not in fear. The Lord goes before us, His faithfulness never fails and His peace surrounds us in every season. We rise daily in His strength, empowered to walk in His glory and fulfill His purpose. Our lives are fully His, marked by His presence, crowned with His goodness, and devoted to His praise.

What This Year Means Spiritually:

1. Surrender to God’s Lordship

Let this be the year where we don't just call Him Lord but live like He truly is. Give Him your first, your time, thoughts, plans, and worship.

Proverbs 3:5–6

Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight.

2. Walk in His Justice and Peace

God’s scepter is not one of fear but of righteousness and justice. In a world of confusion, let His peace reign in your heart.

Isaiah 9:7

Of the greatness of His government and peace there will be no end. He will reign on David’s throne… with justice and righteousness.

3. Be Led, Not Driven

This year, we move only at His calling. No more striving. Let His voice lead your steps, your decisions, your direction.

Psalm 37:23

The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord, and He delights in his way.

4. Daily Strength for Purpose

Every day in 2026 is an opportunity to rise not in your strength but in His.

Isaiah 40:31

But those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength…

Reflection:

As the year begins, take time to reflect:

- What am I surrendering to God this year?

- In which areas do I need His justice, peace, or order?

- Where do I need to slow down and wait for His voice?

A Declaration for 2026:

This year is Yours, Lord. I surrender my days, my dreams, and my decisions. I will not run ahead of You. I will walk in Your strength, live in Your peace, and shine with Your glory. My life is Yours — use it for Your praise.”

A Closing Prayer:

Lord, as we walk into 2026, we place every day before You. Let Your will be done in our lives. Let this year be marked by Your presence, directed by Your wisdom, and filled with Your peace. We surrender all and say this year is Yours. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Welcome to 2026 - The Year of the Lord.

Let Him write His glory over every step you take.

Therefore I remind you to stir up the gift of God, which is in you through the laying on of my hands, 2 Timothy 1:6

As we enter the month of November; the eleventh month, a season that symbolizes transition and preparation, the Spirit of God is calling His children to rekindle the fire within. Many have started the year strong, but as time passes, zeal can fade, devotion can wane and hope can grow dim. Yet our God is faithful; He never allows His people to end the year empty. This is the month to stir the embers, to reignite our hearts and to receive fresh fire for the days ahead.

The fire represents passion, power, purity and purpose. When the fire of God burns in us, we cannot remain the same, our prayers become powerful, our worship becomes real and our service becomes fruitful. God is calling us not to let the altar grow cold but to keep the flame alive.

• 2 Timothy 1:6–7: “Fan into flame the gift of God which is in you.”

• Leviticus 6:12–13: “The fire on the altar must be kept burning; it must not go out.”

• Romans 12:11: “Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord.”

• Acts 2:1–4: “And tongues of fire rested upon each of them…”

The Need for Fresh Fire

Every believer must recognize that yesterday’s fire is not enough for today’s battles.

Moses’ encounter in Exodus 3 was a turning point — the bush burned, but was not consumed. That same God still lights up His people today. The fire represents:

• Renewed passion for God

• Cleansing from spiritual complacency

• Empowerment for effective service

If the fire goes out, our prayer life weakens, our worship becomes routine, and our faith becomes mechanical. But when the fire burns again, everything changes.

"Lord, set my heart ablaze again for You!"

How to Stir the Fire

The fire of God does not sustain itself; it must be fed. In Leviticus 6:12–13, God instructed the priests to keep the fire burning day and night. Likewise, as believers, we are the priests of our hearts.

Here’s how we keep the fire burning:

1. Through consistent prayer: Prayer is the oxygen of the Spirit (Luke 18:1).

2. Through the Word of God: The Word is fuel for the fire (Jeremiah 23:29).

3. Through worship and fellowship: Fellowship fans the flame (Hebrews 10:25).

4. Through obedience: The fire burns brighter when we obey God promptly.

5. Through purity and holiness: The fire thrives in clean vessels (2 Timothy 2:21).

3. The Purpose of the Fire: The fire of God is not for show but for service. When the Holy Spirit came as fire in Acts 2, the apostles were transformed from fearful followers to fearless witnesses.

The fire empowers us to:

• Witness boldly (Acts 4:31)

• Pray fervently (James 5:16)

• Love deeply (Romans 5:5)

• Endure patiently (2 Corinthians 4:8–9)

The fresh fire makes you unstoppable, not by might, nor by power, but by His Spirit (Zechariah 4:6).

Encouragement for November

Beloved, this month, do not allow weariness to quench your flame. You may feel tired, forgotten, or discouraged but God is not done with you yet. The same Spirit who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you! He is rekindling your zeal, reviving your strength and empowering you to finish the year with joy. Even when life feels cold, remember: the altar of your heart can burn again. The Lord says in Haggai 2:9 “The glory of this latter house shall be greater than the former.” This means your ending shall be better than your beginning. Fresh fire brings fresh glory. So arise, rebuild your altar and let the flame burn again. The fire you carry will bring light to others, healing to hearts, and revival to your generation.

Prayer Points

1. Lord, rekindle Your fire within me. Let my love for You burn brighter.

2. Every spirit of weariness and lukewarmness be consumed by the fire of the Holy Ghost!

3. Lord, make me a carrier of Your presence and power in this generation.

4. Father, let my life, my family and my ministry burn with holy passion.

5. Lord, as this year ends, let my fire not go out but burn stronger for Your glory.

Declaration for the Month

This month, I receive fresh fire from above. I will not grow cold or weary. My altar shall burn continually with passion and praise. I am empowered to finish the year strong. The God of hope fills me with joy, peace and power through the Holy Spirit! (Romans 15:13)

November is not the month to give up, it’s the month to rise up.The year may be closing, but your spiritual strength is just beginning to overflow. Keep your altar alive. Stay in the Word. Remain in prayer. And let the fire of God within you shine brightly for all to see.

May the Holy Spirit ignite you afresh and may your testimony in December be:

“The Lord has renewed my strength and I have finished this year with fire!”

Amen.

Shall I bring to the birth, and not cause to bring forth? saith the Lord: shall I cause to bring forth, and shut the womb? saith thy God.

Isaiah 66:9 (KJV)

As we enter the ninth month of the year; September, a month often associated with birthing and completion, it’s time to shift into a posture of expectation and faith. I welcome you with joy, expectation, and renewed hope. In the natural, the ninth month is symbolic of birth and delivery and I declare that in this month, all that you've prayed, hoped, and labored for will begin to manifest. Just as the natural process of pregnancy reaches delivery in the ninth month, so also do many of the spiritual seeds we’ve sown throughout the year begin to bring forth fruit.

This is a month to believe God for manifestation. All the silent prayers, consistent efforts, and quiet obedience. God has not forgotten. He is a God who completes what He begins.

Bible Verses to Hold On To:

Philippians 1:6 - Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ.

