Happy New Year Beloved! Welcome to 2025! The year of the LORD! The year in God’s capable hands! The year of God’s kingdom glory! On this first day of 2025, we dedicate it to God for His kingdom purposes. We are entreating God to do again what He did in 2 Chronicles for the manifestation of His glory among His people.
That as God’s people gather to exalt Him, His fire will come among us, and His glory fill us as we have never seen before. That God’s Word will take preeminence in the lives of His people. When was the last time we experienced the glory of God or what we know as the tangible presence of God amid His people? LORD send your glory in our midst, we pray. May 2025 be a year marked for your glory! May your glory blanket the earth transforming lives and our communities.
However, it is repentance that precedes this kind of glory and the people of God are ready to do exactly what 2 Chronicles 7:14 states, “If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land.” God, we your people ask that Jesus Christ will be enthroned upon our hearts and lives. The more Jesus occupies the center of our hearts, the more the glory of God appears in us. The more we declare the goodness and love of our God, the more the radiance of Jesus shines through us. The more we love not only those who love us but those who also do not love us (this is how Jesus Christ lived and loved), the more the world will see the distinction of the body of Christ in this dark hour and begin to testify that we your people have indeed been with Jesus (Acts 4:13). Let the glory of God fall! We ask in Jesus Name!
In Christ's Love,
