As 2026 begins, Dianna Hobbs, founder of Empowering Everyday Women, is urging believers to approach the new year with renewed focus, spiritual intentionality, and a commitment to honoring God in all areas of life, including how they steward their resources.
In a New Year message shared with supporters and readers, Hobbs described 2026 as a season marked by “advancement, elevation, influence, increase, and expansion” for those who remain aligned with God’s will. She framed the year as one of transition, emphasizing that spiritual preparation, rather than haste or distraction, will be essential for navigating what lies ahead.
“This is not a year to move casually,” Hobbs said in the message. “It is a year to move with purpose.”
Hobbs’ message centers on the importance of focus at a time when many feel overwhelmed by cultural noise, uncertainty, and competing demands. She warned that distraction remains one of the most significant threats to spiritual growth and personal clarity, urging believers to be deliberate about how they spend their time, energy, and attention.
According to Hobbs, 2026 will bring opportunities that require readiness and discernment, including unfinished assignments reaching completion, new territory opening for growth, restored relationships, and renewed expressions of God’s mercy.
Her remarks reflect a broader theme that has become increasingly prominent across faith communities: the need for intentional living in a rapidly shifting world.
A central element of Hobbs’ New Year emphasis is the biblical principle of FirstFruits, which encourages believers to honor God at the start of the year by giving intentionally and prayerfully.
“FirstFruits is about alignment,” Hobbs explained. “It is a declaration that God comes first, before outcomes are seen and before doors open.”
Through Empowering Everyday Women, Hobbs and her team have released a FirstFruits Guide designed to help readers understand the biblical foundation of the practice, reflect prayerfully, and give without pressure or compulsion. The guide includes Scripture-based teaching, a declaration for the year, and a prayer to accompany giving.
Founded to strengthen faith and provide encouragement grounded in biblical truth, Empowering Everyday Women continues to expand its reach through digital media, devotionals, and practical ministry initiatives. Hobbs’ New Year message aligns with the organization’s broader mission to help believers live with purpose and spiritual clarity.
As the year unfolds, Hobbs encouraged readers to seek God’s direction intentionally and respond in faith.
“Beginning the year with honor positions us to move forward with peace and confidence,” she said.
The FirstFruits Guide and additional resources are available through Empowering Everyday Women’s official website. For updates, news, and inspiration from Dianna Hobbs, sign up for her newsletter here.