Galatians 6:9 - And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.

Jeremiah 29:11- For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.

Reflection:

Have you been feeling like things are slow or stagnant? September reminds us that God works in appointed times. Sometimes the waiting is not a denial, but preparation. The womb is silent for nine months before the cry of new life is heard.

Ask yourself:

- What promises has God spoken over me this year?

- What has been developing behind the scenes?

- Am I ready to receive what I’ve been praying for?

Let this month be a time of renewed faith, preparation, and joyful expectation.

Prayer for the Month of September

Heavenly Father, thank You for carrying us into a new month. We surrender September to You. We believe this is our season of divine delivery; spiritually, emotionally, and physically. Every good work You have started in our lives, Lord, please bring it to completion. We receive strength to wait, courage to push, and grace to walk in the fullness of Your purpose for us. May this month bring breakthroughs, favor, peace, and joy. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

This is your month of divine delivery.

Everything that has been growing silently in the background; dreams, ideas, breakthroughs will begin to take shape in the open.

Hold on to these promises:

Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth...Isaiah 43:19

This September, may you:

✓ Walk in divine peace

✓ Experience supernatural favour

✓ Receive answers to long-standing prayers

✓ Be surrounded with love, laughter, and light

✓ Birth the purpose and promises God has placed in you

No matter how the year has gone so far, don’t lose heart. A lot can happen in just one month. God is never late.

Happy New Month!

Welcome to September your season of joyful delivery. May September overflow with peace, purpose, and promise for you and your loved ones.

Philippians 1:6

being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.

We are stepping into a prophetic word for the month of July. As many of you know, July is the seventh month in the calendar year, and in biblical numerology, the number seven represents completion, fullness, and divine perfection.

The Bible tells us in Genesis 2:2 that after God created the heavens and the earth, He rested on the seventh daybecause His work was finished and perfected. This divine pattern of completion is still relevant for us today. God is a God who finishes what He starts.

Our focus today is anchored on Philippians 1:6, where Apostle Paul encourages the church with these words:

"Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ."

I want to declare over you today that in this seventh month, God will perfect and complete every good work He has begun in your life.

UNDERSTANDING JULY AND THE NUMBER SEVEN

The number seven appears over 700 times in Scripture. It symbolizes wholeness, rest, and spiritual perfection. For example:

• God created the world in six days and rested on the seventh (Genesis 2:2).

• There are seven seals in Revelation, seven churches, seven trumpets—seven is a divine number of completion.

This month, July, is your season of divine completion. It’s a time to expect closure to unfinished business and fullness in areas where you have been waiting.

WHAT IS DIVINE COMPLETION AND PERFECTION?

Divine completion means that God will bring to fulfillment every purpose and plan He has placed in your life. He does not start projects only to abandon them.

In Psalm 138:8, the psalmist declares:

"The LORD will perfect that which concerneth me."

The word perfect here means to complete, to bring to maturity, to make whole. It means no loose ends, no half-finished assignments, no failures.

God’s perfection is seen in creation, in His promises, and supremely in Jesus Christ. When Jesus said on the cross, “It is finished” (John 19:30), He declared the completion of the greatest work of salvation.

WHY DIVINE COMPLETION IS IMPORTANT

Why do we need to believe and expect divine completion?

1. To fulfill God's promises

God’s promises to you will come to pass in full.

2 Corinthians 1:20 reminds us: “All the promises of God in Him are Yes, and in Him Amen.”

2. To silence the enemy

The enemy loves to bring delay and frustration. Completion breaks his power.

3. To strengthen your faith and testimony

When God completes His work in you, your faith grows and your testimony becomes a beacon of hope to others.

4. To walk in divine rest

Completion brings rest; unfinished work brings stress and worry. Hebrews 4:9 tells us that a rest remains for the people of God.

OBSTACLES TO COMPLETION

Despite God’s desire to complete His work in us, some obstacles can hinder this:

• Doubt and fear: James 1:6-8 warns us about wavering faith. Doubt delays completion.

• Disobedience or distraction: Jonah fled God’s plan, and it delayed his destiny.

• Satanic hindrances: Spiritual battles can stall progress (Daniel 10:12-13).

• Impatience: God works in His perfect timing (Ecclesiastes 3:11).

We must resist these obstacles by faith, obedience, and perseverance.

HOW TO EXPERIENCE DIVINE COMPLETION THIS MONTH

1. Trust God fully

Be confident that God who began the good work in you will complete it. Speak faith-filled words: “God cannot abandon me!”

2. Pray with expectation

Use Psalm 138:8 as your prayer:

“Lord, perfect all that concerns me.” Pray specifically for each area — health, family, career, destiny.

3. Walk in obedience

Align your life with God’s will. Romans 12:2 says, “Be transformed by the renewing of your mind.”

4. Declare your completion

Speak aloud: “My healing is complete. My business is perfected. My family is restored.” Your words release faith.

5. Give thanks in advance

Jesus gave thanks before miracles happened. Thanksgiving activates God’s power (John 6:11).

PROPHETIC DECLARATIONS FOR JULY

I want us to declare these truths together, to align our spirits with God’s word:

• I walk in divine perfection this month.

• The good work God started in my life will be completed.

• I enter into divine rest; no more anxiety or striving.

• I will see the fulfillment of long-awaited promises.

• My family, career, and calling shall be perfected.

• July shall be my season of testimony and glory in Jesus’ name!

CONCLUSION

Beloved, July is not just another month on the calendar. It is a divine opportunity — a season for completion, rest, and perfection. God who began the good work in you is faithful and will complete it. Stop worrying about what is unfinished. Release all doubt and impatience. Step into this month with faith and confidence.

Expect testimonies of fullness in your health, family, finances, and spirit. The Lord will perfect everything concerning you.

Let us close in prayer, declaring God’s completion over our lives.

PRAYER FOR THE MONTH

Father, we thank You for Your faithfulness. We declare that the work You began in each of us will be perfected in Jesus’ name. Help us to walk in Your rest and surrender our doubts and fears to You. Open doors of blessings and let every promise come to pass. We receive divine completion, perfection, and fullness this month. Thank You, Lord, for Your enduring mercy. Amen.

Galatians 6:9: And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.

June marks the midpoint of the year, a time to reflect on God's faithfulness and renew our commitment to His path. As we navigate this month, let's focus on walking in God's grace, trusting His timing, and remaining steadfast in our faith.

Grace is the unmerited favor of God. It's through His grace that we are saved and empowered to do good works. Ephesians 2:8-9 reminds us that it's not by our efforts but by His grace that we are saved. Galatians 6:9 encourages us not to grow weary in doing good. The Christian journey can be challenging, but we're reminded that our labor is not in vain. 1 Corinthians 15:58 urges us to be steadfast, knowing that our work in the Lord is not futile. The phrase "in due season" emphasizes God's perfect timing. Ecclesiastes 3:1 tells us there's a time for everything. While we may not see immediate results, we can trust that God will bring forth a harvest in His time.

