Sis, can you even believe it? 2025 is just around the corner! As we stand here on the edge of a brand-new year, let’s take a moment to pause, reflect, and recognize what God has done in your life this year. Whether you’ve walked through seasons of growth, healing, struggle, or triumph, one thing remains true—God has been faithful. And the good news? Sis, He’s not done with you yet.
Old You...Let’s talk about letting go. Sometimes, stepping into what’s next means leaving behind what’s no longer serving you. Maybe it’s the pain of disappointment, a season that’s run its course or even an old version of you that you’ve outgrown. Sis, hear me on this—God is calling you to release it. His Word says, “If anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here” (2 Corinthians 5:17). That’s your promise! So, whatever you’re still holding onto, let it go. You don’t need that weight where God is taking you.
New You...Oh, but let me tell you about 2025. It’s a blank canvas, and God’s got the brush in His hand. New dreams, new challenges, new levels—this is your year to embrace all that He has for you. Don’t be afraid of what’s ahead because every step is an opportunity to grow, thrive, and become the woman He’s called you to be. As it is written: “Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, Nor have entered into the heart of man The things which God has prepared for those who love Him.” (1 Corinthians 2:9). Sis, God’s plans for you are so much bigger than you could ever imagine.
Reset You...Before we rush into this next chapter, take a moment. Breathe. Release what needs to go—whether that’s unforgiveness, fear, doubt, or the idea that you’re not enough. Make space in your heart for God to move like never before. 2025 is about walking boldly in His purpose, free from the baggage of the past, and ready to receive His best.
A Prayer Just For You...Lord, thank you for bringing my sister through this year. You’ve been faithful through every high and low, and we trust you to continue your good work in her life. Lord, we release the things that no longer belong and ask for your guidance as she steps into 2025. Fill her with courage, peace, and a renewed sense of purpose. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
Action Step:
Take 10 minutes today to write down everything you’re ready to let go of—fears, hurts, or old habits. Then, pray over the list, asking God to help you release each item. Afterward, tear it up as a symbol of leaving it behind and stepping into the new.
Reflection Question:
What is one thing you need to release before stepping into 2025, and how can you invite God to help you move forward and beyond?
Closing Thoughts:
Sis, you’re not walking into this new year alone. I'm with you—cheering you on, praying for you, and standing in faith that the best is yet to come. Let’s step into 2025 with boldness, expecting God to blow our minds!
I Love You!
