God’s promises come at the appointed time, trust His timing. Habakkuk 2:2-3 "Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it. For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry."

GIRLFRIEND, it is time. I feel the Lord speaking strongly: “Prepare yourself.” It is time to transition from the battles you have been fighting and the wars you have been raging. The season of struggle is shifting, what you’ve endured has been purposeful, preparing you for the next level. You have planted. You have watered. You have nurtured. You have stayed faithful when the results seemed slow or the path unclear. God sees every tear, every sacrifice, every effort. Now, the promises you’ve been believing for are ready to MANIFEST. The harvest is coming, and the fruit of your labor is about to bring glory to His name and purpose to your life.
At the beginning of this year (2025) ...I believe it was in February. Me and some of my very best friends made vision boards as a birthday celebration for myself and my bestie, Roumona. We got together with all the pretty crafty supplies, magazines and photos. Each blank white board became a canvas for our faith and dreams. On them, we placed everything we have been believing God for, along with the desires of our hearts. Every word, image, and picture was carefully chosen to reflect what we are trusting God to do in our lives.
We decorated and colored in the spaces with vibrant colors, images, and designs that were beautiful and meaningful. This wasn’t just an art project, it was an act of faith, a way to visually declare: “God, I trust You with my dreams, my prayers, and my future. I am ready for Your promises to manifest.” As I reflect on this moment, by creating those vision boards, we were tangibly positioning our hearts for manifestation, aligning our minds, spirits, and creativity with God’s plan. As Proverbs 16:3 reminds us: “Commit thy works unto the LORD, and thy thoughts shall be established.” Each board is more than decoration, it is a spiritual declaration of hope, faith, and expectation for the year ahead.
This is not by chance...2026 is the year for divine transition, breakthrough, and manifestation. The battles of yesterday are preparing the ground for the victories of tomorrow. Stand ready, stand bold, and stand expectant. God is about to show up in ways you have been longing for; this is your season to manifest His promises. Keep in mind, this is going to look different which means you have to shift, sister. You have to PREPARE yourself. This is what that can look like.
Just as Esther was placed “for such a time as this” (Esther 4:14), you are strategically positioned to receive your breakthrough. Being positioned spiritually isn’t passive, it requires attentiveness, patience, and obedience. For me, this means learning to stop being reactive and instead allow the Lord to take the lead in every situation. It means not rushing to respond out of fear or impulse, but waiting on God’s guidance, trusting that He will align every step to bring His promises to fruition. When we let God actively lead us, rather than trying to force outcomes, He positions us perfectly for the manifestation of His purpose. The breakthroughs, the opportunities, and the answers we’ve been waiting for come most fully when we walk in step with His Spirit, ready to move at His timing, not ours.
What have you been believing God for? What promises have you been holding onto in prayer? What dreams, visions, or callings have you been sowing and battling for? Whatever it is, God is calling you to start preparing for it now. Preparation is key. Manifestation doesn’t happen by chance, it requires alignment with God, faith-filled action, and spiritual readiness. Part of that preparation is receiving fresh oil for this season. In Scripture, oil represents the anointing of the Holy Spirit, God’s empowerment for purpose, breakthrough, and divine assignment. But fresh oil is not the same oil you used last year; it is new, specific, and tailored for the season you are entering.
2026 is OUR year for breakthrough, favor, and fulfilled promises. Start preparing now, receive your fresh oil, align with God, and step boldly into the manifestation of everything He has been speaking over your life.
"Start Preparing” → “Fresh Oil” → “Manifestation” → “Spiritual Positioning
Father in the name of Jesus. I thank You for bringing us to this new season. We surrender our heart, our plans, and our steps to You. Prepare us, Lord, for everything You have in store. Fill us with Your Spirit, guide our actions, and align our minds with Your will. Let us walk in obedience, patience, and faith as we step into the promises You have spoken over our lives, all for Your glory. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