Practical Steps to Walk in Grace:

- Stay Connected to God: Regular prayer and reading of the Word strengthen our relationship with Him.

- Serve Others: Look for opportunities to bless others, reflecting God's love through our actions.

- Seek Support: Engage with fellow believers for encouragement and accountability.

Prayer Points:

1. Gratitude: Thank God for His unwavering grace and mercy.

2. Strength: Seek strength to persevere in doing good.

3. Guidance:Ask for clear direction in all decisions.

4. Peace:Pray for peace amidst challenges.

5. Renewal: Request a renewed spirit and commitment to God's will.

Closing Prayer:

Heavenly Father, as we step into June, we thank You for Your grace that has sustained us. Strengthen our hearts to continue in Your work, guide our steps, and renew our spirits. May we walk in Your grace and reflect Your love in all we do. In Jesus' name, Amen.

You Are Fearfully and Wonderfully Made. Psalm 139 verse 14 says

"I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well."

You are not an accident. God designed you with intention and love.

- Society may try to define your worth, but God has already called you His masterpiece.

- No matter your past, your struggles, or your imperfections— you are valuable in God’s eyes.

Instead of doubting yourself, start declaring God’s truth over your life: “I am chosen. I am loved. I am enough.”

God Has a Purpose for You. God assures us in the book of Jeremiah chapter 29 verse 11 and says: "For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end."

- God has good plans for you—plans that bring hope and a future.

- Even in difficult seasons, God is still working things out for your good.

- Trust His timing. Even when doors close, *God is redirecting you to something better.

Ask yourself, Am I trusting God with my future, or am I letting fear hold me back? In 2nd Timothy Chapter 1 verse 7 we see a powerful declaration of God’s assurance about Overcoming Fear & Walking in Confidence:

"For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind."

- Fear often stops women from stepping into their full potential. But fear is not from God!

- God has given you power, love, and a sound mind to face any challenge.

- You don’t have to feel “ready” to step out in faith—God equips those He calls.

Say this aloud: "I refuse to let fear control me. I walk in God’s strength and confidence. Keep Going—God is With You!

Isaiah chapter 41 verse 10 says:

"Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness."

- When you feel weary, God says, "I am with you."

- He will strengthen and uphold you, even in moments of doubt.

- Don’t compare your journey with others—God’s plan for you is unique and beautiful.

Let go of stress, surrender your worries, and trust that God is holding you up.

"My dear sisters, remember this: You are worthy, strong, and deeply loved by God. Whatever you are facing today, God sees you, He cares for you, and He is guiding your steps*. Hold on to His promises, walk boldly in faith, and never forget—you were created for more."

Let us pray:

"Father, I thank You for every woman listening today. Remind her that she is fearfully and wonderfully made. Give her the strength to walk in faith, the courage to trust Your plan, and the confidence to embrace her God-given worth. May she go forward in peace, knowing that You are with her every step of the way. In Jesus’ name, Amen."

The concept of "New Creation" in the Bible is a profound and transformative truth that describes the radical change that occurs in the life of a believer when they accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. This new identity as a "new creation" is not just about a change in behavior but a complete renewal of the inner person—spirit, mind, and heart—through the work of the Holy Spirit.

Let's dive into the Bible's teaching about the new creation reality:

1. What Does it Mean to Be a New Creation?

Being a new creation means that, through faith in Jesus Christ, you are no longer defined by your past, your mistakes, or your old nature. When you accept Christ, you are made spiritually alive and receive a brand-new identity in Him. This concept is most clearly articulated in 2 Corinthians 5:17: Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come (NIV)

This means:

- The Old is Gone: Your past life, your sins, your old way of thinking, and your separation from God are all wiped away.

- The New has Come: You are now a completely new person in Christ, with a new nature, purpose, and relationship with God. Your identity is now rooted in Christ.

2. A New Identity in Christ

The Bible teaches that when we accept Christ, we are spiritually reborn and receive a new identity. This transformation happens because, through Christ, we are reconciled to God and made part of His family. Ephesians 2:10 speaks to this reality: For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.

In this verse:

- You are God’s workmanship – His unique creation, crafted with purpose and intention.

You were created in Christ Jesus to walk in a new life and fulfill the purpose He has for you.

3. The Old Nature is Crucified with Christ.

Being a new creation means that your old sinful nature has been crucified with Christ. This transformation happens at the moment of salvation, where your old self is buried with Christ and you rise to walk in the newness of life.

Romans 6:4 says:

We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life.

Through Christ's death, burial, and resurrection, we participate in this spiritual transformation—leaving our old sinful ways behind and living a new life of freedom in Him.

4. Empowered by the Holy Spirit

The new creation reality is not just about having a new identity, but also being empowered to live in accordance with God's will.

Galatians 5:16 encourages us: So I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh.

The Holy Spirit works within us to transform our desires, thoughts, and actions. The old nature, which was governed by sin, is now replaced by the Spirit of God, who empowers us to live a life pleasing to Him.

5. Living Out the New Creation

The reality of being a new creation isn’t just a theological truth—it’s a lifestyle to embrace. It’s about living according to the new nature God has given you. Colossians 3:9-10 urges believers to:

Do not lie to each other, since you have taken off your old self with its practices and have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge in the image of its Creator.

Living as a new creation means:

- Putting off the old self —the old patterns, behaviors, and ways of thinking that belonged to the old life.

- Putting on the new self —embracing Christ's likeness, living by His Word, and allowing the Holy Spirit to guide and empower you.

6. The New Creation is a Process

While our new identity is immediate and complete in Christ, the outworking of this transformation takes time. Philippians 1:6 reminds us:

Being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.

As new creations, we are continually being transformed by God’s grace, and He is at work in us, shaping us more into the likeness of His Son.

Conclusion:

Being a new creation in God means that you are no longer defined by your past, but by your relationship with Christ. You are made alive in Him, given a new identity, and empowered by the Holy Spirit to live out God’s plan for your life. The new creation reality is about embracing your new nature in Christ, walking in His power, and allowing the transformation to shape the way you think, act, and live.

As you grow in this new reality, remember that you are God’s masterpiece, designed for good works and to reflect His glory in the world.

Watchwords for this month:

Romans 6:4 - We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life.

In the midst of life’s challenges, we often find ourselves searching for hope, clarity, and peace. Psalm 34:5 offers us a powerful reminder of where to look when we need encouragement and assurance: "They looked unto him, and were lightened: and their faces were not ashamed."

This verse is a testament to the transformative power of focusing on God. It tells us that when we turn our eyes to Him, we can’t help but be changed.

But what does this really mean for us in our day-to-day lives?

