Crossing over into a new year (Series) 2 ~ Pastor Ituah Ighodalo



And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. Luke 2: 10 KJV



What will make the year 2020 happy? What are the things that we need to do?

If we don’t do these things, the year will just be like any other year, because what the Bible says in Genesis 28:22 is that God promises that while the earth remaineth, seed time and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night do not cease. So God has guaranteed that things will continue as they continued every year. But what will make this year different is not what God does, but what you will do to make sure that this year truly goes your way. No earthly year contains any magic or portends to be different from the other years. God will make all things work according to the time of life. The sun will still shine, the rain will fall, there will be winter, summer, spring, the moon will come out, the flowers will bloom, people will be born, and people will die, there will be accidents and there will be crashes, armed robbers won’t disappear, thieves will still operate, some will make money, some will lose money, some will marry, some will divorce, sickness will not disappear neither will success fail. There might be slight differences here and there, but the earth will continue in its cause. But what will make the year happy, progressive and successful are the things that you will do. What are the things that we must contract to do as we turn into a new year?



  1. You must know your God and serve him well. This year 2020 is not a year to joke with God and to joke with the things of God. David said to Solomon in 1 Chronicles 28:9, he says Solomon my son, know the God of your father, serve him with a perfect heart and a willing mind. If you seek God, he will be found of you.  This is the year that you must know your God and serve him well. Know your God this year. This year 2020, know your God and serve him well. That’s why He said to Jerom, if God heals you, what are you going to do for him. Don’t let it be a point of pain, a point where you are being harassed before you start to know your God and serve him well
  2. Fear him, love him, and obey his commandments. Psalm 128 says “blessed is everyone that feareth the Lord, that worketh in his ways. You will eat the labour of your hands, happy you will be and it shall be well with you.” Fear God, love him, obey his commandments. We know that all things work together for good for them that love God, for them that are called according to his purpose. If you love God, everything in 2020 will work together for your good.  Obey God.  Deuteronomy 28:1-2 - ​And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to observe and to do all his commandments which I command thee this day, that the Lord thy God will set thee on high above all nations of the earth:   And all these blessings shall come on thee, and overtake thee, if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God.
