Good morning letter from CHRIST 🙂 May the joy and peace of CHRIST be your sharing. Happy end of the year 2022 and excellent year 2023!
I believe that it is good to listen to GOD before making resolutions. I believe that the blessing of the LORD that enriches, and is followed by no sorrow (Proverbs 10:22) is more in obedience than good intentions. I would rather be late with GOD than early without him.
Before you throw away your 2022 calendar, I encourage you to take a moment to thank the LORD for what He has done, what you have learned and the person you became during this year. What did he do in January? What did you learn in February? What did you get in March? What did you correct in April? Who did you meet in May? What choices did you make in June? Who did you bring to the LORD in August? Who were your role models in September? Who or what did you separate from in October? What prophetic word did you receive in November? What were you delivered from in December? What have you been preserved from? What adversity did you overcome? What sorrow have you been comforted from? GOD has been good, give thanks, praise and shout for joy!
What are your aspirations for the year 2023? What do you want to progress in? What will be your priorities? Where is GOD asking you to stay? Where is he asking you to go? For whom is he asking you to pray? Which stake is he asking you to strengthen (Isaiah 54:2-3)? What space is He asking you to enlarge? For what fulfillment is He asking you to prepare yourself? In what will you invest your money? Where will you give offerings? Where will you give your tithes? In which relationships is he asking you to invest? Which training will you follow? What project will you undertake? Who should you forgive? To whom should you ask forgiveness? From whom should you separate? With whom should you reconcile? Are you manifesting the fruit of the HOLY SPIRIT (Galatians 5:22-24)?🙂 Don't be in a hurry to answer and don't be sad if you don't have all the answers now. GOD does everything good in its time (Ecclesiastes 3:11). I don't have all the answers either 🙂 The gift of prophecy is no substitute for fellowship. GOD loves you and has plans for you. Trust him and obey.
1 As for other matters, brothers and sisters, pray for us that the message of the LORD may spread rapidly and be honored, just as it was with you. 2 And pray that we may be delivered from wicked and evil people, for not everyone has faith. 3 But the LORD is faithful, and he will strengthen you and protect you from the evil one. 4 We have confidence in the LORD that you are doing and will continue to do the things we command.5 May the LORD direct your hearts into GOD’s love and CHRIST’s perseverance. ( 2 Thessalonians 3 :1-5, NIV)
Put your outdoor work in order and get your fields ready; after that, build your house. (Proverbs 24 : 27, NIV)
My prayer for 2023:
That we progress in love, truth, holiness, fellowship, witness to CHRIST, knowledge and understanding of the Word.
May gratitude, peace, joy, patience, simplicity, creativity and discernment be our sharing.
Let there be no idols or roots of bitterness in our hearts.
May we exercise the spiritual gifts with wisdom.
May the grace of intercession and the ability to pray all types of prayer be multiplied.
May we be preserved from the snares of Satan and separated from evil company.
May we be in good health, preserved from epidemics, healed of all diseases.
That our physical and spiritual diet be healthy and balanced. That we have physical activities according to our needs. That those who are obese or have obese children receive the support they need. That we are protected from poisoning, food and drug intoxication and misdiagnosis.
May crises be for us opportunities to learn, invest and witness.
May our mouths declare the decrees and prophecies of the LORD.
May our houses stand firm (Matthew 7: 24-27), be financially blessed and surrounded by the wall of fire.
I wish I could tell you that you will not encounter any adversity in 2023, but that would be lying to you, despising the faith and the price paid by the persecuted Church and all those who serve GOD. But I can tell you that nothing is in vain in CHRIST. So no matter what happens, no matter what people say, no matter what the devil says, don't let go of the hand of JESUS. The enemy may wound your heel, but with JESUS you can crush his head (Genesis 3:15).
Be this fertile land, in which the seed of the word, watered with prayers and nurtured by obedience bears much fruit and blesses multitudes. Receive the grace to preserve and transmit what the HOLY SPIRIT gave you.
🙂 GOD bless you!