1. Looking to God Brings Light to Our Lives

The word " lightened " in this verse speaks to a sense of inner light, joy, and peace that shines through even in dark times. It's the kind of glow that doesn't come from external circumstances but from the presence of something greater within us. When we look to God, we invite His spirit into our hearts, and that spirit illuminates us. This doesn’t mean life will suddenly be perfect, but it does mean that we can face life’s storms with a quiet confidence. Our light isn’t dependent on the absence of problems, but on the presence of God’s strength and peace within us.

2. A Promise of Freedom from Shame

Shame often keeps us trapped. It’s that feeling of being unworthy, less-than, or like we’ve failed beyond repair. But Psalm 34:5 assures us that those who look to God will never be covered with shame. When we focus on God’s love, grace, and forgiveness, we’re freed from the weight of past mistakes and failures. We don’t have to carry the burden of shame because God lifts us up, embracing us with unconditional love. The more we align ourselves with His truth, the more we understand that we are not defined by our failures, but by His redemptive power. When we look to God, we become free of shame's hold and walk in the confidence of His forgiveness.

3. The Power of Focus

In today’s fast-paced world, it’s easy to get distracted and lose sight of what truly matters. The world constantly pulls our attention in many directions; whether through social media, work demands, or personal pressures. But Psalm 34:5 reminds us of the importance of choosing where to focus our energy. When we choose to look to God, we choose peace, purpose, and perspective. Shifting our gaze toward God doesn’t require us to abandon our responsibilities or ignore the realities of life. Instead, it’s about keeping our hearts rooted in something that transcends those circumstances. It’s about letting His wisdom, love, and truth guide our decisions and reactions.

Practical Steps to Look to God

If you’re wondering how to begin looking to God in a practical sense, start by:

- Spending time in prayer and reflection: Take time each day to talk to God. Share your hopes, your fears, and your gratitude. Let Him speak into your life.

- Engaging with Scripture: Dive into the Bible, allowing its words to refresh and renew your mind. Psalm 34 itself is a great place to start, reminding us that God is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.

- Surrounding yourself with a supportive community: Whether through church, friends, or family, make sure you're surrounded by people who help point you back to God’s truth and love.

- Practicing gratitude: In moments of uncertainty, take a moment to thank God for the blessings you do have. Gratitude helps refocus your heart on God’s goodness, no matter the circumstances.

When we choose to look to God, we invite His light to shine into the darkest corners of our lives. That light not only radiates within us but also touches everyone we encounter. It's not just a temporary fix but a lasting transformation that shapes who we are and how we walk through the world.

Watchwords for this month:

Psalm 34:5 is more than a promise. It’s an invitation to experience the radiant peace, joy, and confidence that come from being in God’s presence. So, no matter what challenges you're facing today, remember that you can look to Him and be lightened. You don't have to face life’s struggles alone. His light will guide you and give you the strength you need.

Psalm 34:5 (KJV)

They looked unto him, and were lightened: and their faces were not ashamed.

God is ever faithful. In this year 2025 the Lord want us to put our total trust in Him. No matter the circumstances that we may be going through, the Lord says we should look unto Him. People may fail you, but God won’t. He is the Author and the finisher of our Faith. God knows everything about us before we were formed in our mother's womb. He knows every steps we take. Jesus bore all our Shame for us on the cross of Calvary. He took our shame and exchanged it for His honour. He who knew no shame became shamed for us so that in Him we might become the honoured ones of God.

Hebrews 12:2- Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.

Jesus takes our shame and gives us honour – SO LET US LOOK UNTO HIM totally. By looking unto Him (by trusting Him totally) we are lightened and our faces are NEVER covered with shame. Romans 10:11 (WEB) - For the Scripture says, “Whoever believes in Him will not be disappointed.

I love this promise of God to us in the book of Isaiah 28:16 - So this is what the Sovereign LORD says: “See, I lay a stone in Zion, a tested stone, a precious cornerstone for a sure foundation; the one who relies on it will never be stricken with panic.

Jesus is our sure foundation, we are going to continue to rely on Him and His Promise to us is sure- we will never be stricken with panic.

God loves us and His promise to us will surely be fulfilled.

Psalm 119: 89 -90 KJV

89 For ever, O Lord, thy word is settled in heaven.

90 Thy faithfulness is unto all generations: thou hast established the earth, and it abideth.

Brethren let us look up to God in every areas of our lives. No matter what you are going through trust in Him for everything.

In everything you are doing in 2025, in every decision seek God for increased discernment, guidance, and wisdom. He knows exactly what will make you shine forth in the future. In all your ways and in every circumstance, look to Him. Abba Father is a very present help in trouble. In times of despair and troubles, be rest assured that God is ever faithful and He is with you to lead, to protect and to fulfill all His promises to you.

Psalm 46:1 God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.

6 The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.

8 The Lord shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore.

3. God provides for us

(Matthew 6:26)

Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?

4. Nothing can move us

(Psalm 27:1)

The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?

5. God delivers us from all our troubles

(Psalm 34:19)

Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the Lord delivereth him out of them all.

6. God protects us

(Psalm 121:7-8)

7 The Lord shall preserve thee from all evil: he shall preserve thy soul.

7. God guides our Steps

(Psalm 37:23)

The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord: and he delighteth in his ways.

In times of despair and trouble, let us be rest assured that God is ever faithful and He is always with us to lead, to protect and to fulfil all His promises to us. Brethren let us look up to God in every areas of our lives.

The year 2025 is the Year of God's Blessings. God has blessed His people greatly and it is His desire to see that we stay blessed. He said we should fix our eyes on Him as the author and perfecter of our faith with our faith unshaken. Obey God and trust in Him - That is the key to God’s blessings.

The Bible says in the book of Isaiah 44:2 KJV:

Thus saith the Lord that made thee, and formed thee from the womb, which will help thee; Fear not, O Jacob, my servant; and thou, Jesurun, whom I have chosen.

(Zechariah 4: 1-14 KJV)

¹And the angel that talked with me came again, and waked me, as a man that is wakened out of his sleep.

²And said unto me, What seest thou? And I said, I have looked, and behold a candlestick all of gold, with a bowl upon the top of it, and his seven lamps thereon, and seven pipes to the seven lamps, which are upon the top thereof:

³And two olive trees by it, one upon the right side of the bowl, and the other upon the left side thereof.

⁴So I answered and spake to the angel that talked with me, saying, What are these, my lord?

⁵Then the angel that talked with me answered and said unto me, Knowest thou not what these be? And I said, No, my lord.

⁶Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the word of the Lord unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the Lordof hosts.

⁷Who art thou, O great mountain? before Zerubbabel thou shalt become a plain: and he shall bring forth the headstone thereof with shoutings, crying, Grace, grace unto it.

⁸Moreover the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

⁹The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this house; his hands shall also finish it; and thou shalt know that the Lord of hosts hath sent me unto you.

¹⁰For who hath despised the day of small things? for they shall rejoice, and shall see the plummet in the hand of Zerubbabel with those seven; they are the eyes of the Lord, which run to and fro through the whole earth.

