Happy New Year

by Minister Denise N. Fyffe

2025 is alive and racing before our eyes! I give thanks and honor to Almighty God for bringing us safely into another year. Despite the trials and uncertainties in the world, Jehovah has faithfully kept us under His shadow (Psalm 91:1), and Revealing the Christian Life Ministry continues to grow and thrive. It is my prayer that we will continue to reach every corner of the globe with the message of hope, faith, and God’s Word.

In 2024, we were blessed to have readers from over 200 countries. What an incredible testimony to the power of God’s reach and provision! This is no small feat, and to Him alone belongs all the honor and glory.

We remain committed to forging new partnerships across the world and impacting lives through collaborations with churches, prayer groups, and charitable organizations. Our mission continues: to provide accessible resources that empower Christians and reach non-believers seeking truth. From free videos, books, lessons, and articles to practical resources like Bibles and devotionals, these tools remain available at no cost because of God’s provision and the faithful support of people like you.

Reflecting on God’s Faithfulness

Fifteen years ago, when God gave me the vision for this ministry, I couldn’t fully grasp the purpose behind its name, Revealing the Christian Life. But as the years unfolded, God made the vision clearer. With each passing day, I have learned to cling tightly to His hand, trusting in His wisdom and protection.

God has placed angels in my life—both seen and unseen—guiding me as I continue to serve. My faith remains the flame that drives me forward, and it is my great privilege to serve you through this ministry. I am encouraged knowing that, together, we are fanning the flames of faith in others around the world.

The Year That Was 2024

Even as we move forward into a new year, we can reflect on the challenges of the year past. January alone has brought devastation in many forms. Thousands have been displaced by forest fires in California, losing homes, businesses, and vehicles—watching them go up in smoke, quite literally.

Looking back at 2024, it was a year of trials and controversy. From viral interviews to controversies involving public figures like Sean “P. Diddy” Combs, Kirk Franklin, and Bishop T.D. Jakes, I call it a reminder of “the signs of the times.” While the world watches and speculates, let us remember that God is the ultimate judge. As the Bible says, “Be not deceived; God is not mocked” (Galatians 6:7).

Seek Ye First the Kingdom of God

As Christians, it is vital that we know the God we serve. Church is not about entertainment, catchy music, or charismatic leaders; it is about worshiping the Lord in spirit and truth (John 4:24). In these times, we must ground ourselves in Him and not in man.

I urge you to heed Matthew 6:33: “But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.” Do not live your Christian life based on the actions or behaviors of others. Dig deeply into the Word of God, grow in your knowledge of Jesus Christ, and develop a personal relationship with Him. This is the foundation that will sustain you in difficult times.

Stand Fast in Faith

The coming months will bring even more uncertainty. Rumors will swirl, hidden secrets will come to light, and global challenges—climate change, wars, terrorist attacks, inflation, and economic instability—will continue to unsettle the world. But we are not called to live in fear. Instead, we are called to anchor our faith in God.

Remember, the more you move closer to God, the more challenges you may experience. The Bible says that God as already conquered the world. Just allow the word of God to be in you, especially if you want to have an effective life in God. You cannot overcome the power of darkness, which is in this world, without the word of God.

Psalm 9:20 (KJV) says, “Put them in fear, O Lord: that the nations may know themselves to be but men.” Let this be a reminder to keep your focus on the One who is perfect, even in an imperfect world. Do not let fear or anxiety rule your heart. Trust in the Lord, and He will keep you in perfect peace (Isaiah 26:3).

I pray for you to walk in God’s blessings and protection. Whatever trials or tragedies you may face, hold onto El Shaddai, the Almighty God, who is more than enough for every situation.

Prayer Requests

To those who have sent in prayer requests, know that we see you, and we are praying over your needs. Our ministry team prays for God’s will to be done in your life and for Him to make a divine visitation in your circumstances. As you wait on the Lord, keep the faith, for “The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much” (James 5:16, KJV).

Declarations for the New Year

This year, I am thrilled to announce the release of our newest devotional, Declarations for the New Year. This book is designed to help you declare God’s promises each month, aligning your life with His Word. I encourage you to get a copy, make these declarations, and watch as God’s blessings follow those who call Him Father and Savior.

This series began over a decade ago with Declarations for My Sons and Daughters, and by God’s grace, we are now on our eighth book in the series. These books are available at major online retailers, including Amazon.

Looking Ahead to 2025

As we step into this new year, my prayer for you is that you find your anchor in Christ. If you haven’t yet given your life to Him, I urge you to do so in 2025. As we say in Jamaica, “I wish sum baddy soul woulda ketch a fire” for God! Let this be the year you fully commit your heart and life to Him.

Revealing the Christian Life Ministry will continue to provide resources, articles, prayers, and declarations to encourage and equip you in your walk with God. We are also planning to expand our presence on social media so you can engage with us even more.

Until then, stay encouraged and be blessed.

Final Thoughts

Thank you for supporting our ministry and being part of this journey. As we move forward together, let us remember the words of Galatians 6:9: “And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart.”

Blessings,

Meditate on God’s Word

Many Christians struggle daily to live according to God’s word. But we need daily nourishment. That is why it is important to read your bible daily; even if it is a few verses and meditate on them.

Today, read Romans 8, especially verse 28, and get a copy of the daily devotional Be Encouraged.
