2026: Your Season of Flourish
A New Year Message from the President, PHGM Int’l
Happy New Year, and welcome to 2026.
As we step into this new year, I bring you warm greetings on behalf of the leadership team of Praise of His Glory Ministry. I congratulate you—because your presence in 2026 is not ordinary. You are here because the Lord, by His grace and mercy, sustained you and brought you safely into this new season.
Many started the previous year with hopes and plans but did not arrive at this point. You did. That alone tells us that God still has purpose, intention, and assignment for your life. Therefore, we rejoice together, and with confidence, I declare: 2026 is your year of flourishing.
From Blossoming to Flourishing: A Divine Shift
To understand what God is saying for this year, it is important to distinguish between blossoming and flourishing.
Blossoming is a stage. It is visible, exciting, and full of promise. Flowers appear, fragrance is released, and beauty is evident. Blossoming often signals potential, hope, and the beginning of something good. However, blossoming is temporary and transitional. Not everything that blossoms matures. Not everything that looks promising endures.
Flourishing, on the other hand, is not a moment—it is a state of being. It speaks of depth, rootedness, continuity, and sustained productivity. When something flourishes, it survives seasons, withstands pressure, and continues to produce fruit over time. Flourishing is growth that lasts.
In 2026, God is not merely inviting us into another moment of blossoming. He is moving us into a state of flourishing—where progress is consistent, fruitfulness is preserved, and increase is sustained.
To explain how this state is established, God impressed upon my heart five foundational dimensions captured in the word STATE. These dimensions describe how God will work in your life throughout 2026.
S – Sustenance: The Foundation That Keeps You Standing
Flourishing always begins with sustenance. Without sustenance, even the most gifted and promising life will eventually collapse.
The Lord declares in Isaiah 46:4:
“Even to your old age and gray hairs I am He;
I am He who will sustain you.
I have made you, and I will carry you;
I will sustain you and I will rescue you.”
This scripture reveals that God does not merely create and withdraw. He creates, carries, sustains, and rescues. Sustenance is God’s ongoing commitment to uphold what He has initiated.
When God sustains a person, life does not depend solely on human strength, intelligence, or connections. It rests on divine backing.
When God sustains you, you never run out of:
Support
God ensures that you are not isolated under responsibility. He provides spiritual covering, strategic relationships, timely counsel, and help when pressure increases. In 2026, you will not carry your burdens alone.
Supply
Sustenance guarantees provision for purpose. God supplies resources, wisdom, opportunities, and grace appropriate for each season. You may not always have excess, but you will never lack what is necessary to move forward.
Safety
What God sustains, He preserves. Divine sustenance keeps you from unseen dangers, destructive decisions, and unnecessary losses. In 2026, you will be kept—not by chance, but by God’s faithful hand.
Strength
Sustenance renews capacity. Even when life demands more from you, God will renew your strength. You will not collapse under pressure or burn out under responsibility.
In 2026, God Himself will be your sustainer.
T – Thriving: Moving Beyond Survival into Fruitfulness
The second dimension of flourishing is thriving.
Thriving means life moves beyond survival. It is the transition from merely coping to producing meaningful results.
The Bible says in Psalm 1:3:
“That person is like a tree planted by streams of water,
which yields its fruit in season
and whose leaf does not wither—
whatever they do prospers.”
Thriving is the result of correct positioning. The tree thrives not because conditions are perfect, but because its source is secure. In 2026, God will align you spiritually, mentally, and practically so that your efforts yield results.
Thriving also speaks of consistency. This will not be a year of isolated breakthroughs followed by stagnation. God will establish patterns of productivity in your life. Your work will show evidence. Your progress will be visible.
Thriving is quiet proof that God is helping you. In 2026, your life will bear that proof.
A – Attractiveness: When God Restores Beauty, Value, and Influence
The third dimension of flourishing is Attractiveness.
Attractiveness, in the context of God’s work, goes far beyond physical appearance or outward appeal. Biblical attractiveness speaks of restored value, renewed dignity, and divine favour that causes a person’s life, work, and presence to draw positive attention. It is the outcome of God’s beauty resting upon what was once broken, overlooked, or diminished.
The Word of God declares in Isaiah 61:3 that He gives beauty for ashes. Ashes symbolise seasons of loss, failure, disappointment, rejection, shame, and painful experiences—moments that strip people of confidence and make life feel undesirable or unattractive. Many people carry hidden ashes: abandoned dreams, stalled visions, damaged reputations, or delayed promises.
In 2026, God is not merely removing ashes; He is actively replacing them with His beauty.
When God beautifies a life, that life begins to command attention without striving. Your ideas begin to carry weight. Your voice gains credibility. Your work begins to attract favour. Doors begin to open not because you are pushing, but because God’s beauty is resting upon what you do.
This attractiveness will reflect across every dimension of your life:
- Your businesses and professional efforts will become appealing to the right people.