¹¹Then answered I, and said unto him, What are these two olive trees upon the right side of the candlestick and upon the left side thereof?

¹²And I answered again, and said unto him, What be these two olive branches which through the two golden pipes empty the golden oil out of themselves?

¹³And he answered me and said, Knowest thou not what these be? And I said, No, my lord.

¹⁴Then said he, These are the two anointed ones, that stand by the Lord of the whole earth.

When Jesus says yes nobody can say no. Sometimes we find ourselves in some situation and we thought there is no way out again but the Bible says Christ in us the hope of glory.

Who can stand in the way of Messiah? Nobody. I have found myself in some situations in the past that makes me to know that nobody can stand in the way of God. He is our living HOPE. He is the HOPE OF GLORY.

(Zechariah 4:7 KJV) “Who art thou, O great mountain? before Zerubbabel thou shalt become a plain: and he shall bring forth the headstone thereof with shoutings, crying, Grace, grace unto it.

When we put our total trust in God and when we commit our ways to him then our lives is sure and secured. God loves us and he is ever faithful.

Whatever we started or we are about to do we should always commit it to the hands of God. He is the beginning and the end. He knows everything about our lives and He is ever faithful.

The LORD is good all the time. May the God of love be with us and continue to guide our ways (Amen).

(Psalm 37:1-7KJV)

¹Fret not thyself because of evildoers, neither be thou envious against the workers of iniquity.

²For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb.

³Trust in the Lord, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed.

⁴Delight thyself also in the Lord: and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.

⁵Commit thy way unto the Lord; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.

⁶And he shall bring forth thy righteousness as the light, and thy judgment as the noonday.

⁷Rest in the Lord, and wait patiently for him: fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass.

Have you ever asked God to grant you your heart desire and it seems as if He wouldn’t answer? Does that mean that our heavenly Father has forsaken or forgotten us? The answer is NO. The good news is that God does not forget whatever we ask Him according to His will.

Why do we have to wait sometimes

1. God's timing may not be your timing

Our heavenly Father knows what is best for us, He knows the appropriate time to give us what we desire. He guides each step we take because He loves us. We should learn to wait patiently on the Lord because His timing is the best. He is a very present help in times of trouble . (Psalm 46:1 KJV) God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.

He will never forsake us but sometimes He wants us to wait on him because what He WANTS TO DO FOR US IS GREATER THAN WHAT WE ARE ASKING FOR and he wants to be sure we are mature enough to handle the greater things he has planned to give to us. Of course while waiting we may be worried but at the end we will realise that it pays to wait on the Lord, and it pays to serve Him.

(1 Corinthians 2:9 KJV) But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.

2. Not all that glitters is Gold

Sometimes we as Human desire some things and we really want to have them, but as Human we can't see all the implications and complications attached to what we so much desire. Our heavenly father; JEHOVAH is all knowing, he knows the end even from the beginning and He will only give us what is good for us because He is a good God

(Romans 8: 28 KJV) And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

3. The habit of just asking

(Psalm 22: 3 KJV) But thou art holy, O thou that inhabitest the praises of Israel.

In other words, God “dwells” in the atmosphere of His praise. We should learn to praise and thank God in every Situation we found ourselves because even before we were formed in our mother's womb he knows us and cares for us: (Jeremiah 1: 5 KJV) Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations.

Praise - Is the voice of faith, Praise - Is the language of heaven, Praise - Sets the stage for God to move.

4. Do we pray in the right way

In the book of (Luke 11:1-13 KJV) Our Lord Jesus Christ taught us how to pray. The Lord’s Prayer is not a prayer we are to memorize and recite to God. It is an example of the things that should go into a prayer—worship, trust in God, requests, confession, and submission. We are to pray for the things the Lord’s Prayer talks about, using our own words and “customizing” it to our own journey with God. The proper way to pray is to express our hearts to God.

5. What is our Intention

The Intentions of our Hearts matter most. If we deceive ourselves and others, we can never deceive God because he knows every intentions of our Hearts. Let us be honest and open with God, He knows us better than we know ourselves. God is more interested in the content of our hearts than the eloquence of our words. Let us always submit our Will to God, because he loves us and has good plans for us.

(Jeremiah 29:11 KJV) For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.

Unshaken in your Faith Anchored in God’s Promises

Surrender your desires to God

Turn from the ways of the world

Total Submission to God's Will

God requires us to submit totally to His Will. We should listen to Him, obey him and allow him to lead us in all we do and desire.

Submitting to God is giving up our own desires, hopes and wants and choosing to follow Jesus christ wherever He leads.

1 Peter 5:6 (KJV)- Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time:

Rely on God

Psalm 37:3 (AMPC) Trust (lean on, rely on, and be confident) in the Lord and do good; so shall you dwell in the land and feed surely on His faithfulness, and truly you shall be fed.

When we rely on God, we acknowledge His Lordship in our lives. It simply means we are saying: Abba father, here we are, You have got our back.

Unshaken in your Faith Anchored in God's Promises

At all time we should find strength, courage and peace in God’s promises for He will surely do what He says He will do. Abba Father is faithful He will not suffer us to be tempted above that we are able.

1 Corinthians 10:13 - There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.

Hebrews 11:11 (KJV) Through faith also Sara herself received strength to conceive seed, and was delivered of a child when she was past age, because she judged him faithful who had promised.

Surrender your desires to God

One of the lessons I have learnt in my spiritual journey is that whenever I reach a dead end and it seems there is no way out of the situation I am, I usually surender all my worries to God and put my total trust and hope in Him and He always shows up for me.

To surrender yourself completely to God, it usually takes risk and requires you to step out of your comfort zone. Many times we say we trust God, but what we really mean is that we trust Him to do what we want rather than what He knows is best for us. People of God, God’s Timing is the best, wait on Him. That which you desire so much, God knows the reason why you haven’t gotten it. He will surely show up for you when the time is ripe.

1 Peter 5:7 (KJV) Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.

Psalm 46:1 (KJV) God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.

Turn from the ways of the world

Psalm 20:7 (KJV): Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will remember the name of the Lord our God. When we go before the Lord and turn from the ways of the world, God will surely reward us with abundant mercy and give us our heart desires. HEBREWS 4:16 - Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.

Colossians 3:2 (KJV) Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.

One of my favorite Chapter of the Bible is Psalm 125

Psalm 125: 1-5

1They that trust in the Lord shall be as mount Zion, which cannot be removed, but abideth for ever.

²As the mountains are round about Jerusalem, so the Lord is round about his people from henceforth even for ever.

³For the rod of the wicked shall not rest upon the lot of the righteous; lest the righteous put forth their hands unto iniquity.

⁴Do good, O Lord, unto those that be good, and to them that are upright in their hearts.

⁵As for such as turn aside unto their crooked ways, the Lord shall lead them forth with the workers of iniquity: but peace shall be upon Israel.

