Happy New Year to everyone reading this. I officially want to welcome each and everyone of you to the year 2022.

It is a year of “Triumph and exploits for Children of God”.

Message to God’s people for the year 2022

2022 will be a difficult year, full of challenges but only God’s children who know their God, will triumph by knowledge.

—

Daniel 11:32
AMP: And such as violate the covenant he shall pervert and seduce with flatteries, but the people who know their God shall prove themselves strong and shall stand firm and do exploits [for God].

Only those who know their God, who have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ will be able to stand in this year 2022.

It will be a year of distinction between those who are truly God’s children and those who are just pretending to have a close relationship with Jesus Christ.

But those who know their God, trust in Him with their whole hearts, will stand firm and resist the devil in every area of their lives and families.

Four Major Things We Need In This Year 2022.

1) For the unbeliever, you will need to receive Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and savior to become His child.

John 1:12
AMP: But to as many as did receive and welcome Him, He gave the authority (power, privilege, right) to become the children of God, that is, to those who believe in (adhere to, trust in, and rely on) His name–[Isa. 56:5.]

Once you become a child of God, you become a victor. By divine right, you rise above challenges and circumstances.

1 John 5:4
NKJV: For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith.
AMP: For whatever is born of God is victorious over the world; and this is the victory that conquers the world, even our faith.

1 John 4:4
NKJV: You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.

Once you are born again or becomes a child of God, victory and blessings becomes your birthright. This is because what belongs to your father now belongs to you by birth.

Note That: Becoming a child of God is not by reciting a prayer but its by Believing in the incarnate Christ, His Death, Burial and Resurrection as a substitute for us and confessing these truth with your mouth . John 3:16, Romans 10:9-10.

2) To succeed in 2022, we must go for knowledge.

The knowledge of God’s will for one’s life , will automatically prepare a pathway for your success and give you victory over sicknesses, demonic attacks, witchcraft powers, poverty ,laziness, prayerlessness etc

This is true as God Himself had declared that His lovely children are perishing, sick, destroyed by witchcraft powers etc all because they lack knowledge of what He has freely given to them in Christ Jesus.

Hosea 4:6
NKJV: My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.
Because you have rejected knowledge,
I also will reject you from being priest for Me;
Because you have forgotten the law of your God,
I also will forget your children.

LSG (French Translation) : Mon peuple est détruit, parce qu’il lui manque la connaissance. Puisque tu as rejeté la connaissance, Je te rejetterai, et tu seras dépouillé de mon sacerdoce; Puisque tu as oublié la loi de ton Dieu, J’oublierai aussi tes enfants.

But knowledge on the things (power, health, riches, victory etc) God has given us will make us victorious in Christ Jesus. knowledge shall be what will deliver you.

Isaiah 33:6
NKJV: Wisdom and knowledge will be the stability of your times,
And the strength of salvation;
The fear of the Lord is His treasure.

LSG (French Translation) : Tes jours seront en sûreté; La sagesse et l’intelligence sont une source de salut; La crainte de l’Eternel, C’est là le trésor de Sion.

Proverbs 11:9
NKJV: The hypocrite with his mouth destroys his neighbor,
But through knowledge the righteous will be delivered.

LSG (French Translation) : Par sa bouche l’impie perd son prochain, Mais les justes sont délivrés par la science.

Through knowledge, the child of God shall be healed, delivered, prosper etc That’s why God has given to us His Holy Spirit to reveal to us what God has freely given to us His children ( the believer or born again child of God).

1 Corinthians 2:12

AMP: Now we have not received the spirit [that belongs to] the world, but the [Holy] Spirit Who is from God, [given to us] that we might realize and comprehend and appreciate the gifts [of divine favor and blessing so freely and lavishly] bestowed on us by God.

LSG (French Translation) : Or nous, nous n’avons pas reçu l’esprit du monde, mais l’Esprit qui vient de Dieu, afin que nous connaissions les choses que Dieu nous a données par sa grâce.

3) Believe God’s word/God’s will for your life.

God’s word is God’s will for our lives. God’s will is His intentions or thoughts concerning our lives, families, the circumstances we are going through, our health, financial progress , marriage etc. These are God’s thoughts towards us. God’s will for our lives include;

Jeremiah 29:11
NKJV: For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.

LSG (French Translation) : Car je connais les projets que j’ai formés sur vous, dit l’Eternel, projets de paix et non de malheur, afin de vous donner un avenir et de l’espérance.

Isaiah 7:7
NKJV: thus says the Lord God:
“It shall not stand,
Nor shall it come to pass.

LSG (French Translation): Ainsi parle le Seigneur, l’Eternel: Cela n’arrivera pas, cela n’aura pas lieu.

Isaiah 54:17
AMP: But no weapon that is formed against you shall prosper, and every tongue that shall rise against you in judgment you shall show to be in the wrong. This [peace, righteousness, security, triumph over opposition] is the heritage of the servants of the Lord [those in whom the ideal Servant of the Lord is reproduced]; this is the righteousness or the vindication which they obtain from Me [this is that which I impart to them as their justification], says the Lord.

LSG (French Translation) : Toute arme forgée contre toi sera sans effet; Et toute langue qui s’élèvera en justice contre toi, Tu la condamneras. Tel est l’héritage des serviteurs de l’Eternel, Tel est le salut qui leur viendra de moi, Dit l’Eternel.

3 John 1:2
NKJV: Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospers.

LSG (French Translation) : Bien-aimé, je souhaite que tu prospères à tous égards et sois en bonne santé, comme prospère l’état de ton âme.

God’s intentions or thoughts or will for our lives is to prosper us, give us good health, good marriages, salvation and many more we can ever imagine. The reason you are not yet seeing these things manifesting in your life is not because God has not said it, but it’s because you have not taken your authority as a child of God to put and end to the challenges or circumstances you are facing.

Note that! God and His Word are one.

You cannot separate God from His Word. His Word is yes and Amen for your life and the situation you are going through. whatsoever will change God’s Word, must change God Himself and God cannot be change or be changed. He said:

Malachi 3:6
NKJV: “For I am the Lord, I do not change;
Therefore you are not consumed, O sons of Jacob.

LSG (French Translation) : Car je suis l’Eternel, je ne change pas; Et vous, enfants de Jacob, vous n’avez pas été consumés.

Question: What is that situation in your life that wants to change God's Word?

Question: Who can say a thing and it comes to pass when the Lord has not said it?

4) Lastly, we must engage God’s will for our lives with prayer.

Knowing alone what God has freely given to us does not guarantee our victory. We must enforce what we know God has freely given to us through prayers to enable us see their manifestations here on earth.
NB: It will take prayers to transfer these blessings from the realm of the Spirit to this our physical earth realm. Ephesians 1:3,13-14.

NB: One should note here that prayer includes Faith in talking to God and listening to Him.
Hebrews 11:6, 1Thessalonians 5:16-18
Isaiah 41:21
