Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;)
Hebrews 10:23
These golden autumn days mark a near-finishing of another year. Think back to the hopes and plans you made at the beginning of 2025. Did you see something come to pass - perhaps a goal accomplished, a good habit solidified, or a spiritual victory? We should celebrate those wins, and thank God for each one!
November, the month of Thanksgiving, is the perfect time to reflect on all of it. A simple way to do that is to write them down and then share it. Taking time to count our blessings is a way of encouraging others, glorifying God, and reminding ourselves that God is always faithfully working on our behalf!
Yet, maybe you feel that 2025 hasn’t been the year you hoped it would be, and that all the flaws and failures seem to be highlighted in your memory. Or maybe you just feel tired. We need to remember that the enemy wants to wear down the saints, and he’s a notorious gaslighter. Satan really doesn’t want us to keep moving on into the territory, promise, or dream that God has already given us and will try to speak doubt into our minds.
During one October revival service, Bro. Guendoo made a great point: “Some of us are so caught up in the battle of the mind that we are not walking in the full authority of the Lord.” We need to remember who we are. We are overcomers and we serve a God who keeps his promises. He will take us to the promise. Don’t let your problem keep you from pushing forward. Just keep going!