God never fails. Deuteronomy 31:6 - Be strong and of a good courage, fear not, nor be afraid of them: for the Lord thy God, he it is that doth go with thee; he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.

May God answer all your secret prayers according to His Will. I pray that this new month brings you immense happiness, boundless success, and countless blessings. May every day be filled with new opportunities. Cast Your Burden Upon The Lord. 1 Peter 5: 7 (KJV) - Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.

(Psalm 126:1 KJV)

When the Lord turned again the captivity of Zion, we were like them that dream.

The people of Zion were in captivity but the Lord rescue them and release them from their captivity. Sometimes we find ourselves in some difficult situations and it seems like there is no way out. God is a good God. In any situation we find ourselves we should always trust in God because God will never forsake his own people.

(Psalm 30:5 KJV) For his anger endureth but a moment; in his favour is life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning.

God is able to restore all we have lost; more than we could ever imagined. Sometimes we may face disappointment, though it's hard to cope with disappointment, but some disappointments are actually blessings in disguise. Let us put our trust in God because He is the only one who is 100% trustworthy.

(Psalm 125 :1 KJV) They that trust in the Lord shall be as mount Zion, which cannot be removed, but abideth for ever.

WHAT TO DO WHILE YOU'RE WAITING ON GOD

1.Praying and fasting; The Bible says „ Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much. (James 5:16 KJV)

2. Work hard to know the mind of God on the situation you are

3. Seeking the face of God on what He wants you to do about the Situation you are facing

4. Trust in the Lord with all your heart

5. Spend time in Worship

6. Praise God and thank him for what he has done in the past

(Psalm 126:6 KJV) He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him.

(Proverbs 23:23 KJV)

Buy the truth, and sell it not; also wisdom, and instruction, and understanding.

In this World of ours, the Truth is very rare. People prefer lies. Infact liars get more favour because most time people tend to accept liars more than the trustworthy person.

People lies for so many reasons:

· Some lies to uphold themselves and make themselves more important in the sight of others, all in the name of pride, They tell lies to their friends to make themselves feel more important.

· Some lies to bring others down. Most times when they are envious of the other person they prefer to tell lies against the person and bring the person down, so many souls have been destroyed due to false accusations and lies.

· Some tell lies to get favour, the Bible says Favour comes from the Lord, when the Lord decide to give us favour it does not depend on our lies, God will do what he says he will do.

(Psalm 5:12 KJV)

For thou, Lord, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield.

The TRUTH IS GOLD, but people may never believe this. There are so many nice things in this World but truth, wisdom, instruction and understanding is very very important.

God want us to acquire truth, wisdom, instruction and understanding.

(Proverb 4:7 KJV) Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.

Whatever we want to acquire in the world, we should always aim at wisdom, and understanding, together with TRUTH we will be able to acquire great things in life.
The lie can run for years but the truth catches up with it one day. There is victory of truth over Falsehood.

Wisdom, understanding, instruction and truth are GOLD. God as our loving Father want us to have all these virtues, in all these there is greatness.

Since I have been born again (I accepted Jesus Christ as my Lord and Personal Savior when I was10 years old; more than 3 decades ago, Hallelujah to the Lord for saving my soul) the only one thing Abba Father can never do is to tell a lie. He honors His Word more than His Name.

Psalm 138: 1-2

1 I will praise thee with my whole heart: before the gods will I sing praise unto thee.

2I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name.

The Book of Hebrews reveals more to us about the certainty of the promise of GOD.

Hebrews 6: 13-20

¹³For when God made promise to Abraham, because he could swear by no greater, he sware by himself,

¹⁴Saying, Surely blessing I will bless thee, and multiplying I will multiply thee.

¹⁵And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise.

¹⁶For men verily swear by the greater: and an oath for confirmation is to them an end of all strife.

¹⁷Wherein God, willing more abundantly to shew unto the heirs of promise the immutability of his counsel, confirmed it by an oath:

¹⁸That by two immutable things, in which it was impossible for God to lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us:

¹⁹Which hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and stedfast, and which entereth into that within the veil;

²⁰Whither the forerunner is for us entered, even Jesus, made an high priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec.

God knows the best and the right time to grant us that wish we desire according to His Will and he know the best and the safe time to bring us to that divine destination he has promised us. In fact, it is important for God to take us through the process of waiting in order to build our character, ability, faith and trust.

3 things are important during the period of waiting

1. Faith:

Without faith it is impossible to Please God. Moreover, faith makes us stronger and give us the strength to move ahead knowing that Abba Father will accomplish His promises for our lives.

2. Endurance:

Endurance is very important in the period of waiting upon the Lord. Hebrews 6:15- And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise.

3. Prayer and standing firm in God’s Word:

While waiting on the Lord and, in fact irregardless of whatever we are passing through–times of Joy and times of struggle we have to pray without ceasing every day of our lives. 1 Thessalonians 17- Pray without ceasing. Trusting His Word and having confident that he will accomplish all he has promised is the key to getting to our God given destinations.

God’s Promises are reliable and true. We are going to continue to believe in His Word and have faith in God and God will fulfil His promises in our lives.

Jeremiah 29:11 - For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.

Our God is the God Of Knowledge, he knows everything about me, you and the whole World even before the Creation of the World. His Knowledge is without limit. Our God knows the end from the beginning.

(Isaiah 46:10 KJV) Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure:

I love this Psalm so much: (Psalm 139: 1-24 KJV)

1 O lord, thou hast searched me, and known me.

²Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising, thou understandest my thought afar off.

³Thou compassest my path and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways.

⁴For there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O Lord, thou knowest it altogether.

⁵Thou hast beset me behind and before, and laid thine hand upon me.

⁶Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot attain unto it.

⁷Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy presence?

⁸If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there.

⁹If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea;

¹⁰Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me.

¹¹If I say, Surely the darkness shall cover me; even the night shall be light about me.

¹²Yea, the darkness hideth not from thee; but the night shineth as the day: the darkness and the light are both alike to thee.

¹³For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mother's womb.

¹⁴I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.

¹⁵My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.

¹⁶Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them.

¹⁷How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God! how great is the sum of them!

¹⁸If I should count them, they are more in number than the sand: when I awake, I am still with thee.

¹⁹Surely thou wilt slay the wicked, O God: depart from me therefore, ye bloody men.

²⁰For they speak against thee wickedly, and thine enemies take thy name in vain.

²¹Do not I hate them, O Lord, that hate thee? and am not I grieved with those that rise up against thee?

²²I hate them with perfect hatred: I count them mine enemies.

²³Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts:

²⁴And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.

The Lord our GOD is ever faithful. May the good Lord continue to guide us on all our ways, Amen.

Psalm 111:9 (KJV)

He sent redemption unto his people: he hath commanded his covenant for ever: holy and reverend is his name.

