As the world prepares for the new year 2023, the District Superintendent, Christ Apostolic Church, Peaceland District, Odi-Olowo Districts' Coordinating Council (DCC), Lagos, Pastor F. A. Oke has urged everyone not to allow previous setbacks to determine their future and destiny in 2023.
Pastor Oke stated this in his piece entitled "Forged Ahead" posted on his verified Facebook account.
In his words; "resolutions are meant to be a way for you to improve yourself and get more out of life, but that does not mean they will always work out. You should realise that yesterday was an experience, today is an experiment and tomorrow is an expectation. You can get the best out of life by applying your experience to your experiments so as to get the desired result.
"Know who you are, improve and empower yourself, determine to make change and make yourself a brand. It is not always easy to achieve great things, but with God on your side all things are possible. Make Him your priority. Do your best and leave the rest to His care, for He cares for those leaning on Him.
"Friends, from this morning, the Lord will put shoes of jubilation in your legs and the remaining days of the year will not consume you and yours in Jesus' Name."
