As we are reflecting on these last Fridays of the year, let’s also take stock of what we need to leave behind in 2024.

“let us strip off every weight that slows us down, especially the sin that so easily trips us up. And let us run with endurance the race God has set before us.”

Hebrews 12:1 NLT

What are some things that we need to leave behind in 2024? What are those things that has tripped us up and caused us to be stagnant in our faith? What have we allowed to deter us?

We need a clean state going into 2025. Let’s not let the cycles that we went through this year be the same ones that we go through next year. Whether that be mindsets, habits, or people that we keep holding on to.

It’s time to move intentionally like we never have before to experience all that God has for us. Let’s run our race with freedom and victory, knowing that we aren’t allowing the old things to hinder us any longer.

So, let’s catalog and check those things that need to come off of us now, so that way they don’t hold up our blessings in 2025.

As we go about the rest of this week and into Christmas week, think about the things we need to give up for us to see the Lord move more deeply in our lives and for us to experience Him in new ways?

Meditate on these questions: What do we need to leave in 2024? What has hindered us in this past year? What are some habits we need to start or stop, to walk in purpose and freedom in 2025?

Y’all have a great week and remember to uplift, inspire, enlighten, and, more importantly, encourage someone. If you want to reach out or have any prayer requests, you can submit them here.
