Happy new year!
Welcome to the first chapter of a Daily Dose of Treasure in 2023.
A lot happened in 2022, and there's a lot to be grateful for.
I got to experience moments that brought me closer to family and friends, and also, let's not forget incidents that pushed me further away from others.
I'm praying and declaring that this Year brings greater blessings.
I look forward to seeing a greater part of myself.
Through the year 2022, I got to figure out more of my self and learn to love myself in my strengths and weaknesses.
I got to check out acheivements from my list... A large aspect of my goals were ticked off even if they weren't earth quacking goals (notwithstanding, every acheivement is worth celebrating whether big or small).
Prayers were answered and successes were made.
Overall, I got to experience a closer relationship with Father and let me say, it has been an amazing time.
I got to learn prayer, trust, discipline, and so much more. I'm still looking forward to what Father is set to do in my littpe moments.
Looking Forward to 2023 Goals and Plans?
We all are looking forward to what 2023 has in store for us and it's thrilling how the new year just so happened to be on a Sunday because this is just in par with something I learnt recently.
When beginning a new stage or season, taking it to God first is a solid foundation to the rest of the year.
"It doesn't necessarily have to be like that!" Someone might say but no matter how many plans and goals you have, if God is not in support of it, it will never be as fulfilling as you're hoping for.
In the story of David, there were key pointa that he took that really sank in deep for me.
If you look into 1 Samuel you notice that before King Saul started his pursuit against David, three major factors were put in place;
1. David went to the Temple of God.
2. He asked for Bread.
3. He asked for Weapon.
Ordinary right?
Here's a simple answer I received;
David was so cautious of the power of God that he went to seek (ask) God's intervention.
The 'Bread' and 'Weapon' represents 'sustainance' and 'preservation' respectively.
He was quick to ask God for bread (sustainance) for the journey ahead and weapon (Preservation/protection) from his enemies on this said journey.
That is what we should do in this season of a new year.
Even in situations where we have goals and ideas, it is best to go to God andask that he be put in front of that Journey.
My prayer is that we receive the good things this season and year offers us.
God loves you 😌
