Primate Ayodele Advice on How To Enter The New Year

Image
 As a season closes and another approaches, wisdom calls for stillness, not haste. Many rush toward a new year armed with goals and expectations, yet overlook a vital truth: no vision thrives in a weary vessel.  Strategic direction, prophetic clarity, and sound judgment are all weakened when the mind and body are burdened by exhaustion.

God often restores strength not only through words spoken in prayer, but through moments of silence, sleep, and withdrawal. Rest is not laziness. It is alignment. It is obedience to both spiritual law and natural order. As you prepare for the coming season, take these steps seriously: • Step back from avoidable pressure and noise. • Pray deliberately, then rest intentionallyallow God to renew you fully. • Release the anxieties of closing days; there is grace for those who pause in faith. • Refuse to carry the fatig...

Today, on instinct as a professional wordsmith and humanitarian, I want to address the several ...
