At our Holy Communion Service themed Communion for God’s Sufficiency, Pastor Femi Paul delivered a timely and liberating word titled Do Not Dwell on the Past. We were reminded that God’s redemptive plan is not to keep His people trapped in yesterday’s losses, but to move them forward into divine restoration. Anchored on Isaiah 43, the message was clear that God is doing a new thing and opening premium doors of opportunity that will more than compensate for whatever was lost, damaged, broken, or destroyed. Communion became a moment of reassurance that God’s sufficiency covers our past, present, and future.
The teaching emphasised that while the past may contain lost, missed, wasted, or squandered opportunities, it must never be used as a measure for what God is arranging in 2026. Premium opportunities are game changer moments designed to rewrite stories and shift outcomes in the most important areas of our lives. The instruction was simple but powerful: learn from the past, release it, and move forward in faith. This year, God is calling His people to stop looking back and to step boldly into the greater doors He has prepared.
Confession: Father, I release my past into Your hands. I receive premium opportunities in 2026 that restore, renew, and reposition my life. I move forward in faith, confident that You are doing a new thing, in Jesus name. Amen.
