Another New Year has arrived and with it is another opportunity for reflection and renewal. A new chapter in our book of life began at 12.01 am on January 1, 2022. It is up to us to give God the pen to write the pages of the story of our lives or we keep the pen and write our own stories through the ink of choice. In letting go and letting God take absolute control of our lives, things will eventually turn around in our favor.
Praying 2022 brings us good tidings. We declare by faith we will not be found wanting as the Lord will answer and lead us where we ought to go. With God’s grace, mercy, power, and the Holy Spirit directing our steps throughout this year, it shall be well with us, in Jesus’ name.
Prayer is the master key – it opens all kinds of doors. Let us saturate 2022 in prayer so we can walk into many unexpected, open doors, in Jesus’ name.
