What comes to mind when you think about preparing for a new year? To many, it feels like it’s time to reset. But a new year is more than the start of a new calendar and a series of things in your life. It’s about God opening a new chapter in your life, and you must be prepared for it.
The prodigal son thought he could live without his father, but he later realised he needed to return. In the same way, no matter how much you have sinned, God is always ready to forgive you. If you have turned away from God, come back to Him today. He is waiting for you with love and grace.
As you celebrate Christmas, it’s expedient to remember that Jesus is the reason for this advent season, not food, winter or because of the day in the calendar. Without Jesus, there wouldn’t have been Christmas. So, once you celebrate it with Christ consciousness in mind, you’ll not be carried away by the festive activities of people but rather deepen your reverence for Jesus Christ.
In Romans 16:17, Paul instructs believers to be vigilant and avoid individuals who cause division within the church. Unfortunately, prolonged involvement in a church community can expose believers to offences committed by fellow Christians. These offences may include betrayal, gossip, and acts of selfish ambition. While forgiving those who wrong us is essential, it is equally important to distance ourselves from those who persistently sow seeds of discord.
Your heart is where Jesus or the devil resides. It is a spiritual home. For this reason, if you do not allow Jesus into your heart, the devil will allow himself into your heart. Your heart cannot be empty, and your heart cannot bear two masters. That is the reason you must pay attention to the well-being of your innermost being.
In the season of singleness, you’re not just waiting for love; you’re being built for it—a love built on a shared love for God. So, learn how to pray and fast. When Christ is the foundation, love becomes more than an emotion – it becomes a covenant. Trust God’s timing and let that help you avoid toxic relationships that distract from your personal journey of self-discovery.
Everything Moses wrote in Genesis was not from his own mind. Instead, God inspired him to see all the revelations so that he could capture them in writing.
It is written in the Bible that nobody is supposed to separate what God joins together in holy matrimony [(speaking of marriages); see Matthew 19:6]. So, God hates divorce. That implies He has made provisions to address cheating in relationships too.
Take hold of your mind – don’t be ruled by just anything that flips through it. Whenever insecurity thoughts about yourself arise, focus on ‘whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable.’ Let your mind dwell on all that is excellent and praiseworthy, for these thoughts align with how God sees you and the unique purpose He has created you to fulfil.
The journey to discovering who you are isn’t found in isolating certain things you like and dislike about yourself but in understanding your complete God-given purpose. So, your true satisfaction comes from aligning with the bigger picture of what God has in mind.
Being moved by what you believe in as a Christian means living a life that reflects your faith and commitment to Christ in every decision and action. It is not about perfection but about consistently aligning your motives, choices, and conduct with the will of God.
While God may bless His children with riches, it is crucial to view wealth as a tool to serve others and advance His Kingdom rather than a means of self-gratification. By maintaining a heart rooted in humility, generosity, and unwavering devotion to God, you, as a Christian, can navigate the challenges of wealth while staying true to your faith and purpose.
