Hey Girrrl Stop Nation! We are about to enter a new year and a new decade and we need to get our planning, goals and intentions in our minds and on paper now! What will be your defining word for 2020? What one word will you pick to guide you in the coming year and make it a successful one?
Your word could be something like:
-Courage
-Do
-Bold
-Fearless
And the list goes on! Think about what your word should be, pray about it also and see what Word God shows you. This word is for you and should be your motivator in all endeavors! In addition to your defining word, I want to encourage all of you to choose a defining scripture for 2020! I know this will be difficult as there are so many but do your best to narrow it down to one!
I’m excited to share my defining word and scripture for 2020 with you all:
Self-belief
Ephesians 3:20
Self-belief is my word for 2020 because I do believe it is one area that has held me back. There’s a twinge of doubt on my part as to whether I can do ‘this’ or ‘that’ and it is that twinge that has kept me immobilized. As I began to ponder on this notion I was led to this scripture, Ephesians 3:20, “Now unto Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us.” I serve a God who is able and because God is able, He empowers me to be ABLE (no pun intended) to tackle any task or endeavor I set out to do! The scripture goes on to say that God is able to do exceedingly, abundantly above all I can ask or even think! This just encourages me to dream bigger and not doubt because God can do it bigger and better than I can even imagine! But here is the part that really coincides with my defining word: ‘according to the power that works in us’ – this is where I can draw my ‘self-belief’ from! God says that when you come into this family of faith you now have my Holy Spirit living on the inside of you and it is the Holy Ghost which gives us power! Because of this power, I can truly do all things through Christ which strengthens me (Philippians 4:13) and this fuels my self-belief!
God is simply saying:
You Have What Works, Now Work It!
Ok, 2020 it’s on!!
