What is God saying about 2025?
In this message, Susan and I share some of the thoughts that the Holy Spirit has been bringing to us for this new year. We have an excitement about 2025, the year of our Lord.
For one, 2025 is a new beginning! We believe God is telling us to leave the past behind and press into the future God has planned for us. In Isaiah, God says:
“Do not remember the former things,
Or ponder the things of the past. Listen carefully, I am about to do a new thing,
Now it will spring forth;
Will you not be aware of it?
I will even put a road in the wilderness,
Rivers in the desert. (Isaiah 43:18-19, Amp15).
Maybe you've been beaten up, hurt, and waylaid by the circumstances of life. Perhaps someone has done you wrong, and it's taken all the wind out of your sails.
Maybe you're exasperated by your failures and weaknesses. If you’ve had failures in the past, repent, and get moving forward in 2025. Don’t wallow in defeat. It’s time to get up and get moving in the power of God. It's a new year! It's a new day!
Paul saw this too. He says:
Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus. (Philippians 3:13-14, NKJV).
The other thing we are hearing from the Lord for our lives and ministry in 2025 is “expansion.” As Isaiah says:
“Sing, O barren, You who have not borne! Break forth into singing, and cry aloud, You who have not labored with child! For more are the children of the desolate Than the children of the married woman,” says the LORD. “Enlarge the place of your tent, And let them stretch out the curtains of your dwellings; Do not spare; Lengthen your cords, And strengthen your stakes. For you shall expand to the right and to the left, And your descendants will inherit the nations, And make the desolate cities inhabited. (Isaiah 54:1-3, NKJV).
Maybe you’ve not seen much fruit in the past. Maybe your natural outlook is bleak. It’s time to remember that you are joined to the Lord. Plan to expand. Plan to reach more people. Plan to expand your territory.
It’s also time to strengthen your stakes. That is, strengthen your foundations. Be strong in Bible reading, prayer, and meditation. Be strong in the Lord and the power of His might.
Also, strengthen your relationships. And don’t give up on your relationship too easily. The way of the world now is to cancel relationships. If there are difficulties, just get that person out of your life, the world system says. But God says, be faithful. Love people! Be a blessing, and keep your relationships strong.
Susan and I are praying for you that you will have a wonderfully blessed prosperous 2025 and that what God does in your life will overflow to bless the world.
Thank you for being you, and following the will of the Lord in 2025, the year of our Lord!
