2024 IS MY YEAR OF DESTINY ALIGNMENT AND GREAT POSSIBILITIES
This year, 2024, I walk by faith and not by sight. I initiate new things in my life as Holy Spirit positions me for open doors, divine favor, optimal protection, abundant supply, supernatural health, and prosperity.
I step out of my comfort zone, out of confinements, out of fears and doubts as I journey with the Lord!
I align my faith with God’s power and I submit my will to the leading of Holy Spirit.
This year, I refuse to look at the things which are seen, for the things that are seen are temporal but the things which are not seen are eternal.
Holy Spirit goes before me to break down oppositions, obstacles, and confinements, allowing me to pass through and overcome every blockage.
This year, Holy Spirit is out in the front, leading me to BRING HOPE AND IMPACT MY COMMUNITY BY LEADING POPLE INTO A GROWING RELATIONSHIP WITH JESUS.
2024 is my Year of Destiny Alignment and Great Possibilities. Hallelujah!
