Let’s decide, with the help of the Holy Spirit, that 2023 will be a year that we will:
“Make a clean break with all cutting, backbiting, profane talk. Be gentle with one another, sensitive. Forgive one another as quickly and thoroughly as God in Christ forgave you.” (Ephesians 4:31-32 MSG)
In 2023 let’s keep our eyes on the eternal and not the temporary:
“So we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are unseen; for the things which are visible are temporal [just brief and fleeting], but the things which are invisible are everlasting and imperishable.” (II Corinthians 4:18 AMPC)
Expect God to show up in every area of your life in 2023:
“Be brave. Be strong. Don’t give up. Expect God to get here soon.” (Psalms 31:24 MSG)
Let’s determine that 2023 will be the year that we are taking loving God to the next level:
“Hear, O (YOUR NAME)! The Lord is our God, the Lord is one [the only God]! You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and mind and with all your soul and with all your strength [your entire being]. These words, which I am commanding you today, shall be [written] on your heart and mind.” (Deuteronomy 6:4-6 AMPC)
And let 2023 be the year that we never forget just how much God loves us:
“May the Master take you by the hand and lead you along the path of God’s love and Christ’s endurance.” (II Thessalonians 3:5 MSG)
Hear the voice of God saying to us as His Body and to each of us individually:
“(YOUR NAME), out looking for a place to rest, met God out looking for them! God told (YOUR NAME), "I've never quit loving you and never will. Expect love, love, and more love! And so now I'll start over with you and build you up again, dear (YOUR NAME)” (Jeremiah 31:3-4 MSG)
Be Encouraged! ❤

What a refreshing post to read! I agree..I know this year is a year my character and speech aligns with God's. I've been growing my relationship with the Holy Spirit so believe this year I bloom in the loving God. The more I grow intimately I feel closer than before.
