Power for Living: New Year Special Edition, 2025 The New Year: Opportunity for a New Beginning Study Text: Philippians 3:13 - 14 Introduction: Anytime a new year is beginning, it is an opportunity to prepare for a new beginning in all areas of your life. The New Year is not a repetition of the concluding year, but a beginning of a fresh year. Therefore, you should not hope to begin again, but to have a new beginning.

There are commitments expected of you by the Word of God that will guarantee that you will have a glorious and successful New Year. 1.  Be Committed to Put your Failure and Setback behind  This advice from God’s Word has stood the test of time. We don't have to live our lives imprisoned by our pas...

Power for Living: Volume 10 Number 1  Dealing with the Dragons in Your Life: Focus Text: Revelation 12:7-12   And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven. And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night.

Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto ...

Could it be we don’t really understand the meaning of Obedience or we forget how important it is? Or we need help on how to obey. 1.  Obedience: What it is   -    In simple terms it means hearing the word of God and acting on it.  -  It implies aligning our will to God’s will; doing what God has asked us to do.  -  It is when we completely surrender to His authority and base our decisions and our actions on His Word. 2.  Obedience: Why is it Important   -  Obedience is so important for every Christian, in fact without it we fall short of the glory of God. 1.  It is an act of worship as it demonstrates our lo...
