The scriptures teach that where there is no vision, the people perish. We must make certain important decisions, if we are going to experience the continual blessings of God and grace.
You will continue to excel in 2025, if you decide to;
1. Take God seriously
When you learn to chase God, the blessing chases you (Matthew 6:33). Those who seek first the kingdom and the righteousness of God get blessed with things others chase. Hebrews 11 teaches that he that comes to the Lord must know that he is, and that he is the rewarder of them that diligently seek him. God is the rewarder of them that diligently seek Him.
2. Be transformed by the renewing of your mind:
Romans 12:1-3 reveals that the sure path to transformation is renewing your mind. We were called to come out; We cannot carry the past with us. Let us decide to embrace the new, that fits our future.
3. Be on a budget
Living is like deciding to build a tower, you need to first sit and count the cost. As the famous statement goes “failing to plan is planning to fail.” When you are in charge of your money, you escape the trap of being controlled by money. Let us learn to plan and manage our finances in 2025 for greater results.
4. Become exceptionally valuable
Develop the spirit of excellence. Strive to excel at what you do. Don’t settle from the applause of mediocrity. Daniel had an excellent spirit and he excelled. Develop your body, skills, character, work ethics and deliver results.
5. Foster strategic relationships
Your network determines your net worth. It’s important to be intentional about relationships. Foster relationships that preserve your values, provide you with leverage, reinforce you and hold you accountable.
6. Help others when you can
A liberal soul shall be made fat but put a limit on how much you give. You can’t just be giving without being refreshed. Take your Samaritan duties seriously but let every man bear his own burden.
7. Deliver results, giving value for money
You must be ready to deliver results when time and chance shows up. When Joseph was called to interpret the dream of the Pharaoh, he was ready to do so. When Daniel was called to interpret the handwriting on the wall, he was ready to do so. You must be up on your game and be ready to deliver results. Don’t be like clouds with water; may you be able to deliver results.
May you excel in 2025 and beyond in the name of Jesus Christ!
Amen
