• God is seen through His power, but His true nature is known by His character.

• God wants us to be partakers of the Divine Nature.

• Luciferian Error: The pursuit of God’s power without His character. .

• Your character is your values on display.

• This year, we must honor the Lord more than ever before.

• God does not respect status, title or possessions. He only respects godly character.

• God testified of three men for whom He had respect: Noah, Job, Daniel.

• Order your life so God can respect you.

• To grow into maturity, our diet must change.

• When Jesus tried to change their diet, many disciples left Him.

• The way the modern church presents Jesus and His message is underwhelming.

•  Jesus was not seeker-friendly. He was hungry-friendly, thirsty-friendly, truth-friendly, weary-friendly.

• Great Grace is available for the seriously thirsty.

• For those who are seriously thirsty, spiritual upgrade this year will be rapid.

• Grace grows, as we grow in grace. 

• Growing in Grace requires a continued upgrade in our appetite, desires and ambitions.

• To grow into maturity, our diet must change.

• By grace, the rights and status of Jesus were reallocated to us while our just punishment was transferred to Him.

• Some say favor is not fair. But God is fair, even when we do not see how.

• Grace is God’s power given to believers to do His work and to stand in the face of difficulties.

• Three dimensions of Grace: what God does for us, (favor and mercy), what God does through us, (spiritual gifts) and what God does in us, (transformation into Christlikeness.)

• They were still the Lord’s people, but they were no longer on the Lord’s side.

• When we live for ourselves, we are pleased. When we live for Christ, God is pleased.

• Great Grace is always God's response when His people please Him.

• Knowing the will of God must be preceded by a determination, a willingness to do the will of God, whatever, it may be. 

• A stumbling block for many Christians is insisting on first learning the will of God before deciding if they will comply. 

• When willingness precedes knowledge, it is an act of faith. 

• If we insist on first knowing, that would be walking by sight. 

This is a year to be radically faithful to the Lord.

Empire mindset is marked by selfishness. Kingdom mindset is marked by faithfulness.

Kingdom mindset humbly submits, even to the point of giving up its rights.

This is a year of faithful obedience to God, using the “Kingdom Principles” rather than “Empire Principles.”

Kingdom Principles: Faithful Selflessness

Empire Principles: Effective Self-promotion

A carnally minded Christian and an unregenerated person are often so similar you cannot tell the difference.

• The Lord will do strange things this year and it will take great humility, relying on the Holy Spirit to keep up with Him.

• This is not a year to tell God, but a year to ask God.

• This is not a year of negotiation, but a year of instruction.

• 2026 is a year of pursuing God’s priorities.. His Name, His will, His kingdom, the things of God, rather than the things of men.

• This is a year to recognize and reject distractions.

• God will show a difference between those who seek Him those who do not.

• Those who seek the Lord will find Him and all other things. Those who seek other things will miss the Lord.

• This is not a year to resist the Lord. Doing so will only slow down your own growth. 

• For as long as you are running the show called your life, you will be far from entering into the best that God has for you.

• There cannot be two captains of your destiny, and God will not fight you for the helm.

• Whatever You’ve been, God wants to make you better.
