No Fix in 2026: God Is in the Mix

Zechariah 4:1–7 (NIV)

Zechariah 4 lampstand symbolizing Spirit-led flow

"Not by might nor by power, but by my Spirit,’ says the Lord Almighty." – Zechariah 4:6

Get in the mix in 2026. The vision given to Zechariah reveals a divine mixture: a solid gold lampstand, a bowl at the top, seven lamps with channels for oil, and two olive trees standing faithfully on either side. At first glance, the elements may seem mismatched, but God declares that victory does not come through human effort, it comes by the Spirit of the Lord Almighty.

Mountains level before Zerubbabel. The capstone is brought forth with shouts of blessing. This is a prophetic invitation for 2026: move from observation into participation. Enter life fully through partnership with the Holy Spirit tapping supernatural power, spiritual fruit, divine gifts, and collaborative flow. God is in the mix.

Firstly: Intentions

Clarity of intention prevents confusion. Mix-ups happen when desires are vague. Sit with yourself and hold a sacred meeting about what you truly desire. The psalmist declares, “One thing have I desired of the Lord, that will I seek after.” When you pray, believe you receive, and it shall come to pass. God discerns not only actions, but the intentions of the heart.

Intentions differ from resolutions. Intentions clarify desire, release control, and trust God to provide what is best at the appointed time or sooner. Examine the why behind your actions: thoughts (Thinking), words (Theology), and behaviors (Treatment). Let go of living for approval. Get in the mix with clear, Spirit-aligned intentions.

Secondly: Ingredients

Once intentions are set, identify your ingredients. These are your qualities, virtues, strengths, gifts, talents, skills, and abilities. Everything required already resides within you. There are no shortcuts, knockoffs, or substitutes for authenticity.

People notice when ingredients change. “This doesn’t taste like it used to.” Bring your full self to the table. Declare, “I recognize my ingredients. I know what I bring to this mix.” In the vision, the olive trees supply oil continuously fueling the lamps without human striving. Align your thoughts, words, and actions with your true ingredients.

Thirdly: Integration

Integration is where intentions and ingredients meet the Spirit’s power. The vision reveals channels constant flow, no effort, no fixing. God completes the work. Mountains fall. Capstones rise. Blessings echo.

Some combinations won’t make sense to the mind, but trust that God is in the mix. Move from observer to participant in your one life to live. The Holy Spirit offers warnings, instructions, and confirmations. Tap the fruit of the Spirit for character, the gifts of the Spirit for power, and divine partnership for true identity humanity blended with divinity.

Conclusion

Enter 2026 by the Spirit: set clear intentions (Thinking), bring authentic ingredients (Theology), and integrate fully (Treatment). Not by might nor by power, but by the Spirit, mountains are removed and abundant, eternal life flows.

Declare it and live it—God is in the mix.

No Fix in 2026:
1. Do not try to fix me.
2. Do not try to fix it.
3. Do not try to get a fix.

📖 Reflection: Where might you be striving to fix what the Spirit is inviting you to trust and integrate?

💡 Action Step: Write down one clear intention for 2026, name your authentic ingredients, and consciously invite the Holy Spirit into the integration.

Refocus Your Faith: How to Overcome Distraction, Disappointment, and Discouragement

Refocus Your Faith: How to Overcome Distraction, Disappointment, and Discouragement "For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision has any value. The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love." Galatians 5:6 (KSB) With everything going on around us, it's easy to feel lost. Distractions come quickly, disappointments pile up, and discouragement sneaks in. We all face these moments. But even when we get off track, there is a way back and that path is through our faith, principles, and core values. When you live your life anchored in principles, it gives you a compass for when the road gets unclear. Knowing your vision, your mission, and your core values makes it easier to realign when life feels out of control. But if you don’t know who you are, how can you get back to being your best self? If you don’t know what you stand on, what can you stand up on after a fall? Clarity of purpose keeps you ...

Hidden Treasure: You Are a Vessel, Not Just an Instrument

I AM Not an Instrument. I AM a Vessel “But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.” – 2 Corinthians 4:7 (KSB) Hidden in Plain Sight The image that Paul presents in 2 Corinthians 4 is that of a treasure hidden within an earthen vessel. In the Old Testament, people didn’t have locks, alarm systems, or cameras to protect their valuables. Instead, their belongings were often left exposed, making them vulnerable to thieves and robbers. To safeguard their most valuable treasures, they would hide them in jars of clay—earthen vessels—placing them in plain sight. A thief or robber would never think to look there because it wasn’t an obvious hiding place. Likewise, God has placed something valuable inside of you—a treasure of great worth. Yet, people often fail to see it. You may be right in front of them, but they don’t recognize your gifts, skills, talents, anointing, abilities, or sensitivities. You are hidden in plain sight bec...

Universe Means One Thing: Love

Universe Means One Thing: Love "For all the law is fulfilled in this one word, love: Love your neighbor as yourself." Galatians 5:14 (KSB) Sometimes, the word “universe” can feel mysterious even spooky to some. Others think it's irreverent or sacrilegious when used in spiritual conversations. But what if we redefined it? What if “universe” simply meant love? What if it meant God, since God is love? When we say, “the universe,” we can think of it as pointing to one word love. Just one word. The entire Bible, composed of 66 books and written by over 40 different authors, ultimately speaks to one central theme: love. From beginning to end, this divine book points us toward loving God, loving ourselves, and loving others. In the Old Testament, God's people had 636 laws civil, ceremonial, and moral. They guided everything from relationships to religious festivals. But then Jesus came and said, “Let me make this simple Love God. Love yourself. L...