- Your children and family life will reflect order, grace, and distinction.
- Your ideas and innovations will gain relevance and acceptance.
- Your ministry and service will become a point of reference that draws others to inquire about your God.
Just as a healthy, green plant stands out in the midst of a dry and barren environment, your life will visibly stand out in 2026. God’s beauty will make the difference clear. People will not only see the results—they will sense the presence of God upon you.
This year, you will not struggle for recognition. Divine attractiveness will speak on your behalf.
T – Tenacity: The Grace to Remain Rooted, Steady, and Unmoved
The fourth dimension of flourishing is Tenacity.
Tenacity is the spiritual strength to remain firmly positioned in God’s will despite pressure, delay, opposition, or fatigue. Many people begin journeys with enthusiasm but do not finish because they lack endurance. Flourishing, however, requires staying power.
The Apostle Paul instructs us in 1 Corinthians 15:58 to be steadfast and immovable. This is not passive resilience—it is active commitment rooted in conviction. Tenacity is what enables a person to remain faithful when results are slow, when challenges arise, or when alternatives appear more convenient.
In 2026, God will strengthen your inner resolve. You will not be easily shaken by circumstances, discouraged by setbacks, or distracted by competing voices. Where others give up, you will remain. Where others compromise, you will stand firm.
Tenacity will manifest in several ways:
- You will remain committed to your calling, even when it stretches you.
- You will stay focused on your God-given path, even when shortcuts appear.
- You will not abandon assignments, careers, or ministries that God has clearly placed you in.
- You will maintain integrity and consistency, even under pressure.
Tenacity ensures that your flourishing is not short-lived. It protects you from quitting prematurely and from drifting into places God has not ordained for you. In 2026, you will not be moved by fear, fatigue, or frustration. God Himself will anchor you.
This year, your stability will become one of your greatest testimonies.
E – Enlargement: Expansion That Is Intentional, Sustainable, and God-Directed
The final dimension of flourishing is Enlargement.
Enlargement is God’s invitation to grow beyond your current boundaries—spiritually, mentally, professionally, and territorially. However, biblical enlargement is not reckless expansion; it is intentional growth supported by divine preparation.
In Isaiah 54:2–3, God commands His people to enlarge their tents, stretch their curtains, lengthen their cords, and strengthen their stakes. This sequence is significant. God prepares capacity before releasing increase. He reinforces foundations before allowing expansion.
In 2026, God will enlarge you in ways that are both visible and internal:
- Your thinking will be enlarged—you will see beyond previous limitations.
- Your capacity will be enlarged—you will handle more without being overwhelmed.
- Your influence will be enlarged—your reach will extend further than before.
- Your opportunities will be enlarged—new doors, territories, and platforms will open.
For those in business, enlargement will appear as growth, scalability, and new markets. For those in careers, it will appear as advancement, promotion, and increased responsibility. For those in ministry, it will appear as expanded impact, deeper reach, and greater effectiveness.
Importantly, this enlargement will not cost you peace, balance, or identity. God will not grow you faster than He strengthens you. You will expand without losing stability. You will increase without confusion. You will grow without breaking.
In 2026, God will enlarge your coast—and you will be ready for it.
Final Charge and Declaration
As you step fully into 2026, I want you to carry this truth with you: God has not brought you this far to abandon you midway. This year is not a continuation of struggle, uncertainty, or inconsistency. It is a divinely appointed season of establishment—a year in which God settles you into a state of flourishing.
The same God who brought you into this year will sustain you daily. You will not walk alone, you will not walk blindly, and you will not walk without provision. His hand will uphold you, His wisdom will guide you, and His presence will surround you in every season.
In 2026, you will thrive and not merely survive. Your efforts will yield results. Your labour will produce fruit. What you commit your hands to will carry the mark of divine help, and progress will no longer be accidental but consistent.
The Lord will clothe you with His beauty. He will restore value to areas that once carried disappointment, and He will cause your life to reflect His glory. You will stand out for the right reasons. Favour will speak on your behalf, and opportunities will respond to God’s hand upon you.
You will remain steadfast and unmoved. When challenges arise, you will not be shaken. When delays appear, you will not lose heart. When pressure increases, your resolve will be strengthened. You will stay firmly planted in God’s will, faithful to your calling, and consistent in your obedience.
The Lord will also enlarge your coast. He will stretch your capacity, expand your influence, and increase your reach. Growth will come without confusion. Increase will come without loss of peace. Expansion will come with stability, clarity, and strength.
As you walk through this year, may the Lord order your steps, guard your heart, and establish the work of your hands. May your home be filled with peace, your endeavours crowned with success, and your testimony strengthened by visible evidence of God’s faithfulness.
Once again, Happy New Year to you and your family. On behalf of Praise of His Glory Ministry, I bless you as you go forward into 2026.
Go forth and flourish—sustained by God, strengthened by His grace, and established for His glory.
In the mighty name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.
