4 Keypoints From: New Year New Resolution 3

  • Many people don't have a problem with asking for help from someone 'superior' to them, but find it difficult to seek help from people they consider beneath them. (This sort of attitude robs many people of their blessings)
  • This year, don't let pride hold you back from the help you can get to fulfil your destiny.
  • Any level of self-esteem that makes people afraid to approach you is pride.
  • Remember, God resists the proud and gives grace to the humble. -James 4:6

    • Memorise: Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up. -James 4:10

    You need to humble yourself, smile more, speak warmly to people, and make it easy for them to speak to you.

    2 Keypoints From: New Year Resolution 2

  • I will open my mouth and tell God exactly how things are with me. (rather than pretending that all is well, when all is not).
  • I will not wait until I am about to lose things that are precious to me before I cry out like the widow in 2 Kings 4:1-7 did.

    • “This year, ensure that you do not pretend or form before God. Tell Him exactly where the shoe hurts. Ask Him for help more thant ever before, and He will surely answer you. -Matthew 21:22”

    Memorise: Ask, and it shalll be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you; -Matthew 7:7

    Stop suffering in silence, tell God all your needs this year.

    2 Keypoints From: New Year Resolution 1

    “Jacob laboured for 14 years to get the woman he wanted to marry while Isaac simply took a stroll and came back with a wife; One had favour, the other exerted labour. -Genesis 29:18-30, 24:63-67”

    As a resolution, take some deliberate steps towards basking in diving favour for the rest of your life, by deciding that:
  • I will praise and worship God intentionally, with all my heart and strength, speaking of His Goodness. -Psalm 103:1
  • Like David who also enjoyed divine favour all through his life, I will bless the Lord at all times, His praise shall continually be in my mouth. -Psalm 34:1, -Psalm 145:1-2

    • Spend some quality time praising God today and make this a daily practice going forward.

    MEMORISE: While I live will I praise the LORD: I will sing praises unto my God while I have any being. -Psalm 146:2

    3 Keypoints From: Don′t Be Greedy

  • You create a problem for your family when you are greedy. A greedy person ambushes his own life. -Proverbs 1:17-19
  • What you are greedily desiring can be yours if only you will patiently go through the right process.
  • Greed is an invitation to take unlawfully what is not yours. A greedy fellow has no gratitude for God's blessings in his or her life and believes in snatching what belong to others.

    • “For some greedy people, either their real pain is on the way, or they are hiding it, while showing off their ill-gotten wealth, parading themselves as smart. Don't get tempted to become like them.”

    Memorise: He that is greedy of gain troubleth his own house; but he that hateth gifts shall live. -Proverbs 15:27

    Those who allow greed to override contentment in their lives will eventually lose what they have.

  • When you find yourself at a crossroads, listen: you would hear a word behind you, showing you the way. -Isaiah 30:21

    • Memorise: I wil go before thee, and make the crooked places straight: I will break in pieces the gates of brass, and cut in sunder the bars of iron: -Isaiah 45:2

    3 Keypoints From: Talk Is Cheap

  • If you talk about prayer so well and you don't pray, all the problems that follow prayerlessness will keep following you.
  • If you have not yet done that thing, you have no business teaching it. If it is really valuable as you claim it is, the you should do it first. -Acts 1:1, James 3:1
  • When you teach what you don't do, that's hypocrisy. It could derail the followers to Hell. If you cannot practive it, stop teaching it. -Matthew 18:6

    • “Some people are sound in scriptures, yet the word of God does not seem to be yielding anything in their lives. Mostly because they only know the Scriptures, they don't live by it.”

    Memorise: The former treatise have I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus began both to do and teach, -Acts 1:1

    2 Keypoints From: Attracting God′s Blessings 2

  • When God sees holiness in the life of a person, He pours His blessings on him or her in abundance.
  • You can attract so much of God's blessings to yourself that at a point, you would say, "God this is too much".

    • “You don't know what you miss when you refuse to live holy. I advise you to try it and you would see how God will transform your life completely.”

    Memorise: And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to observe and do all his commandments which I command thee this day, that the LOrd thy God will set thee on high above all nations of the earth: -Deuteronomy 28:1

    3 Keypoints From: Attracting God′s blessings 1

  • The choice you make between living holy and committing sin determines what you attract to your life - whether blessings or curses.
  • Blessings don't come without a cause (e.g: Genesis 27:1-4). If you want God to bless you, do His will and please Him always.
  • Don't mistake just having money for divine blessings. A truly blessed man has all round peace and prosperity.

    • “Holiness attracts God's blessings.”

    Memorise: And all these blessings shall come on thee, and overtake thee, if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God. -Deuteronomy 28:2

    4 Keypoints From: Make Heaven Rejoice

  • Give the Celebrant of the day His own ‘Christmas chicken’ too. (If you win a soul, then a feast would be declared in heaven because of you.)
  • When you post pictures on social media, add a message there that you know will hit unbelievers.
  • When you give to the poor during this season, chip in a message about the gospel.
  • When you are sending celebratory messages out, put something about salvation in it.

    • “Don’t forget to give the Celebrant of today what He really wants.”

    Memorise: I say unto you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just persons, which need no repentance. -Luke 15:7