Redemption refers supremely to the work of Christ on our behalf, whereby he purchases us, he ransoms us, at the price of his own life, securing our deliverance from the bondage and condemnation of sin.

Psalm 111:9

He sent redemption unto his people: he hath commanded his covenant for ever: holy and reverend is his name.

The New Testament speaks of Christ's saving work in this way frequently. God had a definite purpose in redeeming. At the most basic level redemption fixes a problem, and the Bible confronts us with the uncomfortable problem all humans share: we are cursed because of our inability to live up to the requirements of God’s law. Galatians 3:10 (KJV) For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them.

Redemption delivers from the eternal consequences of sin, but it also gives life an immediate purpose. As if to underline this point, Peter sums up life before coming to know God through Jesus Christ as “aimless”.

1Peter 1:18 Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers;

This year and forever we shall have All-Round Redemption in every area of our lives in Jesus Name. Psalm 130 vs.7: Let Israel hope in the Lord: for with the Lord there is mercy, and with him is plenteous redemption.

Everyone is in need of redemption. Our natural condition was characterized by guilt: “all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God”. Christ’s redemption has freed us from guilt, being “justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus”

Romans 3:23-24(KJV):

23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;

24 Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:

Ephesians 1:5-6 (KJV)

5 Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will,

6 To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved.

Heavenly Father, thank You for redeeming us by mercy. Let us dwell in Your amazing Love forever in the year 2024 and forever.

Amen

God is faithful to fulfill His promises

Hebrews 11:11

By faith, even Sarah herself received power to conceive, and she bore a child when she was past age, since she counted him faithful who had promised.

Faith enabled Abraham to become a father, even though he was old and Sarah had never been able to have children. Abraham trusted that God would keep his promise. Faith allows us to have a personal relationship with God and to trust in His promises. By faith Noah, being warned by God concerning events as yet unseen, in reverent fear constructed an ark for the saving of his household. By this he condemned the world and became an heir of the righteousness that comes by faith.” Faith gives us hope and helps us to endure difficult circumstances. Without faith, it is impossible to please God. God has the answers and the strength we need to face any challenge before us. Joshua 1:9 Haven’t I commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Don’t be afraid. Don’t be dismayed, for Yahweh your Godis with you wherever you go.”

There’s a lot we can learn from the life of Joshua. He didn’t have all the answers for the challenges before him. Like Joshua, we seldom have all the answers to our personal challenges. I want you to know that the Lord will always be with us in whatever circumstance. God has the answers and the strength we need to face any challenge before us. He was with Joshua, and He will be with us. I encourage you to have faith. Trust that God will give you what you need to succeed. God is Faithful and He is completely Trustworthy.

PSALM 147

(Psalm 147: 1-6 KJV)

1 Praise ye the Lord: for it is good to sing praises unto our God; for it is pleasant; and praise is comely.

²The Lord doth build up Jerusalem: he gathereth together the outcasts of Israel.

³He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds.

⁴He telleth the number of the stars; he calleth them all by their names.

⁵Great is our Lord, and of great power: his understanding is infinite.

⁶The Lord lifteth up the meek: he casteth the wicked down to the ground.

There is power in praising God. No matter how many problems you have, learn to count your blessings, name them one by one, and it will surprise you what the Lord has done.

Most of all we should praise the Lord because God is happy when we praise him.

(Psalm 22:3 KJV) But thou art holy, O thou that inhabitest the praises of Israel.

The Reasons why we should praise the Lord:

We have so many reasons to praise the Lord but most of all:

1. We should praise God for the breath of Life. When there is life, there is Hope.

2. We should praise him for His protection over us, few are the dangers we see, many are the dangers God protected us from without us being aware of it.

3. God is a merciful God, we should always praise him for His mercy.

4. Praise bring miracle; when all fail, try praise. God is moved by our praise.

5. The list is unending, what about His purpose for creating us. God's plan for creating us was intentional and deliberate, let's always remember to praise God for this.

May God bless us and teach us to know how to praise him (Amen).

Life Everlasting

God’s Love is Eternal, Pure and Unconditional. No matter what we are facing right now. No matter how difficult the situation is, it won't last forever. GOD'S LOVE STANDS FIRM AND SECURE. One of the main purpose of HIS LOVE for us is that we may have life everlasting.

What do we have to do to have Life Everlasting?

Answer: John 10:27 - 28 (KJV)

27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:

28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.

The instruction is clear and straightforward. Jesus is saying today follow me. The Lord is the author and the finisher of our faith.

„Trust and obey, for there is no other way to be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey“.

The journey of Life is not easy but with God on our side we are more than able. God loves and cares for us.

Here is a poem I composed some years back.

THE PATHS OF LIFE

Each morning human wakes.

He tends toward two paths:

A path full of enjoyment and deceit,

you walk it with pleasures of the World and pride.

But there is a path that is so narrow,

and you can only walk it with God by your side.

No extra luggage is required.

People think it’s a very difficult path,

but the LORD has made it easy, saying:

I am the author and the finisher of your faith.

1 John 5:10-12

10 He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son.

11 And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.

12 He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.

May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with us all this new month and forever, Amen

Watch Word for the Month of September- Psalm 3:16-17

¹⁶For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

¹⁷For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

(Psalm 16:1-6 KJV)

1 Preserve me, O God: for in thee do I put my trust.

²O my soul, thou hast said unto the Lord, Thou art my Lord: my goodness extendeth not to thee;

³But to the saints that are in the earth, and to the excellent, in whom is all my delight.

⁴Their sorrows shall be multiplied that hasten after another god: their drink offerings of blood will I not offer, nor take up their names into my lips.

⁵The Lord is the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup: thou maintainest my lot.

⁶The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places; yea, I have a goodly heritage.

God is an awesome God. He is a great king over all. According to the verse 1 of Psalm 16 we should endeavour to put our total hope in God and trust him for his divine guidance and care in the journey of our lives.

Our trust in God should not just be of mere confession but the one full of fulfilment and this we can achieve by choosing God as our portion in this season and forever.

(Matthew 16:26 KJV) For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?

Having Jesus Christ, as our portion of inheritance in this World is a great thing, according to the verse 6 of this Psalm it is a beautiful inheritance. Christ in us is the hope of glory; nothing can be compare to Jesus Christ in us.

I faced some opposition to be precise in year 2010 and then I know the real meaning of Jesus Christ in me. He fought and won the battle I would not have ever won; he defeated the enemies of Christ.

God is good and He deserves to be put above all things.

May the Lord bless you and grant you all your heart desires (Amen).

In Christ we are completely victorious. We are winners that is what the Bible says - 2 Corinthians 2:14 (KJV) Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place.

We have a Mighty God who loves us with unconditional love and fights for us in all circumstances. His banner over us is love.

