Successfully Reach the End of 2023 Through Unity with the Holy Trinity

Haggai 1:14

So the Lord stirred up the spirit of Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and the spirit of Joshua son of Jozadak, the high priest, and the spirit of the whole remnant of the people. They came and began to work on the house of the Lord Almighty, their God

The Direction of Your Life Is to Center on the Holy Trinity

When throwing or kicking a ball, the angle and direction in which the ball is sent are the most critical elements that determine success or failure. The same is true for God’s history—the direction is key. Even though God sent Moses to the Israelites in the Old Testament, those who didn’t know God’s Will failed to enter Canaan—the ideal world of that time period. Consequently, they lived in the barren Desert of Zin instead because they neither believed in nor followed Moses who was setting God’s direction for that time period.

Therefore, to spiritually succeed this entire year, you must center on the Holy Trinity and find the correct direction for your life or for your work and take action. If you center on yourself, you will surely fail. The Trinity and Jesus are the head. We are the body. Since the head and body must always work in unison, we must always live as one with the Trinity and Jesus. The Trinity and Jesus are blessing us to succeed, so take action thinking that everything will turn out well. If you keep working and running diligently following the Trinity and Jesus, who are the head, you will be well-situated to grab a given opportunity when it comes your way. Thus, you will be able to achieve victory and fulfill all your hopes and wishes.

The Importance of Being Inspired

To connect with God, we should speak to Him first, rather than expecting the omniscient and omnipotent God to speak to us first. When we reach out to God first, we will recognize and understand when God speaks to us since we are mindful of God in our thoughts.

Therefore, pray to God until your heart, thoughts, and mind are inspired to the extreme. The heart is the core. When you think about God while your heart and thoughts are inspired, you will become one with Him and thus be able to think deeply and gain perfect realizations. Not only that, but when you connect with God at this level, you will take action easily because even your body will be motivated. 

Your heart also gets inspired when you realize that there’s something you absolutely must do. At these times, you need to take action the very moment you are inspired. If you fail to act when you’re feeling inspired, you won’t be able to do it later.

When your heart and thoughts are inspired, the difference is like Heaven and Earth compared to when you are not inspired. The inspiration of the Holy Spirit will be different, your desire to take action will be different, and the things you realize will be different.

Therefore, you should take action while being inspired. Only then will you do your work easily even if it is hard. If you do nothing, your body, heart, and thoughts will not be inspired. You can become more inspired when you take action.

Love God to the Extreme, Abide by His Word, and Live In His Domain

It says in the Bible that God stirred up people’s hearts, so they came and began to work on the house of God (Haggai 1:14). Now, too, God is inspiring us and helping us to work on our bodies, hearts, souls, and spirits to make them into houses of God.

Without God’s inspiration, we cannot take action because we lack strength. The body works diligently when it is inspired and excited. However, when it is pushed beyond its limit, it gets tired and loses its strength because its physical capabilities cannot keep up with its mentality and thoughts. Therefore, do not go beyond your limit. When you grind knives, axes, or various tools on a whetstone to sharpen them, they will actually become dull if you grind them beyond the limit. The same is true for everything else you do. Do not cross the line; do not pass the limit when you take action. That will cause harm instead.

The greatest wisdom you can have towards God is to love Him to the extreme, abide by His Word, and live in His domain. May you reach the end of 2023, having succeeded in body and spirit through unity with God and Jesus.
