NEW YEAR’S RESOLUTION: ZECHARIAH 4:6

ZECHARIAH 4:6(Then 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 LORD of hosts)

I want to use this opportunity to welcome all my readers to this great New Year in Jesus name. A year that’s full of promise. How do we make the best out of this great year knowing that time is not anyone’s friend? Since we cannot pause time, what we do from the beginning of the year is very important because it sets a stage for our testimonies at the end of the year.  Thank God for last year, it was a wonderful year, many are in the grave but we made it, we give God the glory. Don’t dwell on the disappointment of last year; it is gone, what you do with the opportunity that God has given to you to see this year is more important now. Life is a race and you have another chance to start the race of this year.

Making a New Year's resolution is a good thing because he who fails to plan has registered automatically in the school of failure but that will not be you again in Jesus name. If a particular issue keeps resurfacing in your do away list every year, that’s exactly where the setback is coming from and it needs to be dealt with once and for all. Most importantly as we make our New Year’s resolution let not forget to make God our number one priority. I call it divine lobby. Matthew 6:33(But seek ye first the Kingdom of God and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you). Every year, we keep making New Year’s resolutions that never see the light of the next day, forgetting it is not by power nor by might but by the spirit of God.  It is a good thing that we recognize the need to change levels but the change should begin with our mentality. Our mentality towards God and life need to be examined. If we keep doing things the same way, we will continue to have the same result. You have used all you know long enough and your situation is still the same; it is never too late to try something else. There is always a room for improvement even if you think you are on the right track.  To sustain our vow and to get a desired result, we need the help of the Holy Spirit, especially in those aspects of our life that keep resurfacing in our list every year. If I were you I will put all my energy in it as you take it to God in prayer and fasting. Matthew 17:21(Howbeit this kind goeth not out but by prayer and fasting). It is a stubborn situation that has made itself a stumbling block for your forward movement. Don’t watch and see it ruin your plan this year again. You have been trying to use your own power and it’s very frustrating believe me because I have been there and I know exactly how it feels. The good news is that your freedom has finally come in Jesus' name. I don’t know what your own issues are. It may be health challenge, addiction, set back, promotion, attitudinal problem. They are not too much for God to handle. He is waiting for you to call him for help. Make up your mind that you want a change, and then present your list to God in prayer and fasting. The grace you need will be released to you speedily in Jesus name. The first step is salvation if you are not yet saved. If you are once saved and backslide you can reconnect. John 1:12(But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name). In conclusion you need power to become whatever you desire this year and that power lies on God who can change any situation. Align yourself with God and you will have a change of story in Jesus name.

Lord Jesus, I come to you today, I am a sinner, and I cannot help myself, forgive me my sins, and cleanse me with your precious blood. Deliver me from sin and Satan to serve the living God. Lord Jesus, I accept you as my Lord and savior. Now I know I am Born Again, Amen.
