I was taught and
practiced by parents, neighborhood & people living around elsewhere in my
country to make a good resolution every time the New Year dawns. What is so
special in the New Year day and what makes that one day so auspicious and not
the other days? It is true that the
Christians are the majority who used to celebrate the New Year with utmost
importance whilst little other religion does. However it is celebrated widely
across the country irrespective of the religion. But we Christian should always
ask ourselves for a reason to be considered as the most auspicious day albeit
we knew better that, the bible says Today is the day of salvation which
explicitly says that every day in a year is the day of salvation. But we
Christian must not merely consider what is auspicious but rather to look for
expedient and edifying others through our deeds which would eventually glorify
god. It is not wrong to make resolutions
and celebrate only on auspicious day, but most of the times we fail to stand on
the resolution for longer period or probably it would grow weary as we face
trials and tribulations.
So let’s ask god this day to lead
us unto HIS will and obey at all times. No Matter whatever promises you choose
or the pastor get it from the lord for his people to the congregation it is
imperative to know that it always follows with a condition. Therefore you shall not turn aside to the
right hand or to the left. Deu 5:32 and circumcise the foreskin of your heart
and be stiff necked no longer. Deut 10:16
For the gift and calling of the
god is irrevocable. Rom 11-29. His Will, His Promises, His Love, His
compassion… are not changeable. Though we remain unfaithful he is always
faithful. So let’s have the same spirit running continually all through our
life, as the eyes of the Lord is on us from the beginning of the year to the very
end of the year – Deut 11:12.
I came all this way for a reason.
Today is the day of salvation. Trust Jesus to save you, Then be sincere as God
Knows a pretender (kirk Cameron)
Today is the Day of Salvation-
Wishing a Blessed year ahead !
