If we loose sight of the truth that Jesus has done everything that requires doing, and we do not have to perform our way into His good books, this can have a massive positiver effect on keeping up momentum. A true Christian walk, by definition is a journey, in a forward direction towards the truth of the Gospel. If you can work on your belief in the truth that Jesus has qualified you for God’s favour, this helps to empower you when you feel you have not hit the mark. Knowing and believing this truth, will have a radical effect on your forward momentum this year. God has not only given you the desire to do His will, He has actually given you the power as well.

Right now at the beginning of the second month of this New Year, stop and take a deep breath, remind yourself that Jesus has paid the price, He has made you His righteousness and wants you to walk in His love and favour. Do not allow the enemy to bring you condemnation or allow him to accuse you of failure, rather focus on the true majesty of God and His desire to see you grow and walk in the victory He died to give you!

Believe and receive! It is the way of Jesus, any other way is based on your ability and your works, whcih are doomed to fail.

Journey this year and ask the Holy Spirit to open your mind to new truth you can believe in, this is what will keep your momentum.

The sense of “clean sheet” or “fresh start” can be quite daunting or very exciting, that depends on the type of person you have grown into.

During 2012, I want to encourage as many people as possible to open their minds to the incredible work that Jesus completed on their behalf! He came and carried out His mandate from the Father with  nothing left undone and the job totally finished.

What does this mean for you? Well as the year unfolds, I want to encourage you to find this out! Why not listen to our sermon podcasts and watch this blog space for some simple yet life transforming truths that will open a window of thinking to you that truly brings transformation to the way you see yourself, those around you and the world.

I thank God hat Jesus came to bring me super abundant life, I thank Him daily for the growing revelation He has given me through the Holy Spirit, that I am forgiven, restored, righteous and joy filled. This same truth is applicable to you as well. My prayer and encouragement for you is to find out what is yours in Christ and fully enjoy it and the power for living it releases to you.

Have a great year
