Flight 2026 Is Clear For Takeoff

Leaving 2025. Entering 2026. We are advancing by divine clearance.

Brothers and Sisters, this is not just another sermon, it’s a departure announcement.

We are not just stumbling into a New Year; we are cleared for takeoff.

Look at your neighbor and say,

Fasten your seatbelt, because this season is shifting.

I don’t know about you, but I’m ready to fly.

Deuteronomy 1:6–8 (KJV)

The LORD our God spake unto us in Horeb, saying, Ye have dwelt long enough in this mount:

Turn you, and take your journey, and go to the mount of the Amorites, and unto all the places nigh thereunto, in the plain, in the hills, and in the vale, and in the south, and by the sea side, to the land of the Canaanites, and unto Lebanon, unto the great river, the river Euphrates.

In this text this word was spoken to Israel after forty years of wilderness wandering.

Understand that Horeb (Mount Sinai) was not a place of bondage, but instead it was a place of revelation.

This is the place where they received:

• The Law

• They heard God’s voice

• And received God’s direction and revelation.

But may I tell you that revelation without movement becomes stagnation.

God did not rebuke them for being sinful.

He told them, look you have stayed here long enough.

That’s powerful. They weren’t stuck because of rebellion.

They were stuck because of hesitation. Tell your neighbor, I’m not leaving 2025 because it was all bad, I’m leaving because it’s time.

Here is the message Alignment with 2025 and 2026

2025 was your Horeb year.

• You learned

• You healed

• You survived

• And You recalibrated

But now is God saying that you have stayed long enough at this mountain.

May I tell you that Flight 2026 is not about comfort. It’s about possession.

Tell your neighbor:

I’m not circling anymore.

I’m not going to be the same anymore.

I’m not going to put up with the foolishness anymore, I have been cleared for takeoff.

So, let’s look at this through the lens of a Flight prospective.

You Have Stayed Long Enough. First we have the Gate Announcement

Before a plane moves, there is always an announcement: they always start off by announcing that the:

This flight is now boarding.

God is announcing to you:

• You crying has been long enough

• Your explaining has been long enough.

• You have been waiting on some apologies long enough, that may never come.

• We have been replaying the same old scenarios, thinking about the past, holding on to some thought, waiting on him to return, crying over her to love you long enough. In other words you have been here long enough, 2025 can’t hold you any longer, baby you are cleared for take off.

If you have ever flown before, normally once we are boarded and seated there is always an announcement from stewardess and the captain and on the flight.

Normally you receive the do’s and the don’ts, and all of the safety tips in case of an emergency.

Well this flight is no different, and the spiritual stewardess announcement are something like this.

Welcome aboard flight 2026 we are prepared to takeoff. Please make sure you in a upright position with a positive attitude, and that your gratitude are securely locked in the upright position.

Please turn off all self-destructive devices. Turn off pity, turn off pride, turn off selfishness, and whatever you do please turn off self righteousness.

All negativity, hurt, and discouragement should be stored away at this time, never to be pulled out again.

Should we lose cabin pressure in year 2026, pull down some prayer, the captain says there might be a little turbulence, but don’t worry because he has landed many of thousands.

So, as we are taxiing to the runway, I noticed that the plane had to make some turns.

They had to turn before they could travel.

Here what I learned about what turning requires: Turning requires,

• New thinking

• New posture

• New obedience

• And a new way of thinking

In other words we cannot enter 2026 with 2025 controls.

We can’t handle 2026 newness with 2025 problems somebody ought to say: I’m turning my faith forward.

I’ve got a new attitude.

Tell your neighbor I’m not looking back, I’m looking forward.

I’m pressing towards the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

I can hear the Lord saying: See, (that means that you have to look). He says See (somebody say see) See, I Have Set the Land Before You. In other words the Runway Is Ready.

God says I’ve already set it before you.

The land was ready before they arrived.

The runway was built before the plane moved.

I know that it’s been a long time, but you’re not late.
