“Consecrate yourselves, for tomorrow the LORD will do wonders among you.” Joshua 3:5
Consecrate today (Joshua 3:5), expect a crowned year (Psalm 65:11), walk into what is being made new (Revelation 21:5). So I encourage you to ‘Step into Year 2026 with Promised Feet!’ Imagine the footbridge between years: each plank is a promise, each step a surrender, the handrail His faithfulness, the path lit by His Word. Behind you, the river of “what was”; before you, a horizon of “what God will do.” Promised feet don’t rush; they are steady, clean, and directed.
What are Promised Feet?
- Consecrated feet: set apart to walk where He leads, not where fear pushes.
- Crowned-path feet: expecting goodness to meet them along the way.
- New-thing feet: ready to move when God says, “Behold, I make all things new.”
How to step into the New Year:
1) Consecrate today (Joshua 3:5)
- Lay down old grime: confess, forgive, release.
- Offer God the calendar, the keys, the plans.
- Simple prayer: “Lord, make me wholly Yours this year.”
2) Expect a crowned year (Psalm 65:11 says, “You crown the year with your bounty, and your carts overflow with abundance.”)
- Name the fields where you need His “fatness”: family, work, health, ministry.
- Keep an answered-prayer journal — track the crown on each month.
- Practice daily gratitude to spot the “wagon tracks” of His abundance.
3) Walk into what is being made new (Revelation 21:5)
- Ask, “What new thing are You forming in me?” Then take the first small step.
- Travel light: discard habits and narratives that can’t cross the bridge.
- Move at God’s pace — obedience now is better than speed later.
Declarations for 2026:
- I am set apart for God’s purposes; the Lord orders my steps.
- This year is crowned with His goodness; His paths drip abundance in my life.
- I welcome the new; I release the old; I walk by faith, not by sight.
- Courage rises in me because I have prayed; fear does not write my story.
Declaration prayer:
“Holy God, I consecrate my heart, my time, my gifts, and my pathway to You. Crown this year with Your goodness; let Your presence be the abundance on every road I travel. Make new what has grown weary, redeem what has been lost, and lead me step by step across this bridge into Your prepared future. In Jesus’ name, amen.”
A blessing as you step:
May your feet be sure, your heart be clean, your eyes be bright with hope. May every plank of this year’s bridge bear the weight of God’s promises beneath you. May courage meet you at every threshold, and may the One who calls you faithful finish what He starts. Step into Year 2026 with Promised Feet. In Jesus name. Amen. Remember, Revelation 21:5 says, “He who was seated on the throne said, ‘I am making everything new!” Then he said, “Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true.” Amen.
