casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you —1 Peter 5:7 (NKJV)

As the year remains fresh, many are wondering how they will achieve all their goals for the months ahead. It is natural to feel this way when your dreams and aspirations look remarkably large. While those feelings are understandable, I have good news for you today. No matter how big your vision may be, it can be achieved, but you cannot do it alone. You need divine assistance to see your plans come to pass.

This is where partnership with the Father becomes essential for your success. Sadly, many people struggle because they try to navigate life on their own strength. The Bible reminds us that by strength shall no man prevail —1 Samuel 2:9 (KJV). If you truly want to achieve great feats this year, you must realize you cannot do it without the Master. As the Scripture says, Unless the Lord builds the house, they labor in vain who build it; unless the Lord guards the city, the watchman stays awake in vain —Psalms 127:1 (NKJV).

You must make a firm decision to work with the Savior regarding every dream in your heart. The best way to begin this partnership is to cast your care upon Him, for He cares for you —1 Peter 5:7 (NKJV). When you release these burdens, make sure to leave them there rather than taking them back through worry. Trust the Master enough to stop asking questions rooted in unbelief. If you can stay in this place of trust, the grace needed to achieve your heart’s intentions will be granted to you. Praise God!

Confession for the Day

Today, I have learned something new. I refuse to run through this year without God. I choose to cast my care upon the Lord, and as I do this, all the grace needed to achieve great results this year is granted to me in the name of Jesus. Amen!
