222| Are New Year's Resolutions Even Biblical? 3 Prophetic Insights for Christian Healing Goals

New Year's resolutions can feel spiritual — but they often create pressure instead of healing.

In this solo HEAR episode, Heather challenges the way Christians approach New Year goals and reframes them through a biblical, Spirit-led lens. Rather than resolving to "do better," she invites listeners to hear God first — so growth flows from healing, not striving.

This episode gently confronts the spiritual weight of the promises we make, explains why double-minded obedience leads to burnout, and offers a better framework rooted in hearing God's voice and praying continually for empowerment.

This episode is for you if you love God but feel tired of starting over every January, setting good goals that don't stick, or carrying quiet guilt when resolutions fall apart.

You'll gain:

• Clarity on whether New Year's resolutions are actually biblical

• Insight into how resolutions can become unintentional spiritual covenants

• A Spirit-led framework for healing before growth

• Practical guidance for hearing God's voice for your goals

• Freedom from pressure-driven change and striving

Scripture, Prayer, and Declaration:
Scripture: Matthew 5:37; James 1:8; 2 Corinthians 12:9
Prayer: God, I release every promise I made out of pressure. Heal what needs healing so Your plan can grow fruit in my life.
Declaration: I hear God clearly, walk in alignment, and grow by His power — not my own.
