The Two Friends You Must Let Go of in 2026

The Two Friends You Must Let Go of in 2026

There are two companions many of us carry quietly, often without realizing the damage they cause. They may feel familiar and even justified at times, but they are not your friends.
Their names are murmuring and grumbling.

They will make you unhappy & never help you grow!

They will neither build you nor others.

They will always make you the victim.

They will destroy your life and let you down.

The more you hangout with them, the more likely they will lead you into depression.

In 2026, if you want to soar in Christ, these two have to go.

Let Go

A Real-Life Picture
I had a colleague, she would always murmur and grumble about work. She would do it so often and whenever her boss asked her why she was late, she would keep silent for a few seconds and after the boss steps away she would grumble.

Over time, her attitude frustrated everyone around her. Nothing changed, not because solutions weren’t possible, but because murmuring never fixes anything. It only poisons the atmosphere.

That’s when I realized this is exactly what God despised when Israelites grumbled in the wilderness.

God Hears Your Grumblings
The Israelites saw with their eyes where God put plagues on Egypt, opened up the red sea for them and fought for them and delivered them from years of slavery and oppression.

The Word of God says , “Israel saw the great power that the Lord used against the Egyptians, so the people feared the Lord, and they believed in the Lord and in His servant Moses” (Exodus 14:31).

Yet, only days later, they began to complain. Instead of asking God, they grumbled against Moses and Aaron.

What’s amazing is this: although they complained about the men of God, God said,

“He has heard your grumbling against the Lord.” (Exodus 16:7–8)

Another verse confirms it:
“How long shall this wicked congregation grumble against me? I have heard the grumblings of the people of Israel.” (Numbers 14:27, ESV)

Murmuring may feel harmless, but God hears it clearly.

2026: A Year to Change
If murmuring and grumbling have quietly become part of your life, let 2026 be the year you release them.

God doesn’t ask us to pretend life is perfect. He invites us to bring our concerns to Him instead of rehearsing complaints that keep us stuck.

The Word of God says in Philippians 2:14-16 “Do all things without grumbling or disputing, that you may be blameless and innocent, children of God without blemish in the midst of a crooked and twisted generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world, holding fast to the word of life…”

Reflect on this: Are there things in my life I grumble or complain about instead of praying to God about it?

“You Are My Beloved” – Daddy God

“You Are My Beloved” – Daddy God

Do you know that God loves you?

I’m sure you do. But, do you also know that you are a beloved of Jesus?

There is a difference between love and beloved. When you call somebody a beloved that means the person is dearly loved.

When the Father wanted to address Jesus, He used this word “beloved”.

“and behold, a voice from the heavens said, “This is My beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased.” (Matthew 3:17)

Beloved

“Then a voice came from heaven, “You are My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.” (Mark 1:11)

What God is saying is that this is somebody whom I dearly love. This is somebody who is perfected in My love. This is somebody with whom there is no match to this kind of love.

Can you imagine the weight of this word? It cannot be used for everybody and anybody.

When parents use certain names for their children, they call it for a reason. That name cannot be given to everybody. When God wanted to give a name to Jesus, He addressed Him as, “My beloved”. Isn’t that amazing?

Song of Solomon 6:3 says, “I am my beloved’s, And my beloved is mine.”

You and I are in Jesus. Not everyone who is born in a christian family is in Him, but those who are born again. If you are born again, you are in Jesus, and you become the beloved of Jesus and the beloved of God. That means God not only looks at Jesus as His beloved, but He looks at you as His beloved.

If you still don’t believe, look at what John 3:16 says – “For God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life.”

In other words, God so loved you, that He gave away His beloved. This is what God is telling you – If Jesus is My beloved, if I thundered from the skies and called Him My beloved, then listen my dear daughter, I value you so much that I gave My beloved away for you.

That makes you the beloved of beloved!

So never believe the lies of the enemy. When the enemy comes to you and tells you that you are not worthy enough, you are not good enough, you have done something in your life and God is upset with you, look at that devil and say “shut up”!

Because you are a beloved of Jesus and that will never change!

This One Thing Will Make You Unshakeable in 2026..

This One Thing Will Make You Unshakeable in 2026..

Do you remember a point in time when the Israelites were grumbling and complaining against God in the wilderness on their way to the Promised Land? (Numbers 21:4-9)

And because of their ungratefulness and rebellion, God sent poisonous serpents among the people. These snakes bit many, and as a result, many Israelites died.

voice of God

When the people realised their mistake they confessed their sin and Moses prayed for them and God then gave Moses a strange instruction. He asked Moses to make a fiery serpent and put it on the pole and everyone who is bitten, when he looks at it, shall live.
Moses obeyed, Israelites listened, and that worked!
But that same bronze serpent, which God once used as a tool for healing, later became an object of idol worship by the Israelites as we read in 2 Kings 18:4

What’s the lesson here?
The Israelites’ gaze was never on God, that’s why they always needed a miracle or something tangible to lead and sustain them.

Child of God, what has to lead you in 2026 is the voice (Word) of God.
Your foundation, that will withstand every storm, wind and waves has to be the Word that God speaks to you, and not what is seen or felt because your money in the bank, your educational qualification, your job etc., are all temporary.
Guard your hearts from fixing your gaze on miracles, experiences or even leaders, above the One who gave them.
This way when your gaze is fixed on Jesus (His Word), no matter what the storm is around you, you will be unshakeable this year.

