Ps Sean begins the new year with the first of a three part series looking at 'God of My Yesterday, Today & Tomorrow'. This first part looks at God of My Yesterday. Sean uses scriptures from Hebrews 13:8 and Revelation 1:8 to illustrate how God is the same yesterday , today and tomorrow. He is the Alpha and the Omega, He has an all consuming view of time which we tend to see as a linear progression.

Ps Sean speaks about how our yesterdays do not dictate our future, how living in the past can lead to robbing us of our future, how we need to cut away from the past in order to live in God's richness by faith. In Philippians 3:13-14, Paul speaks about "pressing onward toward the prize God has for him".....but he is in a prion cell whilst writing this, shackled! He was not holding on to the past, he was pressing on towards God. Often the main things holding us back are ourselves or others if we allow them to. Learning to hand out the past to God is a journey of trusting God with faith. Sean ends with three key points...

• God can forgive yesterdays failures (Isaiah 43:25, Hebrews 8:12, Psalm 103:12, 1 John 1:9, Romans 8:1)
• God can heal yesterdays hurts (Psalm 34;18, Luke 4:18 - Jesus' mandate was to set the oppressed free!)
• God can deliver us from yesterdays disappointments (Joel 2:25)

Psalm 77:12 is what we need to meditate on (NIV) "I will consider all your works and meditate on all your mighty deeds.” Let us walk in the fullness of strength God has for us as we position ourselves for 2025.
