“Ye have compassed this mountain long enough: turn you northward.” – Deuteronomy 2:3 (KJV)
Dearly Beloved,
Happy New Month! We give all glory to God for the privilege of witnessing the third month of this year, our year of landmark accomplishments. It is a blessing to be among the living, and we do not take this grace for granted. As we journey forward, it is time to take decisive steps toward achieving the goals, visions, and dreams that God has placed in our hearts for this year.
The passage above reminds us that we have circled a particular mountain long enough. For some, this mountain may represent stagnation, fear, doubt, complacency, lack of vision, or limiting beliefs. Whatever it is that has held you back or hindered your progress, it is time to break free and move forward.
- Are you stuck on the mountain of “No Vision”, where you lack clarity about your purpose?
- Are you on the mountain of “No Planning”, where you have dreams but no concrete steps to achieve them?
- Are you trapped in the mountain of “No Faith”, where fear and unbelief overshadow your trust in God?
- Are you held back by the mountain of “No Possibilities”, where you see only obstacles instead of opportunities?
God is saying, Enough is enough! It is time to turn northward. It is time to align yourself with His divine direction and move forward in faith. Going in circles leads nowhere, but when God gives a direction, it is for progress, growth, and breakthrough. Are you ready to follow His leading this month?
Our God is the Good Shepherd, and He knows the way to your success, blessings, and breakthroughs. As the shepherd leads his sheep to green pastures and still waters, so does God desire to lead you into His perfect plan for your life.
“But he knoweth the way that I take: when he hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold.” – Job 23:10 (KJV)
Just as God instructed the Israelites to turn northward, He is also giving you a direction this year – A year of landmark. Will you heed His call? There is a way that seems right to man, but the end of it is destruction (Proverbs 14:12). May you not walk the wrong path in Jesus’ name!
Finally, let me encourage you to follow “The Way” this month. Jesus Christ is the Way, the Truth, and the Life (John 14:6). Have you surrendered your life to Him? If you have, congratulations—you are on the right path. But if you have not, do not delay. Accept Him today, and it shall be well with your soul.
Once again, Happy New Month! May you experience divine progress, divine direction, and divine fulfillment in Jesus’ name.
Stay blessed,
Pastor Joseph
