As we stand on the threshold of 2025, I want you to pause and truly reflect. This year is not just another set of months it is 12 months of divine blessings, specifically given to you. Each second, each minute, each day, and each week is an opportunity. I need you to stop wasting time. Recognize that God has placed something special in you a vision, an idea, a seed of greatness, a creative gift, or a talent. You are not here by chance. You have come into this moment for such a time as this.
Too many of us live and die with untapped potential blessings locked inside us because we allow fear to rule our lives. Can you imagine standing before God at the end of your life and realizing that all the talents and opportunities He gave you were left unused? Your gifts are not just for you; they are meant to bless others. Your creativity, talents, and ideas can change the course of someone’s life.
Let 2025 be the year you step into your purpose. No longer will we allow fear to live rent-free in our minds. Fear has depreciated the value of your mental “property” for far too long. This year, fear will no longer rearrange your thoughts, dreams, or vision. Instead, we will boldly reclaim our space. We will believe what God says about us: we are capable, equipped, and created for a purpose.
Remember the saying, "A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step." Take that first step. Move toward your dreams. Start the business, register that idea, share that gift. Believe in the impossible and see it become possible.
I want to speak from my heart. For years, I was afraid of public speaking. I worried about my accent and whether I was pronouncing words correctly. I doubted how people heard me. But one day, I spoke to myself: Etta, God has placed so much inside you that He wants you to share with others. Trust Him and see what He will do. And He did. God does not look for the “perfect.” He uses the unexpected, the overlooked, and the broken to be catalysts for greatness. If you are waiting to be flawless before stepping out, let me remind you: God already has a purpose for you just as you are.
I finally stopped hiding behind fear. For years, I said I would write a book, but negativity, doubt, and the opinions of others kept me stagnant. I stopped believing in myself. But when I asked God to reveal my purpose, I realized His word had already spoken over my life. I stepped out in faith no longer afraid of tomorrow, no longer afraid of rejection. What God blesses, no one can stop.
In this year, I believe in you. It’s time for you to believe in yourself. You are someone’s hope. You are someone’s answer. You are someone’s breakthrough. You are here to change lives, to be the light, to walk in the calling God has placed on your heart.
Let 2025 be the year you rise. Take that step. Write the book. Start the business. Share your story. Stop living in fear. Fear will no longer rob you of your blessings.
I believe in me, and I believe in you. Together, let’s take the steps of our life journey one step at a time. This is your year. A year of purpose, growth, and unshakable faith.
“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”
– Jeremiah 29:11
Step boldly into 2025. The world is waiting for what you have to give.
