Hollywood celebrities, popular pastors and faith leaders shared their reflections and messages of encouragement for the new year as they said goodbye to 2019.

Roma Downey shared a quote from her company Light Workers for the new year to remind everyone of the immeasurable love of God.

“The thing about God’s love is it doesn’t come earned. There is nothing we can do as humans to increase God’s love for us, nor is there anything we can do to lessen His love for us,”

Pastor Joel Osteen of Lakewood Church in Houston, Texas, who’s known for his inspirational sermons kicked off the new year with a “2020 blessing.”

“You are blessed, prosperous, redeemed, forgiven, talented, creative, disciplined, focused, confident, secure, equipped, empowered, anointed, accepted, approved, not average, not mediocre, you are a child of the most high God,”

DeVon Franklin who’s behind the films “Breakthrough” and “Miracles From Heaven,” issued a challenge for his followers to dream about where they will be by this time next year.

“#bythistimenextyear you will be healthier, richer, more peaceful, saved, promoted, in love, out of debt, closer to God, closer to your family, stronger in your marriage (for some of you, you will be married by this time next year!). I speak life over your life! Now it’s time for you to speak life over your own!” he declared.
