š 2025 was the year of the snake.
Not just symbolically, but spiritually.
The snake has always had one assignment:
Not to destroy you outright, but to confuse your perception of God, so you forget WHO YOU ARE and WHO GOD IS.
That was the first tactic in the garden, and not much has changed since.
The serpent didnāt tell Eve she wasnāt created by God.
He didnāt deny abundance existed.
He simply whispered doubt into her certainty and wholeness with His presence.
āDid God really sayā¦?ā (Genesis 3:1)
And with that single question, her identity fractured.
Her Trust in Her Creator fractured.
Abundance became suspicious instead of secure in His garden of Eden.
And this is exactly what 2025 was about for many women I walk with.
Not lack. Not failure. Not loss of calling.
But identity interference and confusion.
You were productive, but divided in your efforts.
Successful, but in restless pursuit without His peace.
Faith-filled, but internally negotiating with God on more behavior modification instead of walking with Him in obedience produced from transformation.
You didnāt lose your calling. But you felt the effects of the spiritual battle because you lost clarity and started to doubt the God who declares you victorious through Him šš»
And when Godās character gets blurred, obedience starts to feel risky instead of relational.
You start to seek success in strategy, in external environments, in āmore effortā and ādoing betterā from a state of strivingā¦.
Instead of from secured surrender.
The snake came after me this year.
2025 stripped me. The serpent tried to break me. He whispered his lies wrapped in his cunning use of distorted scripture and a lifetime of never feeling āenough.ā
But this year refined my discernment.
It burned off performance.
It exposed every place I was functioning instead of belonging to the Creator who Created Me.
And honestly?
Iām grateful.
Because deception only works when something inside us is still willing to bargain.
And Iāve laid all my bargaining chips at His cross.
How about you?
2026 is not the year of the snake.
Itās the year of the FIRE HORSE š„
Biblically, the horse represents strength, readiness, movement, and battle posture.
Not panic or chaos.
Forward momentum with authority and controlled surrender.
āDo you give the horse its strength or clothe its neck with a flowing mane?ā (Job 39:19)
The horse doesnāt debate its direction.
It responds to command and MOVES with purpose accordingly.
It runs because it was created to run with intention.
And thatās the shift š«°
2026 is not about overthinking your capacity to run or re-explaining your ability to blaze to people who donāt recognize it.
Itās not about waiting until you feel āready to move.ā
Itās about running the race that has been set before you, and turning your bridled alignment into action, full-steam ahead.
This is the year where clarity turns into pace with His peace.
Where formation turns into sustainable movement.
Where obedience stops being theoretical or questionable, and becomes embodied.
No more circling a mountain youāre unsure of you can climb or negotiating with fear deceiving as wisdom.
No more shrinking your voice to keep peace with confusion or those who canāt keep up.
You didnāt survive 2025 just to tiptoe into 2026.
You were refined so you could RUN š“
And tomorrow?
We donāt set intentions. Resolutions.
We donāt pick aesthetic āwords of the yearā that will be discarded by March.
We donāt manifest outcomes, deceived by our lack of surrender to the Master who holds it all.
We move in obedience to Him.
Full steam. Eyes forward. Spirit anchored.
Hands steady. Ready to jump every obstacle.
Weāve been training for this.
Positioned, for such a time as this.
If you feel that pull in your chestā¦
Your breath picking up with a quiet readiness that doesnāt need applause or someone to bet on youā¦
Because you already know youāve been given a flowing mane.
Itās time to feel the wind.
This next year isnāt about becoming someone new. Itās about finally moving as WHO YOU ALREADY ARE with the unstoppable force who created you to crush the deceiver and blaze through the fire š„
Full steam ahead.
