To function effectively in “The Year of the Greater Light” here are more things you must do. Remember, instructions are for your life. This is God’s Word to you –

1. Give Yourself to the Ministry of the Word (1 Peter 2:2): Spiritual growth comes by the Word. The Word of God is food for our Spirit therefore in this year we must give serious consideration to the Word of God (Joshua 1:8). In this Year of the Greater Light, the Word of God is the only thing that can change your state in life. The word of God has transforming power (2 Corinthians 3:18). When you spend time studying, listening and meditating on the Word of God over a period of time, your attitude, mindset, and belief systems will change. You’ll suddenly realize that you are different and you have become a better person. As you give yourself to the Word in 2010, it will grow and prevail in every area of your life producing in you what it talks about (Acts 19:20). The Word of God is the life in you, the very essence of your existence. (Proverbs 4:20 – 22). Know your prayer and meditation time in 2010. Make your meditation time purposeful and consistent.

2. Pray In Tongues Consistently (1 Corinthians 14:4): One of the signs that follow the new creation is speaking in other tongues. You can build up and improve every area of your life by speaking in tongues. When you pray in other tongues, your spirit is alert and fine-tuned to the things of the Spirit. Praying in tongues exposes your spirit to the mature things of the spirit and causes you to put away childish things. This means that for you to experience serious spiritual growth, you must speak in tongues consistently. The Bible says that when you pray in other tongues, you are building yourself like an edifice “But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost” (Jude 1:20). Praying in tongues helps your spirit to be sensitive to the realities of the kingdom. Praying in other tongues also conditions your spirit to receive from God. It is therefore important that we pray in other tongues in the year 2010 like never before (Ephesians 6:18). Speaking in tongues was one of the secrets to apostle Paul’s success, that’s why he declared to the whole church, “I thank my God I speak in tongues more than ye all” Speaking in tongues is not optional for the child of God for your success this year is dependent on your walk with the Spirit.

3. Get Involved In The House of God (Ephesians 4:11 – 16): Get involved in the house of God, it helps you express the gifts of God inside you. It helps you to find your place and standout as a blessing to the Church and your world at large (John 5:33 – 35). You can be involved in the activity groups in the church. Always volunteer to help in the house of God.