Your Success in 2026 Depends On This..

Your Success in 2026 Depends On This..

India’s national sport has everyone on the edge of their seats, eyes fixed on the screen, barely blinking as every ball is hit by the man or woman on the field. This cricket craze is seen around the globe, especially among the Indians.
But wait; what about your passion for His voice for your life? The Holy Spirit whispered this to me as I eagerly watched the match.
Happy New year

Rejoicing in these temporary victories is not the problem. But how excited are we about hearing God? When will we stop being just a spectator, and instead become a real threat to the kingdom of darkness?
Romans 8:19 says “For the creation waits with eager longing for the revealing of the sons of God.”
Author Kim once shared how your success does not depend on how long you live or how far you go in life, but on how much you can hear God.
One of the most common words displayed on screens during these matches is “partnership.” Once a partnership is set in a match, the players know they are on their way to winning.
In the Kingdom, a true partnership for a daughter of God is found in inclining her ears to the voice of the Holy Spirit. That is the real deal in the spirit realm and this is what makes you a danger to the enemy.
This world has taught us that success looks like having a hefty sum of money in the bank, using an iPhone, owning a house, or driving a luxurious car. But from God’s perspective, success is when you and I hear His voice.
The key to your success is hidden in the Spirit. Go find it, girl!

Prophecies Not Coming to Pass? This Could Be the Reason

Prophecies Not Coming to Pass? This Could Be the Reason

Every year we receive a prophetic Word for that year that leaves us in awe. But in our hearts, many of us wonder, “Lord, how is this going to be?”
You must have received a Word for you in the previous year. But, you saw your life very different from that Word. You must have even said, “Lord, this is what you promised in the last season, and I didn’t see it happen.”
So the next year when a prophetic Word comes to you, you are wondering, “God how is this going to happen?”
Promises

Taste (And Not Test) the Word of God
Let me tell you — the problem is not from the Lord’s side. It is never from the Lord’s side because God’s Word never fails.
The real problem is when you receive a prophetic Word, you are analysing it. You are trying to test the Word of God to see whether it’s going to work.
Many of us are saying, “Let’s see how this year is going to unfold because our man or woman of God is saying that this is the prophetic Word for this year.”
But we are not supposed to test the Word; we are supposed to taste the Word of God. (Psalms 34:8)

Your Answered Prayer Glorifies God.
God in His love and compassion, completely overlooks your past, and uses men and women of God to come to you to start something fresh, and He equips you with a prophetic Word for that year.
When God says this is how it is going to be, it is a done deal from the Lord’s side. Now it is up to us.
We don’t sit and test that Word, but we take that Word, we believe God and we start running with that Word. And as we do that, we will see the manifestation of that Word.
Jesus said in John 14:13, “And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.” Isn’t that so beautiful? That means God is saying that when your prayers are answered, He is glorified in that.
God is not fighting your desires. In fact, when you receive an answer, God’s chest swells with pride. He’s so happy. He celebrates it. So that is how important our prayers are to Jesus, and He takes it seriously.
As we are nearing 2026, when we receive a prophetic Word for the new year, let us know that when He speaks it is done. And all we need to do is believe and run with that Word.
Shalom.

How Do I Stop Overthinking and Racing Thoughts?

How Do I Stop Overthinking and Racing Thoughts?

“Then the Lord saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.” (Genesis 6:5)

 The above verse talks about a time where God was about to destroy the whole world. It says how every intent of the thoughts of their hearts were “only evil continually”. 

 It was not random thoughts causing a flutter, but thoughts that were “continually” evil. 

 If you are continually in a state of anxiety, negativity and lack of confidence, then that’s a problem. Because, brick by brick the enemy is making a stronghold in your life.

 Now you are unable to move forward because you are caught up in this stronghold, and you don’t know the way out. 

 Finding yourself in this situation? Try Thought Seeding

Thoughts

Ever heard of cloud seeding? It’s a technique where certain substances are dispersed into clouds to encourage rainfall.

 Thought seeding is similar to that. If you can hit your mind with the Word of God, it will cause rain from Heaven to come in favor of you and destroy every strong wall that is around you. 

 When David wanted to build a temple for the Lord, that thought became a determination in his heart. And God acknowledged it. (1 Kings 8:17-18 AMP)

 In the end, although it was Solomon who built the temple, Jesus was still called the seed of David because David’s heart and his thoughts were very different. 

 So I want to encourage you: you are made in the image and likeness of God. You are much loved. You carry greatness within you. There is so much that God wants to do through your life but He cannot do it if you keep thinking small about yourself. 

 There has to be a point where you say, “I hear God saying this and I know that He will do exactly what He said.” No matter how impossible a situation may look, change your thinking because when you change your thinking, you make place for God’s presence to usher in.

 Philippians 4:8 encourages you to keep your thoughts continually fixed on all that is authentic and real. That’s the Word of God. Honorable and admirable, beautiful and respectful, pure and holy, merciful and kind. The Bible encourages us not just to think about these things, but to keep your thoughts continually fixed on such things.

 Because the Bible says, As a man thinks in his heart, so is he (Proverbs 23:7). You cannot go beyond your thinking. 

 Remember, when you think what is right, you attract supernatural help in your life. 

 Shalom.