Yes we all face challenges and we all have obstacles to overcome. Yes the journey is not easy. Of course the righteous will suffer many afflictions. But glory be to God because the God Almighty will deliver the righteous person from them - Psalm 34:19 (KJV) Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the Lord delivereth him out of them all.

The Lord will make our suffering to work for our ultimate good - Romans 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

Satan is our adversary. He sends all kinds of life-defeating, joy-stealing attacks to threaten the well-being and faith of God’s children. The Lord says: we should not fear - Psalm 27:1 (KJV) The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?

Isaiah 12: 1-6 (KJV)

1 And in that day thou shalt say, O Lord, I will praise thee: though thou wast angry with me, thine anger is turned away, and thou comfortedst me.

2 Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and not be afraid: for the Lord Jehovah is my strength and my song; he also is become my salvation.

3 Therefore with joy shall ye draw water out of the wells of salvation.

4 And in that day shall ye say, Praise the Lord, call upon his name, declare his doings among the people, make mention that his name is exalted.

5 Sing unto the Lord; for he hath done excellent things: this is known in all the earth.

6 Cry out and shout, thou inhabitant of Zion: for great is the Holy One of Israel in the midst of thee.

The Lord is our Strength, our Stronghold, our Refuge. His praise shall continually be in our mouth. We find our purpose and life in Him. He never disappoints. Whatever happens to us, is permitted by God. The circumstances will work all together for our good. Thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ, and that makes us more than conquerors through Christ who loves us.

What is Forgiveness?

Forgiveness is the act of pardoning an offender. Forgiveness is a gift and an act of kindness; it is indeed the greatest act of kindness you can give to yourself.

Sometimes we find it so hard to forgive people who offend us. Most times the people who offend us are those whom we trust most, someone we look up to, at times the very people whom we love the most and cherish. Forgiving can be hard, especially when someone hurts us.

What does the Bible teaches us about forgiveness?

One of the main purpose of christianity is forgiveness. In actual fact forgiveness ist one of the major teachings of our Lord Jesus Christ.

(Matthew 6:14-15 KJV)

¹⁴For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you:

¹⁵But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

(Ephesians 1:7 KJV)

In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;

Through the Blood of our Lord Jesus Christ we have redemption and this redemption is the forgiveness of sins.

Why is it so hard to forgive?

1. sometimes we were so wounded by people we trusted most. The wound may have been old, but the pain remains fresh.

2. sometimes people treated others unfairly in order to maximize their own power. We often find it difficult to forgive because they've wounded us to our very soul.

What does God does with our sins?

- He erases them

Isaiah 43:24-25 KJV

²⁴Thou hast bought me no sweet cane with money, neither hast thou filled me with the fat of thy sacrifices: but thou hast made me to serve with thy sins, thou hast wearied me with thine iniquities.

²⁵I, even I, am he that blotteth out thy transgressions for mine own sake, and will not remember thy sins.

- He does not record them

Psalm 32:2 KJV

Blessed is the man unto whom the Lord imputeth not iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no guile.

- He totally removes them

Psalm 103:12 KJV

As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us.

- He nails them to the cross

Colossians 2: 13-14 KJV

¹³And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses;

¹⁴Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;

Why do we have to forgive others?

1. From a Gracious God we receive forgiveness; we have all sinned against God

2. Forgiving someone is a difficult thing to do, but it's a necessity for our well-being; Forgiveness is a gift you give to yourself: It improves our life by improving our physical and emotional health.

3. Forgiving someone who has hurt you could be the greatest challenge of your life. But if you choose to forgive, you glorify God and reveal His character to those around you.

Jesus died on the cross not because something was wrong with him, but because everything was wrong with us.

Forgiveness and being reconciled are not about pretending that things are other than they are. It is not patting one another on the back and turning blind eye to the wrong.

Forgiveness looks sin in the eye and speaks the costly words : "I forgive you."

In most cases, the only way to forgive is by remembering. It is important that we do not make a simplistic connection between forgiving and forgetting. True forgiveness requires a careful look at what has actually happened to us. It is possible that we genuinely do not remember what someone has done against us, but most often it is largely a mistake to say, "Forgive and forget." Rather, the judgment of grace enables us, through the power of Holy Spirit, to remember well and deal with it.

- True forgiveness requires the offender to own sin repentantly.

- Genuine repentance goes deeper than apology or the expression of regret.

- forgiveness is given graciously and generously; if they repent, forgive them.

Forgiveness doesn't mean forgetting to remember, but remembering to forget.

O Lord our GOD, grant us the Grace to genuinely forgive those who ask us for forgiveness.

Sometimes the situations in our lives may put us off and it seems like there's no way out. This type of condition can be referred to as dry bone in the valley.

But the Lord has a word of encouragement for us, which can be found in the book of Ezekiel Chapter 37 (KJV).

No matter what we are going through, the Lord has solution to our problems. All we have to do is to speak to the situation in Faith and prophecy into our Lives.

What do we require to do in order for the dry bones in our lives to rise again:

1. We have to be born again i.e born of GOD and HOLY SPIRIT.

2. We must have Faith in GOD

3. We should be prayerful

4. We should put on the whole Armor of GOD (read Ephesians 6: 10 - 18 KJV).

GOD bless you (Amen).

(Psalm 16:1-6 KJV)

1 Preserve me, O God: for in thee do I put my trust.

²O my soul, thou hast said unto the Lord, Thou art my Lord: my goodness extendeth not to thee;

³But to the saints that are in the earth, and to the excellent, in whom is all my delight.

⁴Their sorrows shall be multiplied that hasten after another god: their drink offerings of blood will I not offer, nor take up their names into my lips.

⁵The Lord is the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup: thou maintainest my lot.

⁶The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places; yea, I have a goodly heritage.

Our trust in God should not just be of mere confession but the one full of fulfilment and this we can achieve by choosing God as our portion in this season and forever.

(Matthew 16:26 KJV) For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?

So many situations in my life made me to know the real meaning of Jesus Christ in me. He fought and won the battles I would not have ever won; he defeated the enemies of Christ. God is good and He deserves to be put above all things.

May the Lord bless you and grant you all your heart desires (Amen).

God is always on time. God can do everything except one thing - he never lies.

His perspective is different from ours.

(Isaiah 55:8-9)

8 For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord.

9 For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.

Have you ever asked God to grant you your heart’s desire and it seems as if He wouldn’t answer? Does that mean that our heavenly Father has forsaken or forgotten us? The answer is NO.

The good news is that God does not forget whatever we ask Him according to His will. God has perfect timing for everything. We should learn to wait patiently on the Lord. His timing is the best. Submit your Will to God, because he loves you and has good plans for you. God knows the appropriate time to give us what we desire.

Isaiah 60:22 A little one shall become a thousand, and a small one a strong nation: I the Lord will hasten it in his time.

God knows the appropriate time to give us what we desire. He guides each step we take because He loves us. He is a very present help in times of trouble.

(Psalm 46:1 KJV) God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.
