There seem to be strong anticipation by groups of people especially the christians concerning the year; almost and if not everything is based on it. This is when Pastors get vision for the new year and give prophetic inclinations to the future they term “New Year”. prophetic utterances are proclaimed “My Year of Abundance”, “My Year of Fulfilled Dreams”, “My Year of Take the Limits Off”, etc. i begin to get concerned about all this sheninigans concerning what some group of men call New Year.
Â
Do people really take stock of their lives and see if this particular prophesy is fulfilled because it belongs to that particular year? Are people really concerned about their lives or they just hope that everything would magically work out for them? If someone says this is your year of prosperity; do you actually work on it to make it as it was proclaimed to you? Do you actually exist on earth or you have a purpose? Do you actually follow the seasons of God in your life to know when a new day has dawned or you are just following the herds proclaiming a new year.

It’s a new year (blablablabla)
Whats the difference between 31st Dec 2006 and 1st Jan 2007? Absolutely nothing!
Just a numerical data enforced on us by some group of men and we call it new year.
In God, its a different thing entirely, its all about seasons and season differs depending on God’s programme in your life. March 7th which is my birthday may be a new year to me, Dec 31st may be a new year depending on God’s programme for your life.
We have been stifled by all this men-imposed calculations of the earth revolving round the sun and calling it a year, moon revolving round the earth and calling it a month and earth spinning on it’s axis and calling it a day. These are one of the greatest inhibition of Men which affects the general psyche of a believer.
There is nothing new about Jan 1st, just a day like any other. Lets relax and try to figure the seasons of the Kingdom of God in our lives then I believe all this men-imposed dates would then have meaning until then……………..
