Expect A New Thing In 2018

Updated: Jul 4



2018 is rapidly approaching, and greater opportunities await you on the horizon. It is time to stop the excuses and procrastinating. No more being complacent. No more waiting for your circumstances to get better. God, who is more than enough, wants to lavish His extravagant blessings on you in a way you have never experienced. 

The only means to experience this in the coming year is your mindset must change. Likewise, let nothing deter you from living a progressive life of victory. So, stop living up to the expectations of others, blaming others, and playing the victim. 


Be transformed by renewing your mind before you enter 2018. And do not be conformed to this world [any longer with its superficial values and customs], but be transformed and progressively changed [as you mature spiritually] by the renewing of your mind [focusing on godly values and ethical attitudes], so that you may prove [for yourselves] what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect [in His plan and purpose for you]. (Romans 12:2, AMP).

Otherwise, you will be stuck in the past, and God has better for you. Therefore, to go to the new level, focus on teachings that blesses you with critical thinking that leads you to a better path. Your word is a lamp to my feet And a light to my path. (Psalms 119:105). You cannot expect to improve and move forward when you continue to do things that only result in going around the revolving door of despair. It is time to stop lingering and move quickly beyond thinking as the culture around you thinks. Beloved, do not delay any longer and believe God can do anything regardless of what it looks like.

My Friend, decide now that enough is enough and no more going after that which only leads to your downfall. You must no longer hold onto that which gives you a false sense of security only to leave you drifting deeper into hopelessness. Be willing to embrace change because God wants to do something new in you in 2018. “Listen carefully, I am about to do a new thing, Now it will spring forth; (Isaiah 43:19). You must discern God’s will for your life by choosing right over wrong and truth from error. It only comes through your decision to partner with Jesus and allow Him access to your heart, mind, and soul. Then, your tomorrow will be better than today. This new year can be nothing compared to what you have ever experienced. More bountiful and prosperous in ways you never imagined. Prepare to witness God amaze you!


I pray the song; All Things New by Elevation Worship touches your soul.
