You can pass through his open gates with the password of praise. Come right into his presence with thanksgiving. Come bring your thank offering to him and affectionately bless his beautiful name! Psalms 100:4 TPT
Almost everything now has a password, be it phone or other gadgets, and failure to apply your password logs you out of the system. I have been logged out with warnings after many attempts of not remembering my password. The throne of God also has a password, and the password is Thanksgiving. You may lose your admission if you fail to use your password.
Agreeable, 2020 will be popular remember for global discomfort and devastations with no thanks to the Covid-19 pandemic. However tough as it might be. If you are still breathing and your heart is still beating, you have every reason to give thanks to God.
The psalmist made a vow to praise God as long as he live- " While I live I will praise the Lord ; I will sing praises to my God while I have my being." Psalms 146:2 NKJV
No matter what you have lost - health, family, money, materials, relationships, it does not stop you from breathing. You are still here, alive!
From this point, you have the chance and the possibility to start all over. Thelma Wells wrote, " As God's children, our lives unfold daily like pages in a book. Each circumstance is a different chapter. Each page is a new opportunity to live out God's plan for us." So, beloved, having the opportunity to enter this new year is adding a new chapter to your life. You have the chance to live out God's plan for you.
According to Job, there is that hope of a comeback
“For there is hope for a tree, If it is cut down, that it will sprout again, And that its tender shoots will not cease. Though its root may grow old in the earth, And its stump may die in the ground, Yet at the scent of water it will bud And bring forth branches like a plant. Job 14:7-9 NKJV
That is possible because there is no end to the greatness and the goodness of God. There is no end to His grace. With you and for you, there is no limit to what God can do.
It is the specialty of God to bring glory out of a man's heartbreaking story.
To enter into His plan for you in this new year- New Life (Isaiah 60:1). Something has to transpire that may sound opposite to the difficult occurrence in the recent or remote past- YOU HAVE TO BE THANKFUL.
it may be naturally hard to do, but with Faith and trust in God, it is possible (Pro.3:5-6)
Faith in God means to have complete trust in the one who is ever faithful(Lamentations 3:22)
