Word for the day: “Leaders be advised
Good morning, Beloved Leaders,
Today’s message is simply a gentle reminder from me. Reminding you that the Lord has great things in store for you. Yes, you have made it through 2024 and into 2025, and God be praised for keeping his power. We bless God for his faithfulness toward us; from everlasting to everlasting, God has been great and beyond all we could have imagined (Ephesians 3:20).
I am excited for the move of God as we forge ahead in this new year. God is taking you to new horizons; God is opening new doors of opportunity and favor; God is doing new things in your life. Yet, as we praise God for what he is about to do, we pause to give God thanks for what he has already done.
Read Psalm 1 and connect with God today like never before:
Blessed is the man Who walks not in the counsel of the [a]ungodly, Nor stands in the path of sinners, Nor sits in the seat of the scornful;
2 But his delight is in the law of the Lord, And in His law he [b]meditates day and night. 3 He shall be like a tree Planted by the [c]rivers of water,
That brings forth its fruit in its season, Whose leaf also shall not wither; And whatever he does shall prosper. 4 The ungodly are not so But are like the chaff which the wind drives away. 5 Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, Nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous. 6 For the Lord knows the way of the righteous, But the way of the ungodly shall perish.
