Word to NEC: You are about to enter a fresh new season in 2026. The blur of the past five seasons is now behind you, and I will lead you into this new season, where you will start seeing people running to you. You have just come through a pivotal transitional year in 2025, preparing you for the next five years. Even the choices you have made over the past six months have positioned you for this new season you will enter in 2026. I am leading you into a season of gathering. Your course will unfold with every passing month; do not doubt, but believe.
Penned: Successfully transitioning into a new season depends on letting go of what is behind us.
Isaiah 43:18 (NIV) 18 “Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past.
C.S. Lewis said, “There are far better things ahead than any we leave behind.”
Isaiah 43:19 (ESV) 19 Behold, I am doing a new thing; now it springs forth, do you not perceive it? I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.
Philippians 3:13 (ESV) 13 Brothers, I do not consider that I have made it my own. But one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead….
Hebrews 11:1–8 (ESV) 1 Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen. 2 For by it the people of old received their commendation. 3 By faith we understand that the universe was created by the word of God…. 4 By faith Abel offered to God a more acceptable sacrifice than Cain,…. 5 By faith Enoch was taken up so that he should not see death,…. 6 And without faith it is impossible to please him,…. 7 By faith Noah, being warned by God concerning events as yet unseen, in reverent fear constructed an ark for the saving of his household. 8 By faith Abraham obeyed when he was called to go out to a place that he was to receive as an inheritance. And he went out, not knowing where he was going.
2 Corinthians 4:18 (NIV) “So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, for what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal”.
Proverbs 3:5–8 (ESV) 5 Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. 6 In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths. 7 Be not wise in your own eyes; fear the LORD, and turn away from evil. 8 It will be healing to your flesh and refreshment to your bones.
Penned Truth: The beginning of a successful new season is all about letting go, moving forward, and trusting God.
Acts 9:3–18 (ESV) 3 Now as he went on his way, he approached Damascus, and suddenly a light from heaven shone around him. 4 And falling to the ground, he heard a voice saying to him, “Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me?” 5 And he said, “Who are you, Lord?” And he said, “I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting. 6 But rise and enter the city, and you will be told what you are to do.”
7 The men who were traveling with him stood speechless, hearing the voice but seeing no one. 8 Saul rose from the ground, and although his eyes were opened, he saw nothing. So they led him by the hand and brought him into Damascus. 9 And for three days he was without sight, and neither ate nor drank.
10 Now there was a disciple at Damascus named Ananias. The Lord said to him in a vision, “Ananias.” And he said, “Here I am, Lord.” 11 And the Lord said to him, “Rise and go to the street called Straight, and at the house of Judas look for a man of Tarsus named Saul, for behold, he is praying, 12 and he has seen in a vision a man named Ananias come in and lay his hands on him so that he might regain his sight.”
13 But Ananias answered, “Lord, I have heard from many about this man, how much evil he has done to your saints at Jerusalem. 14 And here he has authority from the chief priests to bind all who call on your name.”
15 But the Lord said to him, “Go, for he is a chosen instrument of mine to carry my name before the Gentiles and kings and the children of Israel. 16 For I will show him how much he must suffer for the sake of my name.”
17 So Ananias departed and entered the house. And laying his hands on him he said, “Brother Saul, the Lord Jesus who appeared to you on the road by which you came has sent me so that you may regain your sight and be filled with the Holy Spirit.” 18 And immediately something like scales fell from his eyes, and he regained his sight. Then he rose and was baptized;
Final Statement: Unknown Author said, “Do not ask God to guide your footsteps if you’re not willing to move your feet.” Moving forward while trusting God is crucial. Something could be lost if we do not. We could lose new levels of spiritual growth and newfound peace, miss greater clarity about the whole purpose of our personal lives, and someone like Paul could be lost forever if we do not let go and move forward into the new season. Faith and obedience are paramount right now. At this moment, the key is to surrender control and trust God’s promises.
