A Year to Reclaim What Was Lost

Have you ever sensed that God is not finished with something you thought was gone?

Welcome to 2026. As we step into this year together, we do so with a deep conviction: God is calling us to RECLAIM. This is not a new theme pulled from ambition or optimism—it is a response to what we believe God has been speaking over our church across seasons.

In 2024, we as a church prepared the way for the Lord. In 2025, we witnessed a harvest of new believers. Now, in 2026, God is calling us to retrieve what has been lost, restore what has been damaged, and reclaim what belongs to Him.

To reclaim means to recover something once possessed. It also means to bring wasteland back under cultivation. That mirrors Joel 2, where God speaks to land stripped bare and promises renewal: “Do not be afraid… the pastures in the wilderness are becoming green” (Joel 2:22).

Reclaim is intentional. God is not calling us to maintain what we have. He is calling us to move forward with faith and courage. Joel reminds us that what looks devastated is not beyond God’s restoring power. He promises fruitfulness, provision, and repayment for what was lost.

This vision is not about going backward. It’s about moving forward with purpose. God restores so His people can thrive again—spiritually, relationally, and missionally.

Let this settle in you today: God is not done. This is a year to reclaim.

Prayer

Lord, thank You for Your faithfulness across seasons. Give me faith to believe for restoration in the places that feel lost or forgotten. Teach me to partner with Your purpose this year. Amen.
