Dear friend,

 

God has a plan for your life.  How can you discover God’s plan for you?

 

Call to me and I will answer you and show you great and mighty things, which you do not know.

Jeremiah 33:3 (NASB)

 

Call out to God in prayer and ask Him what He wants you to do next in your life. Jesus promises us that He is our Good Shepherd and as His sheep or His lamb, we will recognize His voice when He speaks to us.

 

My sheep listen to My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me; 

and I give them eternal life, and they will never perish; and no one will snatch them out of My hand.

John 10:27,28 (NASB)

 

When you grow confident in hearing God’s voice, you become unstoppable as a believer.  You know that eternal life is promised to you and you will trust the voice of Jesus, your Good Shepherd.

 

I want to encourage you today to follow the leading of the Holy Spirit and dream God’s dreams for your future.  Trust God!  Our God is a planner!

 

Praise God!

 

Pastor Jo

Pastor Jo emphasizes that a deep belief in God’s love is the foundation for trusting His care and provision. We are encouraged not to become "familiar with doing without," because those who seek the Lord are promised that they will not lack any beneficial thing. Drawing a beautiful comparison, the excerpt notes that while we may think often of those we love most, God’s thoughts toward us are even more numerous than the grains of sand. By recognizing that God is constantly mindful of us, we can confidently talk to Him in prayer, offering our faith and speaking His Word. Ultimately, because we are the focus of His unending affection, we can surrender every concern to Him, resting in the absolute certainty that He cares for us and will lead us into a life of abundance.

Pastor Jo teaches that God is active and alert, watching over His Word to ensure it is performed. Just as Romans 10:10-11 emphasizes that belief in the heart and confession with the mouth lead to salvation without shame, our speech serves as a spiritual "pass key." This key, backed by the Holy Spirit, has the power to open any closed door in our lives. According to Isaiah 55:11, God’s Word never returns void; it always accomplishes His purpose and prospers wherever it is sent. When we speak Scripture with faith, we are using God’s own authority to move forward, knowing He loves to hear His children declare His truths. By aligning our mouths with His promises, we unlock a future where His Word never fails.

Pastor Jo highlights that while we are often "programmed" by the world, we have the power to reprogram our minds through God’s help. Romans 12:2 teaches that transformation begins by changing the way we think, allowing us to discern God’s perfect will. Because God knows us intimately—even our unspoken thoughts as described in Psalm 139—He is our greatest partner in mental renewal. When our thoughts stray from biblical truth, we are encouraged by 2 Corinthians 10:5 to take every thought captive, casting down arguments that contradict God’s knowledge. By commanding our thoughts to submit to the obedience of Christ and agree with His Word, we find a foundation that never fails. Ultimately, aligning our minds with Scripture is the key to walking in the victory and peace God intended for us.

Pastor Jo teaches that God pays close attention to our speech, as both the heart and the mouth are essential for transformation. Just as Romans 10:9-10 explains that salvation requires both believing in the heart and declaring with the mouth, this same principle applies to opening doors for our future. Reflecting on her own journey as a widow, Pastor Jo describes the necessity of writing down scriptures and persistently declaring God's promises even when tempted by doubt. By remaining as persistent as the "energizer bunny" and declaring that God's Word will come to pass, we can line up our future with His power. This year, don't stop speaking the truth; there is supernatural power in the Word of God to bring victory to your life.

As we enter 2026, Pastor Jo reminds us that our words act as the architect of our future, setting the boundaries for what we will experience. To walk in victory, we must refuse to project past mistakes into our future and instead align our speech with God’s promises. By meditating on the Word and following the guidance of the Holy Spirit, we access the strength and courage commanded in Joshua 1:8-9. Because the power of life and death resides in the tongue, we should never speak doubt, but rather trust in the "future and a hope" promised in Jeremiah 29:11. God has a successful plan for your year; believe His Word and speak only of the victory He has already placed within you.
