The year ahead of us must be viewed through HIS ability, not ours, HIS promises and assurances, not simply our dreams and desires. I have been pondering on the phrase "He is able...". Look at these verses below. I find that turning them into a personal declaration and saying it aloud is helpful - e.g. "Lord, you are able to do what you have promised! Quicken a promise to me for my health struggles."
“He (Jesus) is able to save completely those who come to God through him, because he always lives to intercede for them.” Hebr.7:25
“I am not ashamed, because I know whom I have believed, and am convinced that he is able to guard what I have entrusted to him until that day.” 2 Timothy 1:12
“God is able to do what he has promised.” Romans 14:4
“Because he himself suffered when he was tempted, he is able to help those who are being tempted.” Hebr. 2:18
“He is able to make all grace abound to you, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need you will abound in every good work.” 2 Corinthians 9:8
“Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we can ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us…” Ephesians 3:20
“To him who is able to keep you from falling and to present you before his glorious presence, without fault and with great joy…” Jude 24
May you rest in his ability as the year unfolds - he has far more to show us about what he can do.
